You are not who you think you are...
Syrus' eyes shot open as he heard this, and struggled to get to his feet. Because the room was so dark, he simply fell back down again.
"Are you afraid of the darkness?" came a deep, dark voice that seemed to come out of nowhere.
"What are you talking about?!" Syrus yelled. "Where's my family at?! Where am I...?"
A short figure suddenly appeared before him, dimly lighting up the dark room, just enough so that he could see the ground. It had a huge design of the boy he'd been seeing in his dreams. "Kaiden...?" Syrus murmured, standing up and looking at the design curiously.
"You know this boy?" the short figure asked.
"Yes," Syrus replied. "I...I think...I've seen him in my dreams..."
"Hmm...you are different from the others...but no matter, the circle speaks the truth of the one who stands upon it...you are connected to this boy in some way, and in order to find him you must face the three trials."
"Trials?" Syrus asked, confused. "W-what kind of trials?"
The figure suddenly began to fade away. "That is for you to decide..."
Wait!" Syrus exclaimed, running towards the the short figure in an attempt to stop him. He instead appeared to go through him and fell to the ground again.
"Ah! Wait! Please...come back!" He stood up and looked around, seeing nothing but darkness. "I'm all alone again..." he murmured, a tear rolling down his cheek. As he said this, however, a small girl appeared in front of him.
"No you're not Syrus..." she said happily.
Syrus looked up in surprise at the voice of the small girl. She had black hair like him, but it was tied into two ponytails that dangled from the sides of her head, and she also had green eyes, like his own. He quickly realized she was his sister.
"Kirru!" Syrus yelled, his eyes open wide. "Where are mom and dad? Are you alright?" The girl simply stood there, smiling at him, so he began to walk toward her. A tall man wearing a black robe suddenly appeared behind the girl, and wrapped his arm around her neck. Syrus saw that a small blade was clenched int he man's hand, now pushed against the girl's throat.
"Kirru!!!" Syrus screamed. "Let her go! I swear...if you hurt her...I'll..."
"You'll what?" the man asked, laughing. He barely pressed the sharp object into the girls throat and a red liquid spilled onto the blade's edge.
"Darn you!" Syrus yelled. He charged towards the man in an attempt to tackle him, but he disappeared, then reappeared behind Syrus and elbowed him in the neck, sending him crumbling to the floor.
Syrus simply lay there, holding the back of his neck in pain.
"You are weak...you will never be able to defeat the darkness...much less protect your own family..." the man taunted, pointed his finger down at Syrus.
The boy became filled with anger and jumped to his feet. "Shut up!!!" he yelled, balling up his fists. A huge key suddenly appeared in the corner of the room. Syrus eyed the strange object curiously, then realized he could use it to defend himself. He took a lunge, rolling past the cloaked figure, and picked up the keyblade.
He then charged forward and swung at him as hard as he could. The man slowly began to dissolve, as did Kirru. "Kirru...not you too..." Syrus murmured. "Please...don't leave me again...I need you..."

The short figure suddenly appeared in front of Syrus again. "You have passed the first trial..." he said, clapping. "Well done."
Syrus simply raised an eyebrow, clenching his teeth. "Where is she!!" he exclaimed, clenching the keyblade he now held with both hands. "Tell me or I'll kill you!!"
"They were only visions, my friend...there is no need to fight...not against me, anyhow...I am only here to help..."
"You're helping by showing me visions of my little sister being killed?! You're sick!"
"They are not my visions...they are yours..." the figure said, then began to disappear once again.
"Oh no you don't..." Syrus quickly ran up to him and swung his keyblade hard, but it hit nothing but air. He cautiously turned and looked in all directions.
"You'll never be anything like me..." came a voice. Syrus immediately recognized the voice and turned around to see Kaiden standing there, holding the huge crystal sword over his shoulder.
"Kaiden...why you...how am I connected to you? Why do I keep having these...dreams of you and your friends?" Syrus asked.
"Shut up! Quit talking and show me what you're made of!" Kaiden screamed. He then ran up to Syrus and swung low. The boy wasn't expecting the attack and tripped, falling to his knees. Kaiden then swung upwards and hit him in the chin, causing him to flip backwards and fall onto his stomach. He quickly stood up and blocked Kaiden's next attack, then jumped over one of his low attacks. It was at this time he saw his own chance to attack, so he swung near Kaiden's face as hard as he could.
Like the others, Kaiden's body slowly began to disintegrate and disappeared into the darkness. Filled with faithlessness, Kaiden dropped to his knees, throwing the keyblade across the room. Before it could touch the floor, though, it flew right back into his hand.
"What's with this thing..." he murmured, studying the keyblade.

"Very good...you have passed the second trial...only one remains..." came the voice of the short man. He appeared like before and studied the Syrus who had fallen to his knees.
"Giving up already?" he asked, kneeling to stare into Syrus' eyes.
The boy looked back with anger and hatred. "What do you want from me?" he asked, beginning to stand up.
"It is not what I want...but what you want..." the man replied, turning and walking away.
"What do you mean by-" he paused. It was too late, the man was gone again.
I wonder what's next... he thought to himself, looking around the room. Unknown to him, several shadow creatures began to crawl out from the ground behind him and hissed loudly.
Syrus quickly turned to face them, holding the keyblade in front of him in a defensive stance.
You have seen the Heartless before, in your dreams...but now you must fight them...
Several of the shadow-like creatures crawled out from the floor, their yellow eyes darted towards Syrus. He circled around, looking at them with wide eyes.
"T-there's too many..." he murmured, sweat dripping from his brow.
It is quality that counts...not quantity...
Several Heartless suddenly began to run towards him from all sides, swinging their sharp claws and snapping their powerful jaws. As they got closer, Syrus thought of what he would do. The Heartless came closer and closer, and when they were just a few feet away, they all leapt into the air.
Syrus jumped upwards as well, spinning the keyblade around him and knocking the heartless back onto the ground. They quickly disintegrated, but there were more approaching. Syrus dodged a few of them, striking at their backs, then cut down the rest of them with skill he never knew he posessed. When they were all disintegrated, a large door appeared at the end of the room with a keyhole in it.
You know what to do...
Syrus nodded, then walked up to the door and plushed the keyblade into the hole. There was a blast of light as the doors opened, and he stepped through.
