Yo! Hey guys, sorry for the wait. I was taking a Holiday break. This chapter was really fun to write, I introduce two new characters, and Violet finally goes back to school today! Um, I dont know what else to say but... Fuck Square Enix. You know with the whole no new Kingdom Hearts game in 2015 for anyone that's not Japanese. Also, fuck what everyone is saying about Witcher 3 winning Game of the Year, in my opinion it was a terrible game. Life is Strange is my Game of the Year for 2015. Also #FuckKonami.
But guys dont forget to follow, favorite, review, or send in an Oc if you want. Form is on my profile, so yeah, enjoy reading people!
-Aftermath-
Violet let out a big yawn as she walked into the kitchen, wearing a t shirt, and panties, Toni just glanced at her briefly, rolling her eyes.
"Violet, pants now." Toni ordered, Violet just rubbed her eyes and lazily looked at her mom.
"Wha?" Violet asked, Toni glared at her.
"Your uncle's staying here for a while, so don't be parading around in your underwear." Toni said, Violet nodded dumbly, walking back to her room to get dressed. She closed her door behind her, and looked in her mirror, with a sad chuckle.
"You look like hell girl…" Violet murmured in a sad voice. Her phone vibrated from her bed, she glared over at it, seeing Emma's name on the screen, along with a stupid picture of the two of them together.
The calls had started coming last night, and since then Violet had been getting progressively more depressed. Violet hadn't bothered to answer at all, she was angry, and rightfully so, given how their last conversation went.
-Aftermath-Five Days Ago-
"What did you want to talk about Violet?" Emma asked in a slightly impatient tone. Violet looked like she'd been crying, and averted her eyes so she didn't have to look at Emma. Instead focusing on watching her own hands wringing together out of stress.
"I… I wanted to know if you wanted to…" Violet sniffled, and shut her eyes tightly to keep the tears from falling, well, more of them from falling. "To get back together with me?" Violet asked in a desperate tone, Emma glared at her.
"Violet, what are you talking about, you broke up with me." Emma said, Violet stopped for a brief second, shaking her head as her anger spiked. Nearly mirroring the loud crash of thunder that sounded shortly after.
"No I didn't!" Violet yelled, surprising Emma, who just gave her a look.
"What are you talking about? You told me we were broken up!"
"That was only after you got scared, and brought it up in the first place!" Violet yelled back at her. Emma stepped back up the porch steps, away from Violet.
"Violet, just leave. You're an immature little bitch who thinks she can just play with people's emotions. I wanted to part on good terms, but you've made that impossible. Just leave already Violet, we're done. I think you said it last time, it would be better if we never saw each other again." Violet balled up her fist and shook her head angrily.
"You're just a fucking coward!" Violet yelled in frustration, before she stormed off, just as rain started to fall. She had stormed past several houses in a fog before she just calmed down slightly.
"Violet!" A voice called out, she turned her head to see Zen, her first, and only boyfriend. He had medium length black hair, with bright blue eyes. Pale skin, he was skinny, and lanky.
"What?" She growled out in a similar way to the way her mom did. Zen got a worried look on his face, and walked up to her, placing his hand on her shoulder.
"Something's wrong Violet, tell me…" Zen said softly, in a caring voice, Violet just looked at him, her lip quivering as he led her over to his house. He sat them both down on the swinging porch chair. Violet just looked down at her hands, and Zen smiled looking out at the rain.
"She wont take me back…" Violet murmured, Zen frowned, and rubbed her shoulder, she let out a sigh, and put her head on his shoulder.
"I'm sorry Violet. But at least you've got this nice rain outside!" Zen said, trying to make Violet look on the bright side of things. She let out a smile. When they used to go out they would sit right here, just like this and watch when it rained.
"We used to be so good together…"
"Yeah, I'm sure you guys can get back to where you were." Zen said, she shut her eyes.
"I was talking about us Zen…" Violet trailed off, Zen smiled at her.
"Yeah, we were. But, that's in the past, we cant go back to that again Violet. But, you'll always be in my heart." Zen told her, Violet looked up at him.
