Piper sighs to herself as she sat on the beaches of Destiny island before falling backwards and looking up towards the sky thinking about how much she wanted something interesting to happen in her boring life . It had been 21 years since her father Sora had brought peace and suppressed the darkness from all the worlds he had visited in his life before settling down with his sweetheart Kairi on Destiny island and starting a family with her . Piper slowly got up from where she had been laying before walking back towards her her vacation house she had on the island , still thinking how much she missed her father who had only just died three years ago to that very day .

After walking into her vacation house she had on the island after having moved out on her own when she was eighteen and started live in the world called Hollow Bastion, before coming back to Destiny island after being told by her boss who she honestly hated quite a bit that she needed to go on a vacation. Piper wasn't going to complain about getting away from her boss or her job for a while , so as she walked towards the kitchen to make herself something to eat for dinner she thought quite a bit on what she wanted to make her self . So After grabbing a few items in her fridge she threw them in to a pan and started to cook them while humming a bit of a tune while she cooked. Once Piper was done cooking she plated her dinner which just so happened to be a beef stir - fry , then Piper walked to her living room holding her plate of food in her left hand and glass of rum and coke in her right hand then she sat down on to the couch before quietly and slowly eating her dinner. Once she finished eating her dinner, she placed the plate of food down onto her coffee table before summoning her Keyblade she nicknamed " Noir " before pulling out a cloth and some polish she liked to use when polishing her keyblade, then she went to polishing her keyblade which she took a lot of pride in doing.

Then Piper yawns after she finished polishing her keyblade,then she got up placed her dishes into the kitchen sink planning on doing them the next morning seeing she was feeling quite tired. Then she placed the polish back into the end table's drawer which was placed between the left side of her couch and one her side chairs, then she picked up the cloth and walk to her bedroom. Once she was in her bedroom she walked towards her bedside table and turned on the lamp before throwing the cloth into her basket which was filled with quite some laundry she had yet to do, then she slowly started strip out of the black skull tank top and ripped jean shorts she had been wearing that day and throws them also into her laundry basket before walking towards her closet and pulling out a simple black and white lace gown she owned before placing it on to her thin framed body.

After she got in to her nightwear she walked to her vanity and sat down on the small stool in front of her before picking up the hair brush sitting on the vanity and started to brush out her long Ruby red hair she had, she liked to have her hair nicely brushed out just before going to bed, then she let out another yawn as she placed the hair brush back on top of the vanity, before looking at her turquoise colored eyes and giving her self a small smile. She got up from the stool she was sitting on and walked over towards her bed before climbing into it honestly hoping to get a good night's rest unlike the so many night's that had come before . But just before falling nicely to sleep Piper reaches over to her bed side table and turns off the lamp she had on it causing the room to be blanketed into darkness .

Meanwhile in the Realm of Darkness, Ansem who was standing in his make shifted war room looking at a few different maps he had laid out on top of the large table , if one was to look at the many maps Ansem had laid out each one was full of different worlds he had tried to take over in the past, now he was trying to figure how to bring back both darkness to these worlds but also how to get himself out of the Realm of darkness. After looking at the maps for some time Ansem was getting quite annoyed that he still hadn't figured out a way to break out of the Realm of Darkness and bring back Darkness to all the worlds. The only thing he so far had going for him was a scroll one of the heartless was able to find for him a few days ago he was still working on translating it to find out what was written on it, he was hoping it had some kind of clue on how he could break the barrier his greatest enemy had placed around the Realm of darkness 21 years ago.

Then Ansem walks out of his war room think it was high time he got some kind of sleep before going back to the scroll in the morning. After walking down quite a few hallways in his huge mansion Ansem had summoned with his magic, he walked into his bedroom,just as he was about to get ready for bed he suddenly felt a strange faint flicker of darkness coming from the Realm of light which he thought was a bit strange but he wondered what could be causing the very faint flicker of darkness .Then Ansem got onto his bed and slowly closed his eyes, once Ansem's eyes were closed he drifted slowly into sleep unbeknownst to him he was drifting towards the flicker of darkness though the power of dreams.
