Sealed fate
Chapter 1
Recalled and rebirth
(Yeah, this is my newest story. It's a crossover between Kingdom Hearts and Yu-Gi-Oh! Basically, Riku gets sent into the Yu-Gi-Oh world. Basically it's going to start a few weeks before the first season, to give Riku a chance to become friends with Yugi and the gang, and then keep going until at lest the end of the Awakening the Dragons arc. (That's season 4 right?) I'm going to say this right now, I am basing this off the TV show, and so what I do may not follow the rules of the real card game. Also, to make things seem a little more Kingdom Hearts like, I'm going to have to make up some cards. Also, because I don't want to have to write 50,000 pages to cover every battle Yugi and the other characters form Yu-Gi-Oh have, I am going to skip some of the less important battles. Now, with that out if the way, enjoy the story.)
Start chapter
"Sora, would you stop pacing! It's starting to get really old." Riku said as he watched his younger friend pace back and forth. "I can't help it, they're really late." Sora said back, before returning to his pacing. Riku sighed, before he pushed of the tree he had been using for shade, and walked a short distance towards the edge of the beach they were on.
It was strange, the last time Riku had been to this side of the island, he had been helping Sora and Kairi build the raft. (Okay, in reality Riku had done most of the work, but still, when he wasn't taking naps or having a sparing match with Tidus, Sora had helped out.) And now here he was again, only this time, he was waiting for someone to show up in a Gummi ship to take the three of them to Disney Castle.
This had all started when Kairi had run up to Riku and Sora, holding a bottle that held a letter from the King. While at first Riku had thought that it would say something like there was some new evil force that wanted to destroy the worlds, those fears were put to rest once he read the letter. It read:
Hi-a Sora, Kairi, Riku how's it going? I'm sure that you probably think something's wrong, so let me tell you right now that isn't the case. In fact what I have to tell you is really good news. But, I don't want to tell ya in the letter, in case whoever reading this isn't Sora, Riku, or Kairi. So, Cid and the others for Radiant Garden well be by in three days, around three o-clock to pick you guys up. See ya soon, King Mickey.
So here they were, waiting for Cid and the others to show up. However, by now it was almost four-thirty, and still no sign of them. This had started to annoy Riku to no end. He wasn't used to having to wait for someone to show up and give him a ride. It would seem that being able to use a dark portal for over six months kind of turns you off of having to wait for someone.
"All right! Here they come now!" Sora yelled out as he spotted a rather large Gummi ship start to descend to the beach. The Gummi ship was painted a dark blue color, and was clearly made for a lot of people. It was also loaded with enough weapons to fight off an entire Heartless armada. Once the ship touched down on the beach, the door flew open and out stepped several familiar looking people.
"Hey, Leon, Aerith, Yuffie!" Sora yelled as he ran towards the three Radiant Garden residents. As Riku walked after Sora and Kairi, (who had taken off running after Sora,) he noticed that two more people were standing just inside the door of the Gummi ship. Okay, so he really couldn't see them, but he could tell that two people were there. By the time Riku had caught up with Sora and the others, they were already talking, asking Kairi what shed been up to since the last time they saw her, and other things along that line. Seeing as who there was little chance they would stop talking any time soon, Riku decided to just go ahead and enter the Gummi ship.
"So, I'm guessing that the two of you are friends with Sora?" Riku said as he walked through the door. As Riku looked over his left shoulder, he saw two people standing by the wall, in such a way that you wouldn't see them when you first walked in the ship. There was a man, and a woman, both in all black clothes. The guy had gravity defying blond spiked hair. And the woman had long brown hair.
The woman look a little stunned that Riku had known they were there, but she quickly recovered. "Uh, yeah were friends with Sora. Anyway, I'm Tifa, and this is Cloud." Cloud gave a slight nod of his head, but still didn't say anything. Before Riku could say anything back, everyone that had been talking outside, came barging through the door.
Sora, seeing Riku looking at something, turned to look that same direction. "Cloud! Tifa! You guys are here too?" Sora yelled out with wide eyes. Riku mentally groaned as the whole interdiction process began again. He had already meet Leon, Aerith, and Yuffie before, (they had given the King, Donald, Goofy, and Kairi a lift to Destiny Island,) and he had just meet Cloud and Tifa. But Kairi hadn't meet Cloud or Tifa. And Kairi had a habit of somehow getting people to tell their inter life story as soon as she meet them.
However Kairi never got the chance to get the life story out of Cloud or Tifa, because as soon as the Gummi ship door closed, the recognizable voice of Cid flooded the ship. "Alright, now that ya'll are on board, we can make tracks for Disney Castle." Almost as soon as Riku heard those words, the Gummi ship lurched forwards, building up enough speed to break free of the world gravitational pull.
