(finally gives up after three days of searching for Robo and Ness) Well, sorry for taking a little bit longer than usual. I forgot to mention in my last chapter that my cousins were staying for a little bit, so I couldn't type anything (mainly do to one of them's time consuming habit of reading BeyBlade fics). Now, as you can tell from reading what's in the first parentheses, I have failed in finding the little scoundrels. But the good thing is I don't have to worry about them anymore!
(Kari, Zelda, and Link pop out of my fanfic)
All three: You need to worry about us now!
Med: x.X (has passed out under stress from realizing her OC is alive)
Kari: Wow, what's up with her?
Zelda: Really. Hasn't she ever seen video characters like us?
Link: (is playing with hair)
Med: (wakes up from unconsciousness) (sees Link and Zelda) (walks over and begins banging her head on a wall while muttering something about "hallucinations")
Kari and Zelda: (look at each other) Nutcase?
Link: Yes I am!
Everybody Else: --.--()
Med: I'm glad I don't own Zelda characters for once. And now a word to our reviewers.
Ninja Mage: God, I thought I already shot that stupid slapping person! (shoots the random person 22 times) Anyway, my summer vacation started May 28 actually. And about Tidus, maybe I could maim him...He is stupid after all, especially in FFX. Thanks for the idea! And also please don't delete your FF. Please? Please? Please? Please? Pl- (is slapped by Zelda) Ouch! Well, thanks for reviewing! And about the man: this chapter may throw you off slightly.
Kinoarashi: It's okay man, you don't have to. For the idea:I don't know how to contact the FF.net people and I'm not sure they would let me. Well if you know how to contact them, then tell me so I can try. And welcome back!
L4by4: Yeah, I guess I do. Stupid, ain't it? Thanks for the congratulations, though! Seeing as I can't put a lot of humor in here, I put as much effort as I can to put some in the author notes (hence the stupid Link).
Link: . I resent that! I'm not stupid; I just have a low IU.
Zelda: That's IQ, Link.
Link: Really?
(Kari, Zelda, and Med do an anime fall)
RandomFlan.EXE: I think that I need to, too. That's why I will lengthen. If it's not long enough for you, (hands him an electrical whip) you know what to do with that. And thanks for the compliments very much!
Aisler: I've never thought of the prologue like that. I usually thought of it as a chapter that seems half the size of all my other chapters. Thanks for reviewing, though; it's highly appreciated!
Note 1: Sora will FINALLY be introduced in this chapter!
Note 2: From now on, all chapters will be at least 1000 words, 'k? If that's not long enough, tell me!
The Legend of Kingdom Hearts
Chapter 7 An Odd Find
The black creatures began shouting loudly. The dead body of one of their leaders was incinerated seconds after being blasted by their lord. He was, apparently, very well respected among them.
"SHUT UP!" Ganondorf managed to shout. It silenced them quickly; every glowing yellow eye was now set upon their master.
"Now, does anyone else have a comment?" the other man said dangerously as he swept some dust off his gloves. Nobody made a movement. "Good. Now prepare yourselves, my shadows. Ready yourselves, for we set out for a new planet to conquer! Go my monsters!"
At these words, the shadows threw their claws up in the air, shouting a chant with each time.
"Lord Charles! Master Ganondorf! No failure! Victory! Lord Charles! Master Ganondorf! No failure! VICTORY!!"
Knock Knock
"Hello? Anybody here?"
Zelda and Link entered the shop. To their right, a chimney with a small lit fireplace was cackling merrily. To their left, a cabinet was filled to the top with bottles and small broken pieces of what looked like machinery parts. The counter next to it was empty, though. Zelda walked forward a little bit.
Links put a hand on her shoulder. "Zelda, do you hear something?"
She listened. Her ears picked up muffled sounds of a voice somewhere in the shop. The voice seemed very irritated and a little country like.
"...danm machinery. It's gonna take me a while to finish you. I swear when I get Leon, I'm gonna kick his sorry..." A clang of metal interrupted his sentence. The voice began shouting a stream of curses from kicking the contraption. Link couldn't help but laugh at him.
"Wha'? Who's there?" The voice began to get louder. It seemed to be coming from the wall behind the counter. "If it's Tidus again he won't make it out alive!"
The wall opened up to reveal the possessor of the voice. He looked to be around his early 40's. He had short blonde hair, the top ended in a small pointed cowlick. On his forehead was a pair of goggles, probably for machine work Zelda thought. He had a short sleeved white t-shirt on, allowing his slightly muscular arms to be seen. He also had baggy blue pants on; a few smudges were imprinted on it. A large brown belt held it in place. The man's boots were tapping impatiently as he stared at Link with striking blue eyes.
"Well, whaddaya starin' at?" he said impatiently. "I've got work te' do."
"Please, sir..." Zelda began. The man seemed startled; it seemed as though he had just noticed she was there.
"Don't call me sir, mam," the man said politely. "Jes' call me Cid," he said striking a pose, "the owner of the Accessory Shop." Link snorted.
"Well then, Cid, can you tell us where to find a man named Leon?" Zelda asked.
"Oh him? He's always hanging out around the alley down town, he said thoughtfully. "Just head through the door marked Second District behind this shop. Look for a fountain and head through a small brown door on the right side. Then just walk straight ahead and you'll find him somewhere there. But why do ye' wanna know?" he asked suspiciously.
"I think that's our business, thanks," said Link as he crossed his arms.
"Well thanks for the info, Cid. It's greatly appreciated!" Zelda said, beginning to go for the door.
"Wait!" Cid said quickly. He picked something out of his pocket and gave it to her. It was a small ticket with a weird symbol on it. "Show that to Leon when you find him; it proves that you're on friendly terms with his group."
Zelda and Link nodded their heads and left the shop. As soon as they were outside, they ran towards the Second District.
Kari rubbed her behind with a scowl.
Mental note to self: Never go inside a shop if you don't have money and the shopkeeper is in a bad mood.
She leaned against the wall of the shop, propping her head up towards the skies. Many stars winked at her from above in the blackish sky. She even swore that she saw one go out. The calm night was only interrupted by a small groan nearby.
Kari stood up straight and listened. Another groan issued, this time softer. She walked toward the back of the shop. She found a boy lying on the ground.
"Hey, man, are you okay?" Kari asked.
The boy stood up and stared at her for a few moments. He looked around him.
"Where am I?"
"You are in a place called Traverse Town. My name's Kari," she said politely as she helped him up.
"The name's Sora," he said.(A/N: Since most of you know what Sora looks like, I'm not going to bother describing him)
Both began walking. "So how did you get here, Sora?" asked Kari. Sora pondered it.
"That's what I'd like to know. All I remember was fighting this huge black thing, then everything goes blank."
They were now at the town square. Kari dimly noticed that it was empty.
"Do you remember anything else?"
Sora nodded. "I lived on an island with my best friend Riku. He and I are rivals. We always used to play Swords with each other. Until one stormy night, when these odd shadow thingies attacked. That led up to my battle with their boss. And now here I am."
"Well well well, what do we have here?" said a voice behind them.
Med: Question: How did you guys get here?
Zelda: An author needs comic relief at one point or another.
Kari: Besides, we wanted to come.
Med: -.- Great, green dude over there is going to make my life hell. Oh well, review!
One last question: For anybody who has played FF7, can you tell me what the name of Red XIII's tribe is? Very important!
