Chapter 8: Nobody's Moonlight

Previous Chapter Next Chapter

“So...many...kisses…” I pant, not believing how many times these girls could kiss. So just to recap after me and Luna stepped into the room and then dragged to bed we were all into a kissing frenzy, all of our clothes on the discarded just so we could all kiss even more. If you’ve ever heard of ‘showered with kisses’ then I would have been in waterfall of kisses with all this. “I...love...you all.” I chuckle, a goofy smile plastered on my face after all that.

I got out of bed and into the shower… lipstick all over your body is a pain to wash off… After that I dot dressed and saw Spike, Sweetie, and Time in the living room. “You look like a tornado hit you.” Time said.

“You could say that.” I say, my smile never leaving my face after what happened. “So how are you three today?”

“I’m meeting up with Rainbow today.” Spike said.

“I’m gonna draw.” Sweetie said.

“I am gonna try and figure out more of my visions.” Time said.

“Sounds good…” I nod. “Hey Spike...mind if I try something real quick?” I ask, summoning my Duskblade.

“What?” He asked.

“I just...want to see something.” I say while grabbing the blade part and holding out the guard towards Spike. “I believe this is a ‘vow’ to gain a Keyblade….so grab the handle if you would.” I say to Spike, hoping this’ll work. He held the handle and I began to try and remember the words. "In your hand, take this Key... So long as you have the makings, then through this simple act of taking, its wielder you shall one day be... And you will find me, friend—no ocean will contain you then... No more borders around, or below, or above, so long as you champion the ones you love."

With that, Spike let go of the handle. “That’s it?”

“If memory serves then yes. I don’t know how long it’ll take but soon you will be able to summon a Keyblade that’s just for you.” I explain.

“Core did something very different than that…” Time muttered.

“I am not a Master, and I don’t know if I could just wave my hand and give people Keyblades, but for right now that’s all I got. I don’t want to do what Core does cause…”

“It’s Inhuman?” Time Bell offered.

“Exactly.” I nod.

“Well I do feel a power in Spike that wasn’t there before so I guess we just gotta wait for it to appear.”

“If that’s all then I’m off.” Spike said, getting up and exiting the library/house.

“Alright.” I nod. “Let’s hope I can do that with the other girls…” I say. “At least...when they wake up.”

“I’m sure it will be soonish.” A voice spoke from nowhere.

“Why hello there disembodied voice. How can I help you today?” I ask, looking around for the being I knew was around.

“Dak!” A large snake/chimera like creature appeared in front of me. “I was hoping to spook you… you really are an odd one.”

“Hey Discord.” Time said.

“Hello Time Bell.”

“Oh I’m the odd one, but you can go around looking like that.” I frown, seeing Discord and still finding even his features odd. “Anyways Discord, what do you want? Cause I doubt you want a Keyblade.”

“Keep the things… after the war I never really want to see one again.”

“Another one from the war huh?” I ask.

“Yes, I fought along side Sun and Moon butts parents. When I saw you had one is the news on TV I did get flashbacks… besides the point, I figured I should tell you a few things about my least favorite topics right under sanity and ethics.”

“Like how bad cheese and chocolate milk go together?” I ask, just a random thing crossing my mind at this point.

“That is delicious and irrelevant to my point. I’m here to see how much you know about the Keyblade war.”

“I know it was a giant massacre, there’s a giant Graveyard filled with Keyblades that are rusting over, and a few guesses on what happened after the war.” I say.

“I’ll tell you this much. There were two types of survivors. Those like me and the royal sisters parents, who fled the battle, and those who stayed… and committed near genocide… But that aside, how many Keyblade wielders do you think fought in the war?”

“In the millions? Or billions?”

“Literally ALL of them… you see, the impact the war had on the multiverse, quite frankly tore holes between the dimensions, meaning every Keyblade war in each reflection got mixed together and became one massive battleground. This is partly why some Keyblades if not most you see in the graveyard are more than just one.”

