Miya

WARNING! THIS PROFILE IS LONG AND EXTENSIVE!

Miya is the only Kingdom Hearts OC created by IrishPirateQueen. Her creator has created a blog in which you may interact with her at The Wizard's Pupil.

Miya is a young woman raised before the fall of Radiant Garden by her adopted father, Ansem the Wise. A girl with the curious power over Shadows and a heart for loved ones Miya fights for the things she cherishes most.

She's a Wizard-in-Training under the Sorcerer, Yen Sid. She is highly skilled in physical combat and well versed in magic. A scholar at heart with a very bright mind.

Yet for all her strengths Miya has a surplus of weaknesses and flaws. But through the hardships she experiences she continues to grow and mature in the path she is meant to travel.

Before the Fall
Ansem the Wise is Miya's father. He adopted her as an infant when he found her in the garden one night. He has never been able to explain the unique girl's appearance in Radiant Garden and has nicknamed her 'His Falling Star'. Miya adores this nickname. He does begin to wander from the time it was just them, delving into science and studies. Their relationship starts out very strong, but over time they become further and further apart.

Ienzo and Miya met when she was near 7 years old and he was about a year old when her father's friend, Even, came to live at the castle. She fell in adorational love with the baby when she first saw him and dubbed him her baby brother. She made a promise to always be there to protect him. Ienzo and Miya have a very strong bond of love and adoration.

Braig has many roles in Miya's life. Not just as a Bodyguard, but she sees him as a surrogate father. She idolizes him, though the older she gets the more of pain she is for him by always running away when he needs to keep an eye on her. Braig and Miya have a very playful and loving relationship.

Zuga is a young woman who is a friend of Braig's that comes to the castle and becomes the nanny of Ienzo. Miya helps Zuga out from time to time with her baby brother, and the two girls bond and become really close. Zuga teaches Miya a lot of things when it comes to girl things, though most of them are unique lessons because Zuga is from a world different from Radiant Garden. Their relationship is loving and tender, what a mother and daughter should be.

Lea is one of Miya's best friends and part of the Trio consisting of Miya, himself and Isa. An orphan boy and partner in crime to Isa, Lea is bright, perky and a bit hyper around fireworks. He and Miya form a strong bond and become each others' first crush as they age. Their relationship is of mischievous teammates with total loyalty and small amounts of likable interest in each other. Isa is the third member of Radiant Garden's 'Three Muket's', ad Braig likes to refer to them as such. He is certainly the brains and on track master mind of the trio's plots. To Miya, Isa is like the protective big brother, to both her and Lea. Though as he grows into a teen he wishes for more than that role, he's truly smitten. His love of astronomy inspires and fuels Miya's love for them. The kids spend many hours stargazing. Their relationship is a protective one, Isa guards his friends fervently and loyally. Zack Fair, part of another trio of orphans in Radiant Garden, consisting of the eldest and leader, Cid, and slightly younger Reno. Zack is the youngest. This trio is rival to Lea and Isa. But it is good natured. Zack and Miya grow close over time, and they become best friends. Confidant's to tell each other anything and everything. Zack teases her about being a damsel and Lea, but always encourages her to be her best and not be afraid of her feelings. Their relationship is third most significant, after Ansem and Ienzo. They are Best Friends Forever.

Dilan is the second guard, and under Braig. He is like a picky, nagging mother. Miya does pull any pranks and is not an angelic individual. They do not have a harmonious co-existence.

Aeleus, third guard of the Palace Guard. He is very much the protector of Ienzo in the event of him leaving the castle. Miya and Aeleus coexist peacefully and have Ienzo's well being in mind.

Even is like an uncle, overbearing and nitpicky about Miya and Ienzo's education. This causes Miya to detest her lessons and escape from them. She becomes a pest in the scientist's eyes, though still cherished.

Yen Sid met Miya when she was 14, and became her Master in the art of the Mystics. Their relationship started out strange, Miya respected her Master but only as a teacher. In truth, it was the first in a long time that Yen Sid had a female student. He did take the time to bond with his student and they grew close quickly. His encouragement and guiding hand was a stability she hadn't had for many years. Their bond causes both to flourish, each broadening their perspectives in life.

During KH
Zexion, a face 'caringly' reunited by Xemnas to 'save' Miya from the Seekers grasp. The face of her brother was the first loved one to be integrated back into her life after those 8 long years. Miya was highly unsure of how to respond, at least till he opened his mouth. Zexion had harbored a deep level of ill feelings toward his sister and they had stewed into a venomous nature. Upon Xemnas's orders Zexion's role in pulling Miya into his web in becoming a Nobody was to plunge her into a deeper, more tragic and agonizing dispair of her heart and mind. Who better to use than his illusionist and his preys most adored loved one. Zexion's disposition was snarky, rude, and degrading with out the mental torture, he reaped much pleasure from his mind games. The paranoia, the terror, her weakness and falling deeper into the black pit he'd opened beneath her were intoxicating. It was Xigbar's occasional stand in to her defense that gave her some hope, and pissed off the Illusionist greatly. When Xemnas felt it was time she was brought to the castle. It was Xigbar's slap to the face that broke Zexion into reality where he realized his wretched acts and what they meant for his sister. Seeking then to save her and redeem himself he worked with Xigbar to help her escape, and though the planned failed and she became one of them he chose to stay by her side, and to pull her out of the pit he had cast her into. Before his death Miya was able to sleep as long as he was there, they healed each other and sought answers to hopefully save themselves. With Xigbar's aid,guidance and protection they formed a trio built on feelings and ties of the past.

