Kingdom Hearts Fan Fiction ❯ All's Fair in Love and War with Heartless ❯ A Phone Call ( Prologue )

Author's Note: I would like to inform all my readers that I do not own Kingdom Hearts, any of it's original characters, and/or any characters associated with it [i.e. Jack Skellington from Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas]. I am NOT making any money off of this story and I [cantwrit3, a.k.a. Oe98] will never sell this fanfic for any kind of profit or anything else like that.

Also, there are SPOILERS FOR ANYONE WHO HAS NOT PLAYED KINGDOM HEARTS 1, CoM, OR 2. I ask that you review my work and help me ADVANCE as an "artist of words" [I like saying that more than "writer"]. This is the first fanfic that I have tried and looks to me like it will not crash-and-burn before I actually finish it. This is also only the prologue to the longer story so it will not be very long, you get the picture. Thank you for reading!

-BRRP BRRP!- -BRRP BRRP!-

"Wha-?" Said the terra haired boy as he picked up the phone. "Who's calling? What time is it?" He looked at the clock on the aqua nightstand next to his matching bed, "What in the nether world?" It was 2:30 in the morning.

"Sora. Sora, don't freak out on me, okay?" The brunette recalled someone with that very same voice. It was the calm, sexy voice of one of his best friends, Riku.

"What- Why are you calling me at this hour?" Sora was surprised at this unexpected call.

"Oh, sorry. I forgot of the time differences between us." There was a short yet awkward pause between the two boys. "Sora, you remember where I am right?" Another pause, longer than the first, "Sora? Are you-?"

"Oh yeah!" Sora screamed so loud that there was an audible wince of pain coming from the speaker in the phone. "You went to Halloween Town to help out Jack fend off the heartless, right!?"

"Ow, and yes, I did." There was an obvious hint of annoyance towards Riku's friend. "Like I said before, you should have come too, it would have been so much ea-"

"I couldn't, remember? I was in Radiant Garden until just yesterday, I was there when you were informed about Halloween Town." He said with a splash of innocence and I-know-you-know. Riku sighed.

"Well, I'm calling to tell you that everything here's okay now, the heartless are down to a reasonable number and Halloween Town's being secured as we speak. Also," Riku hesitated for an instant, "Kairi was spotted in-"

"What!?" Sora interrupted. "You saw Kairi!? Where? Was she taken again? Or did she-?"

"Sora, she was taken away by the darkness, again."

"And you didn't try to-?"

"Sora-there-was-nothing-I-could-have-done," Riku said matter-of-factly, ending Sora's rant. "I think you should get down here, Sally was the one who saw her, but she said she would only talk to you about it." It was obvious to Sora that he shouldn't stay in Destiny Islands, but there was nothing he could do.

"I'll leave to go in the morning. The pathways are too dangerous to travel, without a keyblade, at night." Sora said regretfully. They said their good-byes and Sora tried to go back to sleep. But no matter what he did, Sora could not calm himself down enough to actually fall asleep. After about an hour, or what seemed like an hour to Sora, he went down to the beach, to listen to the waves.

On the way there all Sora could think about was what Kairi has gone through. In the beginning, her heart had been ripped from her body, then found it's way into Sora's, and her body was empty. She was later found by Sora in Neverland. Where she was taken by Riku to Hollow Bastion, now known as Radiant Garden. Sora released his heart and with it Kairi's, however, he was turned into a heartless, later returned to his self by Kairi. The two were separated after defeating Ansem's heartless, who was really Xehanort's heartless, she in Destiny Islands, and he in the world of King Mickey, Disney Castle. For some strange reason though, Sora has no memory of his adventure, or at least he thinks it was an adventure, in the fields that surrounded Disney Castle. He figures he hit his head hard on a bolder or something. After about a year after he sealed the Door to Darkness, he began the fight against Organization XIII. Which reunited him one again with both Riku and Kairi. After defeating the Organization, and returning to Destiny Islands, Kairi found a letter from the King. After responding to the letter, there was a great battle and in the process, and Kairi had gone "MIA." The King went to go find her in the darkness and has not returned since. However, that was two years ago, Sora's seventeen now, and Kairi had been spotted for the first time since she's been missing. How was he, Sora, suppose to "wait till morning"? When he hasn't been able to summon the keyblade since Kairi's disappearance?

He sat down on the sand, closed his sky-blue eyes, and smelled the salty air. That's when it came to him, the keyblade, Kairi, they must be connected. How, he didn't know. Perhaps the keyblade was trying to tell him something? Perhaps since he's been so depressed now that Kairi's gone, the keyblade has felt him...unworthy? There would be no way for him, or anyone for that matter, to tell until he got to Halloween Town at dawn....Three hours from now.
