Kingdom Hearts: First Legacy

Story Name: Kingdom Hearts: First legacy

Developer: SoraDragonCaliur

Genre: Action RPG

Game Modes: Single Player, Multiplayer

This story takes place during the time when the first keyblade wielder that ever was. It's his story.

I would also like to note that this takes place in the same universe as Legend's Quest, my other fanon series. Also, it takes place in an alternate version of the actual Kingdom Hearts storyline just for the sake of not conflicting.

Story
Every story has a beginning, even mine. My name is Hashirama Rikudo. I'm 13 years old and a booknerd. I live in The Kingdom of Beginnings, which is what inspired the name Land of Depature in your time. What? It's not there anymore? Anyway, I've said to much. It's time for the story to begin.

(In  Hashirama's room) Hashrima: Darn it! Why can't I get this to work?! Ken: You're still working on making a weapon? Why don't you just buy an enchanted sword like everyone else? Hashrima: When I make this, it'll be the best thing that ever happend to me! Ken: Whatever you say. Just so you know, training begins in 30 minutes. Be sure to get your sword ready. Hashrima: Alright. *Ken gets out the door* (After 28 minutes, he still ends in failure) Hashrima: *sigh* I finally got it. I just need to put an enchanted keychain I made, add this shaping potion here, and put the Holy Life spell on my hand. *he does just that and when he touches the sword it starts glowing* Hashrima: What the? *he sees a vison showing the landscapes of many worlds, then sees Kingdom Hearts* Hashrima: Kingdom Hearts! It wasn't just a myth! Huh? *the sword turns into the first keyblade ever: Crescent Moon* Hashrima: I shall name thy weapon, Keyblade. You exist for Kingdom Hearts!

So I created the keyblade and was also the first wielder. Four years have passed and I became a Keyblade master at age 17 and established an academy in The Kingdom of Beginnings. There's already 100,000 keyblade wielders here, it went fast. I discovered that only one with a pure heart may it be light or dark, good or not, the keyblade accepts them. Everything went well for the academy and the universe, but little did I know that something was bad was going to happen.......

The cutscene shows a throne room with barely any lighting. ???: My lord, the preperations are ready. Shall we activate "it"? ???2: Yes, the plan will commence now.

Hashrima:*takes a walk through the academy being greeted as he passes by* Hashrima: Greetings Ken. How goes your training? Ken: Great actually, am I ready for the Mark of Mastery Exam? Hashrima: You'll have to spar with me first. Ken: Sure * after a short battle, Hashrima comes to a conclusion* Hashrima: You're ready. I just promoted so many keyblade masters this month. After the next exam, we should have sufficent amount of masters. *EXPLISION!* Ken: What the? Keyblade Apprentice: Grand Master! The city is being attack by monsters! *they run outside and see multiple Dark sides attacking all over the place* Ken: What are those things? Hashrima: I've read about them, they are called heartless. When a person's heart is consumed by darkness they turn into what you see. What kind of heartless is determined by how much darkness they have. They shouldn't be appearing here like this, there must be someone behind it. Ken, come with me! (Ken has joined the party) *after fighting several heartless they reach source* ???:I never would have thought that someone would be able to locate where I was. Hashrima: It's quite simple, I could smell your scent. *draws keyblade* Stop this or I will be forced to kill you! ???: A boy threatening me? HA! Perhaps I should turn you into a heartless. *??? is easily defeated* Hashrima: Who are you and who do you work for? Dark Knight: I'm a dark knight and work for a lord in an Order. They sent me here with the heartless. They plan to--* burns up in fire and dies* Hashrima: Damn! They killed him just so then he couldn't give us any information.

7 days have passed since that incident and I sent a few wielders to investage and report what they find. I did some research of my own on the heartless,but didn't find anything like what happed today. The order, and this lord... What is it, what are these dark knights. What exactly are they after?

(late at night, Hashrima is on his laptop searching on every data file he can find) Asuka: Hashrima you've been searching 24-7 with barely any sleep, you should rest. Hashrima: You don't under understand, we know nothing about those knights. There are alot more of them, they control the heartless, who knows what dark powers they hold? Asuka: Just get some sleep for tonight. Hashrima: Alright. (the next morning) Martin: Grand master!*comes running in wounded* Hashrima:*comes running to him* Are you alright? What happend? Martin: I found information on the dark knights, from one of their hideouts. One of them spotted me and I had no choice ,but to fight all of them. There were at least 23. *falls to the ground* Several wielders including myself found 3 worlds that are most likely filled with the dark knights. *hands data pad, then faints* Hashrima: Help me take him to the medics, now! *30 minutes later* Ken: Do you think he's going to be alright? Hashrima: We treated his injuries before they became life threatening. These knights seem to be very powerfull, I will deal with them personallly. Vrook! Vrook: Yes grand master? Hashrima: Run the academy in my place until I come back. Vrook: You can't go alone. Hashrima: I know that, which is why I'm bringing Ken and Asuka. Their skills will aid me. Ken, Asuka! We're leaving as soon as possible!

(Hashrima, Ken, and Asuka travel to 1 of the 3 worlds that Martain spoke of) Hashrima: According to the data pad, we've landed in "Hidden Shadows". Ken: Where should we start? Hashrima: Simple. *goes to a citizen* Have you seen anyone with characteristics? Citizen: Why yes I have. *tells him* Hashrima: Thank you. *gets back to Asuka and Ken* He said that he say a few knights in purple and black armor, and not many people around here even own armor. They were last seen heading south. (they go through a forest until they see Dark Knights and heartless) *the party draws their keyblades* Asuka: So the knights really are here. Ken: Not to mention heartless. Hashrima: What we have to do is defeat all them and get anything we can from their base. Heartless will be lingering near there. Come on! (they defeat the enemies and continue defeating them until the base is empty) Ken: Hashrima, Asuka. I found something. Hashrima:*takes the papers* ! They're.....using....dark magic to summon heartless! But, how does this explain them being able to summon many powerfull heartless? Dark Knight:*crawling and is presumed dead* For my lord! *fires a Dark Firaga* Asuka:*blocks it and kill him with a blizzardaga spell* What is it with them and this lord anyway? Hashrima: His identity is unknown, we can't find anything on him.

