Displaced Wielder
A Case of a Lost Key
Load Full StoryNext Chapter'Damn... who knew the convention would be filled to the brim?' These thoughts came from a 17-year old boy named Rumen who was walking around the video game convention and dressed as his favorite video game character of all times - Sora. Specifically, the KH3 version of Sora.
It was easy to get the outfit and finish his cosplay... Internet was a real treasure trove in buying the outfit and the rest of the items needed to pull off a decent Sora.
He managed to get the black v-neck t-shirt with white hemming and black shorts with gray pockets with the shorts being tight around the calves. Underneath the shirt, he equipped the longer black-hooded jacket with red hemming, gray pockets with white hemming and red flannel flaps that are held down by a series of yellow buttons. His shoes had a blackish-yellow with the ankle and tongue of the shoe folded down and a single black strap. His gray fingerless gloves came to a v on his hands and are just short of his elbow - they had red hemming and a yellow strap around the wrist along with a silver circle plate on the back of the hand. The signature crown necklace was around his neck. He managed to find a short brown-spiky wig to look more like Sora yet didn’t bother putting on tan-styled make-up. As for the glasses, they were still on his face.
There was one small hindrance – he wasn’t able to find any good replicas of the Kingdom Key, or at least not any that didn’t cost an arm and a leg. By the time that the convention started it was already too late but he didn’t think much about it.
'Well, at least the convention is gonna be worth it in the end!'The boy thought to himself with a small confident smile on his face.
He continued to explore the rest of the area. Right now, he wanted to collect some KH memorabilia and possibly a Kairi figurine - his favorite character of all time. Shame that he couldn't get a replica of the Kingdom Key... it would have completed the outfit. He put the matter from his mind. Sometimes things just don’t pan out.
As he looked around, he spotted something that surprised him. A perfect replica of the Kingdom Key! What a stroke of luck! He had to have it to complete his cosplay!
He rushed over to the vender and posed the main question in hand, "How much for the Kingdom Key?!"
"Oh, my! An actual Sora cosplayer - in his KH3 style... impressive." The vendor looked to be a young woman who was dressed as Namine. It was actually a very well done cosplay. If he didn’t know any better, he might have thought she was actually a 15 year old memory witch Nobody.
She spotted the same slightly longer blonde hair that draped across her left shoulder and blue eyes along with the white dress that ended at her thighs in an embroidered lace pattern and light blue sandals decorated with yellow flowers. From the looks of things, she resembled the Kingdom Hearts II version.
"Er, thank you, miss." He blushed in complete embarrassment. Kairi was his favorite character of all time, but Namine was pretty darn cute too.
The vendor as Namine giggled with a hint of amusement in her tone. "Not a problem... as for the Kingdom Key... hmmm, ordinarily I'd give it to you for 20... but I guess 10 dollars should suffice. A good bargain." The woman told him.
A replica of this quality could go for hundreds of dollars! This was a steal! "I'll take it!" He declared and took out his money before giving it to the Namine vendor.
The vendor nodded, took the money and gave him the Keyblade replica. "You won't be disappointed... I promise!"
As he took hold of the Keyblade, he didn't notice Namine's look turn into a predatory smile. All he noticed was suddenly he felt very sleepy… what’s going on exactly?
"Enjoy your trip. Oh... and by the way... I'm the real deal." Namine giggled evilly and soon he crumbled onto the floor as his vision began to blacken out.
‘The real deal...?’ Were his last thoughts as he blacked out and then faded away completely.
(Unknown time and place - ???)
In the darkness, a young man began to stir with a soft groan and he rubbed his shortened, brown-colored spiky hair.
"Oof, my head... I feel like that party got a little out of hand last night." He admitted yet froze when he realized something. "Hey, that's not my voice!"
His eyes snapped open and he looked down at himself - what he saw was... his own reflection. But not entirely himself. His spiky brown hair was real, his eyes were sea blue, his skin wasn't pale but tan... and his clothes fit him just like Sora's...
