Kingdom Hearts: Heroes of Hope

Earlier that morning Alias found himself staring off into the horizon as the sun began to rise above it. He wasn't exactly sure what he was feeling, but something was coming. He didn't like the feeling it gave him. He had been feeling it for a while and it was now closer than ever. He was so focused that he couldn't even hear his dad calling his name.

"Alias!" The Mayor yelled once again while placing his hand on his son's shoulder.

Alias was startled back to reality at the touch. He took the wooden sword in his hand and whipped himself around to stab whoever it was in the neck. He stopped just short of his father's neck. "Oh. I'm sorry, father. You startled me."

The Mayor nervously rubbed his neck before letting off a laugh. "My dear boy, what on Earth do you have to be so scared of?"

Alias put the sword in his waistband. "Nothing, I hope. I was just lost in thought. Did you need something?"

"Oh, yes. I'm going to be very busy today. You and your friends be safe with your raft building."

Alias's eyes widened. He knew!? "You knew?"

The Mayor laughed. "Of course I knew. I know about everything on our humble island. I know you believe you're from another world, but you are a gift from another island. We couldn't find your parents, but I'm sure they're out there somewhere."

Alias shook his head. "My parents... You're the only parent I need. But I know I'm from another world. I don't know how I know. I just feel it and Tsu has to be out there on another world, too. We're going to find him and bring him back."

The Mayor knew there was no convincing his son. He gave him a smile and a warm hug. "I love you, son. If you truly believe an adventure in other worlds awaits you I'll trust you as well. Just protect your friends with all your might and come back home."

Alias smirked. "Come on, dad. I'm Alias, King of the Beach. That's guaranteed."

Alias was putting in work on the raft. It felt nice being able to bond over this. He still couldn't believe that he managed to convince them this was a good idea and that there were other worlds out there. They had gathered a lot of wood for the base of it. They needed the space and the ability to hold all of their weight. He still wasn't sure exactly how all of this was supposed to work, but if he could arrive here as a baby, Tsu could leave, and Morgan could come here from the sea then the sea was their way out. He just hoped it didn't require them somehow going underwater just to make it to another world. He could swim, he just wouldn't want to risk everyone drowning so far out at sea.

When Levi approached he turned to wave at him before going back to roping the wood in place. "Thank you guys for helping out and entertaining this crazy idea of ours. You really didn't have to."

What a pleasant surprise to wake up to. I'll work on Alias's post.

Kingdom Hearts: Heroes of Hope

@Little Bird Yes to Zendaya.

Kingdom Hearts: Heroes of Hope

Alias's voice claim. Static from Young Justice.

@Dragonfly 9

Separate narratives sound good to me.

Kingdom Hearts: Heroes of Hope

So, I was going to write the first IC post this morning, but I need to ask you guys first: Do you want all or one of your characters to go through KH1's "tutorial" before waking up on Destiny Islands, and do you just want to start on Destiny Islands, and Lucian(or whoever) just wakes up from a dream or something?

@Dragonfly 9

I'm thinking of having Alias have his Dive to the Heart right after the world is consumed instead of before.

But Lucian could have his at the beginning and get his first real clue that his mom is more than she lets on.

Hider

Very much so.

@Sadu

Yes! Even more of a reason for Alias to have been drawn to her in her short time in the island.

My Hider

She adds to his theory that there are other worlds since she showed up out of nowhere and he could probably innately sense her magical energy despite having no clue what it is he's sensing.

Morgan is gonna need to go with on that one :P

@Sadu

Potential Spoilers, but is Morgan meant to be

My Hider

Morgan le Fay?

If so, awesome!

Kingdom Hearts: Heroes of Hope

Really for me it depends what group is going where. Pretty sure Morgan's story is she recently just washed up on the island, was probably found by someone, and has been since just sitting on the beach staring off into the distance at nothing in particular. So she doesn't necessarily have friends or ties to anyone right now.

@Sadu

How recent is recent? Alias and Hoshi would know of her at least with how often they're at the beach and how Alias took it upon himself to look after everyone.

@Sadu

It's only for the beginning because having everyone drop into Traverse Town would be a little too hectic. But it's only after the Heartless attack and consume Destiny Islands. Most characters have been raised there so we can build relations pre-IC based on what we have so far and explore more of it in the IC on the Island.

I have Alias going to Wonderland to set things in motion for that part of the story and to spice things up a bit just so it's not note for note. I'm not sure what everyone else's plan is yet. But I figured we'd all either meet up there or at Olympus.
