Hi, well I had several ideas for a while and I really wasn't sure how to go about this. So I decided to post this and see how you all like it. It's a bit short being a trial, so let me know what you think when you're done? Okay, so let's begin!

Title: Journals Of Young Apprentices

Type: Story

Summary: Ever wonder what kind of thoughts the young apprentices had while training in the ways of the keyblade? Well, why not take a peek in their journals and find out.

Idea: From 358/2, everyone keeps some log and Roxas kept a Journal as well. Could be about any of the young keybladers training under their masters. (Probably centered around BBS trio?)

Sub-Ideas:

- Terra's, Aqua's, Ventus' Journals (Training Under Master Eraqus, Master Xehanort, and in Ven's case the Foretellers?)

- Sora's and Riku's Journals (Self Training Journey)

- Lea's, Kairi's Journals (Training Under Merlin)


Story Start: Master Eraqus not only educates the children in wielding but also in history and other school skills they need to have in the world. Today's lessons were about the importance of history and the legacy of past wielders. They read through books, journals, even came across some useful information and new (to the two pupils) techniques in skill and magic. Both Aqua and Terra were inspired by what paper and pen could hold when used right and so they were inspired to write records of their own.

Today, Master Eraqus taught us the importance of record keeping, it's a way of making sure the past actions can be kept and learned from by future generations. So because of this lesson, I thought it would be nice to create a record book of my own to keep track of my time training as well as any techniques I create. So to start off, I must give a proper record of my identity. My name is Aqua and I am the age of 13. I currently stay in a world called the Land Of Departure training in the ways of the keyblade. My master, as I mentioned earlier, is a Keyblade master who helps to pass down the ways of our weapon from many generations ago. My only companion is a boy who is older than I, a boy named Terra, age 15. Much like myself, Terra wields a Keyblade and we both train in order to become masters. Terra has been here longer than I have, but I am able to make up the difference with the amount of studying and practice I do. The fact he is stronger just drives me to best him and prove that not only can I fight, but also for him to acknowledge a girl can defeat him. Oh, somehow my record keeping has become more of a personal diary, but I think I'll leave it alone for now and fill this with more information and my personal profile as the days go by.

Entry - Day 1 Of Journaling (Terra)

I'm not much of a writer, but Master Eraqus' lesson on why records have to be kept kind of piqued my interest. When I become a Keyblade master, why not let others know my big struggle to get to the top? So I decided to keep this story journal and write about all my wins against Aqua and successful training times, oh and one day when I beat Master Eraqus in battle. So yeah… What do I write here? Oh right, I guess I should tell everyone who I am and how old this future Keyblade master is right? So, I'm Terra and I'm 15. Aqua, the one I mentioned earlier is a girl and is 13, about 2 year younger than me. She has blue hair and it's kind of nice but weird at the same time. Aqua only came here less than a year ago to learn how to wield a keyblade, but I was here first. I want to learn how to use this weapon that I got a long time ago. As to how I got it… well, that's a story for another time. I don't want to give away too much for the trainees that will be reading my journey to Masterhood so I'll leave it at that.


No one really has a clear backstory of the BBS characters, so I thought why not start with their journals. I want to keep the entries as close to their personalities as possible while giving it a bit of adolescence as they grow up in the Land of Departure. There will be storytelling, but the main focus is storytelling through journal entries.

If you have any suggestions, I'm all for it in the comments. Oh and thank you so much for reading! :D