"Why cant we?" Violet asked, Zen smiled at her, and brushed some hair behind her ear.
"Because Violet, we both need more experience in relationships before we're mature enough to handle it. We already rushed it once, and that was what caused our relationship to end. Remember, we both agreed it would be for the best if we ended things."
"I know Zen… I love you, you know that right? Unconditionally." Violet said, Zen smiled and nodded, kissing her forehead, she smiled happily. Everything would be okay for her, eventually.
-Aftermath-Present Day-
"Violet, are you paying attention?" Toni asked, Violet turned and looked at her mom. They were on their way to Apex High currently.
"No…" Violet trailed off, Toni glared at her.
"I was telling you to be careful today, no fights unless you really cant avoid it." Toni ordered, Violet nodded as they pulled up to the school. Violet kissed her mom's cheek before getting out of the car.
"I love you mom."
"Love you too Kid, have a good day today." Toni said happily, Violet smiled and closed the car door, turning around, and walking towards the large school building.
"Violet!" Jesse called, Violet turned to him, and walked over, he smiled, putting his book away. "Are you okay?" Jesse asked, Violet nodded.
"I'm fine. I spent the entire day yesterday training, but my Uncle used like, this healing spell on me, so I'm feeling fine." Violet told him, Jesse smiled.
"That's good. Things were relatively boring here yesterday. We got a couple new students, and I had a fight with Damon." Jesse told her, she looked at him surprised.
"Really? Why, I don't want you two fighting." Violet told him, he smiled at her.
"It was just a sparring match. I won." Jesse told her, Violet nodded.
"How?" Violet asked, Jesse smiled, and held out his hand, conjuring an ice spike in his hand.
"Magic." He told her, she smiled. He dissolved the spike, ands cleared his throat. "I'm actually glad I caught you, I was waiting after all."
"Why were you waiting on me Jesse?" Violet asked, Jesse smiled at her.
"You're with me today Violet. The whole day. I've got to show you around The New Guardians of Light. Since we didn't get to do this at all yet, we have a lot of ground to cover."
"Damn. I forgot that was today… Can I just get my head slammed against a wall already so I don't have to…" Violet said, Jesse frowned.
"I said I was sorry…" Jesse said guiltily, Violet shook her head.
"I don't blame you Jesse, don't sweat it, okay?" Violet asked, Jesse let out a sigh. Violet frowned, and moved over to him as her phone rang, she shook her head, and threw her arm around his shoulder.
"You're phone is ringing." Jesse said, Violet nodded simply. "Are you going to answer it?"
"Of course not, it's my ex. The bad one at least." Violet said, Jesse gave her a look.
"You said both ended badly."
"Well, any relationship that ends is bad in my opinion. I guess I did kinda lie, I just didn't know you too well, wasn't sure if I could trust you. Only one really ended badly." Violet told him, he nodded, and looked down.
"Your face is really close to mine, and we're pressed together."
"Yeah. If I had bigger boobs, would that make things more awkward?" Violet asked, Jesse looked down, causing her to smirk at him. "I am mad, like… Both my parents have bigger boobs."
"Well, they are older…"
"They're at least C's! I have these stupid A's, almost B's!"
"We're seriously having this conversation right now?" Jesse asked, Violet smiled.
"My mom never lets me live it down! Like, just because they aren't as big doesn't mean they aren't the same. Come on, feel em!" Violet exclaimed, Jesse didn't move an inch, just stared at her with a bright blush coming to his cheeks.
"Um…"
"Do it, feel them! I could use a pick me up actually, my nips are so sensitive, just play with them a little bit, please." Jesse just stared at her.
"You're just doing this to make me uncomfortable aren't you?" Jesse asked, Violet nodded, Jesse shook his head.
"Sorry, you're just too fun to mess with." Violet told him, he let out a sigh, and pushed his glasses up to rub the bridge of his nose. "You could play with my nips though, I wouldn't mind."
"Violet…" Jesse said, ducking out of Violet's arm that was draped over his shoulders.
"What? I was just saying!" Violet told him, he shook his head.
