Sun and Moon! I. and VII. Xemnas and Saïx
Luna had raised the moon after the bearers of the elements of harmony had left and none of the organization had appeared. Celestia and Luna thought that they had failed when a guard ran... no flew into the throne room through a window! But that's not what had surprised them what surprised them was the fact that the guard was not a Pegasus, he was not even a unicorn. No the guard that flew through the window was an earth pony. Then before they could figure out what was going on twenty guards holding down one pony wearing a black cloak with a hood walked into the room. Behind that pony and those guard's was Shining Armor captain of the guard and his wife Princess Mi Amore Cadenza... {Better known to the citizens of the Crystal Empire and Equestria as Princess Cadence} who were escorting yet another hooded pony. What surprised Celestia and Luna even more were the looks plastered on their faces. Their faces were that of pure terror.
"WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS WHO DARES HARM THE CITIZENS OF EQUESTRIA AND THEN HAS THE GALL TO ENTER OUR THRONE ROOM WEARING HOODED ROBES!?! " As surprising as this will sound, it was not Luna who said this, but rather Celestia.
The hooded pony with twenty guards around him simply raised a hoof and said. "Your guards are not as good at fighting as one would think I took down 30 single handedly." The other one ran from Shining Armor and Cadence and went over to his companion and swiftly delivered a blow to the side of his head to which he responded "Ouch! What was that for!?"
The other pony simply said "That is no way to speak to a princess let alone ones who have given you a second chance." He then turned to Celestia and Luna. "I am sorry for my underling’s behavior. He was simply curious about the strength of this body as well as if he retained his powers which I seems he and I both have. He attacked the guard after they threatened to arrest him after a unicorn said and I quote ""What a horrid taste in clothing! You must be a peasant and you must have stolen it as well for I do not believe a peasant could afford such clothing!"" to which my underling responded by saying- He was cut off.
"I can break every bone in your body with one swift motion don't make me angry!" the other stallion spoke in a calm tone before he was hit on the head again.
The first stallion resumed speaking. "As for why we are still wearing these robes we simply have yet to take them off."
What they all saw next surprised them even the princesses. The two pony’s cloaks vanished revealing the bodies of the ponies who wore them. The one who had been calmly talking to the princesses and explaining the situation to them was a chestnut colored stallion, about the size of Celestia, he had a white mane similar to the color of Celestia's coat, and his cutie mark was that of two blades with silver handles while the blades themselves looked like they were made of red light crossing above the roman number I. The other was a navy blue stallion, with a navy blue mane, the size of Luna, the most distinctive thing about him was his face or rather what was on his face. He had a scar in the shape of an X on his muzzle in between his eyes, which were a brilliant turquoise in color. His cutie mark was the roman number VII. Depicted above the number was a sword used by griffins known as a claymore it has a long gold handle connected to the silver midsection of the sword with a blue half circle on top of a gold stylized cross.
The most surprising thing about the two ponies who stood and bowed before the princesses was that they were alicorns. "Who are you?" was the question that broke the silence to which the two ponies just smiled the chestnut colored stallion spoke first.
"I am Xemnas the Superior of the In-between. Rank I. of Organization XIII." Then the blue stallion spoke.
"I am Saix the Lunar Diviner. Rank VII. of Organization XIII"
They shared a look, smiled, returned their gaze to the princesses, walked towards them, bowed, kissed their hooves {Xemnas kissed Celestia's while Saïx kissed Luna's}, and said at the same time "It is a pleasure to meet the rulers of this nation and our saviors. Your majesties." At this point all the guards, Shining Armor, Cadence, and the princesses were all speechless.
~Celestia's mind~ "I thought the spell would turn them into ponies yes, but I did not know it would turn them or at least some of them into alicorns like us... on the other hoof I think Luna has a crush on Saïx... and Xemnas is quite handsome as well. Am I blushing? I feel like I am blushing"
~Luna's mind~ "I know I am blushing but he's cute and he's kissing my hoof. He's. Kissing. My. Hoof. Ohmygoshhe'skissingmyhoof! *insert mental fan girl squeal here* I think that I am in love."
~Xemnas’ mind~ "I feel things I have not felt in a long time happiness sadness and dare I say love? Yes this is love and is thanks to this beautiful mare."
~Saïx’s mind~ "The one who controls the moon. Beautiful, even though she is a pony she is beautiful, then again I am a pony now too, so is it alright to love her in more ways than one? I believe it is and I do believe that I... Am in love."
~return to the throne room and everypony’s point of view~ after a few minutes of blushing Celestia finally spoke again. "Where are the other members of your organization? I thought there were thirteen?"
