Chapter 2 the finding
There he was, in the darkness again. Only he felt different, like he wasn't falling, just peacefully lying there.
"Hey?" a voice spoke, "Don't you think it's time to get up already?" he opened his eyes to see a girl about 15 with black hair, and dark green eyes, she had pale white skin, and was very beautiful.
"Who are you?" asked Daxovan, "And where am I?"
"Heh silly," said the girl, "Your at the bottom of the darkness like I told you," at this he sat right up.
"Your that Voice!" he exclaimed, "Where am I?"
"Your at the bottom of the darkness," she replied, "And at the top of the light, this is where you make the next choice Daxovan, and my name is Kallen,"
"I don't care, what your name is," he stated, "I wanna know where I am!"
"Your at the graveyard," Kallen answered solomly, "This is where you make the next choice, and start your search,"
"Search for what? My memory, or something else?" he asked.
"The universe is in trouble," she answered, "A great evil is swallowing powerful worlds, but these worlds are too close to the darkness for anyone but you to save them, follow me," she then turned, and left the room. He looked around, it was a small room, a single window, and only a bed, there was a mirror in the corner. Getting up, he walked over to the mirror, and looked at himself, he was at least sixteen with tanned skin, and dark eyes, he had sandy blonde hair, and a handsome face. He was wearing a simple pair of jeans, a black t-shirt, and black sneakers.
"So this is my face," he said staring at the mirror.
"Hurry up!" called Kallen from outside. He walked out of the door, only to be outside, and surrounded by swords stuck into the ground, what was strange about them was that they were in the shape of keys, all of them, and there were hundreds, "This is the Graveyard," said Kallen," A long time ago there was a war, and this is the remains,"
"What does that have to do with me?" he asked.
"In this battlefield are two weapons that yearn for your touch find them, and take them, they will take you to the first place you need to go," she answered.
"What are you talking about?" Daxovan asked, "How am I supposed to choose from all these, and which one?"
"They choose you, not the other way around," she replied, and with that turned, and left. The next twenty minutes was composed of him walking around looking at all the different weapons, some looking really cool, others looked completely stupid, but none of them felt... right.
He walked around, until he saw a hill. There were two weapons on crossed next to each other, the one on the right was about four feet long, five inches wide, and three inches thick. It had a strip of barb wire attatched to the handel, which looked like a ring made of scales, with a bar of metal running down the middle. At the base of the blade, right on the pommel, was a yellow eye with a slitted pupil, this connected to the blade which looked average, except for the long blood red vein ridding up all the way to the tip, which curved back into a claw on the back of the edge, this made the key shape that seemed so common with the rest of the swords.
The sword on the left was different, its handel was wwas wrapped in cloth and had six diamonds running up, all different colors, it had a long red chain hanging on the hilt, the guard was black, and so was the blade, which was three feet long, and had three thick spikes jutting out from the back of the tip. He didn't know why, but he grabbed both of them, and instantly knew the first one was Soul, and the second was Grave. Suddenly a burnning force of power surged within him.
"What is this?" he asked.
"Those are keyblades, weapons with the power to lock, or unlock anything," said Kallen appearing from nowhere.
"Who am I, and why am I being given this power?" asked Daxovan.
"Daxovan..." Kallen started.
"No! I don't know any Daxovan, I don't know anything!" he screamed, at this she smiled sadly.
"Daxo, you are someone who commited a terrible crime, and became a demon," at this he stared at her in confusion, he became a demon, what crime? "You have been sentenced to spend eternity in the darkness, having nothing," he looked down when he heard this, the feeling of anger washing over him, he was being sentenced for something he didn't even know! "But the evil I told you of before is strong, and you are the only one who can stop it, even if we must rely on the power of darkness," finally he interupted.
"If you, and whatever force out there hates darkness so much, then why did you ask for my help!" he shouted.
"Some on the council did not want to release you, some wanted to keep trusting the others chosen by the Keyblade," she responded.
"Then why am I here?" he barked.
"Because, unlike most of the council I know that just because someone is of the dark, that doesn't mean they are evil..." she paused, "You once understood that too,"
"You keep talking about the council, council of what, and what others?" he asked.
"The council of Defense," she explained, "We defend the good from the evil, in the battle of the two great forces, once you took up arms against us, now we need you, so please Daxo, help us!" he looked at her, and for some reason, couldn't stand the sad look that was on her face.
"Fine, I'll do it, but I want a full pardon, and a complete explaination," he responded.
"Okay," she replied, "All has been set up,"
"Good," he said, "So where is this great evil I'll go and get rid of him for you,"
"No, you don't understand," she sighed at this, "The great evil is hidding, but that is not the only threat, it has spread to many worlds, and it needs to be defeated there for it to be weak enough to destroy,"
"Fine then, I'll go around, and help all these places, and then I'll go kick this things head in," he replied.
"You can not go alone, it is too much for even you," she deadpanned.
"Then what you'll get those others to come help me,"
"No, these worlds are much more powerful than the ones they deal with, we need you, someone who can stand up to them, and two others, both must be aligned to the darkness,"
"Then where do I start?" he asked.
"Go to the world of Yami," she explained," there you will find the comrades you need, and maybe you will realize how to use your demonic powers," with that a new Shadowport opened.
"How am I supposed to know it's them?" asked Daxo.
"You will just have to find out for yourself," she walked away.
"Well at least I'm not falling this time," and with that he walked through.
