Hey, guys, Keyblade Master of Light again and I've made a decision to make a new story, relating to my recent DDD story. I know I said I'd do this after I'm done with Journey of Dreams, but I feel like since they both take place at the same time, I figured why not do a chapter for JOD and then do another one for this. This might sound like a risky thing for me to do, but I wanna challenge myself. Anyway, hope you enjoy this prologue.

On with the show.

Prologue: Realm of Prison

In Divine Kingdom and at the castle gardens the skies are crimson and Fortitudo looks outside from his castle window and sees flames from afar and smoke in the sky.

"What in the name of…?" Fortitudo stops talking.

"What is happening?" Amora asked and sees flames from afar and smoke. "Oh, how horrible!" Amora said.

"Who is invading this kingdom?" Fortitudo asked and he sees seven figures in crimson cloaks and black stars going through the garden along with Black Xetis and Heartless. "This can't be!" Fortitudo said.

"Master, let us fight them!" Fulgur said.

"No, you're still too young. Let me handle this." Fortitudo said taking his Keyblade Light's Guardian and then jumps down and confronts the seven figures which are Narasix, Jeal, Sedia, Ravik, Chubb, Laz, and Monity.

"The Lord of Light shows himself." Narasix said.

"You must be the Brotherhood of Disharmony. I don't know how you got unleashed, but I will protect this kingdom from the likes of you." Fortitudo said.

"Is that so?" Narasix asked.

"Don't bother with him. We'll deal with him." A voice said revealing the white and black haired woman named Hilda and with her is Mortem. "Besides, I think it's time for a little friendly reunion." Hilda said.

"Fine." Narasix said as he and the other six keep going for the castle.

"Hilda, Mortem, I never thought I'd see you again." Fortitudo said.

"Oh, don't be like that. We haven't seen each other in years and we were friends, once upon a time." Hilda said.

"Your kingdom is under the brink of destruction and you're in your futile attempts to save it." Mortem said unsheathing his katana at Fortitudo who backs off and Hilda unleashes a black ethereal blade from above but Fortitudo dodges.

"I understand Mortem's cold behavior, but you, Hilda, have always been twisted, even when we were kids." Fortitudo said.

"Thanks for the flattery. Now, hold still." Hilda said unleashing black blades from the ground but Fortitudo delivers a slash at Hilda and Mortem but then something blocks the Keyblade and it's the masked Malus with his Keyblade Dawn of Despair.

"I am your opponent and you will fall." Malus said.

"You…" Fortitudo said and Malus unleashes a dark corridor around him sending Fortitudo somewhere.

"Go. Get the Prince of Light." Malus said as he disappears in a dark corridor and Hilda and Mortem go for the castle.

In Requiem City at the train station Ky and Nex who are wearing their old clothes are waiting for the train.

"So, you ready for our trip to Sapphire Forest?" Ky asked.

"I guess. This trip better be worth it." Nex said and later the train arrives.

Ky and Nex are later on the train which is moving through the tracks to make its way for Sapphire Forest and during their train ride Ky looks out the window and sees that they're leaving Requiem City but then the sky starts turning black and rain starts to fall.

"Uh, Nex, the sky's turning dark." Ky said.

"Something's off…" Nex said and just then the train starts shaking roughly making the two stumble. "Dammit. We should go look out." Nex said.

Ky and Nex are now outside the train and are now on top of the train and they see the train on fire.

"The train's on fire!" Ky said and thunder roars as lightning comes down.

"How is this possible?" Nex asked and just then something appears in front of them and it's a figure revealing to be Dark Raven.

"Hahahaha! Revived at last! And it seems she was right! You would be here!" Dark Raven said.

"What the…?! Dark Raven?! How's this possible? Wait, is this part of the test?" Ky asked.

"Figure this crap out later! Just focus on the fight!" Nex said taking out Damnation Shadow.

"Right!" Ky said taking out Dawn of Hope.

"Sorry, Prince of Light, but I'm not falling for that trick!" Dark Raven said.

(Boss Theme: Night of Fate)

(Information: Defeat Dark Raven!)

