A/N: And now you get the letter. Yay bad plot... wait. I mean boo.

Chapter 3: Notice

Dear Kadaj,

It seems big brother doesn't approve of Riku.

Our little brother was attacked the night before.
I plan to resolve this issue between the two of

them so I have followed our little brother.

Please stay with his friends; the keyblade

master and the Princess of Heart. I will return

with Riku as soon as possible. Take care.

-Yazoo

"You! You know!?" Sora blurted out. He had been reading over Kadaj's shoulder the whole time. The teen was surprised to learn that Kadaj and Yazoo knew that he was the keyblade master!

"Yeah, Kairi isn't the only one from another world, but that doesn't matter." Kadaj replied with a serious look on his face. It was clear just how worried over his younger brother he was. Sora had only seen that face once before. It had been that time when Riku was twelve and climbed up to the top of their play island and couldn't get back down. Yazoo tried climbing up after him, but failed. In the end it had been Loz who got him down about two hours later.

"We need to focus on-" Kairi was cut of by a noise that was faint at first but grew louder. It sounded like an engine. Kairi looked out the window. "Sora look! It's a gummi ship!"

Sora didn't believe his friend at first so he joined her by the window. Sure enough off in the distance was a gummi ship. "We're going to have fun explaining that one… Huh?" The keyblade master turned only to see Kadaj was no longer there. "Where'd he go?"

The two teens wandered into the hall way in search of the man. Both were poking their heads into rooms until the found their target. He was found retrieving something from underneath his bed. It seemed to be some sort of sword.

"I will find him, no matter what." Kadaj stated coldly. He walked pass the two without another word. Sora followed him with Kairi close behind. Once they got outside the gummi ship was nowhere in sight.

"Where did it go?" The spiky-haired teen asked. He looked around but there was nothing in sight.

Kadaj sent him a look that read 'you're stupid' which didn't seem to nice. "There aren't very many places to land a gummi ship, my guess is the beach." With out waiting for an answer he ran ahead leaving Sora with Kairi. The two bolted after him.

Once they had reached the beach they were glad to see Kadaj had been correct. What wasn't so pleasant was the sight of the silver man glaring daggers at the King and his subjects. It seemed Kadaj had entered a staring contest to the death against the King, along with Donald and… well Goofy didn't seem to know how to glare so he just gave a really mean look instead… okay it wasn't that mean looking but he wasn't trying really hard to look mad! Sora wasn't sure if he should laugh of feel sorry for the poor guy.

"What's going on here?" Kairi suddenly spoke up. This seemed to immediately catch everyone's attention much to Sora's surprise. Donald gave a squawk or surprise and Goofy gave one of his 'ayhuck's.

King Mickey let out a huge sigh. "Well fellas, I'm afraid I have some bad new…" the mouse stated sadly. He stared at the ground as if afraid to make eye contact with anyone.

"About Riku right?" Kadaj said with a far from friendly smile. "Now be a good little lab rat and-"

"That's it!" Donald cried as he lost his temper. "Thunder!" The duck screamed in an attempt to obliterate the man who dared to disrespect the king.

"Reflect!" Sora screamed in desperation. He was not going to let his best friend's brother died because some bird had anger management issues. It worked and everyone was safe, but surprise. "Look, I don't know what problems to you guys have but can we put that aside for now? For Riku's sake? I mean he's our friend, and Kadaj he's your brother!" A loud 'WHAT!?' came from the trio of animals. "You guys didn't know?" Sora scratched the back of his head and started to wonder if he said the wrong thing.

Donald shook his head. "I can't believe it! How can Riku, your best friend, be related to this thing?"

Kadaj gave the duck a look of pity. "Oh, is it too much for you little bird brain to handle?" He sneered. Kadaj seemed like worse a person every second, though Sora shouldn't be surprised. They had never spent much time with each other.

"What!?"

"Donald!"

"Dogs have cleaner mouths than humans!"

"What?" Sora blinked at Goofy. Seriously, that was the most random thing he had heard in weeks. "They do not!" He suddenly exclaimed. That was Sora, easily side tracked.

"Well…" Once again Kairi had done it; she had said nothing important but had everyone's attention. How'd she do that? Must have been a princess of heart thing. They always seemed to have a habit of getting people's attention.

"There was this study… but that's not the point!" The young girl shook her head. "This is about Riku!"

A silver haired teen named Riku stumble through a door and into the world of RadiantGarden. He was tired, annoyed, and wanted to go home; but he couldn't. He just didn't have the energy to do so. It frightened him a little, that something so simple made him so weak. He was forced to lean on the wall of a nearby building for support. How embarrassing!

Zack came walking through the door and caught sight of Riku. He opened his mouth to speak but the silver haired teen shot him a look that told him not to ask. So much for keeping his pride in tact.

After the half-dark key bearer settle himself of the ground and relaxed his tense muscles a thought came to mind. Why kill him? Why kill him of all people? It didn't seem random. Was this person targeting keyblade wielders or was it just him? Why was he first? Why not face him? Wait… that was a stupid question. He came back as a ghost so if he saw his killer's face he could tell someone who murdered him.

A/N: And that is all I got. Yeah... Next up is In hearts.

Assylax the Nobody, Yeah, I play Skyrim from time to time. Haven't got very far, can only FUS RO!

David Noklevername, Why are you only on chapter 2? It's going to take you forever to catch up. And no, they have no personalities. That is against the rules for bad fanfiction.

CirciFox81314, Yeah, Riku is a dead man walkin'. And I'm glad you liked it.