“Yet I have a feeling there were groups that didn’t take part in the war at all...because there’s always those groups that just run away…”

“There was one group that didn’t participate at all, and fled to the outer worlds, to keep the light alive… that war should have ended everything, but if it wasn’t for that group, we wouldn’t be here. But my point is, the tears in reality are not healed completely in the Graveyard.”

“That doesn’t sound good…” I frown.

“This means that the genocidal survivors of the Keyblade war that still know this, can hop from one reflection to another with ease if they know where to ‘slice’.”

“Damn…” I frown. “But um...question, who were your master and Luna’s parents master? Cause if you three were Keyblade wielders then you must have had a master…” I say, not knowing anything that happened before the Keyblade war.

“Back then things were very different, but I guess you can say my master was Foreteller Gula. There used to be five unions all Keyblade wielders had to choose one to be in, and there was no going back to go to another. The royal butts parents belonged under Foreteller Ira’s union. None of us made it to the Master title… the war hit first.”

“Okay then….but would it be weird if I said a version of you is...a Keyblade?” I ask honestly, knowing I heard Discord from Zeke.

“You think I didn’t sense that version of me? I could tell, he was much, much, younger than me though, so that reflection of me must have been born after the war in his universe.”

“This reflection crap is very confusing…” I grumble, rubbing my head gently. “Multiverse theory is a bitch.”

“From what I was told, there was only one universe, one reality, back when the worlds were one… the multiverse was a result of not only the world breaking up into the stars we know today, but the reality around the world breaking as well.”

“Sweet lord…” I mutter. “But...I know you’re retired and all but...I have a feeling you’re time of being ‘retired’ is coming to a close Discord...I don’t know when and I don’t know if you’ll ever decide to wield a keyblade again but…”

“Like those two, I’m never touching the things again. I may be a chaos spirit, but what I saw that day was not chaos, that was murder. I do know someone who might be able to help though…”

“Please, cause I have a feeling I’m gonna need all the help I can get...and hopefully it’s a teacher cause I’m not sure Luna could teach me, my four other girlfriends sooner or later and Spike…”

“His name is Luxu… and he’s one of the Foretellers… well, sorta. He had a much different role during the war.”

“Why do I have a feeling it involves some sort of chest or box?” I frown. “Cause if the other Foretellers were training new Keybladers he probably had a job to….maybe hide something.”

“Yeah, his master’s last invention ever before he disappeared. Only he know what’s in it, but getting to Luxu is… tricky.”

“How tricky?” I ask with a frown. “Do I have to go through three magical volcanoes and Nothingness just to get to him?”

“... We’ll be in Core’s world…”

“Fuck that then.” I say while throwing my hands into the air. “I’d rather not walk straight into enemy lines just to find him.”

“Core has bases in every dark realm reflection, but Luxu is on the one place even he fears in that place.”

“Void?” I ask.

“No, a place called Moonlight… the only light in the realm of Darkness.”

“Sounds fun. Too bad that I’ll never be able to get there.” I frown. “I’m still too weak sadly.”

“So are the heartless that get near the place. Core doesn’t even go near the place, he’ll never see us and I’m sure Luxu will be able to help.”

“Hopefully…” I sigh out. “But getting to Moonlight won’t be as simple as opening a door and walking through it to immediately be there.” I frown, knowing that getting to a place so special as that it’ll be a nightmare just to get close.

“I can oped a DTD just a few miles from it, though when we get out the Pureblood Heartless will start appearing.”

“Well let’s hope I’m fast enough.” I say before tossing up my keyblade and my glider appeared.

Discord held out his hand, and opened a DTD. “No need for that in a DTD, besides, that cloak of yours will be enough.”

“I’m coming too.” Time said. “If Ben’s too scared of the dark then someone’s gotta watch his back.”

“I’m not scared of the dark.” I frown. “There’s a difference between being scared of the Dark, and being scared of what lurks in it. Major difference.” I say.