Xigbar, in the event of beung reunited with the knowledge Miya is alive takes back the roll of protective, fatherly guardian. To Miya this is a sincere set of feelings/emotions pulled from the past. He does anything within reason to make Miya move on from her pain: smile, keep her safe, ensure she doesn't get entangled in any foolish plots of the Organization members and works heavily on rekindling her and Zexion's bond. After Zexion's death he struggles to keep her away from Lea and Isa, and she begins to twist away to help them. Though both remain loyal to the other throughout it all. The truth behind his actions during this time is extremely uncertain. I believe he has her best interest in mind, but I also think his actions are setting up for the dispositions of many in DDD, and working for the benefit of another. But no matter what the future, Xigbar is still caught in the past and his bond with Miya has always been strong, protective and devoted.

Axel and Miya remain distant for quite a while till Castle Oblivion approaches. A few lengthy held stares whenever their paths cross with fewer exchanged words. Once in CO they begin to communicate tentatively. They interact very little, since Miya's main goal is secretly find the supposed Room of Awakening and keep it hidden per Zexion's request. Through this time Axel begins to gro increasingly concerned for her the more the CO team dies off, and when thats all over he's in a panic trying to find her before returning to Never Was. After CO Axel begins to grow closer to her, feeling a form of guilt and regret after being the cause of Zexion's death whom she mourns for. The two become loyal to each other though she distances herself from anything with Xion and Roxas as Zexion had given her advice to just not get tangled up in it. Axel doesn't pay her much attention during the events of the drama with the two younger members, and suspects nothing of what role she may actually play in it or who's side she is aiding. Their loyalty extends to after Axel defects from the Organization, and she follows after him to be sure of his safety. In the end Miya sacrifices her own freedom and safety so that he may continue on.

Miya and Saix's relationship is one that I feel is her most tragic, it gives me a lot of feelings that make me want to sob in a corner. Miya and Saix reunite after her change to a Nobody, but Saix differs when Axel remained distant; he interacted and spoke with her. Though most occassions it was tense, cold and abrasive on both parts as bitterness began to arise out of him and her being defensive. Like Zexion, Saix holds onto some lingering memories of the past and holds regrets and once unrequited feelings for the woman. Though on many occassions they find solice in silent moments that are rare and normally unexpected. Though things become much more stressed the more comfortable they become being around each other. After CO, Xemnas gives Miya the task of removing the Intruder from their business, and her continual failures make Saix more untrusting and suspicious of her as this continues. After the events with Xion and Roxas, Miya is very much on thin ice, even though no one is certain for what her actions did toward it, aside from the fact she did not successfully destroy the Intruder. When Axel defects and Miya follows after him, Saix shuts down and begins to just ice over like he use to be, taking it very much as betrayal and maybe somewhat of abandonment. He was not so stunned by Axel's defection, he had seen it coming, but Miya's, well he'd at least hoped that she had not forgotten the past like Axel seemed to detatch from. In the end it was Saix that brought Miya back when he attempted to track down Axel, the two engaged in a rather bloody and painful battle in a dark corridor before he had gotten ahold of Kairi. In the fight Miya was defeated and brutally injured and placed in a dungeon after being healed. After that Saix was as cold if not more so than when they were reunited.

Xaldin's relationship with Miya is just as simple as it was back in Radiant Garden, though much less of the distaste and defying attitude. The two get along, talk civily and don't really bring up the past for there is no point.

Lexaeus and Miya have the same relationship as in the past, though her maturity gives her a deeper respect for the man the more Zexion reveals about the two's loyalty to each other. Lexaeus is an ally to Miya and Zexion in CO, and is mourned on his passing.

Vexen holds the same disgruntlements toward Miya as before, and perhaps more so now. They both hold a great distaste for each other, and she despises that he still see's her as a child who gets in the way. Doesn't enteract with her at all and Miya doesn't mind. She avoids him as much as he does her.

In the relationship with DiZ, Miya is entirely unaware of the true identity of this strange sage. It is in Twilight Town that she is introduced to him and Riku by Namine. The little Nobody knew that Miya would be more an ally than an enemy to their cause. DiZ was not pleased with the arraignment he was out reasoned with, but most importantly DiZ was really not affected about his daughters predicament. His revenge path was his main focus, and thus Sora's awakening was much more important. It is during his trip to Never Was before his machine exploded Miya was with the hero's group and in that brief moment it was as if time had stopped, and in that space of white they had a chance to truly see each other, reunite and apologize for their past. It's one of Miya's few resolved relationships.

Zuga has not been seen at all during any of this, mainly because she wakes up from a fossilized sleep in the midst of KH 2, but also because lack of ability to plot with partner on what happens now.

Riku and Miya are mutual partners from after his appearance in 358/2 Days, Miya's mission had been to eradicate the Intruder. In her first pursuit of him, she recognized his presence with her shadows from CO. The two bond mildly as support for their failures, short comings and self loathings. They may have formed a mild sibling ish relationship during this time. When it is assumed Miya has died in the explosion of Ansem's machine Riku does quietly mourn.

Enemies
The young man adopted by her father named Xehanort, quickly found his way onto the 13 year olds greatly disliked and loathed list. Which was extremely short. Though in truth it was no act of his to cause the Princess's disfavor. But more so acts of Ansem the Wise. In her younger years Miya had been her father's pride and joy. But when Braig entered the scene, Ansem began delving into his old studies in the field of science. His love and attention began to pull away, and overtime she was just a rebellious child who took him away from his interests. Miya's reasoning for her budding rebellious nature was that any attention is better than none.

With Xehanort's arrival Ansem's attention was directed on him completely. Xehanort was soon the son he had never had, and he was intrigued with Ansem's studies. So in Miya's green eye, the fairly innocent victim had stolen the love of her father. This caused a great rivalry, and generally one-sided. That was till Ansem met Mickey and chose to send her away to learn from Master Yen Sid.

