Chapter III

Making Plans


Happy about the loss of Xemnas (and Axel was happy about loosing Larxene for reasons he refused to explain) the MFR flew towards the Organization's HQ, The World that Never Was.

"Say, anyone else find it funny how the Empire never guessed that our HQ is the same place it has always been?" Axel asked.

"Nah. They probably thought it was too obvious" Roxas replied.

Eventually the ship found its way to the world that never was, which was extremely hard since it was a huge castle about 4 times the size of all the other worlds around it…

They crashed onto the castle, and quickly ran inside with the plans.

Under they way they crashed into Saïx.

"Wo, what's the hurry?" he asked. "And more importantly: where's the Superior?"

"Uh, he died" Roxas said.

Saïx stared at them. "He what?"

"Larxene, Marluxia, Vexen, Lexaeus and Zexion are most likely dead too. The entire Castle Oblivion blew up" Axel said.

"It did??" Saïx said. "What happened?"

"The Death Star happened" Roxas said.

"I am so going to kill them" Saïx said, pulled out his claymore and ran out of the castle.

"Aren't you going to stop him before he hurts himself?" Namine asked.

The boys gazed at each other. "Nah" they all said in unison and left.

They walked trhough the hallway, noticing that with the superior dead and the second-in-command out going berserk they didn't know who to talk to about the plans.

They didn't have to worry for too long, cause pretty soon the Organization nr II appeared.

"Yo dudes. What are you doing?" Xigbar asked.

"We just got back from the death star to rescue Namine, and guess what; we've got plans on how to destroy the death star!" Roxas said.

"Really? That's awesome! I'll go alert the others" Xigbar said and ran of.

Ten minutes later the remaining Organization members (minus Saïx) were all gathered in the meeting room.

"These guys have gotten plans on how to destroy the death star" Xigbar said to Xaldin and Luxord, whom he had realised were the only ones left.

"Would you mind sharing it with the class?" Xaldin asked.

"Oh right… can I have it please?" Xigbar said and took the note from Roxas. "K dudes… lets see what we need: A death star to destroy. Check. And X-wing. Well gummi ships should work as well. Rebel friends." Xigbar looked around at the others. Axel was trying to set the table on fire, Demyx was putting said fire out, Xaldin and Luxord were playing cards, Tinkerbell was beating up Roxas who obviously had called her pixie again, Tron was eagerly taking notes of everything Xigbar said and Namine was sleeping. "Maybe we should recruit some more… A ghost…" He looked up and saw the ghost of Xemnas sitting at the table, waving at him, Xigbar waved back. "Check. Experience in killing Wamp rats…"

"What the heck is a wamprat?" Roxas said as he held Tinkerbel on a safe distance with the Oblivion Keyblade.

"I dunno. Sounds like an animal of some kind…well most of you are used to killing heartless that are acting up so that shouldn't be too much of a problem" Xigbar finished. "So, ready your battle stations lads."

"Shouldn't we read the rest of the instructions?" Tron asked.

"As if! We've all seen Star Wars haven't we? Just shoot the exhaust port, duh" Xigbar said shrugging.

"But don't you think Sora and Riku have seen that movie to and removed this flaw?" Roxas asked.

"As if…"

"Seriously, stop saying that" Roxas said. "It's just as annoying when Axel does it."

"What? I never do anything like that! Got it memorized?" Axel said.

"They so sent the wrong guy to this mission" Demyx said, slamming his head into the table.

"Well hopefully we won't need these plans anyway. As there's no way those drunkards are going to find us here" Xigbar said and threw the plans into Trixi's litter box…They did not have a trash can so that's where most of the organization's trash ended up.

IX--Xoraidepolcycnu—IX

But the "drunkards" as Xigbar referred to them as, seemed to have sobered up a little.

At least enough for Riku to come up with the brilliant strategy of putting a tracking device on the MFR.

"So you thought we were idiots did you? Well WE'LL SEE WHO THE IDIOTS ARE NOW IDIOTS!" Riku yelled at the monitors that showed the MFR's position.

"Who are you talking to boss?" Max asked.

"Er.. no one" Riku said, looking slightly embarrassed when he remembered he wasn't alone in the room.

He had gathered all of his closest minions in the monitor room, which meant Sora, Sam and Max plus his pet heartless, whom he had named Roxas, mostly to annoy the original Roxas as the shadow-heartless was the stupidest thing ever (according to him at least).

"So ehm… It appears the enemy's base is positioned here" he said, pointing at the map, which had a pink glowing dot on it (they had stolen the monitors from Marluxia's ship).

"That's the World that Never Was" Sora said.

"I know" said Riku.

"The home world of the nobodies."

"I know".

"And that being said; the place which should have been the first place we should have considered being the Organization's HQ."

"I KNOW!" Riku yelled. "Now are you going to stand here pointing out the obvious or go GET THEM!"

"Aye aye…" Sora said, and ran towards the control room.

"I'm surrounded by idiots" Riku muttered.

Sam, Max and Roxas the shadow backed out of the room as well before any of them said something to contradict the young Emperor-wannabe, which all three (the shadow too, despite it being unable to talk) wanted to.

X—NetrebmunnamorethdnarettelahtobsiX—X

Meanwhile in the World that Never Was, the Organization were finally "ready" for battle…or as ready as they would ever get.

Saïx had returned as he remembered he couldn't fly, and Xigbar had hired/kidnapped Hayner to be their newest employee. He didn't mind. Up until now he had been hiding in his room ever since his friends were turned into heartless, fearing something like that would happen to him to. He felt safer in the nobody-world though.

"Cool! Does that mean I get a cool nickname and add an X to my name?" Hayner asked.

