In a cataclysm known as the Nightfall, the worlds were almost completely destroyed by a harrowing surge of darkness.
In the shadows of the ensuing chaos a new group has taken shape. Led by an Aegyl named Kalos, the 11th Hour touts an esoteric knowledge of how to combat the darkness and restore the worlds. They might be the worlds’ best chance at survival; but nobody really knows enough about them to confirm or deny their claims.
On the brink of collapse, the universe holds its breath in anticipation. Of restoration? Of destruction? It is up to individuals like yourself to decide.

"Uh.........What's happening.......I can't focus........head.....dizzy..........there's darkness...everywhere...........Where am I..... I am completely surrounded by darkness........ This place is odd and unfamiliar........... Where am I at.....wait I'm being dragged.....some force is pulling me......no more like my body is being attracted to something.....what is it"
Kazuma opened his eyes "It's a blade......no more of a key......what is it....there's more.....a boy who wields it.....He's fighting.........shadows........the same as those shadows that attacked the island" Kazuma's eyes open wider "the blade......it can fight against those things.........the child is bathed in light......the weapon is his but it's not absolute.....there is another with the ability to wield it"
Kazuma seemed lost in his thoughts "I see his battles from the start to the battle of a man in a black coat.......There sealing a giant gate.....this is the second time.......The weapon that's used to seal it........the name........it's......the Keyblade"
What kazuma remembers from that dreams was all mixed up. He didn't understand a lick of it. Well that is other than the name of the weapon. his eyes open, this time for real. Kazuma was laying in a bed.The room was bright. "Where am I" he says to himself. Kazuma's memories began to flood back into his head "MOM!!! GRANDPA!!!!!!" Kazuma sat up quickly but a sharp pain goes through his stomach. He clutched his stomach in pain. Kazuma was bandaged up. he had sustained damage from the fight in his home world. His coat was hanging from a coat rack as well as his shirt. Kazuma was bare from his waist up. Bandages wrapped around his body. Kazuma got up quickly from the bed. He was in pain. He put on his clothes and started walking towards the door.
Kazuma opened the door and walk out. The town looks dark and gloom like. *This is not my home* Kazuma thought as he was confused about where he had ended up. Kazuma looked around, he was in an unknown place. He needed answers and needed them fast. Kazuma wasn't in a panic but needed to know what was going on and the vision he saw and the weapon known as the keyblade. There were so many question. The enemies that he had encountered and the place he had ended up. His vision was somewhat blurred but he could see enough to make out figures. He was desperately looking for clue when he saw.........

Tanner was heading to work. Honestly, it was still to dark for it to be considered morning proper, but there was that whole thing about there being no sun. At any rate, Tanner was feeling drained due to the other things he had on his mind. Mainly the fact that there was a Creepy Killer God Clown who had taken over part of Traverse.
Anyways, Work. Except now, there was a boy stumbling out of a doorway who almost fell on top of Tanner.
Lessee, panicked actions, confused expression, being in the new arrival house...
Stopping to look at the fresh refugee, he made the first move. "Hi, you must be new here. I'm Tanner."

Kazuma stopped and looked at the man that had addressed him. He had definitely never seen this man before. Kazuma thought to go for his weapon but remembered that he left them by accident. He looked at the man with distrust as anyone who was thrown through dimensions would. Kazuma decided to calm down and regain his composure. He looked at the man. He didnit look like a bad person but he kept his guard up.
"Well Tanner you seem to know this place, would you mind telling me where I've ended up?" Kazuma said
Kazuma's eyes were a bright crimson red. A very odd color for ones eyes. His hair was a silvery white and the expression he carried on his face was of a person who didn't underestimate his opponent. The air around him was thick. Kazuma carried around him a certain atmosphere that caused most to go on alert. However he never attacked without reason and moreover without a weapon, even though he had mastered many kinds of martial arts.
"this place is most different than from where I'm from, the last thing I remember is a dark tunnel and the next thing I knew I was here so I'm guessing it's safe to assume this isn't my home town."

Tanner's eyes faltered as he remembered his own past for a moment.
