Summary
When Heartless attack Destiny Islands, Sora isn't the only survivor to wake up in Traverse Town. Together, he and Kairi will have to figure out what it means to wield the keyblade, how to save the worlds, and how to find Riku when they don't even know where to begin looking.
You see, Riku wasn't on Destiny Islands at the time that world fell. (He's inconvenient like that.)
Meanwhile, Maleficent has a very different apprentice, and more than one plan she's working on...
Best read after the previous stories in the series. [On HIATUS until further notice; I'm reviewing and editing earlier parts of the series, and will work my way back up to this.]

Summary
Hatake Riku, 14, genin medical student and recent infiltrator (and successful liberator of over a dozen prisoners) of Sound, wants to take the Chuunin Exams in Mist. So soon after the Fourth Mizukage's highly mysterious disappearance, the Exams are flooded with teams.
Riku's team may be the only one from Konoha, but they're not the only familiar faces in the competition. He'll have to navigate three test phases, figure out what Sound wants with him now, and find a place in a world he's increasingly unsure has room for someone like him.
[Third full story in the Becoming Ninja 'verse.]

Summary
When Tsunade sends Hatake Riku to Sound, he has three goals: 1) find out whether Sakura and Sasuke are even there; 2) find out what Sound's doing with the genin and dropouts they seem to be kidnapping; and 3) make it out in one piece without anyone finding out about his key.
Only Sound seems to be legitimately training the kidnapped genin, there's no sign of Sakura or Sasuke that Riku can see, and it's kind of hard to sneak around when he's under surveillance the whole time—and, on top of that, he can't use chakra.
[Second full story in the Becoming Ninja 'verse.]

Summary
A crossover between Kingdom Hearts and Naruto cooked up in the imagination of late-teenaged-me around 2010, back when I was reading chapters of Naruto and eagerly anticipating Kingdom Hearts 3, which was SURE to be out soon!
Riku is Hatake Kakashi's nephew, from his older sibling who never amounted to much; when he accidentally breaks Sora's arm using chakra over a year before the events of KH1, Riku's mother panics and sends for the other half of his family to help. Riku reluctantly agrees to be trained as a ninja, with all that entails. But plucking someone out of one story and shoving them in another is messy business, and has some far-reaching consequences for later events, both in the world of the Elemental Countries and in the greater Realm of Light as a whole...

Summary

Summary
There was another student here.
Tom recognized him vaguely—while transfer students were not necessarily uncommon due to the war, they were rare enough to at least make an impression. This particular transfer student was in his year, sorted into Ravenclaw after an impressively long hat stall. He looked like he might be descended from the Potter line, but he did not share the surname so his lineage was of no particular interest to Tom. Nothing about him was of particular interest to Tom, in fact, and yet here he stood, holding the book that Tom had come here to find.
It would be a good time to turn away. The Restricted Section was restricted for a reason—only books documenting extremely dangerous or extremely advanced magic were stored here.
Tom’s feet, however, suddenly felt as if they were made of lead. It wasn’t magic keeping him tied down, but something far more mysterious like curiosity or even fate. In any case, the delay was all it took for the Ravenclaw to lift his chin and meet Tom’s eyes.
This Ravenclaw, Tom realized, had eyes as blindingly green as the Killing Curse.

Summary
When Azula is nine, she becomes an only child. She hears the Fire Lord call for Zuko's life, and in the morning, her mother and brother are gone. Azula may be young, but she isn't naive. She knows what happened to them.
Which makes it all the more surprising when Azula tracks the Avatar down and fights his group of peasant friends, only to find herself staring into an eerily familiar face.