"When we're meeting people today, I would ask that you please refrain from the profanities, and anything like what you just did. Some of these people are really important, and a majority of them don't take kindly to… Your kind of behavior." Jesse told her, Violet glared at him, only slightly annoyed.
"I'm not going to censor myself. Besides, I don't have a filter for my thoughts anyway. Couldn't do it if I tried." She told him, he let out a sigh, this was obviously not going to work, today would be hell.
"Just please try." He pleaded, Violet let out a sigh, and held up he hand.
"I swear to at least try." She replied, he smiled, and turned around. Violet smiled, and laced her fingers with his as she grabbed his hand, causing him to stop and give her a look. "What?" She asked oblivious.
"Why are you holding my hand?" Jesse asked, Violet gave him a cheeky smile.
"Because I wanted to." She told him in a completely fake innocent tone. He just shook his head, she obviously wasn't going to stop, so he had better just learn to deal with it. He began to lead her to the hall where the New Guardians of Light's classes were.
"Okay, so contrary to popular belief the people who run the New Guardians of Light at this time are not Sora, or his group. No one really knows where they are, common speculation is that they are on an adventure." Jesse told Violet, who just nodded as she listened to him.
"Who's leading the group though?"
"No one knows. Most people get trained at Yen Sid's tower, but he's not the leader. It's someone else. All we really know is that they live in Radiant Garden." Jesse told her, Violet nodded, as Jesse opened the door to the bright hallway that the New Guardians of Light studied at.
"Would you shut up and take this serious, it's starting to get on my nerves." They heard a feminine voice say, in an even tone, with no emotion behind it except for the very, very slight hint of annoyance, almost as soon as they entered the hall.
"But you're so mean, and expect me to know all this complicated stuff!" They heard Ruby exclaim. Jesse and Violet looked at each other and followed the source of the commotion.
"If you would actually pay attention, and weren't such an idiot it wouldn't be so complicated." They arrived to see who was behind this voice. Jesse recognized her, but Violet had no idea. This was exactly who he was warning her about.
Her name was Kya, it meant diamond in the sky. As fas as Jesse or anyone else knew, that was all she went by. She had white hair that went to her mid back, and was curled. Her eyes were green on the right side, and blue on the left. She had pale skin, with one beauty mark under her left eye. Her body was trained, but still have obvious curves.
She wore a white bando top with gold lining at the top and bottom of the shirt. She is also wearing a pair of white spandex jeans with the Kingdom Hearts symbol trailed up the side of the right leg in black. She's wearing a pair of knee high black boots with gold soles, and a pair of bell sleeves that are completely separate from her top, with a pair of bandage fingerless gloves on her hands.
"See, like this bitch! She has tits!" Violet exclaimed, and Jesse immediately face palmed. "Hell, even Ruby had bigger tits than me, and shes fucking younger than I am!" VIolet exclaimed, Jesse just shook his head and quietly muttered to himself.
"Why, why did she have to say it?" Jesse asked to any power that would hear him, he wasn't heard by anyone however. Kya turned to Violet, with a glare.
"I'm sorry who are you?" Violet asked, and before Kya could answer, Violet poked Jesse in the side causing him to look at her. "Jesse, who's this bitch who's giving me a look like I'm an idiot?" Violet asked.
"That's Kya, Violet. You remember how I told you that important people were here, and wouldn't take kindly to your behavior. She's one of them." Jesse said, Violet just made a noise of understanding, and smiled brightly at Kya.
"Nice to meet you!" Violet said, letting go of Jesse's hand to offer it to Kya, who stiffly shook it, her eyes never leaving Violet's. Violet laughed, a little creeped out, between Kya, and Ruby both staring at her, she was starting to get uncomfortable. "Ha-ha-ha-ha! Jesse I'm uncomfortable can we please leave?" Violet exclaimed awkwardly.
"Would love to…" He muttered, as he tried to lead them away.
"Wait." Kya ordered, causing the two to turn back around. Her eyes were still fixed on Violet's.
"You know your heterochromatic eyes are kind of cool." Violet blurted out, before blushing, Jesse just looked at her, surprised she even knew the word, and used it correctly.
