In a dark corridor of a castle set in the middle of somewher yet to be known were two grown men. Each was tall and stood in the shadows. Also, the two were frowning at the whimpering youthful form before their feet.
One of the men had long silver hair, and sea-green eyes. He was pale, with a very set face. Almost perfect in every way. He was wearing black pants that were held up by something one may reconize as a championship belt. Two black belt straps went across the exposed chest. He wore a black shiny trench, that had white-silver armour on one shoulder. He was quite tall, which gave him an even more imtimidating effect.
The other, was a little more menacing, but having the same effect on the girl nevertheless. There were imaginary cuts on her from the icy eyes glaring down on her. His silky, jet black lock hung straight against his face. Except for three strands that poked out (High, mid-way, low) on either side of his face, his hair was flat against his head and into the thin braid that hung to his mid back. He wore the same adornment as other, save the long scarlet cape instead of black trench.
"P-Punishment, s-sirs?" Asked the girl, shuddering in the cold corridor.
"Yes. You were supposed to make sure he was either killed or set on the wrong track. That did not include putting Strife on his team!" barked the male, the other cleared his throat, and the black haired man softened his tone, "However, his Lordship thinks that we shall spare you. For you could continue being useful."
The other man nodded, The girl could be useful, and he needed to make sure Strife lived. He murmured something so soft that niether could've heard had they tried, turned and left.
The black haired man looked to Kyi, "What are you going to do now, Ninja?" His tone was more harsh than before.
"I'll figure something out. There are more Heartless on the New World than there are in the others. They are of equal or more power than that of Maleficent's strongest army." She replied in a soft tone, her master wouldn't hurt her unless his ownership was threaten, he enjoyed watching her work too much, "I suppose I could," She frowned slightly as shse cleared her throat, "I could make another army, or at least set some particularly powerful Heartless in certain areas.. Mislay some clues." She suggested raising the eyebrows. "I'm sure, that it'll that brat off.. Strife however.. I may distract him with something else. I'll get researching on his profile," She smirked, "There's bound to be something that will lure him into risk.. Don't you think, Draconis?" She hissed on the 's' in his name, and looked at him with her head tilted.
His tone softened and a mischievious smirk crossed his face, "I like you think, Kyi. Get going, we don't want the boy too far ahead." He smirked more as she gave a bow on his way out.

Kyi dismissed herself the the Library His Lordship Kept, it was inside an old labratory. She fingered through books, "Hmn, Cloud Strife.." A tale of his journies? She shrugged. She would figure out something, just like she promised.. But what?

Sora and friends found their way out of the village to forest, the Heartless were plentiful. Although they fought hard, the heartless seemed infinate, until the boys found a save portal to teleporte to a ship. They needed to go to Hollow Bastion to talk to the others. They would know what to do.
