Disclaimer: I do not own Kingdom Hearts, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Pokemon, or any other things that pop up in this fan fiction.

A/N: Hey guys! This is my fist fanfic, and I really enjoyed this first chapter. I hope you enjoy my work, any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Chapter 1: Recollection

This was a rather trying time for the brown haired young man, who was lying on the beach. He had, once again , been separated from his friends. He sighed, and looked up at the stars. "Kairi... Riku... Where are you?"

"They can hear you, you know," a voice said through the darkness.

"Who's there?" Sora asked, jumping back and summoning his Keyblade.

A tall man in a pure white hooded coat walked into the boys view. "You three... Are connected by heart. Too bad... One of the hearts is no more," the man said in a deep, raspy voice.

"What did you do to them?" Sora yelled, scaring many of the sleeping animals near by.

"I did not harm either of your heart-bound," the man responded angrily, "though I will not tell you exactly what has happened to them. To find out," he clicked his fingers, and a white angelic archway appeared to the left of Sora, "follow the light."

With those final words the man disappeared. Sora gazed at the gateway. "Follow the light... Looks like I'm going on another adventure..." he sighed, shrugged, and ran into the archway.

The short boy smirked across the field, and turned his cap backwards. "Well done, Misty, you took out Tauros."

The red headed girl, Misty, smiled innocently back. "You aren't the only one who has improved, Ash. Brock helped me practice."

Ash pouted towards his friend, who was refereeing the battle. "No fair!"

Brock smiled back. "You've been gone a year, Ash. What did you expect us to do? Play cards?"

Ash laughed at that comment. It was true, he had been gone a while. "Whatever," he said loudly, and turned his hat backwards, "your turn, Pikachu!"

Just as his little yellow friend jumped forward, ready to battle Misty's Starmie, two figures clad in white seemingly appeared out of thin air behind Ash's oldest friends, and knocked them out. "What are you- AAHHHHH!" Ash screamed in pain, and collapsed. As he faded into unconsciousness, he heard someone laugh, and say, "...Later..."

"This is it, Joey! I summon the sacrifice my Celtic Warrior, and Beta The Magnet Warrior, to summon Dark Magician!" an extremely short boy, for the age of fifteen, yelled across a street. A large crowd of people had surrounded them, to watch the two renowned duelists face of again.

"Oh boy..." the blonde haired teenager on the other side of the street muttered, looking at his side of the field."I only have Panther Warrior. And thanks to his Spellbinding Circle, he can't change positions, or attack. I'll activate my trap then..."

"What was that, Joe?"

"Uh... Strategy, Yug."

"Right... Well, this is over! Dark Magician, attack!"

The purple robed sorcerer on Yugi Moto's side of the field ran in to attack the panther-human hybrid. "After this attack, Joey, I win!"

"Not so fast, Yugi!"

"What?"

"I activate my Trap Card, Waboku!"

"Well played."

"I traded a card to Tea," Joey said to his best friend, and winked at the girl standing at the front of the crowd, "I knew this baby would come in handy."

"Too bad for you..."

"What you mean, Yug? Waboku prevents my Monsters from being destroyed, as well as stops any damage dealt to me, for one turn!" Joey replied, a smug look on his face.

"Activate, Trap Jammer!" the purple haired boy said in response, which was enough.

"No!"

"Sorry, Joe, but it's over. Dark Magic Attack!"

Joey hung his head, his Warrior destroyed, his life points reduced to zero. "So close..." he muttered.

The crowd arupted in applause, and Yugi walked over to Joey. "Good duel, pal."

"Yeah, you too. I almost had you there." Joe replied, seemingly a lot happier.

"I noticed your Trap Card, and decided to lay a little defense down," Yugi replied sheepishly, and scratched the back of his head.

"Let's go inside, Yug. These fans of yours are starting to bug me."

"Ok."

Yugi Moto, the King of Games, alongside his friend Joey Wheeler, entered his grandfather's game shop. Solomon looked towards the door they walked through, and smiled. "So boys, who won?"

"Yug. Again," Joey sighed, as Tea and Tristan walked through the door.

"Joey had him on the ropes though," Tristan said, patting them both on the back.

"Yeah, it was a great duel!" Tea said enthusiastically, as the phone started to ring.

"I'll get it," Yugi said as Joey went back to sulking about his loss, while Tristan, Tea and Solomon tried to cheer him up.

"Hello?"

"Yugi? Is that you?" a familiar feminine voice said.

"Ishizu? Is that you? Why are you calling me?"

"It's Marik, he's gone!"

"What? Where'd he go?" Yugi asked frantically, worried for his friend. He got no response. He checked the line, and it was still connected. "Ishizu!"

Yugi turned to talk to his friends, to see them all frozen to the spot, with a familiar looking Egyptian man in a turban inspecting the inanimate figures. "Shadi! What did you do to them? Do you know where Marik is?"

Shadi turned to him, the Millennium Key dangling around his neck. "They are not in pain. They will notice no difference. I just wished to speak with you in private," he said in his distinctive voice, and Yami, now in his spirit form, nodded his consent to Yugi, "but, I do not know of where the boy of Ishtar is. He has had a troubling childhood, perhaps he needed some respite?"

"Maybe... So, what is it you want to talk about?"

"I wish to speak to the Pharaoh." Shadi said, and a second later, a bright light flashed, and Yami was now in Yugi's place.

"What is it, Shadi?" he said calmly, his deep voice soft, for the moment.

"As soon as I restart time, three things will happen. Miss Ishtar's call will be disconnected, your friends will be kidnapped, and you will feel immense pain, and faint," Shadi said, neither his gaze nor his voice faltering.

"WHAT?" Yami yelled, and Shadi blinked in surprise. "Shadi, can we stop it?"

"No."

"Why are you here, then?" Yami said, clearly angrier than usual.

"To help you. Pharaoh, Yugi Moto, you are both Keyblade Masters," Shadi said, still not moving.

"What does that mean? How will it help?"

"That, I know not. It is my duty, however, to return this to you," Shadi said, as he took off the Key, and handed it to Yami, who turned it over in his hands, "it will reveal it's true secrets, in due time."

"Thank you, Shadi," Yami said, somewhat upset, "I guess it's time..."

"Yes, Pharaoh. I fear we may not meet again for quite a while. Farewell," he said, and with a wave time started, and Shadi disappeared.

A/N: So? What you guys think? Also, I have a few new worlds in store, but suggestions would be great. Thanks for reading.
