A/N: Finally. I had done this chapter and on my way to chapter 5. In this one, Anakin fights Axel again and Crash will finally awaken. No more spoilers. Anyway, sorry I been long, but I had other things on my mind. Like new stories, but my english teacher died. Anyway, please read, don't flame and review.

Chapter 4: Crash awakened:

As Anakin went to sleep again, he dreamt of the last bit of memories of Crash's memories as he saw him and his friends outside the End of the Worlds.

"What? So this is what happened to the worlds taken over by the heartless?" asked Knuckles.

"Right. And those worlds would be restored when we defeat Bowser, right?" asked Crash. "I just thought of something. If we do defeat Bowser, and all these worlds will become restored and disconnected. What's gonna happen to this place? And to us as well?"

Then the next part of the memories of him fighting Specter and then shows him and his friends confronting Bowser.

"You see… I know everything around the worlds and everything there is. I am the master of knowledge. You see, all worlds begins in darkness. And it also ends. The heart is no different to the rest of them. As you can see, my dear bandicoot boy, darkness is the heart's true essence." Bowser said.

And we sees Crash becoming a Super Bandicoot.

"THAT IS NOT TRUE AT ALL!" Crash shouted "It's true that the heart may be weak and sometimes, it may even give in to the darkness. But I learn that deep down in the heart is a light that NEVER goes out!"

Then we sees him destroying Bowser's vessel and a defeated Bowser turned to Bandicoot Hearts.

"Bandicoot Hearts! F…Fill me, with the power of darkness!"

"You're wrong!" Crash said "I know now, without a doubt…" then he called to Bandicoot Hearts "BANDICOOT HEARTS IS LIGHT!"

Then Bandicoot Hearts destroyed Bowser and we see Sonic holding up the keyblade.

"OK, Crash. Let's close this door down for good."

And Crash, Shadow and Knuckles closed Bandicoot Hearts. Crash sees Crunch's face as he said to him "Take care of your sister OK?"

The next slide shows Crash running to Coco as they were about to be separated.

"Coco!" Crash called as he ran up to her.

"Crash?" Coco asked as he watched towards him. "Did you did it? Did you defeat him?" Then the sandy path got separated from the white path and Coco almost fell but Crash grabbed her hand.

"I'm sorry, Coco. But it look like I won't be returning to you" Crash said.

"Don't leave me, Crash!" Coco cried tearfully.

"Don't cry, please. Remember what you've said before. I'll always with you too" Crash said "I will come back to the Wumpa Jungle after I rescue Crunch and I will come back to you. I promise!"

Crash and Coco were losing their grips on their hands.

"I know you will!" Coco called to him.

Then Crash let go and watches her leave. Then the next part shows him, Shadow and Knuckles walking down the valley.

"So now what do we do?" asked Shadow.

"What do you think? We have to find Crunch and King Sonic" Crash said.

"But where would we find that what there, door to the light?" asked Knuckles.

Then all a sudden Tails appeared.

"Tails?" Shadow asked.

"That's the king's seal!" Knuckles asked.

"Hey, have you seen Sonic?" asked Crash.

"Yes. As a matter of fact, follow me!" Tails said as he ran off. Shadow and Knuckles smiled at each other.

"Guys!" Crash said "Let's go!"

They all ran down the path following Tails. Then at night, Crash was all alone and he saw a black coated guy. He chased after him. Then he was outside a castle called Castle Oblivion. But then the screen frizzles out. Then we sees the two cloaked figures together at the dark beach.