Then he realized - he wasn't cosplaying Sora! He was SORA!
"What the hell?!" He shouted in complete shock.
His voice was indeed Sora as he slammed his fist down and began cursing fate… only to remember something about his last precious moments of Earth and mainly that vendor that resembled Namine.
"What did that vendor mean 'the real deal'? The real Namine?" He wondered as he crossed his arms. "Why would she do this? I don’t understand…"
“Oh... plenty of reasons. Boredom, immortality... but mostly cause I love to mess with people." A familiar figure spoke behind him.
Sora whipped around to see none other than Namine standing there! She grinned amusingly and waved at him. "Hello, Rumen or should I say Rumi? Do you prefer your nickname? Anyway... enjoy your trip?" She asked.
Sora frowned a bit and crossed his arms. “Not likely… considering you kidnapped me from my world. Though what do you mean by ‘immortality’? How did you become immortal?" The former cosplayer now turned Keyblade Master wondered.
Namine lost her smile and sighed heavily. "Turns out a Nobody can never age... no matter how much you want to grow, you're stuck like this... for good.” She stopped for a moment and looked away.
Sora wondered what was going through her mind – from the tone in her voice, she sounded like she was going through some heavy depression. "I'm forevermore trapped in the body of a 15-year-old girl!" Namine cursed her fate. "I can't even go to a bar and get drunk or have sex without worrying about the cops!"
Sora couldn't help but wonder if he should be sympathetic or angry at her... maybe both. Either way...
"Why'd you turn me into Sora?" Rumi wondered.
"The Sora I know died a long, long time ago. I never could shake that crush I had on him, even though his heart belonged to Kairi. Maybe I'm hoping for a chance at another Sora?" Namine replied with a small hopeful look.
Rumi blushed heavily. "Ooh... Ummm... well, I'm flattered... But I never dated a girl though... Hey, if you're immortal... does that mean I'm one as well?" He wondered.
"Most likely. You're the first person I've tested this on, so I'm hoping it works as intended. I don't want to lose anyone else I care about to the ravages of time," Namine answered in an honest tone.
"Ah... so, I can't go back home, huh?" Rumi questioned – his face had a quick look of despair on it.
Namine confirmed his question with a nod. “I’m afraid not… I didn’t include that option unfortunately.” She admitted.
Sora R sighed and crossed his arms. “Damn… so, where am I going exactly?”
"The magical world of Equestria. It's a very bright world, so Heartless and whatnot aren’t likely to bother us," Namine answered.
Rumi nodded then realized something. “Wait a minute… is this… a Displaced situation? I’m a Displaced?” He wondered as Namine blushed in embarrassment.
“I… might have asked the Merchant for a bit of help, yeah.” Namine admitted.
Rumi nodded – it sounds like he didn’t have any choice in the matter… as much as he hated to admit it, he sympathized with Namine… despite kidnapping him and sending him here as the actual Sora, he couldn’t fault her. She was definitely a cutie. Hmm, he wondered…
“So, you want to date me?” Rumi wondered as Namine blushed heavily again but nodded.
"I'd like to get to know you better and see if there's a chance for a real romance, yes." Namine replied with a small smile.
Sora R nodded before he picked up her hand gently and kissed it – like a proper gentleman would. "I'll do my best to not disappoint, my lady."
Namine giggled and blushed as her heart fluttered, "I'll do my best to be a worthy girlfriend, good sir."
"I'm a massive pervert though... a quick warning." Rumi warned yet for some reason Namine didn’t find that offensive – if anything, she was aroused and amused.
"You don't get as old as I am without picking up some...exotic tastes." Namine wiggled her eyebrows and flirted with him at the same time.
Sora R blushed heavily but grinned a bit – seems like he was about to gain an ideal girlfriend after all. "A naughty Namine... hmm, seems like this will be quite the experience for both of us. Say, which Equestria are we going to?" This was on his mind ever since he heard from Namine that they’ll be heading to Equestria.
