***************************************************

Riku came down some time after.

He neither spoke or looked at Sora.

Everyone took a seat in the living room.

" So, what do you guys want to watch?" Asked Yuffie cheerfully.

" Almost every Christmas movie is on T.V."

" Christmas Story!!"

" Rudolph!!!"

" Frosty the Snowman!!"

" Santa Claus is coming to town!!!"

" The Grinch!!!"

Everyone looked at each and then looked down at the T.V Remote that was lying in the middle of the room.

Nobody moved.

" I GOT IT!!!!!"

Everyone dived for it.

Riku grabbed it with his left hand.

" I got it!"

" No I do!"

Yuffie had the other end.

Suddenly Donald snatched it away from them.

" Now I got it!!"

Goofy took the other end and wrenched it from Donald's grasped.

" Now I go it!!'

" Hey!! Give it back you big palooka!!"

Donald kicked him in the shins and Goofy dropped it howling in pain.

Sora grabbed it and held it over his head in triumph.

" HA!! Now I got it!!!"

Everyone dove on top of him.

" Hey!! Get off!!"

Leon, who was watching from the couch, just stood there with one of those big Anime Drops on his head.

" Ummmm….."

Suddenly Kiari popped out of the jumble and held up the remote to the T.V and clicked it on.

"The Grinch stole Christmas" came onto the screen.

She smiled.

" HA! I win!"

Everyone groaned.

Sora slowly stood up and brushed himself off.

" Damn it."

Suddenly Kiari walked over and lightly kissed him on the cheek.

Everyone gasped.

Sora felt his face turn beat red and he turned and looked at Kiari who was smiling.

" Um… What was that for?"

" Mistletoe."

Sora looked up and could see a large jumble of mistletoe hanging from the ceiling.

" What's wrong Sora? Didn't you like it?" Asked Kiari.

Sora gulped.

" Ummm …….. I guess.'

Everyone laughed including Leon.

" Who's idea was it to plant the T.V remote under the Mistletoe anyway?" Sora Asked.

Yuffie gave an evil laugh and stood up on the chair next to her.

" MWAHAHAHA!!! My plan worked!!! I new you to love birds would end up under there sooner or later!! My plan to hook you all up is coming into play!!!"

"What do you mean hook us up?" Asked Donald.

" I already have somebody!"

Everyone OOO'd around him.

" Awwwww.. The duck has a girl friend…."

Donald's eyes flared.

" Why you little….."

He came after yuffie and started to chase her around the house.

" Hey!! Don't leave me out of this!!" Shouted Sora happily.

He began to chase Donald and the rest fallowed him laughing.

***************************************************

Hallow Bastion ( yes folks, this place again.)

Maleficent stood towering over her seeing- thingy ( Don't know what the hell it is.) watching Sora and the others pin yuffie down and start to tickle her.

She glared at them through eyes tired and old but full of menace and fury.

" keybearer…' She said below a whisper. " you might of destroyed me last time, but I will have my revenge!"

She strode out of the room, into the castle chapel and gasped.

All the villains ( Me: hey! I had to bring them back.) were decorating it with Christmas décor.

" What are you fools doing!?" Maleficent shouted.

They all turned and raised there eyebrows at her.

" Its Christmas!" said Ursula. " This place needs some décor."

Maleficent eyes flared.

' We're supposed to be trying to kill the keybearer!!!"

Everyone groaned.

" Oh! Give up already!" Said jafar. " its been a year now and we still haven't got anything!! I'm moving on."

" Yeah!!!" all the villains shouted in agreement.

Maleficent glared hard at them and strode back into her room shaking with rage.

" Christmas!" She spat. " I have more important things to do."

She started to gaze into her looky- thingy when suddenly someone spoke.

" What would you like for Christmas maleficent?"

Maleficent snapped around." Who's there!?"

The voice laughed.

" Well, I guess I could SHOW you who I am."

Suddenly a boy stepped out from the shadows.

He was wearing a black hooded raincoat that covered his whole body and cast his face into shadow. ( the guy in the deep Dive Trailer people.)

" I will not tell you my name because I don't really have one. The kingdom hearts producers have not told the author of this story yet."

( Me: hehehe.)

He took a step closer.

" I already know what you want. Its been haunting you for a year now. Endless nights of planning and thinking but still nothing has come. Your quest to destroy the keybearer."

The boy lifted his head and in the darkness you could make out two glowing yellow eyes.

" I can help you with that.'

" …… How?" Maleficent asked slowly.

