Keyblade War: The Commencement

Sora and Kairi looked around the pure white castle on the world of Kingdom Hearts. Their footsteps echoed on the brilliant white flooring. They hadn't been here in so long. "Do you think he'll tell us?"

"I don't know, I'm sure it's a touchy subject but, there's no harm in asking." Sora looked up at the window behind the white thrones and called out. "Oukoku! Are you there?"

The glowing image of the ancient Keyblade wielder appeared. "Hello Sora, Kairi. It's good to see you. It's been a while."

"Yea, things have been a little… busy…"

"Oh," Oukoku took notice of the ring on Kairi's hand, the gold glittering with the pink diamond, "I can see that." He chuckled as their faces became stained red. "I guess congratulations are in order."

"Thank you, Oukoku."

The ancient man looked at them and at the notebook in Kairi's hands. "However, I do not believe that this is a social call, am I right?" They nodded. "I see… what do you want to ask me?"

"Oukoku," the Princess of Heart gave him a gentle smile. "I've begun recording all of our adventures in novels, I change all our names but, it allows others to hear our stories and… I was wondering, would you be willing to tell me your story so that I can write it down so that everyone can hear the truth?"

"You want to write my story down?" He eyebrows raised in surprise; longing and sorrow filled his eyes as memories of the Keyblade War filled his mind.

"If you don't want to, that's ok."

"No," Oukoku walked over to them, "The worlds deserve to know what really happened then; with all the rumors and legends, the truth must be told." He looked around, "However, it is a long tale and there are more comfortable places to tell it."

Sitting down on the silver-white cushions of the couches, Kairi pulled out her pen and opened her notebook. "I'm ready whenever you are… I know this may be hard for you to tell so, feel free to take your time."

Oukoku stared out the window at the heart-shaped moon… at his lingering sentiment. "I am ready. Would it be alright with you if I narrated the beginning part?"

"Go ahead, it's your story." Kairi adjusted her position as her husband laid down on the couch to listen to the story. Sora gave her an encouraging smile, knowing she'd waited long for this.

"Ok…" the ancient Keyblade Master came over and sat across from them, on another couch. "There are many tale and legends about the Keyblade War." He began, with Kairi faithfully writing every word he said. "Many stories told, many songs sung, many legends passed down. All true in their own way but, none as true as what I tell you now. For I lived in that day, I experienced the war, I saw what happened with my own eyes. I lost all I held dear, and gained nothing but a responsibility and pain. My name is Oukoku Gatsu, and this is my story…"

Kris:

Ladies and Gentlemen, we have begun the Keyblade War story!

If you haven't read my KH3 story, you don't know who Oukoku is and all these characters will be new to you…

Give a big hand to my co-writer, Jayla the Panda for joining me in the endeavor.

These chapters may come out a bit slower because we both have to read over and approve them. Please be patient.

Love you guys!

Jayla: Hi guys! I'm Jayla the Panda, the new co-writer! I hope everyone enjoys the chapter. There wasn't much to add because Kristen is such a great author, but I gave it my best shot. Again, enjoy! :D
