Chapter 1

iSora...When will you come back to me? It's been a year sine we last saw. I need you here./i Kairi stood on the seashore looking out at the sky. The sky in which lead to other worlds. Amongst those worlds her love was battling against the heartless. Some day Sora, we will reunite. You promised. A tear shed from her eye.

A girl stepped next to her. "Thinking about him again?" The inhabitants of Destiny Islands believed it was Riku who Kairi cried over day and night. "He'll return Kairi. Riku always keeps his promises."

Kairi blinked back tears, "You're right Selphie. Riku never breaks promises."

But does Sora?

The boy in the black clothes sighed, "It's been 1 year and /i we haven't found King Mickey nor Riku. We don't even have the slightest sign of where they are. Sometimes I just to give it up."

Goofy sat next to the boy. "Gawrsh, Sora, we'll find King Mickey and your friend, there, Riku."

"First thing's first! We need to find Pluto. That letter could have important information on where to find the King!" Donald, the wizardy duck, blabbered.

"We can't even find a dog! How are we suppose to find a backdoor to Kingdom Hearts?" It just wasn't the same Sora any more. His seperation from Riku, Kairi, his family, his island all built up on him. "Why did the keyblade choose me?" Sora jumped on to a bed and rolled up in the sheets.

They had been in Traverse Town, and Cid lent them 2 rooms. One for Sora, another for Goofy and Donald.

"We'll be going to bed now, Sora. G'night." Both him and his companion left the room. Leaving Sora in darkness.

Sora flickered on a lamp. From his shirt he pulled out a picture of. His fingers over the picture as a tears dropped from his eyes. It was him, Kairi, and Riku standing in Destiny Islands, in their youth. They were all hugging and smiling. "I promise I'll reunite us."

Sora closed his eyes, and he was asleep in minutes.

Kairi sat in the secret place all alone. She was bawling her eyes out, as she did whenever she saw the drawing on the cave wall. Foot steps echoed behind her. She turned desperately toward them. She knew that it was impossible for it to be Sora, but whenever someone snuck up on her, she made herself believe it was Sora. A small figure formed in front of her. The shadow was carrying a long object.

"Sora? I-is that you?" Kairi's eyes widened.

"Sorry to dissapoint you, but it's only me, Tidus. I was going to hide in her. So you do it too?"

Kairi whiped tears from her eyes. "I only do it when I can no longer hold it in."

Tidus sat down cross legged next to her. "I know, I miss Riku and Sora as well. Listen, Kairi, me and Wakka are planning on leaving this island. Much like you, Sora, and Riku did. If you'd like, you could come with us."

Kairi shot a quick glance at Tidus. She knew it was impossible, since Sora sealed the doors to all the worlds.

"We could look for Sora and Riku together!"

Wild barking woke Sora. He peered out one eye to make sure he wasn't dreaming. "Huh?" He stuck his head out the windows. He was astonished when the yellow dog, Pluto, stood outside in the second district. He was barking like crazy and shoving the letter toward Sora. Sora quickly hopped out the window. Pluto began to run away again.

"Hey come back here! You already got away from me and Goofy!"

Pluto disobeyed, he kepy running. He ran until they were near the waterway. The dog stomped running and turned towards Sora. The letter was in his mouth, he gave it to Sora. Sora's eyes opened up widely. The letter he was desperatle searching for was now in his hand.

"Thanks, you're the best!" Sora began to pet Pluto. "I better go show this to Goofy and Donald. Wanna come?" The dog stood stiff, as if he hand no life. Pluto slowly shattered into small stars and flew up into the air. The wind carried the stars away. The letter in Sora's hand also disappeared. "Huh?"

Kairi came into Sora's focus. He back turned towards him. He stepped closer. "K-ka-Kairi? Is th-that really you?"

"Hi Sora, I've been waiting for you. What took you so long?" Her back still turned against him.

"Kairi! How'd you get here? We've been waiting for this day for over a year now. Kairi! We're finally reunited!" Sora rushed towards her with his hand out. "Is Riku with you?" He reached her and touched her shoulder. Kairi turned around, only to reveal she was faceless. Sora's heart sunk. He jumped back and fell to the ground, he rapidly scattered away from her. "Who are you?"

A voice which seemed so close to his ear was heard, "Slowly, slowly will your heart vanish. Pretty soon, you won't know a thing. Your heart, body, and soul will all disappear into darkness. When your heart is nothing but the darkness within the heart, it will be consumed by darkness. You will be darkness itself!"

Sora was at a dead end. The faceless Kairi continued to walk closer to him. "Do you not remember me? It's me Kairi!"

Sora got to his feet and pulled out the Kingdom Key. "You're not Kairi! And if you don't stay away, I'll do something bad!"

"Your dark side has spoken. Would you truly hurt your loved one if your heart was pure light?" The voice returned.

Sora scowled, "That's not Kairi! And who ever you are, I don't believe you. So just leave me alone."

"When your heart is darkness, and you become a heartless. That girl you love so much will no longer exist within you. Your heart is falling apart, your soul soon will too. You will be nothing but an empty shell. Your heart will be a heartless, and your soul will be nothing but an incomplete being."

"How do you know this? Tell me who you are?"

"You will know everything soon. When you have split into 3 parts, the answer will be clear amongst the hearts."

The faceless Kairi vanished into stars, much like Pluto. Around the corner came Donald and Goofy, well equipped.

"Sora!" Donald called. "What are you doing out here?"

Sora shook his head to rid of what happened. "Nothing, I was just sleep walking I guess."

Goofy rubbed the top of his head. "Well, we better head back."

Sor kept his eyes pasted on the spot where Kairi once appeared. "Yeah, we better."

All three walked to Cid's place.

It'll all be clear soon Sora, very soon.

Atop a roof top the silhoutte of a man is seen. He is looking up at the darkned sky. His long silvery hair waving in the wind.
