Introducing my Kingdom Hearts Self-Insert character, Miyu!
If you are interested in reading her story, it is under the cut! It is constantly being updated, since it is incomplete, so I will share when I add more!
I would love to hear anyone’s thoughts on the story! I haven’t felt this proud of any story I’ve written!
[DISCLAIMER: In any of the links to finished scenes, anything written in Red has been taken from the official Light Novels, rather than me rewriting the canon content. I basically just inserted my own canon into those moments.]
The story is currently still in progress, and I tend to write things out of order as I think of them, so for now it is broken up into a timeline format. Once everything is written, I will share it as a full fic!
Miyu is a Princess of a Kingdom off in a certain world. She has two very special friends who she has grown up with. The three of them often get into trouble together inside the castle, such as sneaking off and avoiding their responsibilities. They all dream of traveling to other worlds someday to explore. [READ]
At a young age, Miyu is sent to the Land of Departure to train under someone named Aqua. During this training, she uses her wand, but by the end of her training, Aqua bequeaths her Keyblade to her, giving her the opportunity to have one of her own in the future. (This training ends a few days before the story of Birth By Sleep)
Years pass and Miyu is more than ready to leave home, not wanting to be forced into the role of becoming queen. She continues her training on her own, hoping it would be a useful skill for when she does finally get to leave, occasionally sparring with one of her two friends, Ceri. Her other friend Leslie, on the other hand, spends some time away, learning a skill that the other two know nothing about.
When Leslie returns, they discover she was learning to fly a magical ship that allows the travel between worlds, but she was warned that it was only to be used for certain purposes. This doesn’t stop the trio, however, from wanting to use it as their way to get out. [READ]
They travel together for maybe around 2 years or so, enjoying their time away from their home and growing closer to each other in the process.
Unfortunately, while visiting one world in particular, the girls go up against a giant Heartless(or another monster. Haven’t decided yet). Miyu ends up being overly confident in her skills with her ice magic, and during one of her attacks, she slips on some ice on the ground, and leaves herself open to be attacked. Her friends jump in to protect her, but the Heartless(?) was far too strong and its attack blasted them each into separate worlds.
Miyu wakes up in the forest outside of Twilight Town, where she finds she was with a mysterious hooded man (Axel) - [READ]
Over time, the two regularly run into each other and eventually become friends, who actively seek each other out and meet up when they can. [READ]
During this time she also befriends a yellow dog with the name Pluto on his collar. She isn’t sure where he came from, but the two of them spend a lot of time together when she is alone.
During the 358/2 Days Story (Light Novel version), after Xion fails to defeat Riku, Saix orders Axel to search all the different worlds to find him, telling him he can search them in any order he chooses. After this, when talking with Miyu, he learns that she believes her friends are out in other worlds. Wanting to help her, he decides to offer to let her go on his missions with him so she can search for them. Miyu, however, doesn’t know anything about him being involved in the Organization (or what it even is for that matter) - [READ]
While searching in Agrabah, Axel notices another member is on a mission there, and since he doesn’t want anyone to see that he is letting Miyu tag along on his missions, when they aren’t supposed to be interacting with people from other worlds, he finds a way to distract Miyu, then sends his fellow member off, volunteering to do her mission for her. As it turned out, that member was actually one of the friends she was searching for! She ended up joining the Organization as their 15th member not long after the three girls were separated from each other, but since neither of them actually saw each other, Miyu had no idea they were briefly in the same place.
While searching for Miyu’s friends in Arendelle, the two start to get a little more comfortable around each other. - [READ]
During their search in the Kingdom of Corona, Miyu and Axel really start to realize how they feel about each other, but Axel has trouble believing his feelings are actually genuine. (My favorite so far!! If you read nothing else please read this one!) - [READ]
After this world visit, Miyu is sure that she has grown to have feelings for Axel, and while getting ready for their next search, she takes extra time to get ready, wanting to impress him that day. However… he doesn’t show up. (This is when Xion goes missing the first time. He had every intention of meeting up with her that day until he is sent off to find her)
From here, it gets much harder for Axel to help her, without getting her involved in all the trouble he is facing with his friends back at the Organization. He feels guilty for avoiding her, though, especially because he had also started developing feelings for her (even though he is constantly denying it to himself, thinking he isn’t actually able to feel that way.)
After going to the world of Neverland with Roxas for a mission, Axel decides it might be fun to take Miyu to this world to look for her friends. The fact that they would be able to fly would not only make it easier for their search, but he has a feeling she would really enjoy it, just like Roxas. Unfortunately, this ends up being their last world visit together, as things start to get a little messy back at the Organization with everything that happens with Xion.