Hades becomes a very pesty antagonist once Miya and Zack begin to be known in the Olympus society as game players. On multiple occasions, he pulls short stops in the games to attempt to win, random kidnappings of each to get them to jump through nigh impossible hoops and just plain annoying chatter to each. Zack is extremely cautious around him and protective of Miya after the events that befell him with the three keybearers. In the end Hades attempts to break the duo only strengthens them and they become a team along side Hercules that thwarts the gods foolish plots. Hades enters Miya's life when she is 14 after learning some basics from Yen Sid, and going to Olympus for physical combat training.

The dark Fae, Maleficent, does not become a part of Miya's story till after the fall of Radiant Garden, at around 18 when Yen Sid feels Miya is ready to start investigating those who are not of neutral stance. This ranges from the good wizard Merlin to Maleficent and all in between. This is how Miya gets on the radar of many of the Disney Villians, and a few other characters that are not of nasty intent.

Maleficent ignores the girl till she is an older prospect, so once the girl reaches 20 she begins to use what she found out about Miya against her. So when they cross paths she uses verbal daggers as well as magic to defeat or at least deter the youth. Like most Villians, Maleficent is an antagonist like Hades.

Ansem Seeker of Darkness, the heartless lord who lurks in the depths of Hollow Bastion, seems to be the one that may be recognized as the one who got Miya on the problematic path the next few years of her life would take. Miya's arrival in Hollow Bastion is sensed by darkness that inhabits the world, it does what it can to lure her to a mechanism in the depths of the underground labs. With some poking around it turns on and opens a portal to the realm of darkness. Many heartless escape till she manages to shut it down. An apparition in physical form, but a physical body thanks to hypnotic illusion created by darkness is how Ansem interacts. The two cross paths half a year before the events of the game. The fight between the two is one of wills, and the desire to manipulate for end goals, in which Ansem wins.

It is through chance happenings that causes a change in focus. The old labs of Hollow Bastion are not as abandoned as they seem. Xemnas returns often to do a number of things there, and in one instance crosses paths Miya as she takes care of a task. It causes a rise in curiosity, and he chooses to dig. Knowing that Miya could have useful potential in the Organization. It is thanks to the intervention of Xemnas that breaks Miya from the spell Ansem holds on her. The cause of the war between Miya and Xemnas is due to his deceiving goals and desire to acquire her as leverage against a number of people. It is Xemnas that causes Miya to loose her heart and become a nobody. Their intense battle of wills continues through the entire plot of the main games.

Personality
Before Radiant Garden's Fall

Miya is a bright, perky kid. She has a huge heart and loves with every inch of its capacity. She's a very happy girl, and loves to make mischief with her best friends Lea and Isa, and sometimes her little brother Ienzo… and then the occasional solo mission. She loves her family and friends deeply, thankful for them everyday. Miya has her faults, she's a normal young teenager. Full of mischief and blooming rebellion, especially with the less time her father spends with her. She doesn't like being ignored, she's strong willed and very stubborn. Miya is loyal to a fault, and very trusting. She has her fears, fears of the little heartless that haunt her steps, of losing those she loves and not being loved by her father. She hides her worries and sadness by being a very active and perky child.

After Radiant Garden's Fall

Miya is drastically different from the innocent child she used to be. Before Radiant Gardens was destroyed, Miya was a happy kid, with a bright personality and a loving heart. But from 16 to 24 she has had the time to lock all of her emotions, memories and happiness away in the depths of her heart, all to simply block the pain of the reality that she has none of her friends or family left. For those eight years Miya has felt hollow and empty, blocking any type of emotional distress with her studies, keeping the nightmares at bay by not sleeping. Miya is a distressed young woman, suffering from PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder), she is highly paranoid and an insomniac. She has little life in her anymore. Yen Sid and Mickey worry about her, but hope to let her grieve in her own time. Miya has a quick temper, sharp tongue and generally has a sour attitude, if not just downright depressing. She does her best to hide it though, and that generally fails, she only fools herself.

Appearance
Since Miya hails from Destiny Islands her appearance is unique in the setting of Radiant Garden. Her skin matches the ethnic group that Wakka and Xehanort extend from. Her eyes are rich, earthy brown. Her form is petite and lithe, though properly proportioned between weight and height. The most peculiar feature about her is her strange hair. It does grow, but she always cuts it, and never changes its two toned violet and indigo hues. The uniqueness stems from the event of darkness being placed in her heart as an infant; her natural hair that is never known, at least currently, is thick black hair.

As a young child Ansem dressed Miya in dresses of varying colors. Both liked the idea of colors and using all of them. It was a fun experience for both. As a young teenage Miya likes to wear specific clothes, a style that fits her personality that is perky and bright. You can always find her wearing a black hair ribbon that she ties on the right top side of her head, a pair of elbow length fingerless gloves that are black and white striped, a pair of lace up white boots and a chain belt with a little purple heart charm attached to it. Miya will wear mostly long pants, ranging from denim to black, sometimes wear shorts. You will almost always find her in tank tops, though she loves wearing overly long sleeved shirts in the winter. Miya loves wearing green, blue, purple, black and white. Her favorite outfit is a high collared, button up green sleeveless top with silver buttons, a pair of black pants with lots of zippers and pockets, her gloves, ribbon, boots and belt.

Miya's style doesnt change much from her teen years. She still wears the black ribbon, white lace up boots, her belt and the same black and white striped fingerless gloves. Though she doesn't wear many colors anymore, just black and white, and the white is only minimal. Her main attire is long black pants, black tank tops, and a black corset for an accent. She has a sleeveless black coat, trimmed with white. Its tail cut into three points that look like petals of a flower, a hand sized white circle in the center of each petal. Miya also wears thick black lipstick and a silver stud in her left side of her nose.

