Do I get in trouble for this? I mean, I would've submitted it all at once, but it was too long. I even left out a few chapters. Holy cow! I might have to do half-chapters. Or just make a link to my website. But I don't have a website...
Chapter 2
The man in the robes vanished, leaving Jac staring at the empty space between him and the lady Mai next to the ducks' item shop. He couldn't make heads or tails of what had just happened, but he knew he had to do as the robed man had said.
Jac trotted up the steps two at a time and hurried past Tyler where he always stood next to the Accessory Shop door. The next flight of steps took more time for Jac because he stumbled over a long wooden splinter on the fourth step.
Rushing past the empty cases lining the left wall of the First District's upper terrace, Jac saw his reflection. Fair skinned, with dauntless brown eyes and sandy brown hair that fell to his shoulders in spikes. He used to wear plain clothes, but lately he had taken up wearing a lavish, short, black cape that he could cover himself with on chilly nights, and stark black shirt, vest, and pants. His Heartguard gleamed at the base of his throat, a multi-faceted dark gem in the shape of a heart. A thick silver-colored chain was tied around his arm, the Titan Chain, and Three Stars was an emerald, a ruby, and a sapphire dangling on a gold chain from his belt. For the first time in a good while he noticed that he no longer looked as innocent as when Sora last went away those months before. He seemed too dark.
Jac stood before the Second District door and told himself that he only needed a hood like that of the robed man and he could look the way he wanted. If the Heartless were made of people's hearts, as Sora said, didn't that mean hearts were black?
The door opened with a creak and Jac rushed through, forcing it back shut before any Heartless could appear. He had let a Heartless into the First District once. It had taken him four days to track it down and kill it. Strangely, no Heartless rose from the silent stone slabs of the Second District walkway. Jac almost wished there were. He wanted to test his new strength on them.
Shaking off the thought, Jac jogged to the edge of the walkway and leapt off. It was only a seven foot drop. He had taken a worse fall off of the top of the Gizmo Shop before. Smiling, Jac let his eyes be drawn to the mural beyond the fountain as he walked to its front. This mural was where Sora had sealed Traverse Town. It made Jac wonder what all the traveler could do.
A shadow formed in a pool in the fountain's waters. Startled, Jac raised the Dream Sword defensively. The shadow shifted and began to coalesce. In moments, the black-robed man was there, floating feet above the ground.
