Welcome to my World
Chapter 3 Let's Meet

"Yes, but how...how do you know my name?" Sora puzzled at Rachel.

"This can't be! No this is a dream! A nightmare!" Rachel kept hitting herself in the head.

"I can assure you I'm 100% real." Sora helped Rachel up, "I never caught your name?"

"Rachel." Rachel relaxed if this was a dream then it wouldn't hurt to play along.

"I suppose I must choose." Sora walked over to the shield. "This."

"Now what power will you give up?" A mysterious Voice in the air asked.

Sora jumped down off of the rock that held the shield and sacrificed the Sword. The rocks began to shake and rumble. Rachel and Sora stood side by side and the glass broke letting them fall and be guided to yet another platform. A heartless appeared in front of Rachel and Sora, Sora's shield appeared in Sora's and Rachel's hand. The heartless jumped at them... Sora took it down.

~ You all know what happens during that thing so Let us go over to Julie and Dana. ~

Julie opened her eyes to see a crystal clear sky above them. She sat up in shock. She looked around to see a bridge, shack, waterfall, and a whole lot of trees. 'This can't be' She thought. "DANA! Wake up!" Julie shook Dana.

* Smack * Dana gave Julie a good one on the nose. She sat up, "Oh, Julie I'm sorry if I had realized..." Julie signaled Dana to stop.

"Look round." Julie told Dana and waited for a reply.

"Jewels, please tell me this is a bad dream." Dana looked in realizing.

"I doubt it, the storm."

"So we are really in Kingdom hearts?" At first it was fear, but now more interest.

"Hello!" Kairi smiled behind them.

"AHHH!" Julie and Dana both jumped a little over 10 feet in the air.

" * Giggles * I didn't mean to frighten you." She smiled.

"Its ok, I guess." Julie stared at the sand.

"Do you know how we got here?" Dana stood up.

"Well, there was a really bad storm and here you are. Come on, you need to meet Riku and Sora." Kairi lead the way towards the shack when they spotted Sora and Rachel asleep.

"Rach!" Julie and Dana took off towards them.

~ To Rachel and Sora ~

"UH oh!" Sora's shield and Rachel's disappeared. A huge Shadow glared at them and two portal of darkness began to form, trapping them.

"Don't be afraid..." The voice returned "...and remember you have the mightiest weapon of..." Now growing in strength "...Your heart." It fades out as Sora and Rachel disappeared into the darkness.

"Wake up! Get up you lazy bums." Kairi looked from Rachel to Sora.

"Ahhh!" Sora sat up quickly followed by Rachel.

"I knew I found you (Sora) down here snoozing on the beach." Kairi's eyes glittered in the sun.

"No there was this huge black thing and it swallowed me up... ouch!" Kairi had hit Sora in the head.

"Are you still dreaming?" She asked, "We have new comers." Kairi motioned to Julie, Dana , and Rachel. Who were now living a virtual nightmare.

"You! You were in my dream, your names Rachel." Sora looked at Rachel.

"I..." Rachel began, but was caught of by Kairi.

"Sora, you're going to scare them off." She whispered to him.

"Scare them to where?" Riku came walking in with a log under his arm and tossed it on Sora, "So I guess I'm the only one working on the raft." He sat down next to Sora.

The three sat in silence, "Can we have a moment?" Dana politely, but quickly scooted Rachel and Julie to the side.

"There is no way we could be sharing the same dream." Dana assumed.

"So this is real. Can we get hurt?" Rachel asked as she agreed.

"Yes, of course!" Julie yelled at Rachel.

"And no one is there to press the restart button, so we can't die!" Dana put her hand in, "We stick together."

"Through all thick and thin." Rachel put her hand in.

"And darkness and light." Julie put her hand in.

They turned to Kairi, Sora, and Riku. They motioned for them to lead the way. Kairi showed them to a room in a tree house, "Sorry we can't give you all real rooms." She smiled.

"It is ok." Rachel assured taking the blankets from Kairi and passing then to every one.

"Really." Dana smiled.

"OK, well I have to be going, see you all tomorrow." Kairi left the room.

The three tried to sleep, but sleep wouldn't come. Who could sleep when you're in a game! Or are they?

* Crack * a bolt of lighting made all three jump. "Oh no." Dana said.

"The storm in the game. It is what separated Riku, Sora, and Kairi." Rachel gasped.

"We can't be!" Julie began t panic.

"And we won't, but we need to help Sora, Kairi, and Riku. Maybe we can stop Kairi from losing her heart and Riku becoming evil." Dana jumped up followed by Rachel and Julie and out the door.

Into the raging storm.