In her whole life her attire changes for most worlds she visits. It's a concept Yen Sid has made sure she understands.

Through the events of Miya turning into a Nobody her eyes are gold, not yellow and nor does this mean she is a vessel for Xehanort. Since her birth Miya had the normal amount of darkness any human heart posseses, when Master Xehanort found her he pondered an experiment and placed much more darkness in her heart which began the cause of a great unbalance. Throught out her life Miya, in one way or another, has always continued to lilt towards the darkness. From her shadows, to the plauging heartless, the events that happened when Radiant Garden went under, the darkness in her nightmares and stewing in her darker time in life it's not a shock that when Miya fought Xemnas for her life she reached as deep as she could go and pulled out the darkness inside of her. Her eyes bear the mark of fully embracing that side of things.

Hobbies and Relaxation
Since Miya began training she found great pleasure in her agility training, wanting to be better and continue the education in this area she took up gymnastics.

Influenced by her love of gymnastics, Miya has a secret love for dancing. From ballroom to composing her own pieces, this is implemented in some of her magic masterpieces with her color magic and shadows.

At the age of four Ansem noticed that Miya had a constant interest in drawing. He made sure to encourage and immoblize this budding ability. There has hardly been a time that Miya does not draw in some fashion. She prefers graphite pencils and sketchbook paper.

To escape from stress or difficult times she finds a quiet place and meditates. If she has the ability she will go to Olympus and enroll in a game for old times sake. The older she gets the more she fades from these old ways, but once she gets out of her low point in life these become more used, and she develops more of a healthy lifestyle.

The Stars Align (1-6)
Events that transpire 16 or so years before Birth By Sleep

Miya's story truly begins even before she could remember events that took place around her. The age it begins is still unsolved, but it ranges from 6 months to a year. Miya was born to a older couple on Destiny Islands, they are unnamed and undeveloped aside from the fact they were older and had a hard time becoming pregnant. They lived in a sail boat and traveled around the islands often. It was one very unfortunate night that a storm rolled in and they were casualties of that storm. Before the boat was wrecked they set a small floating cradle out to sea through a porthole, for they were trapped inside by the fallen mast.

The cradle was swept through the storm, how it was protected is unknown, it reached a near by island near a figure watching the storm. This figure was Master Xehanort, urged out of shelter due to a tug of the universe. He found the baby and took it to the shack he shared with his apprentice, Braig. After a brief discussion with the boy Xehanort decided on what to do with the child. He had no need of another student, nor the desire to raise the child, but he was not inclined to abandon it. Plus there was potential for future use, and anything that could be a chess piece to aid in checkmate. And he had a great curiosity, and felt compelled to execute an experiment that had been on his mind for some years.

What might happen to an individual if they have a substantial amount of darkness within them, and grow up in an environment full of light.

A cruel act many may think, but to the curious old man a chance to understand better the interaction between two sides of the scale. And Radiant Garden was a world that was full of light and had other uses in its confindes. Intended target to have find the child was the King, for that would be a stepping stone for the future. Filing the infant's heart with darkness, he left the world and set her in the path of the king on a nightly stroll. Xehanot left shortly after, assured of the outcome that would transpire in his favor.

Ansem did indeed find the baby, who was crying loudly in distress. His heart was touched by her, brown eyes huge with a sadness that shocked him. Fate had brought the child to him, and he chose to adopt her as his own. Reasoning a in the fact he was later in age, had no wife or woman of interst and thus no heir, plus he had desired greatly to be a father. He legally adopted her, his parllement did not like this course of action one bit, for the child was foreign in appearance to their culture. Of course, like with most things, Ansem disregarded them and adopted her.

He named her Miya, after a fictional heroine who rearranged the stars to save a dying world. The name was Miyako, which meant beautiful night child. In Ansem's mind she was his Little Fallen Star for that was how he explained her strange arrival to their world.

The next few years were peaceful and smooth, Miya grew up into a well adjusted little girl who loved her father greatly. It isn't until Miya was 6 years old that things began to change.

Reaching for the Stars (6-16)
Events that transpire 7 years before Birth By Sleep and 3 or so years after.

Pre Birth by Sleep


Worlds turn, plans come to fruition, and the next step is taken. And so is the case with this progression. Xehanort's plan took a step forward by sending his pupil, Braig, to Radiant Garden. In the hopes of Braig getting a position under the King, a plot was devised to make sure such was the case.

Once on the compound the scream of a young child caught the young man's attention and he sought out the source. It was the 6 year old Miya, being chased by a exuberant little shadow heartless. With this being the opportunity needed Braig shot it and saved the young princess. The girl was ecstatic and ran to find her father to tell about her hero. Braig feigned it was nothing but suggested that he should look into security measures.

Ansem agreed and asked if he would be so willing to become the Captain of the Guard and Miya's Guardian. Before this the royal family had felt little need for guards and so this was quite a start for the whole community. Both Braig and Master Xehanort were satisfied with this, Braig was in and unbeknownst to him, his charge was the same little girl from the stormy night on Destiny Island. And Xehanort felt it useful to reap information on his young experiment in passing.

With the next step in the plan succeeded it was time to lay low for the conspirators.

But for the young Miya, life was just beginning. Her father had never really let explore the world on her own, and now with her guardian she could do that everyday and all day. One of the first events she was able to experience independently was a festival. Miya was playing with chocobo chicks in the livestock tent when two boys came in talking abouttheraces and betting. A trio of other boys came in and the five got into a small spat about what chocobo would win the race and which group would walk away more the richer.

These boys were Lea and Isa, and then a young Cid, Reno and Zack. After he three boys left Miya poed her two cents into which stead the boys should pick, after much debating they agreed. The chocobo won and that was the start of a beautiful friendship between the trio.

