Okay. Really quick update only because I really want to get to this one world fast. (I'm not saying which.) Anyways, thanks to Jared Reese and jubililationbella for reviewing/following/favoring. Also, thanks to the 449 readers I received! Now I really like this chapter because there's a brief Mysterious Figure.

Mysterious Figure: Why couldn't you have made my part longer? It's even shorter than the last one's!

Me: That's because the other one saved Kairi. And if I wrote your part bigger then it would be obvious who you are! Anyways, enjoy!

Kairi opened her eyes to find herself on a beach. She was over the shock of hearing Radiant Garden and could finally move again, only to be stopped by dizziness.

"Oh sorry Kairi." Mickey said, "The first time always gives ya a headache."

"It's fine." Kairi insisted but sat down anyway. She looked around the beach when she felt Mickey's eyes on her.

"You know Kairi," Mickey said, "You sure do resemble my missing friends."

"How?" Kairi asked.

"Well, like Aqua, you're loyal, kind and unwilling to put your friends in danger. Like Ven, you're always looking on the bright side, determined and unwilling to take no you can't come for an answer. And like Terra, you're brave and will do what you can to keep your friends safe. And those are some great qualities." Kairi smiled at the Mouse King.

"Thank you Mickey." Mickey jumped,

"Hey! That's the first time ya called me Mickey without messing up!"

"I…guess it is." Kairi smiled and stood up, her dizziness now gone.

"Wow." Mickey gasped, "That's the fastest anyone's recovered from a star shard." Kairi shrugged,

"Must be a pure light thing." Mickey nodded,

"So where do we go?" Kairi thought about it and said,

"Well, the last time I was here, I was both unconscious and in Sora's heart but I do remember Sora and the others getting help from Peter Pan and Tinkerbell."

"Did someone call our names?" A voice asked. The Keyblade wielders looked up to see the flying red haired boy of Neverland and his sassy green pixie friend.

"You must be Peter." Kairi smiled, "I'm Kairi and this is Mickey. We're friends of Sora's."

"Really?" Peter gasped. "Well I'm Peter Pan and this here pixie's Tinkerbell. We'd love to show you around but we have to rescue the Lost Boys."

"What's wrong?" Mickey asked.

"That old codfish Hook kidnapped the Lost Boys. Some of them are up there," He pointed up the hill where a Totem Pole was, "while the others are down there." He pointed to Hook's ship in the cove.

"Well we can help you." Kairi said as Mickey summoned their Keyblades.

"Really?" Peter gasped. When the travelers nodded he said, "Alright. Tink give them some dust." The pixie shook her head. "Come on Tink! There's no reason to be jealous. They're just helping us get the Lost Boys." Tink sighed and sprinkled pixie dust over Kairi and Mickey, who immediately began to float in the air because the light in their hearts was so strong. "Follow me." Peter waved as the group flew up the hill.

Meanwhile, the Gummi Ship just landed in Radiant Garden and for once, Sora wasn't worried about Kairi.

"I wonder what's going on?" Donald said.

"Last time it was Heartless getting out of hand." Sora said thoughtfully.

"We'll just have to find them and ask." Riku said. Sora nodded when they heard a,

"Heads up!" and caught sight of a shuriken flying from a hill. Just then, a familiar eighteen year old girl appeared and caught the weapon.

"Yuffie!" Sora cried. The ninja turned and smiled when she saw the travelers.

"Sora, Donald, Goofy! You got Cid's message." She smiled.

"Yeah…" Sora smiled, scratching his neck with one hand as he remembered the message.

"Who're you?" Yuffie asked.

"Riku."

"Oh so you're the famous Riku!" Yuffie smiled. Riku raised an eyebrow and looked at Sora.

"Famous?" He asked.

"Well every time I've seen these guys, you've been missing and I was trying to find you." Sora explained. Riku smirked a little while Yuffie laughed,

"Come on. They're waiting for you at Merlin's." Yuffie led the way, with absolutely no Heartless thankfully, and they arrived at Merlin's within minutes. "Hey guys!" Yuffie cried as they entered, "Sora, Donald, Goofy and the famous Riku are here!" The group turned around. Leon cracked a smile, Aerith smiled for real and Merlin waved. Cid was nowhere to be seen.

"You're here!" Aerith smiled.

"Just in time." Leon added.

"Time?" Sora asked, "What's going on? And where are Cid, Cloud and Tifa?"

"Cid's upstairs and Cloud took off a while ago. Tifa followed him." Merlin explained.

