The Untold Darkness

by: Paul J Calzada

" I should have been the one to enter the darkness, but no, father had to choose Riku. I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! I SURPASSED HIM IN EVERYTHING! AND NOW HE HAS A SEAT ON THE THRONE OF DARKNESS! but at least I'm the chosen one for the haunted soul keyblade... damn him... DAMN MY BROTHER!!!"

"Koji hold on... (huff huff) hey wait for me...!"Riku said in his three-year-old voice.

"HAHA. Well catch up Riku, learn faster, or in this case run faster. Father summoned us an hour ago,"said Koji to Riku, yards behind him.

"Well if you just carried me it would be faster now wouldn't it!" replied Riku.

"Nope, you need to get better and you'll never learn if i carry you... so tough it up you baby!"

At last Koji and Riku made it to the evil gates to Ansem's room. "Well let's hope Father isn't mad," said Koji to Riku. They went through the gates and saw Ansem standing by the fire, studying. "Hello?," Koji echoed.

"Ah. its about time. Where were you? I was waiting...," said Ansem in a steady voice.

"I'm sorry Father, we were on our way here when Jeagen found us," said Koji. Jeagan was Ansem's assistant.

"But I thought we were at the beach?" said Riku in a whisper.

"Shhhhh!" exlaimed Koji.

"What was this? Did you just lie to me Koji?" asked Ansem.

"Yes... I'm sorry father,"replied Koji.

"Oh well. Well... I made plans for you two anyway, that doesn't require you both to be near each other,"said Ansem.

"WHAT?!?!"exclaimed both boys.

"Koji, you will go with the organization, and you, Riku, will go with your mother,"declared Ansem. Before he left Koji obtained a little charm in the shape of a door.

~~Okay now we will skip 11 years when sora killed Ansem and Riku was subdued by the light at the end.~~

While Koji was living with the organization, they were attacked by heartless, and that's when Ansem's little charm came in handy. It turned into the keyblade of soul not yet put to rest, also called Haunted soul keyblade. Koji was then after known as the hero and secret weapon to the Unknown Organization. He was known as #0, on account of the fact that he had to be hidden so no one would expect him. Koji soon started practicing with his Keyblade, and the newfound abilities he got along with his weopon. He soon figured out how to use the "Warp Step" and "Forbidden Gates" techniques, but had yet to learn how to change somone's hearts.

"Koji!! Koji!!," Axel yelled frantically, "Come quick. I have new news!!" Koji used the Forbidden Gates technique to get there faster, since the Warp Step can only go so far.

"WHAT DO YOU WANT DAMMIT I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF MY TRAINING!!" yelled Koji.

"I'm so sorry to announce that... Lord Ansem has passed...," said Axel. Koji soon after said, "Who..."

"Who? Who what?", asked Axel and Larxene.

"WHO DID THIS!!!"

"The one they call Sora the Key master," said Vixen.

"Him.... He is now enemy #1," said Koji, as calmly as he possibly could. At that moment he started wearing a black blind fold over his eyes so that his true darkness will never show. That night he stayed up all night reading the notes his father left behind, Ansem's Report. For 5 weeks he was not found by any of the organization members. When he finally came back, he had a shadow around him and summoned a heartless from a shadow he casted.

Soon he became the strongest Unknown ever. Also, the day he returned from his heartless traning, there was a new member of the organization, Diz. Koji had a funny feeling about Diz. He seemed familiar. Soon Koji began tracking down Sora, watching all his fights, and plotting his weaknesses. Also he spied on his brother, Riku.

One day, Sora came back to Hollow Bastion to check on the princesses of heart. Sora could tell something was different... something... dark. All of a sudden a gate appeared in the way of the tower where Melificent was fought against. The next thing Sora saw was a man in a black overcoat holding a spikey keyblade. Sora suddenly became defensive and wielded his key of power as well. "Ah... so you're the Sora who has been causing all this trouble... now I will stain you heart as you did to me!" Then the mysterious man swung his blade to Sora. Goofy jumped in the way with his shield and blocked the blow. "Oh well... I guess you and I will have to fight one-on-one another time. It seems you have company. Until then Sora." the hooded man backed up into the gates, and disappeared.

