Chapter Eleven: Heart, soul and power
Keyblade Graveyard
-x-
Xehanort, Aqua, Terra and Ventus
It was the end.
The battle to end it all. Xehanort had everything well underway, he was going to release his heart and make Terra his new vessel, so he may live forever in a younger body. Although he regretted the decision to discontinue the kidnapping of Marie, because he had figured her out.
She was the physical manifestation of Kingdom Heart's heart, soul and power. Kingdom Hearts must have chosen her from birth to be it's protector.
It was also no wonder he felt such incredible power from her, but he was only able to sense the power of light. In his reports, he concluded that both light and dark were needed to balance the worlds, but all he was able to sense was the power of light from Marie.
He knew killing Marie would completely seal Kingdom hearts, and not even the X-blade would be able to unlock it. However, it would make things easier if she were here, that way he would have no trouble drawing out Kingdom heart's power.
Still, he had a lot of power as well. All he really had to do was forcefully steal power from Kingdom hearts. Marie didn't have the slightest idea what she was, so she couldn't stop him.
"Heh," he said. "I should feel bad for the child, but I don't."
Aqua looked at Xehanort, confused, but at the same time, could only think of one child. "Who are you talking about?"
"That silly child I kidnapped, Marie, was her name," he said.
Aqua's eyes widened, her best friend, no, her sister was possibly in danger. She grew angry, and demanded Xehanort that he explained.
And of course he did. He told her about Marie's purpose, and her role in the world. He told her everything he found out about the girl, and after every explained detail Aqua only grew angrier. This was not happening, Marie was in danger, and Aqua was a world away from saving her.
"Enough of this," said Xehanort. "Now, for the finishing act."
Xehanort stabbed himself with his Keyblade, and immediately started to force the power of Kingdom Hearts, or rather, Marie.
Marie had stopped suddenly in her room, and felt someone trying to 'steal' something from her. She placed her hands on her heart, and her body began to glow. She had caught a glimpse of who was trying to steal from her, and when she recognized him she immediately began to stop the flow of power, and had cut Xehanort off.
Xehanort had managed to place his heart in his new vessel, but he wasn't completely finished, as the power was cut. It didn't matter however, because he was functioning well in his new body.
However, his fruition with Kingdom Hearts came to an end when he lost the battle to Terra's lingering sentiment. He fainted, and was unable to continued with his plans.
Marie had felt the portion of her power missing, and she needed to recover it. However a simple sleep was not going to suffice, she needed more sleep. But where was she going to get it?
Monstro

Sora, Donald, and Goofy
"What have you got there, pinocchio?" asked Geppetto.
"With this," Pinocchio pointed at the gummi piece he had before. "We can get out of here, father."
"Really? With this big block?" Geppetto asked. "You think so?"
"It's true," Sora said as he climbed up to where Geppetto and Pinocchio was. "So, how did you end up here, Pinocchio?"
"Oh, my," Geppetto looked surprised. "So the whale swallowed all of you, too? My goodness"
"Yeah, looks like it," said Sora.
"My name is Geppetto," he said. "I'm Pinocchio's father."
"When we got separated," continued Geppetto. "I traveled all over, looking for him. Thank goodness we're together again."
Pinocchio stood there for a moment, but he later noticed something. He walked over to the ledge of the broken ship, and looked to see who or what was there. He saw Riku running deeper inside Monstro, So he went after Riku.
"So, you seem to know Pinocchio quite well," said Geppetto, oblivious to Pinocchio's absence. "I hope he was a good boy in my absence."
"Well, we've all had quite a journey," Geppetto said as he placed the gummi piece beside his bed. "Right, Pinocchio? Pinocchio?"
Geppetto saw that Pinocchio has left to go wander off. Geppetto sighed, and asked Sora if he could look for him, as he was precious to him. Sora nodded, he also had someone precious to him he needed to find.
Monstro

Marie
I stared at the report and, as usual, I'm confused.
But at the same time, these reports may help me understand more about my , I guess, existence. I just needed to know the legitimacy of this report, and if I'll find more. I know I'm suppose to be angry about finding something like this, I usually do get angry, but whoever placed this here probably wants me to realize the truth. Just as Jafar wanted me to.
Anyway, I walked over to the left area of Monstro...and it looked like the room I was just in.
