Chapter 02: Heartless overflowing
The city of Izrah was being attacked by Heartless. The streets where full of them. Danny Stuivenberg, a teenage boy wielding the Kingdom Key was out to clear the streets. The sky turned purple dark, as Danny rushed through the city. He attacked one of the Heartless in the back, but then more came after him. Strongly overpowered by the enormous number, Danny searched for a way out of the street. He bashed all the Shadows out of his way, as he makes his way through the avenue.
''Wherever did these guys come from?'' he panted, as he kept running.
He then arrived at an intersection. Heartless approached him from all four sides. Danny stood ground, as he bounced off as much heartless as he could. He was breaking from exhaust a few minutes later, and sweat dropped down from his forehead. He collapsed, as he saw several Shadow Heartless lunge at him. He closed his eyes, and covered his face with crossed hands, balled into a fist. Suddenly, he heard a clinging sound, and he saw a flash of light through the cover of his eyelids.
''Need some help?'' Grouch said, while swinging the Hero's Crest heroic forth and back.
Grouch reached his hand to Danny, in order to pull him up. With a swift manoeuvre, Grouch sliced another two Shadows behind Danny. Danny ran to the huge crowd, and he slashed through dozens of Heartless.
''pant... pant... there sure are many...'' sighed Grouch, as he followed Danny through the way he created between the Heartless.

Valeria Monera was walking down the countryside with his friend Trick Memo. Trick was a young boy at the age of 11, but he behaved much older.
''I'm hungry,'' he said, as he grabbed a slice of bread out of his bag.
Izrah was in sight. Valeria looked up in the sky, she saw a purple cloud hanging above the city. She gasped, as she peeked over her shoulder at Trick, who was walking behind her, delightfully eating his sandwich. Trick also noticed the sky.
''Are we gonna fight?'' Trick grinned, appearing the Photon Debugger Keyblade.
Valeria panicked, as she turned around, and she demanded.
''No, You're too young! Stay here, it's safer''
The Star Seeker Keyblade appeared in her hand, as she ran off to the city of Izrah, and Trick stood behind. He put away the Photon Debugger, as he walked in circles, bored. He kicked away a gravel, and complained:
''Stupid Valeria, I'm not to young!''
Approaching Izrah, Valeria already noticed that there was not a soul on the streets. It was quiet. A soft breeze flew through the deserted streets. Valeria walked through Izrah, and she arrived at a street sign. She read it, making her lose attention for the roads. Suddenly, she heard a splashing sound behind her. It sounded like liquid falling on hard ground. She looked behind her, and she saw a Shadow raise out of the ground.
''W-what is that...'' she quietly said.
She never saw a creature like that before, and took three cautious steps backward. At first, the Heartless appeared friendly, but then the Shadow swiftly jumped at her, startling Valeria. She dodged out of the way, and threw the Star Seeker at the creature. It fused with the ground again, making the Star Seeker miss its target. The Heartless cowardly fled towards the intersection. Valeria followed him, and she soon learned of all the action taking place.
At the countryside, Trick was leaning against a tree close by. He was whispering in himself.
''...I'm not too young... I'll prove it!'' he complained.
''I'll prove it!!'' he yelled out, appearing Photon Debugger out of rage, and he rushed toward the city.
All the Heartless began gathering in the centre of Izrah. Danny and Grouch both ran towards the creatures. Numerous Heartless were slain, but the battle wasn't over, not in the least bit. The Shadow Heartless moved in circles around the two heroes. Suddenly, out of the sky, Valeria jumped into the overpopulated gang of Heartless. Light emerged out of the dark mess, and the part of the crowd exploded, and vanished.
''Who is she?'' Danny questioned.
''Is that an angel?'' Grouch blushed.
A Shadow attacked Valeria from behind. With a swift motion, she cut the thing in half. The Heartless drove her further into the circle. Their number was decreased, but there were still too many. Danny, Grouch and Valeria fought off each Shadow that came close, thinking of a way to defeat them.
Trick confidentially ran through the streets of Izrah. He also noticed no one was there on the streets. He suddenly heard the sound of breaking glass. The emotion of confidence suddenly turned into fright. He then realised it would've indeed been better if he'd stayed at the countryside. He stopped running, and went into a battle stance.
''W-who's there!'' he stuttered.
He then heard a sound like something hit a car. Trick turned around, and he also saw a shadow. He merged into the ground, and led him to the centre. Trick didn't hesitate to follow him at once, and ran after the Shadow. When seeing the gigantic brawl going on in the centre, Trick froze. He didn't know what to do, when noticing Valeria fighting for her life, he frowned his eyebrows. He pointed Photon Debugger to the purple sky, and the Keyblade lit up.
The circle of Heartless around Danny, Grouch and Valeria were struck by several bolts of lightning, making their number decrease even more. The Heartless froze for a while, enabling Valeria to notice Trick who still managed to get involved in this mess.
''Trick! I told you to stay out of the city!!'' she yelled, but Trick couldn't hear her.
The Heartless stormed towards him, but Trick fought them off. Trick was pinned down, but Valeria supported him. Valeria and Trick had their backs to each other, while keeping the Heartless off of them.

Another event took place on the rooftops. A guy wielding the Monochrome Keyblade was also forced to defend himself. He was obviously well skilled, and The Heartless couldn't reach him. The Heartless gave up, and noticed the three other Keyblade wielders down the street. They decided to jump down there and join the massive fight.
The guy looked down from the rooftop. He jumped down there as well to help the three. Once he landed on the street, he had hit the ground so hard that a shock wave occurred, decreasing the Heartless for another bit.
''Another Key wielder?'' Grouched questioned, while asking his name.
''Ru.. ar... Russell!'' he said, while holding off the Heartless as much as he could.
Russell pushed off the Heartless and then followed with a great swing from the brutal Monochrome Keyblade. The Heartless was being launched back, damaging some of the others in process. There didn't seem to come an end to the number of Heartless, and the five Keyblade wielders where driven towards each other. Once again, they where pinned down, holding off every attack.
Everyone was exhausted, while the Heartless didn't feel anything for cancelling the massive onslaught. On the streets, away from the slaughter, four figures were wandering about. They seemed to be looking for something...
