Night Alone: From Great to Unknown
A world that was long forgotten. Shadowed figures attempted to break into the world, but the barrier protected it from everything. But the dark ones knew the barrier would break. It was only a matter of time.
A man in a hooded cloak watched as the attacks kept coming. He turned to the other hooded members of the council he had gathered.
"It is time to bring back those who deserve their second chance. Council men, please assist me in the ritual." The hooded men began to chant an ancient spell and in the center of their circle opened a portal of light. From it rose 6 figures, each wearing a black hooded robe just like them. They removed their hoods to reveal their faces. One had fiery red hair, another spiky golden brown. For the other two men in the group, one had silvery blue hair and the other spiked brown hair. The two girls in the group had short black hair and the other short blonde hair. They looked confused as to where they were. Then they noticed the men in cloaks around them and stepped back to form a circle with their backs turned towards one another.
"Peace, friends once thought gone. We have returned you to the world of the living. Don't fear us. We are the guardians. Kingdom Hearts has named you as the ones who deserve a second chance in this life. This time, however, you will not be a Nobody, but a real person with a real heart. Accept the task before you and you may live as you should have been able to."
The group turned to look at the spiky golden brown haired man. He nodded to them and they accepted the assignment. "What do we have to do?"
"A young man has reached the truth of his identity. He is from another world, but it is world of falsehood. He must be retrieved to fulfill his destiny." The mystery man paused and turned to two hooded figures waiting outside the ring. He summoned them over. "These two will assist you. One has lived on this world and knows what needs to be done. The other is a leader who needs help securing his world once you have the young man. Now go. Your portal awaits."
The eight individuals walked to a portal awaiting them. The first few walked straight in, but the golden brown haired man stopped the one who had lived on this world. He looked to them and asked, "Before we go, can I at least have a name?"
"Mine or the man we're going get?" the hooded figure asked in a female voice.
"Both."
"The man's name is Zak Saturday. You may call me Shira." With that, they stepped into the portal.
Secret Saturday World, New Saturday home
Zak was waiting with his parents as a jeep pulled up to the compound. It had been about 2 years since he discovered he was Kur. He had come to terms with it and moved on. Nothing bad had happened. Although, every month his parents left him to go and meet with the other Secret Scientists. They would alternate who would watch him while they went to the meeting. Last time, it had been a weird lady who kept speaking to "spirits". Hope this time it's someone better, Zak thought.
The jeep came to a halt and out popped a girl who made Zak's heart pause. She still wore the same outfit after the past two years. Except that she no longer wore her black head gear. She let her brown hair flow freely. Zak noticed he was staring and shifted his eyes to her father.
"Sorry I'm late Saturdays. I had to bring my daughter with me as a last minute thing." he said, indicating his daughter.
"It's no problem. Zak and Wadi will be fine. Right Zak?" Doc asked his son.
"What do you mean?" Zak wondered, confused at what his dad was saying.
"You get to stay home without a scientist watching you. We expect you to behave and don't do anything we wouldn't approve of or next time we will leave you with supervision." Drew told her son. Zak couldn't believe them. I get to stay home without anyone else? YES! Wait, they're leaving me with Wadi? OH CRAP! Zak thought and realized. He had come to terms with his crush on Wadi, but hadn't really done anything about it.
"Now you kids be good alright?" their parents asked before heading off in the jeep. They went back inside the compound and headed for the kitchen. Wadi made some soup and Zak made sandwiches. As they were eating, they talked about what they had been up to.
"So, where are Doyle and your siblings?" Wadi asked.
"Doyle took off after he found out I was Kur. Said something about trying to figure out what he wanted to do about this whole Kur thing. My siblings went off to their original homes and haven't returned." Zak answered, sadness creeping into his voice.
"Oh, sorry." Wadi remarked, embarrassed she made him remember sad moments.
"Don't be, it's not your fault. So, what do you want to do tonight?"
"How about watching a movie?" Wadi suggested. "I'll make the popcorn and you can pick out the movie."
"OK." Zak answered, leaving to go pick a movie. He walked to the living room and looked at the movies they had. He almost went with a romance one, but decided to go with a horror movie instead. He was sure Wadi wouldn't be scared of it, but if she did he thought it would be an excuse to cuddle.
When everything was set, they settled on the couch and started the movie. Halfway through the movie, Wadi actually got scared and wrapped her arms around Zak. They finished the movie and Wadi noticed she had her arms wrapped around Zak. She blushed brightly just as Zak did and let go of him. She looked away and refused to look at him.
"Zak?" Wadi inquired as she turned to face him. Her green eyes stared right into his. "I've been meaning to ask you, what do you think of me?"
"Well, you're smart, funny, athletic, and…" Zak half-answered.
"And what?" Wadi pressed on.
