Umm…Hi! This is A! I just wanted to apologize for not adding anything Kingdom Hearts until the end, but I had to get the plot set up and stuff…gomen! --; I'm open for suggestions on names and stuff (like how the four people are related to each other). Please R&R if you want to see more!! please also send feedback on my writing style. Like? Dislike? Just tell me!

Disclaimer: I do not own Clifford or Kingdom Hearts.

Claimer: I own the nameless girl character and the librarians character…not that any of that matters.

Thoughts

"Speaking"

Wow that was long! Gomen! Now on with the story…!

The clock chimed five. It was nearly closing time at the library. A girl who was flipping through books sighed. I'll have to hurry and choose

one… she thought. She pulled a Clifford book off the shelf, glanced at it, sighed, and put it back. It was hopeless. All of the books here were for

little kids. She shouldered her backpack and wandered further into the dimly-lit city library. As she neared the back, she noticed a small pile of

books on a homemade wooden bench that looked as if they had been written centuries ago. Hmm…maybe one of these would be worth

reading? She wondered. As she began to carefully look through them, she noticed a thin, red, leather-bound book at the bottom of the pile that

caught her attention. None of the other books were this bright, unfaded color. Setting the books she had been looking at down on the bench, she

carefully reached towards it. While moving the books on top of it aside, she caught a glimpse of gold-leaf lettering on he cover before the book

was snatched away. She blinked in surprise and slowly turned to see the hook-nose librarian with the book clasped tightly in her hands. "Excuse

me," The girl spoke softly, "I was just looking at that book. May I please have it back?" The librarian stared at her with wide eyes, while gripping

the book tighter. "I was being careful with it, I know it's very old, I was just looking at it." The girl explained softly. Why would the librarian not

want me to look at that book? It is a library after all, and if it's that fragile, then why don't they keep it in the back room? And just

how important can that book be anyway…? She thought, bewildered. The librarian finally spoke, not relaxing her tight grip on the book, "it be

bad to be messin with magic, young miss." Just then the bell chimed six. The librarian looked up, startled, "you best be out of here, it's nearly

closing." The girl quietly spoke, while shouldering her bag, "I'm sorry, I just wanted to find something interesting to read." She bows slightly to the

librarian, "I should be going then." She then turned to leave. "Wait!" It was the librarian. "Be careful." She said while nodding and edging away.

The girl stared after her. What was that all about? She wondered. She shrugged it off as she walked out of the library and disappeared into the

bustling city streets. She did not notice the librarian watching her leave out of the window nor did she hear the librarian speak, "So, the fourth has

arrived. Sora shall indeed awaken. "