“That’s a scared child's logic Ben.” She deadpanned, getting and and standing next to me. “Why do you think people are afraid of the dark? Because of what lives in it.”

“Whatever you say.” I say before disbanding my keyblade glider and grabbing my Duskblade. “Well, onwards to Moonlight.”

We entered the DTD, and when we came out we were on a trail of sorts. “Moonlight is three miles ahead.” Discord said. “We best move fast.”

“Right then.” I say before heading off to Moonlight quickly. As we made it to the two and a half mile mark till our location, a hoard of Neoshadows appeared. “Of course this happened.” I groan before summoning Xigbar’s Gun Arrow’s and pointing them towards the Neoshadows, firing at them and trying to clear a way through the hoard.

The arrows looked like they did nothing, the Neoshadows taking the shots like bullet sponges. “Genius.” Time said, running up and punching one of them right in the jaw as it vanished in a puff of darkness. “Only Keyblades can work in the Realm of Darkness.”

“This is literally my first time here so shush.” I say before disbanding my gun arrows and summoning my Duskblade and Vexin’s shield as I cleaved my way through the Neoshadows.

Discord was casting defensive and healing spells on the two of us. He shrunk himself to about the size of Mushu from Mulan and was riding in my hood. “Just keep running. If a Guardian Darkside finds us we are screwed.”

“I hate everything…” I grumble while continuing to cut my way through the Neoshadows, the hoard not looking any smaller as me, Discord and Time kept getting closer to Moonlight.

Then, in front of us, a swarm of Shadow heartless, looking and acting like a living tornado of darkness popped in front of us. “Demon Swarm. These things are smart Ben.” Time said.

“Oh what the fuck…” I groan. “So how do I kill that thing? Or is it obvious with the giant glowing orb that’s trying not to say ‘I’m a weak point’?”

“Good luck getting to it. We gotta avoid this thing, or else we may-” Something slashed the Demon Swarm. “What the?!”

When the Demon Swarm fell, who was behind it surprised me. Master Aqua. “Come on!” She shouted, running ahead.

“What’s Aqua doing here?” I mutter to myself, but shrugging it off as I dashed towards Aqua.

We followed her as she hacked whole hordes of heartless in just a few swings. No doubting she was strong. We made it to what looked like a building, glowing white like the inside of castle oblivion. When we entered… I felt surprisingly calm. “You all alright?” Aqua asked.

“Uh...yes…” I say with a slow nod, looking around the place. “But...this is Moonlight?”

“Yes.” She replied. “It was built here by my friend Luxu, a hiding place that does stand out, but repels the Heartless.”

“Time? Discord?” I ask, hoping the two were still with me here.

“Behind you.” Time said.

“Here.” Discord said, jumping out of my hood and returning to full size. “How did you get here?” Discord asked Aqua.

“I was saving a friend from falling into darkness. He made it out, but I ended up falling in his place.” Aqua said, looking sad. “Has any large amount of time passed in the Realm of Light?”

“More than you can imagine.” I sigh out. “You’ve missed a lot Master Aqua, but I’m sure you’ll be able to go back to the Realm of Light and see for yourself.”

“I hope. Did you three escape from Core’s lab?”

“I did.” Time said. “But that was a year ago and I made it back to the realm of light.”

“Why come back?”

“Look out for this idiot.” Time pointed a thumb at me.

“Hey!” I snap at Time. “You didn’t have to come along Time, that was your own decision. But no, I am from the Realm of Light, we came here to meet Luxu...I didn’t expect to see you here Master.” I say, wanting to be respectful to Aqua as a Master.

“I was wandering the realm of darkness when that Core found me. Such a powerful darkness, even among the never ending darkness here, I could feel it from him the most. I ran to escape him, and that’s when I found this place and met Luxu. He was glad to have the company. Come on, he’s in the other room.” Aqua led us down a narrow hall until we came across a door with a large blue eye painted on it. She knocked on it. “Luxu, we have company.”

