• Prologue
    I come from a long line of keyblade wielders, I am the head of this family, I am Laya Keyblade, and this is my story.

    Our ancestors made the infamous Keyblade. For all we know they made three, one for the chosen one, one for the king of Disney Castle and for the head of our family. To be able to get the Keyblade you have to be the next head of the family, you get it when you’re in danger and in grave pain either externally or emotiotional. For our next head we all thought it would be my big brother. No one believed it would ever be me, until now.
    Why we need the keyblade or other weapons is that theirs these group of creatures called heartless and nobodies. Heartless becomes when a heart turns dark or you’re killed by a heartless and only the heart leaves. Nobodies are the empty shells that are left behind.

    Anybody would love this great honor to control, but until they hear this fact they will change their minds. Once you have a keyblade a being called a mahatila which means pure darkness is created. It has the power to make you torture, and suffer in the same deal of whatever pain you went through whenever you got the keyblade. Like for example a memory flash-back, makes you feel, see, and act in any memory lock away by your heart, and only by your heart. It locks away to make you not to remember the great deal of pain. The only weird thing is only our family goes through this great deal, not the others, this is still remains a mystery.

    When I first got my keyblade it was on September 13, 2013 the day the one I loved so dear, died murderously, from a heartless never seen before. His name was, Mylo. My best friend since we were very small. This is how he died.




    Chapter 1—The Day
    All I could remember is a very tragic moment, a memory that will burn the existence of love, the face. His long pointed black and brown hair tipped with blood, scars all over his body. The big scar on his right half of his face, blood gushing out, and all I can hear is a faint, “I love you” with his hazelnut brown eyes locked on my pure blue and white eyes.

    As I jumped out, tears rained down my face and all I could hear is a screaming pain like nails on a chalkboard. The only one screaming was me. As I opened my eyes I see my mom at the foot of my bed asking me if I was ok. I just told her that it was just a nightmare. Then she says, “Ok Laya, well Mylo just came by asking for you but you were asleep. So I told him that and he said for you two to meet up at Square Park.” When I heard that I sprang out of bed fast and went to my closet as mom left and got a pair of regular jeans that are tight but loose, a blue short-sleeve tee, a mini black jacket just above the waist. I put on a pair of black short just below the knee combat boots. I grab my staff and rushed out the door not getting a bite to eat.

    I run towards Square Park as I see someone’s handkerchief flying down. I jump up towards it before it reached the dolphin fountain, I look and the many brick buildings as this girl waves at me. “Over here.” I walk up to her house waiting for her to open the door the first thing she saw was my black cat ears with the right half tip with blue. Then she reached out to my ears and started playing with them asking me if it was real. I said “I don’t have regular ears like you, I have cat ears.” Knowing she must be little she laughs and said that it was cute and walked away with the handkerchief.

    I finally get to the beautiful Square Park with brick paths. With a beautiful fountain in the middle and beautiful flowers around it. I see Mylo on a bench across the fountain the same bench we both met. I walk up to him and I see him wearing a red tee, jeans almost like mine, and a bark blue jacket. I asked him what he wanted.

    From being very sunny it began to grow dark, then cloudy. The clouds were so dark it began to rain. Thunder and lightning crash down. Then in a flash of light, a huge heartless appears the like of it I’ve never seen. I see Mylo jump up stand in front of me, like he’s going to guard me. I tell Mylo to move and grab my staff. Then the heartless slashes Mylo at the shoulder and I see him flying to the right. I scram and lunged towards the heartless with my strongest attack that usually kills a normal weak heartless. All it did was nothing but a scratch, and it throws me off of it with a strike sending me flying towards the fountain. As my back hit the fountain I coughed up some blood then I saw Mylo running towards the heartless. I try to move but I felt so scared that fear paralyzed me. I then see the heartless cut him on his right half of his face. I then saw blood gushing out from his wounds. All over the floor area was his blood with him in the middle. I see him turn around and look at me, then I remembered the face in my dream and I can hear the faintest “I love you”. Then the heartless stabs Mylo in the back puncturing his heart killing him.

