~ Hallow Bastion ~

"What do you think happened?" Jafar asked as he walked along side of Maleficent. They had saw a flash of light appear in the sky. As they made their way to the rising falls they were shocked what awaited them.

"A boy..." He said as he looked down at him. He was dressed in a yellow shirt wearing blue jeans. Suddenly the boy started to wake up.

"Go...I'll handle this." Maleficent said as Jafar disappeared suddenly. The boy looked around slightly dazed and confused.

"Where...Where am I? " He asked as he looked up and he saw Maleficent. Maleficent smiled as she looked at him.

"You're at the castle of Hallow Bastion..." She said as she helped him up. "Do you remember anything?" The boy looked at her and nodded.

"Yeah I was...I was being surrounded by darkness and then I woke up here." He said as he looked up at Maleficent.

"Do you remember anything about yourself?" Maleficent asked as she watched him carefully. The boy looked at her and nodded.

"Yes...My name is Riku...and I came here from...the islands...what happened to them...wheres Sora...and Kairi." Riku asked in a panic as he looked around. Maleficent looked at Riku and motioned for him to follow her.

"I'm not sure what has become of your world or your friends but I would be more than willing to help you child." Maleficent said as she placed a hand on Riku's shoulder. Riku looked at Maleficent and nodded.

"Thank you..." He said cautiously. He didn't know whether or not he could trust Maleficent but he also knew that he didn't have much of a choice. Suddenly Jafar appeared next to her.

"You should come to the castle chapel..." He said quietly. Maleficent nodded as she reached out for Riku's hand.

"Come with me, its not safe for you to be alone here." Maleficent said as she opened a portal and she and Riku walked through and arrived in the castle chapel. "Well what is this we have here..." She said as she walked over to the girl laying on the floor.

"What the..." She said as she attempted to get off of the ground. She then quickly fell on her side and noticed Maleficent, Jafar, and Riku. "Who are you people?" She asked in a perplexed tone her eyes locking on Riku. Riku looked at her strangely and then Maleficent walked up to her and helped her up.

"My name is Maleficent...what are you doing here." She asked in a harsh tone as she looked at the girl.

"I don't know...there was just a flash and..." She paused as a thought came over her. "Wait where am I...my home...it was being torn apart..." She said as she looked at Maleficent. Maleficent eased up as she felt a strange power radiating from the girl as she thought about this she quickly let out a sigh and looked in between her and Riku and smiled.

"How about you and Riku go and talk with one another and see what you both can put together from your situations...I have some matters that need my attention. I will try to be back as soon as possible." She said as she started walking. "If you follow me I'll show you to one of the kitchenette's." Riku looked at the strange girl and nodded.

Riku watched the girl as she filled two glasses with water and sat down in a stool. "You're a little calm aren't you?" The girl looked at him and took a sip of her water.

"Oh? Am I? And tell me how exactly am I supposed to be reacting?" She said as she sat down next to him. Riku watched her carefully and then looked at her.

"I don't know maybe you're right...but" He paused as she handed him the other glass. " Aren't you even a slightest bit concerned?" Riku said as he took the glass and took a sip.

"Hey now don't take my thirst for a lack of concern..." She paused as a serious look came on her face. "But yes I am concerned...deeply, things like that just don't happen..." She said as she looked out at the hallway.

"Hey, wh-whats your name?" Riku asked as he watched her carefully. She looked at him and a slight smile appeared on her face.

"Semirina..." She said as she watched him "Perhaps maybe w-" Semirina was interupted by Maleficent walking in.

"Both of you are children of lost worlds..." Maleficent said as she watched them both carefully. Riku and Semirina looked at each other and nodded. "And you Riku you've lost your friends as well haven't you?" She asked as she turned her attention to Riku.

''Yeah.." She looked between them both and she tried to hide the smirk as an idea hatched in her mind.

"Perhaps you both can work together... to find out the truth." She said as she walked toward them. Riku looked at Semirina and they both nodded.

"Give us some time to think this over..." Riku said as stared at Maleficent.

'I understand and remember I will offer you any assistance you may need...Also, my home is your home while you think things over..." Maleficent said with a smirk as she turned around. 'I'll give you two a few days to think it over." As she walked away Riku looked at Semirina.

"Give me some time to think.'

" I understand...I'll be hearing from you soon." As she said this Riku walked out into the hallway and let out a sigh.
