Kingdom Hearts: Build ur own Idol

, ,

Summary:

Charlotte's edit: "What if ?"

What if wars could destroy time itself to try to erase themselves ? Would it make the destruction worth it ? If the consequences were only yours to command ?

Protagonists are written to summarize a story's tone and model to either oppose or emulate. This universe's used to this princess type of knight named Sora. But one of his shadows was encouraged and told by another entity to alter this, creating a new story. A new story means new protagonists. How many will we have, I wonder. And more important than number, what will the tone be once it is introduced ?

Notes:

Some may not see yet what I'm trying to transmit in the fics I write. That, and I have a hard time being patient to not allow a preview, at least. So I hope this series will help people understand what I have planned for my little multiverse here. How the stories connect. But the "KH" series itself will only come out later in the future. This right here, is just so I'll let some emotional issues I have with the canon series out. That, and to give people a taste of my vision for "Kingdom Hearts"

My "KH" saga will not come out yet. But this story will give you a glimpse of my plans for the series. So we start with a new beginning brought by Roxas, and a few alternative bad endings from some "FF" games. And it's perfect, really, because while Sora IS my favorite character in the saga, I think for a series focused around friendship, the role of protagonist should be a little more shared. So I introduce you the coming universe. To show you my idea of sharing, especially when involving Naminé in the sharing.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Chapter 1: At the beggining and at the end, there is only chaos

Summary:

Roxas, inside Sora, is possessed by Akuma Homura's Love.

Notes:

I think I'll include more lust in my series. I AM including non-Disney versions of the stories after all. It's only fair I make some of the main cast less clean. They ARE teens after all. Child soldiers, or not, they have the right to be kids their age.

Also, when you picture the characters speaking, I'd appreciate if you mixed JP and English audio. For example, I picture Roxas's voice in his JP dub, which sounds more kid like, which is fitting, because he's technically only 1 year old. As for Sora's, I imagine his English dub voice to be how he hears himself, while JP is how other people listen to his voice.

The rest, I leave up to you. When the series actually begins, that is. Bye, bye ! Enjoy this little intro to my version of "KH".

Chapter Text

Riku: Sora, you don't believe that. I know you don't.

 

Valor. That's what they like to call the mindset behind heroes who spring into action head on. It was that mindset that led Riku, the white haired, co-dependent angelic knight, to stand in front of his other half. He thrusted his Keyblade right in front of that wave of Darkness. His sacrifice was meant to inspire Sora. To encourage him to keep fighting on and live for the present moment. But a repressed, frustrated boy could never withstand the blunt of an entire universe's darkness.

However, to be fair to the young man, his enemy lacked even more mental preparation. For if he was well informed, he would know the mere clash of all that darkness against the two spectrums of Light incarnated, leads to a momentary balance focused right at the location of the clashing point. And if during that perfectly neutral moment, craziness is present in the mind and heart of the beholder, a crack is formed. Riku's overcompensating sacrifice, mixed with Sora's grief and ultimate desire to change all that by whatever means necessary, led their Hearts to clash against the dark wall even after death. And because Sora's heart is a keep, they were overpowered in their resistance. And at that moment, they cracked the very fabric of reality between them.

 

Homura (echoing): I did not expect you to understand. This emotion is for Madoka only. Deeper than despair. And brighter than hope.

 

But it was not this universe's destiny to be assimilated by this swamp of inhumanely shifting colors that momentarily slipped. Instead, these colors were to be taken in by a heart who believed "Might makes right." A conviction he still holds onto firmly, even as he accepts help to free himself. A bug in reality whose story brings more confort to the outcasts, than some co-dependent savior ever could. A Frankenstein blessing. Roxas.

His birth came from Darkness. And without a body, an ego to temper his inherent instincts with intimate, personal love, Homura instinctively found a kindred spirit. Her colors latched on to that heart concealed within another's heart, promising him to fulfill his truest wish, no matter the repercurssions. His neighbours avoided all of her from leaking, so she could not drag the universe into merging with her own. But the colors left were more than enough to plan the seed to birth another. All they had to do was rewind time all around the blond, spiky kaired boy back to his lowest point, and rewrite his universe's end according to his desires. The colors remained even as time and space reversed. They were the unmovable object in this move they coreographed.