"Only if you let us pull your heart out dude" Xigbar said.

"It won't hurt…for more than a couple of weeks, max" Xaldin said, sharpening one of his spears. "Afterwards you won't feel a thing…ever."

"…You know…perhaps I should just be a spare-Nr 14 or something" Hayner said, backing of slowly.

"Coward. You don't see Axel here chickening ou…Axel where are you going?" Xigbar asked, and looked around to Axel and Demyx, who were packing the gummi ship full of clothes.

"We're chickening out, got it memorized? See you later, got it memorized?" Axel asked, and took of, leaving the rest of the Organization+Hayner, Roxas' prinnies and his cat (in a wheel chair) gazing after him.

"You know… I would have expected that from Demyx, but why did nr VIII leave?" Saïx asked.

"Meh, probably just his way of being dramatic and then return later and save our asses at the last minute or something" Roxas said.

"Whatever. It's not like we're really under attack or anything" Xigbar said.

Suddenly a dusk randomly appeared.

"The death star is approaching! It's just behind Twilight Town" it yelled.

"F" Xigbar said.

"Can the dusks talk?" Roxas said.

"Yes we can. We just haven't done it before because we don't like you" the dusk said and disappeared.

Roxas gazed at the spot where the dusk had been, before turning to a samurai-nobody standing behind him.

"You like me right?" he asked.

The samurai gazed at him, burst into laughter and then portalled away.

"O…k? Remind me to fire that guy later" Roxas said to one of the prinnies.

XI—niarbymdeppordi!evomydobon—XI

Riku appeared in the control room of the death star and was slightly baffled at what he saw.

Sora was steering the death star, nothing odd there, but he did it using a wooden steering wheel that looked like it had been stolen from an old ship. He was also wearing a pirate hat, an eyepatch and had an aerial knocker heartless (the flying heartless from the Pridelands) on his shoulder, which was struggling to sit still as it had boxing gloves on his "feet".

"Yoho, yoho, a pirate's life for me" Sora was singing.

"I know you love pirates but isn't this a tad bit odd?" Riku asked.

"So what? You said I could decorate the control room as I wanted to" Sora said.

"Yes... but making it look like the Black Pearl?" Riku asked.

"You're just jealous" Sora said. "Right Polly?" he asked the aerial knocker, that had now fallen down.

"Whatever. How long before we reach the World that Never Was?" Riku asked.

"Quite some time…I just realised a big round ball may not be the most aerodynamic space ship in the universe" Sora said.

"Darnit! What was that dumbass emperor thinking when he made it this way?" Riku asked.

"Well you're the one that had to copy it" the aerial knocker on the ground said.

Riku stabbed the heartless with his Way to Dawn-keyblade, not bothering to ask how the heck it could talk. Probably the same reason the dusks could talk to Roxas.

"…Polly?" Sora said.

"Oh please, that was the 1928. time that has happened. Just get another one" Riku said, then suddenly his cell phone which was hanging on his belt started ringing.

Both boys stared at the phone then towards the door.

Right on cue, Sam and Max suddenly barged in the door.

"I GOT IT!" Max yelled.

"No! I GOT IT!" said Sam.

Sora and Riku merely gazed at the animals as they once again started their phone war, despite the fact it wasn't even their phone ringing.

Sam picked up a cannonball just laying around (yes, Sora had decorated the room with cannons to, despite the fact that they were useless indoors) and threw it the rabbit.

But Max was too quick, and jumped out of the way and seemed to be winning the race.

Then however, Riku suddenly pulled out the Way to Dawn and slammed the flat-side into Max, slamming him into the wall. The rabbit was knocked out cold, one down.

Sam didn't seem too worried about his friend's defeat, and dived for Riku's phone, in order to avoid WTD.

Riku jumped out of the way of the dog, but tripped on the cannonball that Sam had thrown earlier, in the process the phone fell of his belt and rolled over the floor.

Sam got to his feet quickly and within short he had grabbed the phone.

He was just about to press "reply" when he felt something hard hit his feet.

"Darn cannonball!" he said as he fell backwards, dropping the phone.

Riku bounced up, grabbed the phone before it hit the ground and looked at it.

"Huh…they hung up…funny" he said.

"Okay I admit, you are good at this" Sam said.

"That's why I'm the Emperor, not you" Riku said and put the phone back on his belt. "I just wished people would be more patient when calling me."

"Well seeing as you're battling a giant dog and a rapid bunny every time your phone rings, don't you think that is a little useless?" Sora asked.

"Well they started it" Riku said and pointed to Sam who was trying to wake Max up, the bunny was mumbling something that sounded like "Everyone is Maxified".

"So why don't you just take the phone the moment it starts ringing?" Sora asked.

Riku glared at him, picked up his phone and dialled a number. Just then Sora's phone started ringing.

"I GOT IT!" Max yelled, suddenly wide awake.

"Oh…crap" Sora said.

"Because it's so much more fun this way" Riku said, smirking.


Usagi: seeing how far I've gotten in these past few days it appears the first/fourth part of HW may get very short… The good part is; there's three parts, ironically named IV, V and VI, after the movies (which also came before I, II, and III. What was George Lucas thinking??)

So I got some practice for fighting scenes in this chapter too. During a struck of inspiration today I figured I had to add Sam and Max's phone war (which happens every single time the phone rings, even in their own series) with Riku as the winner. Please tell me what you think about the battle scene, I do far too few of those… and I NEED the practice, otherwise Lost in Darkness is going to get very boring… and… (Chocobo Racing starts playing) oh, phone?

Max: I GOT IT!

Sam: I GOT IT!

Usagi: gee…..please review people.
