Akurei-Shinzo: I'm back! Did you miss me? I hope you all are enjoying the fanfic so far! Okay, so the plot thickens now, but to find out more about what is going on in the worlds you have to keep on reading! I don't own Kingdom Hearts or any other anime/manga that appear in here, except for a few characters from some of my own series which I hope to get published! So please R&R!

Kingdom Hearts II: Shadow of Hearts

Chapter 5: Onboard the Outlaw Star (Part 1)

"I wonder what kind of ship Zeero was talking about…" thought Yami aloud.

"How many types of ships are there?" asked Riku. "And what would one be doing on land anyways? Wouldn't they all be in the ocean?"

"I think he means a spaceship."

"What's a spaceship?"

"Never mind…"

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"We've been searching for hours!" moaned Riku. It was true, the moon was about to set. Then the two saw a group of people, they appeared to be trying to enter a red …spaceship?!

"I think we've found the ship…" said Yami. The two boys ran over the group.

"Hey, what's wrong?" asked Riku.

"Gene is trapped in the ship! And there are some weird shadows things trapped inside too!" exclaimed a white haired girl with cat-like ears. Here green eyes showed a bit of fear within them.

"Why can't you all get in?" questioned Yami.

"We've tried, but something keeps preventing us from entering," said a short sandy haired boy.

"Can you help us?" asked a dark hair girl. For some reason, Riku got the feeling that she wasn't really a human.

"Sure, but how do we get in?" Riku asked.

"Use the Keyblade…" spoke a mysterious voice. After hearing that statement the silver Keyblade materialized in his hand and then, pointing it a part of the ship, Riku blasted a small doorway through the wall.

"Let's go!" shouted Riku jumping into the ship, Yami following close behind. Before the other three could enter the ship, wires formed a wall around the hole and healed the ship!

"Now what do we do?" asked Jim.

"I guess we just sit around," said Aisha.

"It's almost like someone was trying to keep us out…" said Melfina softly.

"That's because someone is," said a voice from behind. The three looked up to see a fox-demon sitting on top of the Outlaw Star. "This is a test to see whether the Keybearer's heart is strong enough for a certain type of power. I suggest you don't interfere…" With that, the demon vanished into a cloud of mist and fog.

Remember this advice, Keybearer. Sometimes to find the light, you must look within the deepest part of the darkness…

Akurei-Shinzo: Hope you liked the chapter! Sorry if it isn't so good. I'm really tired now! This is only part one, the reason I don't want to write the entire chapter now is because I'm tired from the activities at school! We went to a ranch and had a picnic and I saw my IPC teacher give two boys a wedgie!! So long! Please R&R and be one the lookout for the other parts of this chapter!