Notes:

Expect to see some worlds having an actual impact on the story, and the side cast having arcs of their own. Aphrodite's is to be less like her Olympian peers. The loss of Troy and Ares, mixed with Kratos's (I'm mixing original mythology with "God of War" lore) will have an actual impact on her.

Chapter 2: Kingdom Hearts's larger, younger sister[s]

Chapter Text

The details behind Roxas' fall from grace on his past universe will come later. I believe we should get ahead of ourselves at the moment. Explore the new universe that followed his fall, as he took what Hearts he could from the original Kingdom Hearts, and horded them around this space between universes, around the celestial body forming there from women united by their flaws and desires for happiness. These Hearts gave them the final confort they needed to feel at peace being united like this, and to make the Goddess Kaname Madoka understand ideals beyond mutual confort also existed. Madoka vowed to herself this Heart shaped moon now formed would always be looked after by her, and she'd use the extended warmth she had gained from these Hearts that came to help to expand their hopes and dreams to those who'd be born across the Frankenstein multiverse that had just formed, and this multiverse would "walk" across the Omniverse that donated bits of it to nurture it.

As u see, not all was bad of this small cruelty born from multiple stories. It helped a Goddess' growth and the creation of a humanoid shaped multiverse that had the mission to help other multiverses that had lost bits of themselves as they were pulled here. Though it also kept an entire universe from birthing at the Heart's area. For now, it was a singular world on that area, while the rest of the multiverse had whole universes on each part.

And this is where this two parted preface stops. Time to go to the world itself and its story.

Chapter 3: The droplet tower

Notes:

I did not recall the name of the pyramid used to divide Alessa and create Cheryl and Heather. But I do recall what pieces I want to be born from Naminé, so the entire kingdom is looked after as her personal big doll.

(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)

Chapter Text

Once upon a time, at a high tower, there was a Princess. A Princess locked away at the top of a Tower shaped like a tear fallen from an eye.  This Princess lived in a room filled with all sorts material conforts, surrounded by shadows visible in the corners. These shadows were constantly whispering in all the Princess's waking moment, begging her to reach the Earth's core. Thay said if she did it, they would become able to perform the biggest magic tricks, comparable even to the secluded beings of lunar and sunlight that lived just outside and above the kingdom that housed her Tower. But none below. NEVER below. They explained there were other Realms that had already accomplished this feat. They had made dragons out of simple lizards, and turned gaming cards into friends available for life. But one of the shadows also made the mistake of explaining how there were worlds without Darkness or Light. The intent had been to explain to her how those worlds, in spite of lacking those elements, craved and tried to replicate them, so it was inevitable to summon them. But that explanation only reminded her of these special tears that made people see things as prettier than they really were. Daddy had adviced against them. And for good reason. She had a Witch to look after. Witches like tricks to get away with their childish mischief. A caretaker is always sober, unlike what Miss Poppins might have suggested when she looked after her, Alessa, on her first years.

Mary Poppins had certainly been an interesting witch. But she's not one that merrits attention. The one merriting attention is the one laying on her bed at the moment. facing the roof. Naminé, her name seemed to be. Alessa remembered it from the dream. She was a most peculiar...pet. She was purely flesh and skin most of the time. But when it was required to care for her, her torso was turned into some sort of shadow itself, but held together by colorful runes. This had been a development different from the dream. In the dream, the Witch was transparent, and overlapped another girl, as if they existed at the same time. Until another boy(s) touched them, and the spiky haired one, along with the Witch, overlapped the whole scenario, always looking at each other. She had not liked the majority of the people at the dream, not even its victims. She had only liked the boy and the Witch. That's why it scared her so much when the background went dark, the two became fully solid, and the Witch had countless hands cover her entire body and claim it, recoiling themselves and her to another place. Perhaps to her memories. So detailed, Alessa simply had to recreate her. Recreate her to give to her mommy. But her mama prefered to spend time with the Princess instead of the Witch. She had explained the Witch may have been the child chosen to represent the Kingdom's purpose. But she wanted her daughter to get all the credit, so that she may get frineds and love forever, even after she was gone. Friends to protect Alessa from herself, forever. She constantly had told her she should not have fashioned this blond doll from the crimson haired Angel her daddy kept locked in display to him and his apprentices to get inspirations and dreams from. But daddy had supported Alessa's decision. Still, to calm mommy's head and Heart, they fashioned a small pyramid that could tear apart and cut in half the power within the Witch. The object had been placed in the Witch's void on her chest, passing off for her Heart. It was for that reason Alessa was now putting her hand onto the Witch's torso. Until:

