Tobikunaï: HI THERE!
Kansatsu (Tobikunai's muse): You scare me sometimes. You really do.
Tobikunai: Aw, shaddap. Welcome, friends, to Castle in the Sky! Don't worry, minna-sama, I will finish the KH Outtakes, but while waiting for reviews after chapter 11, I decided to start on a fic I'd been thinking about for a while. This might have been done before, but hopefully my ideas are different... I don't know... But it's worth a try!
Kansatsu: We're all doomed.
Tobikunai: That's very true...
-Prolouge-
There were more of them now, Ansem was sure of it. Not only that, but they were certainly stronger. Gone, now, were the trembling black shapes that had once stood here, gone were the armored but still delicate creatures that has preceeded them. In their place were many others, from frail lantern-shaped spellcasters to enormous, powerful demons, ceatures of pure shadow that rose tall above him, a huge heart-shaped hole in their chests.
Ansem was realizing, by now, that they were too strong to hide forever. Someday, some horrible day, they'd get out, someday, some horrible day, they'd swallow this place, consume it, desrtoy it from the inside out. He tried not to think about it, but it was always there, in some corner of his mind. They'd destroy everything...
... Unless there was some way to control them.
He'd already tried to think of a way, many, many times. All these times, he had failed. There was no way. He didn't like this thought, but regardless, it always came to him. But then... he had noticed something earlier that day. The more powerful creatures could command the weaker ones. Maybe...only Heartless could control Heartless. Maybe, to stop them all, He would have to become one of them.
Ansem's reverie was broken by the sound of footsteps not far away.
"Wha-" he started, standing up. "Who's there?"
A voice, the voice of a teenager, was his answer, a voice that spouted muttered curses as its owner fled. Someone was here. Somewhere in this castle, someone knew.
(A/N)
Kansatsu: No one cares about Ansem, stupid.
Tobikunai: I know. That's why it was so short. The other chapters will be longer and better, I just felt like getting this introduction out.
Kansatsu: Admit it, you just can't write.
Tobikunai: Well, that would be your fault, now wouldn't it?
Ja ne minna-sama!
