Kotori's Story {Part 1}

It all begins with a little girl named Kotori who lived in Radiant Garden with her older brother, Mizuki. This was the time when Radiant Garden was just about to be gulfed in darkness to become what is known as Hollow Bastion. One day, Kotori was playing adventures in marketplace with Kaze, when all the sudden, pure black creatures rose from the ground, the Heartless. The Heartless began to attack the innocent bystanders of the town, stealing their hearts. Kotori fled the scene as fast as possible when a Heartless fiercely knocked her to the ground. She swung her wooden sword at the creature, only missing it by a few inches like it'd ever help. Kaze shot like a rocket towards the Heartless, whipping his own sword across the chest of it, unable to phase it. Unexpectedly, a hand from a shadowy portal grabbed her shoulder, Kotori cried Kaze's name frighteningly. Kaze spun around swiftly to see Kotori being pulled in, struggling her best to get out, and reached for her hand. As soon as he had a hold on it, Kotori lost her conscience in the battle to break free.

After a few hours, Kotori woke from her deep slumber and found herself in her room with Mizuki watching over her. He told her that Leon had found her lying outside in the marketplace, unconscious. Her immediate question was where Kaze one. The only answer she got was “no where to be found.” The news of Kaze missing alarmed Kotori, which made her set out to find him, first by searching the town. The marketplace was the best choice to start at to investigate the disappearance of Kaze. Whilst she entered the marketplace, she noticed nothing of the strange till a black portal rose from the corner of her eye to take form. It was the same one that engulfed her earlier. She slowly wandered over, observing it carefully to make she wouldn’t be swallowed instantly. She decided to try to slide her hand through the blackness when she lost her footing and descend into the portal.

Kotori laid unconsciously on the hard ground, till she woke with pain in streaming through her body. She lifted her head slowly, then her body till she stood up high. This was not just a strange setting for her, but she could not tell who she was. The only thing that was left in her mind was her name. Kotori, a voice called out from behind; it was Yuffie. She found Kotori wandering from an alley in the First District of Traverse Town and brought her to Leon and Aerith in the hotel they were staying at in the Alley. They all realized that Kotori had lost her memories when she arrived in Traverse Town which was strange for them because nothing like that ever happened to them when they came. All they could do now was take her in and help her recover her memory, at her pace. Slowly, she remembered who Leon, Aerith, Yuffie, and Cid were.

After some time in Traverse Town, Kotori bumped into a yellow dog with long floppy ears one day. She follows him to an alley off of the First District where a little boy with brown spiky hair, laid unconsciously on the cold ground. Slowly, she reached her hand down to see if he was alive when suddenly, Yuffie called her name out back in the open, in front of Cid’s shop. Kotori drew her hand back and looked for Yuffie but as soon as she realized that she was farther than her voice seemed, she reinsured herself and walked off, forgetting to tell the others of the situation of this boy. Except, the boy was still alive and stopped by Cid’s shop, where Kotori was just assigned to work, to found out where he was and how to get back to Destiny Islands. The response he got was that this was Traverse Town and that he’d never see his world again and disappointed, he left the shop.

Soon after, Kotori was introduced to Sora, Donald and Goofy when they had all gotten together after the Heartless battle. She remembered Sora, he was the kid that lay unconscious in the alley. She listened to their mission: to travel the worlds to find King Mickey, for Donald and Goofy, and Kairi for Sora. The thought of traveling to worlds sparked one memory of her leaving a sunset environment filled with dull, old buildings. Now she knew what she was doing: on a search to find… someone. She couldn’t remember who but her heart urged her on to find this person. The time to say good-bye to them quickly approached them and Kotori bid her farewells to Sora, Donald, and Goofy till they meet again. The hero and his company got onto their Gummi Ship and flew away, to the next world of their adventures.

Kotori waited days to weeks, till suddenly, the order of the worlds was changed. Kingdom Hearts was closed and the lost worlds returned. Sora had saved the worlds and returned the peace that was desired by all. She and the others in Traverse Town disappeared and reappeared back in their hometown. Kotori was welcomed back to Hallow Bastion with the open arms of her brother, worried about her for the longest time. Everything returned to normal… except one thing. Where was this mystery man in Kotori’s memories and why doesn’t no one know him?

Presenting the child form of Kotori~!

That's my mini-update. I'll be fixing profiles later and adding Mizuki's to Kara's request! And perhaps the mystery man ;D Hint hint~

As a 14-year-old, she lived with her older brother, Mizuki, who is a blacksmith and owns a weapon shop. She learns her swordplay techniques from Mizuki. She also has a best friend since they grew up together, he has vowed to protect her ever since. When Ansem the Wise is banished from Radiant Garden, the world is overwhelmed by darkness. Her best friend is then announced missing and Kotori begins a search for him. Since the world is engulfed in darkness, she wanders in a black portal and is teleported to a new world. She falls from the sky into Traverse Town and has lost her memories. She meets Leon, Yuffie, Aerith, and Cid there. Soon, she encounters Sora, Donald, and Goofy who have been traveling to different worlds. Believing she can find the world she came from, she remembers where she is from, Hollow Bastion. When Sora puts the worlds back together by defeating Ansem and locking Kingdom Hearts, Kotori returns to Hollow Bastion and remembers more of her past.

~~~

So here we have it, the profiles of both Kotori and Haneri. Haneri's name is deprived from "hane" which means "feather" (and a feather comes from a bird a.k.a. Kotori), and adding a nice sounding ending to it.

There's pictures of them in my portfolio if you haven't seen them yet. I'll probably make character reference sheets later~