"How did you..?" Jesse trailed off, Violet just looked at him.
"My mother taught me a lot, just in case I needed to know it. We always watch those game shows where people have to answer questions, and she would teach me about the answers, and related things. It's kind of our thing when she get's home." Violet told him happily, as the memories filled her mind.
"Hate to interrupt. But I had something to say." Kya said, earning Violet's easily bought attention. "I would like a sparring match with you, if it wouldn't be too much trouble."
"Okay." Violet agreed without hesitation. She knew her mom said to not fight, unless she had to, but Violet wanted to fight this girl, something about her… Spoke to Violet. Jesse just gave her a look.
"Are you sure about this? I don't want you getting hurt a second time on my watch." Jesse said, Violet nodded.
"I wont get hurt. Plus, you know like, use magic if it looks like I'm about to lose." Violet told him, he just let out a sigh. Kya nodded, letting the tiniest curve of her lips show she was, kind of smiling.
"Let us depart then." Kya said, heading for the courtyard, the others followed behind her. Ruby just kept staring at Violet, and Violet just kept blinking, and being uncomfortable with the whole thing. Seriously, what was the girls deal, she thought.
Once they were in the courtyard, they moved to the section of grass where the New Guardians of Light students were usually located. No one was in the immediate vicinity, so they decided that this would be where they would spar.
"Ground rules. No magic, only weapons. If you give up the match ends, and we will spar for ten minutes. Sound fair?" Kya asked, Violet nodded, and grabbed onto her Key-Chain for Oathkeeper, summoning the Keyblade. Kya rolled her eyes. Great, another idiot with a Keyblade, she thought.
"Let's go Violet!" Ruby yelled, Violet just looked at her for a moment, before shaking her head, she had to focus. Like her Uncle taught her. Kya pulled the Rainfell Key-Chain from her belt, and summoned it.
They nodded at each other, and the match began. Violet ran forward, her Keyblade in her left hand as she approached Kya, who held her Keyblade in a stance similar to the Guardian of Light, Aqua. Violet jumped into the air and swung her Keyblade down, Kya raised her own to block it effortlessly.
Kya pushed Violet away from her, the blonde landed nimbly on her feet, with a smile, Kya just glared at her, this was no game. Kya ran forwards, Violet swung at her, but Kya jumped over her Keyblade and stuck her free hand out, using it to spring herself forward, behind Violet. Kya landed on her feet and in one fluid motion turned around, and swung her Keyblade, Violet blocked it with her own, and smirked.
"This is fun!" Violet exclaimed, after dealing with her Uncle, and Mom, this was remarkably easier. At least this girl couldn't hit her like a truck with little to no amount of force. Kya just glared at her, how could this girl be calling this fun? This was serious, it was a fight! Kya pushed Violet away, causing Violet to stumble back a bit, as Kya stuck a few more times, and Violet blocked them all effortlessly, but chose to dodge the last one.
Kya glared at her, and moved even faster, Violet smiled, things were starting to get exciting. Every one of Kya's swings Violet dodged effortlessly, back flipping, ducking, and sometimes just moving slightly out of the way, Kya was in awe that this girl could make her look so weak. It was like Violet wasn't even trying.
"You're too slow!" Violet mocked, once Kya stopped her assault to take a quick breath, causing Kya to merely huff, and look at her. Violet showed almost no signs of fatigue, she hadn't even broken a sweat yet. Granted, neither had Kya, who was holding back herself, but still, it was annoying.
"Is it my turn yet?" Violet asked as she looked at her nails, noting she should paint them soon, but wondering which color to go with. Kya glared at her and nodded. Violet smiled, and took a quick breath. Before she lashed out at incredible speeds, Kya saw this and prepared to block, and dodge. It seemed as soon as Violet's Keyblade hit Kya's, Violet's would already be in another place, preparing to strike.
Kya was not expecting someone so idiotic to be so fast, and skilled with a Keyblade, but that didn't mean she couldn't handle it. She was trained for years to be the best, this was nothing to her really, just unexpected. Maybe she would have a challenge at this school after all, though the fact that it came in such an idiotic package wouldn't be pleasant.