Snaping back to this time and place, he continued the conversation. "So! This is Traverse Town, home to the wanderers of the universe. A magnet for the strong hearted who are lost, most of the people here are here because there is no where else for them. People find themselves here, and find a new life. Some make a life here, others go exploring, looking for friends of their past lives. And some... they can't take the change. The less said about them, the better..."
Tanner started walking slowly towards work, gesturing for the new guy to follow.
"In other words, you are a survivor of your world's destruction."
Kazuma listened to his words. *In other words, you are a survivor of your world's destruction*. The man spoke as if he understood the situation better than Kazuma. Kazuma had reason not to believe him. From his memory it seemed quiet possible. Kazuma kept his composure. It wasn't going to be any help freaking out in this situation.
"Traverse Town huh, so after my worlds destruction I was sent here, doesn't sound off and it would explain why I suddenly ended up here. However, I feel the same presence of the enemies I fought back in my hoome world. This place isn't safe, it more like a port for those that were strong to be transported to before there world were gone am I correct?" Kazuma asked
After seeing the gesture Kazuma began to follow. There were a few things he wanted to ask. Especially about the weapon known as the Ketyblade. From what he had seen it was a truly magnificent weapon. He didn't trouble himself over it too much. If he had that vision it meant that he would soon learn what it was. Kazuma felt that it played an important role but didn't know what that role was. If only he could get his hands on it is what he had thought. An unknown weapon that he just must get his hands on. Kazuma felt somewhat excited. His world had been destroyed so there was no need to worry over it. He had to look forward from this point on.

Worlds destruction....
Such idea was only an unreachable nightmare for many as they laid dormant in their comfort zone by scientific studies that narrowed down the ends of the worlds to be lightyears away. That same barrier of comfort has been shattered as heartless and nobodies flooded the known worlds and existence like a plague of viruses into a healthy body. They swarmed towards the worlds and started to deterioate it. The little fragments of the worlds defy gravity and collect into the horrific masterpiece called The End of the World. Right now, in her own lifetime, the end of worlds were becoming more prominent, and without action the colorful and peaceful Disney Castle would be among the rotten remains of other worlds.
Shaking her head, Selene awakened from the graphic nightmare of a rottening world as it cried loud silence, while it's own heart pulsed in pain in being consumed by hungry heartless and thier counterparts, the nobodies. The horrifying fantasy merged with the memory of her previous homeworld's destruction. Bright colors of oranges and yellows caused by a great explosion with the sorrowful face replicating her own saying goodbye was the last image in her mind before opening her natural orange eyes to the black abyss of space.
Her gummi ship was dimly lit by the low multi-colored glows from the computer monitors, keys, and buttons as it smoothly flew by a starry sky. It was hard to tell if she was moving or not, since there were so many, but the mother board computer told her otherwise. "Captain we are now approaching Traverse Town, a world locked in endless night where many survivng hearts land after a world's destruction. From the last synopsis, this world is relatively peaceful."
Sleep has been rubbed off her eyes, while her ears were alert at the computerized voice. The last of her tiredness left with a yawn; it was time to focus. "I see," now fully attentive, Selene could see the red hues of the worlds with the soft glows of street lights. It does have a "homey" feel to it, a feeling that the astro-warrioress missed dearly, but now wasn't the time to feel clingy or homesick. She had given herself a responsibility, a duty, to find the key wielders to stop the annihilation of the worlds. Thus far she had found none, nor does she knows if any other blades would be bestowed on any others. Now of all places, why would she head towards Traverse Town?
Majority of her time in Disney Castle, Selene spent it defending the castle and the inhabitants and reading in the library. In a journal, she a found out how a well-known keyblade wielder had landed on Traverse Town years before. His world was destroyed, and he was dumped in the peaceful town. Perhaps he would return there with a connection to be close to possible people he had met and befriended there. Perhaps there was another there placed in the same position who may to be a wielder in the future.
No matter, it was better to start a search somewhere versus no where.
"What else do you know of this Traverse Town?" Selene spoke to the computer before it replied.
