The Hearts of Light
Chapter 3: The Tale of the Guardians
Notes: hey, hey thanksgiving! NO SCHOOL! But enough of that Sora and co. will finally learn what Ark was talking about the guardians. Or… you guys will… see you!
Third-person POV
"Guardians?" said Sakura. "What guardians?"
"It began 1000 years ago…" said Ark who began his story. A story that had been told over the eons. The story that changed everything, including other worlds. Worlds beyond their reach. Worlds too extraordinary.
1000 years ago…
Long ago in the country of Nelphi there was a balance between light and dark. They were bitter rivals however there was beings stronger than the creatures or beings that dwelled in the light or dark. They were called the Guardians or the hearts of light. They were called this because no matter what your heart would be cleansed by the light. They were a group that didn't care if you were from the dark or light as long as you had a sense of justice. They protected the innocent crossed in the lines of fire. They also stopped any group from obtaining too much power. However something happened that changed history forever.
The dark was obtaining too much power so much power that they finally defeated the light. The elder of the dark, after obtaining the power and technology of the light, began to use it for evil. He started destroying buildings, monuments, and taking lives of innocent people. The guardians came to confront him unknowingly that they would lose. The elder of the guardians knew what he must do; he had to sacrifice himself so the darkness wouldn't destroy other worlds. He chose some guardians to leave so they can leave descendants. Four guardians went to each world, two males and two females. However the darkness wouldn't let them go away easily. They destroyed ships, and killed most of the guardians. In the end only a few survived because of the elder. He cast a powerful spell sealing the dark away, knowing that he would die. He cast one more spell so his descendants could come back and defeat the darkness.
"The four will return. The boy who has fallen to the dark and returned to face it again. The boy who has the sword that can pierce light and dark. The girl who's heart is all-powerful. The girl whose magical abilities overpass the rest."
When he finished his body dissipated to a million leaves. After that Nelphi had experienced an era of peace and happiness.
End of story
"… However the dark that has been sealed once is now being released," Finished Ark, "so please you are only hope to face this dangerous threat. You might face death itself but will you fight the darkness at its fortress?" The travelers seemed surprised. However Ark was the one who was surprised when the spiky kid told him. "I'll go… and fight…"
Kairi's POV
When Sora said that my heart stopped… literally. I didn't want to lose him. My heart would ache if he died. He was my best friend after all… right? I didn't want him to die so I yelled at him
"If you're going so am I!"
I shocked everyone in the room. Then the girl with brownish-hair said,
"Um… I want to go too…"
The boy next to her gave her a puzzling look. As if he didn't want her to go. He just looked at her one more time and said,
"Fine I'll go too…"Ark nodding to our answers said,
"Alright then I'll give you materials for your adventure. However I believe it would be best if you all knew more about each other before you go…" Before I knew it he left leaving us alone in the room. There was an awkward silence entering the room. This was going to be weird…
Sakura's POV
It was so strange… there was two unknown people there who were going with us to face whatever evil was at the end of this journey. I decided to break this… awkward silence…
"So how do you guys know each other?" I asked pointing at both of them. They just looked at each other and um… replied at the same time surprisingly
"We're best friends." When they realized they said this at the same time they both began to blush. Then the boy pointed at both of us and asked,
"How about you two?" I didn't know what to say but Syaoran answered first,
"Same thing…" When he said that I felt strange, almost if I wanted him to say something different. I pointed to the boy and asked, "Is your name Sora?" then I pointed my finger to the girl, "And your name is Kairi? Right?" they both nodded.
"Well my name is Sakura and this boy is Syaoran." He just nodded back.
"Nice to meet you." I shook his hand but when I put my hand into his. Something weird happened, so weird it is the strangest thing that ever happened to me. Including the day I obtained the clow cards. Out of nowhere my wand activated and in his hand was a strange key. It was big and at the end it was shaped like a crown…