The boy walked over to her seeing thingy and whirled his hand around it.

Suddenly a little hologram figure of Sora appeared.

He was running up the stairs in Yuffies place and ran into his room and shut the door.

The hologram now showed Sora's room.

Sora was leaning against the door gasping and whimpering in pain.

He clutched his chest and slid down the wooden door and doubled over shaking.

A small smile played on maleficent lips.

" What's wrong with him?"

The boy looked at her.

" Seeing all his friends again, is bringing up all the painful memories of the past. When he stabbed himself with his friends key blade, a large amount of darkness was born in his heart. When his girl friend rescued him, a lot of that darkness disappeared. But not all of it.

Now whenever a memory of the past enters his mind, the darkness in his heart grows and is eating away at his heart.

All you have to do,"

He held out his hand and a small black, diamond, crystal appeared floating above it.

" is tag it."

Maleficent eyes widened.

" how did you know I wanted the keybearers heart?"

The boys glowing eyes narrowed.

" the power within the keybearers heart is so great, who ever shall possess it would be unstoppable.'

The boy held out the crystal to maleficent and she took it greedily.

She starred at it and smiled evilly.

" I would also like to see him suffer." she added nastily.

The boy smiled under the hood.

" Well there's only one way to truly torcher the keybearer.'

" how?'

" The Twilight glass."

Maleficent raised an eyebrow.

" What's that/'

" I'll show you soon." Said the boy.. " That is, if your willing to work together with me."

He held his hand out.

Maleficent looked at him.

" What's your end of the bargain?" She asked.

The boys smile widened.

" They same thing you want."

Maleficent looked at him suspiciously for a moment and then took his hand.

" When do we start?"

" tonight."

***************************************************

Sora slipped into some pajamas and slid into bed. His head was pounding and his chest hurt terribly.

" What's going on!?' He thought to himself. " Something's wrong with me. I can't take this pain anymore!?'

He pulled the covers over himself and shut his eyes.

Riku came up sometime after everyone had gone to bed.

He paused at Sora's door and looked at it.

' Why had Sora said that!? He asked himself. Was it something he really meant? Or was he being bothered by something?'

He took a step toward Sora's door and listened.

He could here a voice inside.

" Sora?" he called. " its Riku. Listen, I think we need to talk."

No one answered.

Riku opened up the door and slipped in.

It was pitch black except for the lights from outside the window casting a grayish glow on the ceiling.

Riku looked at Sora who was sleeping.

He took a step forward and could here a soft whimper escape Sora's lips.

He looked closer and could see that Sora's face was covered with cold sweat and was etched in fear.

" Stop…." Sora said in his sleep. " Please… leave Riku alone."

Rikus eyes narrowed. ' Was he dreaming about…'

Sora let out another whimper.

"I don't want to go through this any more… please….. Give Riku his heart back. He's my friend."

Rikus heart sank and his expression softened.

' So this is why. This is what has been bugging him.'

He turned around and headed out the door.

" Night buddy." He said softly.

Riku walked out and shut the door behind him.

It was 12:30 in the morning when Sora woke up from his dream.

He quickly sat up in his bed. Cold sweat was dripping off his face and his breath was coming in short gasps.

" I-I don't believe I had that dream again." he said shakily.

He had dreamed about his fight with Ansem and Riku being locked in Kingdom hearts.

He put his head in his hands.

" I didn't need to be reminded of that he said sadly.

Suddenly he became aware of something on his leg.

He looked up and seen a small brown package on his covers.

Sora leaned over and picked it up.

" Who's this from?" He asked curiously.

He turned the package over and over and he herd something moving around inside.

Sora opened it up and looked.

A small black, diamond crystal was laying at the bottom of the box.

Sora raised an eyebrow.

He put the package down and suddenly the crystal floated out of the box.

" What the-"

But Sora had no time to finish his sentence for the crystal had began to glow and shot straight into Soras chest.

Sora cried out in pain.

He felt coldness spread through his body.

His eyes turned a dark blue and the coldness engulfed his mind.

" What the hell!?"

But suddenly his vision went and his mind faded into darkness.

***************************************************

Hallow Bastion

Maleficent stood in the Great Crest area outside.

She was looking down at the darkness below.

The hooded boy stepped out from the door behind her.

" Did you do it?" She asked.

The boy nodded.

" Its been done."

Maleficent smiled evilly.

" Good. Now for the 2nd part."

**********^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^***************^^^^^^^^^*

Me; * Rubs head* I'm O.K now.