“Send them in.” A rather young voice, maybe a year or so older than me, spoke. We entered, and we saw a guy in a black organization XIII cloak sitting on a chair next to a fireplace. “Now how did you three get here? Wait, Discord?” He got up and walked up to Discord.

“Long time no see friend.” Discord said, shaking Luxu’s hand.

“Hello.” I say nervously, making sure my crown was in it’s right spot given that I’m talking to someone very important, even more important than Aqua here.

“Oh, hey. Who are you?” Luxu asked.

“The names Ben.” I say to the young man. “And I’m...a special kind of Keyblader…” I say while scratching the back of my head nervously, not feeling right with pointing out I’m ‘special’ to two masters that are way beyond my own set of skills.

“I see, your heart is partly dead.” He said nonchalantly

“Well it’s coming back to life with the amount of joy I’m in all the time.” I say with a smile. “But...still a partly dead heart isn’t good...right?”

“What starts a heart dying is lack of emotions. You look like you're getting better, but I can tell you still hang on to the anger and grudges from your past. You are still rude to others, and generally it’s because they say something rude to you. Word of advice, let that crap go, and you’ll thank me later.”

“Trying to, but it’ll come to me. Having five girlfriends can help with trying to get a heart back ya know?” I chuckle.

“It’s not just the ones you care about that you need to respect and care about, it’s the ones you hate that you gotta care about also.”

“That is true...I showed one of my enemies care…” I say. “I hope she’s alright though.”

“Oh, so then that’s what that was.”

“There was a woman, Yellow as she was called, and I showed her sympathy. She was probably going to say thank you but...for some reason I doubt the ‘she’s a reflection of Core’...unless reflections can be gender bent then she’s probably someone else entirely.” I say, having thought about that whole situation a tad too much in my free time.

“Then that’s what happened at their lab. Ha, Core must be pissed.”

“What happened?” I ask curiously and worriedly. “Did something bad happen?”

“Some time ago, one of Core’s labs exploded in a burst of light, I’m talking atomic bomb bright. After it all settled, they were chasing one of the Core reflections and she escaped through a DTL. One of those this deep in the darkness, she must have escaped with a fragment of the Grandfather Light. I could see her heart from where I was… it was pure light, which it was not before the explosion.”

“That is very strange….but this ‘Grandfather Light’...does it have something to do with Kingdom Hearts?” I ask.

“Kid, it made Kingdom Hearts! It made everything! It’s like our god in a sense, but it largely died off save for the pieced Kingdom Hearts made into the Keyblades. If they have a fragment of it, then it must have come from a powerful Keyblade to make an explosion that large and purify a heart that dark.”

“Well here’s the thing...Yellow explained to me that Core, and all his followers that had hearts, literally ripped their hearts out and shoved pure darkness into themselves, forging their hearts into Keyblades. They are literally Nobodies with darkness for hearts...and they call themselves Demons because of that.” I say.

“I know. The Grandfather Light undid all of that to that female Core! That shit can do literally anything! It’s why they fear it above anything and everything.”

“Listen, I’ve barely been in this for barely two weeks, and I barely know anything.” I say while rubbing my head. “Jeez this is a lot to take in…” I sigh out. “So anything else I need to know right now that I’ll need to know?”

“Just one.” Luxu leaned in close. “So who’s the cutie with the gears stuck in her?”

“This is Time Bell.” I say while patting her head. “She is…” I start, trying to find the right words. “A Keyblade…”

“I was one of Core’s experiments.” She said.

Luxu took one of her hands and kissed it, making Time actually blush. “You are still a very pretty lady.” He added, making her face turn even redder.

I smiled at the scene. “She needs someone special in her life.” I say with a nod. “Someone that she can trust...and looks like you could be one of those people Luxu.” I chuckle, seeing Time’s beat red face just looking so precious here.