"All right! Next stop, Disney Castle!" Sora yelled as he took a random seat in the room. Riku gave a slight laugh at his younger friends excitement, before making his way over to a seat near Sora. Taking a seat, Riku leaned his head back, seeing that it would probably be best to take a nap during the ride.

Riku was jolted awake when the Gummi ship touched ground. Looking around, he realized that they had arrived at Disney Castle. He must have been asleep for about two hours. Rubbing the sleep out of his eyes, Riku quickly garbed his backpack off the floor, and followed the others out of the ship. Once the group was in the hanger, Riku heard a very familiar sounding voice cut through the air.
"Hey everybody, over hear!" The recognizable voice of Donald rang out as he, along with Goofy, came running towards the Gummi hanger. Sora immediately ran over to greet his friends. After they three of them had hugged, (which resulted with all three of them falling to the ground,) Donald and Goofy started to lead everyone to the Library.
Once in the Library, they group saw that king Mickey and queen Minnie were already there, along with the old wizards Yen Sid, and Merlin. Now while Mickey had said that this was good news, Riku couldn't help but feel a little nervous. After all, it had to be pretty big news to have Cid and the others fly Riku, Sora, and Kairi all the way to Disney Castle.
Once everyone was in side the Library, the king steeped forwards with a smile on his face. "Hey there everybody, I'm sure that your wondering why I called you all here, so I'll get right to the point. Sora, I'm sure by now you know that the Keyblade you have, the Kingdom Key, isn't like the other Keyblades you've used before." The small mouse king said while looking at the fifteen year old Key bearer.
"Yeah, the other Keychains I've used before are always the same strength as before. But with the Kingdom Key, it seems like it keeps getting stronger." Sora said, having already held out his hand and summoned his key-shaped blade.
"You've got it. The Kingdom Key is one of three special Keyblades that were created almost two thousand years ago. The other two are Riku's Way to the Dawn, and my very own Key of Kingdoms. There special because they grow stronger as the holder of the blade grows stronger." Mickey said as he and Riku summoned their own blades.
"Now they Keyblades were created because at the time there was a great war going on. Solders for the realm of darkness had invaded the realm of light. And because of that, the Keyblades were created to help fight off the dark army. However, it didn't take long before the forces of darkness were able to copy the design of the Keyblades."
The king paused to take a deep breath before continuing. "So, three royal families took it upon themselves to make three Keyblades that were stronger then all others. Those families were my own family, the Uchiha's, Riku's family, and the Hikari's, Sora's family. They worked long and hard, and after three years, they had finally finished making the Keyblades."
"It was then the war started to turn. The army of light was able to push the army of darkness back into the realm of darkness. Anyway, the bottom line is that the army of darkness was sealed back in the dark realm. But, you see, because of the huge amount of energy it took to seal them away, all three Keyblades were rendered useless. So, each family hid their Keyblade, and then put a magic spell they would keep it sealed for two thousand years." Mickey said as he continued his story.
"Sora, Riku, each of our families is different in the way we use the Keyblades. The Uchiha's grow strong very fast, and at a young age. But once that's over, they learn skills much slower. The Hikari's start off pretty weak, no offences Sora, but then after a while they get strong really, really fast. And my own family grows powerful at the same speed their whole life." The small mouse king said.
"The reason I'm telling you this is so you'll understand a little better what happened in the past. If you recall Sora, Riku was the first one that was going to wield the Kingdom Key. However, when Xehanort's Heartless was able to convince Riku to use the power of darkness, you got the Keyblade. Now this happened because, since Riku is a Uchiha, he grew strong faster then you, so when your Keyblade awoke, it went to the strongest person of our three families that didn't already have a Keyblade. Since I had already found my Keyblade, yours went to Riku because, at the time, he was stronger then you. Once he fell to darkness, the Keyblade went to you because you were the only one of your family strong enough to use it. And over time your heart grew strong enough that you kept it, even after Riku was no longer under the control of darkness." Mickey said as he started pacing back and forth in the room, Keyblade still in hand. (In fact, now he was swinging it around as he talked, trying to make some kind of point with it.)
"But, I've gotten off the subject of why I called you here. Basically, the Hikari's are the direct decedents of a royal bloodline. Now this is where things get interesting Sora. You see, five thousand years ago every world in the galaxy was joined together as one giant world. But there was a war, a war that had a battle so powerful that the one giant world was split apart. As the worlds scattered, the Hikari family, who was at that time the ruler of a very large kingdom, cast a powerful spell on the scattered pieces of the world. The spell that was cast protected the smaller parts of the world from being destroyed. The spell also sealed away the part of the planet that caused the world to split apart in the first place." The small mouse king said.
