A Kingdom Hearts Fanfiction
Chapter one: The beginningThis is how it is: there was a poor man, handsome, good at cards, polite, British.

He would find another apartment in another town. He would weasel his way into their trust with his polite manor and fake British humor, and then he would cheat them and run.