(They land in Radiant Garden) Ken: How can they be here? All I sense is light. Asuka: Worlds that have much light such as this one will only attract more darkness. I just hope nothing happens to this world. Hashrima: Correct. Let's search around and see if we find anything. *after searching and fighting many heartless, they reach a yellow gate* Hashrima: Gate's locked. *unlocks the gate* What we're looking for must be up there, at the Castle. *they go up to the castle* Guard: Halt! You may not proceed, access is restricted to---*sees their keyblades* Guard: Is that what they call the keyblade? Hashrima: That's right. Guard2: I heard a 13 year-old created the 1st one 4 years ago. Hashrima: I'm him. Guard: You may proceed. Hashrima: Still think I should have bought an enchanted sword Ken? Ken: *laughs* (when they walk in, they hear a voice from a door) ???:Please don't get close to me! ???: I'll send you into the void! Hashrima:*kicks door* Unhand him! Dark Knight:*let's go of the man and jumps through the window* Asuka: Are you alright, what happend? ???: He wanted the location of some "keyhole". Ken: What are those things? Hashrima: They are the core the world, if one gets close to it they can flood it with darkness and consume it. But, one needs the heartless and it's much easier with a keyblade. He must not find it! *they jump out and purse the knight* *they get to the libriay* Ken: You won't get away! Dark Knight:*closes blocks Hashrima's and Asuka's passage, leaving him alone with Ken* Hashrima: Ken! (the Dark Knight eventually stops when he gets to the keyhole) Dark Knight: Let's see how you do, shall we? Ken: Shut your trap! *Ken appears to have defeat him* Dark Knight:*takes his mask off, and showing a goatee and mustache with a bald head* You're much stronger than I anticipated,but you can't beat me at your current level! *the Dark Knight defeats him* Ken:(This guy is, stronger than the other dark knights, much different as well. Just from his armor, he must be high ranking) Who are you?! Saul: I'm.. *appears behind him*.... Saul. Ken: Ha! *attemtps to hit him,but is knocked back* Saul: This one has much potiental, he could be of use to our lord. *points hand towards Ken, and fires darkness at him* Ken: ARGHHHHHHHH! Saul: Do not fear, I am giving you strength. Feel the darkness as it flows into your body, and your heart! If you seek power, come with me to our lord. Asuka: Ken! Saul: Damn you! *summons a Behemoth and leaves* Hashrima: Asuka, you take Ken. I'll fight him! *defeats the heartless* Hashrima: Unlike other keyholes, this appears to be very powerfull compared to others. *casts a white spell on it, changing the aura around it* Hashrima: This keyhole is now in incomplete. No one can open it without 7 hearts of pure light. Of course, it's impossible to find even 1, so noone will ever get to it. Asuka: Ken what happend? Ken: He was really strong, I'm telling you. That Knight is stronger than the others, I don't think I could have won with Asuka helping. You're likely the only one who could have stopped him. Hashrima: We'll get you fixed up, we still have 1 last world from this data pad.

Hashrima: This is Olympus Colluesum, a place where people to fight for glory and become heroes. Ken: What we're looking for might be in the matches. Asuka: They couldn't be in any other place. *after finishing many matches they reach the finals* Asuka: Dark Knights! Ken: This should be easy. *they defeat them* Hashrima: We don't seem to be going anywhere with this search. What? *the data pad shows 5 worlds* Asuka: The agents must have found those worlds. Hashrima: Alright, our mission is to officially destroy every single Dark Knight bases there are and kill their lord.

The Dark Knights would be able to know where we were if we travled on Keyblade riders so we had to go back to the Kingdom of Beginnings and use my old Space Ship. It still works.

Ken: We're being attacked! Asuka: What? Hashrima: What should we do? Ken:*says alot things that you would hear in Sci-Fi movies* Hashrima and Asuka: This isn't Star Wars! Ken: Fine. Asuka, try getting us into hyperdrive and Hashrima take the turrent. (EXPLSION!) Hashrima: They hit the engine, we're going to crash! *they land on the world, Deserted Land* Hashrima: The ship's engine been damaged beyond repair, it needs to be replaced. Let me see if I can locate anything. *uses a radar* There seems to be scaps from ships that have crashed here, let's look around for an engine we can use for the ship. (After searching, they find a camp filled with people) Ken: Who are these people? Asuka: Natives, they appear to have lived here for a long time. Native:*sees the robes that the party is wearing* Judging by your clothes, you 3 aren't from here, are you? Hashrima: Yes, we crashed here, and we need a new engine for our ship? Do you know where to find 1? Native: Yes I do, however you must do a favor for us. South of here there is a Temple filled with Dark energy around it, cleanse the Temple of the darkness. And you can find an engine inside. Hashrima:*bows* You have our thanks. Native: You don't have to come back here when you're done, we can sense the dark energy. Ken: Look's like the Dark Knights are here. Asuka: It's likely. *they enter the temple to find, men in dark hoods* Hashrima: I can sense it, they aren't the knights ,but Priests of the Void! *they kill all of the dark priests* Hashrima: This actually happens to be 1 of the places were suppose to go. Oddly enough, this place doesn't have any of the knights. But, they aren't allied with the Priests. Asuka: How can you tell? Hashrima: They serve the Void God. He has the power to have symbols of any ally appear as a crest on their arms. As you can see, they arms have nothing. Now let's take the engine and go.

Asuka: Ken, Hashrima! Look at the map! *they run to see a world being destroyed on their map* Hashrima: What? How can there be enough power to generate a destroy a world? Ken: That was also a world we were suppose to go to. Something abnormal is going on! ARGHHHHHHHHH! (pain goes through his body) Hashrima and Asuka: KEN! Ken:*passes out, and hears in a voice saying :You seek power, yes? Submit yourself to me and become more powerfull than you can ever dream of* *wakes up* What happend? Asuka: You went into pain and passed out. Hashrima: It must have been a reaction from destruction of that world. You'll be fine, Ken.

