Alone? Darkness? Light? Feels About Right!

“Beware the darkness in every heart, caused by suffering and

loneliness…” That is what the boy with spiked hair and blue eyes had said

when he had saved me, rushing in on a column of wind down the dark halls of the

foreboding mansion I had lived in for years. It had been a normal day for me, you know,

those days where you feel all alone, but with someone watching your every step, unsure of

who, but you knew they were there. Those days where you felt everything you did to help

wasn’t good enough for anyone. Yeah, I’m sure you know that kind of day, my

life has been one continuous chain of those days from the start. Anyway, today was the

final day of senior year, everyone around me talking about the LAST dance, which with my

luck happened to be the Valentines Dance. Having come up with enough courage, and what

seemed like a good idea at the time, I decided to ask a girl to the dance, and sighed as

the cruel smile spread across her lips, a dark feeling spreading through my body as I

resisted the urge to cry as she pushed the cake I had worked so hard on for her into my

now tear soaked face, watching me run out of the school, wishing that I hadn’t been

on this World, my feet pounding against the bricks down the street around noon, a regular

staccato rhythm that calmed me down slightly as I focused on it. I still don’t know

if it was by chance or Fate, but I ended up at my mansion, and I guess I just

couldn’t take the stress of all the day’s events and knowing I would be alone

in that damned house again, so I passed out on the hard floor where I had collapsed in an

unorganized mess. When I woke up, I felt cold, feeling as though I was locked in a block

of frozen steel, unable to move, but to my confusion I could not, more could I feel see

or touch, and suddenly, like a shooting star, I saw a glimmer of light, an enchanted

voice whispering aloud and into my mind as it brushed the dark chains and locks holding

me in place away as if they were dusty cobwebs, and she said it again and again,

repeating it until I understood what she said, “Go… Find…

Sora…” and in a flash of light, I awoke to see a bunch of dark creatures

holding me down, and when I attempted to attack them, my thrashing only when through

them, their hold tightening on me when that boy landed, his legs sweeping out in a

strange manner as he swung a strange weapon, a giant key, only to find that I had one as

well, and soon, I had stood up and held my weapon, one word spreading through my mind as

I looked at it, “Keyblade…” and I muttered the word, then the words

the enchanted voice had told me, and I took a fighting stance, my mind blank as I charged

into battle with this strange newcomer as though we had fought together for years, my

movements sure and quick as we charged up the stairs, our movements in such

synchronization that our bodies were only a hairs breath away from each other, only

touching when our cloths moved, and soon, I found that the monsters were gone, and as I

turned to the boy, he said those words, the words that are stuck in my mind like a bad

song, endlessly repeating over and over until engraved on my heart in flames of desire

when combined with the other words, a complete sentence forming in my mind, “Beware

the darkness in every heart, caused by the suffering and loneliness young Keybearer, for

you have found Sora, one of the many Keyblade masters…” and as he said these

words, I fell back, suddenly tired, and was asleep…