Being that the boys were orphans and survived on their own Miya began to learn useful world knowledge from them. Ansem saw the relationship forming and choose to do what he could for the two boys. The kids became tight, called themselves the Three Musketteers and were total mischief.

Not many months later Ansem sends note to an old colleague and offered a position as his research wingman. The man, Even, agreed and arrived at the castle ready for work with a young infant of his own. A baby boy who's family had recently passed away and left him with Even who was a close family friend. Miya adored the little boy, who was named Ienzo, and quickly dubbed herself as his big sister, promising to take care of him forever.

Life fell quite, normal routines where formed and children grew up. It was 6 years later when Miya turned 12 that things began to shift and turn. The young girls life changing and realizations sinking in.

Things change not due to any events but the shifting feelings and dispositions of a young girl immerging into a teenager. Part of the benefits of having a guardian for Miya was that Ansem could do his scientific studies and focus on them more. Ansem is a man with a tendency to shift his focus from one I the resting thing with another, and sad but true this is what happened with Miya. She began to grow up and become independent of him, he let her do whatever she wanted for the most part, and most discipline or redirection came from Braig, the other two guards or Even who taught the children school.

This caused a unnoticed attachment disorder leaning toward the Ambivalent Attachment. Ansem's inconsistency in her life from 7 up formed her to be attached to him greatly but also reject him. He never took time to do walks or just spend tie with her, his attention dwindled toward her. The only time she would gain any from him was for reprimanding in situations that didn't need as harsh a hand, and was always brisk and displeased in those moment. It was clear he favored Ienzo since the boy had interests in the sciences he and Even delved into. Ienzo was the perfect child, Miya was the problematic teen.

As Miya reached her preteens, these rebellious events became more frequent and on purpose. She did it to spite people they were directed at, show him she could do what she wanted, and also to just get his attention. A child like this believe any attention is better than none. This angered Ansem greatly, why was his little princess behaving this way? He didn't have time to deal with such nonsense so he would ground her often. Miya herself didn't understand why she did the things she did, and why she felt that way towards it all and that itself caused more pain.

It was a constant battle of wills between them. It caused a stress on her relationship with Ienzo, which she didn't realize it. Even though they did things together he was distant and chose to use her as a proxy to get out of trouble.

It was a particularly rebellious event that Miya blew up at her father at the age of 12, telling him all her feelings with the situation and him. She was shut down and sent to her room, feeling crushed that he would not even consider how she felt.

One thing that was constant in her life since 6 was the presence, every now and then, of shadow heartless. They had always appeared in her emotional times, not that she knew this. No matter if it was good or bad emotions, and not even Braig could explain to Xehanort this oddity. But the reason was because they could sense her heart and how familiar and friendly it felt to them. But why? It stems back to the darkness placed in her heart as an infant, and the light of her environment had made her heart sit in a unique place of shadow. That shadow has similar properties to shadow heartless, thus the draw. Miya however never has liked them and they caused her a great deal of anxiety since she was 6.

So in this moment of preteen crisis, where her heart was raging in pain, sadness and rejection a group of small shadow heartless appeared. Normally their response to her was never harsh or forceful, but with her heart in a frenzy they were as well.

Their appearance in her room caused her heart to switch from sadness to panic and terror. Sudden reactions equaled the heartless jumping on her in attack mode. She was expecting a hit, curled into a tight ball for protection. But none came, the only sound was the sound of dissipating darkness. Opening her eyes she was met by the sight of a dark gray shield of foreign matter coming from her hand.

Miya told no one of this event, cause even she was scared of what she had done, which she still wasn't sure what that had been. But her curiosity grew and it egged her. She wanted to know. So she began to take time away from people, putting herself in harms way to find that weird thing she had done before. When she found it she began to mess with it, figuring how to summon it with out peril. And as time went on began to realize she could control actual shadows with her mind, and morph the substance into other objects. Miya concluded that she had a strange and unique ability to control shadows. How she was able to do this she didn't know, nor would it be explained any time soon.

But this ability is the direct outcome of Xehanort's experiment. A heart with dark in an environment of light caused the heart to fall into a balance of shadow. Her heart would be mostly saturated in darkness with a strong vibrant seed of light in the midst of it.

After these events things began to quiet down between Miya and Ansem. Miya behaved for the most part, going back to her less rebellious ways and just being more mischievous with the boys. When her 13th birthday hit she was allowed to get her ears peirced. After showing Lea and Isa, Isa goaded her by saying it didn't hurt and that she probably cried. He was being the teasing twerp and she knew how to tease back. She bet him that he'd cry getting his ear's peirced, and they made a bet. Miya would get her nose pierced, and Isa would get his ears done. Lea just watched near by, shaking his head and cringing.

Enough to say Miya won the bet, Isa had the first tear though she too shed a few. They laughed over it,the two's competitive nature seemed to get them in interesting messes.

Ansem wasn't pleased with this nose piercing, but simply put up with it. Braig found it amusing, Ienzo thought it foolish and Zuga giggled to herself quietly.

Birth by Sleep
It was shortly after this that the events of Birth by Sleep kicked in. Miya was not effected much accept a sore noggin. One thing is tied together with the co-story of Zuga. In our plot Braig has not yet been on board with the darkness thing, Zuga is a fellow apprentice with Braig and she is not cooperating with the Masters plan. Braig is on the fence on how he will go along with Xehanort's plan. Over time Xehanort was able to see the relationship between Braig and Miya, perhaps putting the girl in jeopardy would get Braig to move into his plan much more solidly and not be swayed by Zuga's disagreement. This takes place before Terra reaches Radiant Garden. He had Vanitas take time away from his own tasks to kidnap the girl by knocking her unconscious and taking her into the resiviors beneath the castle compound. Xehanort had no desire for his young prospect to know him, so she was kept asleep. He summoned Braig there and told him if he did not do everything he asked his young charge would be greatly harmed, a promise he could keep if need be. Braig was easily swayed and accepted the roll desired of him.

