A/N: Whoops! Forgot to mention this before but, I don't own Kingdom Hearts or Silent Hill 3, but if someone wants to give me Heather, I wouldn't mind at all…

Chapter Two

The Meeting and the Zealot

"Oh Dad…" sobbed Heather. She had just returned to her home in the Daisy Villa Apartments, only to discover that someone had murdered her father! As she quietly mourned for him, she heard footsteps coming towards her, and then a soft male voice spoke "Are you alright, miss? Is there anything I can do?"

"Of course there's not anything you can do! Unless you can bring the dead back to life!" she shouted sarcastically.

"I can't do that, but I can call the police if you want," the voice replied. She turned around ready to launch off another sarcastic comment, when she saw the speaker for the first time. He was a young man, around six feet tall, with crystal blue eyes and hair the color of chocolate. Currently, his cute – if not handsome – face held an expression of worry and sympathy. This look caused her to forget any remark she had been going to make. Instead she replied, "No, don't call the police. That will only bring goons with questions that I can't answer yet. By the way, just who exactly are you?"

"My name is Sora. Sora Hearts," he quietly stated, "I was walking through here, trying to find out what happened to all of the people in this town when I heard you crying."

"Thanks for coming to check on me," she sniffled, "is there anything I can help you with?"

"Well, I'm new in town. My friends and I have been chasing down some strange characters, and trying to find two of our friends, who have gone missing." Sora knew that he could not tell her that he was from another world. To do so would be meddling in the affairs of this world, and that was against his number one rule.

"Hmm…I've seen some strange characters lately. They are these weird monsters, and they seem to have a taste for people. All that I can tell you about them is that they suddenly appeared in town this morning, and since then I haven't been able to find a single person here!" she said with a shiver, "but if your friends have been kidnapped by these creatures, then they probably aren't alive anymore. I'm so sorry."

"There's no need to worry," Sora replied with a smile, "we have good reason to believe that our friends are still alive."

"Oh! Well in that case I might know where they would be," Heather started to say with a smile. CRASH! Both of them jumped as a metal pipe fell to the ground outside. "It looked like it fell off of the roof," shouted Sora. Heather and Sora quickly climbed up the fire stairs to the top of the building. When they got there, Heather saw a very familiar – and hated – face: "YOU! Did you murder my father?" she shouted at a blonde woman. "No I didn't. But if I had, it would only be because it is necessary to bring God into the world. Your heart must be full of pain and hatred to nourish God, so that She can bring about paradise," the woman calmly replied, "the

one who murdered your father is right over there."

She gestured, and Heather and Sora glanced to the left. Groaaaan. There, emerging from the mist, was a twisted form. It stood upright like a person, but it looked and smelled like rotting meat. Not only that, but instead of normal arms, it had huge club-like appendages, and in place of a face, it had a blood-covered head. Without warning, it sped over to our heroes and began to attack!