The next world is, Dungens. Hashrima: Great, of all places the ship had to teleport us, IT HAD TO BE A DUNGEN! We can't even teleport somewhere else! Ken: Calm down, we were teleported here for a reason. Asuka: Is that an answear orb? It can answear anything. *walks to it* Hashrima: Asuka, don't! It's an illusion! Asuka: What? *she loses her soul* Ken: CRAP! Hashrima: I know now, this a dungen that is controlled by a Dungen Master that attracts heroes to kill them and devour their souls! Ken: You mean Asuka's dead? Hashrima: Not exactly, if we can kill the master before 7 hours have passed, Asuka will have her soul back or else she will die. *they split up and fight countless creatures for 6 hrs 50 min.* Ken: Times almost up, and we've gotten nowhere! Hashrima: DAMN IT! DAMN IT! I will not let you hurt my friend!!!!!!! *has green glowing around has body* HAAAAAAAA! (a passage way opens) Ken: What the? Hashrima: *levitates quickly toward the dungen master* Dungen Master: What is this power?! Hashrima: HA! *punches him in the stomach and makes him split blood out! Dungen Master: Who are you?! Hashrima: I am the creator of a great weapon that exists even beside Kingdom Hearts itself, a Philsopher with ideals that fall in history for endless generations to come. I am..... the INSTRUMENT OF YOUR DESTRUCTION! *pushes him back with a shock wave breaking countless walls* Dungen Master: You......*spits out more blood* only have 51 sec. until that women's soul is mine! You don't have enough time to kill me! I still have more power! *gets to be just as strong as Hashrima* Hashrima: Active Time vision! *turns the time from 51 sec. to 51 minutes* Ken: What the hell? He changed the time! . Hashrima: Allow me to show you my pride! For I am Hashrima Rikudo! This is Rikudo burning soul! Dungen Master: Intersting, you will be the strongest opponent I will won't encounter for another 4,000 years! *they fight a very intense battle, blades clashing, magic being casted back in forth, the battle ends with Hashrima killing the Dungen Master* Hashrima: With 8 seconds to spare...*the green aura disappears* Ken: I've never seen you display this kind of power before. Hashrima: If this guy was just as strong as I am, who knows how strong the Lord is!

(As the party is going to another world, Ken asks Hashrima a question) Ken: About earlier, what are these ideals you speak of? Hashrima: Well I've read a lot and have been writing many books. I write about subjects that require complex thinking. Ken: Sounds intersting, do you have any books that you've written with you? Hashrima: Yeah, I have all of them. Ken: That's great. Hashrima: *gets 56 books out* Here you go. Ken: What? How have you been able to write these books within 4 years? Hashrima: You'll also see these in the book stores, these are the best sellers. Ken: I think I'll read them later.......... (Later they end up getting in the middle of a space battle) Asuka: They're firing at us from all sides. We need to land on that world in our map. (They land on that world. As they get out, they see guards around them) Guard: Put your hands where I can see them. Ken: We're just passing by, we're not with your enemy if that's what your thinking. (A group of rebels arrive and kill the guards) Rebel: Come with us. *they follow the rebels* Hashrima: Why are you rebelling against your own government? Rebel: We're fighting against our Queen's army because she lets all races that aren't human get killed with out breaking the law. It's unjust. The only way to stop this, is to get a new King or Queen. Which is why we're rebelling. Will you three help us. You seem pretty strong. Hashrima: Of course. Rebel: Good. Meet up with the general tomarrow so we can follow the attack at the palace and assinate the Queen (They succeed in getting to the operation and make it to the Throne Room) Queen: You will not take me off my mantle! *dark aura surronds the Queen* Hashrima: That aura, it's the aura the knights have. *the party manages on killing the Queen* General: If it weren't for you three, we wouldn't have been able to kill the Queen. You have our thanks until the end of days.

(The party prepares to land on the last desination ,but get surronded by ships) Ken: Damn it, it's a trap! They've been waiting for us! Voice: Don't try to resist, we have you surronded. Hashrima: We should do as he says, we'll get ourselves killed if we attempt to flee. Asuka: How about the keyblade riders? Hashrima: They would only follow us into space. (The party lands their ship and gets taken as prisoners) Black Knight Messanger: The lord requests to bring the one that we have captured. Bring the prisoner to him at once. Prison Guard: Understood. *saultes* Come with my prisoner. *he gets Hashrima to follow him along with other guards accompanying* Ken: Asuka, we should use our keyblades to escape, it can unlock any lock. Asuka: We could,but the cells aren't lock by regular doors. These doors are made out of pure energy. The only way to unactivate it is to turn off the energy blocking our cell. (in the throne room) Prison Guard: We have brought the one you asked for, my lord. ???: You did well, now step aside and let me take to our prisoner. Prisoner Guard: Yes my lord. *they get to the door that leads out of the throne room* ???: So you're the one who's been wiping out my men. Intersting...... You have much strength, even for someone your age. Hashrima: That voice........ you're Ganden Rhor! Ganden: You've heard of me? Hashrima: Yes, I've heard your voice recordings of the development of making immortality possible. It was said that you died 6 years ago when on an expedition. I now see that was a lie. Ganden: Not only do you possess great strength and skill,but intellegence as well. You only make me more intersted. Now, I have a prosition for you. If you join me, I'll give eternal life and power beyond your wildest dreams. Hashrima: Why should I join you?! You're just going to keep killing more innocent people! You've been spending your whole life searching for immortality, you think I don't know what you're up to? You plan on making an immortal army rule the whole universe.Ganden: It's a shame, you could have been a great knight,but now you must die. *unlocks Hashrima's hand cuffs* Fight me! Hashrima: *summons keyblade and attempts to attack Ganden many times only to have his attacks blocked and easily avoided* What? Ganden: It's still 20 years too soon for you to have a chance at even trying to stand up to me. *he starts slashing Hashrima with his sword and knocks him towards the wall* Hashrima: GAH! *spits out blood* Burning Soul! *dashes toward Ganden and attempts to attack with Firaga,but Ganden knocks the keyblade out of Hashrima's hand and his unaffected by the Firaga* Hashrima: How could that Firaga not affect him? *looks at Ganden's sword* That's-- Ganden: Excaliber, yes. This weapon is the reason you couldn't hit me with your spell. *prepares to kill Hashrima,but then the wall explodes* Ken: Asuka, take Hashrima and get out of here! I'll hold him off! Asuka:*she does as Ken says and escapes through the use of the keyblade rider* Ganden: Another keyblade wielder? You might not be as strong as him, but you'll prove somewhat entertaining. What's this, it appears you've been marked by one of our own. I'll release that darkness now. Ken: No! *his eyes get pale yellow, his skin grows paler, and his hair gets darkner* Ganden: Bow down to me. Ken: Yes my lord.