No one but Zuga was the wiser of Braig's explanation of his mangled face after the events with Terra. Miya was safe and that was what mattered. Later in Braig's life it would drag him someplace he would wish to escape but be to far gone.

It was once the amnesiac Xehanort arrived in Radiant Garden that Miya's life was truly shaken. The slim attention she did have with her father was gone, her time with Braig dissipated and Ienzo became much more focused on Xehanort and the research that came out of his arrival. Miya felt extremely abandoned and forgotten, she pulled away from Zuga, Lea and Isa even though she spent time with them she shut herself off emotionally.

Post Birth by Sleep
And she began to vigorously work with her shadows. In her anger and sadness she became more controlled with her shadows and decided to use them to seek mild, yet aggressive revenge against Xehanort. As well as sabotaging the experiments and work being done.

It was one day that she was in her room practicing that Zuga came into the room. It was silent and she had not expected the girl to be in there and was shocked by what she saw.

Miya was practicing with her shadows and walking in on this made both females stare at each other frozen. It was Miya who reacted when Zuga began to walk backwards out the door. Frantically begging her to not tell anyone. Seeing she was distressed Zuga stayed and comforted her, listened to her explain it all and promised to tell no one. Being that Zuga had her own magic quirks she could understand Miya's situation. Though being the one to worry and be concerned for one of the children she loved deeply, she felt the need to at least share in secret this with Braig.

Braig pondered this and kept it for later use if it became useful.

Nearing Miya's 14th birthday King Mickey arrived back in Radiant Garden on the reason that Yen Sid had felt an unsettling shift of darkness in this world of light. He spoke to Ansem and they quickly became friends, it was during this time that Miya pulled are particularly cruel prank on Xehanort and this caused Ansem great amounts of grief. Mickey inquired about the girl and he explained things of the past few years.

During that conversation Braig felt that dropping the bomb about his charges little quirk would be a good way to possibly extract a stress on Xehanort that was making him unproductive towards the old plan, and quite distressed.

Braig's revealing of this shocked Ansem, and made Mickey very curious. Enough to request he take Miya to meet his master, Yen Sid, and perhaps train her in the ways of magic.

Ansem pondered the offer as well as the situation he found himself in. Perhaps this explained a lot about his daughter and part of him wanted to keep her with him to study this peculiarity. But then he also realized that if Miya was away learning something for her future she would not cause disorder in the castle and hinder the experiments. Ansem accepted Mickey's offer and it wasn't long after some rushed good byes as well as a missed one for Ienzo that Miya was off on her own adventure.

Meeting Yen Sid was extremely awkward for the young teen. She understood that as she became his student she would have to submit to his authority and superior wisdom in her ignorance. It was. A hard shift, to swallow a pride and mentality she had towards her family to being an obedient student who respected her master.

It was 6 months that Miya spent with Yen Sid one on one each day. Learning histories of the worlds, basic magic, experimenting with her shadows, and being molded by the elder. It was teacher student interaction for about 2 months, it was when she asked to get some things off her chest that had been bothering her as she had begun to have time to analyze herself on the inside. Miya had a bit of a breakdown that Yen Sid was able to help the teen through and objectively help her get on a path that would build her up for the better.

After those 6 months Yen Sid requested of Phil in Olympus to train her in the ways of a hero. Physical training to give her a base of how to fight, use weapons and have a stronger, healthier body. It was agreed and she trained with the young Hercules. While in Olympus she met up with Zack again, their reunion was a crazed spazz of hugs and catching up over lunch. Both astounded by the others path to this world and vowing to train, fight and be there for the other. A pact of friends, and of comrades.

Miya was permitted to return home for the month of April for her birthday, so that she could enjoy her family and have a brief reprieve from her highly rigorous training. At her return the people who welcomed her home like nothing had changed was Lea and Isa, as well as Zuga. Ansem hardly took a moment to see her along with the rest of the Apprenticeship. Ienzo avoided her completely. This hurt her but instead of dwelling on anything inside her home she chose to spend her tie with Lea and Isa entirely.

She told them of her adventures, they shared hers. Teenage romance was in the air, things had changed in her absence. Best friends had formed crushes, and in a trio one always was left as the third wheel and competitive natures arose. For the longest time Miya had a crush on Lea, for as long as that was there Isa had a crush on Miya. The boy's competitiveness rubbed off on her and she noticed how awkward things were. So she attempted to also spend time with the boys separately. It was tiring. Lea respected her time with Isa, Isa on the other and found reasons to interrupt.

On the day before Miya would leave again, the three spent all day together. Roaming around town, the gardens and hanging out in their old hedge fort. It was later that Lea asked Miya to watch the sunset with him. They laughed and joked around, talked about future goals of the next year and chilled. Boy sees the girl and the girl sees the boy, the moment was right and Lea leaned in to kiss her.

It would of been their first kiss, as well as first shared. Except for the untimely interruption from Isa bearing sea salt ice cream for the three of them.

Saying good bye the next day was awkward with the boys, the near kiss gave her and odd feeling she didn't understand. It was depressing as well because out of her family, Zuga was the only one there. Jumping onto the gummi ship with Zack she left Radiant Garden and that would be the last time seeing it unscathed. Returning to Master Yen Sid Miya would continue learning spells for the Spellbook made shortly after he beginning of training.

Things changed very little in the next year, her renown of victory and conquest in the Olympus games grew substantially to placing her second beneath Hercules. Her young magic grew and flourished, catching the stalking gaze of Maleficent who would remember her later.

