Chapter 2: Intruder

XXX

Nomura Islands…it was said to be a paradise to where your wishes come true. Where your wildest dreams come to reality. One day, I came here, to this small world. With no memory of who or what I was. All I know is that my name is Kiara. And this is my story.

I was surrounded, and the only weapon I had was a stick. I have only one problem. My attacks keep going through these creatures! My heart pounded wildly in my chest. I eyes wandered over to each creature that advanced towards me. I backed away, panting. Could they be ghosts? They suddenly jumped at me. I dodged out of the way. There's just too many of them! I squatted on the ground, glaring at them. They came at me again. I swung at them, even though it was no use. I can't land a single hit! I backed away more from the creatures. "Where's Darlan and the others?" They came closer. "….I gotta get out of here!" I turned and ran. Something caught my ankle, making me fall to my face. I saw up and looked back, seeing one of the creatures clinging to me. I tried to shake it off. "Let go!" My eyes widened as I gasped.

They jumped together, making a cage, having me prisoner. "Hey! Let me out of here you-" A black hold formed a few feet away. "What's that?!" They began heading towards it. "Hey! I'm not going in there!" I cried and swung the stick. "Stop!" They grew closer to the hole. "NO!"

There was a flash of light and the white things scattered away. I sat on my knees, staring at the sticks transformation. It was a key. A big one! I stared at it in amazement, examining stared at the key in amazement. "Wha-what is this?" I wondered. The key suddenly pulled me forward to my feet, hitting one of the creatures. A solid hit!? I swung at them, hitting them directly. They were all defeated easily, but they left items behind. That was scary…I thought as I picked up one of the items. My eyes widened. What do they want…with this? The key disappeared. Forgotten.

"I'm glad we got them back!" Snow smiled, holding the three colored items. "They're important memories. Our lucky charms!" Realization hit. "Oh! I just said charm!" She laughed.

"We've got the word back!" Bay cheered. I stood behind my friends, leaning against the wall with my arms crossed, a small smile on my face.

"But that sure was weird, wasn't it?" Darlan asked.

"Yeah, I heard the charms were the only ones that got stolen." Bay said. "What a weird thief."

"And they're all the ones Kiara made. You know, ever since she came to our island. She made all of these lucky charms to help keep our friendship and memories alive. She gave them out to everyone."

"Really?" I asked, looking at the red charm that laid in my hand. It held the same heart symbol as my knecklace. Bay had a green charm. Snow had white. And Darlan had yellow. I stared at the charm, somehow feeling alone. Betrayed. Hurt. Angry. I clutched it tightly in my hand.

"Kiara?" I looked up at my friends. "You okay?" Darlan asked, her head tilted. I forced a smile.

"Yeah, I'm ok." I replied, rubbing the back of my head. Then, the bells started ringing, signaling curfew. We all looked up at the orange sky.

"Time sure does fly." Bay smiled.

"Summer's gonna end in a week." I reminded. Darlan frowned.

"We have to make the most of it." She said. We all nodded.

"See you." Darlan, Snow and Bay all left their way home, leaving me all by myself. I sighed and turned and left in the opposite direction. I stared at my feet as I walked up the pathway, then stopped. I looked up, staring out into the ocean. I flinched and squinted my eyes. The sun…it's too…bright. I thought as I shielded my eyes with my hand. My vision suddenly blurred as I felt the world around me spin. I feel a bit… I closed my eyes and fell to the grounded.

It's almost time…

Almost time? For what?

"And it seems Organization XIII is growing desperate as well. They'll not take her from us that easily. That is why I scattered parts of Kiara's feelings into charms throughout the town."

"The Nobodies can't tell the difference between these charms and Kiara's heart?" A hooded figure asked, looking at a purple charm that laid in his hand.

"To the underlings they all appear to be Kiara." A man with red bandages concealing his face proclaimed. He looked at one of the screens beside him. Nobodies soared across the screen. "Organization XIII…don't think you can do what you please in my realm." He saw a slick figure with red hair, looking at the Nobodies. "It's that meddling red head….Keep an eye on her." The hooded figure nodded.

"I will."

"At any rate…he'll awaken soon…"

XXX

The Nobodies flew around a red headed guy. He stared at the silver charm in his hand. "Geez, guys. Why are you bringing me charms for? Hm. Old man's smart. Now…" He burned the charm and crushed it in his hand, "Where is she?" He smirked.

I struggled to pull myself up, but I couldn't. I felt like something was forcing me to stay down. I heard footsteps near me. "Kari…."

Kari…?Oh….her….

She wields the keyblade. Kari stared at the white key that laid in her hand, surrounded by darkness. She looked up at the dark sky and nodded.

"Once you return…you may never wield the keyblade again…." A girl sat by Kari on the beach. Kari stared at her hand, feeling sad.

She is the keyblade master.

Kari stared at the key that she held strongly in her hand to two people. "So….this is the keyblade?" She asked, knowing the answer. They nodded. "You sure do have a strong heart." The girl grinned.

Kari opened her eyes, facing up at a clock tower.

BONG! BONG!

I shot straight up, my eyes opened wide. I clenched my pounding chest, wiping the sweat off my brow. I breathed heavily and looked around, finding myself back home. "How did I get home?" I looked at my hand, holding my palm open. "Key…blade…" I whispered.

XXX

"Come forth! Appear! That was pointless." I huffed, staring at the stick in my hand, trying to call the keyblade. I rolled my eyes and tossed it away, only to have it hit someone in a hooded coat. "Oh!" I gasped.