(Now at the Kingdom of Beginnings) Hashirama: Damn him, he probably killed Ken, or is holding him prisoner. Gah! Asuka: Don't worry about anything, you're in no condition to fight right now. *a man with blue armor and green hair walks up to them, and heals Hashrima* Hashrima: Thank you, but who are you? Daichi: My name is Daichi, I have come here to test your ability. Hashrima: For what reason? Daichi: I sensed that Gandon defeated it you, did he not? Hashrima: How do you know about that? What does it have to with anything? Daichi: The reason being that I know you will challenge him again. I will be able to judge if you are ready to fight him. Hashrima: Fine! To the sparring room! *they walk there with Asuka and 3 keyblade wielder aaccompanying them* Daichi: We will begin as soon as you make your move. Hashrima: (I know nothing about this guy. He doesn't look like he'll use his shield against me. He hasn't fought a keyblade wielder before so, I now how I'll begin) *dashes to Daichi's left and attempts to slash him* *Daichi ducks and gives an upper thrust that is blocked. Daichi then uses firaga from his hand* *Hashrima counters with his firaga, and they both bounce back. He then uses strike raid, and dashes to punch him* *Daichi thrusts down, but is evaded* *Hashrima summons his keyblade back and knocks Daichi foward* Daichi:*getting back up* Impressive. I'll start getting serious now. Hashrima: What?! *the battle goes on for 5 minutes, Hashrima is out matched in skill and power* Hashrima: Damn it! Burning Soul! Daichi: Hmm? *Hashrima dashes towards and his slashes aren't blocked as easily as before, but still with little effort* Daichi: That still won't help you! *knocks him back* That Burning Soul may increases your power, but it drains your speed. You need to have a balance. Coming at your opponent recklessly with anger won't help either. Take word of what I've said. *walks away* Hashrima: Who was that man? He was incredibly strong. He was on a different leauge from Ganden, it seems as though he was testing me. But why would he fight me, defeat me, then leave? He could have helped us! Asuka: Just rest for a while longer. I'll take your place in making stratigies until you're ready.(1 hour later, Hashrima walks into the counsel room) Hashrima: What's the situation? Asuka: It seems as though Ganden is leading his fleet to Njun. Hashrima: Njun? Why is he going there? Vrook: From what we know, Njun has a city with a Kingdom that's been unhabited for hundrends of years. It was said to have been wiped out by necromancers. What Ganden needs to achieve immortality resulted from that battle as we can assume. He'll be using his fleet to demolish the planet's army. The army are most likely the the people who died in the attack. Hashrima: We should contact the Chancellor to send men with us to Njun, as well as 20,000 keyblade wielders from here. We can't afford to leave this place undefended. Asuka: We should get started immediately.

(Ganden and his fleet head for Njun) Ganden: It shouldn't be long before we get there. I expect that Hashirama will apprehend us. (Ken, now in dark purple robes foward) Ken: And when he does I'll kill him. Ganden: In due time apprentice, all in due time. (Hashirama's and Gandens fleet arrive on Njun, then send their men out) (Hashimra leads a squadron of 100 men with him, including Vrook and Asuka to the castle) Hashrima: Remember, we should expect to not only fight Ganden's men, but undead as well. (They fight countless undead and dark knights until they reach the city where the castle is, 20 men have died on the way) Asuka: The castle is up head, come on! Hashrima: Wait... what is that? (An undead soldier, walks from the door, in rusted armor, with spikes out of his helmet) Vrook: That must be the former general of the army here before he died from the overwhelming amount of undead. (undead wizards appear) Hashrima: Damn... Vrook: You two get inside, we'll handle this. Hashrima: You could use our help! Vrook: It looks like most of the undead forces are out here, inside shouldn't be a problem. It looks like the Knights haven't reached here yet, now go! While there's still time! *Hashrima and Asuka run past the undead* Vrook: We're your opponents you pieces of undead shit! Here we go men! Charge! (Hashrima and Asuka fight through many undead until they encounter some Knights) Asuka: Shit, they managed to get here! Hashrima: Let's just fight through them and get to Ganden, he should be here! (Meanwhile Ganden and Ken are heading to the top of the castle) Ganden: Your friends may catch up to us soon, deal them. Ken: Understood. *runs back down stairs* Ganden: I will soon have immortality as I planned. (Hashrima and Asuka encounter Ken) Asuka: Ken, you're alright! Come with us to stop Ganden! Hashrima: Ken, you've been corrupted by Ganden haven't you? Ken: Corrupted? No. Enlighted? Yes. I have been opened my eyes to the truth. Darkness is true, and your pathetic light is nothing but a lie. Light will vanish, Darkness will consume everything! Hashirama: It's time I knocked some sense back into you! (Ken is more powerful than before, but he's not a problem) (Hashrima defeats him and ends up knocking him out ) Hashirama: You stay with Ken. Asuka: You can't fight him alone, he defeated you last time. Hashirama: Ken is still probably the same as he was when I fought him, he could end up helping Ganden, he needs to be watched. I believe we can save him from his darkness, but it'll have to wait. Asuka: I'll come as soon as reinforcements get here. Hashrima: It's a plan then. *runs up the stairs* (Ganden is at the highest floor in the largest tower of the castle. A large stone escribed with writing is at the end of the room) Ganden: This stone's power came from the deaths of the citizens killed by the necromancers. It was made in hopes of giving eternal life. Each of the necromancers wanted it for themself, so they all ended up killing each other. In the end none of them got the stone, luckily this stone fed on their deaths as well. I can become immortal in the sense of living longer, sense it takes takes in how much life each victum had. I cannot obtain invunerablity such as the gods do, but this shall suffice. I can just keeping killing to feed it, then process the life energy into myself. Not only that, but I gain a small amount of power for each life I take in, thus I don't have to worry about any mortal or god being more powerful than I. (Hashrima enters the room) Hashirama: I've heard everything you've said! I won't let you get away with this! Ganden: Ah, you've defeated Ken. No surprise, he was a good diversion though. I assume you spared him. After I kill you and feed on your life energy, I'll go downstairs and do the same to Ken. Hashirama: You won't win this time. Ganden: I'd take power from the stone right now, but that would make you less of a threat and make this less entertaining. Seeing as how I'm more powerful then you to begin with. *Hashirama and Ganden clash blades, Hashirama holds up better than last time, but is overwhelmed by Ganden's brute strength and kicked aside* Hashirama: Burning Soul! *Ganden knocks him aside again* Ganden: You're making the same mistake as last time, this is just a waste of time if you can't put up a fight against me. Hashirama:(Thinking: He's right, I'm being overconfident, that'll be my downfall. Remember what Daichi said, I need a balance between power and speed. I'll use Burning Soul into a shape) *a blue light goes off around Hashirama* Clear Mind! Ganden: What? *Hashirama batters against Ganden's blade until he falls to the floor and slashes him until Ganden jumps away* Ganden: What's this? He's not as powerful like he was with that Burning Soul, but he's definitely faster. Hashirama: Prepare to die! Ganden: It's about time I get serious. *Hashirama and Ganden sprint towards each other and clash back and forth with their blades. They are equal, there is no clear winner until Hashirama knocks Excaliber out of Ganden's hand* Hashirama: I win. Ganden: So you have, kill me I have lost. *Hashirama stabs Ganden's chest, then his corpse falls to the ground* Hashirama: It's over... *sighs* Mysterious Voice: Oh really? Do you think you've won?! Hashirama: Who is that? M-Voice: None of your concern, but there is something that is. After you killed Ganden, not only was his life energy taken into the stone, but his darkness as well. It's going to transform into a monster If you don't kill it, everyone you know will die, but it's not like I care anyway. Hashirama: It's that dangerous? M. Voice:Yes it is. Well good luck, you'll need it. Hashirama: Crap. (The stone transforms into a dark purple beast with a red mayne) Hashirama: That thing is stronger than Ganden, I can't beat it alone. (Asuka and Vrook run to Hashirama's aid with 7 keyblade wielders following them) Vrook: What the hell is that thing? Hashirama: I'll explain later, we need to kill this monster now or who knows how many lives this thing will take. (Hashirama's group run towards the monster in different directions, but the monster kills 5 of the nameless keyblade wielders by slashing them with its claws and sends everyone else flying towards the ground) Asuka: Damn it! Vrook: How are we going to get close to it without getting killed? I don't even think keyblade rider armor will help us very much. Hashirama:*sees Excaliber on the floor, and picks it up* Excaliber is specifically meant to use against opponents of your main attribute. My attribute is light, so it should be the a good counter against that monster since it's attribute is darkness. Hashirama: Everyone! I've got a plan, stand back! Vrook: What are you going to- *Hashirama jumps to the left of the monster and uses strike to hit the monsters left arm with his keyblade, then gets underneath it's right arm and uses Excalibur to stab it's armpit, causing the monster to scream in pain) Hashirama: Strike it's eye with magic now! *they do as he says, then Hashirama stabs the monster's eye with Excaliber and the other with his keyblade* *the monster then explodes* Hashirama: Its dead. Vrook: Good thinking Rikudo.