I sighed, this might be a little harder than I thought.
Monstro
-x-
Sora, Donald and Goofy.
"What are you doing?" asked Sora, who had found Pinocchio hiding behind a wall. "Come on, let's go back."
"You know, Geppetto's awfully worried about you," said Goofy.
"Pinocchio, stop fooling around!" shouted Sora, he was in no mood for games, he wanted to look for Marie. "This is no time for games!"
Sora, Donald and Goofy walked away, but as soon as they could reach the entrance, Sora heard Riku's voice.
"But, Sora," he said. Sora turned around. "I thought you liked video games."
"Or are you too cool to play with them now that you have the Keyblade?" he asked again.
"Riku!" exclaimed Sora. "Wh-What are you doing here?"
"Just playing with Pinocchio," he calmly said.
"You know what I mean!" retorted Sora."What about Kairi? No, what about Marie? Have you seen her?"
This caught Riku off guard, their relationship had gone farther than he expected. He needed to find a way to kidnap Marie, but he needed to do it when Sora or his friends weren't around. He wasn't suppose to do it, but he placed a letter near Marie. It was a note he wrote telling her to remember him, and beside the note, was the report that Maleficent had. She had gotten them from Ansem, and read everything about Marie. Which lead to her fixation on her. Riku didn't read the report, because he had a good idea that it was just about Marie's past and whatnot.
Riku was about to speak, but he saw something moving on the ledge in between Sora and him. When he looked up, he saw Marie jumping down exactly in between Sora and him. She landed perfectly, with one knee bent down, and he hand was in the air.
Monstro
-x-
Marie
"Enter the amazing Marie!" I shouted. I landed perfectly on the floor, and it was such a cool landing too! Although, I doubt this was a time to celebrate my awesome landing, unfortunately.
"Marie!" shouted Sora, I looked over to him, and he had a overjoyed look on his face. "You're okay!"
"Of course," I said, flicking back my bangs. "I learned from the best, didn't I?"
Sora started laughing, and I smiled. I turned around, and came face-to-face with Riku. My smiled turned into a frown, as he didn't look too happy.
"Hmph," he said. "If you want to know about Kairi, catch us and maybe I'll tell you what I know."
"What?" Sora stumbled a bit before realizing that he said. "Come on!"
Riku took Pinocchio's hand, and left to go deeper inside Monstro.
I wonder what was going through Riku's mind. He knows me, but I'm still trying to find out what is real. I do know, however, that when I find out, I want to give Riku a proper apology for being such a horrible friend. Because I know for a fact I was. But for now, I'm only able to say sorry that I can't remember our friendship.
"Marie!" exclaimed Sora. "Are you okay? You're not hurt?"
I looked at Sora, and I chuckled. "I'm okay Sora. But we gotta go after Riku! He took Pinocchio, and he knows something about your friend Kairi."
"If you feel funny," said Goofy. "We can always take a break."
"Don't worry. We'll be in big trouble if something bad happens to Pinocchio," I said. "so let's go!"
Sora nodded, and we left.
"That jump you did was really good," commented Donald.
"Thanks!" I smiled. "I kept practicing, and I managed to pull it off."
Sora smiled, and he put his arm around my shoulder. I started laughing, and I tickled his sides. I knew Sora was feeling a little sad, mainly because of Riku disappearing again, and also because of his friend Kairi. So I felt like cheering him up.
"You guys are making me sick," said Donald. "you can get all lovey dovey after we save Pinocchio."
I blushed, I wasn't getting lovey dovey. Heck I wasn't even Sora's girlfriend.
"Well, we're not that love dovey," I said. "We're not even dating."
I stuck my tongue at Donald, but then I laughed after. I looked at Sora, and he kinda looked a little sad. I hope I didn't offend him or anything.
Monstro
-x-
Sora
It was true, he and Marie were not dating, he could easily ask her to be his girlfriend, but something bothered him.
And that was Kairi. He liked her, but as a friend. But somehow he felt that if he told Kairi that he found someone he really and truly loved, she wouldn't be the same. He didn't want anyone to be sad or angry, and that's what bothered him. Kairi's sadness, and Riku's potential anger, since he did know Marie. He assumed that Riku liked Marie, as he was always different when she was near.
