Quest for Kairi
Sora sat on the roof of the accesory shop looking up at the stars with his now cold blue eyes. Though if one looked closely enough at those seemingly emotionless optics, they would have seen a tint of sorrow.
'I've lost everything now...my island, Riku, Kairi, and even...my heart...'
You could still find the girl.
'Kairi?! Where is she?!'
There was silence for a moment, and then:
Search in a place where children will always be children. You will find her there. However...
'However?'
Her heart is here.
'What?!'
Within you...lies your friend's heart.
Sora sat frozen. Kairi's heart was inside him? What else could go wrong? No, scratch that. He didn't want to know.
Your Keyblade...
'Huh?'
It holds the power now to not only seal Keyholes, but to open them. And to unlock people's hearts.
'Is that supposed to be some kind of explination?'
The voice was gone again, so no reply was recieved. But Sora knew what he would do. He was going to find Kairi.
And give her back her heart.

Donald and Goofy could be found searching once again for Sora that morning. They had, at this point, combed the entire second and third districts, and now were searching the first. Their progress was halted when Yuffie came running up to them.
"Err..." she began, "I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but your gummi ship's gone."
"WHAT?!" the two cried in unison, before rushing off to see for themselves.
Sure enough, the ship was gone. And now they knew why they couldn't find Sora.
* * *
It was dark when Sora awoke, but he didn't mind. He was comfortable where he was, so it didn't matter. And then he remembered what he had set out to do, and forced himself into full awareness.
He rose from the blankets he had been laying on, and looked around. It took a moment for his eyes to adjust, but when they did he found himself in a small room, completely empty save for the blankets he lay on, and the other boy in the corner. Wait, other boy?
"Hey, so you're finally awake!" the boy said cheerily. The...pure happiness about him irritated Sora to great lengths.
"Who are you?" Sora questioned, his empty eyes boring into the other's cheery ones.
"Name's Peter Pan," he replied, unfazed by Sora's annoyed gaze.
The weilder of the Keyblade nodded shortly, then went about looking or a way out of the room.
"So...how'd you get here?" Peter asked.
"That's not your business," Sora spat.
"Sheesh, you don't have to be so hostile!" he said, frowning.
He was granted a scowl, then Sora found the door. He brought the Keyblade into his hands, then tapped the lock. He tested the knob, then pushed open the door. Peter blinked.
"Hey, how'd you do that?"
Sora did not reply, but did scowl again at the boy in green following him.
"Hey, it's just a question! What's with you anyway?"
"I'm here to find someone, not waste my time talking to you."
"Hey, I'm looking for someone, too! So maybe we could help each other?"
He was about to give another nasty reply, when he caught himself. This...this wasn't like him at all.
"Look, I'm sorry, I'm just having a bad week. Maybe we can help each other..."
Peter nodded enthusiasticly.
"Yeah! I know my way around this ship pretty well, and you could open the locked doors!"
Sora rolled his eyes, but nodded. And the two set off about their quest.
(I hope this chapter was okay, though kinda unclear. I'll try to answer any questions people may have concerning the fic so far, as long as the answer won't give away the story. 'Til next time, then!)