(After the battle, everyone returns to the Kingdom of Beginnings) (Hashirama is shown typing up his journal, Asuka knocks on his door) Hashirama: Come in. *Asuka opens the door* Hashirama: So how's Ken? Asuka: He's going to be alright, Ken is acting as if he never got taken over by any darkness. Hashirama:Will it be safe for him to use darkness from now on? I don't mind if he uses darkness, we all have light and darkness in our hearts. They both are different parts of who we are. Asuka: It maybe a little while before he can start using his darkness again, but he'll be alright. I just hope we don't have anyone thinking he'll be experimenting with necromancy. Hashirama: Good. Asuka, what they voice said still bothers me. Who is it? What does he want? How was Ganden connected to him, were they in league with each other? I don't know. We need to find out. Asuka: Whoever they are, just remember that you have everyone in the academy to back you up. Just don't have us go on missions like that very often, we can't have the grandmaster off getting himself killed. Hashirama: Yeah, that we can't have. Thank you.

(a dark room is shown, likely that of a church is shown, with an orb glowing dark purple) M. Voice: Ganden did not survive. (his face is not shown only a part of cuirass and arms) ???: Is that so? No matter. He can easily be replaced. They now have Excaliber, but it shouldn't be a problem. M. Voice: Yes my king. What happens next? Are we going to kill Hashirama Rikudo? ???: Patience, patience. All in due time. You know the saying, good things come to those who wait. We need to take our time, rushing the operation can unwittingly result in our demise. When the time comes, I shall take what is mine from the center of all existence. *draws keyblade* The chosen ones will reign and I shall have Hashirama Rikudo experience suffer as he sees all he loved and knew die before his very eyes as his life slowly fades!!!

END of PART 1

Writers Note: Thanks for reading and getting this far. I think I really could have done much better with this, but it turned out alright in my opinion. There are 2 parts left. I'm looking foward to doing them, although you guys know not to expect anything so soon since I spent a lot of time editing Legend's Quest more than this. Part 2 and 3 will be on this page. Sometime after I finish the Legend's Quest storyline and this fanon as well, I will most likely do one on the Keyblade War as well. The 1st part being events leading up to it, 2nd part being the war, and the 3rd being the aftermath. It will, take place in the same universe as Legend's Quest and First Legacy (If you haven't figured it out already) I think I've rumbled on enough here. Until next time, be sure to keep an eye out for Part 2 and future stuff on Legend's Quest.

Story Part 2
Six years have passed since Ganden and his servants were defeated. Ever since that, it's been recommended that I don't repeat my action of going out there and dealing with the threat. I'm the grand master of the Keyblade Wielders and I have other responsibilities. I don't like having others deal with problems, I prefer handling them myself. But the masters in the academy are right. Not much has changed since 6 years ago. We do have more masters than ever before. We would be doing better if their training wasn't so rushed. The masters themselves are still learning, but being a master of the keyblade wouldn't neccessarily make you can expert fighter. Over time the process will usually be longer. The masters are helping me draft out teachings for keyblade apprentices. Even though each master's teachings will be different in style, the basic concept of becoming a master will be the overall outcome. Besides that I've been thinking about things since I created the keyblade. How was it possible for me to create it without the knowledge of such fascinating abilities it has? It's odd that I have to study a weapon that I made myself. Kingdom Hearts even showed itself to me when the weapon was made. How could this have happend? I may have to look into this. I'll see what I can do.