He knew his feelings for Marie were true, but he didn't want to make anyone sad or angry. This was his personal vendetta, his love versus the happiness of his friends.
Monstro
-x-
Riku
"Why do you still care about that boy?" asked Maleficent. "He has all but deserted you for the Keyblade and his new companions, after all."
"I don't care about him, or Marie," Riku lied. "I was just messing with them a little."
"Oh, really? Of course you were," he replied. "You wouldn't happen to know where those reports on the girl went, do you?"
Riku shook his head. "No, I didn't even know about them."
Maleficent gave Riku an unconvinced look. "You are not to get anywhere near the girl anymore. Your feelings are too involved."
She started walking past him as he glared. "You should also beware the darkness in your heart. The heartless prey upon it."
A portal appeared, and she walked through it. Riku looked over at her, angered. "Mind your own business!"
Monstro
-x-
Marie
We managed to spot Pinocchio, and we followed him. He saw Riku, and Pinocchio ran past him as well.
"Riku," said Sora. "What's the matter with you? What are you thinking?"
"Don't you realize what you're doing?" he continued.
"I was about to ask you the same thing, Sora," Riku replied. "You only seem interested in running around and showing off that Keyblade these days."
"Do you even want to save Kairi?" he continued. Sora looked down, and he looked a little hesitant to answer. But I know better than anyone else that Sora is here to save Riku and Kairi. Although Riku looks saved to me.
"Of course he does!" I stepped in. "There's not a day where Sora doesn't think about you or Kairi. You're both his friends, and you're both important to him no matter what anyone says!"
Right after what I said, we heard Pinocchio screaming. Riku also turned around, I truly felt horrible, for forgetting my friendship with Riku. I really did. "I'm sorry I can't remember you, Riku. I'm still trying to figure out what's real to me, so please. Give me some time."
I didn't give Riku the chance to say anything, as I ran past him to see what was up with Pinocchio. Although I'm pretty sure...
He saw the tears that were running down my cheeks.
-x-
I went into the next room, and I saw Pinocchio trapped inside a parasite cage heartless. I saw Sora, Donald and Goofy run in, and then I saw Riku. I took out my Keyblade, and prepared myself. I looked at Riku and Sora, who were at my side. I had to ignore my feelings about Riku for now, because a friend was in trouble.
"Are you two ready?" I asked rather sharply. Riku nodded, and looked at Sora. "You up for this?" he asked him.
"No problem," replied Sora. He took out his Keyblade, and prepared himself. "Let's do it!"
Riku jumped and attacked the monster. Donald stood where he was and went to cast spells, and Goofy blocked and attacked with his shield. Sora also fought alongside Riku, while I fought a completely different side then the rest. I attacked so ferociously because all these bottled up emotions that I had weren't necessary, and I needed to release them.
Riku may hate me for forgetting, but that'll be something I'll have to live with. My family may hate me for forgetting them, but it's something I have to live with. Right now, a lot of people need help, and I just can't stand and be confused and sad about my own existence, I should be happy that I'm alive and not eaten by the heartless.
I looked around, and noticed Pinocchio had a few scratched on his wooden leg. I ran to him, and I managed to dodge a tentacle from the heartless, and I healed Pinocchio. "Don't worry, Pinocchio! We'll get you outta here!"
Soon after, Sora went to cast fire on the heartless, and it started to convulse. It hung to the ceiling and the floor opened up. The heartless threw Pinocchio in there, and Riku followed immediately after. This never ends, does it?
I felt Sora's eyes on me, and I looked at him. He definitely had a worried look on his face, and I don't blame him, I was acting weird. But I ignored it, and I nodded, looking at the hole. He took it as the signal for us to jump down, and so we did.
We landed on top of a broken ship, and we saw an old man calling out for Pinocchio. My guess was, this man is Pinocchio's father.
"Please! Give me back my son!" he cried out. I walked beside him, and saw Riku holding Pinocchio as if he were a toy.
"Sorry, old man," said Riku. "I have some unfinished business with this puppet."
"He's no puppet!" cried Pinocchio's father. "Pinocchio is my little boy!"
"He is unusual," argued Riku. "Not many puppets have hearts."
"I'm not sure, but maybe he can help someone who's lost theirs," he finished.