"I see you had finally arrived, young one" he said to the younger one "I had been to seen him… he does look a lot like you though…"

"Who does?" asked the smaller one "And who are you?"

in an unknown city, it was raining hard. Suddenly, a black hooded figure walked through it. We can't see his face but he has a bandicoot snot. As he continued to walk, he was then confronted by a million of new heartless surrounding him. He was still smiling as he saw a muscle like bandicoot on top of the buildings with a blindfold over his eyes. The hooded figure grabbed something from his coat. A keyblade. And he grabbed another one. One is black and one is blue. He twirls them around and got into his fighting stance. The muscle bandicoot opened his arms wide, surrounding the hooded figure a heart like shape. Then the heartless attacked but the hooded figure wiped out some with the keyblade. Then he looked up to the muscle bandicoot and leapt up attacking the heartless. Then he leapt up and ran up the building the muscle bandicoot was on. He slashed the heartless all the way up and threw the black keyblade at the muscle bandicoot who caught it and fell down back to the earth passing the hooded person. The hooded person leapt down as well and the two clashed in a massive swordfight. Then all of a sudden, the hooded figure slashed the muscle bandicoot and he fell down. The muscle bandicoot was at the mercy and yells "Tell me. Why do you have the keyblade?"

"Shut up!" the hooded bandicoot said and strikes…

Anakin woke up and he rubbed his eyes. He looked at his hands and saw that he was wearing brown gloves. He was thrown back and he looked at his hands again showing his orange hands.

"Strange" Anakin said as he got out of bed. His legs then changed to a blue jeans one and brown shoes, and back into Anakin's own clothes again. He opened the window and rubbed his eyes and got dressed again and walked up to Sora, Kairi and Tidus who were talking.

"Man I could not sleep last night. Must be a bad case of nightmares" Anakin said. Then he saw that they were not paying attention. "Guys" Anakin asked as he put his hand on Sora's shoulder but just then his hand slid through him. "What?"

Just then, Sora, Kairi and Tidus walks out through Anakin. Anakin watches them leave.

"What is going on?" asked Anakin. He ran to the photos that was on a chair. It shows Sora, Kairi and Tidus… but no Anakin. He begins to panic. He ran out but then he was cut off by some grey things, some old and some new.

"Look what it comes to" said a voice. Anakin turned to the red haired bandicoot known as Axel who was behind him. "I had been given these icky instructions to destroy you… if you refused to come back to us."

"Axel…" Anakin said picking up a stick "but we… we were best friends weren't we?"

Axel scratches his head and said "Sure...but I'm not getting turned into a Dusk for..." but then he turned to him "Wait a minute! You do remember now?!"

"I guess that was right" Anakin said.

"Great! But just to make sure you do remember" Axel said "what is our boss name?"

"Err…" Anakin tried to remember but he didn't.

Axel said and said "I can't believe this…" Then he ordered the grey things to attack.

The stick then became a keyblade again. "Oh man!" Anakin said as he got ready for battle. After a short battle, Anakin wiped out the grey things and turned to Axel.

"Then you gave me no choice" Axel said as he got out his weapons and was about to attack when he froze.

"What the…?" Anakin froze and looks at him. Then a voice came into his head.

"Anakin, to the mansion!" Diz's voice rang out "The time has come!"

Anakin tried to stop this like before and he yells "SORA! TIDUS! KAIRI!"

"Forget it" Diz's voice said "It won't help you like last time. Come if you want to meet Crash."

Anakin gasped. He got Crash? He ran right into the forest. Axel, who was unfrozen, realised that he has gone. He sighed.

"The Anakin I know is long gone now" Axel said, and then he frowned "Fine. I see how it is."

Anakin reaches to the mansion and the gate was closed. Then the grey things came behind him.

"Oh come on… don't just call me and then lock me out…" Then he remembered. He has a vision of Crash pointing the keyblade at something. "Of course. Use the keyblade to get in." He stepped back and pointed his keyblade at the gates. A beam came out it into the lock. The gates opened at this on it's own. He quickly ran inside. The grey things tried to follow but then a dark portal appeared and Bowser appeared holding a wing-like sword. He then charged.

Anakin got into the mansion and saw it was dimly light and ran to the second floor and entered on one of the room. He was back in the white room where he and Rachel were once at. He goes up to looked at the picture and it shows him walking through a dark city. Then all of a sudden, Anakin groaned and clutches his head in pain.

He had a sudden flashback. He was in a dark city and it was raining. Anakin is seen wearing a black overcoat and he was walking through the buildings. Axel is still leaning on the building on the side of him, crossing his arms.

"So… you're mind is made up, huh?" Axel said as Anakin stops.

