"Now, do you think that's polite?"

"Oh god, not him again."

Sora tried to pry his hands free but the man took an even tighter grip on them.

"Alright, no hands," Sora thought and he did the next best thing. Trying to be casual, the brunette raised his right foot, brought it back, and slammed it into the man's knee.

"Oh god! You rat!" the man seethed as he let Sora's arms slip through his grasp.

Taking no time for the man to recover, Sora split for home.

"Hey!"

"My god, this guy is pathetic."

Sora kept running and running and it seemed that there was no end to the sandy island, but finally the view of houses came up, along with a shadowy figure some distance away.

"Seriously, if more of these guys show up things aren't gonna look so good."

Hoping that the man would leave, Sora pressed on harder. But the man didn't leave; he started to run towards Sora.

Sora stopped running immediately and, on instinct, turned around and ran. Just as he turned, Sora sped up, but the first man was right there. He grabbed Sora's arms, twisted them around so that Sora himself was turned around, and the man forced Sora to his knees.

The man had one hand pressing Sora's head face-down, the other hand kept Sora's arms twisted behind his back, and his foot was standing on the back of Sora's right leg.

"Rrgghhh…get off me!!" Sora commanded.

The man ignored the boy and turned to face the other guy who had arrived. "Come on. We're leaving."

"What?" Panic shot through Sora as he fully realized the seriousness of the situation. "No!" Sora began to try and fight off the man, but in response, the man pushed Sora flat onto his stomach.

"Get movin'!"

Sora risked a glance at the man holding him down and suddenly felt hollow.

That's impossible! There's no way he could be alive! I freakin' killed him!

"Xigbar!" Sora yelled.

Xigbar faced Sora and smirked. "The one and only."

"I killed you!" Sora spat out.

"Well, by the looks of it, I guess not. I'm still here!"

Xigbar looked back up and saw the portal; Sora followed the Freeshooter's line of sight and then felt himself being picked up.

"Hey!"

"Shut up!" a different man yelled. Sora swung his head around to the guy's voice and saw he was the one who picked him up.

"Xaldin? What's going on here!"

Xaldin remained silent and hoisted Sora up onto his shoulder. Sora tried to break free, but Xigbar came back to face him and delivered a swift blow to the boy's head, and Sora was immediately out cold.

"Alright, let's go."

The three soon disappeared via portal.

The next morning, Riku was out by the tree waiting for Sora. A red colored shape appeared in the corner of Riku's vision and he noticed it as Kairi, but she was running.

As soon as she caught with Riku, he said, "Ya know, you didn't have to rush."

"That's not it; Sora's gone."

"What?"

"I was coming here to meet you two but then I thought I would stop by Sora's house and walk with him, but he wasn't there."

"Well, he said he was going to meet us here today. He wouldn't bail out on us. I'm sure he's here somewhere. Let's just check around the island."

Kairi nodded but knew they weren't going to find anything. Last time Sora left, he didn't come back for nearly two years.

Quietly, Kairi walked around the sandy shore, looking for the slightest detail or hint, but found none. She was just about to give up when she walked down the pier and saw something. She ran over to it and noticed it immediately. It was her lucky charm.

"Riku!" she yelled and waved him over.

"What?"

"Look. I gave this to Sora about two weeks ago because he kept worrying something was going to happen and he wouldn't talk to me so I gave him this to keep him safe. I told him not to lose it but…"

"Look, I'm sure he just accidentally dropped it."

"No, he wouldn't. You of all people know he wouldn't forget something like this. Besides, look at those marks."

Kairi pointed to the pier. "See. There are scratch marks everywhere. I don't think he left willingly."

"What, are you saying he was kidnapped or something?"

"Not 'something', I think he was kidnapped."

"Ok, if you're right, then we need to find him fast because whoever did this probably didn't want to just ask him something."

"Ya, but who would want him and why?"

"I don't know. I could only guess the Organization, but they're all dead. Think we should inform King Mickey?"

"Definitely. He'll probably know something or give us a lead," Kairi answered and they both headed off towards Sora's house.

Rain was pouring from the night sky, illuminating Castle Infinity with an eerie shine. A black portal suddenly erupted from the ground and out of it came two men and an unconscious boy.

The first man, Xigbar, stepped out of the shadow along with Xaldin, then the black vanished. The two men resumed their walking and headed towards the bleak castle.

Walking through the Byzantine style door, the men made a right and walked for about one hundred feet, then took an immediate left and down a long flight of stairs.

Once at the bottom, they went left into the heart of the castle and were in a corridor of cells; more accurately, empty rooms.

Opening the first door he came to, Xaldin walked in, while Xigbar stood outside. The Lancer walked to the back wall and removed Sora from his shoulder and put him down, his back against the brick wall.

Picking up the boy's right arm, Xaldin locked it into a shackle chained to a wall; the same was done to the left arm.

Turning his back to the boy, Number III walked back out and locked the door. He and Xigbar left through a portal and ended up on the top floor, floor 50. Fearing using the doors, Xaldin parted and left Xigbar to explain things.

Cautiously, the Freeshooter opened the towering door and entered a portal to his appropriate seat. The whole room was bathed in white and there were thirteen chairs, all of unequal height, but only two were occupied. The highest chair had a cloaked figure, seemingly in-charge, and the other had Xigbar as its occupant.

"Well?" the cloaked man inquired.

"Got him," Xigbar answered.

"Well where is he?"

"In the cell."

"Why? I wanted to speak to him."

"He's kinda out cold."

"…" The man sighed.

"Seriously Xemnas, everything's under control."

"Just don't screw up. Otherwise you'll find yourself in a worse situation compared to the boy."

AN: This may be a little confusing but I promise it'll all be answered/explained in later chapters! BTW, Castle Infinity is a new castle that I made up. I didn't feel like using Oblivion or the Castle That Never Was. Basically, it was built on the ruins of TWTNW. The castle is called Infinity because…I'll tell you later! Thanks DeimosPhobos for the castle name! I'll upload the next chapter a little faster hopefully!! Bye!!
