Well, chapter ten is now here. Here's another filler I felt I had to put in. Character development and minor side-plot is all that's here. Anyway, enjoy!

*Rummages through file* Nope, still don't own KH.


Falling...

Falling...

I opened my eyes. There was a blue platform beneath me. On it were two figures, in a sitting position, facing each other. There were also several large circles between them, a lot of smaller circles surrounding them.

I landed. "Where am I?"

This chamber is the manifestation of your love for Sora and his love for you. It connects your hearts. It is called the Station of Love.

"Who are you?"

I do not remember. All I know is that I'm connected to Sora's heart, in a way that's differant from your connection to him.

"Tidus, is that you?" I turned to see Sora emerging from a door on one of the figures. I realized it was him and the other was me. In the larger circles were our traveling companions and at the edges were lots of figures I didn't recognize.

"Yep. According to a voice I keep hearing, this platform is called the Station of Love. It was born from our love for each other."

"What voice."

Me.

"Hey, I'm sure that I've heard your voice before. It was when I first got the Keyblade...

Yes, I have been helping you along your journey.

"Well, thanks! By the way, what's your name?"

I do not remember anything other that it begins with a 'V'. Just call me V.

"Well then V, what do you know about this place?"

"We could use some help in finding our way around. It doesn't help when you've never been to this place before."

This Station is a link between you two. The doors lead to your Station of Serenity. The rest of the place changes depending on the person. I do not know how your's is laid out Tidus and Sora already knows his.

"Hey, V? Do you know if there is a way to get here when awake?"

There is but it is difficult. You will need to ask Yen Sid.

"Oh...thanks for the help though!"

"So Ti, let's see what your heart looks like."

I'm afraid that that will have to wait. You're arriving.

"Aww, anyway, by V!"

Goodbye Tidus. You don't have to bother saying Sora. I'm in your heart.

"Ok, time to wake!"

"Wait Sor, when we wake, don't open your eyes. When someone tries to wake us, jump up screaming."

"Sure. Why not?"


We woke to the sound of the train stopping. "Who's going to wake them?" I heard Kairi ask.

"I will." I heard Riku walk over. When he stopped, I gave Sora a nudge. He jumped up, screaming his head off. Everybody but me, Sora and Riku jumped, even if it is impossible to jump when sitting down. Me and Sora would have burst into laughter. Key word there is 'would'. Riku hit us both over the head.

"Guys, quit fooling around and come up this tower! Tidus, if you need to, drag you Uke with you!"

"What's a Uke?" I asked.

"The one on the bottom in a relationship." Riku answered.

"Aha." I grabbed Sora's hand.

You two have such a strange relationship.

Thanks a lot V. I replied. I dragged Sora along until I saw a figure in a black cloak.

"Hello again. Now, let's dance!" With that, he summoned a blue, guitar-like instrument and started to play it, hundreds of clones made of water pouring out of him.

"Great, it's Demyx. You can use the clones to destroy other clones. Read..."

I shout and a flash of light stopped him. "Thunder!" A familiar group came running up, a large beast made of pure electricity with them. The beast charged in, destroying all the clones and Demyx. "Another one of them gone. Good."

"Hey guys!" I yelled. They turned.

"Hi everyone!" Sakura yelled. That group ran up, Donald and Goofy pouncing on Sora.

"Donald, Goofy, Sora's mine."

"Gawsh, sorry Tidus." Goofy said. Both of them climbed off him.

"Hey! Who are those three?" Donald squawked.

"I'm Lem. The the goth there is Nagem and next to Caasi is Caixsa. His Nobody."

"HIS WHAT!"

"Don't worry, I'm on your side."

"Did the King tell you about the Mastermind?" Lee asked.

"You called?" The Mastermind appeared in the entrance to the tower. "You've gotten rid of a lot of your old enemies. Only eight are left. Well done. But one of them will fight with someone not here. His body is up at the top of the tower. His heart, well..." he looked towards me and Tidus. "That would be telling." With that, he disappeared, leaving a Dustflier with us. "Have fun!"

Sora and me leaped in immediately, both of us driving. He turned into what he called his Wisdom form whereas I went into my Master form, the name having been stolen from Sora. My outfit turned a dark orange and white, Sleeping Lion appearing in my left hand. I ran forwards and while Sora bombarded it with Thunder, I struck out at whatever I could reach. It suddenly span round and threw me off it. I tried to run towards it but ended up running away.

Riku spoke up. "I guess I should have told you. If it hit's you, a lot of things could happen."

"And I assume this is one."

"Yeah, you move the wrong way. Try using magic for now!" I decided to change to my Wisdom form, my clothes becoming fully white save for a yellow stripe going down each side. I joined Sora with the bombardment. Sakura, Lee and Donald joined in with that while the rest struck away. After about five minutes of this, and an embarrassing moment for Riku, it collapsed to the ground. A large heart rose out along with ten orbs, five heading towards me and the rest towards Kairi.