"Why did the keyblade choose me?" Anakin asked "I am leaving to know more."

"WHAT?!" Axel snapped "You can't turn your back on the Organization!"

Anakin then stops having his flashback and looked around the room.

"Anakin…" Anakin turned around to see Rachel in her chair.

"Organization XIII" Anakin said "I heard they are a bad group."

Rachel replied "Bad or good, I don't know. They're a group of incomplete people who wish to be whole. To that end, they're desperately searching for something."

"What are they're looking for?" Anakin asked.

"Bandicoot Hearts" Rachel said. Anakin chuckles for a bit. Rachel looks concerned "What is so funny?"

"Oh nothing. It's just… I think… I've been running away from the question I really wanted to ask you" Anakin said as he leaned against the table "What's going to happen to me now? Tell me that. No one cares for me anymore so nothing matters anywhere."

"I care for you" Rachel said. "And to answer your question, you are…" but she didn't finish because she started to flickers.

"Rachel!" Anakin tried to save her but she disappeared into data and Anakin fell over the chair and tumbled down. Diz then appeared to him in a flash of data and looked at Anakin's fallen form.

"I am afraid there will be no knowledge that has the power to change your fate, young Anakin" Diz said.

Anakin saw him and got up "You… Even if it does, I still need to know. I have the right to know everything!"

"A Nobody has not have a right to know" Diz said "Nor it has a right to be."

"WHAT IS A NOBODY?!" Anakin shouted.

Bowser, still hooded appeared to them.

"Diz, we're running out of time. There are too many Nobodies!" Bowser said.

"Then we must take haste. Come to the lab, Anakin" Diz said "we shall talk then. Come, Rachel!"

Then Anakin gasped, under his cloak was Rachel. She tried to run to him but Diz grabbed her. Then Bowser calls upon a portal and Diz, dragging Rachel, moves towards him.

"Let me go, please! Anakin!" Rachel called to him "Nobodies like us are only half a person. You won't disappear, I can give you that! You will be whole again!"

"I'll … disappear?" Anakin asked.

"No more outbursts from you!" Diz said as he covered Rachel's mouth.

"Wait!" Anakin yells as he tries to save her but Bowser blocks his path. "Out of my way, pickpocket!"

"Sorry, but that won't do" Bowser said.

Rachel managed to get her mouth free from Diz and she yells to him, "Anakin, We will meet again. And then we can talk about everything. I may not know it's you, and you may not know it's me. But we will meet again. Someday soon. I promise!" She just said that as she and Diz entered the dark portal and disappeared.

"LET HER GO!" Anakin yells as the portal and Bowser disappears. "Rachel…" he said silently. He then decides to find Diz's library. Taking one of Rachel's drawings, he made his way to the library.

On the table was a little scribble. Anakin then drew an X on it. Then the table lit up and the rest of the floor of the library. Then it reveals a staircase to a secret room.

"Rachel… Crash… hold on!" Anakin said.

He ran down the stairs fighting the grey creatures and entered the room. He came to the same room where Diz was where he was at the multi screen computer. All at once, Anakin's head ached again.

He remembers there was a grey room where some black coated people were sitting on some white thrones. On the one that said XIII is Anakin. Each of the people from each of the Organization XIII were sitting. Then he remembers him running away from some grey things. And then he remembered him defeated the muscular bandicoot. Yes, it was HIM who was fighting him.

"Tell me. Why do you have the keyblade?"

"Shut up!" the hooded bandicoot said and strikes, but the muscular bandicoot quickly grabbed the keyblade and knocks Anakin away. He then walks towards Anakin. And the last thing, he was seen unconscious underneath an odd machine with Bowser and Diz looking down at him.

"Will it work?" asked Bowser.

"If we can maintain the simulated Destiny Island that he will stay in until Rachel finishes chaining together Crash's memories" Diz said.

"And what will happen to Anakin?" Bowser asked.

"He holds half of Crash's power within him" Diz said as he walked to his computer "I don't care what happened to him as in the end he has to give his power back to Crash. Until then, he needs to have another personality to throw off his persuaders."

