Chapter 1: Here to Meet a Psycho

A girl got out of the back of the car. She was about 13 years of age, with long blonde hair, multicoloured eyes, and an unreadable look on her face. She was also quite tall. She wore  black jeans and a top, dark, inky, indigo blue with a massive collar to it and the sleeves got wider from the elbow. On the top it said:

ANOTHER SIDE. ANOTHER STORY.

[DEEP DIVE]

She walked up to a big building. The building was completely circular, no corners what so ever and was painted a cream colour. A manky colour. It made it look like some big important building. The girl didn’t really think it was important if she was going there. She racked here brain to remember what it was. . . that was it! It was some kind of a school (it looked more like some kind of prison or a  loony bin), and she had been plucked out of a bunch of kids to go meet some kid who stayed there. Apparently the kid was rather dangerous and liked to destroy stuff. Like people for instance.

        The girl walked in through doors that were almost twice her height. Inside it was quite warm, definitely a whole lot warmer than it had been outside. Outside it was freezing. Thank god she came in a car. The room she was in, she suspected was some sort of reception or office. It was better decorated than outside, in here it was pleasant and welcoming, outside it was bitter and foreboding. There was a desk near the back wall and a lady sat behind painting her finger nails a nice purple colour. The girl made a mental note to ask where the lady had got it from. On one side of the desk, there was a flight of stairs. On the other, a lift. Behind the desk there was a door saying ‘Staff Only’. There was also a group of comfy looking sofa’s and chairs and near them, yet another door that one said ‘Kitchen and Dining Room’. Yum food. There were two more doors on the wall opposite that one. those were the bathroom doors for visitors if you hadn’t guessed.

        The girl decided it just might be a good idea to ask the Nail Painting Lady just where she was supposed to be going, and of course, if she knew, why had she been picked to meet this psycho. Girl approached the desk, biting her lip, why did she have to speak? She hated speaking to strangers, it made her blush. The Nail Painting Lady looked up from nail painting, smiled and put aside her nail polish. Girl wondered how in hell Nail Painting Lady had heard her walk across the carpet when she didn’t hear her open the door, and those doors had creaked a lot.

"Um...?" Girl began.

"Oh! You‘ll be Miss. Moore, I presume? Take the lift up to the Second floor, Room 16. Have a nice day!"

"Oh... er, yeah, I will... sure, thanks..." Girl went to the lift, pressed the button, got inside and keyed in ‘Second Floor’, the doors shut and the lift lurched upwards.

        Girl thought about what Nail Painting Lady had said. ‘Have a nice day’?! For Gods Sake, she was here to meet a psycho! It made her wonder if Nail Painting Lady had any idea what was going on here except what colour she wanted to paint her nails...

        The lift stopped on the Second Floor and Girl got out. Room 16? Girl walked down the corridor reading the number on each door. 22. 20. 18. 16! Girl looked at the door. It didn’t look so different, and any kid could reside there, sadly ’Any Kid’ didn’t reside there. Why her? What happened if the kid decided to kill her? She’d only seen two people in the whole building, including her! What happened if psycho kid had decided to scarper? What would happen then? This was stupid. Shouldn’t somebody be making sure she didn’t get hurt? Like a bodyguard or something?

        The people who had chosen her had explained what had happened. They had told her some whacked-out story about some 14 year old called Sora, who has a magic key the size of a sword called a ‘Keyblade’, who went round a bunch of worlds locking keyholes with the help of... of... oh she couldn’t even think it, with the help of a duck and a dog. Four others came into it. They were Sora’s friends Riku and Kairi. Now Kairi, also 14, had her heart taken, but she’s okay now and Riku, who’s 15, is currently locked in some place called ‘Kingdom Hearts’. Then this King Mickey comes into it. He’s also locked in Kingdom Hearts, too. And then it comes to the bad guy Ansem. He created these things called ‘Heartless’ which took peoples hearts. Now after Sora defeated Ansem he disappeared in a flash of light and then, according  to the people who explained it, he appeared in Traverse Town as a 10 year old boy. And know she was about to face any one of the people she’d just mentioned and has to speak to them. Oh joy. Three guesses on who she’d probably find . She wished it was some kind of joke, but sadly it wasn’t. The whole thing Keyblade thing was true, her world had heard all about it and sent someone to speak to a psycho. She had been chosen out of a group of 20, ages ranging from 11-17, she had been chosen because she had abilities, whatever that meant. She bit her lip and got ready.

        She knocked on the door. No reply. She knocked again. No reply again. She decided just to go in. She opened the door a crack and peered in.

"Um... hello?" She said to whoever was in there. No reply. She went in.
