Pairing: Kairi/Sora/Riku
Chapters: 1-10

Kairi, Sora, and Riku are Heroes working under the auspices of The Defenders of the Light. The organization is ostensibly dedicated to fighting threats both mundane and extraordinary, as well as scientific research into the superhero phenomenon. In practice, it’s also devoted to marketing, with the Heroes it employs becoming some of the world’s biggest celebrities, and their battles a form of entertainment. As the organization teases a new conflict, one that could be especially dangerous for Riku, and corporate control tightens, Kairi has to face the realization that her employers do not have her best interests - or those of the world - at heart.

All she knows is that when war continues without an end in sight, no one really wins.
or: the post-KH3 AU where Aqua chooses Olette as her apprentice, and only Roxas was Surprised.