“I-I-I-I-” Time stuttered.

“Anything you need melady?” Luxu asked Time.

She gulped. “B- Ben needs someone to teach him and the others a-a-about Keyblades…” She managed to say.

“She also wants a date…” I joke with a cheeky smile. “But yes, she is correct...me and many others need to learn so we can stand a chance against Core and whatever crap he’ll throw at us next.” I explain in a more serious tone.

“Alright.” Luxu said. “Been wanting to get the heck out of here anyway. So Aqua, you coming?”

“Wait, you had a way out of this darkness this whole time?” Aqua asked, disbelief across her face.

“It would be weird if he didn’t.” I shrug. “I mean, he looks like someone who’s traveled too long of a distance. So it would be weird if he didn’t have certain ways out of certain places.”

“Yeah Aqua, you think I entered this place without a means of exiting?” Luxu said. “I never said anything cause you never asked.” Luxu summoned the Gazing Eye, and shot a beam of light at the fireplace. It glowed a bright white, and turned into a… steering wheel? “This whole building is a gummi ship I built specially to fly in and out of the realm of darkness… I just wanna do one thing first.” He walked into a DTD, then immediately ran back out. “Now we can GTFO.” He said as massive explosions were heard in the distance.

“How do you even know what the hell that means?” I ask with a frown, slightly confused here on how he knows some lingo from Earth.

“My grandpa told me about it. He visits when Aqua is out sometimes.”

“You have an grandpa?” I ask with a raised eyebrow.

“Yeah, my dad’s dad? Duh. His name’s God.” Luxu grabbed the steering wheel, and the whole building began to move. “My dad went by Master of Masters.”

“Wait WHAT!?!” I shout in disbelief. “You mean to tell me you're the grandson of God?” I ask.

“Yeah, why? He sounds important to you?”

“Well…” I start, taking a deep breath. “Um...I’m not sure if God would like this but technically where I come from...I’m apart of his imagination.” I say sheepishly.

Luxu looked at me. “Oh… OH! So that crazy old man finally pulled it off! Ha!”

“Yes yes the power of Imagination can make you do literally anything and everything.” I say with a frown. “I don’t understand and I don’t think I’ll ever understand how he did...that.”

“No, you won’t.” Luxu deadpanned. “Now… what world are you living on?”

“Equestria.” Discord said.

“Ah, been there. Well then, off we go!”


“That was a better landing than expected.” Luxu said. The whole ship was upside down and we crashed just behind Twilight's library.

“YOU ALMOST DESTROYED MY HOUSE!!” I shout at him, holding Xigbar’s gun arrows and thankfully learning how to defy gravity in the moments we were ‘flying’.

“But I didn’t! Now then… what’s going on with the white lady with the rainbow hair outside?” Luxu asked as we saw Celestia standing outside the ship on a monitor that appeared when the ship took off.

“Oh for christ sakes.” I grumble. “Luxu you suck at driving just so you know.” I frown.

“Never claimed to know how to drive this thing.” He stated, getting back up.

“Is everyone else alright?” I ask, hoping Time, Aqua and Discord are fine.

“I’m good.” Aqua said. “Saw my life flash before my eyes… I think I might just take a short vacation, because it was all just fighting…”

“Never been better.” Discord said.

“Been better.” Time muttered.

“Well thankfully Aqua you can have that vacation.” I say honestly. “Now how the hell are we going to get out of this house that’s upside down?” I ask with a frown. “This place is probably a wreck after your crash landing.”

“Easy.” Luxu punched a person sized hole in the nearest wall. “Like that.”

“I didn’t mean destroying part of your ship but whatever.” I say before walking outside.

“Relax, I can repair and build another one.”

When we got outside, Celestia was there with a concerned look. “Ben? What the heck is this? And who are they?”

