And chapter two here we are!


Sora had a bit of a weird dream that night. It started off with him standing on the beach. The same one where he found Kairi back when she washed up ashore years ago. It was still nighttime and the full moon was high in the sky. Dream or not he could feel the water starting to freeze his bare feet. He stepped out of the range of the waves and looked up at the moon.

He felt the soft breeze blow by as he started walking along the beach. The only sounds he could hear was the waves crashing against the shore. Sora had to be honest when he said the last time he had been on the beach at night was the night that the islands disappeared.

He still shuddered at the thought of that. Sometimes he still had nightmares of what happened. Sometimes he couldn't even believe the islands disappeared in the first place. Not only that but he couldn't bring himself to believe that there really were other worlds out there. That and that every star in the sky was supposed to be another world.

Sora stopped walking and looked up at the night sky. Was it him, or did the moon seem different somehow? Sora frowned and narrowed his eyes at the moon. Yeah, there was definitely something different about it. He couldn't quite place his finger on what it was but it didn't seem to bother him. It seemed kinda comforting for some reason.

Sora scratched his head in confusion when all of a sudden the scenery around him shifted. Now he was standing in a meadow. What's worse was that he recognized the meadow. It was the same one he had a vision of earlier in the day. Only this time it was still nighttime and the field was empty of any of the creatures he saw earlier were gone too.

Odd. They were here earlier. Maybe he just thought them up?

"Doubt I did that," he muttered.

Just then he felt a cold shiver run down his back. Why did he have a bad feeling all of a sudden? Like something was watching him?

Sora looked around but didn't spot anyone or anything. That was until he saw an enormous shadow on the ground under him. He looked and saw a glowing electric blue eye appear on the large shadow. Taking the defensive he stepped back and waited. He saw the shadow shrink down into a smaller shadow.

The shadow then drifted along the ground in a zigzag pattern in a large circle around him.

"Why don't you come on out!" he shouted at the shadow.

"As you wish," a deep voice answered.

Sora shivered as he saw something form out of the shadow and drifted up into view. It was a weird creature that had somewhat of an hourglass appearance, a red spiky growth around its neck, and a long white flowing mane that obscured one of its blue eyes. Its club-shaped arms had three claws. On its shoulders were long tatters and it appeared to be wearing an old ripped cloak, though Sora had a strong feeling that that was its skin.

"Who…what are you," Sora demanded while trying to keep his composure.

The creature continued to stare at Sora with its one blue eye.

"You…reek of light," the creature said. Sora blinked. Was that supposed to be a compliment or an insult?

"O—kay," he said. "And is there something wrong with that?"

The creature didn't answer but Sora saw its blue eye start to glow. Sora prepared himself for whatever the creature was planning. Though when he looked around he saw that the scenery had changed on him again. Sora gasped when he saw he was standing on the remains of the islet him, Riku, and Kairi play on. Looking up he saw a large black hole sucking up the remains of the islet. Just like…like what happened when the islands got sucked into darkness.

"So…this is your worst nightmare," the creature said glancing around. "How sad."

"Who are you!?" Sora shouted again. "I know you're the one causing all this!"

Once again the creature ignored him. Pretty soon the creature started to sink back into a shadow again.

"Soon," it said as it sank into a shadow. "Soon…we shall meet."

"What are you talking about?" Sora shouted as the creature completely vanished into the shadow. Once it did Sora gritted his teeth. His anger didn't last long since pretty soon he felt something wrap around his ankles. Glancing down, he cried out when he saw tendrils of darkness wrapping themselves around his legs. Sora struggled against the tendrils but they kept wrapping themselves around his legs.

To make matters worse tendrils soon reached out and wrapped around his arms.

"Sora!"

Sora's head snapped up and saw both Riku and Kairi. He panicked, though, when he saw the two of them getting absorbed into a pool of darkness. He saw them struggling like he was but it wasn't doing them any good.

"Riku! Kairi!" Sora shouted struggling even harder against his dark restraints. He started to choke when one managed to wrap around his neck. He coughed and looked to see Riku and Kairi before they completely sank into the dark pool.