"You see, Kai, the member of the Hikari family that was king at the time, sealed away one part of the world in a different dimension. He did this because he feared that if he didn't, that the power that once caused that world to split apart might destroy every part of the world that had broken apart. Anyway, once that evil force was sealed away, Kai begin to try and rebuild his kingdom." Mickey said as he continued to swing his Keyblade around, trying to make a point with it or something.
"While Kai was never able to restore his Kingdom fully, he was able to gather several small pieces. However, he was able to find someone that would continue to help the Hikari family restore a little more of the original world over the years. His name was Zen Uchiha. Together, the two families started to try and make a small piece of what their home had been like. Both families stayed friends over the thousands of years, while after a while they stopped trying to rebuild their home world."
"Now that I've got all that out of the way, I can finally tell you why your hear. A few days after I got back home after our little adventure, I found something very interesting in the old library under the castle. It would seem that the members of the Hikari family that made the Kingdom Key also wanted to restore the worlds to the way they once were, not including the world that was sealed away. Anyway, once this happens, the world is going to need a ruler that they all know and trust. And Sora, most of the major worlds know you, and seeing as how you are form and ancient royal bloodline, everyone here agrees that it should be you that we make king." The small mouse said with a huge grin.
It took a few minutes of complete and utter silence for everything to sink in, but once it did… "WHAT! I can't run a super sized world, I couldn't even run the blitz ball team at school! I don't know the first thing about being a king! Everyone will revolt and I'll be hung from a flagpole! I don't want to die I'm too young!" Sora yelled, as he seemed to be doing a mix between run in a circle, and trying to beat his head into the wall.
"Hold it Sora! We aren't just going to gather everyone together and say that your then new king, that's a good way to start a huge war. First we have to gather representatives form every world. Then we have to give them the history of what happened, and then see if their interested in reuniting the worlds. This will take several years to complete, and then we would have to use the magic spell to bring the worlds back together. So while Donald, Goofy, and I start talking to the people of other worlds, you'll be learning how to be king." Mickey said as he tried to stop Sora from somehow killing himself form the shock.
"That's right. While king Mickey starts the negotiations with other worlds, Yen Sid, and Merlin can teach you how to act like a king, along with the history of your family and the world." Aerith said, seeing as how Sora hadn't calmed down from Mickey's explanation. That seemed to work, for Sora stopped running around like a possessed man, and finally stood still.
"Well, I know this must be a shock for all of you, so maybe seeing something familiar will help out a little." Leon said as he reached into the duffle bag he had been carrying, and pulled out a total of what looked like seven decks of cards still in their cases, and a small picture. "We found these in the castle back home, and with the picture and everything, thought they might be yours." Leon said as he handed to items to Sora, Riku, and Kairi.
The picture was that of a nine year old Riku, and eight year old Kairi and Sora. The three of them were standing on the beach back home, the same one were they had been waiting for Cid and the others to show up for their ride. Sora and Riku had their old wooden swords in hand, and Kairi was standing between them, holding her star shaped lucky charm.
As for the decks of cards, Riku quickly grabbed one of them and opened it. As he pulled the deck out, he saw that the top card had the picture of a man in purple armor, and a pointed hat, holding a long staff with a green orb at the end. Under the picture was the name "Dark Magician." Then under the name it had two sets of numbers, one on the left, and one on the right. The set of numbers on the left were "2,500," and then had the words "attack points" written by it. The right set of numbers were "2,100," and had "defense points" written by it.
"Sora, Kairi, I think that these are our old Duel Monster Decks." Riku said as he started looking through the other cards in the deck he had taken out. "This is my old warrior and spell caster deck!" Riku said as he kept seeing familiar looking cards. This caused Sora to grab one of the decks and start going through it. After looking over the deck for about ten seconds, Sora handed it to Kairi. "Here's your angle deck Kairi." Sora said as he grabbed another deck from the pile.
However, by now Riku had already looked over two more decks, and had placed one of them in his pocket, along with his warrior and spell caster deck. Once he had pulled his hands out of his pocket, Riku tossed the other deck he had looked through to Sora, saying, "Hey Sora, here's your dragon deck." Sora quickly caught the deck, and started to quickly look through it, before putting in the pouch he kept on his belt.
Once Sora had grabbed another deck, he could tell right away what one it was. The first monster he saw was what looked to be a knight in battered silver armor. The knight had a tattered red cape behind him, and a rather large sword in his hands. The one thing that most would consider weird was that he didn't have a head. However, you would soon understand once you looked at the monster's name, "Headless Knight."
"Yo Riku, I got your zombie deck." Sora said as he handed the deck to his friend. In return, Riku handed a deck to Sora. "And I've got your defender deck." Riku said as he took his zombie deck from Sora, and handed Sora the defender deck. "I never understand why you two each built three decks. I only have one, and I still win just as many times as you two." Kairi said as she walked up to both teens.
