The story centers around viewpoint character and [[Audience Surrogate]] Emily Tennenbaum, an insecure [[Bratty Teenage Daughter]] taking the brunt of puberty and bullying. As a fifteen year old high school student, Emily reacts to her social outcast status by writing [[Escapism|escapist]] [[Self-Insert Fic|Self Insert Fics]] casting herself as Kiko, the [[Relationship Sue|all-special girlfriend]] of Riku. After a barrage of mockery that manages to hit that very soft spot, her day doesn't look it could possibly get any worse...

...except it does. Of course. Given that people aren't keen to read a ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' fanfic where it's just used as a topic of conversation and obsession, she gets unceremoniously tossed into the universe with [[Took a Level In Badass|only just enough levels in badass]] not to be a total [[Damsel in Distress]]. From there, through a combination of prophetic dreams and a protective precognitive ability that does just enough to preserve her life, she finds herself unwittingly drafted into Mickey's army via a [[Super-Hero School|military academy specifically seeking out and training new heroes]]. Thus begins an epic... sort of.

The story has 88 chapters totaling over 450,000 words, with the opening 4 rewritten due to quality concerns. Plans [[All There in the Manual|buried deep on the author's supplemental website]] aim to rewrite earlier chapters up to an unspecified point where "it stops sucking". As such, beginning readers might want to keep in mind that early chapters are a bit rough, but [[It Gets Better]].

* [[It Gets Easier]]: Emily goes from having a minor breakdown from her first hot-blooded, mostly-instinctive kill to not even flinching as she commits a [[Coup De Grace]] on a disarmed mercenary that was talking about his family life and firing at an (apparently) unarmed woman a few times.
