A boy walked down a road, coming back home from school. It was a cold Tuesday afternoon, and the road just so happened to be empty. Suddenly, a soft sound broke the peace. The boy turned around, and saw a black creature with huge yellow eyes. The boy cautiously stepped forward towards the being, but it made no move. The boy thought that it was harmless, so he reached forward to touch it. Before his hand reached the creature, thousands of the same thing sprung from nowhere. The boy screamed, and ran. Tiny beads of sweat started coming down his face as he sprinted as fast as he could. He looked over his shoulder to see the creatures chasing him. He quickened his pace, but soon, he tripped over a rock. He shrieked as the black creatures tackled him, and he watched in horror as a heart shaped thing came out of his chest and flew into the air. Then, everything went black.

Sora ran up to Riku, sitting on a palm tree. They stared into the sunset, remembering their last battle with Organization XIII's leader, Xemnas, which was about a week ago.

"Nothing's changed, huh?" Said Riku

"Nope. Nothing will." Replied Sora, resting against the palm tree as well.

"What a small world." Said Riku.

"But part of one that's much bigger." Said Sora. With nothing else to say, they continued staring into outer space. "Hey Riku." Sora said suddenly. "What do you think it was? The door to light?" Riku chuckled, and hopped off the tree.

"This." He replied, pointing at his chest.

"This?" Sora asked, putting his hand over his heart.

"Yeah." Riku replied. "It's always closer than you think." Sora thought about that, gave him a friendly smile.

"Sora! Riku!" Shouted Kairi, running up to them.

"Hey! What's up?" Asked Sora, looking at the out of breath Kairi.

"Look!" She said holding up a bottle, with a rolled up piece of paper inside, bearing the kings' seal.

"From the king?" Sora exclaimed, snatching the bottle from her hand and unfolding the rolled up paper. It read: Dear Sora, Kairi, and Riku. I fear that Organization XIII is back. Some of the servants reported seeing men in black cloaks in the night. Please come quickly! – King Mickey

"Oh… Shi—damn." Said Sora.

"I think we should get going." Said Kairi.

"Yeah. I think so too." Said Riku.After this, They ran to the place where they kept the Gummi Ship, and got in.

"Ready?" Sora asked.

"Yeah." They both replied.

"Ok… Blast off!" Sora yelled as the Gummi Ship zoomed forward, into space.

"Hmmm… If I remember," Sora muttered to himself. "Disney Castle is this way." Sora turned left, making the ship lurch suddenly.

"Careful!" Exclaimed Kairi, as a world came into view.

"We've arrived!" announced Sora, parking the ship. They exited, and were greeted by Chip and Dale.

"Hey Sora! We're glad you back!" They exclaimed, jumping up and down.

"I glad too." Sora replied.

"Oh my gosh!" Kairi exclaimed. "They're so cute!" She picked up Dale and hugged him.

"Hey let go of me!" Dale yelled.

"Oh Yeah, Kairi, Riku, meet Chip and Dale." Sora said, pointing at the chipmunks.

"Nice to meet you!" said Dale. "But the King needs you right away in the library." Sora, Kairi, and Riku walked through the garden, looking at the scenery. The walked into the library, and found King Mickey, Donald, and Goofy.

"Sora!" Yelled Donald and Goofy together, running up to him and giving him a big hug.

"Grawsh, we missed you Sora!" said Goofy, patting him on the back.

"Yeah, me too!" Said Sora. Everyone in the room greeted each other, and gave each other hugs.

"Now Sora," Mickey began. "I suppose you got my letter?"

"Yeah," said Riku "I wonder what the Organization is up to now."

"That is what we want to know also." Said Mickey. "Are you guys up for another journey?"

"Yes, your majesty!" Sora said.

"Good," said Mickey. "Donald and Goofy will go with you guys, and I'll stay here. I have a lot of catching up to do, especially since I was gone for a year."

"Ok, your majesty." Said Kairi. "Where should we go first then?"

"Hmmm… with the 5 of you, I don't think you'll be defeated very easily, will you?" asked Mickey.

"No, you majesty, I think we could beat any nobody that tries to attack." Said Sora.

"Good, then you won't be too scared at the news." Said Mickey. "I have found out that Organization XIII has gained more members, so it might not be so easy to defeat them."

"No problem, it's only a few more members anyway." Replied Sora.

"Good, well, I think you'd better get going." Said Mickey. "Wish you luck!" They waved good bye, and the 5 friends exited the room, and boarded the ship.

"You guys ready?" asked Sora. "We are headed to the Organization's stronghold, so you have to be prepared." Everyone nodded, and the ship lifted into space. While flying, they talked about what was going on, and they were catching up on things.

"I'm going to propose to Daisy after this journey!" Donald whispered in Sora's ear.

"Congrats!" Sora replied, giving Donald a smile. They continued talking, on and on for about 30 minuets, until they saw it. A world that was just too familiar to Sora.

"The World that Never Was." Riku said. They entered, and landed the ship. As they got out, they saw lots of nobodies, running away from them. Sora ignored them, and made their way towards the castle.