Soon Sora felt himself sink down into a dark pool as well. No, he wasn't sinking. He was falling….down…down…


"…ora? Sora! Sora wake up!"

Sora snapped awake. He sat up and frantically looked around. White walls, his clothes scattered across the floor, photos of him and his friends hanging out around the islands stuck on the walls.

My room, he thought. I'm back in my room.

"Sora, are you alright?" his mom asked.

"I—I'll be fine," he panted while wiping some of the sweat off his face.

"It looks like you were having a horrible nightmare."

"No kidding," Sora muttered.

"Well breakfast's almost ready so once you're done getting dressed come downstairs to eat okay?" his mom said before getting up and leaving his room after she saw him nod. Once she closed the door behind her Sora gave a sigh. He ran a hand through his spiky chestnut brown hair.

That nightmare was still plaguing his mind. That creature he saw, what was it? How did it know that losing the islands again was part of his worst nightmare?

Sora flinched at the thought. Ever since he and Riku had defeated Xemnas, he had always been completely terrified of not only losing the islands again but failing at his duty as a Keyblade wielder. He hadn't told anyone about this, not even Riku or Kairi. Of course, he didn't have to since they pretty much figured that out already. They just knew him that well from the looks of it.

"Whatever, it was just a nightmare," Sora told himself with a shake of his head. He got up and walked over to his dresser. He nearly tripped on one of the shirts he had lying on the floor along the way. Once reached his dresser he searched through the drawers for something to wear. Of course, he wasn't much one to plan out his outfits so he just grabbed a blue and white striped shirt, beige cargo pants, a sleeveless black zip-up hooded jacket, and brown sandals.

Once dressed he headed towards the kitchen, smelling his mom's cooking as he walked down the stairs. His stomach growled at the scent of breakfast. By the time he reached the kitchen, his mom had already set a plate of pancakes on the kitchen table. Sora sat down at the kitchen table and started to eat the pancakes his mom made.

"So, got any plans today Sora?" His mom asked sitting down drinking some tea.

Sora shrugged his shoulders. "Not really. Might just walk around the islands or something."

"All right, well just make sure to be careful," his mom said taking a sip of her tea. "Especially since apparently that crystal necklace seems to make sure bad luck follows you."

Sora blinked then looked to see he was wearing the crystal necklace. Wait, he didn't remember putting it on. Maybe he did when he was changing and he just didn't realize it? Yeah, that was probably it. Not like it just showed up around his neck. Sora shook his head. That was just crazy thinking.

"Well I'm heading out now," Sora said getting up from the table. "I'll see you later mom. Love you!"

"Bye honey! Love you too!" his mom called after him as he ran out of the house.


Sora walked along the streets, merely wandering around. He had a pair of headphones over his ears and was listening to some music while he walked. From time to time, he would either bob his head to the music or start humming along to the song. He had forgotten the name of the song and was too lazy to look it up on his iPod.

An ice cold breeze drifted it's way past Sora causing to him to stop for a second. He only felt the breeze for a few seconds before it was gone. Sora absentmindedly rubbed his shoulders in response to the cold. Odd, just where did that breeze come from? It was the middle of summer, no way there could be a random cold breeze like that.

Sora frowned but continued walking anyway. Whatever that breeze was, no use in trying to figure it out now since it was long gone. With that in mind, Sora continued walking.


It was about two o'clock when the strange wormhole or whatever it was showed up. Sora was walking along the beach when it showed up. He decided to walk along the beach in hopes of clearing his head. For some reason, while he was walking around the island his head started to hurt. For the past hour, he had been walking right along the shoreline with the waves occasionally washing over his feet.

Just as his headache started to fade away his crystal started to glow brightly.

"Say what?" he said in surprise as the crystal started to glow even brighter. Sora had to close his eyes from how bright the crystal was getting. A minute later the crystal finally stopped glowing so Sora opened his eyes.

"The hell was that?" he muttered. Sora took off the necklace and looked at the crystal with narrowed eyes. Okay, that was not normal. Gripping the crystal in his fist Sora looked up and jumped back in shock.

