Kingdom Hearts: Darkness and Light

Part 2

"Sora. Aim for that dock."

Sora steadied the Gummi Ship and slowly tilted into the dock Riku had pointed out.

"Easy now…"

The ship landed easily. Sora turned around.

"Everyone okay?"

Riku seemed to be okay, but Kairi looked dizzy.

"Whoa…"

Sora smiled. "I'm still new at this thing. Give me a break."

Kairi took a deep breath. "I didn't say anything. As much as I should have."

"Whatever."

Sora pushed the window up and got out of the Gummi Ship. Riku followed, then Kairi.

Sora exhaled. "So, we're finally here. Disney Castle."

The castle was pretty much as Sora remembered it. Bright and inviting.

Sora looked around. "Now how did we get out of here the first time?"

A few seconds' wait.

"Oh! This way!"

He confidently led them to the courtyard.

"Hey! Sora!"

Sora looked behind him. "Hey!"

He was suddenly leapt upon by two small chipmunks.

"Sora!"

"We missed you!"

"How you been?"

"Did you treat the Gummi ship right?"

When they had finally gotten off him, he introduced them.

"Riku, Kairi, this is Chip and Dale."

Riku tilted his head. Kairi smiled.

"Hi there."

They responded enthusiastically.

"Hi, Kairi!"

"Nice to meet you!"

Sora looked at Riku, who looked a little freaked out.

"Say hi, Riku."

"They're chipmunks?"

"Say it."

"Hi."

When the introductions were done, Sora began to ask them some questions.

"So, where are Donald and Goofy?"

"They're on a mission in Radiant Garden."

Sora frowned. "Oh…really?"

"Yeah."

"Too bad."

"So, Sora, what brings you here?"

Sora reached into his vest pocket and took out the familiar letter. "I got this note a few days ago saying the King wanted to meet me here."

Chip looked confused. "The King didn't say anything about it…"

Sora frowned. "He didn't?"

"Nope… but we can still get you to him!"

Sora smiled again. "All right. Lead the way!"

King Mickey's throne room really was magnificent when it wasn't filled to the brim with Heartless.

Although Sora had to admit it was quite long.

After a long trek to the throne, Sora finally met up with the king.

"Sora! Riku! Kairi!"

The King leapt out of his seat and tackled all three of them at once. After holding the group hug for a while, they finally let go.

"So, what brings you fellas to the castle?"

Sora took the letter out of his pocket and handed it to the king.

The king looked at it. He looked very, very puzzled. He then handed it back to Sora.

"I didn't write that."

"What?!"

The king clicked his tongue. "That seal is forged. That's not my handwriting."

Sora shook his head. "Then who--?"

"Ah. That was me."

Sora looked behind him. There was a man in a robe—identical to Organization XIII's, but pure white.

Sora gritted his teeth. "It's a trap."

Riku sighed. "You think?"
