I don't own Sailor Moon or Kingdom Hearts.
That night Jessica had a strange dream. She was standing on a stained glass platform that had a picture of her, Terra, Ventus, and Aqua in the center. Surrounding them were ten circles with pictures of nine girls and one guy inside them.
The first girl had short blue hair, and blue eyes. The next girl had long black hair, and purple eyes. The next girl had brown hair pulled up in a pony tail, and green eyes. The next girl had long blond hair, blue eyes, and a red bow. The next girl had long dark green hair with a bun on the back of her head, and purple eyes. The next girl had short blond hair, and blue eyes. The next girl had wavy green hair, with blue eyes. The next girl had shoulder length black hair, and purple eyes. The last girl had pink hair that was styled like her own hair, and red eyes. The guy had black hair, a white mask, and a top hat.
The girl with pink hair from the picture appeared, though she looked older. She walked up to Jessica. "Who are you?" Jessica asked. "I'm Usagi Small Lady Serenity, queen of Silver Millenium. In your previous life I was your daughter." The girl replied. "Start making sense. Your not my daughter. I don't even have a daughter." Jessica said. "Not in this life, but in your life before this one." Usagi explained. "So your saying that I was reborn into this life? You know what, never mind this is just a really weird dream." Jessica huffed. "I can assure you this is not a dream. You will know what I'm saying is true when Luna tells you. You need to find your guardians. Not all of them will look like they did in your previous life. Please remember who you are soon, Sailor Moon." Usagi pleaded as she faded.
Jessica woke up, got dressed, and went into the room where Aqua and Terra were going to take their Mark of Mastery exams in. Master Eraquas, Terra, Aqua and Ventus were already there. Wait, Ven was there? That can't be right. That hopeless sleepyhead was always the last person to get up. "Look who decided to wake up. I tried to wake you, but you were in a deep sleep. Not even the bucket of water trick woke you up." Terra laughed. "You poured water on my head!?" Jessica shouted. Suddenly Terra looked serious.
Jessica put her fists up ready to make him pay, but was stopped by a hand on her shoulder. She turned around and there was Xeahnort. Jessica"s face turned red from embarrassment "M-Master Xeahnort, I didn't see you there." She stammered. Xeahnort simply walked over to Master Eraquas and chatted with him a few minutes, before walking over to one of the chairs and took a seat. "Everyone take your places." Master Eraquas ordered. Terra and Aqua stood in the middle of the room, while Jessica and Ventus stood at the edge of the room. Master Eraquas walked over to Terra and Aqua. "Today you will be examined for the Mark of Mastery. Not one but two of the keyblades chosen stand here as candidates. This is not a competition, nor a battle for supremacy. Not a test of will, but a test of heart. Both of you may prevail, or neither, but I am sure our guest, Master Xeahnort, did not come all this way to see our youngest prospects in years fall short of the mark. I trust you are ready." Master Eraquas said. "Yes." Terra and Aqua both replied confidently. Master Eraquas summoned his keyblade. "Then let the examination begin." He said.
Master Eraquas made orbs of light appear. Suddenly darkness surrounded the orbs. Terra and Aqua started destroying the orbs. One of the orbs went to Ventus and Jessica. "Ven, Jess!" Terra and Aqua shouted. Jessica and Ventus summoned their keyblades and started fighting the orbs. "Don't worry about us, you two focus on the exam!" Ventus exclaimed. "But Ven, your in danger here! Go take Jessica and wait in your room." Aqua ordered. "No way! I've been looking forward to this, seeing you two become masters! I'm not going to miss it now!" Ven shouted back. "Me too! I may not have known you guys as long as Ven, but your still my friends!" Jessica agreed.
"They can take care of themselves. They have been training just as hard as us." Terra assured Aqua. "Yeah!" Ventus agreed. "Stay sharp, guys!" Aqua called back.
This was it. Jessica's first real fight. She closed her eyes and she could feel where the light covered in darkness was. She slashed through one and destroyed it. She cast a fire spell on the next one. Suddenly without realizing what she was doing, she opened her eyes and shouted "Moon tiara boomerang!" She threw her keyblade at the remaining orbs that Aqua, Terra, and Ventus weren't fighting. Her keyblade bounced off of one and hit another until the orbs were destroyed. When they were destroyed, Jessica caught her keyblade. Terra, Aqua, Jessica and Ventus took their places again. "Where did you learn how to do that?" Ventus whispered. "I don't know." Jessica whispered back.
"That was unexpected, but one must keep a still heart even in the most trying of circumstances. It was an excellent test. One I chose to let unfold. Which brings us to your next trial. Now, Terra and Aqua, the two of you will face each other in combat. Remember, there are no winners, only truths, for when equal powers clash, their nature is revealed. Begin!" Master Eraquas ordered. Terra and Aqua started fighting. Terra's hand became covered in darkness. The fight continued.