"Wait a minute," said Sora. "Are you talking about Kairi?"
"What do you care about her?"retorted Riku, and he walked away with Pinocchio.
"Kairi.." Sora looked down at the floor. Did Kairi lose her heart? No..
"Let's go," I said, walking to where Riku went. "Riku's doing the wrong thing, we have to stop him."
"But-"
"If Kairi really did lose her heart, then this isn't the way to fix it," I said. Pinocchio has every right to have a heart as well. "She may not be my friend, but Stella always told me to help anyone who needs it."
Sora walked beside me, and held my hand. "Okay, let's go."
I nodded, and the four of us left to where Riku went.
-x-
We managed to make it to where Riku went, and it was Monstro's stomach. We walked to the middle of the stomach, and we saw Riku standing over Pinocchio.
"Hey, let Pinocchio go, Riku," said Sora.
"A puppet that's lost it's heart to the heartless.." Riku started. "Maybe it holds the key to helping Kairi."
"How about it, Sora?" asked Riku. "Let's join forces to save her. We can do it, together."
Um, hello? What about me? Where's my invitation to help? I looked over to Sora, who took his stance, I guess what I said about other ways to save Kairi hit him.
"What? You'd rather fight me?" Riku said. "Over a puppet that has no heart?"
I was going to say something, but Sora placed his arm in front of me. "Heart or no heart, at least he still has a conscience," he said.
"Conscience?" asked Riku.
"You might not hear it," continued Sora. "But right now it's loud and clear. And it's telling me you're on the wrong side!"
I looked over to Riku, he was a little disappointed. He did kidnap Pinocchio, that to me is enough to know you're not right.
"Then you leave me no choice," Riku said. I looked over to Pinocchio, and I saw Jiminy running towards him. Pinocchio didn't look so well, and it kind of made me sad how Riku could do such a thing. As I saw Pinocchio coughing, I decided to heal him. I started walking towards him, and I even passed Riku. I bent down and placed my hand on Pinocchio's heart, and I healed him.
I heard a rattling noise, and I looked up. The monster from before came falling down, and it landed in front of Sora, Donald, and Goofy. I saw Riku going into a tunnel, he looked at me, and I gave him a disappointing look. He left, and I took out my Keyblade. I knew this was going to be rough battle for both Sora and I, because our minds were somewhere else.
Radiant Garden
The past

Marie
Ansem told Marie that a new member was going to join him and be another apprentice. Marie sighed, she wasn't in the mood to be friendly. It was a year after Aqua left, and she was saddened that Aqua never came back. But she still had hope.
"Marie, this is Xehanort," Ansem pointed at the man, who oddly enough looked familiar to her. Even the name sounded familiar, Marie immediately felt something bad about this man, but ignored it. She didn't want to cause Ansem problems, he was in a sad mood as well. Marie walked up to the man and shook hands with him, even his handshake almost felt the same.
She knew this was going to go wrong.
About a month after meeting Xehanort, Ienzo came into the room where Ansem and Mare were. They were both eating sea-salt ice cream, and talking about general stuff. Ienzo didn't very much like Marie, as she was always with Ansem. He even wore the necklace that Marie had made him, it was similar to the one she made for that Aqua woman.
"Ansem, Xehanort is ready for the experiment," he said. Ansem nodded, and left. Marie followed afterward.
"Marie, you stay here," Ansem said. "This might be a little too much for you."
"What are you doing?" she asked. "Maybe I can help."
"No, Marie," he replied. "You're much to young."
Marie ignored Ansem, and ran past him. She pushed Ienzo, since he was in her way, and ran towards the laboratory that they built. She entered, and saw Xehanort, Braig, Dilan, Even, and Aeleus all huddled up talking among themselves.
Ansem came in afterward, and placed his hand on her shoulder. "Well, now that you're here I might as well tell you then. You see, we're going to do an experiment to repress darkness."
"I wanna help!" Marie exclaimed. "Let me help! Let me help! Let me help! Let me help!"
Ansem rubbed his temples, and then thought long and hard. Marie was very innocent, and did not seem to have any darkness in her heart. It would benefit the both of them, Marie would be able to help, and Ansem may find out more on how to repress the darkness inside the heart.
