Prologue

Hey, what's up?

Thanks for clicking the little link that brings you over to this story. I appreciate it. My ID name is Rockstar and I will be giving you a little tour of the story. If you look to your left, you will see a bunch of lawyers from Square-Enix and Disney. You can wave at them if you want. I'm just going to get on my loudspeaker and say "I do not own Kingdom Hearts, or any of its characters, or places." See, that makes them happy.

This is a prologue for the story Darkness, Shadows, and Memories. Just so you know, this takes place two years after the game and the ending events. But just to clear out a couple of things, I'm going to go ahead and give a little breakdown.

This is not a "high school fic." Sora, Kairi, Riku, et al. are not sitting in some classroom somewhere involved with some cheesy humor, bad grammar, misspelling, or mellow dramatic and less-than-intelligent plotlines. This, also, is not a character insertion, you won't find a version of me in Kingdom Hearts kicking ass and taking names and putting the main characters in the background.

So I guess this already makes this story a bit different than 90 of the fanfics out there, not to mention that this is a dark story. Yes, a dark Kingdom Hearts story. One that involves destruction, war, darkness, and yes, even death. Saying this, it's not an OOC fic either or a KH crew goes to World War Two kind of thing.

Basically, this is a story centered on Kairi and how she grows up, and her own search for Sora. This story involves all of the screenshots and trailers that have been released since then. That means, that the four unknowns are going to play a role (a HUGE role actually) and the blonde haired kid is a pivotal part to everything. I even put the supposed villain (the guy with red hair) in here.

Probably the biggest difference from the first game to this fic that you need to know about is that instead of going into various Disney worlds, I'm plunging our characters into the Final Fantasy realm, from VI up to X.

Sounds like something for you? Interested in a story that doesn't involve the word "high school," in the summary? Then by all means click the little arrow that proceeds to chapter one. Thank you and enjoy the ride!