"Well, beautiful." Zak finished. When he saw Wadi blush even more he asked, "What about you? What do you think of me?"
"About the same. Except I think you're hot." Wadi replied. Then Zak turned redder just like Wadi. They stared at each other leaning closer with each second. Then, a loud crash sounded down the hall.
"What was that?" Wadi asked. Zak hated that the moment was ruined. They got up and went to investigate. When they got to the end of the hall, they saw something moving.
A strange shadow was moving about the kitchen. It walked as if it were in a crouch and had long antenna like things coming out of its' head. It seemed like a cryptid, it acted kind of like a cryptid, but Zak had a sinking feeling that it wasn't a cryptid. His fears were only confirmed when his powers didn't work on it. Crap, of all days for Mom and Dad to be gone! Zak thought. The creature noticed them. It warbled some strange sound and the next thing they knew, more of them showed up.
"Wadi, RUN!" Zak yelled, grabbing his claw and using it to clobber the one that jumped at them. They ran back to the living room and turned to face their intruders. They had vanished. Then Zak noticed them coming out of the walls. What the hell are these things? The creatures jumped at them. Wadi and Zak used their fists and Zak's claw to beat them back, but it was only a matter of time before they were overwhelmed.
One of them managed to get a hold of Wadi. When she screamed for Zak, he was caught off guard and grabbed by two more. They tried to struggle, but the creatures were too strong. Laughter came from all around them. They froze as a figure walked out of the shadows. He was dressed in a simple black suit, wearing a white mask, and clapping. Zak noticed a weird heart like symbol on the front of the suit on the man's chest.
"Hahahaha. Feisty, aren't we?" the unknown man asked. As he stopped clapping, four more individuals dressed like him appeared. "This is just like a kid. We'll have to fix that."
"Enough, we need to get moving before they arrive." a man wearing a green mask said.
"Yes, we should be on our way. Oh, and little boy? You should be grateful we need you alive or else I'd enjoy striking you done right now." the white masked man said. He motioned for the creatures to bring him over to them. "The girl, well, let the creatures deal with her."
"No, I won't let you harm her!" Zak yelled, fighting the strength of the two creatures holding him. Just as they reached the man, a portal opened up. Eight figures jumped out. They were wearing black hooded robes. The one in front looked at the scene, made a strange blade appear in both of his hands, and jumped at the creatures holding Zak. He sliced through them and freed Zak. The others moved to fight the others. Two of them moved to help Wadi. The others attacked the creatures and thee mystery people. One hooded person had a book that cast magic at them. Another had spiked wheel blades and threw them around, fire springing from them as they flew. One had this huge guitar like weapon. The last two summoned blades similar to the one the man who saved Zak had.
"You insolent guardians! Stay out of this!" a yellow masked woman cried out dodging attacks from the one with a guitar.
"You Runari never learn do you? The power of the Supreme Guardian known as Kur will never be yours!" a female voice said, coming from one of the individuals with a strange blade. As Zak looked, he noticed it looked like a key. The newcomers were defeating the intruders. When they saw they were loosing, a man and woman in twin red and blue masks opened a large portal.
"We need to go!" they both yelled. Their comrades turned to jump into the portal when one of the keyblade wielders slashed one of the portal openers. The portal started going crazy sucking everything and everyone into the portal.
"You fools! What have you done?" the white masked man said before being sucked into the portal.
"Zak! Help me!" Wadi screamed. She was hanging onto the couch as the portal started to suck her in. Wadi was loosing her grip. Zak ran for her, but he barely missed her. She went flying into the portal, closely followed by two of the newcomers. The portal sucked in the last of the room's occupants before closing. The room was deserted and looked like a tornado had hit it.
Portal Realm
Zak was floating along the portal tunnel when some of the newcomers floated next to him. Zak counted six of them. They each still had their hoods up. Zak struggled to get to the one closest to him.
"Where are we going?" Zak inquired.
"To your true home." the person replied. Zak recognized it as the voice of the woman who argued with the people she called Runari. Zak awaited the portal to open up wherever they were going, pondering what she meant.
Beach
A young boy with spiky brown hair was walking along the beach of his friends' secret hideout. They were with him now. They were discussing the events they had just gone through when they saw three people on the beach unconscious. One was wearing a pair of pinkish pants, a purple long sleeve, and black boots. She had long brown hair. The other two people were wearing black hooded robes. The boy and his friends ran over to them.
The girl with red hair and a pink outfit on checked the girl. The other guy with silvery blue hair and a blue and yellow outfit checked on male robed person. He removed the guy's hood to reveal a man with a scar along his cheek and black hair that was a little spiked. The boy knelt down to the female robed person and cradled her head before removing it. He froze as they all recognized the girl. They thought she had vanished awhile back. "What's going on?" the boy inquired.