Soon after Koji returned to the organization, three more new members had joined up. Among them was his brother Riku, the second Joel (the kid with blonde hair), and The King. Koji was sure to stay out of sight when those three were around. After 3 weeks passed, Riku, too, started wearing a bandana over his eyes. Koji suddenly called upon all of the original Organtiztion members. "DAMN! ARE YOU GUYS LETTING JUST ANYONE JOIN THE UNKNOWN!! DAMMIT, IT MAKES ME FEEL LIKE I'M BEING REPLACED BECAUSE THEY CAN ALL USE KEYBLADES ACCEPT FOR THAT DIZ GUY! AND THAT THE ORGANIZATION IS A POPULAR CULT NOW!! NO MORE MEMBERS!!!" Koji said with complete rage.

"Well Koji why don't you just let them all know you exist, then get to know them?" calmly suggested Vixen. Suddenly Koji made his keyblade appear, tore off his blindfold with his left hand and pointed his mighty weapon towards Vixen's face with his right and his eyes looking demonic, as if he were the biggest, baddest heartless there ever was and said, "I shall never let my brother know I exist. Then he might completely let go of the darkness."

"SORA'S HERE!!! SORA'S HERE!!!", said a random Unknown member running through the gates.

"Lucky for you I have business to attend to.",said Koji. Then he dismissed all the Organization members and his mighty weapon as well. He put on his blind fold ready to fight. " Sora I'm coming after you whether like it or not.", Koji said to himself as he was walking out.

"Okay, Donald and Goofy... Lets go.", Sora said, eager to meet the unknown man that appeared to him before. Then, in a flash, a door came just like before and he stepped out. "Dark Restraint!", the man said. Then two Invisibles came out of the ground and threw Goofy and Donald in a different room to fight. "Now that I have you all by yourself, let's show you who I am...." Then the man took off his hood.

"RIKU!?!?!" Sora cried.

"No! but I am his blood though," said the mysterious man. "I am his brother Koji!" he said. Sora's dinky little kingdom key suddenly turned into an Ultima weopon Keyblade then Koji said, "What a pathetic weapon you have. You can only hold one!" Then Koji summoned his Haunted Soul keyblade then he summoned a heartless, and asked it to forge him a duplicate. Koji gave the heartless the key and then pulled two keychains out of his pocket, both in the shape of a flame, but one was blue and the other red. Then from them came two keyblades, called the Dual Dragons. Sora bore an expression that said he knew he was in big trouble. "Ah... I see you are surprised at my power. Do you see what happens when you understand the darkness like my father?" claimed Koji.

"Your father...? YOU MEAN...?!"

"THATS RIGHT!!! YOU KILLED MY FATHER AND NOW IT'S YOUR TURN!!!" Koji swung the blue blade in his left hand; Sora quickly defended. Then Koji dealt a major blow with the red one in his right hand ( one that Sora had obviously forgotten about).

Sora rolled off into a corner from the force of the impact. Then Goofy and Donald flew out of the doors to save Sora (the doors that he so convieniently rolled by). "Oops, I guess our little spar is over. See you later, Sora." Koji went into the door from where he came.

"Who was that?" asked Donald, "he looks like you friend Riku!"

"He's Riku's brother... and he's stronger than Riku and Ansem put together... we're in a bind," said Sora in agonizing pain.

"Gawrsh. I guess we have a major rival again, don't we?" said Goofy. " I guess so...," Sora nodded.

"Unsuccessful again, I see," said Marluxia.

"SHUT UP!!"' screamed Koji.

"Who was that?" the three new recruits asked.

"Uh oh. They know already." whispered Larxene.

"Know of what?" Riku asked sternly.

"Nothing."' Larxene said sharply, then continued to walk.

Up at the balcony where Marluxia and Koji were, Koji rapidly pulled out his Dual Dragons Keyblade and held them to Marluxia's throat. Marluxia looked like he didn't care, but Koji knew Marluxia didn't want to die. "You're lucky I have to train more of the heartless...," Koji said, retracting the blades from Marluxia's throat.
