Mood: Excited
Rant: Today, I'm heading to Rosemont for the Acen convention. It turns out that I'm the only one cosplaying. (Caitlin was to go as Kagome, and Katie as Shippo) but they couldn't get their costumes done in time, so I'm cosplaying as Kikyo. I drew a picture of what all three of us would've looked like if we had cosplayed. I'll post a link to it in the next chapter. The inking sucks, but my drawings have gotten MUCH better. I also went to my bookstore the day Darren Shan (my fav author) came to my town for a book signing. Darren was really nice. He reminded me of myself and my friends so much it was scary. He looked EXACTLY like the Dungeon Master of my group. As we walked to the back of the store before he showed up, we walked by this guy coming in (HE BRUSHED AGAINST KATIE'S ARM) and I thought 'Wow, Nathan's here'. Suddenly everyone was applauding. I spun around and thought 'WAIT A MINUTE'. He was so cool. We asked him a bunch of questions, got lots of 'Cirque Du Freak' swag, and he signed all my books and wrote comments in them! Caitlin asked him for a hug. ; He was pretty weirded out, but he hugged her anyway. She swore she's going to frame the shirt she was wearing. We all got a group picture, (I'll post a link to it later) when my mom told us to say 'cheese' he grinned maniacally and said 'blood…' We could not stop laughing.
Anyway, we have a half-day in school today. Should be fun…
Everyone sat down on the floor. Raphael thought for moment.
"I'm not sure where to start…" He mumbled. He sighed and straightened up in his seat. "Alright. Sora, Riku, and Cedric. You know that you three are the keyblade masters, sworn to protect the worlds from the Heartless, correct?"
"Right…" Sora said frowning.
"Well, you three are not the first ones to wield the keyblades. Several hundred years ago, three young boys held those weapons as well. Their mission was to protect a pure-heart woman by the name of Aurora. Aurora was responsible for keeping darkness under control and to keep it from spreading throughout the worlds. Eventually, however, Aurora's power was no longer sufficient to hold back the evil. Her power had been weakened, because she had fallen in love with one of her protectors. The power that Aurora had struggled to hold back began to emerge. Using the last ounce of her life force, Aurora sealed the darkness inside of Kingdom Hearts. A seal within a seal. The three keyblade masters used their power to finish the seal. With that, Aurora died."
"What does this story have to do with anything?" Riku asked.
"You are the reincarnations of those three boys. After many generations, it seems that you three have the closest genetic makeup of them. Therefore, you are able to use the keyblades."
"And what about Aurora?" Carolyn asked, "What about her power?"
Raphael looked at her. "Her heart was reincarnated into three young girls. The Pure-Hearts."
"So if there's a seal in place, why do you need us?" Mia asked.
"The seal was broken recently." Tira broke in. "We don't know who's responsible, but the darkness is growing. It is known as the Lifeless. The Heartless were born from them, and now that the seal is broken our time is running short, we need the three Pure-Hearts, and Keyblade Masters to restore the seal."
"A SEAL WAS INJURED?!" Katie screamed, "OH THE POOR LITTLE ANIMAL!"
"Is she okay?" Raphael asked frowning.
"Katie's never been okay." Responded Carolyn, who had taken her walkman out of her pocket and was now strangling Katie with the headphones.
