I won't hear the empty sounds Affiliation: Trainer
Personality: Zack is a boy training to be a hero at the Olympus Coliseum, because of this is he is very dedicated to his training and goals. He is hardworking but he always has a smile on his face. Nothing really seems to faze him and he is a good sport about losing as seen when he lost to Aqua in the match and lost his "spot" at becoming Phil's trainee. He simply smiled and said he needed to work harder if he wanted to become a hero. Because of his good natured attitude, he makes friends easily. It's easy to see it's, well, easy for him to befriend just about anybody. Hercules, Aqua, Terra, Ventus, and even Phil.
But like anyone in Kingdom Hearts, everyone has darkness residing in their hearts. Including someone like Zack. Unfortunately, he easily fell prey to Hades, letting him exploit the darkness within with the assurance of winning. Zack can be a little gullible in regards to this, but he really only has the best intentions in the end. He berated himself for letting Hades control him like that, learned his lesson easily and it only made him determined to work harder to reach his goals.
Zack can also be a bit o a flirt as seen when, despite losing to Aqua, he promptly asked her out of a date. Whether this is actually a small crush or not is debatable, but one thing is for sure. it, again, made him more determined to be a hero because once he does so, he is going to ask Aqua out on a date. He's got a one-track when it comes to this. She made no promises but he didn't listen, once his goal is set, he will attain it. To be a hero, ask the pretty girl out, and make friends. Zack's life couldn't be simpler (or more complicated?) than anyone else's in all of Greece. But that's what makes him so lovable. He's caring, cheerful, and willing to do anything for his friends and he makes friends easily.
Strengths/Weaknesses: Zack's strength lies in his enthusiasm, determination, and skills. He always has a smile on his face with everything he does and he is determined to finish whatever task has been given to him, no matter what. Because of this, despite his young age, he is a formidable fighter. Of course, he still needs work as Aqua and Terra defeated him, not that he minds. It just means he needs to work harder! And he will do so with, again, a smile on his face.
His weakness lies in that because his heart is so very open to others, he can and has been taken advantage of. There is darkness in every heart, his is no exception. Hades took advantage of that, promising him the winnings of the Games in order to control Zack until Terra defeated him.

Samples
First Person Sample: Wha-hey, where did the stadium go? Hellooooo! Phil!? Herc?!
...Ven? Aqua? Terra?
Ooookay, no one can hear me. Great. Hm. [chinscratch] I don't have my sword, I'm in a place I don't recognize, and some lady said she was my mom. Yup, I'm dreamin'. That's the only explanation.
Pretty vivid, if you ask me. I didn't think I'd see so many trees before and-!
SCYTHER!
[cue flailing and reaching for a sword that isn't there]
A monster?! Aw man, gimme a break!
Third Person Sample: Several hours after that encounter with the monster, Zack was making his way out of New Bark Town, the monster right behind him. It took a lot of explanation from the townsfolk but Zack got it soon enough. The monster was called a Pokemon and its name was Scyther. It apparently belonged to him. Zack was a trainer (which was weird, wasn't he suppose to be a trainee?) who was suppose to train it to be stronger, fight Gyms, earn badges and be number one. But how did being a Pokemon trainer make him a hero?! This was just no good. Besides, he wasn't finished with his own training, how would he train this thing?
"Looks like you and I are gonna have to tough it out together, huh?" Zack said to the Pokemon behind him. Really, the thing was actually really cool looking now that he thought about it. "Look, I don't exactly see myself as a trainer as I'm still training myself. How about we consider ourselves both trainees and work together?"
The Scyther raised his sickle like arm in agreement, nodding. Zack smiled and gave him a thumbs up. "Alright!"
Now, to figure out this battle thing. He wasn't allowed to fight, but the Scyther could. Not to mention he was suppose to catch more of them and train them as well. "Man, this is gonna be harder than I thought," He scratched the back of his head. But then, he smiled. "Well, time to get started! The sooner I get the hang of this, the sooner we get stronger! Let's go, Green!"
Zack grinned and began to run. The grass was where the battles began, right? Well, no better time to start than the present. And who knows, maybe his friends did make it here. All he needed to do was look. Besides, there had to be plenty of other trainers out there to get along with. Maybe this whole thing won't be so bad, right?
QUESTION: Will Zack be allowed to remember his previous stay?