Jessica held her breath. She knew if Master Xeahnort or Master Eraquas noticed it Terra would not become a Keyblade Master. After what seemed like hours to Jessica the battle ended.
"We have deliberated and reached a decision. Terra, Aqua, you both performed commendably. However, only Aqua has shown the mark of mastery. Terra, you failed to keep the darkness with in you sufficiently in check, but there is always next time. That is all. Aqua as our newest Keyblade Master, you are entitled to certain knowledge. Please wait here for further instruction." Master Eraquas said. Jessica and Ventus ran to Terra and Aqua.
"Terra, I'm sorry." Ventus said. "The darkness, where did it come from?" Terra mumbled. "Terra, I don't think the darkness is all bad." Jessica said. "Jessica, don't say such foolish things! Of course darkness is bad." Aqua scolded. "Sorry, I need some time alone." Terra said. "Jessica-" Aqua started in an angry tone. "Aqua, not today. You can say that the darkness is completely bad all you want, but that won't make me change me opinion. Even the light needs something to balance it out!" Jessica shouted. Before Aqua could say anything else, Jessica stormed off to her bedroom.
Luna was on her bed. Wasn't Luna on her dresser this morning. "Hello, Jessica." A voice said. Jessica looked around her room. No one. "On the bed." The voice sighed. Jessica turned to her bed. Luna was walking. Jessica screamed. "Would you keep it down please?" Luna asked annoyed. " talk?" Jessica asked. Before Luna could respond they heard a bell ring. Jessica ran out of the room. She went to the training room.
Terra and Aqua were already there. She took her place next to them. Eraquas was talking to a shining jewel which was also a communication device. He walked over to the trio. "That was my dear old friend Yen Sid. As you know he is Master no more, but he still keeps a close eye on the tides of light and darkness. His counsel serves as sign posts on the road we weilders of the keyblade must walk. All the more reason for concern, for he tells me the princesses of heart are in danger. Not only from the forces of darkness, which you may assume, but also from a new threat, one that feeds on negativity fledgling emotions which have taken monster form. Yen Sid calls them the unversed. As weilders of the keybade your task is to strike down any who would upset the balance between light and darkness. The Unversed are no exception. I tried to pass this news to Master Xeahnort, but my repeated attempts to reach him failed. I doubt there's any connection and yet, this all troubles me." Master Eraquas explained.
"Master Xeahnort is gone?" Terra questioned. "So here we are. Terra and Aqua I need you two to get this situation under control. Eliminate the Unversed, and find Master Xeahnort. I'll unlock the lanes between. We use these forbidden pathways to travel between this world and countless others. The darkness is closer than usual within these spaces, but your armor will protect you. Lastly remember that order must be kept. You cannot tell any one there are other worlds. Go, and fufill your duty." Master Eraquas ordered. "Yes Master." The trio said at the same time. "Not you Jessica. You will stay here and train with Ventus." Master Eraquas ordered. "What?! This is so unfair!" Jessica shouted.
"Jessica enough! You may watch Terra and Aqua leave but then you are to go straight to your room! Understand?" Eraquas snapped. Jessica got scared. She had never seen Master Eraquas angry and she knew that she wouldn't want to. "Yes Master." Jessica mumbled. Terra turned to leave, but Master Eraquas said his name. "Consider this an opportunity. A second chance to change my mind." Master Eraquas said. "What?" Terra asked, wondering if he heard right. "You must know I care for you like my own son. If I had my way, I would name you Master in a second, but how can I when you are so obsessed with power? Terra, you mustn't be afraid of losing. Fear leads to obssesion with power. obsession beckons the darkness. You must never forget." Master Eraquas explained.
"Thank you Master." Terra said. He and Jessica went outside. Terra told Jessica to keep a distance from him because he didn't want to accidentally hurt her. Jessica obeyed. Ventus whizzed past her calling Terra's name. She was too far away to hear the rest of what was said. Aqua came and stood next to her. She saw Terra put on his armor and transform his keyblade into a glider and open up a lane between. Terra flew through it.
Suddenly Ventus put on his armor and turned his keyblade into a glider and flew after Terra. Jessica and Aqua ran to Ven, but it was too late. "Ventus!" Jessica called, but he was already gone. Master Eraquas ran to where Jessica and Aqua were. "No. He mustn't. Aqua, you have to bring him back." Master Eraquas said. "Dont worry Master." Aqua said. She put on her armor and turned her keyblade into her glider and flew away.
"Does this mean I don't have to go to my room?" Jessica asked. "No. I suggest that you go now. The incident with Ventus did not improve my mood." Master Eraquas said. Jessica obeyed.
Wow this was a really long chapter. I hope you enjoyed it.