The year was the best se could remember, but turned painfully tragic upon her return.

Like the year before Zack and Miya returned to Radiant Garden for the month of April for a reprieve. The horror that folded out before the gummi ship gripped their hearts in terror and sorrow. Before them lay the whole world slowly being consumed by ravaging darkness.

At first Zack was intent on turning the gummi ship around and coming back when they had told Master Yen Sid and had a course of action, but Miya forcefully landed the vessel and ran off through the town castle. Leaving him to make brief repairs and search for her. Her heart was slamming in her chest more fiercely the closer she got to the castle being consumed by dark flames. The doors where barred by the darkness, and Miya's mind was not in a rational place in her panic and fear for her family. She kicked and fought the doors open, the darkness seeping into her and twisting itself in her mind.

Everything she saw once emerging into the castle she believed to be reality, but in truth she was seeing dark illusions of the darkness. Steering her away from the labs deep beneath the castle. It had her chasing phantom screams of Ienzo begging for her to save him behind a door she could not break and screaming that she had betrayed him, of Braig and Zuga perishing to Neo Shadow's, Lea falling into a pool of darkness and was able to grab his hand and pull him out, but as soon as he was out the darkness just swallowed him. Isa was found bloody and dead in a corner. The last thing she saw before blacking out was her father, shaking his head and looking at her angrily, blaming her and saying it was her fault they had perished since she had not saved them.

Zack found her unconscious in the foyer of the castle, darkness wafting off her body. She felt cold and her pulse was weak. He took her back to the gummi ship with Cid and a few of the children he'd saved as passengers. Zack returned Miya to the Mysterious Tower and told Yen Sid what had befallen their home. The sorcerer was greatly grieved by this news, he'd lost a friend and Miya had suffered loosing the worst thing imaginable.

Lost Among the Stars (16-24)
Begins right after RftS and bridges the gap of 8 years to 1 year to 6 months before Kingdom Hearts 1.

It was days before she woke up, trapped in a sleep of tortures and torments crafted by the darkness that had nestled its way into her and took up a conspicous residence in her heart and mind. She had been trapped in the worst hells it could of crafted, reliving her failur to save each of her loved ones, each one pierced her heart like a thousand daggers, twisting and writhing before being yanked out to be replaced by another. For a few months after she attempted sleep, but these same terrors occured, leaving her paralyzed and gasping for air each time she awoke, her screams filled her Master with great concern.

Miya asked of her Master what she could do to stop them, if there was any way to destroy the terrors. Yen Sid himself was heartbroken over how this event had destroyed his student, and was slowly dragging her down. They worked together to create a series of spells that would keep her from sleeping, energize her to maintain being awake, rejuvinate her body and rest her mind as sleep would. When complete Miya would use these spells every night for however long she deemed worthy.

During this time Miya fashioned her scepter Mei Orexis at 17, and a fail safe limit break called Last Ditch Effort or LDE at 20. Miya worked on many spells and read many books, but there where times Yen Sid had her go out on some in field experiences. Many of these outings where to hinder plots of various world tyrants such as Maleficent, Jafar, Hook, Hades and a fair number of others. All formed a great dislike and resentment toward her, which was expected.

It was a comment from her master that spurred on the event that took place in her leaving the comfort of her life. Yen Sid commented that she should take unexpected doors and see where they lead. With the world having many prying eyes it would be years down the road that Miya would understand who, or what had started her down the path she would lead next. The next night a dark corridor appeared in her tower room, and spurred on by her mentors statement and desire to attempt his suggestion she walked through.



Changing Our Stars (24-26)
Events that transpire during the whole of the 3 main Kingdom Hearts. KH1, ReCom, KH2.