At this the two colts went wide eyed and believing that as the leader it was his responsibility to answer Xemnas said. "There are thirteen of us yes but as for where they are and what they have become I do not know."

New colt in town. XIII Roxas meets the CMC!
Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo were trotting down the path to their tree house when a loud crash resounded throughout the area. Glancing at one another before running towards their club-house to see if it had fallen down. "Ah' don' like what ah' just heard girls!" Said Applebloom receiving a nod from the other crusaders. When they reached their club house they saw it had not fallen out of the tree it was sitting in, but rather something had crashed into the tree house at a 45 degree angle.
The door swung open and a figure in a black cloak stepped out. "Ow my... Everything!" The three looked at the colt whom they could tell was a male by the sound of his voice. Dripping from the wooden platform on which he and the tree house were standing was a red liquid that, due to personal experiences, Scootaloo recognized immediately.
Her eyes wide, she shouted. "G-girls! He's hurt!" With that she ran to the stranger’s aid followed closely by Applebloom, and Sweetie Belle, who was muttering how, 'this is not a good idea.' "Are you OK!?" To answer her question the colt fell down flat on his face. His cloak started to disappear revealing his golden blond tail and dark yellow flank. His cutie mark was a black blade shaped like a key crossed over a silver blade that was shaped like a key, behind the keys was the Roman numeral XIII.
"What’s that supposed ta mean? Is 'e a key maker or something?"
As more of the cloak disappeared they saw that he had both wings and a horn. He was a alicorn.
"Um girls... maybe we should take him to see Twilight? I mean she knows the most about alicorns in town due to being the princess's student and all."
Scootaloo quickly nodded. "Help me get him in the wagon." Once they had gotten him in the wagon they took off to the library. When they reached it Scootaloo wasted no time in bashing the door down with her scooter. "Twilight we got an emergency!"
Twilight walked out of the kitchen. "Did you brew a love poison again- Oh my! What happened to him!?" They were about to respond when the colt groaned and got up. He looked around until he saw Twilight and the CMC.
"Great I have to deal with heartless even after I fade from existence, oh well!" The blades that were emblazoned on his flank appeared before him and he began to levitate them with his magic.
Meanwhile back in Canterlot.
Celestia screamed. "What do you mean you don't know where they are!? If they got the wrong idea about Equestria and thought that ponies were all heartless. They would kill them only to realize they are not heartless and that they have committed murder."
Xemnas sighed. "I know that's why-" He quickly looked out the window. "Number XIII is down there."
Celestia looked out window and her horn as well as her sisters began to glow. "Hold on."
In the Library.
Roxas was about to charge and eliminate the ponies with his keyblades. "Roxas! Calm yourself!"
Princess Celestia and Luna were standing their along with Saix and Xemnas.
"Do you wish to kill the student of the one who brought us here from the void?"
Roxas looked at Xemnas then to the other ponies. He recognized Saix due to his scar. "So they're not heartless?" He turned to the CMC and Twilight. "Sorry I attacked like that! I’m number XIII Roxas. The Key of Destiny. Nice to meet you." He stuck out a hoof.
Twilight blinked. "Princess... WHAT'S GOING ON!?"

As 13 cloaked beings floated through the nothingness of the void, wallowing in their sorrow, their demise, two beings took pity on them. These are the members of organization XIII and this is where our story begins. Number XII. Saix was one of the last of the organization to be defeated. He as well as the rest just wanted his heart back. Number XIII. Axel was getting angry his attitude was as the fire he controlled calm and warming one moment, wild and destructive the next. "Why the hell are we just floating here!? We should be looking for a way out of this place!!!"
"Calm yourself Axle!" Axle obeyed the command for it came from the leader of the organization Number I Xemnas. "We wait no longer my nobodies today we w-" Xemnas was cut off by a bright flash of light in which two orbs appeared one pure as the driven snow the other as dark as night. The orbs seemed to be speaking. The white orb spoke first.
From their throne room in canterlot the princesses of equestria and the elements of harmony watched the organization in the void. Even though they knew what they had done in the past. Releasing the heartless so that they would be destroyed, risking others lives, basically committing murder. Celestia and Luna thought they deserved another chance.
back in the void
"We are from another world known as Equestria and would like to offer you another chance at life. It is up to you to decide but be aware this may now be the only way to get back your hearts."
Then there was silence... until Xemnas spoke up. "We hear your offer and accept it with open arms!" this received a nod yes from the other members of the organization.
Then the blue orb spoke "Be warned you will not keep these bodies you will be transformed into the most common sentient beings that inhabit equestria. Do you still accept on these terms?"
All the members of the organization spoke at the same time. "Yes! We do!"
Then the white orb spoke again. "Very well my little ponies."
Then at the same time all the members at the organization said one word. "what?"