“Okay so that is a Gummi Ship called ‘Moonlight’. The two people inside are Keyblade masters, the female with blue hair is called Aqua, and the man in the black coat is Luxu. And why this happened is because Luxu sucks balls and driving.” I say with a shrug. “Albeit I have a feeling I wouldn’t have done better cause I don’t know how to drive a gummi ship...or drive to begin with.” I say, going right side up and stepping down on solid ground.

“I never claimed to know how to drive!” Luxu yelled as he jumped out of the ship and landed face first on the ground. “Dirt… I actually missed dirt…”

“Son of the Master of Masters….I can probably see that.” I say, thinking that the Master of Masters would probably be a kind guy who wasn’t like a ‘all seriousness’ kind of man. “Anyways Luxu, this is Celestia, princess of the sun and very concerned alicorn at having your ship crash land behind her student, and my girlfriends, house.”

Luxu looked up at her. “Sup?” He dropped his head back onto the ground.

“He’s rather… eccentric…” Celestia said.

“And sadly he’s going to be one of my masters...and the others I’m planning on giving keyblades to.” I say with a shrug. “But thankfully Aqua is the more...calm and collected then ‘face in dirt’ over here.”

“I was alone in the realm of darkness for sixty years realm of light time and about a month realm of darkness time… I’m kinda crazy alright?” Luxu said as he got up. “Though I am kinda acting more like my father before the war…”

“I can imagine.” I say with a nod. “Anyways...I suppose I should meet you to the students you and Aqua are going to have...after Aqua spends some time relaxing and taking a break from fighting.”

“Sure, but quick question?”

“What be that quick question?” I ask curiously.

“Where the fuck is the nearest restaurant? I and Aqua have been living off of light energy for a long ass time. I wanna taste food damn it.”

“Oh Pinkie~.” I call out in a little sing song tone. “People need food and a party stat!”


No sooner that I called out to her, she dragged us all inside where everything was already decorated with food everywhere. To which Celestia and Luxu got into a drinking and eating contest. Aqua ate about two whole cakes, and it was a near repeat of my part. Difference being that I woke up on the couch with everyone passed out around me. Luxu was missing, and so was Time. I know I saw them pass out yesterday?

“God my head…” I mutter while putting a hand on my head. “Well...might as well see where Luxu and Time are…” I mutter while getting up and gently moving myself carefully to the basement, thinking I would find the two downstairs in Time’s room.

When I got there, I saw Time cuddled up against Luxu on her bed… both had clothes on, thankfully, and I just carefully closed the door. “Better not ruin that moment.” I mumble to myself with a warm smile. “Man last night was fun.”

As I made my way back upstairs I noticed I didn’t see Celestia either. I looked up… just in time for her body to fall on me. “Hu! What?” She said as she woke back up. “Did I sleep defying gravity again? Why do I do that when I’m drunk?”

“Mmmm” I hum, my face full of Celestia’s boobs and thinking that this was nice.

She noticed where I was and jumped off me. “Oh! Sorry Ben. That was unintentional.”

“I didn’t complain about a face full of boobs.” I say with a smile, my face red from having boobs in my face. “But sorry Celestia, I didn’t see you up there...and it’s alright.” I say while getting up.

“Well consider yourself lucky Ben. You’re officially the first man to ever feel my breasts.”

“And boy were they just as heavenly as Luna’s.” I say with a goofy smile.

She laughed. “Well that was a one time thing alright? I should get back to Canterlot. Thanks to my needy girlfriend and now with parties like these I’m behind on paperwork. Oh, when Luna wakes up tell her expect her half of the paperwork in the mail, alright?”

“Alright, I’ll tell her.” I say with a nod. “But have a nice day Celestia.” I say with a smile and a quick hug.

“Thanks Ben. You act like I always imagined a brother-in-law or a little brother would.” She teleported away, leaving me in a room full of hungover mares.

“Welp...better get the day started.” I say while starting to wake up all the mares and Aqua. “Come on, time to get up, we got a lot of work to do today.” I say.