Little Falling Star (26)
Events that begin in Re:Coded and into Dream Drop Distance
 * In the event of the explosion with Ansem the Wise in KH2, Miya is present and the two are briefly though not addressed, reunified.
 * The explosion throw’s Miya into a near wall, the impact causing physical brain damage and to fall into a comatose state.
 * The unique effects of the explosion, unless the path is made by someone, sends her psyche/self deep into the realm of sleep.
 * If one looks at the Realms as layers you have the Normal World at Layer 1, Sora’s Realm of Sleep at Layer 2, Riku’s Realm of Sleep at Layer 3, Miya’s Realm of Sleep at Layer 4.
 * In Layer 1, Miya’s physical body is  encased in shadow in the World that Never was, in the Castle, on a high ledge that’s not the easiest to find. Some weirdness in DDD Xemnas revealed that they where in the waking world, so TWTNW is still there, thus makes this a plausible situation.
 * Layer 4, Miya’s psyche/self is trapped in Radiant Garden, watching the repeating memory of good times days or months before it’s Fall. She continually lives through the Fall, attempting to help her 16 year old self save the world.
 * At some point in Layer 1 Miya’s body is located by Xigbar and Young MX, YMX enters Miya’s Dream World, pulls her out of her loop and into the castle where nothing weird is taking place. Miya was in a of tilted scape even in her home that kept her from accessing any real tangible things, could of been her own mind causing that barrier.
 * While in Layer 4, after being temporarily left alone, Miya see’s events in Layer 1 unfold of Saix and Xigbar leaving Lea, Ienzo, Dilan and Aeleus in the lab. It’s a strange event, and Miya wishes to stay with them till they wake up. But is prompted by YMX to either stay or find a way back to them.
 * It is through the doors of lab rooms that Miya enters the six sleeping worlds, Traverse Town, Notre Dame, The Grid, Prankster Paradise, 3 Musketeers, Symphony of Sorcery.
 * Layer 4 is different from 3 & 2. While Riku and Sora fight with Dream Eaters against Nightmares, Miya faces Dream Eaters & Nightmares aren’t even existing. Layer 4 is a deep layer and while seemingly normal, is with the worlds in darkness. It changes no settings or characters, it just effects what is a threat to anything in that layer. There are no keyholes, what Miya ends up realizing she is looking for are shards of her Orexis crystal, which is the Light of her Heart and it broke for the, I think 3rd and final time in her story. As she gather’s them the worlds slip up to layer 2&3 existence, bringing forth the keyholes and placing them in the light layers. The Dream Eaters of Layer 4 are the Nightmares of 2&3, for Miya used her shadows which progressively merge into pure darkness the entirety of her journey in Layer 4. When she finally has all her crystal pieces, she enters the final door, which is the Chamber of Sleep, see’s the armor before she entirely blacks out and her psyche returns to her physical body. (basic jist of everything)
 * While in Traverse Town, everything is one dimension, so TWEWY Gang is all together. There is this Dream Eater that is of my own creation.. or it could be Heartless… I call it a TimeWarp. It is Miya’s main foe the entirety of the journey. In TT it kicks her butt and TT gets split into two dimensions. She finds her shard and it attacks her, it’s been following her since her own dream… which I just decided is what kept her from doing anything in her own till YMX helped her out. Lookit that. She finds her shard in her old room with Cid and Co.
 * Once getting beat by the TimeWarp she gets tossed back through the door and heads into another one. Slight ReCoM/CoM feel… but no cards
 * In Notre Dame, the time is set around the time that Frollo ends up killing Quasi’s mom, in that event she watches from afar, knowing that these are strange worlds and would rather not twist up history, Yen Sid had warned her of disturbing world timelines. She finds her shard at the altar. TimeWarp does not fight her, just sends Dream Eaters.
 * Same door throw as before, into next. All the worlds she just goes straight through, doesn’t return to TT, finds her shards, does little to effect any timelines, fights Dream Eaters, and at times TimeWarp, it runs away before she can ever get a final blow or close to one.
 * It is at the final door, when she is inside that she faces TimeWarp a final time. She does get a final blow, her shadows that where too weak for the YinYang-ish spirit (for it is a balance of pure light and pure dark, and shadows do squat against either) that now became very closely pure dark now can match it. Whether this defeats it or not is… of little concern unless TimeWarp is wanted to be used later.
 * With it’s disappearing, left behind is a different type of Sleep spell and it causes her to fall asleep and her body return to Layer 1.
 * After that… not sure what happens, not sure if she wakes up, or if she is in the hands of the Organization or not. but yeah… that is what I’ve acquired :3 listened to her pandora station and BOOM >3 FINALLY!!

KHOriginal's Universe
In this AU Miya does not experience anything past KH2 so in the blast that would send her into a non-waking sleep she gets shot into the world with many other OC's that have their plots as their past and not crossing with others. This is mainly for the KHO Tumblr group.

Personality
Due to having the events of her past behind her and a sudden relocation to Hollow Bastion Miya is confused and out of her element. Miya is quiet and untrusting with anyone she meets until they either prove not a threat, or she gets use to them by their constant presence and she warms up to them. She is easily annoyed, on edge and a bit abrasive. She still suffers from her PTSD, which results in her depression, insomnia and paranoia. When she warms up with anyone they become her new family in this weird parallel world. She's loving, caring, jests with a fairly sharp sense of humor. Miya will eventually thaw and become a healthy 26 year old.

In the new Hollow Bastion she chooses to focus on rebuilding it, so she spends a great amount of time in the library studying and making spells to hopefully heal it, as well as become a Wizard.

She gets easily agitated if you call her anti social, interrupt her work, analyze her, act like you know her, or have a snarky attitude, especially before she really knows you. To be honest, she is not the most pleasant person when you first meet her, you may think she's rude, sarcastic, stand offish, snooty and a possible drama queen since she outwardly is depressed.

Appearance
Since Miya hails from Destiny Islands her appearance is unique in the setting of Radiant Garden. Her skin matches the ethnic group that Wakka and Xehanort extend from. Her eyes are rich, earthy brown. Her form is petite and lithe, though properly proportioned between weight and height. The most peculiar feature about her is her strange hair. It does grow, but she always cuts it, and never changes its two toned violet and indigo hues. The uniqueness stems from the event of darkness being placed in her heart as an infant; her natural hair that is never known, at least currently, is thick black hair.

Miya mostly wears a pair of white boots, black leggings, brown leather belt and pouch, a green tank top with a black vest. She still wears her trademark black and white striped gloves, black hair ribbon and her LDE heart necklace. She is prone to wander around the castle in pajama's even if she doesn't sleep. The others who live in the castle will eventually adjust to her strange habits.

Miya's Origin's
I first began work on Miya back in 2010 (I was 19), around February or March. A dear friend of mine got me hooked into Kingdom Hearts as she was playing 358/2 Days. We began to play with silly self insert rping over the phone and then we decided to make a legit roleplay with our own characters. Birth by Sleep was out by then, and we began to mold and meld a plot, and our characters. Miya came from messing around at tektek.org and listening to techno music. The song's I listened to inspired the initial avatar's creation, I had no name and no details that I actually wanted aside from her looks and that she was a friend of Lea and Isa's. 2010- fall 2011 me and my friend worked dillegently to shape her character, Zuga and Miya.

Random Creator Things
As the thoughts of if Miya were real I have solidified my opinion on her face claim and voice.

Face Claim: Delphine Chanéac Voice Actor: Evangeline Lily Quotes 


 * Zexion: "I'm sorry Miya... For everything. This is so difficult... I don't know why I'm this way... I wasn't like this before... before you came back."'  'Miya: "It's okay Zo... I'm not mad. I just... I think you've forgotten how to love"
 * If you had a friend lost in the deepest darkness... wouldn't you do everything to save them?''
