My whole life I've had these strange thoughts. Thoughts of a world filled with magic, adventure, light, and darkness. But these were from my childhood so now I have to think, where any of them real, or not?

Opening my eyes I found myself in the dark falling, but for some reason, I wasn't afraid. It felt peaceful and calming, is this what it's like to be dead?
Apparently, my question wasn't going to be answered as a bright light soon appeared blinding me for a moment. Once my eyes adjusted I noticed the light was coming from a giant thing of stained glass. It was blue with a smaller circle with strange symbols on it, one is a crown, one seemed to be a key, there was a heart, a wing, a ninja star, then the last one I couldnt figure out what it was.

Landing on the glass I was worried about it breaking but was surprised it didn't.
"Hey! Can you hear me?" 

I nearly fell back hearing a voice and looked around panicked.
"Okay good, you can. Now listen I don't have time to explain but you need to make these choices quickly."

After the voice grew silent three pillars rise, each having one item, a sword, a staff, and a shield.
"Hurry, we don't have much time, their coming!" He said panicked.

Taking a deep breath I rushed over to the closest pillar which was the staff.
"Power of the mystic, inner strength. Its a staff of wonder and ruin. Is this what you want?" He asked slightly in concern.

I shake my head backing away, if there's a fight I'm getting into then I'll need a sword, not some stick. So I quickly run to the sword and pick it up without hesitation.
"The power sword, invincible courage. This is a sword of terrible destruction. Is this what you-"

"Yes! I want the sword, now what do I do?" I yell out for once.

"Choice what you want to leave behind." He said seeming almost sad that I picked up the sword.
Looking between the stick and shield I go over to the staff and pick it up. 

"I want to get rid of this one," I say and it vanishes along with the shield. 

"You've chosen the path of a warrior, now hurry and wake up!"

A path appeared also made of stained glass and lead up to a white door. Without questioning it or where I was I rushed up the steps and burst through the door into a bright white light.
Next thing I know I was on the ground looking up at a white ceiling. 

"Am I dead?" I asked no one.

"No, but we will be if we don't get moving!" The voice from the dark said.

I sat up looking around and came face to face with a cat. It had light grey fur with black stripes and blue orbs that seemed to be its eyes. 

"Okay, I must be dead if I'm seeing a two-foot cat in a cape."

"Can you quit with the whole dying thing! We have to hurry and get out of here!" He said throwing his paws in the air.

"Okay correcting, a two-foot cat in a cape that talks."

He sighed facepalming and just shoved a strange sword in my face, it's blade was black with parts at the end pointing out on one side and the handle was a maroon color. 

"Hurry! We have to get out of here before they catch us!" He said hopping up and down.

"WHO!?"

Both the cat and I screamed as pink scythe crashed into the ground barely missing my legs. Looking up I come face to face with someone. They had gold eyes and pink hair that went down their neck. The man chuckled darkly smiling.

"My bad, but don't worry I won't miss this time." He said while trying to get his scythe out of the floor.

Taking this moment I grabbed the cat by his head and shoved him into my backpack before making a run for it.

"Don't forget the keyblade, you idiot!" The cat yelled.

Keyblade? I thought and remembered the black and red sword. I rushed back and grabbed it before the guy could grab me.

"Quickly through there!" The cat said pointing at a swirling black circle that appeared at the door.

"What! You want me to go into that pit of death!?"

"Just trust me! Hurry!"

Taking a deep breath I closed my eyes and ran through it feeling a blast of hot air against me. I nearly ran off the edge of a clock tower but thankfully the cat pulled me back over safely.


After taking this moment to catch my breath I finally remembered something, where the hell was I? I glanced at the cat as it was looking around in its little purse. 

"Sooooo, first off what are you, two where am I, and three what the hell is going on!"

He looked up and tilted his head laughing. "I am Chirithy, we're in twilight town and right now we need to find the king."

I lifted a brow at Chirithy. "Yeah, you go do that. I'll stay here and wait to wake up from this dream. Thanks."

He jumped up waving his arms around. "What! No! You have to come with me!"

I laughed at that holding my sides but stopped when he didn't laugh with me. "Oh, you're serious." 

He nodded and held the keyblade up to me. "You need to hold onto this, it'll be less suspicious with you having it."


I sighed taking it and put it in my bag most of the blade sticking out, and followed Chirithy out of the clock tower and to an alleyway. 

"So what's your name? You know mine." He asked.

"Huh? Oh... Savanna." I said hesitantly. 

He nodded chuckling. "That's an interesting name, then again you do seem to be an interesting person. I don't think I've seen someone with purple hair or brown eyes before."

"Seriously? There has to be at least someone who's dyed their hair this color and has this eye color." I said rolling my eyes. But Chirithy just shook his head. Sighing I shrugged it off and kept following him. 

"So where are we going exactly?" 

"Well if there's one place he could be it would have to be Yen Sid's tower. And for that, we need to catch the train before it leaves."

Groaning I nodded and picked him up following his directions to the station. Luckily we made it in time for the last train and were off to know where.