"More magic for you then, Ti?"

"Seems so."

"If I remember correctly, those are Aero, Gravity, Stop, Magnet and Reflect."

"Those sound handy."

"I'll teach you to use them later. Anyway, now we have to talk to Yen Sid."


Ten minutes of climbing later, we came across a small door. "In here guys!" He opened the door and lead us in, bowing to the man we found in there. We all followed suit until we found ourselves being forced into chairs that had appeared out of nowhere.

"I know why you are all here. Some worlds have been sealed off, only twelve worlds can be accessed by the gummis. I want you to go back into your groups and explore these last worlds. Sora, your group take Atlantica, Neverland and The Land Inside the Wardrobe."

"Where's that last world?"

"You'll be able to find it easily. Sakura, your group take The Pride Lands, Destiny Islands and Traverse Town. I'll give you your next mission after these worlds are completed. Now go!"

"WAIT! Don't you have anyone else here?" Yen Sid looked surprised.

"Yes, but how did you know?"

"The Mastermind let it slip just outside. A boy who's lost his heart."

"Yes. He's just in that next room, with someone else. Her name is Aqua..."

"Did you just say Aqua?" Kairi asked.

"Yes. Why?"

"She's the one who gave me the ability to use the Keyblade."

"Anyway." Sora said. "Let's go and see them."

V? I thought.

Yes?

Do you think it might be you?

I have a feeling it might be. Now let's see. We walked through the door into a room with five covered mirrors, a table with several chairs and a bed at the furthest point from the door. On it was a blond boy in a black and white outfit. By his side was a Keyblade.

"Who are you and what are you doing here?" We turned to see a woman with blue hair and a Keyblade pressed to Riku's neck.

"Lady Aqua! Thank you again for saving me back then."

"Who are you?"

"I'm Kairi. You saved my life in Radiant Garden about ten years ago. Don't you remember me?"

"Well, you do look fam..." She was cut off by me and Sora suddenly screaming and falling to our knees in union.


Riku's POV

"They had better not be fooling around again." I said as they fell quiet. As I said that, a heart started to form between them, as they screamed in obvious pain. "I guess not."

"What should we do?" Donald asked.

"Leave them." answered Aqua. "I know what's going on. Ventus' heart is returning."

"What?"

"You heard me. It should only be happening to one of them, but I take it that they're in love. If that's the case, then their hearts are connected and so Ven is in both."

"Right." We watched on as the heart finished forming and started to drift over to Ventus' body. When it hit him, there was a blinding flash of light.


Sora's POV

When I regained consciousness, I found Tidus already up and talking to Aqua. I heard more moaning and saw the boy waking up. His name is Ventus. His heart was connected to your's and thus mine.

"Tidus? How did you...?"

Just think what you want to say and will me to hear it. Only works for us though. I've already tried.

How did you figure out how to do that?

Aqua.

"Hi Ven." Aqua said.

"Aqua, is that you?"

"Yes, of course it is."

"Where's Terra?"

"I don't know..."

"Don't worry. We'll find him."

"Sure."

"Oh, and Sora, Tidus. Thank you. And here." He handed us two Keychains. "They're nearly the same but they should help you." We attached the Keychains to our weapons. They were both red, with stripes of blue, black and pink. At the end of each was half a heart.

"Thanks V." He laughed.

"You can call me Ven."

"Why I will, Ventus." With that, a figure in red and black armor appeared.

"Vanitas?"

"It's the Mastermind, more likely." Aqua said. "Yen Sid told me about you. You are one elusive villain. You deserve to rot in hell."

"Thank you for saying that, but I'm still going to have to destroy you and Ventus. As for the rest of you..." He waved his hand and a barrier appeared around us, stopping us all from joining in the battle. Aqua immediately used Thunder, followed by Blizzard and Fire. Then Ventus charged in, hitting Vanitas several times before darting back and seeming to aim at him. Then, he fired off a flurry of fireballs from his Keyblade, all of which homed in on Vanitas. He fell to the ground, and vanished.

"That was easier then I remember it being." Ven commented.

"Come to think of it, none of them were as difficult this time around. That's handy." I said. The barriers dropped and I gave Tidus a quick kiss.

"When will we start to do that in private?" He asked.

"Soon."

"Anyway, we'd better get on with our missions." Kero interrupted.

"I agree with the cute little toy." said Nagem.

"And it's a long flight to Atlantica." I muttered. "Come on! And I need to teach you about your new magic."

"Ok. See you guys soon." Ven said. We teleported back to the ships in preparation for a good night's rest. For most of the crew.


Sorry! Well, this was less of a filler than I thought it would be. The scene in the Stations didn't last nearly as long as I thought it would so I added the little chat with Yen Sid andtThe Ven and Aqua scene as well. It's still such a filler though. But please don't kill me! Then next chapter is Atlantica.
