Sora ran across the bridge. He jumped up and over the tree limb and leaned back against it.
"Nothing changed." Riku said, looking off into the distance.
"Nope." Sora said after a moment. "Nothing will."
"What a small world." Riku said as he looked upwards. The sunset covered all of the sky.
"But part of one that's much bigger" Sora countered.
"Yeah." Riku said. Sora looked at him.
"So what do you think it was, the door to the light?" Sora asked. Riku choked a laugh out.
"This." He said, pointing to Sora's heart.
"You think so?" Sora asked, looking at his heart.
"It's always closer then you think." Riku looked back to the sunset.
"SORA! RIKU!" Kairi shouted, waving. She ran across the bridge carrying a bottle. As Riku turned around, he noticed the emblem on King Mickey.
"A message from the King!" Sora exclaimed, pulling the cork out and dumping the letter into his hand.
"Sora, Riku, Kairi" It began.
"Things are not well here at Disney Castle. Someone has released a Chaser! They are bad news. I need you to speak with Master Yen Sid in Twlight Town. He will give you more information about the Chasers and how to deal with them. Hopefully this will reach you before I am no longer here. I've enclosed my Key Chain for Kairi to use. Good Luck!
Signed,
King Mickey"
"Sounds bad." Riku said. Sora handed the KeyChain to Kairi. It turned into King Mickey's KeyBlade. It was surprisingly light in her hands.
"Let's go! If this means trouble, then Yen Sid will know more about it. TO TWLIGHT TOWER!" Sora said, and they were off with the Highwind.
"GiVe Me YoUr KeYbLaDe KING!" The armored one demanded. King Mickey shifted in his seat. He knew it was only a matter of time before he found the KeyBlade not there.
"NEVER!" King Mickey shouted, looking at the door to his chamber. The armored one laughed.
"If YoU aRe WaItInG fOr YoUr GuArD aNd SoRcErEr, It'S tOo LaTe!" He said, throwing the Save the King and Save the Queen to Mickey's feet.
"Donald--Goofy--no--" Mickey said. The armored one looked around the chamber, then brought his gaze directly back to Mickey.
"It'S nOt HeRe. ThEn I wIlL gO tO tHe HaLl Of ThE cOrNeRsToNe!" He said, knocking Mickey out of the Throne with the Gargantuan Key, and into the wall. Mickey felt his bones break when he hit the wall. Mickey watched in pain as the armored one decended the stairs, into the hall.
In the hall, the armored one pointed his Gargantuan Key at the CornerStone. A bright light filled the room as a map of the entire Universe filled the room. Little key shaped symbols pointed to Worlds that had either potential Key Bearers or existing ones. A world with three Keys caught his eye. He pointed at the world and it showed three different pictures. Of the three, one infuriated him. The son of the man who banished to that rotten HellHole was still prancing around. Then an idea struck him. He was going to destroy this kid. He started laughing, His form changed into the image that was his undoing.
Mickey finally got to his feet when he saw a familiar face. He was almost too glad, when it dawned on him.
"Sor--" he was cut off as the Gargantuan Key slammed into his throat.
"Can't have you telling anyone, Your Highness." Sora's voice filled the hall.
"This is not good." Yen Sid said, handing the letter back to Riku. He began to rub his beard.
"What are the Chasers, Master?" Sora said, taking the letter from Riku.
"To put it simply, Chasers are KeyBearers who gave into the Darkness in their Heart." Yen Sid sat back into his chair.
"So, they're bad, right?" Sora said, confused.
"Yes, their ultimate goal is to obtain Kingdom Hearts by unlocking every KeyBearers' heart. They began succedding until someone started defeating them. Every Chaser began to pursue him and the result was the "KeyBlade War" Where your father, Sora, and two others sealed them into the Sunrise Plains, where they had no power. If one is loose, then they all might be able to escape." Yen Sid said.
"So they are Heartless?" Sora asked, still confused. Riku knocked on the back of his head.
"Nope, still hollow." He said. Kairi began laughing.
"Sora, they are not even Nobodies, But are far more powerful than the Organization XIII." Yen Sid said, standing back up. He walked over to Kairi and looked at Mickey's key.
"What puzzles me is that Mickey gave his key, the ultimate sign of his authority, to you." Yen Sid said. Kairi looked at Sora quizzically.
"Don't worry. King Mickey should be fine." Sora said, patting Riku on the shoulder. Kairi nodded.
"In order to get rid of this menace, you must destroy them completely. You three hold the three KeyBlades that they are searching for. Be careful." Yen Sid said, the three bowed their heads. Sora lifted his head.
"Master Yen Sid. You said that my father was in the Key Blade War. Who else was with him?" Sora said.
"Ah, you mean the Missing Two? Even I do not know that. You must find that out for yourself." Yen Sid said, and they left.
"So, where do we want to go first?" Sora said, looking at the nearby worlds.
"Let's go to Gaia of Time. It's the closest to here. If they are looking for us, we might find them closer, besides, I know a few people here." Riku said.
A/N: Well, this is the first chapter in hopefully something that is long. Review if you so wish. If you want Cameo's from certain SquareEnix or Disney Characters, Email me.I will try to fit them all in, but don't expect me to add everyone right away. Thanks
