The Twilight Kingdom

"Klaus! Klaus! Wait!" a girl about the age of 14 called out to a auburn-haired boy who refused to acknowledge her. He continued walking at his normal pace which was faster than the girl's. After being fed up with being completely ignored, the girl removed one shoe from her foot and chucked it as fast as a baseball pitcher straight at Klaus' head. The blow sent him flying into the ground face first, the girl finally reached him and kicked him in the side. "You jerk! I told you to wait up!"

"Cram it..." he said in a muffled voice, "I'll wait when I feel like it." he grumbled pulling himself up. The girl grabbed the collar of his sleeveless blood-red shirt and started shaking him "Don't gimme that crap!"

The pummeled boy looked bored as he grabbed her wrist and forced her to release him. "Listen Tomo, I'm really not in the mood..." He dusted himself off and began walking again. Tomo followed slowly, "What's wrong?" she asked suddenly gentle. Klaus finally talked to her as if he was her friend and said "That girl Namine is gone, and I feel darkness coming closer, only...it's not the Heartless from years ago, it's something new," he paused and looked up at the sky "This town, Twilight Town, is the first place they're gonna nail..."

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah, I'm sure of it. They're coming, the 'Dusk'"

Tomo stopped in her foot steps and uttered the words "T-the Ducks?" Klaus walked back to her and whacked her on the head lightly, "The 'DUSK' not 'DUCKS' you baka! Now let's go, it's getting dark, I gotta take you home now."

"Okay. Thanks."

CHAPTER 2

"Long ago, people lived in peace, bathed in the warmth of light.
Everyone loved the light.
Then people began to fight over it.
They wanted to keep it for themselves.
And darkness was born in their hearts.
The darkness spread, swallowing the light and many people's hearts.
It covered everything, and the world disappeared.
But small fragments of light survived...in the hearts of children.
With these fragments of light, children rebuilt the lost world.
It's the world we live in now.
But the true light sleeps, deep within the darkness.
That's why the worlds are still scattered, divided from each other.
But someday, a door to the innermost darkness will open.
And the true light will return.
So, listen, child.
Even in the deepest darkness, there will always be a light to guide you.Believe in the light, and the darkness will never defeat you.
Your heart will shine with its power and push the darkness away.
"

"Grandmother...?" Tomo lifted herself slowly as she wiped the sleep from her eyes. "Grandma was there! She told me that legend again! But why?" she thought deeply as she got ready to start the daily routine. She walked down stairs calling to her mother for breakfast, "Mom...?" she reached the kitchen, but her mother wasn't there. Sitting in the table chairs, were 6 people in black robes. One was a blonde girl who was innocent looking, but menacing, another had fire red hair and stared at her surprised expression, the others were standing in separate corners of the room watching her.

"Who are you? Get out!"

"You know it would be quite difficult to answer your questions if we weren't inside with you." The blonde girl giggled mockingly. "Shut up! You know what I mean! Why are you here? Where's my mother?"

"Patience girly, we just want to talk..."

"I don't talk to people who set their hair on fire just to look like some guy from an anime!" Tomo snarled at the red head. She was surprised by her own courage to stand up to 6 people, but something was triggering her defensive self. The rad head glared at her and stood up, slowly starting over to her, every step making her more and more tense. When he stopped progressing to her, he was at most a foot from her face, he grabbed her chin tightly and jerked her head up to face his. "You needn't be so rude. It'll get you into trouble."

"Let me go you," she was stopped by the sharp feel of a blade at her throat. "I like girls with spunk, but you're way to young for me, maybe I should just get rid of you, it'd be one hell of a picture!" The red head raised his weapon, which was a wheel with blades (a.k.a the wind wheel) ready to strike.

"Axel! Do not harm her! She is vital to us." demanded a tall brown long haired man.

"You know I wouldn't hurt her, Marluxia, I was just kidding. Tomo fainted from the suspense and a large muscular man picked her up throwing her over his shoulder. "Let's go now, I'm bored!" The blondey whined. "Shut up Larxene, you're just as boring as anything in this world!"

"How dare you! Your fire must've fried your brain if you think I'm the dull one!"

"Oh yeah!"

"SILENCE!" shouted Marluxia "Lexeaus, Zexion, Vexen and you 2, we have to leave."

Marluxia summoned a large pink scythe and opened a large door that appeared infront of them. As they were about to leave, a dark flame came flying toward Lexeaus, "What!"

"Drop the girl and leave Organization! Or prepare to face eternal bliss in Hell!" They all gasped as they saw Klaus pointing a black sword at them. "If it isn't Klaus, long time no see." Axel smirked, "If we die then so shall you!"