He turned around, and saw Marie and Ienzo bickering and sticking their tongues out at each other . He sighed, and spoke. "Marie, I'll allow you to help."
By this time Marie had Ienzo in a headlock, and pushed him to the floor. "Really! Yes!"
Ansem raised his brow, he really ought to keep those two apart. Ansem thought of some plans on how to use Marie in his experiment, and then he figured that he would monitor her heart. He would see if it reacted differently than Xehanort's.
When tying Marie up to the machines, everything went well. Her heart rate was normal, and she was breathing normally. There were no signs or abnormality, and she seemed relaxed. Ansem looked at Marie, and she was humming to herself while looking at the books and other machines, Marie was very helpful.
"Everything seems alright," said Ansem. He checked the monitor. "How do you feel?"
"I'm fine!" she giggled. Ansem smiled, and sighed in relief. He heard something, and soon enough, the wires started to fuse. Ansem tried fixing them, but the electricity sparked him, and burned the tip of his finger. The electricity also sparked the monitor and in returned sparked Marie.
She immediately passed out, and the machines returned to normal. Ansem quickly ran to Marie's side, and examined her. She wasn't waking up, but she was breathing. Ansem didn't want to do anything else to Marie, for fear that she could actually die the next time something went wrong.
Ansem sighed, and cursed out loud to himself. How could he even think of putting his studies before the safety of someone as little as Marie. She had called him 'brother' a lot, but he could barely even consider himself her brother after this.
This was a guilt he had to live with for the rest of his life, and he could only wait till she woke up to say how sorry he was.
Monstro's Stomach
-x-
Marie
After defeating the parasite cage heartless, we saw it fall to the floor. It's heart left, and floated into the air. The floor began to shake afterward, and I looked around to see if everyone was alright.
"Run!" shouted Donald. I looked over at Sora, he was calling out to Riku. "Riku! Riku, where are you?"
I took Sora's hand. "Sora, let's go!"
We ran towards the exit.
Captain Hook's cabin
-x-
Riku
Riku stared at Kairi's lifeless body. He felt horrible for not being able to do anything about Kairi's heart.
"So," he looked at Kairi sadly. "Kairi's like a lifeless puppet now?"
"Precisely," Maleficent said.
"And her heart was?" asked Riku.
"Taken by the heartless, no doubt," replied maleficent.
"Tell me!" shouted Riku. "What can I do?"
"There are seven maidens of the purest heart," she started. "We call them the princesses of heart."
"Gather them together," she continued. "And a door will open to the heart of all worlds."
"Within likes untold wisdom," she said. "But in order to actually open the door, and to save Kairi, you need to get Marie. She seems to be connected as well."
"Once open," she said. "you will surely find a way to recover Kairi's heart."
"Now, I'll grant you a marvelous gift," she smiled wickedly. "The power to control the heartless."
Riku glowed a sickly yellow, and then it disappeared. He looked over to Kairi. "Soon, Kairi. Soon."
Gummi Ship

Marie
"That was gross," I said. We were out of Monstro, but only because he had to sneeze us out.
"I sure hope Pinocchio and Geppetto are okay," said Goofy.
"Yeah," agreed Donald. "Hopefully they landed safely somewhere."
I turned to Sora, and he looked sad. "Riku..."
I sighed, I wonder what Riku was even thinking when he wanted to take Pinocchio's heart. I know he wants to save Kairi, but I know there's another way.
Well, anyway. We made it to another planet.
"Okay, guys," said Donald. "Prepare for landing."
"Land where?" asked Sora. "In the sea? We'll drown!"
"Not with my magic, we won't," he reassured. "Just leave it to me."
Atlantica
-x-
Marie
We warped into Atlantica, that's the name of this world, and we were all transformed into fish. I looked around, and I saw that Donald was an Octopus, Goofy was a turtle, and Sora was a shark boy. I was a mermaid who stayed behind a rock for more or less obvious reasons.
I was barely wearing anything, just a tube top type of shirt, if you can even call it a shirt.
And to make things worse, my chest didn't even fill up the top. It was just a puff of air filling it up. It sucks to be flat chested. It really does. Well, hiding behind my rock, I noticed another mermaid coming in, with a much fuller chest than mine. Yeah, sure, mock me why don't you?