A few feet away from him was some wormhole of some kind. It was swirling in midair like it was perfectly normal for a random wormhole to exist out of the blue. Before he could do much else, Sora felt another cold breeze drift right by him. Only this time the breeze wasn't a simple one. This one was strong enough to cause him to stumble forward. Paying that no mind though Sora's attention went back to the wormhole. Looking into it, he saw that it was like some distortion of a window since he saw an entirely different scenery within the wormhole.

Sora stumbled back when another weird wormhole opened up just like the first one. Then another one, and another, and two more. All around him, different wormholes were opening up looking like they all lead to completely different places. The bad part of it all was that he was surrounded by all the wormholes so he didn't have anywhere to go. At least not without ending up walking straight into one. And there was no way he was going to try and enter one of the wormholes. That was crazy, even compared to the things he went through on his adventures.

Sora's crystal started to glow again. The part that made Sora finally think he was going crazy, though, was the part that he was glowing too. As if things weren't strange enough. The brighter his crystal glowed the brighter the glow around him got as well. And like before Sora eventually had to shield his eyes when the glow got too bright for him. Although, this time, when the light died, the wormholes, along with Sora himself, were completely gone.


Do you think he's dead?

"Don't say things like that! Can't you see he's still breathing? Honestly!"

Whaaat? I was just saying.

"Well, you should keep thoughts like that to yourself."

Sora's head was pounding like crazy. His limbs felt like they were made out of lead. Where was he anyway? The ground certainly didn't feel like a sandy beach. No, it felt like solid ground. But wasn't he at the beach?

Sora let out a groan and sat up, with a lot of effort. He rubbed his aching head. Ho boy did his head hurt like hell.

"Are you okay there?"

Sora opened his eyes to see a girl about the same age as him looking at him with concern. She had long honey blonde hair and chartreuse green eyes. She was wearing a blue tank, a white off-shoulder shirt, jean skirt, black leggings, and laced knee-high boots. On her back was a rainbow-colored book bag

"Are you alright?" she asked.

"Depends on your definition of 'alright' there…"

The girl smiled. "Oh, my names Miakoda. But my friends call me Mia."

Sora began to stand up but stopped when he saw what was resting on the girl's shoulder. It was a fox-like creature with slate-gray fur and a large whorled scruff of fur on its head that had red fur on top. There was also a ruff of black fur around its neck, and its limbs tipped with red fur as well.

Sora blinked and stared at the thing.

"What?" Mia blinked then realized Sora was looking at the fox-thing. "Oh, that's right. This is my friend Zorua."

Nice to meet you! the fox-thing grinned.

It was then that Sora realized Zorua was talking to him through his mind. The thing was telepathic…or he was going crazy.

He's acting like he's never seen a Pokémon before, Zorua snorted.

"Poké…mon?" Sora blinked. "What the heck is a 'Pokémon'?"

Now both Mia and Zorua were staring at him.

"What? You mean you've never seen a Pokémon before?" Mia questioned.

"No, and I've never even heard of something like a 'Pokémon' or whatever."

"Well then jeez, what are you? From some other planet or something?"

Sora flinched. It was then that it dawned on him. It was a no wonder he didn't know where he was. Remembering what happened and looking at the facts, he came to the conclusion he must have somehow ended up in a completely different world. One he's never been too.

"Er yeah, I'm not from around here. And where I'm from we don't have any 'Pokémon' so yeah, I've never heard of them."

Mia and Zorua both continued to stare at Sora like he had grown a second head or something. Apparently, in this world, Pokémon was well known judging from their reactions.

"Okay then," Mia said. "Well since you don't know…guess I've got some explaining to do."


And just like that, Sora's in the world of Pokemon! And in case you haven't already guessed it, yes that is the Zorua from the thirteenth movie :P Originally I wanted it to be a plain Zorua but I felt like including the Zorua from the movie ^-^; Although I can tell you he's not really going to play a big role. Anyway, till next time!