    As I see this I can’t think breathe or move it feels like I was just hypnotized or in a trance. The next thing was that I scram, loud and so high pitched that birds a mile away gets scared and fly away. I then found the strength to get up. I see the heartless right in front of me. I instantly blocked the attack with my staff and see a flash of light. Then instead of a staff I see a blade with little details on both sides coming down to the hilt. The most striking appearance is that it’s also a key. It’s the keyblade. I strike it and end the life of the heartless. Leaving the body was two hearts, the captured heart of the heartless and the heart of Mylo. I get the strength to stand up I then dropped the keyblade to the side and limped to his body. I flipped his body around so I can see his face. “You stupid! Stupid, I could have protected you! Why!” I cried out. Then I started to cry until eventually I passed out from the stress. Once I fell asleep the keyblade vanished.

    Meanwhile, while I was asleep, knelling on Mylo. Two hooded people in black were behind me. “Well at least I was created; though it’s so sad she had to go through this. But before you answer that is she awake?” The first one asked. The second said “No she’s out cold,” “Good, what’s your name?” asked the first. The second pulls back his hood and says, Xemnas. Xemnas then asks “then what is your name?” The other pulls back its hood and says “My name is…Xyla,” Her face was exactly like mine, the black and blue cat ears, the long black with blue tip hair and the eyes, pure blue and white . She’s my mahatila.

    After I woke up from this morning’s great ordeal, hoping it was just a dream, I began to see the ceiling of a hospital. Around me I see mom, dad, Tyson (my older brother), grams, gramps, and my staff teacher, Dr. Neal. I then take a look at my arm, there were bandages, and also on my right side. I can tell, because it hurts like someone is stabbing it over and over getting deeper. In all of their eyes I see great pain and sadness. Mylo’s mom and dad barge in and say “You’re the best Laya, why couldn’t you protect him!” I finally had the strength to sit up and I say “I’ll tell you what happened and what the outcome was.”
    After a while, when I got to the part I got my keyblade, I reached out my hand and summoned it. In a burst of lights the keyblade appeared and all of their mouths dropped. I then went on with the story. When I finished it I suck up my tears from just saying what happened just a little ways to breaking up crying. Then gramps comes up to my side and says “The keyblade has chosen, and with that a lost, but what has happened is done and we can’t change it,”

    When he said that I broke and said in a rage “Yea right, you have no idea what happened! I do! I know you don’t even care; I was just there back to the fountain! And watch him die! Just like that couldn’t do a thing! You don’t even care that I loved him!” After I said that I started to cry, seeing tears rain down my face to the hospital sheets. Everyone was just there watching me cry.

    When I was able to leave the hospital my mom told me “Laya, we can’t find Mylo’s body. All we know is that he’s dead.” Just as she said that I remembered my dream just before I was in the hospital, the conversation between Xyla and Xemnas, they took his body! It wasn’t a dream!

    “What! You can’t find the body?” I asked. My mom just nods. I continue on, “and you knew he was dead before I l told my story?”

    “Yes, there was so much blood that, specialists thought and they told us he’s probably dead.” She said. “And another thing, I tried to object and say she would never do that to her only precious friend...,”

    “So what is it,” I asked when we got to the car.

    “They are accusing you of murdering Mylo, and you are going to go to trial,” mom told me with her eyes swelling up. “They have a ‘witness’, the greatest prosecution attorney, and we were able to get a defense attorney, mostly for free.”

    With all of the shock, but one thing stuck to me, but it looked like she was going to cry so I just waited till that night.

    When we got into the car all I could think is who’s the attorney, and why would he help me? The drive home felt like an eternity, but then it hit me, I had a dream that Mylo would die, yet it happened that very day. I thought that was odd so I told mom.

    “Well it might be deja-vu,” she told me. So I thought maybe it might be it. When we finally made it home, when something behind me seemed to say my name, I turn around. I just saw someone in a long black hooded jacket. I asked who it was. The person just pointed at me.

    “Listen to your dreams, for they are forever true,” The hooded man said. He snapped his fingers and I hear a screeching in both my ears. Mom ran towards me and asked if I was ok. The hooded man disappeared and the screeching stopped. I told her yes and she just got up and walked into the house. I got up and looked around, looking for the mystery person.