"Nothing's changed," Said Sora. "Same old place." They walked until they was a massive castle in front of them. Suddenly, a voice came out of nowhere.

"Brave Key Blade Masters, Step into the castle."

"I recognize that voice!" Riku exclaimed."

"Xemnas." Said Sora. They cautiously stepped into the castle, and saw nothing. Then, a man in a black cloak teleported in front of them. He revealed his face, and looked Sora straight in the eye.

"Sora," Xemnas said. "Are you surprised to see me?"

"Let's get this over with!" Sora yelled. "Where are your other lackeys?"

"We do not want to fight." Xemnas said calmly. "I just want… To talk."

"Yeah, right!" Sora said. "Just hurry so we can destroy you once and for all!"

"I do not think that would be necessary." Xemnas replied. "Because there is no way that you can defeat us."

"Oh Yeah?" Sora scoffed. "I defeated you last time, didn't I?"

"True, true," Xemnas said. "But, you see, we have gain more members."

"So? We can still defeat all of you!" Sora yelled.

"Oh, really?" Xemnas snapped his fingers, and out came 12 people. They all revealed their faces, and Sora recognized most of them, the only ones that seemed new were 5 of them, a old man with long blond hair, an extremely muscular orange haired man that stuck out, a man with blue hair covering one eye, a pink haired one, and a woman with short blond hair, with two antennae like things sticking out.

"Only 5 new guys?" Sora sneered.

"Of course not. Those five are old members." Xemnas replied.

"Then where are the new ones?" Sora asked.

"Look behind you." Xemnas replied. Sora slowly turned his head, to see not just a few members, but A LOT.

"Sora, meet Organization Infinity." Xemnas said. "159 members in total." Sora looked, terrified, at the number of members. He turned around, and faced Xemnas.

"Ok, what do you want?" Sora asked coldly.

"We need your help." Xemnas replied.

"Help? What help?" Kairi asked.

"We need you to get us some hearts." Xemnas replied.

"Can't you do that yourselves?" asked Goofy

"We could, but there is one problem." Xemnas said. "Do you happen to remember… Ansem the Wise?"

"Yes! We do!" shouted Riku. "What does he have to do with this?"

"He is alive." Xemnas replied.

"No way!" yelled Donald in amazement.

"That's impossible! We saw him die!" Sora said.

"Yes, and I thought that too, until I heard the news." Xemnas replied, calmly.

"News? What news?" Donald asked.

"The Ansem you knew is long gone. He has now gone crazy for revenge against us nobodies."

"And you expect me to believe such a stupid story?" sneered Sora.

"See for yourself." Xemnas said, as he waved his hand, making a little screen pop out in the middle of the air. Sora, and all his friends stared as a familiar man with blond hair and a beard came into view, screaming something about "nobodies will never get their hearts" and "I'll get enough heartless to destroy all nobodies". What was weird was that Ansem seemed to be controlling the heartless.

"T-that's impossible!" yelled Sora. "You're just trying to fool me! All of that is fake!"

"Ansem is currently trying to overtake a world that had nothing to do with this. Are you not going to save its' inhabitants, or are you going to make them suffer?" Xemnas said, ignoring Sora. He opened a portal, and pointed at it.

"This will lead you into the world that is being overrun by Ansem. Go help them, brave Key Blade masters." Sora looked at the portal, and looked back at Xemnas.

"Xemnas… if this is a trap, you'll be sorry." Sora growled. He and his friends stepped slowly into the portal, seeing nothing but blackness for a few seconds. Then blinding light came out of nowhere, making the 5 cover their eyes. They slowly opened their eyes, and saw people walking around what seemed to be a very polluted city.

"Where are we?" asked Riku.

"Like I know?" replied Sora. "Donald and Goofy, have you ever been here?" Sora turned around, to see not Donald or Goofy, but to see two men, standing there.

"Hey! Where did they go?" asked Sora.

"We had to fit in." said the shorter of the two men. "So I change us into humans." Sora stared and the men, and finally understood. Donald transformed himself and Goofy into humans.

"Ok…" muttered Kairi. "Should we ask someone what this place is?"

"Sure." Sora replied, turning to the nearest random person, asking where they were. The person stared at them strangely, and said something to them in an unknown language, then he walked away, shaking his head.

"Ok…" Sora said. "That sure didn't work out. They continued asking and asking people, but they all seemed to not understand. Finally, they gave up, and were about to continue along their way, until they heard a woman's voice.

"Excuse me, are you guys lost." Surprised by the sudden appearance of a person that understood them, Sora stammered: "Err… Yes! I mean no! I mean Yes!" The woman looked rather amused at Sora.

"Is there anything I can do to help you?" She asked.

"Ummm… Yes." Said Kairi. "Do you know what this place is?" The woman laughed at the question.

"You've been staying here, and you don't know what this place is called?" The woman asked.

"Yeah, you know, we are new around here, and so… yeah." Donald explained.

"Oh, if you really don't know," The woman said. "Welcome to Shanghai."