(In the Kingdom of Beginnings, Hashrima is filling out paperwork in the Grand Master's office. It's 9:00 pm at night) Hashirama: Alright. I'm done. *gets up from his chair and starts to walk towards the door*  *a purple lightning is shot through the glass window towards him, he jumps away before it can hit him* Hashirama: What the? *a figure in purple robes with a black cross their neck appears before him* Hashirama: Who are you? Figure: ... Hashirama: Not answearing? Very well, if you're not willing to speak, then let us do so in the form of combat. *summons Crescent Moon Keyblade then runs in the direction of the figure. It uses magic to quickly behind him and casts a dark firaga. Hashirama deflects it. Then the figure takes out a black blade. They start sword dueling and cast spells at each other for a few minutes* Hashirama: Holy! *casts Holy towards the figure, it vanishes as the spell is casted* He got away. Looks like he underestimated me. If he hadn't, I don't know much more longer our fight would have been. Is that even a he, it could be a woman. It was too dark for me to take a good look at his or her face. Whoever they are, I need to know why that assassin tried to make an attempt on my life. I'll need to call for a late council meeting. This can't wait until the morning. (The Council gathers in a large room all with expensive looking chairs surronding a large table. The council currently consits of nine members: Hashirama, Vrook, Asuka, Kyle, Mark, Samuel, Hannah, Hayato, and Greg) Vrook: An assassin? This is most disturbing. Kyle: He/She made it into your office and passing through our security like it was nothing. This one must be highly trained. Samuel: One could assume he or she was a remanent of Ganden's men, but if so then why act now? Hannah: I would hardly believe that to be the case, why would an individual with a power of that magnitude serve him if they are on the same level as us? Hayato: Master Hannah has a point. It's better that we don't assume too much on who this is. We won't be able to order an investigation at the moment, we hardly have anything to work on. Mark: For now we should tighten our security more, who knows when that attacker could strike again? Asuka: Agreed. For now, we need rest. It's 10:11 pm right now. Everyone has had a long day, we'll see into this matter more efficently with fresher minds. Hashirama: Alright then, dismissed! (1 hour later Hashirama gets into his bed) Hashirama: I hope we can find out what's going on. I wonder how Ken's doing where he his right now, I sent him to lend a hand to the local authories in Traverse Town. I think they mentioned something about investigating a crime. That shouldn't be a problem for him.

(Ken is in Traverse the police come to meet him at the docks) Ken: I came to help with your case. Police: Thank you for coming. We'll show you the way. *they start walking to the 2nd district* Ken: So what type of crime is this? Police: Murder. You'll show you when we get there. *they walk to the front of the 2nd District,  the door is shown with yellow tape. The house is surronded by a few police guarding the house* Police: The keyblade master we requested has come, sir. Thomas: Welcome, it's good to meet you. Ken: Likewise. Anyway, why did you request for a keyblade master? Thomas: I'll show you. *they open the door and walk inside* (the house is shown with furniture ripped apart and scattered all over. A corpse of a woman is shown on the floor) Ken: I don't see anything that might have killed her. Thomas:*takes the woman's shirt off and shows the pale skin on the chest* Ken: What the? If her skin is pale in this area that must mean... *uses magic to reveal that her whole body is pale* Ken: She was killed from a Draining Life spell. Thomas: Thank you for helping us confirm it. We have no mages around here, so we thought we would call you up. If the killer used a Draining Life spell, then they must be dangerous. Ken: Would you happen to know why someone might have wanted to kill her? Thomas: I don't think so. Ken: Then can you tell me anything about her that would be connected to the case? Thomas: Well I know that just recently she was able to... Ken: Able to what? Thomas: I should have guessed, she recently was able to summon a keyblade! Ken: Then the killer might have something against keyblade wielders. How long ago did this killing happen? Thomas: Her brother said he saw her two days ago in the house at about 8:20 pm, then the next morning at 10:00 am he came over to her house to give her back a book he borrowed and saw her as we see her now. Ken: So that means the killing happend yesterday. Anything reports of a ship leaving the system? Thomas: No. Ken: Then I believe the killer may be within Traverse Town, unless a dark corridor was used. I'll see if this killer used a dark corridor? Thomas: How can you tell? Ken: Truth is, I've used darkness myself. If dark magic was casted here, then I might be able to find out where it was casted by  allowing myself to feel the darkness around me and my surrondings. This is dangerous especially for darkness users since you can risk darkness getting too close to your soul. *sits down,  touches the ground, and close his eyes. Then meditates and feels the darkness around him* Ken: Aha! It was casted there here *points to his left, then stands up* *conjures a dark corridor* Ken: This dark corridor will now allow me to pursue the killer on the path that they have followed. Thomas: Good luck, I'll continue to have my men stand guard here.

(Ken finds the path to have lead him in a world he does not recognize.  Ancient ruins lie close to his location) Ken: Whatever this place is, whoever I'm looking for has to be hiding here.(point of view switches to a mysterous figure in black and purple robes is seen walking into an ancient fort. Inside there are other hooded figures conducting their own businesses) ???:*enters a room on the highest floor* (The room contains a large table and a few chairs) ???:*takes a seat*  (a hologram appears. A man in black armor is shown, without a helmet. His face is shown to be of a 26 year old man with a mustache and a goatee, his eyes are yellow, hair is black, and skin is fair) ???2: Did you suceed in your mission? ???: That I have, my king. ???2: Excellent, we do not want to risk any keyblade wielders joining with Rikudo and being trained to stand against us. ???: How did the attempt on Hashirama Rikudo's life turn out? ???2: The assassin failed. It looks like we underestimated him. No matter. This will not hinder our plans. You are now on standby. Good work Garrett. Garrett: It was a pleasure, my king. (point of view is shown back to Ken, 3 hours have passed. All he has seen are forest lands and ruins) Ken: I can feel darkness here, so I can sure the killer has not left. At least I brought food with me, this will be a long trip. If I were to use my keyblade rider, it might attract attention. (1 day later) (Ken sees the fort) Ken: So this is where they went. And it looks like that killer is apart of some group. I should contact the others and wait. *an alarm goes off* Ken: Shit, so much for trying to stay undetected. (Everyone residing in the fort comes out. In total they make up 152 people) Ken: This is not good. Seems as though I have no choice but to fight.*draws keyblade* Let's go! *he barely manages to kill all of them, but 26 of them were wounded. 25 of them escape, but Ken manages to get one before he escapes* Ken: *stomps on the man's rib cage* Now, what can you tell me about who about that assasin that killed the woman in Traverse Town? I guessing that they have left since I don't feel any familar scent in any way. While you're at it, tell me who you work for. Man: Long live the king! *combusts into flames and dies*. Ken: This is the same way that dark knight that attacked the kingdom of beginnings died. Most of the Knights were killed off 6 years ago. Are they perhaps connected somehow? Was Ganden associated with this king? Whoever this king is, he appears to be a much larger threat. *gets on keyblade rider*

(2 days later) *Ken walks into Hashirama's office room* Hashirama: You look like you ran into some trouble. What happened? Ken:*tells him of everything that happend* Hashirama: They have the same robes as the assassin that tried to kill me 2 days ago. Ken: This can't be a coincidence. We know a king is behind it, but who? Hashirama:Yes, "who?" indeed. Good work, you've gotten us to narrow down what is behind all of this. Ken: Anything else you want me to do? Hashirama: You're on standby for now, get some rest until there is need of you. Ken: Thank you. *walks out*. Hashirama: I should send a message to Pope Jerid of  Twilight Town. He is an expert in combating darkness magic.