"Traverse Town have three districts. The first district is safe for unknown reason, but the further one dwells into Traverse Town the more dangerous it tends to become. We will be entering Traverse Town's atmosphere in a few minutes captain."
"Alright, aware me at the upmost time for landing." Getting up from her seat, she went back towards the sleeping quaters to retrieve the Twins of Leto and other neccesities, including a pouch of munny.
"No one gets gets here before their world dies without a gummi. And yes, this place is far from safe. The town is split up into three districts. We are currently in the First District. This is the safest and most well defended. Second is more dangerous, and no one goes into Third unless they are an adventurer or have a deathwish."
"So the enemy that you fought there, and will be fighting for the rest of your life, is know as the Heartless. The name itself is misleading, as they are not heart-less, but rather made of the hearts and the worst of the darkness buried inside that heart. Only a keyblade can kill the Heartless, the best the rest of us can hope for is to weaken them down to basic shadows."
Kazuma walked slowly behind the man that was explaining the situation. he thought back to what had happened back on his home world. In the middle of practice the shadows appeared. He tried to fight them off but he didn't have the strength. It wasn't long before he was knocked unconscious. Kazuma had been training and has mastered every single bladed weapon and a few different types of martial arts. To be defeated was a blow that would be hard to overcome. he listened to the man speak about the heartless. The guy named tanner was very vague. he only gave Kazuma a very basic concept of what they were. he figured that either he was just being vague and getting to the basic point or the man named tanner didn't know what exactly they were either. From what Kazuma had gathered from Tanner's explanation and his own personal experiences these things seemed like shadow creatures. But there was something off. These heartless seemed off. Kazuma couldn't shake the feeling that there was somethign different.
Kazuma recalled the event that sent him to this world. There were many different kinds of heartless in the area but he did pick up on a difference. Some of the heartless had an insignia on them. He didn't know what it meant but he was sure it was important.
The Man named Tanner continued. One word that captured his attention was was word Keyblade. The sword as he explained was the only thing able to harm the heartless. However, that logic seemed off. Kazuma remembered back to his vision. Those who had come in contact with the boy and the blade were able to harm even destroy the creatures. From the way tanner had explained it seemed that the only thing able to harm them was the keyblade but that flaw had Kazuma baffled. Kazuma began to go into deep thought and remembered more parts of the vision. *the keyblade is the key that is able to unlock the hearts* was one of the things he had remembered. Kazuma started to put two and two together.
"the Keyblade is the weapon used to combat the heartless. The heartless are creatures created from the hearts of those who have lost to the darkness. the reason the keyblade is able to fight against those creatures is because it has the ability to unlock the hearts" Kazuma said. It was the most sdsense he could make out of what he had been told. with Tanner's vague explanations and all. "The master of the keyblade is one chosen to fight against the evil known as the heartsless it's that or there is more. I can't believe that those creatures, atleast at that quantity, would be concentrated in one area without someone's interference." Kazuma was praised for his intuition and intellegence back on his home world but was hard to approach due to his cold and blunt attitude.
"Tanner your being too vague, I can't really understand the situation unless you explain in more detail." Kazuma's eyes were in a glare like state. It was something that he was born with. His friends, atleast the few he had, use to call it the Devil's Glare because even when he smiled it still made him look a little scary. "I need more explanation, atleast all that you can give me, so that I can grasp the situation better"

The Twins of Leto glowed on the curve of Selene's slim hips, while weighing down the strap that bound it. Being in space was its oppurtune moment to feed of the energy of the stars. If Luna was present, the blade would've been fully charged, but it was better than nothing. From the sound of how the heartless activity in Traverse Town was, Selene doubted she needed as much magical attachment versus the constant attacks on Disney Castle.
The blade nestled in its sheath, which nuzzled against tight black pants that fitted like leggings. Although bagging pants were comfortable, it hindered her under the influence of Shooting Star. Her black undershirt fitted lightly as well like a glove, while a hooded vest was slowly zipped up half way. Bending down, she tightened her shoes velcro straps tightly, while sitting in the Captian' seat. Why on earth have shoes with shoelaces? Do one really wants to enhance the chance to trip because of loose boostraps?
