"This world...is still too small."
Destiny Islands were really a peaceful place, especially at night. A fresh breeze was caressing Young Xehanort's hair, as he and Vanitas were hiding in some bushes which were surrounding a little town.
"Well, small indeed but also hiding a little something." Vanitas smirked as he summoned a little blue Unversed.
"Do you remember the plan ?" Asked Young Xehanort with a surprised tone.
"Of course. I'll send this little guy after my brother's light, and the small punk will be curious and follow him outside. i'll just have to catch him.
-This will work, unless the Sora of this timeline is different.
-Well, he better not be.
-..You MUST leave him unharmed."
Vanitas shrugged and sent off his Unversed to the town.
"Follow Ventus' light."
It was not long.
The town was small and Sora had been easy to find.
The Unversed sneaked by the opened window. Five years old Sora was sleeping, dressed in a blue pajamas and hugging his teddy bear.
The little creature glimped on Sora's bed and poked him on his side. He repeated the action until Sora started giggling.
He woke up, having heavy eyes and yawning.
"Come on, Riku…"
He turned to the Unversed and yelped, recoiling and putting his teddy bear in front of him.
The little monster approached Sora, who tried to act brave.
"Do...do not attack me, monster under m-my bed !"
He was shaking hard, not at all expected to Vanitas who appeared in the room, helmet on.
"This isn't the "monster under your bed", you idiot."
Sighed Vanitas as Sora was agape and was holding scared eyes.
Vanitas sighed again.
"I guess I'll have to do the job by myself."
Sora tried to run but the masked boy caught him by his arm and put his other hand on his mouth.
"Mmhh..! Mhhh…!"
Sora was struggling back as much as he could, and he bite Vanitas' hand.
The man grabbed his wrist in a stronger way, almost on the point of breaking it.
"I'm supposed to not hurt you, but we don't need you to be in a perfect state after all."
Vanitas announced within an evil laugh as Sora cried and stopped to struggle immediately.
Vanitas opened a dark corridor, ready to leave, but the door suddenly opened. Sora's mother appeared, she had been alerted by her son's screams.
"S-Sora?! Who are you?! What are you doing to my son?!"
Sora tried to reach her mom with his other arm, but Vanitas caught it with his hand holding Sora's other wrist.
"Don't even try, little guy."
Vanitas ordered with a calm yet threatening voice.
Sora's mother ran to Vanitas but the Unversed stopped her as the masked boy vanished into the dark corridor.
Vanitas and Sora safely left the corridor and landed outside the town, Sora still crying of terror and physical pain.
Young Xehanort approached them, making Sora trying to struggle as he was believing Young Xehanort was a random person and would help him. But, to his fear, he wasn't.
"Here we meet again, Sora." Xehanort said, in a soft tone, touching the kid's cheek slowly.
Poor little Sora was scared to death. He continued to cry, firmly closing his eyes.
"We can leave now, Vanitas."
The boy nodded.
"Mission cleared, hehe…"
He laughed off and made his Unversed disappear before they all entered another dark corridor created by Young Xehanort...
