So my GF loved the first chapter so much that she asked to write it with me, we've been discussing what we want to do for the past month or so and have decided upon our plan. First we're gonna rewrite this first chapter to fit our idea and then we'll continue from their. Enjoy.

Everything moved by so quickly, wind blew through his hair as he fell. Where he fell from and where he fell to he had know clue, his body wouldn't react to his commands, instead everything was just numb. As he fell the only thing he could think about was how beautiful the sky was, the stars were so bright, the shattered moon looked so close.

Roxas had no idea how long he'd spent falling, seconds, minutes? It didn't really matter, soon enough he'd hit...

The Xiao Long residence

Ruby laid back in her bed staring at the ceiling, she'd finished her homework from Signal and was bored. Everyone else was asleep but she wasn't tried, turning her head she looked out the window and at the night sky. On a whim she hopped out of bed and threw on her shoes, Zwei lifted his head at the sound of her moving around and quickly hopped off the bed and followed after his mistress.

As she walked towards the front door Ruby grabbed her beloved scythe and slid it onto her back. "Come on Zwei, let's go for a walk." She whispered to the little corgi before slipping out the front door and into the crisp night air.

The pair walked for nearly half an hour before reaching the edge of the Island they lived on, light waves splashed against the sandy shore. Sitting down in the sand Ruby pulled Zwei into her lap enjoying his warmth. "Hey Zwei, do you ever wonder if Remnant is alone is the universe? Or do you think there might be other worlds out there to, and if there are, why did we end up on this one?" Ruby looked down at the dog curled up in her lap.

Smiling Ruby looked back up into the sky, her smile only lowered slightly when a small burst of light appeared high in the sky. From this burst a single streak of light soared across the sky towards the ocean. She didn't know why she decided to take such interest in the falling object, maybe it was because falling stars were rare, maybe it was fate, but something made her stand and pull out her scythe and extend the scope and take a closer look.

Zooming in on the object her eyes widened and instantly she dropped her scythe before also pulling off her hood and shoes. "Zwei watch my stuff!" She told the pup before diving into the water.

Earlier

A tall man in pure white robes with shining white hair stood with his hand on the chest of a hooded man holding a large scythe, after several seconds of standing still the man in the hood began convulsing and screaming as a pillar of light enveloped him. Once the light dispersed the hooded man was gone leaving only two people in the circular room surrounded by tall chairs.

The man in white turned his attention to the final member of the group and began walking towards him as he futilely attempted to call forth a corridor of darkness, however just as everyone who'd tried after this mans arrival he failed. As the lasted hooded person backed away in fear he didn't notice as he back into a wall. Turning to see the wall the hooded man panicked and held out his hand calling forth his weapons, a pair of large ornate looking keys. Running towards the man in white in a last attempt at defiance he swung the black one of the two at the man only for him to raise his hand and catch the blade, swinging with the other the same thing happened.

"Keyblades? Such regretful creations." He spoke for the first time since his arrival, his voice was both soothing and terrifying all at once. It was as if millions of voices were blended together to form this mans singular voice. "Made to be tools of salvation but have ended up causing more chaos and suffering than anything else. What else could you expect however, from something made to throw off the balance?" The man shook his head with an almost sad expression. "Do you understand what I'm saying boy?" The man clenched his hands dispelling the two keyblades and raising his hand to the boys hood and pulling it off his head revealing his face.

"What are you?" The boy spoke nearly trembling.

"I am a small portion of what you call Kingdom Hearts given form in order to prevent your group from completing your goal. If your were to summon the entirety of Kingdom Hearts it would most certainly destroy this universe. Within the body you see before you are the hearts of millions upon millions of people, eleven of which I've just parted with." The man explained. "I did not destroy everyone here boy, only your leader who knew just what he nearly wrought. I returned to each their hearts, something I'd like to do for you as well."

The boy with blonde hair and blue eyes stared in awe at the man before him. "You can give me a heart?"