As Violet continued her assault of striking two times every second, something she had recently gotten fast enough to do, thanks to her Uncles training, she was itching to use her Keyblade transformation, but was wondering if it counted as magic. She stopped for a second, and held up her hand, Kya just gave her a look. What was Violet doing, she couldn't just stop the fight. But Kya respected Violet enough as a competent fighter to not attack and wait.
"Are Keyblade transformations magic?" Violet asked, Kya gave her a look. Sure a lot of people had Keyblade's now, but most didn't even know about Keyblade transformation outside of those trained at Yen Sid's tower.
"Well, technically speaking yes. Ignoring the fact that you know what they are, we should get back to the fight." Kya said. Violet nodded, placing a hand on her hip.
"Okay. Was I going too fast though? Like, you blocked it all, but I just wanted to make sure, I don't want to hurt anyone." Violet said, Kya hummed.
"You were fine, keep it up by all means, I was holding back anyways." Kya said, Violet got a hurt look.
"Don't do that! Fight me with all you got! That's the best I can do, I just learned it yesterday." Violet said, Kya just shrugged. If Violet wanted to fight her best, she could.
"Charming." Kya muttered, getting back into a fighting stance, Violet smiled, and did the same. Kya took a quick breath and rushed at Violet, Violet almost couldn't track her, before she felt a Keyblade slam into her side, knocking the wind out of her. Violet coughed as Kya's knee connected with her chin, knocking her up into the air. Kya jumped up and used her Keyblade to hit Violet in the back, sending her crashing to the ground, Kya landed on her feet.
"I'd say that, that ends the match!" Jesse exclaimed, before running up to Violet, he helped her up, and she smiled, after wincing a bit. "Jesus, are you okay?"
"I'm fine!" Violet lied through her teeth. Her head felt like she hit a brick wall again, her entire middle ached from all sides. She tried to move her Keyblade and a sharp pain went through her arm, causing her to scream.
"What? What is it?" Jesse asked, Violet pouted and let go of Oathkeeper, shoving her hand in Jesse's face.
"I sprained my wrist, can you kiss it and make it better?" Violet asked, Jesse rolled his eyes, and gently grabbed her hand, using healing magic on it, as he kissed the top of her hand, with a bright blush, Violet just smiled at him as her hand felt better.
"There happy now?" Jesse asked, blushing and turning away from her. Violet smiled and gave him a kiss on the cheek, noting how her lipstick left a mark, but saying nothing about it to him.
"Very happy Jesse." Violet told him, standing up. Jesse let out a sigh, Kya just hummed and picked up Oathkeeper, she handed it to Violet, who took it, and dismissed the Keyblade, as Kya did the same to Rainfell.
"Good enough match, but your attitude leave a lot to be desired." Kya said, Violet shrugged.
"I could say the same to you, Ice-Queen." Violet replied, Kya just gave her a look.
"I'm not an Ice-Queen."
"Fine, Bitch, whatever." Violet said, with a wave of her hand dismissively, she was done with this conversation, Kya just shook her head.
"Ruby, come on. We have to finish your tour if you're seriously considering joining the New Guardians of Light. I don't have time for stupidity."
"Okay, Bitch." Ruby said, proudly, looking over to Violet for approval, but the blonde was too busy talking to Jesse to notice. Ruby just let out a sigh, and followed Kya back to the hall.
"Do you think I could do it?" Violet asked, Jesse shrugged.
"Ignoring the random nature of how this conversation started, I have no idea. I've never heard you sing before."
"I'm literally a goddess when I sing. I love to sing so much. I could do that on the side when I'm traveling world to world, saving people." Violet said, Jesse shrugged.
"Sounds good to me, need a hand in traveling?" Jesse asked, Violet smiled.
"I mean, I already got two to get myself off with, so two more couldn't hurt I guess." Violet said, Jesse just let out a sigh, and she smiled at him. "We should get back to the tour though, right?" Violet asked, Jesse smiled and nodded, leading her back to the New Guardians of Light hall, Violet once again entwining her fingers with his own, smiling as she looked at the lipstick still on his cheek.
