Here we go! The beginning of Part II!

Matt learned quickly that piloting the second gummi ship was a lot more fun than it looked. After learning the controls with Stitch and Pikachu's help, they were finally beginning to travel.

"Wow!" Matt said in amazement. It was like they were traveling through space and time itself. "This is…amazing…I had no idea…"

Unfortunately, Matt also made a startling discovery from what he saw, as did his new friends. "Oh no!" Stitch and Pikachu gasped. There was only one world other than the one they had just come out of. Neither Disney Castle nor Matt's world were visible.

"What happened?" Matt said. "Where are all the worlds? Where's my world?"

"Uh oh!" Stitch screamed. "Theysa disappeared!"

"They were all just here a minute ago!" Pikachu added. He sighed. "What are we gonna do?"

Matt couldn't believe it. He couldn't go back to his own world even if he wanted to now…

"Wesa go to that world?" Stitch asked. He pointed to one in particular that was sitting about 500 feet in front of the ship. It looked like it had a radiance to it, including a town and a castle.

"Well, we can't go backwards," Matt said.

"Let's go forward, then," Pikachu said. "What is that world anyway?"

"Hmm," Matt said. "According to the readings, it says 'Radiant Garden'. I remember that one from the games. Let's check it out!"

When they finally landed in the Radiant Garden, Matt and his friends beamed into the center of the town.

"Hm...I wonder why this was the only world that's available right now," Matt said.

"Who knows?" Pikachu asked with a shrug.

"Where wesa go?" Stitch then asked. He scratched his head in confusion.

"That's a good question," Matt replied.

Before he could answer though, a wave of Nobodies and Heartless appeared out of nowhere. They surrounded the trio before they knew it.

Matt grunted and summoned his Keyblade with a flash. "Guess we fight now and talk later."

Matt, Stitch, and Pikachu fought off the large wave for several minutes. Their attacks proved quite affective for the most part. They also tried to help any of the bystanders being attacked.

After a few minutes of rough fighting, a helping hand soon came about and slashed away four Heartless at once.

"Whoa," Matt exclaimed. "Who are you?"

A young man with a long sword and a scar on his face beckoned the trio. He had long brown hair and what looked like a bluish jacket on. "The name's Leon. Follow me. There's no time to explain."

The trio looked at each other and agreed that he was trustworthy. With Leon's help, they managed to fight off the rest of the enemies in their path before being led to one of the houses.

"Come on in," Leon said. "We'll be safe in here for now." Matt, Stitch, and Pikachu walked in and saw what looked like a standard HQ. There was a large computer in the middle of the room along with several shelves lined with tons of books. A group of others then came forward.

"It's about time they got here," said an old man with blonde hair. He also wore goggles around his forehead and had a toothpick hanging from his mouth. "We got all sorts of trouble without them getting hurt too."

"Are these the new guys, Leon?" a young girl asked. She wore clothing that reminded Matt of ninja attire. She also wore a beaming smile from the moment that Matt and the others entered the room. "I sure haven't seen them before."

Leon nodded and sighed. "Yep, these are them." He turned towards Matt. "So…you are the next chosen one huh?"

Matt nodded. "Well, guess I wouldn't have the Keyblade if I wasn't, can I?"

"No, but it's odd. Still, we've been expecting you three for a little while. The king said you would be arriving some time soon. Would you mind telling us your names?"

"I'm Matt."

"Hiee...my..name...is...Stitch."

"And I'm, Pikachu."

Leon nodded. "Alright...let me be the first to introduce the crew." He pointed to everyone in turn. "You've already met Yuffie and Cid." He then motioned to two other individuals in the room.

"My name is Aerith," said a young woman with a pink and white dress. She had a long brown ponytail as well. "It's so nice to finally meet you all."

"Indeed," added an old man with a long white beard and gold specatcles. "And I am the great and powerful Merlin. One of the greatest sorcerors in all the worlds. Might I say it is an honor to make your aquaintance."

"The pleasure is ours," Matt replied.

"Too bad we've got to cut the introductions short," Leon spoke up. "There's too much trouble right now."

Yuffie nodded. "Yeah, the Heartless and Nobodies are back again. I can't believe it. To make it all worse, Sora and his friends are missing too. This is bad…" She shook her head in anguish.

"We heard about that," Matt said. "I'm looking for my friend, Laura, too. Are there any leads?" Everyone shook their heads no. "Oh...thanks anyway..."

"This new Organization is different," Leon said. "We can't get any new info on Sora or their leader, so the king went to try and find out more."

Merlin spoke next. "Yes, this new enemy is quite different. Nothing we've ever seen before, though they do have some similarites with Organization XIII."

"Well that sucks," Matt said.

"Where is the King by the way?" Pikachu asked. "We haven't seen him in a while."

"We don't know," Yuffie said with a shrug. "We never know."

Matt then had a question of his own. "Actually, there is something I can ask. Why was this the only world uncovered? I thought there were more out there."

"Yeah, we noticed that too," Leon said. "But that's not really important right now. What is important is that you three are here now."

"Glad to be of help," Matt said. "What do you need us for, anyway? Is there something wrong?"

"I'm glad you asked my lad," Merlin stated. "The king asked me a favor when you three arrived."

"What kind of favor?" Pikachu asked with interest.

"You three must see someone immediately," Merlin said. "It is of utmost importance you speak with him as he has the information that you need."

"Who exactly might that be?" Matt asked.

"You'll see for yourself when you get there," Merlin replied. With that, he began to wave his arms.

"See ya later," Yuffie said while waving goodbye.

"Hey! Wait a minute!" Matt, Stitch, and Pikachu put up their hands. Before they knew it, they were off in a cloud of smoke to an unknown destination…

Hmm...I wonder where they're going now. Why is it there's only one place available? Find out next chapter.

Peace out,
