A/N: Makes me really happy to know that people already like it :D! So, the first part of this chapter will just be about Luka's childhood with Terra and Aqua, and eventually, we'll get the BBS plotline :D! Please enjoy this chapter!

Disclaimer: I own nothing, sadly, except for this story, my oc, Luka, and my own copy of the game, Birth By Sleep.

"This way!"

"O-ok…"

"Terra, you don't have to drag her the whole way there. We're almost there anyway." Aqua said, frowning slightly at the boy as he dragged their new friend along.

Terra stopped, releasing Luka's wrist. "Sorry. Guess I just got a little too excited…Anyway, this is your room." Terra said, pointing to the door in front of them. He pushed it open and led them in, stopping so Luka could look around.

A wide grin appeared on her face as she ran forward and jumped onto her bed, giggling as she bounced. "It's so comfy and soft!"

Aqua and Terra both smiled at her reaction. "Yep!" Terra exclaimed, before running and jumping onto the bed with her, sitting up across from her. Aqua followed after him, crawling up and sitting next Luka. "So, where'd you come from?"

"A place called Traverse Town."

"What's it like there? We've never been to any outside worlds, except from our own and this one." Terra explained.

Luka frowned as she tried to explain. "It's a lot different from here. It's always dark, and the stars are always out."

"Like nighttime?" Aqua asked.

Luka nodded. "Yeah. But…it's not that nice of world though. Everyone can be really mean and rude. I don't like it there…It's not a happy place to be. Not even the stars are happy."

"Not even when you see shooting stars? 'Cuz those are the kinds of stars that you can make wishes on." Terra stated, grinning slightly.

Luka smiled sadly. "I've never seen a shooting star before. The only kinds of stars I've seen are the ones that blink out and disappear."

The other two children gasped slightly, both frowning sadly as Luka stared at her lap sadly. "Well, there must've been something nice about your home." Aqua piped in, a hopeful smile on her face. "You're parents must've been something to be happy about."

"I never knew them. I've lived in an orphanage my whole life. The nursemaids told me that they found me lying in the middle of the street. I don't know what it's like to have any family or friends…"

Terra grabbed her hand, causing her to look up at him. "Don't be so sad! You have us for friends now, and the Master too. We'll be you're family, Luka. You can count on us."

Aqua smiled at him nodding her head. "Terra's right. We'll be here for you, and the master as well."

Luka grinned widely. "Thank you…Terra and Aqua."

"No, no, you've got it all wrong! Like this, see? HYAAH!" Terra exclaimed, hitting the tree with the wooden Keyblade in his hand.

Luka stared at the toy sword in her hand before walking up to the tree. She hit with a battle cry, managing to make a small mark on the tree. "Look!"

Terra grinned and clapped. "Good job! Now all you have to do is try and summon your Keyblade." To demonstrate, he held his hand out, a flash of light appearing and disappearing to reveal a Keyblade in his hand. "See?"

Luka followed Terra, holding her hand out and concentrating hard, only to have a flash of light appear, but no Keyblade. Luka frowned at her failure, glancing back over her shoulder at Eraqus, who was watching them train. He stood up from his seat and walked over to Luka, kneeling down in front of her. He patted her head. "Do not feel bad, Luka. It takes time to learn how to call upon the Keyblade. Even Terra had a hard time with it at first."

"But Master Eraqus, I've tried over and over. I just can't seem to get it to come to my hand."

Eraqus smiled. "Just keep trying, Luka. Believe that you can do it and you'll get it to come to you eventually."

"Luka, try again one more time. I believe in you." Terra said.

"So do I, Luka! You can do it!" Aqua cheered.

Luka smiled at her friends, closing her eyes and concentrating. When she felt something in her hands, she opened her eyes and smiled at the Keyblade that rested in her hands.

The Oathkeeper was just the right kind of Keyblade for someone who had a lot of light in their heart.

8 years later~

"Stupid ground…why can't you be more comfy and soft like my bed?"

The young woman who was currently aggravated with the lumpy ground let out a contented sigh as she stared up at the sky, smiling as she saw the start of a meteor shower. "So pretty…" She mumbled letting out a loud yawn before allowing her eyes to drift close, memories of the past coming to her.

"Look, Luka! You see that tree?"

"Yeah, what about it?"

Terra didn't answer her question, just simply dragged her over to the tree and pulled out a small pocket knife from his pocket. He put it to the tree and began to carve something, earning a shocked gasp from Luka.

"Terra, Master Eraqus will get mad if he finds out what you did to this tree!"

Terra laughed. "He doesn't mind! It's just one tree, and I'm only carving a couple of things….Okay, it's done!"

She looked at it, a smile appearing on her face as she saw what he had written.

Terra & Luka were here!

She reached for his pocket knife. "Let me see that for a second." She carefully began to carve, Terra grinning happily at what she had carved once she was done.

Terra, Luka, Aqua

Friends for Life

"And that's how it will always be."

"-uka…Hey, Luka! Wake up!" Someone quietly exclaimed, gently shaking said girls shoulder.

Sleepily she opened her eyes to meet bright blue ones. "Aqua, I was sleeping like a log!"

She giggled. "You could've brought a blanket if you were planning on sleeping outside tonight."

Luka smiled. "Well, I wasn't exactly intending to fall asleep. Huh?" She glanced over and noticed that she wasn't the only one who had fallen asleep. She shook her head and sighed. "Of course, Ven is probably more hopeless than me."

