Kingdom Hearts Forward Unto Dawn Chapter 1: The Protector
The long flame haired teen jolted awake in a cold sweat and for a minute he didn't remember where he was. Then he felt the sand under his fingers and he remembered where he was now. He was on Destiny Islands. He looked up and was momentarily blinded by the light of the sun and he covered his eyes and slowly sat up bringing one knee up to his chest as he looked out to sea in thought. After 10 minutes passed he finally sighed heavily and hauled himself up. He closed his eyes yet he could not remember. He still couldn't remember. Let's see…my name is Zeke, I have a twin sister named Yuna. We live together here with my uncle Amos and…and… And he could not remember anything beyond that. Zeke sighed and flame haired teen looked around before he spotted a small rock pool and he walked over and looked at his reflection. He had long flame red hair tied in a ponytail and wore a red sleeveless vest, black orange fingerless gloves, long red and orange long sleeve pants with two black belts in a criss cross shape as well as red and black sneakers. He sighed and placed his hands in his pockets and began making his way around the island and back towards the docks so he could return to the town.
As he was walking he began to notice that storm clouds were rolling in and blotting out the sky. Realizing that he might end up stuck on the island Zeke doubled his pace and broke into a run. The moment he was on the wooden walkway he immediately threw himself onto the nearest raft and quickly untied it from the post and began rapidly rowing back toward the town. He could already feel the ice cold rain pour down and sting his skin already soaking him to the bone but he finally managed to get to the main dock and practically threw himself onto the dock and quickly secured the raft ignoring the fact that he was shivering violently from being in the ice cold rain for so long with nothing but long sleeve pants and a sleeveless vest. His now visibly wet long hair was plastered to his skull and obscured his vision somewhat as he ran down the pathway to his house.
After a few minutes he spotted a tall blue and orange structure with two tall square chimneys rising out and two large square windows and a massive front yard and back yard. He sighed to himself and quickly ran through the door closing it shut behind him with a sigh of relief and turned around and was surprised to see a note on the wall. He walked closer and leaned in. "Zeke. You're probably home by now and wondering where your sister and I have gone off to. Don't worry I'm off on another business trip with your sister. I'm not sure how long we'll be but we'll be home soon. Amos. PS: As I said before I cannot tell you where we are and please refrain from trying to find us if you can. We really can't have you know exactly what this trip is about, just know that one day we'll tell you… Zeke glared at the note before ripping it off the wall and crumbling it into a ball and tossing it into the trash along with the rest of the pile. "Fucking typical of you two"… Zeke growled darkly under his breath. "Absolutely fucking typical…when are you two not away? Stupid question you're almost never home. It's a wonder I haven't cracked or ran away because of that". Zeke continued to growl darkly to himself and walked up stairs and quickly took a shower and dried himself off before walking into the kitchen in the exact same attire as before only he allowed his hair down which almost went passed his neck. He walked into the kitchen and warmed up the macaroni and cheese and sat down on the large leather couch and flicked on the even larger TV in front of him and flicked it through the channels until he came to a show about possible alien theories. He leaned into his seat and watched for a few minutes before losing interest and stood up with his hands in his pockets and walked and looked out the large window.
How many times had his uncle left on his "business" trips with his sister, with neither of them stating the reason and denying him the chance to come on any of said trips? It just continually mounted onto his already building frustration. Sometimes if he could he wanted to leave. "I hate it when they think they can just leave me like this and not tell me anything. Especially Yuna. We're twins and she never tells me anything yet she makes me tell her everything…I think I'm starting to lose trust in her". Zeke muttered and let lose a deep sigh… and jolted back when he saw his breath come out in steam. "What the...what is this"? Zeke muttered to himself and once again breather out and saw his breath turn into steam. He jerked away from the window and for the first time noticed how cold it was in the house. "The fuck is going on"? Zeke muttered looking around a little worried. Suddenly he heard what sounded like the swish of a cloak and Zeke instantly whipped around. But saw nothing there…
Now he was starting to get a little freaked out and slowly backed up against the window. Something very weird was going on. And it was almost as if something was here in the house with him…Zeke suddenly shook his head and slid down the wall. He shouldn't think about that. God why is it so cold in here? Zeke thought to himself. "Zeke…Zeke"… Zeke jumped up in surprise at the sound of the serpentine voice whispering his name. He looked around visibly pale. He slowly turned around and there in front of him was a creature that made his blood turn to ice. Standing or rather floating in front of him was a hooded figure in a pitch black cloak. In his hands he held two strange weapons. They both had the appearance of large keys yet they also looked like scythes with long curved blades. The one in its left hand had a blood red color with a strange angled hand guard that looked like a wing pad (Think the guard hilt for the keyblade Ends of the Earth) It had a long segmented shaft with a large sphere that looked like a demon's eye with a yellow background and a black slitted iris, with two spikes on each side and a red shell of sorts. The one in its right hand and the same hand guard as the one in its left but a steel grey with a black shaft with the same eye on the shaft. The cloaked figure removed its hood revealing its face. Zeke could only stare. The creatures face was pitch black with no nose or mouth and two glowing yellow orbs. Its hair was made up of long shadowy strands made up into a short Mohawk. It looked at Zeke for a minute, tilting its head before it suddenly lunged at Zeke.
Time seemed to slow down as the creature slowly approached spreading its strange swords out and slowly bringing them down. Zeke brought his right arm in defense but to his surprise a light began to form and from that light came a key shaped sword. It had an orange and red color scheme, the teeth had the shape of a shield of flame, and the hilt was in the shape of leaping flames. The shaft was a hick column with a smaller one in the center with two orange flames on the inside it a chain with a token in the shape of a sun. The creature looked at him for a minute before removing its own keys and stared at him before suddenly a portal opened around him and Zeke. "Wh-what's going on? Who…who are you"? The creature looked at him before it actually smiled as Zeke's vision began to fade. "I am…the protector".
