Story Title: Another Side

Author: Shadow Eve

Genre: General

Setting: After Kingdom Hearts. A young man wonders around, not knowing who he

is. But why does he have Sora's memories? Definitely has to do with the Secret

Ending and Deep Dive.

Disclaimer: Heh, heh. This is a first. I never wrote a disclaimer. Anyway, I

don't own any of the Kingdom Hearts Characters. I own some characters, but

they're just minors. Well, atleast most of them are. Moving alone....

Notes: Uh, well. This would be my first KH Fanfiction. I really like writing

originals, but I thought I'd give this a shot. Besides all that, I wanted to see

if I could out do my cousin on this site. ^_^ Review if you want to....

*Sora's Last Memory?*

Thunder crashing.

He laid in the bed, a look of confusion still in place. He and Riku had left that eerie, dark beach three hours ago and still there were so many questions in mind. How did Mickey get out of Kingdom Hearts? And this thing about Nobody? What did it mean? Non existent ones...? None of it made sense, yet he understood that he was one of them. And what about the dark green hooded men? What was there connection with Sora? And who was the two non existent one that he and Riku met before Mickey appeared? Who was the one on the rock? He felt like he met that one before. The hooded man sat up, pulling his hood down. He sighed as he caressed his blondish brown bangs. The feeling of another headache was coming. But, he thought he'd angored it. The pain began to make it worsen though. It was ten times worsen than a migraine. He tumbled off the bed and on to the cold, wooden floor, grimacing in pain.

There stood a boy, that same spiky haired boy named Sora. But, the scenery was too dark and weird to be explained. He was standing in a place where a huge heart was and glowed funny colors. Four orbs were also inside it. The dog and the duck were also there.

"Sora! Sora, look!" The duck yelled.

"The keyhole!" The dog shouted.

The boy holds the keyblade in hand and points it toward the huge heart.

"It won't work! The keyhole's not finished yet!"

"What can we do?"

"Maybe we gotta go wake Kairi up."

"I think you're right. If we free her heart...But...but how?"

The boy looks at a dark keyblade.

"A Keyblade that unlocks people's hearts... I wonder.."

"Sora?" Asked the dog.

The boy approaches the dark keyblade.

"Sora, hold on!" The dog reached out.

"No, wait!" The duck shouted.

The boy looks to them, smiles, and thrust the keyblade in to his heart. When doing this, six hearts shoot out and returns to the six princesses of hearts. One more heart pops out and heads back to the crimson haired girl. The boy lights up and slowly falls.

"Sora.....Sora!" The duck calls out as he runs to the boy.

The girl gets up.

"Sora!" She cries.

She tries to catch him before he hits the ground, but he dissapears.

The boy named Sora is now falling down a dark, neverending abyss.

"What's......What's happening to me? Falling.....Falling....in to darkness."

The boy continues to fall and now appears to be falling down towards the water. Flashes of a silver haired boy and a crimson haired girl appears as the boy to hover over the waters, eye still closed. There's a glimps of light and then everything goes black.

The eyes will close.....

The young man snapped his eyes open to find Riku looking over him. He sat up, seeing the old woman also there. She frowned at him, giving Riku a look that assures something. Riku nods and the old woman walks off to the next room. The now not hooded man looks at Riku, frowning slightly.

"What are you doing here?"

"That old woman brought me here. She said that you passed out in this room. Any flashbacks?"

"Yeah. I think I know who I am now. All that is left is for me to find Sora."

"So, why don't you tell me your name? That way I can actually address to you."

"I can't tell you may real name. You wouldn't understand a thing."

"What's that suppose to mean?"

"When we find Sora, I'll tell you who I am. But, until then, just call me Shin.."

"Fine. So, what are we suppose to do now?"

"I'm pretty sure that the girl named Kairi will appear later, until then, We need to go to the other worlds."

"How?"

"Remember that guy with the glowing eye? Remember how he said that we could visit Sora too?"

"Yeah, what's your point?"

"My point is that the glowing eye man nows how to get to another world. I know he does."

"How are we suppose to find him, Shin?"

"I thinking we go back to the beach area. He and the rock guy must be there."

"Are you absolutely sure we should go ask this guy about world travelling?"

"Yeah. After all, I think we're all the same."

"What?"

"I think its just a theory, but I'll explain it too you later."

They ended up, on that strange beach again. Shin had a confident look on his face as he and Riku walked back to where the rock hooded guy and the glowing eye guy was. Suprisingly, the glowing eye guy stood there, like he was expecting them to come. Riku frowned as Shin placed a smirk on his face.

"I knew you would be here." Shin stated.

"You remember now, don't you?"

"Yeah. Who would've guess that the last flashback would make me remember everything."

"What?" Riku asked, confused.

"Its nothing." Shin replied. "I didn't come here to comfirm that I got my memory back. I came here to ask you something."

"And that's....."

Riku twitched at that last incomplete sentence. The glowing eyed guy's voice seemed to haunt Riku for some reason. The glowing eye glanced at Riku and replied with a smirk that made Riku guess who he was. But, it was impossible to be him. Shin grunted and continued.

"I need to go to Hollow Bastion. How can I get there?"

"Why would you want to do that? I'm sure that he's gone by now."

"No...." Shin said. "I don't wanna go there for him. I know I'll find him at the right time. But, I need to go to Hallow Bastion for another reason."

Shin turned to Riku. "I need to go, alone...."

"Alone, huh? Doesn't bother me...." Riku replied. "But, why.....?"

"I need to see something...It won't take long."

"Exactly where do you need to go?" Glowing eye asked.

"I need to go to Hallow Bastion, before a certain time, though."

"What?"

"Why do you need---?"

"The Ansem Reports are there...."

"And....?" Riku said. "Why are the Ansem Reports so important right now? Sora's got all ten of them."

"There's thirteen...."

"What?"

"There are thirteen of the Ansem Reports. Sora has ten, while the other three are in Hollow Bastion."

"Is that why you want to go there, Shin?" Riku asked. "To find Ansem's reports? Why? Ansem's gone...there's no threat right now."

"Yes there is. Remember what Mickey said. Nobody is a enemy. I've got a feeling that those dark green hoods are heading there right now."

"How? It's not like they got a Gummi!" Riku snapped.

"That's right." Glowing eye replied. "Gummi ships are too vunerable to break threw the barriers. But, I do know a way to get there. I used it when I went to fight Sora."

"What?" Riku asked.

"I call it 'Rip in the Universe'. I only used it once, so don't do it three times. I think if you do, something will happen to all four worlds. Rip in the Universe consists of you having two keyblades. In your case, I'd say that you're already. But, your friend needs to give you back Oblivion for this moment."

"Why?" Riku asked.

"He must wield the dual swords of light in order to do this. I, myself, found another way to do it. But, in turn, I distorted some of Hollow Bastion."

"Riku..." Shin said, but Riku quickly handed Oblivion to Shin.

"Take it. I know that's what you were going to ask me."

Shin smirked. "Thanks."

"Look..." Glowing eye said. "All you have to do is use the power of the sword and walk. You'll create a ripple in the atmosphere and you'll dissapear. Don't stop walking till you see your destination. I hope you know what you're doing."

"I do." Shin replied. "Riku, can you find out anything on those green hooded men from the old Miss baker?"

"I'll try." Riku said.

"Good." Shin said as he gripped the two keyblades, Oathkeeper and Oblivion, tightly.