Dark Raven unleashes dark missiles at the two but Ky triple slashes with Dawn of Hope followed by a somersault slash while Nex vertical slashes with Damnation Shadow followed by a brutal double kick and then delivers a shadow punch but Dark Raven unleashes dark puddles on the ground getting the two but Ky cleans them with light and then casts Fire followed by casting Thunder while Nex horizontal slashes with Damnation Shadow followed by a brutal vertical slash but Dark Raven disappears and then reappears and unleashes dark lightning but Nex unleashes a shadow barrier for protection and then unleashes shadow drills from under the raven and strikes while Ky uses Strike Raid but Dark Raven unleashes more dark missiles damaging Ky who casts Cure and then diagonal slashes with Dawn of Hope followed by a slide kick and then delivers a lower horizontal slash while Nex delivers a punch followed by a double kick and then delivers a heavy swing with Damnation Shadow and then delivers an uppercut but Dark Raven disappears and then reappears and unleashes dark puddles but Ky aerial slashes with Dawn of Hope followed by an upper slash and then delivers a wide slash while Nex unleashes shadow fists and delivers punches with them and they manage to finish off Dark Raven.

Dark Raven falls to the ground and then disappears.

"Now what do we do? We can't stop the train." Ky said and they see the train going for a destroyed end road.

"Dammit." Nex said and the train drops at the end of the road and the train starts falling along with Ky and Nex.

Ky and Nex are falling from the train and the air and just then they both summon their Keyblades and they see a Keyhole appear and their Keyblades unleash both beams of light and darkness at the Keyhole making a locked sound and unleashing a powerful blinding light but then Ky looks up to see a figure looking down at them.

Flashback:

Somewhere at Divine Kingdom's castle in the throne room Ky and Nex all stand before Aptus and Elena, Storm, Lucky, Kiyo and Zatch, T.J., Sly, Bentley, Murray, and Griff are standing behind the two.

"As a Keyblade Paragon, Malus had a gift, just as I did, just as Keyblade Masters such as Xehanort, but my brother's mind was corrupted by power, for he had a belief that power only strives and it brings peace and order. He believed the answer would be found in the 'Keyblade War' and corrupting Kingdom Hearts with darkness. Malus' selfish desires for power and wanting Kingdom Hearts for his own ends created a conflict between us. I have gained the upper hand and I had I no choice but seal him away, but he had other plans. Since then, while Xehanort clashed with light's defenders, Malus had his minions to help him and they assisted with that conflict with those light's defenders…Keyblade wielders, like yourselves. My brother will trouble us once more, and the time has come for him to return. You must stand ready. This is why, you, Prince Virtus and Nex are to be tested for the mark of a true Keyblade Master. Yen Sid has already arranged Noel, Pax, Sora, and Riku for their own mark of the test. You six might fancy yourselves Keyblade Masters already, but there's more than just training. A true master can teach you the right way. You six have proven yourselves to be excellent self-taught Keyblade wielders and I am impressed. However, you must now let go of your preconceived notions. Forget everything you know about the Keyblade and start over with a clean slate." Aptus said shocking everyone.

"Y-You're serious…?! C'mon, you know I've proven myself time and time again. Me, Nex, Noel, Pax, and Sora…we can handle ANYTHING." Ky said.

"Easy for you to say. You realize I'm nothing more than a creature of the dark." Nex said summoning his old Keyblade Death's Embrace. "I've been on the path of darkness for too long. I've done plenty of crimes. How can I be sure to become worthy of the Keyblade? What do I have to prove?" Nex asked.

"Nex… Well, then put ME in! I'll be tested! Just watch me! Nex and I'll pass no problem! I know for a fact Noel, Pax, Sora, and Riku will also pass!" Ky said.

"Very well, then. Virtus, Nex, your examination begins now!" Aptus said.

Flashback End.

Well, that's the prologue. Since I already did both first chapters for Noel, Pax, Sora, and Riku already, here's what I'll do. I will first make a first chapter for this story and then after I get done with it, I will then get back to JOD with its first world to visit on both sides, then get back to this one with its first world. That's gonna be my plan at this point. Lemme know what you think of my idea and I'd love to hear what suggestions you have. Anyway, next time, Ky and Nex end up at a city Ky's familiar with and they come across many people, who are prisoners in the city. I'll see you all in the next chapter. Don't forget to favorite, follow, and review. Thanks and I'll see you next time!