The man closed his eyes with a frown. "Unfortunately I cannot, your heart is currently in possession of it's original owner. You are a unique case Roxas, unlike anything that's come before you. I cannot give you a heart that isn't yours." The man explained kneeling down slightly to get on the shorter boys eye level, he could see the despair forming in the boys eyes. "But that doesn't mean you cannot forge one yourself." Poking the boys chest with his finger he smiled. "You may not have a heart now, but you do feel. You have a friend who cares for you."

The boy looked like he was thinking for a moment. "Axel."

"Indeed, through your friendship with him and others you will create in the future I'm certain you will gain a heart of your own. So smile and don't given to despair, don't end up like your leader did. A being so weak he could not bare the weight of his own heart and chose to trade it for darkness." The man stood back to his full height. "Remember this always Roxas. Darkness is not evil and light is not good, they simply are. You cannot have one without the other, attempting to tip the balance for either side will always end poorly. Now it's time for you to go." The man placed a hand on top of the younger boys head. "Goodbye Roxas, live your own life." With those words the boy was enveloped in a pillar of light and disappeared.

Unknown Location

Roxas groaned as he cracked open his eyes. "I'm alive." He spoke quietly to himself as he lifted his hand to his face. "Kingdom Hearts." He whispered as he forced himself to sit up.

Looking around he found himself sitting in a bed, the room he was in was rather bare. It had the bed he laid in, a dresser with a mirror and a desk and chair. Looking down at himself he saw the his clothes were missing, all he wore were a pair of athletic shorts the felt to large for him. "Where am I?" He asked not expecting any answer. Pulling the blanket off of him he moved to stand up from the bed only for his legs to give out the moment he tried to put weight on them. There wasn't any pain in his legs, instead they just felt weak, his entire body felt like this in fact.

With a great deal of effort he managed to force himself to his knees. "Dammit." He cursed to himself at his inability to even stand.

"Need some help kid?" A voice spoke up startling him and causing him to loose his balance and fall back to the floor. Looking up at the source he saw a man with grayish black hair wearing a gray and white collared shirt, a tattered red cape hung from his back. He stood leaning against the door frame arms crossed.

Roxas glared at the man from the floor. "Who are you, where am I?"

Raising an eyebrow the man stepped forward and grabbed Roxas by his shorts and picked him up before tossing him back onto the bed. Walking around to the chair next to the desk and took a seat, the hate in Roxas's eyes at being thrown around like that didn't seem to bother him. "The names Qrow and this is my brothers house. Though to be honest I'm far more curious about who you are." He explained reaching into his shirt and pulling out a flask. "You see, about three days ago my niece comes bursting into the house at nearly two in the morning soaking wet shouting about having just pulled some boy out of the ocean. Most would be skeptical but she's such a good girl we followed her back to where she left you. She said she had seen you fall from the sky in a burst of light and fall into the ocean. She put herself in great deal of danger swimming all the way out to save your ass, so mind explaining just how it is you ended up falling out of the sky?"

Roxas's glared lighten as he listened, someone had saved his life and had given him shelter. After nearly a minute of silence he let out a sigh. "We were attacked, me and my... friends. A man in white appeared in a flash of light and killed our leader, then one by one he touched us. A bright light engulfed us each time and when the light faded the one he touched was gone. I was the last, he told me he didn't kill anyone but our leader, he said he was sending us away, then he touched me. After that I remember a bright light and then the moon." Roxas mostly told the truth, in his time with the organization he'd learned not only the importance of discretion but also how to lie. Luxord had once told him that the most convincing lies carried nuggets of truth in them.

The man just sat quietly staring at him for several minutes before standing up and walking towards the door. "Wait, the one who saved me, where is she?"

"School." Qrow responded before stopping in the doorway. "What's your name kid?"

"Roxas."

He nodded. "Roxas, weird name." With that Qrow left the room.

Hours later

Roxas stood before the mirror wearing his freshly cleaned coat, all of his clothes had been cleaned in fact. Holding out his hand he called forth his keyblade and in a flash of light it appeared in his hand, after a few seconds he dismissed the blade once more. Moving towards the door he walked out began making his way towards the front door, pushing it opened he walked outside. After walking a few feet away from the house he turned and looked back at it. It was a simple yet nice looking home, definitely more inviting then what he was use to.