"Captain, we'll be in landing range in five minutes. Would you rather for use to take land or use the transporting trans-matt?"
"The trans-matt. I have no idea who's down there. To me they are complete strangers, while to them I am an alien. There's no need to make a landing in a foriegn place; you know I don't toss trust so easily now in this era."
"I understand captain, but what if there are heartless ship amongst the atmosphere." Selene solved the problem with a click of a button, auto-pilot.
"You are under control of the ship, which you must protect. Do not allow anyone in this ship without me, and follow order given by Chip and Dale."
"Of-course Captain," the computer replied, while Selene got up towards the trans-matt, which glowed a lime green with light energy. She orded the gummi ship to contact the to chipmunks immediately, and it wasn't long for their voices to be heard.
"Chip, Dale, please supervise the gummi ship. I would be away and land on a world named Traverse Town. If worse to come, direct the gummi ship away to safety even if it means back to the garage." Her eyes closed once hearing them bicker for a moment in their high pitched voice at her decision in not wanting to land the ship. "Boys if I need a ride, I will contact you and the gummi."
Not waiting to hear more, she replied her farewell towards the speakers where the chipmunk twins could hear her. Pushing a button a doomed glass came over her before sealing tightly around the trans-matt. A low buzz, which barely could be heard, started to grow louder as the trans-matt glowed brighter. Light coated her body as a great deal of gravity started to compress and push her body down south. Like a shock of electricty, a zap formed, and Selene was no longer in the ship, but on ground.
Her nose drank in the new oxygen, since she had to held her breath within the trans-matt. The air felt different here, and it was cool. There weren't any clouds in thesky to trap the world's heat as a soft chill breeze embraced her legs and arms. From the lack of people to make this first step into Traverse Town comforting, Selene was on guard taking in every detail. A gizmo shop was down south as a hotel was towards the left.
"This must be the second district." The young woman muttered lowly, while quickly looking behind her to find to large doors. It was too thick to hear sounds through it. "This better be towards the first district." Her hands pressed it until it creeked upon to leave the solemn blue hued second district to the more lively red well-lit first district. Heartless attacks were the last thing she wanted at the moment. The sooner she gets to the first district the better.
"You just need to ask a question. I have some of the answers, but you have not actually asked a question yet."
Glancing up from his company, he looked around. "Ah, here we are. Welcome to the Hit the Spot Ice Cream Shop."
The walls of the inside of the shop were covered with large targets, with an ice cream cone in the center. The tables also sported large circles. There was a large ice cream counter, with the sunken barrels of ice cream and the large amounts of toppings.
After turning on all the lights, he slipped behind the counter, started the coffee, and got some mocha ice cream for himself, and asked "Here's a question for you. What kind do you want?"
((Sorry, I got a copy of Four Swords Adventures, and that kept me occupied elsewhere for a while.))
Kazuma wasn't in the mood for this type of answer but it was no doubt that he was correct. Normally people would explain everything to someone who didn't understand so Kazuma was expecting it. But in this case the man needed a question in order to give a full explanation. If was odd or normal Kazuma couldn't dicern. Tanner had gone to an ice cream shop. This town didn't seem like the place to have an ice cream shop. It seemed out of place but what made Kazuma feel odd was the fact that he offered him some. In this type of situation where Kazuma knew nothing it seemed stupid to offer ice cream. Kazuma's face made a blank look as if saying *are you kidding me*. Kazuma put his hand on his face. "No, do i looik I want ice cream. I will admit you were right about me not asking questions but does this really seem like the right time to be offering ice cream" Kazuma glared at tanner. Yet again an unintentional glare but it couldn't be helped, it was just how he looked.