 

-Alessa, sweetie, I'm back. - daddy, dressed in his usual hood, covering his entire figure and shadowing his eyes. - So, I know this is sudden, but I'll cut to the chase. Would u mind coming with me, please ? Feel free to bring the Witch from the future. I was finishing up the last touches before coming up.

 

He summoned his Keyblade, and removed its keychain, reverting it back to its most basic form. Hhe gave it to Alessa, who then put the Keychain on Naminé's stomach, making the metalic obeject grow large enough to allow Alessa to put some distance between them, so she could drag the Witch behind her. Once outside the room, she, the father and Naminé took a short elevator ride to the rooftop. Once there, the wind immediatly made itself known, hitting Alessa's purple dress, rubbing it against her legs. It wasn't a hinderance, though. It bothered her more the wind was hitting her card paper horns, the ones placed over her head.

Her daddy, the Master of Masters, took her to viewpoint looking over the entire kingdom.

 

-So...For starters, everyone sent kisses ur way. They think a lot about u. They wished they could come more often. Especially today. I know I haven't been around as much lately. I hate especially leaving u alone with...Dang it, I'm dancing around the subject. Sorry.

-...Daddy, the horns might fly away. Please.

-Right, right ! So, we're both growing up fast in our respective ways. And, I want us to see each other more often, even at work. I'm gonna start taking in some other children in to train them, but I'm gonna need absolute privacy for this project. So I'm moving them to this private town of mine. They lack parents, so it's the least I can do. But not everyone can come to it, unless they get Keyblades. So, I think it's time u take over the enterprise. The Dream Teardrop Framework, or Immortality Service, as they like to call it, will be passed down to u, my precocious little princess. And ur gonna run it from (snaps his fingers) here.

 

And amidst the desert, a whole city themed park illuminated itself. If there were any stars in the sky in this plane of existance, they probably would have been washed off from the scenario.

 

-Is this all...for me ?

-Everything the Sun shines upon, even at night (points to the pale Moon and the Yellow Heart shaped one at the night sky, that not even the fireworks could conceal from Alessa's eyes) will belong to u, dear. Happy birthday, dear. U will take care of the people of my part of the kingdom that I just can not help. My priority must be the children. Urs will be the less fortunate ones and the adults that can't care for them the way I do.

-...U said u wanted privacy. Can't the other Masters help u ?

-Oh ! Well, I'll mostly need them on the outskirts, u see ? But look, this isn't my moment, it's urs. Do u like it ? All this light sure will deviate more of the Darkness to my territory so I can kill them. Bonus, right ?

-...It's lovely, daddy. Come, Naminé. Won't u take a look too ? See how pretty it is - Alessa pulled the chain to force Naminé closer. Some sort of tightening sound was heard from inside the Witch.

-Y-Yes...It looks...very lovely.

-Then...Come...Look !

-Of...c-c-coooooursssssse...Gh...! AHHHHH ! - the Witch took haste and started to run towards the balcony. But the Master's moves were faster. He reached the chest and pushed the hand further inside to reach the pyramid.

-For what it's worth, I am sorry to send u back to when I'm about to send u.

-What for ? I won't even remember any of this, just as I won't remember this universe is one big...

-Father ! No ! U said I could keep her forever.

 

It's unclear what happened at that balcony's top. All the Princess remembered was herself breathing in preparation to sing.

 

 

 

And suddenly, every color became monotone of shades, white and gray, then it went fully dark,

And a New Witch was born. The Angel had explained when the material had been taken from her

If the Witch was divided, she could not go back to whatever horror she was destined to sprung to and forget Alessa, along with the world's truth

 

Notes:

For those who don't know, the Angel is Angelus from "Drakengard". And the thing Alessa inherited appears on episode 2 of the anime "The Grimm Variations".

Notes:

Had to change the name, to clarify my inspiration sources. Hope to traumatize you !