"Poor kid" Bowser said he looked at him.

Diz punches some keys on his computer and said "Don't worry. It's the fate of a Nobody." And then a beam came down and teleported Anakin in data and disappeared. Anakin then remembered him meeting Sora, Kairi and Tidus for the first time.

Anakin stopped remembering and he got very ANGRY. He was so angry that he yells in anger and grabbed his keyblade.

"So he did THIS TO ME?!" He roared as he starts slashing violently to the computer and it's monitors. As he stopped as he was done, he was panting. He then noticed that the door has opened. Anakin entered and found out that he is in the basement hallway. But then he was cut off by some grey things. Anakin grabbed his keyblade and defeated them. Then Axel appeared, crossing his arms.

"Simply amazing, Anakin" Axel said.

"Axel…" Anakin said.

"So you do remember me this time" Axel said, but he got more angry "I'm SO FLATTERED!" His anger causes flames to surround them. Anakin looked around in shock.

"Axel, what are you're doing?!" Anakin asked.

"But you're too late!" Axel snarls. "Now I will destroy you!"

Anakin frowns and said "Fine!" Anakin then took out a black keyblade and the white keyblade out and twirls them together.

"Two?!" Axel snapped.

"If you won't stop this, then I'LL WILL!" Anakin said.

Axel smiled nastily at him. "Well, come on then. I'll make it stop." he said as he threw his charkas at Anakin. But Anakin dodged them and he and Axel flew up and clashed their weapons. Suddenly, Axel caused the floor to change like an lava ground like the volcano. Anakin looked down in shock. Axel then disappeared into the hell fire and appeared behind Anakin and slashed him. Anakin was thrown back but landed on his feet as he saw Axel disappeared again. He saw him coming towards him this time and threw him and follows after him as he starts to attack him. Axel then got hit and fell onto his back. Anakin stabbed him in the stomach and the floor changes back to it's original floor. Axel got up and powered up his weapons causing them to go on fire and he threw them at Anakin. Axel disappeared behind the flames again and appeared as he slashed Anakin's arm, but Anakin countered it with a slash on his chest. Axel flew up in the air and Anakin leapt up and slashed him. Axel got up and changed the floor again and pushes Anakin towards the ground. Anakin saw that he was about to fall on the hot ground but then he leapt back and teleported behind Axel and hit him the ground again, changing the floor again. Axel got back up and looked up to see Anakin gone. Anakin was below him and he slashed him in the chest. Axel groaned and fell to one knee. His weapons disappear and so did the hellfire.

"Look like I win" Anakin said. He looked at Axel in pity. He remembered his last words to him when he left the dark city.

"If you get onto their bad side, they will destroy you" Axel said.

"Oh lighten down. No one would miss me" Anakin said as he walks away.

"That's not true… I would…" Axel said sadly.

Back to reality, Axel then begins to disappear. Anakin looked at him.

"Hey, Axel. That was fun" Anakin smiled.

"You know what? Me too" Axel said "Let's meet again in the next life, Anakin."

"Yeah… me too…" Anakin said.

Axel chuckled lightly "No silly. Just because you have a next life…"

But he disappeared. Anakin watches as his best friend disappears. He walks up to where he is and sighed. "I see you later… OK?" And he saw another door and walked through. He saw that he was walking through a corridor which has large capsules, hanging on the walls and up the ceiling. He sees two people in there. He gasped.

"Shadow… and… Knuckles…" he gasped.

He was looking at Shadow and Knuckles in the real life. He then entered the next door. The room was white with one huge capsule sealing up. And right in front of him was Diz.

"At last… the keyblade's chosen one has arrived" Diz said.

"Pardon me for asking, but who are you're talking to?" Anakin asked crossly "Me? Or Crash?"

"Why, to half of Crash, of course" Diz said "While you resides in the realm of darkness while he resides in light. I need someone who can move into the realm of light and destroy Organization XIII."

"Why are you asking me? What or who are you?" Anakin asked.

"Me? Who am I? Why, I am the servant of the world" Diz said and then he laughs "and if I am a servant, then you should consider to be a tool, at best."