A red crab came face-to-face with Donald, and screamed when he saw him. Look, I know Donald is scary, but that's just his face. Wait till he gets angry, then you'll freak.
"Relax, Sebastian," said the mermaid. "They don't look like one of them. Right flounder?"
"I don't know," said a little blue and yellow striped fish, who I'm guessing is Flounder. "There's something weird about them."
Sora started to laugh nervously. "What do you mean?"
The mermaid began to swim around Sora, and started checking him out. I wasn't jealous or anything, no. the fact that she has clams for a bra doesn't add to it as well, no sire.
"They do seem...a little different," she said. "Where are you from?"
Sora began to think. "Uh...We're from kind of far away."
"And we're not really used to these waters," he said, laughing nervously. I then saw him looking around. "Hey, where's Marie?"
I turned around and laid my back on the rock, I was never ever embarrassed or shy about anything, but this was different. It was Sora, and I was barely wearing anything!
I turned to see if they were looking for me, and I came face-to-face with Sora, literally, our faces were in inch away. I blushed like crazy, and started laughing nervously.
"H-hey," I said as I scratched the back of my head. "You found me..!"
"You're acting weird," he immediately said. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing," I said. Still hiding behind my rock. "Nothing at all!"
"Okay then," he said, eyes glaring at me out of suspicion. "Step away from the rock."
"Uhhh," I said, thinking of something. "No, that's alright.."
As I gave an awkward smile, I felt two skinny arms pull me away from my beloved rock. Oh the humanity! Away from my beloved rock! Ooo-
I stepped out of my whining and I looked at Sora, and I noticed he was looking at me...well not my face at least, and blushed. Geez, what a pervert. "Hey, I know I'm flat, but you don't have to look!"
Wha?" he said, he looked at my face, and blushed even more. "Oh! N-no! I wasn't looking there! I wasn't!" he raised his hands in protest, and looked really nervous and scared. I will say, he looked cute like that. But still a pervert nonetheless.
The mermaid that was checking out Sora placed her hand on my shoulder, and she smiled at all of us. "Sebastian can show you how we swim around here!"
Sebastian, the crab, looked from an angry Donald to the happy mermaid beside me. "Ariel, King Triton will not like this!"
Ariel sighed. "Oh, don't worry."
Sebastian sighed as well, and looked at us. "Easy for you to say..Okay, it's time you learn how to swim properly."
He pointed at Founder. "Practice swimming with Flounder. Try to tag him."
I sighed, I really didn't want to be here. Especially not in this get-up.
Radiant Garden
The past
-x-
Marie
As time passed on, Marie was still placed under her coma.
She was visited by King Mickey, who was able to travel to Radiant Garden due to Xehanort opening the door that lead to the world's heart. It tore apart the world's walls, allowing inter-dimensional space travel.
Almost instantly, King Mickey felt Aqua's power in Marie. He was also able to sense a different power, a power completely belonging to Marie alone. He couldn't quite figure out what this power was, but it was filled with incredible light. Mickey placed his Keyblade, the Star Seeker, beside Marie to talk to Ansem. Marie's hand was able to touch the blade, and a small spark appeared between her and the Keyblade. Mickey and Ansem did not see this, but the little spark meant that this Keyblade, the Star Seeker, was chosen by Marie, although unintentionally, as her main blade.
Mickey, being interested, spoke with Ansem as to why Marie fell unconscious. When Ansem told him what happened, Mickey confessed that he felt she was meant to be placed into a coma. They both then began to talk about other stuff, mainly because Ansem felt too sad to talk about Marie.
A month later, Xehanort grew tired of Ansem telling him and his apprentices to cease their dangerous experiments, and decided to do the only natural thing; to dispose of Ansem. But, he figured he would do an experiment out of this, he wanted to see how Marie's heart would react when he disposed of Ansem. He sent Ienzo to check on her.
Ienzo was in the room where Marie was, he didn't like Marie much, so he could only smirk when her heart rate dropped a bit after Xehanort banished Ansem to the Realm of Nothingness. Ienzo reported to Xehanort that Marie was able to sense the loss of Ansem while in her coma, and this made Xehanort interested. He decided to write reports specially made for Marie, and to write on her progress.
But something even more interesting happened, Marie's forehead began to glow, and a heart appeared. It disappeared, but she soon began to speak in her sleep.
