star7crystal 18 Posted May 1, 2013 Hi everyone! This is my first ever post and ironically, my first ever Translation. Sorry for any mistakes but I tried my best to make it sound authentic in English (English is my mother tounge). This is also on my LiveJournal account of the same name. I'm working on Episode 2 and will post (if this one isn't taken down! ) somewhere on KH13 and on my LiveJournal. Kingdom Hearts 2 “Other Diamonds” Short Stories Episode 1: Nothing But BlueTHIS STORY IS FINISHED.I TRANSLATED THE EPISODE FROM THE OFFICIAL Kingdom Hearts II NOVEL OTHER DIAMONDS WHICH I FOUND ON: http://neriede.tumblr.com/post/28129735302/kingdom-hearts-novel-transcripts-master-post , I DID NOT WRITE THIS. IT IS OFFICIAL.THIS IS NOT A LITERAL/ OFFICIAL TRANSLATION WORD-FOR-WORD. THIS IS SO THAT ENGLISH SPEAKING PEOPLE CAN ENJOY THE WORK HOW IT WOULD SOUND IF IT WERE TRANSLATED OFFICIALLY. Please enjoy!-star7crystal =^..^=PLEASE FEEL FREE TO REPOST AND CRITICISE.Kingdom Hearts II Short Stories Vol 1 Other Diamonds Episode 1 Nothing But Blue English Translation<SPOILERS WARNING> This story is set at the very end of Kingdom Hearts II, don't read it if you haven't finished the game.It is written from King Mickey Mouse’s point of view:The new journey may surprisingly be easy. It might have already begun.The setting sun, sinking into the ocean of Destiny Island.I looked into the ocean next to Kairi.Goofy and Donald also stared into the sea quietly behind us.Between day and night, between light and darkness - - Twilight creates a world of deep blue, in the elongated light of the sunlight. Beautiful, pale and hazy between the sea and sky.I travelled around the world, but even so I had never seen the sun and sea so clean.A special world; Destiny Island - this world. I wondered.After all - one of the Princesses. It’s where Kairi arrived.I felt like it was a long time ago to the day when I went out on a journey in search of the seven Princesses. No, it was days before, I met with the Ansem for the first time before that - I wonder was it really years ago? The date of that trip?If you view each world respectively, there is a place separate from even the flow of time and space. The worlds dot the sea of the abnormal sky. The truth was, I thought I finally found it, travelling such a world, it was not true. I do not know yet the reason for existence of the world.Ansem the Wise I wonder did you already understand that of the world?Keyblade and mind with the world.Hearts become greater - Kingdom Hearts.Intent I wonder if there is something in Kingdom Hearts?Once that’s the case, what do you want Kingdom Hearts to be for us?I stand towards the ocean, staring at Kairis profile. In partnership with us, Kairi is still looking at the sea. “It could happen” I said."King ......" Kairi gave a small nod and called out.Goofy and Donald Duck exchange a look.Riku and Sora aren’t back yet.But I believe.I believe, that you guys, defeated Xemnas, and will come back home to this island."Look at that-" Kairi murmured, I looked up. Two lights streamed through the sky then.As if they had totally completed the journey, glowing the two dived into the sea.Facing them, Donald and Goofy jumped up and ran to where the two stars fell."Sora! Riku!"Kairi rushed to the water's edge, I waved my hand. It was the sight of Riku and Sora that made Kairi smile.I could not wait anymore. I took off running with Goofy and Donald – Soras treasured friends.And, I jumped straight into Riku."Riku!""King"Oh, it was good. It was really nice.I promised in Castle Oblivion, You always said to go away.That promise ends forever, from now on.And then-"I'm home"I laughed at Sora so shy."Welcome back". Kairi reached out to Sora, Sora took her hand tight. I looked up at Riku staring at the two. I spoke out "Welcome back, Riku".Riku put on a smile to those words."I'm home, Your majesty "The sound of the waves. The blinking of the stars .And staring at the horizon, Riku and I were seated side by side. Donald, Kairi and Sora are meeting and talking noisily about something or other that has happened in the past."It was good what you and Sora did together, Riku". After a sigh, showing such peace of mind, I murmured.“I didn’t exactly do the same as them though, Don’t so easily say something that I did that sounds so similar to what they did”And gazing at me, in response Riku laughed."I mean - "I looked down.The first time after you closed the door to darkness. The second time when you left Castle Oblivion, you were walking through corridor of the darkness.I became separated from Riku twice.“I ran away only to escape what I had King”To remove the downcast gaze that I had, Riku stared into the horizon again.“To imagine you ran away like that, those words aren’t good Riku, the path you chose to take was different. Isn’t that right?"His response was "whatever". Riku smiled in a self-contained way.I thought to myself, Riku has become an adult since the time I met Riku for the first time.Ansem and Malificent. Much more powerful together, with the cover of the great darkness, Riku was in the center of that darkness. However he didn’t quit pursuing the light. The strength of Riku did it. Even while being misled by the darkness, he was not able to give up the light. Perhaps because the light pointed to the place it always was inside him."I'm talking about what the two of you did together!"Sora came running trying to interrupt Riku and me, stumbled on something and ended up landing face down, directly on the sand.Goofy asked Sora “What am I going to do with you?”Sora replied “It’s not funny!”Sora tried to get up. However, Donald and Goofy jumped on his back in succession.“Group pile!”“A-hyuck!”"ack! "Sora was pushed down beneath Goofy and Donald and collapsed onto the beach on his face once again."Heavy!""Oh, I was wrong. Hey, how can we talk about things changing, looking at Sora for example King?” Riku commented, causing Goofy to laugh."You’re horrible!"Donald jumped up from on top of Sora."Were you really talking about that King?" Goofy asked leisurely.“Come on, How did the conversation go?” Sora asked. I helped Sora up at last."You’re definitely clumsy enough to not sound like a hero who saved the world with these three" Kairi who was approaching fast, said with a laugh.“Hey! Kairi!”They laughed together as Sora, complained about the sand that covered him.Under the stars, the sandy beach near the sea.There was hours now to spend on this island, listening to the sound of the waves. The fact that Sora and his team were fighting against Xemnas just earlier seemed far away. Xemnas was no more. The world was saved now Kairi. Like I said.Is it REALLY true?Did I really save the world for good?I thought about it and wasn’t sure.But surely Riku will be all right—If Sora is there .It’s all right if his friends are there, Riku and Sora.“Hey, I’m hungry!” Goofy said.“Me too” Sora yelled and looked up at Goofy.“It looks like Sora’s only worry is that he’s hungry now” I said to Riku who looked surprised at him.“Are there no yummy things on Destiny Island?” Donald asked.“I wonder…… Do you want to eat the Paopu fruit?”Kairi looked back at Sora as she said it.“That would be great”“I’ll have one too” said Riku.Kairi nodded and he started walking."We'll go too!"Donald and Goofy followed suit leaving Sora and Kairi, I too chased after them.The setting sun shone down on everyone. 1 Handsome_the_Wise reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