    “Who are you and where are you!” I yelled. But there was no answer. I went inside the house towards my room, and just collapsed on it. With my eyes really tired and heavy, I had so many unanswered questions. Who was the attorney? Did we know him personally? Who was the hooded person? What did “Listen to your dreams, for they are forever true” mean? Why would he or she help me for just to snap his fingers? Yet what was the screeching? So many unanswered questions. I then told myself, just wait till tomorrow. I then fell asleep.

    In my dream, I see myself in a huge white room. I saw many chairs, I counted 14 of them. The chairs were occupied with people in hooded jackets. Their hoods were off so I can see their faces. For some reason I knew their names. Xemnas, Xigbar, Xaldin, Vexen, Lexaeus, Zexion, Saix, Axel, Demyx, Luxord, Marluxia, Larxene, Xion, and one I somehow know, Roxas. Roxas, why does he seemed so familiar. Two hooded people walked in introducing themselves. One was Xyla, the other was really quiet.

    “Hello, I here bring a strong nobody to join Organization 13. I bring you a young boy who would protect the one he loved dearly, even to his last word. His old name was…Mylo…what will his new name be Xemnas?” Xyla asked.

    “His name will be…Xylo,” Xemnas promptly said. I stared at shock. The first thing that popped into my head was two things, one the one thing that the hooded guy told me earlier, “Listen to your dreams, for they are forever true”. Then two if the saying is true then Mylo…or Xylo is alive, but how. From all of the shock I woke up.

    It was nighttime because the moon is whole and is shining on me. The thing is that I’m not in my room; I’m on the side of the street next to a light-grey wolf. It looks really young to be out alone.

    “You saved me,” a voice spoke. I looked around but there was nobody. It’s just me and the wolf. “Down here, it’s me the wolf,” The voice spoke again. I look down and I see the wolf’s face. Its dark blue eyes staring into mine.

    I look in shock and ask, “How are you talking, and what are you.”

    “Silly, I’m a she-wolf. It’s just that I can talk.” The she wolf explained. I look at her like if I was still dreaming. “I was walking across this road and a huge thing with lights on the front was coming towards me. But you came in and rescued me. Your eyes were in a haze. What’s more shocking is that your pupils didn’t show like you were in a daze, or a trance. So I thought you were sleeping, but then you ‘woke up’. And that’s what happened.”

    I still look at her in shock now realizing what happened. “My name’s Laya. So what’s your name?”

    “My name is Olycia.” Olycia told me. Looking around she got up and started to sniff the area.

    “Do you have a home?” I asked her getting up.
    “No, I don’t really have a home. You see, I have no parents to take care of me, I don’t know how to hunt. I just look into these shiny things that usually hold food or I just eat leftovers from other animals.”

    “That’s sad.” I look at her and said, “Since I saved you and everything, would you like to stay with me.

    Seeing her whole face light up, she replied, “Sure thanks!” Then she runs towards me to lick my face.

    “Let’s just find a way to get back to my place,” I told her. “Let’s just retrace my steps.” She then agreed and then retraced my steps. After a couple hours we ended up at my house exhausted. I walk up to the door, rang it, and my mom and dad were at the door. The look in their eyes, I’ve never have seen them like that. Behind them was two men in black suits, my staffing teacher, Tyson, Grams, and Gramps.

    “You’re not welcome here, Laya,” my dad spoke. He then threw out a bag of one pairs of clothes. Before they slammed the door mom and dad mouthed the word “I’m sorry”. Before I knew it the door was closed. Tears started to rain my face.

    “Is it my fault?” Olycia asked. I couldn’t answer that because I was in a stage of crying were you can’t say anything. After a while, I wipe away my tear and said, “Let’s go.” Olycia agreed and we both left. We headed towards Square Park when the sun started to rise.

    Somebody was then at a bench waiting for something. I walk up to him and ask, “It’s late why are you here.”

    “it’s you the legendary Laya Keyblade.” The man spoke and shook my hand, “I’ve been waiting for you and your little pet, Olycia.”

    Suddenly, someone comes from behind me with a piece of cloth and bag, and I then black out.