To Miyu, it almost seems like Axel had disappeared for a while. She even starts to worry that he might be avoiding her.
The day Axel goes to the mansion outside of Twilight Town to retrieve Xion, Miyu happens to be in the forest and witnesses the whole thing. She chooses to keep herself hidden and not let him know she was there, as she could tell what was happening was something important that she shouldn’t get in the middle of. But while hearing some of their conversations (the light novel goes more in depth on what they say to each other while battling) she ends up with more questions about Axel and his life. She plans on asking him about these things she overheard the next time she sees him, but by the time that comes, she ends up completely forgetting everything she saw that day (this is because of what happens when Xion goes away) - [READ]
They don’t actually see each other face to face again until after Roxas leaves the Organization and Axel is going in and out of the digital Twilight Town to try to bring him back. He goes to the real Twilight Town to clear his head after one of those visits and runs into Miyu. She isn’t upset with him for pretty much ditching her, but she is concerned for him, as she can sense that something is wrong. He won’t really tell her anything that is going on, but assures her that he will be fine, because he’s “tougher than he looks” - [READ]
After Axel fails to bring back Roxas, he decides its for the best to push Miyu out of his life to protect her, since the Organization wants him eliminated.This ultimately crushes her, and brings her to her lowest point. Not only is she without her two best friends, but now she believes the one person she had grown close to since losing them wants nothing to do with her. However, since she noticed he was injured when this happened, she sends Pluto to keep an eye on him. (This one is very canon story heavy, but because of how well it all fits together, I wanted to include a lot of the canon scenes for context. Because of the length, I broke it up into parts, though Part 1 is really most important) - [READ Part 1] [READ Part 2] [READ Part 3]
During the KH2 Light Novel, Axel teams up with Riku (in his Ansem form) and Namine, and the three of them help Sora and his friends from behind the scenes, while trying to think of a way to rescue Kairi after Axel messed up when he kidnapped her. During their time together, Namine sees the three of them as becoming friends and even draws a picture of them together. However, at one point while Riku is away, Namine starts to ask Axel about Miyu, since she witnessed what happened when he pushed her away. She also draws a picture of the two of them together. - [READ]
Axel ends up “betraying” Riku and Namine and is reinstated into the Organization, though Xerci and Saix are suspicious of him - [READ]
Axel’s “death” and Sora telling Miyu what happened - [READ]
Ever since meeting Sora, Miyu starts getting mysterious letters from someone claiming to know her. These letters appear out of nowhere, like magic, and give her advice when she needs it. (What she doesn’t know is that these letters come from one of her best friends, who was able to send them after learning of her location when she heard that Sora had met her)
Around the time period of Dream Drop Distance, Miyu saves up enough munny to get a home in Twilight Town (rather than just staying in a hotel all the time), which is something she ends up being very proud of. She was someone who was once a princess with servants and such, living out on her own and taking care of herself. She had come to terms with the fact that it is possible she was stuck there for good, and while she didn’t want to remain stuck forever, she was much more comfortable living in Twilight Town than back in that castle she grew up in.
After Sora fights the Demon Tide in Twilight Town (KH3) and it flies away afterward, it ends up in the same area of Town that Miyu is in. She had been practicing her fighting skills quite a bit after losing Axel, but she still wasn’t quite ready to fight something like this. She starts to feel the same way she did during the fight that caused her to be separated from her friends, and is worried that she will lose this battle too, but suddenly her wand transforms into a Keyblade when she is backed into a corner and she is able to fight harder and defeat it.
Soon after getting her Keyblade, Miyu receives another mysterious letter, instructing her to take a special train out of Twilight Town to a certain tower, where she can get proper training with her keyblade. Upon arriving, she discovers that one of the friends she had been searching for was the one who had been sending the letters, and the two have a tearful reunion.
Miyu is then sent to the Secret Forest to train with two other Keyblade wielders.
Miyu meets Axel again and they confess that they had feelings for each other before - [READ]
When all the Guardians are together, Miyu gets to reunite with Aqua again. She is impressed with how far she has come since their training from when Miyu was young.
After the battle with Saix, Miyu’s Friend Group is fully Reunited - [READ]
After the final battle, everyone goes back to where they belong with all of their friends. Miyu and Axel are the first ones to arrive to the Clock Tower and Miyu comes clean about how she is really a princess who ran away from her home world. Later in the conversation, they even share their first kiss while waiting for the others to arrive (only to be caught by Roxas when he shows up, oops) But when everyone arrives, the entire group sits together having ice cream - [READ]
