*I don't own ANY of the Kingdom Hearts characters or Final Fantasy VII characters. I only own Katie and her cat, Venitas.

"It's good to be on two legs again, that's for sure." Lea's voice broke the awkward silence.

Riku nodded in agreement, "Yeah. I'll never get used to wielding a Keyblade in my mouth, which was difficult!"

"Tell me about it; that's why I used claws and teeth more than my Keyblades." Katie added. Her shoulders drooped. "But the Pride Lands was the last world over here..."

"That's why we're going back to Yen Sid's tower, to start over." Repliku told Katie. In the corner of his eye, he noticed Sora was having a hard time with his glider. "You okay over there, Sora?"

Sora shrugged. "I dunno. My glider is acting weird. It's trying to get me off course!"

"You wanna stop for a bit?" Katie asked.

"Nah, I'll be-" Sora suddenly rocketed away from the group.

"Sora! Where are you going?!" Kairi yelled after him.

"I have no idea!" Sora yelped.

The Keyblade Wielders looked at each other then shrugged. They went after the out-of-control-Sora.

"Sora, get your butt back here!" Katie yelled, leading the group of gliders at full speed.

"I can't! I have no control on this thing!" Sora cried. A large world came into view. "I thought you guys said there weren't any worlds left in this sector!"

"Well, thanks to your glider, we've been in hyperdrive for the past ten minutes! Who knows where we ended up!" Lea grumbled. Riku recognized the world as they got closer but before he could say anything, the Keyblade Wielders broke the atmosphere and everything went white.

Katie looked around and quickly recognized the surroundings. "Looks like Sora's gilder took us to Radiant Garden." She blankly stated.

"Leon must've summoned me or something." Sora said. He took the lead. "C'mon, let's go to Merlin's."

"Wonder what's up? Looks fine to me." Repliku mumbled as they walked through town.

Katie shrugged and sighed, "Ya never know with this world. It's sometimes as unstable as the loyalty to Shinra."

"Shin-what?" Riku repeated with an eyebrow raised.

Katie mentally slapped herself. 'Crap, of all places to mention that I pick this place.' "Um…you know what? Nothing, never mind. Just—don't tell Leon and the others I know what that is. Especially Aerith and Tifa. Cloud too if he's even here."

"How do you know Cloud? You've never met him." Sora questioned.

Katie chuckled and answered, "My world knows everything about other worlds, remember?" 'Plus I'm friends with his dead friend.' Sora's mouth shaped into an 'o' and continued on.

"Fluffy! Come baaaaack….!" The Keyblade Wielders heard a yell as they got closer to Merlin's. A few seconds later, a large black and yellow cat skidded around the corner and rushed towards the Keyblade Wielders.

The cat jumped literally jumped into Katie's arms. Katie stared at the cat with wide eyes, she knew this cat. She'd know it from anywhere. "Venitas?!" she yelped. "What are you doing in Radiant Garden?!"

"You know this cat?" Lea asked.

Katie nodded. "Yeah, he's my cat. That I left on Earth. I don't know how he got—" she narrowed her eyes at Venitas. "You jumped into that big old dark portal that Xehanort made to capture me, didn't you? Huh? Didn't you?" Venitas meowed and purred. "And that means yes."

Like a bullet, the hyper-active, self-appointed ninja Yuffie came around the corner and almost ran Katie over. "Oh, you found Fluffy!" Yuffie chirped. "He's always running away from me! Come here, Fluffy!"

Sora stifled a laugh. "Uh…Yuffie?"

"Yeah?"

"That's Katie's cat, Venitas." Kairi giggled.

"What…?!" Yuffie pouted.

"It even says on his collar that his name is Venitas." Katie told Yuffie. Katie suddenly remembered that Venitas' tag was the SOLDIER logo, she quickly yanked it off.

Yuffie's shoulders drooped. "Aw, man! I thought he was mine to keep! He showed up right after you guys left!" She straightened up and said, "Oh, yeah! You guys need to get to Merlin's! Leon needs you right away!"

Congrats to Shadowclaw98 for guessing the next world correctly! You sir get a virtual cookie! *Sends you said cookie*

I'm sorry that I made this chapter so short you guys! I just can't think anymore! It doesn't really help that I'm sick either...DX All I know is that I'm going to make this trip to Radiant Garden more connected to Final Fantasy VII because 1) I can. And 2) Square Enix left out very important events that surrounded FFVII and altered it's storyline in Kingdom Hearts.

Fun Facts!: Katie often makes references when she speaks. Especially FFVII references.

Bless your face. And if you sneezed while reading this KH fanfic then bless you. Peace off. BOOP!