Aqua chuckled at that before walking over to Ven while Luka went to sit on the bench. While Aqua laughed at Ven's childish pout, Luka simply smiled as she played with her braid.

"But- Did I dream that place up? It felt like I'd really been there before…looking up at the stars…" Ven said with a frown on his face, his frown disappearing as he laughed while Luka ruffled his hair, Aqua laughing.

"'Cept you've always lived here with us."

Ven nodded. "Yeah…" He mumbled, frowning again before looking back up at the two older girls with a smile. "I know." The three traveled over to the edge of the mountain, sitting down and letting their legs dangle over the edge. As soon as they were all seated, Ven glanced over at the two of them. "Hey, Aqua, Luka?"

"Hmm?"

"Yeah?"

"Y'ever wonder what stars are? Where light comes from?" Ven asked.

Aqua put on a thoughtful face. "Hmm…Well, they say-"

"That every star up there is another world." The three whipped around and Luka giggled when she noticed who their fourth guest was.

"Terra!"

He smiled at her. "Yep, hard to believe there are so many worlds out there besides our own." He made his way over to them, continuing to talk. "The light is their hearts, and it's shining down on us like a million lanterns."

Ven gave him a confused look. "What? I don't get."

"Well, since Terra said it, then it probably isn't very understandable to you." Luka said, giving him a pat on the shoulder.

"In other words, they're just like you, Ven." Terra said, a smile on his face.

Ven got up and walked over to stand in front of him. "What does THAT mean?"

"You'll find out someday, I'm sure."

"I wanna know now."

"You're too young to know now."

Luka began to laugh quietly, Aqua soon following. "Quit treating me like a little kid!"

As the two continued to laugh quietly, Terra glanced over at them. "Hey, what are you two laughing at?"

"We can't help it!" Luka said, giggling again. "It's just…"

"You two would make the weirdest brothers!" Aqua finished, everyone soon laughing together.

As they stared up at the stars Luka smiled as she counted the shooting stars, clasping her hands together and making wishes on each one she saw. Terra smiled at her actions.

"Why is it that you make all these wishes on those stars?"

Luka shrugged. "I'm not quite sure, but…I believe wishes are something very important. I have lots of wishes, and I hope that one day, that every single one of them will come true."

"How many wishes do you have anyway, Luka?" Ven asked from his spot on her other side.

She put a finger to her chin. "It would probably be morning by the time I finished telling you. To be honest with you, I'm not quite sure how many I have myself. It's not really an exact number."

"Huh?"

Aqua chuckled. "Luka's made so many wishes on so many shooting stars that she's lost count."

"She started making a list at one point."

"Yeah, until it fell into the pond thanks to you, Terra."

"Hey, technically you can't blame me for it when I was trying to prevent you from falling in."

"I still fell in though!"

Ven and Aqua laughed at the two until Aqua realized something and stood up. "Oh, yeah! Terra, you, Luka, and I have our Mark of Mastery exams tomorrow." She reached into her pocket and pulled out four star shaped charms, a smile on her face. "I made us good luck charms." She threw an orange one to Terra and a purple one to Luka, who smiled down at it. "Here!" She exclaimed, throwing a green one to Ven.

"I get one too?" Ven asked excitedly.

Aqua nodded, holding out her blue one. "Of course. One for each of us." She explained, the other three holding theirs out as well. "Somewhere out there, there's this tree with star-shaped fruit…and the fruit represents an unbreakable connection. So as long as you and your friends carry good luck charms shaped like it, nothing can ever drive you apart. You'll always find your way back to each other. Technically, I think you're supposed to make them with seashells, but I did the best with what I had."

"Oy, sometimes you're such a girl." Terra stated, earning a glare from Aqua.

"Hey, what do you mean 'sometimes'?"

"So this isn't a real good luck charm?" Ven suddenly asked, a disappointed look on his face.

"Well, that's yet to be seen. But I did work a little magic on it." Aqua said, Ven's frown disappearing into a curious look.

"Really? What?"

"An unbreakable connection."

"Hmmm…I think we should call them Wayfinders." Luka said, smiling down at her own charm.

"Why's that?" Terra asked.

"Well…an unbreakable connection, where nothing can ever drive you apart, and you can always find your way back to each other again."

Aqua smiled. "Wayfinders it is then."

"Well, it's late. We have to wake up tomorrow for the exam, and we need sleep." Luka said, Terra and Aqua agreeing with her, Terra stopping and turning around to call Ven.

"Hey, we're gonna head back."

The youngest of the four nodded. "Yeah. Me too!" Ven exclaimed, running after them and making the trek back to the forecourt.

Before she headed back, Luka stopped and stared at the sky, closing her eyes and clutching her wayfinder as she made another wish on a passing shooting star. "Together…Always…"

"Hey, you comin' or what?" Terra called.

"Yeah!" She ran after them, jumping onto Terra's back and almost causing him to fall over, causing Aqua, Ven, and Luka to all laugh as he allowed Luka to ride on his back.

"That would be the last night we ever spent beneath the same stars."

A/N: Eh, this came out okay, thought it wasn't too great. I couldn't really think up a good made up Keyblade for Luka, so I decided to make her the original wielder of the Oathkeeper Keyblade. Well, I'm officially 15 today, so be nice and leave me a review as a gift for my birthday! LATER TATERS!