(Meanwhile in Castle Darkhan of Ruhm) (in the hallway) Daichi: Advisor Florin, may I speak to you? Florin: What is it? If you can't tell, I have business for the king to attend to. Daichi: Don't you find it odd that the King hasn't exited his quarters for a few days now? It's not normal. Florin: He's just conducting business for the trade routes, nothing more. Daichi: That's your department, why would King Adas Shar Darkhan be working on traderoutes? Florin: I am very busy. I have no time to speak to you of the King's every action. I can assure you, all is running as it should. *keeps walking to his destination* Daichi: Just what is he doing?

(in the meeting room Asuka and Vrook are walking) Vrook: So we've assigned keyblade some of our own to locate those with potential to wield the keyblade. From Ken's report, a group is after them. Our plan is to escort them here safely. I'll be in one of those teams tomarrow. Asuka: I'm part of the wielders that was assigned for patrolling the city nearby, I'll also be starting tomarrow. What is Ken doing? Vrook: He just came back, so he's on standby for now until we can find him something he can do. As for Master Rikudo, I'm sure he's been able to come up with something since Ken came back.

(3 hours later, during 5:00 pm in the afternoon, Hashirama recieves a message back from Pope Jerid) Hashirama: Let's see, "I might be able to help. Come by whenever you can and I'll tell you what I can." Alright, I'll leave a few minutes. I'll send a message to the entire council informing them that I'll be out. *sends it through his datapad* Good. *enters the ship he used 6 years ago* The trip will take a full day, I'll need food and a bed for this trip. Keyblade riders are best suited for short distance travel. *embarks for Twlight Town*

(the ship docks on Twlight Town, Hashirama exits and walks towards the Chapel) *Jerid is about to open his door until he sees Hashirama* Jerid: Hashirama, you made earlier than thought. Hashirama: We have more than enough of us to handle the case in my abscene. Jerid: Well come on,  it's early in the morning so no one is inside yet. *they walk inside the Chapel and sit in the seats near the altar* Hashirama: *explains what has happened since the attempt on his life* Jerid: Oh my... Hashirama: Can you lend your aid to us? Your skills for combating dark magic will be a great asset. Jerid: I'll be of use in any way I can. *Daichi walks inside the Chapel* Hashirama: Daichi? What are you doing here? Daichi: I heard about the attempt on your life and the murdered woman. So I knew you would seek him out. So I came here to help. Hashirama: Would you know something about what's going on and who's behind it? Daichi: As a matter of fact I think I do. (A Dark Thorn heartless breaks into the Chapel, grabs the Pope, and runs away) Hashirama: Damn it! They got Jerid! Daichi: Let's hurry up and catch up before that heartless is out of range. (Hashirama and Daichi follow the Dark Thorn and catch up with it at the train station, where they see a dark knight, a jester in dark clothing, and a man in purely black armor with a helmet over his face) Armored Man: Good work. Hashirama: You're not getting away! *uses Raganarok, the jester uses reflectaga and sends it right back, but Hashirama dodges it*  Armored Man: Our fight will come soon enough, Hashirama Rikudo. Then we will find out how Kingdom Hearts has chosen you. Hashirama: (Thinking: how can he know about my meeting with Kingdom Hearts? It happened 12 years ago, and I told no one of it) Daichi: That voice... *looks at the man* Why are you doing this? Armored Man: *grabs the pope* You will deal with them. *disappears in a dark corridor* Hashirama: From the dark knight's prescene, we can confirm their association with this enemy. Jester:*takes out his dual daggers* So you survived against that monster three years ago. Well done. Hashirama: You were that voice? Jester: My name is Egon. Allow me to see how skilled you are! *runs towards Hashirama* Daichi: I'll deal with the knight and the heartless then. *Hashirama takes out his keyblade. His blade clashes with Ebon's several times until his keyblade gets close to Ebons neck* Hashirama: Checkmate. Ebon:*quickly gets behind his opponent and his blades above Hashiramas' neck* You think so, eh? Hashirama: Yes I do. *has Excaliber in his left hand next to Ebon's chest* Ebon: I could stab your head and you can impale through my chest and heart. Its a stalemate. I highly anticipate our next meeting. *disappears in dark corridor* *Daichi disposes the enemies easily on his end* Daichi: That armored man is King Adas Darkhan. Hashirama: I've heard of the Darkhan Dynasty. So he's behind it? How did you know, did you meet him before? Daichi: I serve, I mean served him. I was one of the Royal Guard. I suspected he was up to something when he had not exited his quarters for a long period and when one of his advisors said he was dealing with trade routes, I knew something was wrong. Hashirama: So he's been behind it all. Would you know his motives as well? Daichi: He is a man of battle. His motivations could be anything: to destroy, conquer, or perhaps both. I do not know. Hashirama: In any case, we need to alert the council and take our next course of action. (Thinking: They toke Jerid... damn it)  Daichi: I will come with you. I will no longer be welcome in the Rapture. Hashirama: The world where the Darkhan Dynasty is? Daichi: Yes. *they take Hashirama's ship to Kingdom of Beginnings*

(Hashirama and Daichi run inside the council meeting room once they land) Samuel: Did you hear? Hashirama: Hear? What happend?! Hannah: 11 worlds were just conquered this morning! Daichi: Is it Adas' doing? Vrook: It is under the Darkhan banner, I believe so. Asuka: I just got a message. 5 more worlds were just conquered right now! Hashirama: How strong of a military do they all share? Vrook: They're weak worlds. Daichi: Then he's just starting small. He's going to spread his reign of terror across the universe. Hashirama: Even worse than that. He has the heartless to support him and it looks like he has a greater motive... I'm going to Asgard. Asuka: What for? Hashirama: I need to see the leader of the Sacred Ones. We have no established military. Our keyblade wielders aren't enough. This Darkhan Empire has a powerful army. They continue to spread their influence throughout the systems. I need the help of the Sacred Ones, besides the Darkhan Empire they are a larger mlitary and political power. Without them, we are lost! Daichi: I'm coming along with you. *Ken walks inside* Ken: I'll come with you. Hashirama: No, you all need to do your parts. Vrook, you're in charge until I return. Vrook: Yes.