"Was… was that suppose to be a joke?" Anakin asked angrily as he took out the keyblade "CAUSE I AM NOT LAUGHING!" He ran at him and tried to slash him but suddenly, the keyblade went through Diz and Anakin was on the other side. Anakin was in shock as he stands up straight.

"My apologies, Anakin" Diz said "This is only a data-based projection. Come and attack me if you dare."

Anakin turns in anger and yells. He tried attacking him again but it keeps going through. Then Diz disappears and Anakin was completely out of breath. Then Diz appeared behind him.

"Come, over here" Diz taunted.

Anakin turned around in anger.

"I hate you so much!" Anakin snarled "You took away Rachel for no reason and now you're trying to make me turn against Axel!"

"Then I suggest you should share some of your hatred with Crash" Diz said "You see, he was far too nice for his own good."

"NO! My heart belongs to me!" Anakin said as he tried to attack him again but Diz disappears and Anakin bumped into the capsule. The capsule suddenly came to life. Anakin stepped back to see who he has to fight next. Then he stopped glaring and looked concerned.

"Crash…" Anakin said.

Inside was Crash Bandicoot himself, floating and sleeping. His hair has gotten longer as his hair goes down his sort-of-neck and his fringe was covering was almost covering his eyes and covered around his ears. His trousers had gotten quite short as he got taller as it reached to his knees. His fur was more ruffled on his arm and cheeks. Anakin stood up and looked at Crash.

"I finally get to meet you, huh Crash." Anakin said "And you're lucky. It looks like my summer vacation is… over."

He then begins walking towards Crash.

Meanwhile, the same purple and gold ferry came into shore on Destiny Island harbour and a black coated figure came out. He has black fins coming form the back of his head and he looked around.

Anakin was last seen in a black background. He turned around to us and said "Crash…" before he disappeared in a white light.

"Huh?" Crash said in his thought, his voice now deepen "who's there?"

"Crash?" the voice of Shadow called.

"Crash? Wake up" Knuckles' voice called.

Outside the huge capsule in the white room, Shadow and Knuckles looked quite worried. And then they turned around as the capsule opened up revealing Crash awake. He yawned and stretched. Shadow and Knuckles couldn't help as they noticed how tall Crash is because his trousers have got a lot smaller. Crash noticed most of his hair was covering his eyes. He pushed them aside and stuffed them by his ears leaving some hanging. He saw Shadow and Knuckles, smiled, leapt out of the capsule and hugged them both.

"Shadow! Knuckles!" Crash said happily.

Then they held there hands and danced around the room happily. Then Pipotchi, their guide, woke up and yawned.

"Pipo, pipo" it said.

"What? That was some nap?" asked Crash "Wait, so we were asleep?"

Pipotchi nodded and said something in his own language.

"He said 'I think we must have or we wouldn't be so drowsy'. But when did we went to sleep?" Knuckles asked.

They all got down into thinking.

"Let me see if I get this straight" Crash said as he crosses his arms "We defeated Bowser…"

"Yeah" Shadow said.

"…and we restored peaces to the worlds… found Coco…" Crash said. And then he remembered "Oh yeah. And then we left to look for Crunch and the king. I think that's right so far."

"I see… and then what happened?" Shadow asked.

Knuckles looked into Pipotchi's journal and said "Well, it said here… "Thank Rachel". Who's Rachel?"

"I don't know" Shadow said "Some journal huh?"

"Let's take a look outside" Crash said as Pipotchi got back into Knuckle's hair. "Maybe we learn more."

As Shadow and Knuckles left, Crash check into his pocket and found some unusual items. A championship belt, some potions and some money.

"Funny… where did this come from?" Crash asked as he pocketed them "Oh, well. I bet I can keep them for a while." He then looked up and ran out of the mansion. A new adventure is starting for Crash Bandicoot and his friends. One question remains… what happened to Anakin?

To be continued…

A/N: Right. Crash is back and he will meet Sora and the others. Anyway, I just got some ideas. Thanks to you guys who helped me with some forums. Anyway, see ya later.
