Kingdom Hearts: Return of the Heartless
Chap. 6 To the Rescue!
Meanwhile, Goofy, Donald, Kairi, and Riku had realized what world Sora was in. They had rode on the gummi and landed only yards away from Sora and the heartless guard. The screen now showed him being ambushed, then it was blank.
"Oh, great! Now we can't see what's happening!" exclaimed Riku.
"We can at least try to find him," Donald thought.
"Let's start looking over there!" Kairi pointed to a path near the castle.
They walked until they could see Sora and the creatures in the distance.
"There they are!" shouted Kairi, "C'mon, let's catch up!"
Everyone ran toward them. Maleficant's castle was very close.
"Hurry!" Riku encouraged.
A creature was about to open the castle drawbridge, when it was struck by Donald's blizzard attack. Kairi electricuted some heartless with her whip, and the creatures yelped and screamed.
Goofy and Donald destroyed the guards with their magic and Riku attacked Maleficant's creatures that had dragged Sora the whole way. The rest of the beings fled in panic. Donald melted Sora's chains with his fire spell.
"Sora, are you okay? Speak to me!" Riku shook him.
"He can't..." a voice said. A black shadow stood before them. It was the heartless that had helped Sora in the arena, "...I gave him a knockout spray. He won't awaken for quite some time. As for you..." it disappeared, and the drawbridge was opening.
"Let's get out of here!" yelled Goofy.
"To the ship!" Donald told them.
They carried Sora and ran as fast as they could to the ship. Everyone got in, and the engine roared. They took off before any heartless could catch up.
"Where's somewhere safe?" wondered Kairi.
"Let's see," Donald looked at the map, 'We could go back to our kingdom. I'm sure the heartless haven't struck there yet."
"How long from here?" Riku asked.
"Maybe and hour or so," Goofy answered, "...I sure hope Sora will be all right."
Later...
When Sora awoke, everything was a blur, What is this place? I must be dreaming...
"Sora?..Are you okay?"
"Huh?"
"That must've been some strong stuff they gave you."
Sora could now see more clearly, "Kairi?...Am I glad to see you!"
"Me, too. Riku and I are both safe. Goofy and Donald are both here, too. Are you sure you're fine?"
"Yeah, I'll be okay."
"We're heading to the king's castle. I'm positive it's safe enough."
There was a pause.
Sora thought for a moment, "...It's been so long since you came to our island..., and you still haven't seen your hometown yet..."
"You're right...I've never thought about it."
"Maybe we could go visit it sometime soon."
"Maybe...You know, it's weird, how we've been to many worlds, but never where I used to live."
"Yeah, it is."
"Yeah.....Remember the day before...'you know what' happened?"
"Of course. Why?"
"Well, when we talked before then...and I said 'don't ever change'..."
"...Yeah?"
"Well, I...really meant it."
"Huh?"
Riku called to them, "Hey, guys! We're here!"
"We better get going, Sora..."
"But, what about..." Sora didn't finish. When he looked where they had landed, all he saw was pitch black.
"What...happened?" Kairi was awestruck.
"Maybe I was wrong," confessed Donald, "Looks like the heartless have come here..."
"Let's go check it out," Riku suggested, "Sora, here's your keyblade...just in case."
"I definitely think I'll need it."
