A Second Chance

Prologue

This story will be almost 100% about KH characters

Main partners: Reader x Ven, Vanitas, Sora, Riku, Roxas, Axel

I might add more later, but the main point of this story is for the plot. This series will move very differently than Chasing/Cheating Destiny. As in, don't expect any romance for a LONG time XD

The first 10-20 chapters will be based around Birth By Sleep. Then the real plot will begin. As my loyal readers know, I like to keep things fun, so there will be plenty of fluff and jokes along the way. I promise!

Reader will only be 15-16 for the beginning, then she'll grow older along with everyone else.

The whoosh of a Keyblade swings over your head, sending your hair swirling from the sudden wave of air as you duck underneath it just in time. You roll out of the way, resting on your back as you point your Keyblade at your attacker, sending a barrage of ice at him. He blocks your attack with a flick of his blade, sending a wall of flames right for you. With a quick roll, you evade the fire and hop to your feet, stumbling for a moment before you recover and turn to face him.

You're greeted by the tip of a blade to your throat, as well as a smug grin.

"I win," your tall friend brags with a tilt of his head as he retracts his Keyblade, resting it across his broad shoulders as he takes a step back from you.

"You have, like, a foot on me, Terr. Not exactly fair," you complain with a small pout as you disappear your Keyblade with a wave of your hand.

Terra, the tall brunet with whom you've been training daily for over two years and a fellow Keybearer. There aren't many known Keybearers left in the worlds. You suspect there's more out there in hiding, but as of now, only three live with your Master – Master Eraqus – in the Land of Departure, where he trains your small group in becoming Keyblade Masters.

Keybearers used to roam the worlds, fighting off darkness and keeping light alive. There were hundreds of them so many years ago, living amongst the people in peace.

That is, until the Keyblade War. Most perished in this war, their lines dying with them and leaving the worlds all too vulnerable to the darkness. Very few remain, with even fewer Masters walking amongst us. So, when one is found, they're snatched up and sent to train with Master Eraqus, a strict-yet-kind dark-haired man who's as wise as he is skilled.

You were sent to Master Eraqus at the ripe age of 10, and have stayed with him since then. Three long years have been spent training every day, learning the old skills of Keyblade wielding to someday protect the worlds against the ever-growing darkness.

It's a lonely existence that's only made better by your two friends and training partners. There's Terra and Aqua. Aqua's a very pretty blue-haired girl with more spunk and brains than you could ever dream of having, only to be coupled with her exceedingly impressive skills with magic. She and Terra make formidable partners, especially since they're both older than you and incredibly talented.

"Don't use height as an excuse, [Name]," Terra scolds, swinging an arm around your shoulder as he hauls you away from the sprawling grass at the mountain's base to lead you back to the castle in the distance.

The castle in the Land of Departure rests between two mountain's peaks, hanging by thick, golden chains. It looks rather precarious and unsafe, but Master Erqaus has confirmed more than once upon your questioning that it's indeed secure enough to hold up the building. It's a beautiful, quiet world that's somehow become more of a home than Radiant Garden had ever been. While you miss your family and friends, there's nothing you'd exchange in the world for your current life.
