This is the first story in my training series! It tells about the time between KH DDD and my story KH3: Final Stand. Most of the stories will be about Riku, Kairi, and Lea, but some will have Sora in them.

This first world is one that was made into a movie recently, but the movie WAS NOT as good as the old television show!

I do not own any characters or places; all rights belong to Disney, Square Enix, and Universal Televison.

If You Have a Problem and No One Else can Solve it Maybe You can Hire…..

Chapter 1

"Sorry Riku, I shouldn't have said that."

"Don't apologize to me; you need to talk to her." Lea turned his head and looked where Riku was pointing; to their right was Kairi, she had her arms crossed and was avoiding the gaze of Lea. The pyro huffed and made his way over to her. As he came close she still avoided looking directly at him as he began to talk to her.

Riku wiped sweat from his forehead, they had only been training for a short time and already things were going downhill. He had known that since Lea's Nobody had kidnapped Kairi at one time things would be difficult, but he had never expected them to be this bad so fast.

Lea had just been joking when he said what he did, but Kairi took it offensively and now she was mad. Riku watched them as Lea tried to say he was sorry. He soon saw them look at each other and nod, this dispute was over but another would begin soon and he knew it.

"Lea, Kairi come here!" he called out to them, they came and he continued, "Master Yen Sid informed me that Kairi and I need to check out a situation on another world. We won't be gone too long, but maybe it will be a good time for you two to cool off."

Kairi walked off to get ready to leave, Lea stared after her, "Riku, I don't know if she'll ever trust me fully, or if there's any way for me to earn her trust."

"She'll come around eventually," the silverette reassured him, "and don't worry; you'll get a chance to prove yourself to her soon."

"Thanks Riku," the red head smiled and headed off.

An hour later Riku and Kairi landed on a new world. They were in a large field near a barn surrounded by cars. The young Keybladers quietly made their way over the barn and looked through a hole in one of the slats. Fifty to sixty men sat in stands above a wooden fighting ring with two men inside. Police officers stood around and one was using a camera to record the fight in the ring.

One of the fighters was a tall, muscular, Hispanic man, who was winning the fight. With a single punch he knocked the other fighter to the ground, much to the delight of the spectators.

A large police man walked into the ring with a smile; he yelled to the crowd, "How should we end it?"

"FINISH HIM!"

Kairi looked at Riku in fright, "Finish him… do they mean?" The young master gave her a sad nod.

The policeman waved his hand and half a dozen soldier heartless appeared, "Finish him Jase."

"No Warden!" Jase told him firmly. The heartless turned towards the fighter and Riku nearly summoned his Keyblade to attack. Suddenly the soldier heartless turned on the fallen fighter and attacked.

Kairi gasped and hid her face from the terrible sight. Even Riku, who had seen some horrible things, was appalled at this act.

"Oh Riku, why, why did he do that?"

The silverette was about to answer when both of them took a sharp blow to the head. As their unconscious bodies fell over, two police men picked them up and tossed them into the back of the prison truck.

"Ha," one of the men exclaimed, "Beale will have some fun with those two spies!" Then they started the truck and made their way towards Strikersville Prison, with Riku and Kairi as prisoners!

I know this chapter is short… but it's only the prelude. Next time… Lea will team up with some wanted fugitives to get back his friends, by any means necessary!