"Door..to..Darkness," was what she said, but more words came out. "Keyblade...Seven princesses...Heartless...will find...Kingdom Hearts...must...protect..."
The same light appeared on her forehead, and she stopped talking. Xehanort took note of this, and decided to keep Marie alive. He needed to find more information on the 'Kingdom Hearts' she was talking about.
He smiled coldly afterward, she sounded as if she were speaking in future tense, and this made his smile more evil. Yes, sure if he kept her around, he just might find out the future of his heartless.
Well, that was a lot wasn't it?
You know what Marie is now, but she doesn't. Also, Marie is getting better at her jumps, she really is learning xD
Well, anyways, If the Atlantica scene seemed a bit cracky-crazy, it was mainly due to the fact that:
1. My uncle is extremely sick, and my mother is in constant despair.
2. I broke up with my boyfriend. I saw him with some HOAR and to me, that says you no longer want to stay in a committed relationship, so I told him I didn't want to be with him anymore.
And I needed to write about something funny to keep my mind off of these things, and it did for a while. So sorry for it being cracky-crazy. Also, don't mind the emo-ness of the entire story either, I'm just really sad right now.
Anyway, time for thank yous.
Thank you:
BrooklynHiggans63
For placing this story in your story alert list! Love you!
Now for reviews.
cool:
No pressure, huh? XD
Don't worry, I'm almost done the story, and I don't plan on leaving it incomplete.
sajere1:
Thank you!
I'm thinking of leaving out the fallen angel idea, and having her as an evil raggedy ann doll instead. The fallen angel might come in somewhere else.
And yes, the re:chain of memories sounds confusing, but it's exactly as you say it. She is there, but she isn't.
I'll tell you now that she won't have a nobody, she had pure light in her heart, so she can't have one. The only reason Namine was created was because she was created through Sora's body and soul and Kairi's heart. Kairi has no darkness in her heart either, and if Sora didn't have her heart in him she wouldn't be able to produce a nobody. Kingdom Hearts is confusing, but you REALLLLYYYY have to read in between lines sometimes, and REALLLLLLLY pay attention.

Yes, if I make a sequel, which will be most likely, Organization will know her. Well, some of them, Larxene, Luxord, Marluxia and Demyx won't know her. Just Roxas, Zexion, Lexaeus, Axel, Saix, Xemnas, Xigbar, Vexen, Xaldin, and Xion.
I'll have to wait till KH3 to find out about Aqua. Which I know for a doubt I would want to make a story for it.
XxI-Stole-Your-CookiexX:
Ahaha, fluffy ftw!
And thank you very much, it was a little confusing, but hopefully this chapter clears it up, and tell you WAY more stuff.
Ziddy2343:
Thank you for the compliment! To be honest, I'm not even a Sora fan, I'm more of a Roxas fan [Jesse McCartney!] But I'll have something in stores for him. -laughs evily-
Lele-the-Greek-Geek:
Jealous Sora is jealous, it's his nature ^_-
Thank you very much, I'll admit, I think I suck at fluff. I'm more of the angst, psychological, and tragedy type of person. O_o
Yes, Marie is a tough girl. But it sucks when you have to deal with something by yourself, you're a lot stronger with people by your side.
Tee-hee, I'm glad you noticed. XD
ShimmerMist:
Well, I'm glad you support it, usually some people get mad that we authors like to switch the love that's going around xD
xD and yea, it is lazy. Though thinking on it now, I probably wouldn't call it laziness, just a mild case of 'I-don't-care-what-you-do-ima-do-my-thang-right-har'
Sora did stand in front of it xD, I've noticed he stands in one place while passing flash backs where they're both there. So that's my theory. xD
Yes, Riku has the skill to recognize anything no matter how disfigured or horrible it is. xD
Ruciro:
Yes, it's my I guess, 'trademark' to add mysteries in my stories, I do it for most of my other stories, I think. _
Riku face-palming is awesome-beans! I shall make him do it in the story somewhere, hopefully soon.
And yes, Sora is easily jealous as he is easily distracted.
Well, thank you guys for reading. Sorry if I was being sad or depressed in my responses to your reviews, or if it seemed like it. You guys are awesome, and your reviews make me happy! Thank you! Love you guys!