"That's a easy one, with three decks we can change are strategy quickly. And as an added bonus, people can't just plan for your strategy if they don't know what deck your going to use." Sora said as he began looking through the deck Riku had just handed him. "I thought you guys would like to have your stuff back." Leon said as he watched the three teens go through their cards.
"Now, if you three will follow me, I'll show you were your going to be staying for now…"

Riku leaned against the window of the Gummi ship, watching the vast reaches of space go by. It had been two weeks since Riku, Sora and Kairi had arrived at Disney Castle, and in that time Sora had been put through a lot of "how to be royalty" classes. Riku found it funny, that the guy who could get an F in almost every class at school, was now being trained to be a king. Sora. A king? That just didn't sound right. This was the same guy who had somehow lead the school blitz ball team to score in their own goal, and now he was going to rule a super sized world. The way Riku saw it the world was doomed.
"Maybe the mission will get my mind off of Sora somehow destroying the world." Riku thought as the Gummi ship touched down in the Radiant Garden hanger. Yen Sid had asked Riku to go back to Radiant Garden with Leon and the other restoration committee members, saying something about a dark user that was there. And seeing as how Sora was getting a history lesson from Merlin, Kairi was still learning how to use her Keyblade and magic, and Mickey, Donald, and Goofy were all out on diplomatic missions, Riku was the only one left that could use a Keyblade.
Once Riku was out of the ship, Leon spoke up. "Come on, the dark user should be in the dark depths." The Gunblade wielder said before walking off, Aerith, and Yuffie following behind. (Since Cloud and Tifa had stayed behind at Disney Castle.) As Riku followed them through town, he noticed that the town was continuing to rebuild. It took about ten minutes to make it all the way down to the Dark Depths.
Once in the Dark Depths, Riku spoke up. "So where's this dark user you told me about?" Riku asked as he looked around the area, but still couldn't find any darkness controlling people. "I'm afraid that you're the dark user." Came a voice behind him. Spinning around, Riku found Yen Sid standing there, arms crossed. Riku also noticed that Leon had taken out his Gunblade, Yuffie her giant ninja star, and Aerith her magic staff.
"You see, before Sora can lead us into the great kingdom of light, we must first get rid of the darkness. And you are a impure mix of light with the wrenched darkness." Yen Sid said as he took out a small magic wand. Before Riku could say anything, Leon struck with his Gunblade.
Riku instantly summoned his Keyblade to block the attack, but then had to jump out of the way as Aerith attacked with a laser precise lightning spell. As Riku rolled on the ground, he had to block Yuffie's oversized star with a dark shield spell, before jumping back to his feet. As Riku rushed in to attack Leon, thinking that it would be best to remove the only other sword user first, something strange happened. One minute Riku was inches from attacking Leon, the next Leon was standing behind him.
Then Riku felt the pain. It HURT! Dropping to his knees, Riku saw that he had been slashed across the torso, a deep gash going from right shoulder to his left hip. Looking up, Riku saw that Yen Sid was smiling. A high level time spell. That must have been what happened. And Yen Sid must have cast it, or it wouldn't have had any effect on Riku.
"Know this, I would like to kill you, to remove you from this life, but I can not. Your Keyblade would save you, and not even my magic would be able to stop it. But I cannot let you remain in this world, for you would stop Sora form becoming the king he was meant to be. But I have a better idea; you are going to be sealed away in the same world that Sora ancestor sealed away so many years ago. Now dark one, be gone." Yen Sid said as he raised his wand and said something that sounded like Latin. There was a flash of light and Riku blacked out.

Riku ground as he pushed himself off the ground. Checking the wound on his torso, he found something strange; while the tear in his shirt was still there, the wound it's self had seemingly healed. Odd, but still stranger thing had happened to him. Looking around for any sign of were he was, Riku found what he was looking for in a large road sign.
"Welcome to Domino City!"
End chapter.
Okay, first chapter done. I'm going to try and make every chapter at lest 4,000 word long. (Which is twice as long as the chapters in my old story.) Now to clear some things up. I called Riku an Uchiha because, lets face it, and he acts very similar to a few Uchiha family members for Naruto. Plus, I needed Riku's and Sora's last name, and they don't have one. (For anyone who doesn't know, Hikari means "light" in Japanese.)
Seeing as how I like to make almost unrealistic crack pairings, such as Riku x Azula, along with a few others I haven't even written about, this story is going to have one of those uber crossover crack pairings. So basically its going to be a Riku x Serenity (aka Joey's little sister.) I don't know how old Serenity is supposed to be in the show, but lets just say she's fifteen. One question though, what is the timeline supposed to be in the show? (It seems like it goes straight from one season to another, but in the last couple episodes you have Isis saying that she hasn't had a vision in years, but she just gave her Millennium necklace to Yugi at the battle city tournament. So unless the seasons take about a year each, that doesn't make since.)
