Gakupo groaned and pushed Hisoka as they walked to their ship, "I can't believe you!"

"Well, sorry! That monster freaked me out!" Hisoka protested.

Gakupo crossed his arms over his chest and snorted. "What did this 'monster' look like, exactly?"

Hisoka sputtered his lips as he thought. "Uh…girl with light brown hair, had glasses. Black shirt with only one sleeve…ripped jeans in black knee-high boots…had this big ass black angel wing coming out of her right shoulder."

"…Really, Hisoka…? Really?" Gakupo whacked Hisoka on the back side of the head.

"OW…! Dude, that hurt!" Hisoka was rubbing the bump on his head. "What was that for?!"

"For being an idiot…" Gakupo huffed. "That 'monster' you just described didn't sound 'I'm going to shit my pants' scary at all. You have any idea how much of a laughing stop that'd make out of you back at HQ, Hisoka? What did she do to you that was so scary, huh?"

Hisoka thought for a second. "…Now that you mention it…she wasn't scary at all. Must have been that look she gave me."

"What look?"

"Remember when Minato knocked over Yumi's vase that held…you know…?"

"The 'I'm going to murder you by cutting you into tiny pieces' look?"

Hisoka snapped his fingers and pointed at Gakupo. "Bingo."

"Now I don't blame you…hell, I think I would've crapped my pants if I saw that look on me…" Gakupo sighed. "It doesn't matter now…she and those little Keyblade Wielders now have the Chest and the Key."

"Wait…she's one of the Keyblade Wielders, right?" Gakupo nodded. Hisoka continued, "I fought one of them before. She just had a wing, nothing even that scary! As far as attacks go, she only still has magic and the Keyblade, she's as harmless as a little kitten to me...but just to be sure for now while their guard is down I'll just launch another sneak attack and grab the Key! As long as I do that then that will be fine the Chest can wait as long as I have the Key the world is good as ours!"

Gakupo sent him a smirk. "There's the Hisoka I know! And there's a big chance that they have the Chest, too."

"Then I'll snatch them both." Hisoka turned on his heel. He said over his shoulder, "I'll be right back." His body burst into a hundred of crows, they took off to the sky and got out of Gakupo's sight.

Gakupo leaned against the ship that brought them here. "Just don't screw up…" he mumbled.

Katie had the Chest tucked under her arm like a basketball as she and Render made their way through the overgrowth. She yelled when she finally stepped out into the open, "Riku!"

Riku turned around and smiled. He waved, "Hey."

"I'm so sorry that I left—"

"It's okay. You had to go find Render." Riku eyes went down to the Chest. "I see that you got the Chest."

"You have no idea what I had to deal with to it get back…" Render huffed.

Riku chuckled slightly. "The Remaining?"

"Pretty much, yeah."

Katie looked around. "Um...where's Elizabeth and those two sorry excuses of pirates?"

"They went to the shore, I think. To get their boat ready to sail." Riku suddenly made a frown. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing!" Katie lied.

Riku raised an eyebrow, picking up the fib. He opened this mouth to reply but was interrupted by a: "Riku!" Riku turned and waved at Sora and Roxas. "Did you have the Key?"

Sora nodded. "Yeah!" He motioned his head to Jack. "He has it."

Jack walked over to Katie and tapped the Chest. "I'd be taking that now, lass."

Katie eyed Jack for a second then shrugged. She tossed it to him. "Have a party."

Jack placed his ear against the seaweed-green chest, as if he was listening for something. "Ah. The thump-thump's still there…" he set the Chest on the floor in front of himself and took the Key off from around his neck. He slowly placed the Key into the keyhole and turned it, square security bolts suddenly protrude. He slowly opened the small Chest's lid and his eyes widened at what was inside.

Sora peeked into the Chest and quickly looked away, his hand covering his mouth. "Oh my God, what is that?!"

Roxas and Riku had a little peek, also. Their reactions where the same as Sora's…except Roxas wasn't able to hold it in. If he hadn't moved, he would've barfed on Katie's boots.

"That is a heart, Sora." Katie answered.

"That's not a heart!" Sora protested, his eyes averted from the Chest and squeezed shut. "Hearts are shaped like this!" he made a heart with his hands.

"When it comes out of a Heartless. Your hearts actually look like that."

Sora shook his head. "Nope. Not going to believe it."

Katie rolled her eyes. "Fine, have it your way."

"Why aren't you three fazed by it?" Riku asked.

"Deer hunting and living on a farm." Katie answered.

"Pirate." Jack responded.

Render just shrugged. His eyes suddenly darted to the side when he heard a tree twig snap. "Did you hear that—"

"Meteor!" Katie yelled. "Everybody! Run!"

Jack fumbled to get the Chest into his grip. Sora grabbed the pirate Captain by the arm and dragged him away. "Jack, we got to go!"

Just as everyone cleared, a large rock crashed into the earth. A sonic wave pushed everyone backwards. Render ever-present frown curled into a snarl. "I have a pretty good idea who's that was…"

The meteorite faded away, leaving nothing but an empty space. Katie's eyes narrowed when a crow appeared by the Chest…then two…then fifteen. The next thing they knew, the floor was black due to all of the crows. They half gasped when the crows formed together to make a silhouette of a human, the birds broke away to reveal a The Remaining member.

"Hisoka…" Render growled.

Katie's eyes widened in fear at Hisoka. "X-Xigbar…?"

"Ugh, not you too…my name is Hisoka Usotsuki, not Xigbar!" Hisoka yelled. He pointed at Katie. "Hey, I challenge you!"