"OK, first off tell me everything you know about the keyblade" kazuma said. "You claim it's the only weapon capable of combating those creatures so from that I know there is a link between the two" kazuma continued "Not only that can you explain to me exactly what those creatures are to begin with and why they attacked my home world" Kazuma said in a stern yet clam tone. It was a strong voice that said he wanted to know. He had an unwavering determination in his eyes. He thought back to the vision he had but said nothing about it. he planned on asking but decided to do so later after he had understood the situation more clearly. It was useless asking about the vision when he could barely make sense of it himself. He wouldn't be able to relate it to others. "If you can't answer my questions then I'll leave and find someone who can" Kazuma said. From the look on his face you could tell he meant what he said. He didn't need any useless information.
(Don't worry It's all good)

Information is what Selene wanted at the moment. The town looked so serene that she wondered how was it kept so..."stable". Not only did she had question on the whereabouts of the keyblade wielders, Selene wondered who ruled this town to insure such security in the well-inhabited districts so far. The keyword was "so far"; she haven't yet dwelved into the second and third district to get the fullest experience. From the computer mother board, she had heard how wandering through the Third District was suicidal, but when one lives a life of defense and offense in Disney Castle she wasn't too worried or concerned about survival.
As if they would be much difficulty to live through...Her thoughts were sarcastic, but she wasn't a fool to go prance in there without thought or care. One can't run into everything blindly, that would be suicide. Selene refuse to go down with a remark on her tombstone along the lines of "death by sucidial attempts." She have a sword, magical summoning talents, and battling skills; Selene would go down in a fight not with open embracing arms.
Walking into the first district, she felt clueless. Majority of the people have a lost look upon their faces almost reflecting her own feelings about what to do next, when, and how, but they also wore the facial expression of where. It was obvious some had no clue where they were at; this world was an alien to them. Her brows furrowed at this new observation. These people must be landing here in some way or form, and there must be someone in control or in an office to make sure everything runs smoothly. How else would one cope and get use to a foreign place after awaking from what could've been a nightmare, or was it every man for themselves here? Impossible, the world would be in ruins if it was that divided.
Darting her eyes around in a scattering pattern, she saw nothing to indicate getting any source of information. Instead she saw a few shops, people, people, more people, a mailbox, and a wierd floating pink creature. Now she was starting to feel a streak of frustration.
"Better start adventuring and discovering," turning on her heels she walked passed a few shops; they were closed at the moment. It was hard to tell by the environment when it will open; this world is stuck in endless night after all. So awkward to not see the sun at all. Then again, when was anything normal?
What felt like eight minutes later of loosing her way in going in circles or walking into dead ends, Selene found an icecream shop. There weren't any signs to indicate it was closed at all, and probably her first scoop of icecream in a foriegn world wouldn't be too bad of a start. Although she would give in to a little glimpse of what home was like, she can't stray to far off track; she had a duty and responsibiliy bestowed on herself by herself.
"I always found that ice cream makes things better, but hey, as you like it." Tanner finished scooping up Mocha ice cream and plopped it into a large cup of iced coffee.
Sipping his drink, he started a monologue . "Mmmmmm, caffeine. Alright so, the Keyblade. The keyblade is a weapon. It only chooses the purest of hearts, yes, it chooses who wields it, not the other way around. It can open and close any locks, including metaphysical ones. Because of this, it can destroy heartless. I did not say that it is the only weapon that can combat a heartless."
Pulling out his paddles, he spun them in his hands, letting the edge catch on the light. "I can kill heartless with these things. However, when I kill them, they come back. Now, they do come back weaker, and elsewhere. We think. Hope. When the keyblade kills them, their heart that they draw energy from is released."
"Now the heartless. The heartless are embodied forms darkness that lives in every person. When someone is killed by Heartless, their heart becomes shrouded in darkness, and their body dissipates. The heart then becomes a new heartless. The stronger the darkness in the heart, the stronger the Heartless."
"Now the downsides to the keyblade. Whoever wields the keyblade is in great danger, wherever they go. The Heartless can sense the keyblade, and will attack en-mass. Also, there are people who want the keyblade for themselves, and try to kill the wielder for it."
"Oh, and as for the keyblade, if you want to wield it, you won't be able to. As I said earlier, they choose their wielders. I've seen plenty of people who pass through here who want one, and they are very picky."