"So what's going on?" Riku asked, not bothering names.

"The Heartless and Nobodies are getting worse." Leon explained, "We can't continue the restoration with them constantly coming in waves that could possibly destroy everything we've done."

"So you need us to get rid of them?" Goofy asked. Aerith nodded,

"That's right." Just then, red dots appeared on the computer and an alarm went off.

"What's going on?" Donald cried.

"The Heartless are back!" Leon answered. Just then, Cid came down.

"I got just the thing for them!" He said, "Leon help me! The rest of ya, gather them together!" Then, he ran back upstairs. The group shared a look.

"This cannon better work better than the last." Leon muttered. "Alright, pair up and gather them in an area with the least amount of restoration." He said.

"The center!" Yuffie cried, "It's so big nobodies' tried to work on it yet!" Sora nodded,

"Let's go!" As the group ran outside, they each paired up and took a side of the Heartless. Yuffie and Sora took the right, Donald and Goofy the left and Riku and Aerith took the middle.

"Let's hope Cid's cannon works." Aerith whispered.

"Can you fight?" Riku asked. Aerith held out her hand and a staff appeared.

"Does this answer your question?" She smiled and quickly cast a powerful Blizzard spell. Riku nodded and began breaking the statues.

Sora stood to the right, Yuffie beside him.

"Ready?" He asked. It was a question for both Yuffie and Roxas.

"I'm always ready for a fight!" Yuffie smiled.

"I'll stand by you to the end Sora." Roxas answered. Sora smiled and held out When Two Become One, charging into an Applause attack and hitting every Shadow he could. Yuffie threw her shuriken and flipped around the Shadows before catching it in midair to throw it again. As they were closing in, Yuffie quickly teleported, confusing the Shadows enough for her to destroy them with the shuriken.

"Now that's what I call a sneak attack." She smiled and flipped away.

Donald stared at the Shadows surrounding him and quickly cast Thundaga. It took care of some of the Heartless but there were still more.

"Alright let's see how well you freeze!" Donald cried as he cast Blizzarga. "Goofy I could use some help!"

"I'm trying Donald!" Goofy cried, "The more I hit them, the faster they come back!" Donald sighed,

"I'm going to regret this. Sora! Slip into Wisdom Form and help us with these Heartless!" Sora looked at the Shadows surrounding his friends and nodded. Donald vanished as Sora slipped into Wisdom Form and fired at every Heartless he could, leaving his group to Yuffie. He continued until Aerith cried,

"Back up! I'm using a powerful Magnet spell on them!" Everyone did and the Heartless flew towards Aerith when she cast the spell. It was the most powerful Magnet spell they've ever seen. As Sora slipped out of Wisdom Form, Aerith shouted, "Now Cid!" Sora turned and saw Cid and Leon in a window at the top of Merlin's house with a cannon.

"Alright! Let's see if Shelia works!" Cid shouted. As he activated the cannon, Roxas whispered,

"He names his cannons?" Sora asked Yuffie, who nodded,

"He says it gives each of them some 'worth'." Sora nodded and watched as the cannon ball hit all the Shadows and they vanished. "It actually works." Yuffie smiled, "Who would've thought?" Sora shrugged and pulled out the communication device that connected him to Mickey.

"Sora!" Mickey cried.

"Hey Y-Mickey. How are things there?" Sora asked as all the travelers crowded around to see.

"Well, Hook kidnapped the Lost Boys. We rescued them from a bunch of Pirate Heartless but now…" Sora didn't hear what Mickey said because suddenly, a flash of a face, too fast for him to make out, appeared before his eyes and he felt a sudden head pounding pain.

"Sora!" Roxas screamed, worried as his friend collapsed. Then, as fast as the pain happened, it stopped. Sora stood up and heard Mickey scream,

"Kairi!" Before he cut the connection.

"We better go." Riku said, "They'll open the gateway for us." Sora nodded and the group headed to the Gummi Ship after saying a quick goodbye.

Kairi stared up at Hook and Peter, who were fighting on the mast.

I have to help him! Was her only thought as she flew up and began to fight Hook too. Peter managed to make Hook fall into the water and scream as he ran from the crocodile and flew away. As Kairi began to follow, a sudden pain came to her as a face flashed before her eyes, too fast for her to make it out. She closed her eyes and gripped her head as she vaguely heard Mickey scream,

"Kairi!" The next thing Kairi knew, she was falling towards the water before she, once again, lost consciousness.