“Equestria in the Anthro-verse… quick warning, they’ll be quite the lusty people.” Namine warned with a playful grin.
Sora R grinned in amusement. "Interesting... though I think I’ll settle for just one girlfriend for now.”
Namine nodded with a shrug. “If that’s what you want. If you want to roll in the hay with more than one, you’re welcome to do so. We’ll be in Equestria for probably the next two or three thousand years.” She told him.
“I don’t mind that… I already have my future gal with me – a certain blonde witch at that.” Rumi replied with a grin – he knew who he was talking about.
Namine giggled in amusement. “You charmer… I can tell that we’ll be spending a lot of time together.”
“We will.” He paused before he looked around the darkness all around him. “So, what’s this? A Dive to the Heart thing?” Sora R posed a question.
Namine nodded. "That's correct, Sora. I gave you the Keyblade, but it still wants to know more about you. Any moment now and the glass floor will display who you really are…” She trailed off and allowed the glass floor to lit up.
The glass floor depicted Rumi in his Kingdom Hearts III attire in a sleeping position and holding Kingdom Key in his left hand. Around the platform were small circles with pictures of different people in them – one was Namine, another was Celestia… third was Luna and so on. Other smaller circles depicted images of the Heartless and Nobody symbols along with the Unversed and Dream Eater ones.
“Whoa, this is… just, wow.” Rumi’s tone was just at a loss for words while Namine watched him with an amused look.
“Your very own Dive to the Heart, Sora. I told you that the Keyblade would like to know more about you.” Namine spoke.
Sora R nodded but was still taking in the sights. "Also, no offense but why not use Rumen or Rumi as my name? I mean... I might be Sora but it doesn't mean my name shouldn't be gone for good." He told her.
"If that's what you want, I don't have a problem calling you Rumi," Namine replied – she didn’t really have a problem since she didn’t want to keep calling him Sora all the time as well. The real Sora was dead and gone, as much as she wish it were otherwise. Calling him Rumi or Rumen was important.
Rumi nodded as Namine smiled a bit before she looked away in embarrassment.
“Umm… Rumi, I know it’s a lot but I… N-no, never mind.” She shook her head after finishing her speech.
"What is it, Namine?" Rumi insisted to know what was bothering her.
Namine didn’t know if she should say it or keep silent – Actually, screw it. She already admitted that she had picked some exotic tastes over the years that she was immortal. Fuck it.
"It’s a weird request… but would you mind petting me?" Namine wondered with a shy tone.
"Sure. Anything for a cutie like you." Rumi said as he reached up and began petting Namine's head which made her most happy.
Namine purred happily and blushed. "This is making me happy already… and very horny. I wasn’t kidding when I said that I picked up some ‘exotic tastes’ over the years." She reminded her soon-to-be-boyfriend.
"I should probably finish the Dive to the Heart first, but as soon as we get a place in Equestria, we're definitely having our first time together." Rumi promised. Petting a cute girl was turning him on as well… he definitely wanted to have some fun with her.
Namine giggled light-heartedly. "You are such a flatterer…” She went silent for a bit before her lips twisted into a sad smile. “But... it will be a while though before we can do that. We’ll be stuck in here for a thousand years.”
Rumi froze. “WHAT!?” He blurted out.
He definitely wasn’t expecting that!
Author's Note
So, yay! New Displaced story starring my self-insert as Sora (Kingdom Hearts III)... now though I'm hoping that people enjoy what I wrote. It might be a little weird and confusing, yes... but I'm praying it's exactly enjoyable like the Displaced! Kairi or Displaced! Xion story - please give this a chance and don't dislike it!
And yes, normally in a Displaced story - it's a character who is displaced and no canon ones... but I just had to put the real Naminé in there. It's for a good friend of mine who would love to see this pairing kick off!
Special thanks to TheDimensionTraveler for helping me out with the beta reading!
As usual, I don't own Kingdom Hearts nor My Little Pony - they are owned by their respective companies! Enjoy reading!
