Chapter Text
Xehanort and his True Organization had been stopped. The worlds had been saved, and in the years that followed peace had become normal. No big threats to the worlds, but there was a problem. With the influx of Light.
Light and Darkness exist in balance, one cannot survive without the other, and thus a problem formed. Doubt followed, some believing that Master Xehanort was in the right, admiring him for taking in Darkness because no one else would, the Light was blinding to him, so he took refuge in the Darkness. Now a new group of Zealots had emerged, with Master Xehanort as their inspiration. The Children of Darkness.
Naturally a group had formed in response to this. They wielded Light into battle, trying to destroy the Children of Darkness. They were trained under Sora, Riku, and Kairi. The three who had stood against Xehanort. Joining them were Aqua, Terra, and Ventus. They would train a new group of young people to combat the Children of Darkness. The New Guardians of Light.
However, between these two extremes a third group rose up, challenging the ideals of both. They stood for Balance. A perfect balance between Light and Darkness. The other groups sought to crush each other, while this group sought to combine the ideals, recognizing that Light and Darkness couldn’t exist without each other. They sought to bring both groups to an understanding, if that could not be done, they would crush both. With no extremes on either side balance would be achieved. The Protectors of Balance.

“Violet Alexandria Hart. Get up.” A woman ordered, she had dark caramel eyes pointed in a glare, her short brown hair still wet from the shower, and pushed back. She was wearing a dark red robe, which contrasted with her paler skin tone. She stood over her adoptive daughter, who was currently sleeping on the couch.
“Hmm… Go away, no play now…” Violet mumbled in her sleep, turning away from the offending noise, her shorter blonde hair shifting slightly over her pale skin. The woman glared down at her, and smacked her stomach harder than necessary, but it got the teen up, with a scream.
“Toni, what was that?” A feminine voice called from down the hall, Toni blushed slightly, even though her wife couldn’t see her, her daughter glared up at her, eyes nearly the same color as Toni’s own.
“Nothing babe! Violet fell off the couch!” Toni called back, if Kelsi had known that she had smacked Violet, she would be in trouble, and she was trying to avoid that at all costs. Violet just glared up at her, to which Toni pointed a finger in her face. “Shut it you, you were supposed to be up five minutes ago, you’ve got school.” Toni said, Violet just shook her head.
“I thought I had one more day? I still have like a day, or something like that…” Violet murmured, rubbing her eyes with the back of her hands. Toni shook her head.
“Not according to your mothers schedule. So, quit trying to weasel out of it, get your ass up, and get ready. I’m leaving in ten minutes, if you aren’t at the door, your ass is walking.” Toni said before she walked away, Kelsi poked her head out of the doorway, and gave her wife a look.
“You know that wont cut it Love.” The blonde said, Toni shook her head, as Kelsi’s blue eyes slip past her and to Violet. “Don’t worry, your mom will wait as long as it takes, but you really should try to get ready as fast as possible, okay honey?” Kelsi asked, Violet smiled at her mother, and gave her a thumbs up.
“For sure. I’ll get right on it!” Violet announced, as she bounded off the couch, and to her room, Kelsi frowned as he daughter ran past her.
“No running!” Kelsi announced, and Violet came to a screeching halt, obeying the order as Kelsi went back to her bathroom to finish up. Toni glared at her, as she was getting dressed.
“You’re too lenient with her you know.” Toni said, as she pulled jeans on, Kelsi just rolled her eyes as she returned to doing her makeup.
“You’re too strict.” Kelsi countered, before she put on lipstick, Toni pulled a black shirt on. Toni just came up behind her and looked at her as she finished with her makeup.
“I don’t see how you can wear that shit everyday.” Toni said, Kelsi just shook her head, looking at Toni in the mirror.
“Put a dollar in the jar.” Kelsi said, Toni frowned.
“Aw come on!”
“Nope. You know our deal, you curse, it goes towards Violet’s allowance. In fact, you said ass twice earlier, so that’s another dollar.” Kelsi said, Toni sighed, and left the bathroom to do Kelsi’s bidding. Violet smiled as she saw Toni put the money in the jar. The young blonde had gotten ready for school in record time. Dressed in jeans, and a white long-sleeved shirt, with a black sleeve-less hoodie.
“Hair’s still wet mom.” Violet quipped, Toni glared at her, and flicked her forehead.
“I know that squirt. You ready now?” Toni asked, Violet nodded, and Toni smiled at her. “Awesome. Hey, Kelsi! I’m leaving, okay babe?” Toni announced, Violet grabbed her bag, and slung it over her shoulders.
“Okay, have fun, and stay out of trouble! Violet that goes for you too!”
“Bye mother! Love you!” Violet called as she and Toni left the house. Toni shut the door, and pulled out her keys, unlocking the car with the press of a button. Violet looked around fondly, Virtuoso City was a beautiful place.
“Get in Kid.” Toni said, Violet smiled at her, and got in the passenger side. Toni got in the drivers side, and started the car up. She drove off towards the school. Apex High. Toni’s eyes drifted over to Violet, whose eyes had drifted out the window. “You remember everything I taught you? About strength?” Toni asked, Violet looked back, and pulled a Key-Chain from her pocket, a Chain with a Thalassa Shell Wayfinder on the end. Someone had given it to her on her seventeenth birthday.
“Of course mom. But, you know mother says that Magic is superior to strength.” Violet reminded Toni, who shook her head.
“She doesn’t know what she’s talking about Violet. Just… Be careful okay, and if anyone, guy or girl grabs your ass, kill em.” Toni said, Violet smiled as they pulled up to the school. It was her first day at this school specifically, it was for people who were training to be warriors, of Light, Darkness, or Balance, whether they be Key-Wielders or not, all were welcome.
Violet smiled and pocketed her Keychain, and kissed her mom on the cheek before hopping out of the car, smiling at all the people she saw. She was ready for the first day of school, and whatever surprises awaited her. She didn’t know that this would be the day her life changed forever.
