It had been a while before peace was a part of Sora's life, it had always been fight this and save that, but he can finally rest. He had fixed his self up, well he combed his hair, he didn't enjoy dressing up or anything like that it just wasn't him. Today was his day with Kairi, he had worked to save her and to just see her finally he had the chance to be with her. Riku said he would keep the others busy so they wouldn't be interrupted , what a guy. Sora smiled, Riku had become like his brother over the years and this little recent event made them even closer. The nobodies, what a sad group they were, just wanting their hearts back and to be full. Sora sighed as he walked down the sandy beach of the island, he was going to meet her at a place he hadn't been in a while that old island they played on. A cold breeze brought goosebumps down Sora's neck, he shivered and darted his head back and forth feeling that it wasn't natural. "Sora, you are needed," a voice seemed to appear through the wind. Sora turned around and started to look for the source of the voice.

Sora finally got frustrated, "who are you?" A blue and white dome appeared in front of him and faded away leaving a old man with silvery hair that went down to his waist. He extended a gloved hand, his trench coat that matched the ocean flapped in the wind, and his teal eyes almost reading Sora's soul. "I don't have time for this I need to meet with Kairi," Sora walked passed him.

The man grabbed Sora by he arm, "if you wish for her to exist then you will come with me, I'd perfer to do this passively, but I will just take you if I have to." Sora glared at the man with rage, he was ruining the peace he had fought for and wasn't in the mood to get into another fight. Sora kept on fighting back until the man let go, he scowled and went to get back to his date. The man grunted, "as you wish." Extended his hand and the ground under Sora become blue and froze him to that spot.

Sora cursed and began to tug at his feet trying to will them to pull themselves off the ground, but they wouldn't obey, "what do you want?!" The man walked over, placed his hand on Sora's shoulder and both were engulfed in the same dome which he appeared in and they disappeared. They both appeared in a map room, the middle table was a entire map of the planets and the rest of the room is full of maps of those planets. The old man let's go of Sora's arm and walks over to the table, he begins to look at each one and rubs his chin. Sora stomps over to the map and notices some of the planets right away, but he had other matters on his mind, "answer me!"

The man pointed at a world that seemed to be covered in all black and no planet is visible, "that is why I brought you here, it was once a lush jungle, but suddenly this darkness came over it and the planets near it have begun to have dark spots over them." He then points at an empty space of stars, "that was a planet, but it was completely engulfed in the darkness and then disappeared. There is something powerful coming our way and I fear that only you and the other key bearers can stop it."

Sora crossed his arms and cursed under his breath, "can't seem to get a break." He stared at the map a while fixated on the one clouded in darkness, he pondered what was going on the surface. "Can we go there? Onto the surface?" Sora turned to the old man.

"If we do we'd have a chance of disappearing along with the planet our only chance of learning is going to one of the others near it. That one is lost," the old man seemed saddened, but attempted to hide it.

Sora could see through the guise, "we'll find a way to bring it back. What's your name?"

The old man looked at this little optimistic figure and smiled, "I don't have one, but I am called Atlas."

Sora smiled, "Atlas, I will help you bring these planets back to normal."

Atlas nodded, "then we need to begin as soon as possible," he pointed at a industrial looking planet, "we'll begin with this planet."

"Scare Factory," Sora read as he leaned over to read the name under it.