"You're just gonna leave without thanking anyone, that's rude." Qrow said from his position in a tree, he sat comfortably on a branch flask in hand.

Roxas looked up at him and shrugged. "I just don't want to be a bother."

"Well you should at least thank Ruby for pulling you out of the water before you go, you owe her that much." Qrow jumped down from the high branch and only stumbled lightly upon landing.

Roxas sighed. "I guess you're right."

"Glad to hear it, they should be coming over the hill any minute now." As if on cue they heard a shout.

"Uncle Qrow, come sign my cast!"

Turning to the source the two saw a trio of people coming over the hill. A blonde girl who looked about the same age as Roxas was wearing a school uniform of some kind, next to her was an older man who also had blonde hair. On the mans back however was a girl with black and red hair wearing the same uniform as the blonde girl. On her leg was wrapped a thick white cast. "What the hell happened to you?"

The girl looked embarrassed. "I was practicing with my semblance and tried to make a sharp turn, the doctor said I broke my ankle in two places." She scratched the back of her head sheepishly. Looking at Roxas her eyes widened. "You're awake!"

Roxas gave a weak smile not quite sure how to handle the situation. "Yeah." He nodded awkwardly. "So you hurt your leg?" He asked looking at the cast.

Ruby blushed slightly. "Yeah, it was a stupid mistake."

Roxas was quiet for a moment before getting an idea. "I could heal it for you if you want." He offered surprising all present.

"You can heal people? Is that your semblance or something?" The blonde girl asked curiously.

"Semblance? No, I can heal it with magic." This earned a laughed from the two girls and a grin from the man, Qrow however couldn't stop the frown from appearing on his face. "Here, set her down and I'll show you." Roxas said with a light blush from being laughed at.

The man looked at the girl on his back who shrugged and gently set her down on the ground before stepping away. Roxas stepped closer to the girl on the ground and held out his hand, in a bright flash of light the Oathkeeper appeared in his hand surprising everyone. Thrusting the blade into the air Roxas called on his magic energy. "HEAL!" In a spectacular light show a large flower bloomed above them and surrounded Ruby in a bright light.

After a few moments the light faded and Ruby gently touched her leg before trying to stand, after only a few second of putting weight on the limb she became giddy and began bouncing up and down. "Wow, it doesn't hurt at all, that's amazing! How did you do that?!" Ruby looked to the Nobody with wide excited eyes. The two blondes stared in amazement while Qrow looked ready to faint.

"I told you, magic." He crossed his arms with a smug smile. "But anyway, I know it doesn't compare to saving my life, but thanks. And thank you for taking care of me until I wake up as well. I really hope I'll see you all again soon."

"Wait, you're leaving? Where are you going?" The blonde man finally spoke up.

"I need to go find my friends, we got separated. I told Qrow the whole story when I woke up." Roxas explained.

"Well if you're leaving then let me give you some money for a boat ride to the mainland, I know you're broke after cleaning your clothes." He responded.

Roxas smiled and shook his head. "Thanks but I'm okay, I've got other ways of getting around."

"Let me guess, magic?" The blonde girl asked.

Roxas laughed. "Something like that."

"Well then at least promise you'll drop by again sometime and say hello." Ruby pleaded with a pair of sparkling silver eyes. Looking at the girl Roxas could help but feel she reminded him of someone, someone he couldn't for the life of him put his finger on.

After a moment he smiled and nodded. "I promise." He nodded before taking several steps away from everyone. Holding out his hand he formed a corridor of darkness. "Thank you all again." With those words he stepped into the portal and disappeared soon followed by the portal itself.

The four stood staring at where he'd disappeared for nearly a minute with varying degrees of amazement. They were soon brought out of their shock by the sound of Qrow collapsing to the ground unconscious.

There we go, we'll try to get these chapters out more quickly. Please leave a review and let us know what you all think. LATER.
