Rai shook Goofy awake.
"Goofy? You okay? You got hit pretty hard there." said Rai, as Goofy's eyes started to open.
"Yeah. I'm okay. Where's Donald?" asked Goofy.
Rai pointed to where Donald was lying in a heap.
"Donald!" cried Goofy.
Goofy ran over and shook Donald awake too.
"Donald! Are you okay? Speak to me!" Goofy yelled, shaking the unconscious duck.
"Wha? G-goofy!" Donald breathed a sigh of relief. "Yea. I think I'm alright. Hey," Donald looked Goofy, "what's Rai looking at?"
Goofy turned around. Rai seemed to be stooping over something, but his back was blocking whatever it was. Donald slowly stood, and he and Goofy walked over to Rai. He was saying something to the object that they couldn't see.
"So, can ya talk little fella? Do ya have a name or something?" said Rai, bending over the thing.
"Who are you talking t..." Donald walks over and looks down at the Heartless, "BWAAAAAAHH!!!"
"It's okay! He won't hurt you. In fact, you can thank him that you're alive. He destroyed that huge Heartless." said Rai, matter-of-factly.
"Darkside." retorted Donald, "But I still don't trust it. It's a Heartless for crying out loud!"
"Yeah, but... there's something about him. The way he looks at me." started Rai.
"Well, it's not coming with us." said Donald, stamping his foot.
"You know, I remember Grandpa saying that you were awfully stubborn." said Rai with a scowl at Donald.
Donald stuck his tongue out at Rai.
"Look, I'm the Master Keyblade owner, and I say he goes." Rai said.
And I'm the one who owns the Gummi Ship, and I say it doesn't." said Donald.
"I have my own!"
"I saw the Darkside destroy it before we found you."
"Grrr."
Donald stuck his tongue out again.
"Aw, com'on Donald. The Heartless doesn't seem to be bad. In fact, it's kinda cute. Hey Rai, shouldn't we name it?" said Goofy cheerfully.
"Yeah, you're right." said Rai, instantly forgetting his and Donald's fight.
"Am I the only one who has noticed that this thing is a Heartless!? The things can't be..." started Donald.
"How about Albert? I like that name." said Goofy, cutting Donald off in mid-sentence.
"Or mabye Al!" said Rai.
"Rrrrrr..." growled Donald, fists clenched.
"No, I like Albert." said Goofy, ignoring Donald.
"ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING TO ME!?" yelled Donald.
"I've got it! Ren!" announced Rai.

"BWAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!" cried Donald.
"Yeah, Ren. I like that name." Goofy turned to Donald, "What do you think Donald?"
Donald fainted.
"Wonder what's wrong with him?" said Goofy, oblivious to Donald's past rage.
"But we need to find out why the Heartless are reappearing." shrugged Rai, "Hmmm, maybe Sid knows something."
"Maybe. Hey could you help me lift Donald?" asked Goofy.
"Yeah, sure." answered Rai.
They got Donald onto Goofy's shoulder, and Rai called to the Heartless now named 'Ren' to follow them.
"These seem like nice people. It go with them. Maybe they can help it." thought the Heartless now named Ren.
And with that it waddled away after them.