Katie raised an eyebrow. "What is this? Pokémon?" she waved him off. "No thanks. I'll pass."

Hisoka smirked. "That's what I thought you were going to say…" he kicked up the opened Chest to his hands. He took out his staff and pointed the end at the heart that beated inside. The end of the staff glowed red.

"Don't, you little miscreant!" Jack yelled.

"Then fight!" Hisoka growled. "If I win, I take both the Key and the Chest. If she wins, you get the Chest and the Key and I'll leave the planet. Pretend like this never happened."

Katie leaned her head back and let out a long, suppressed sigh. She reached down to her leg and like lightning; she drew out a triple-barrel pistol from her hoister. Its end pointed at Hisoka, she clicked the hammer back. "I'm going to say this again…I'm not interested." With her other hand, she motioned Hisoka over. "Give it back. Now."

"I like her." Jack whispered to Sora. "Very pirate like move she just pulled."

Hisoka laughed. "Wow! You're really straight to the point, aren't you?"

"Don't make me shoot you…" Katie growled.

Hisoka raised an eyebrow and examined Katie's facial expression. His lips pursed when he couldn't tell if she was bluffing or not. "Look, Keyblade Wielder. That's my deal, and if you don't accept the challenge, I'll just be on my way."

Katie groaned and twirled her pistol back into its hoister strapped on her leg. "Fine."

"You sure?" Riku asked.

Katie nodded. "Yeah." She softly chuckled. She tapped her Mark of Mastery emblem. "Do you know what this means, Hisoka?"

"No…"

"This is a Mark of Mastery emblem. It means that I passed my Mark of Mastery exam and received training."

"Okay…and…?"

Katie snorted a laugh. "It means I'm a Keyblade Master, Hisoka. Not a Keyblade Wielder. You should know that there aren't very many Keyblade Wielders now a-days. Only a hand full, the rest are Keyblade Masters."

Hisoka gulped. 'She's not a harmless kitten...!'

Katie wielded her Keyblades. "You still want to fight? Or do you want to forfeit?"

Hisoka set down the chest and tapped it shut, a crystal barrier formed around it. "Just in case any of you get any ideas…" he motioned his staff at Katie. "Ladies first."

Katie rolled her eyes. Over her shoulder, she told them, "Go. I'll handle this."

"You better get me Chest back, mate." Jack told her.

"I will, trust me."

"Be careful." Riku added.

"I will!" Katie made sure that everyone left before her attention went back to Hisoka. Her wing burst out of back. She slowly approached Hisoka. "Bring it on, and howl in terror!" Her right hand started to glow green, her wing fully extended. Feathers broke loose from her wing and zoomed towards Hisoka.

All he could see was darkness and he suddenly felt weak. When the darkness disappeared, he fell over, breathing hard. He was shaking like crazy. "Wh-what did you do to me…?"

"I gave you a chance to forfeit, Hisoka. And you ignored it…" Her wing folded back into her back and she flipped a piece of hair out of her face. "That was a move called: 'Black Fury'. It's a move that we one-winged angels can only pull off. Simply put, I poisoned you."

"What?!" Hisoka yelled. "Then how am I supposed to fight you?!"

"Man up." Katie snapped. She went into a fighting stance.

Hisoka struggled to get up to his feet. "Fire!"

Katie jumped out of the fireball's way. Chaos Ripper burst with dark flames. She charged Hisoka, she cut his side. Hisoka gasped and staggered backwards, clutching onto his side, hissing in pain and his eyes dilated. Katie stuck her palm on Hisoka's stomach and whispered, "Thunder." Hisoka screamed in pain as the electricity ran through his veins. Katie let Hisoka go; he collapsed to his knees and coughed up some blood. Katie gripped Hisoka by his shoulder-cloak and yanked him up to his feet, she shoved him back.

Hisoka was wheezing for air. "You…you really are…a monster…"

Katie's eyes flared with anger then they softened. She looked at the ground and shouldered her way past Hisoka and over to the chest. She chopped Darkness' Master at the crystal barrier; it shattered like fine china hitting concrete. She grabbed the Chest and lifted it up, tucking it back under her arm. She turned to Hisoka and pointed her Keyblade at him. Hisoka winced, he gasped when he heard a chime above his head. The pain stopped and he felt new again.

Hisoka clapped his hands on his body, trying to figure out what Katie did. "What did you do?"

Katie walked over to Hisoka and stopped beside him, facing the other way. "Never return to this planet, Hisoka." She dropped the Chest to his feet and continued on.

"Hey—wait!" Hisoka yelled after her, picking up the Chest. "But I lost—"

"Just get out of here, Hisoka." Katie growled. She disappeared in the overgrowth.

Hisoka blinked and looked at the Chest in his hands. He ran to his ship.

Katie looked over her shoulder and made an evil smirk, she reached into her shirt to pull out Davy Jones' heart. "Sucker…" What Hisoka told her echoed in her head: "You really are a monster." Katie sighed and felt her chest tie into a knot. 'Have I really become a monster…?

EXTENDED ENDING:

The Remaining HQ

Yumi opened the Chest and growled, "Idiot! This thing is empty!"

"WHAT?!" Hisoka screamed.

Gakupo whacked Hisoka on the back of the head. "Moron..."

Yumi threw the Chest at Gakupo. "Return it...it's nothing but a space-waster..."

"Yes, ma'am." Gakupo left and went back to the Caribbean, putting the Chest in a rowboat.