(Hashirama and Daichi leave on a ship, Asgard as their set course) Hashirama: Asgard is pretty far from here. The entire trip should take about a week or two. I've never been there myself so I don't know how long it would take exactly. Anyway Daichi, did you have a family  in Rapture? Daichi: Yes. My mother and father. They are ordinary citizens. They'll be worried about me. Hashirama: I'm sorry. (1 day later) Hashirama: The ship is going to run low on fuel. Let's land on the nearest world close by. *they land in Ancient Ruins* Daichi: Looks like this world's name has been long forgotten. Hashirama: Yeah. *finishes loading the fuel in* It'll be an hour before this thing is ready to go. I'm very curious of these ruins, I'll take a look while waiting. Daichi: I'll stay here, someone needs to look after it. *Hashirama walks through the halls of the ruins* Hashirama: The gray coloring hasn't faded. The texture is very smooth. I wonder if there's anything else besides this walls. *he sees a large empty room with textures of vines on the walls. He sees a young woman about his age studying them. Her hair color is blue, her mage robes are red * Hashirama: Hi, are you investigating these ruins? Azami: Yeah, I investigate ruins for a living. I enjoy viewing places from the past. Other than looking at ruins, I travel to many different places. Hashirama: I've seen a few ruins, but I mostly read about them. Do you do this as a profession or a hobby? Azami: Hobby. I prefer it this way. What is your name? Hashirama: Hashirama, Hashirama Rikudo. Azami: That's a nice name. I'm Azami Nori. Hashirama: Nice to meet you. Azami: What are you doing in this place? Hashirama: I needed to refuel my ship so I came here while I wait for it to get ready. I'm on my way to Asgard. Azami: Asgard, that's a place I've been wanting to go to. Hashirama: Can't just fly over there with your ship? Azami: My ship was destroyed. I've been in this world for 2 days. Hashirama: You could come with me and my friend. We'd be happy to give you a lift. Azami: Thank you. So can you tell me why you're going to Asgard? Hashirama: Where do I begin? *explains the incident with Ganden and his dark knights, along with what's going on currently* Azami: So you're the one that invented the keyblade. Amazing. Can I study your's on the ship? Hashirama: Yeah. Azami: I'll be happy to help with the fight against King Adas? Hashirama: Are you sure? Azami: Yes. Hashirama: Well once we get back, I'll find something for you to do. Azami: Ok. Hashirama: So you want to see what's beyond that door? Azami: Yes, but my magic can't open it. It must have powerful magic over it. Hashirama: Maybe this will help. *summons keyblade* Azami: Such a beattiful weapon. The carvings are interesting. *Hashirama opens the door* Hashirama: Alright, let's see what we can find. *they walk through many halls until they find a wall with a giant carving of a heart* Hashirama: This carving looks very familar. Azami: You've seen this before? Hashirama: This is... Kingdom Hearts! I see it with my own eyes when I create the keyblade. There's no mistaking it, this is a carving of Kingdom Hearts. *a gray robed ghost comes from the wall* Ghost: The key. You are the key? Hashirama: What? I did make the keyblade, what do you need with the keyblade. Ghost: Key. Needed to stop advance before shadow is everywhere. Shadow want openers. Hashirama: What are you talking about? Ghost:*goes insane and attempts to attack the party with magic missile, but Azami blocks with relectaga, then draws her sword* *Hashirama defeat the ghost easily* Ghost: Key. Put shadow in place. *disappears* Hashirama: That was weird. I remember King Adas saying "Then we will found out how Kingdom Hearts chose you." Good question, what does Kingdom Hearts want with me? What exactly is Kingdom Hearts? *they walk back to the ship* Daichi: Who's this? Hashirama: I'll explain on the way. Let's go.

(while the ship is going to Asgard. Azami is examining Excaliber* Azami: This looks amazing. I read that it can kill gods. Not a lot of weapons can do that. Can I see your keyblade? Hashirama: Yes, but only I can actually hold it. *draws his keyblade and lays it on the table* Azami: You call this one Crescent Moon right? Hashirama: Yeah. Azami: It looks so beautiful. I can't keep my eyes off it. Hashirama: *takes a picture of his keyblade and hands the photo to Azami* Here, now you can look it even when you don't see me using it. Azami: Thank you so much. Hashirama: No problem. Anyway, what do you make of what the ghost said? Especially with happened when I made the keyblade and saw Kingdom Hearts? Daichi: The ghost was vague so I can't make out what it's saying. Azami: Well we know Kingdom Hearts chose you for something. It must be an honor. No one has ever been able to claim such a thing. I'd like to see, even if it is just one time. Hashirama: Anyone would. Asgard comes first though.

(4 days later, the party lands on an Elvish world known as Everstone to restock on supplies) Hashirama: We'll need to restock on some food, fuel, a change of clothes, etc. Besides, you only have 3 robes right Azami? Azami: Yeah. Hashirama: You two Daichi, besides that armor you barely brought any clothing when going to see the pope. Daichi: Right. Hashirama: You guys shop for clothes, I'll get everything else. (he spends 1 hour making the orders to bring the requested items to his ship) Elf Employee: Will that be all sir? Hashirama: Yes, thank you very much. Elf Employee: Quite a order you made, headed on a long trick? Hashirama: Yes, I'm going to Asgard. Elf Employee: Asgard is a nice place from what I've been told. Unlike most worlds five races inhabit it. Elves, Dark Elves, Dwarves, Humans, and Telnights. Hashirama: Telnights? Don't they live usually live in worlds with a large portion of it being ocean? Elf: Yes, you really study more academicly more than most humans I come across. Hashirama: Well my parents did say I acted like a elf in a human's body. So how long will the order take? Elf Employee: Your order will take about 2 days. Feel free to look at what Everstone has to offer. Hashirama: Alright. (Thinking: At least we have other council members to take care of things will I'm gone. But it still feels weird to be relaxing in this fashion.) (Hashirama meets up with Daichi and Azami after they are done buying clothes) Hashirama: It's going to be another two days until we get our supplies are going to arrive in 2 days. Meanwhile we could enjoy what this city has to offer. Daichi: I don't like having to be delayed, but there's not much we can do. We did leave right away so we would have to restock anyway. Azami: I haven't been in Elven cities for a while, this should be fun.

(Later at night. The party rented two rooms at an inn. Azami has her own room while Hashirama and Daichi get one room and sleep on two seperate beds) Daichi: Did you take any precautions? Hashirama: Yeah, if any hostile target tries to get through this window they'll be attacked by the enchantment I placed on the windows. *heartless try yo break the windows, but get defeated by the magic missile projected from the windows* Daichi: Impressive.

(1 day later the party walks outside the inn) Hashirama: Daichi,  thank you for testing me before I fought Ganden 6 years ago. It let me use what I call Clear Mind of the Pure? Daichi: Explain how this works. Hashirama: It involves using light energy. It gives a balance between increases to my speed and strength. No sacfrices are given. Daichi: Nice you see you learned from that experience.
