Empire of Heartless

Chapter 6

Rein and Felix

"Sora, help me please"

"Kairi where are you!"

"The castle... you have to come to the castle... we're all here Sora"

"Where is the castle?"

"The tree of mana leads to the world of Vasor and that's where the castle is"

"Okay Kairi I won't let you down"

Sora suddenly awoke from his unconscious state. He looked around the place he was in. It was a giant room filled with treasure chest.

"Where am I?"

A short boy ran into the room. "Oh I now where you are"

Sora jumped up from the ground and stared at the little boy.

"So where am I", Sora walked toward the boy.

"You are in the Gaedrin manor", the boy told him.

"The Gaedrin manor, what's that", Sora asked as he headed for the door of the room.

"It's my extremely ginormous house"

Sora walked out the door and saw that he was on the tenth floor of the house. He poked his head out of the balcony he was on and counted all the other floors.

"29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, wow that's a lot of floors"

"C'mon I'll show ya around"

"Um what's your name?"

"Oh I'm Sielo Gaedrin, son of Fedrine the Queen of all Vasor"

"Did you say Vasor", Sora asked.

"Yep I did", they headed down stairs.

"Sielo have you seen a castle in the sky around here lately", Sora asked as they reached the bottom of the stairs.

"Um... I'm not supposed to tell you but. . ." He was interrupted by a tall boy.

"Sielo stop", a loud shriek came from behind Sora.

Sora turned to see who it was, "Riku is that you. . ." Sora stopped when he noticed that it was not him.

A tall boy stood in front of him, he had dirty blond hair on his bangs and the rest was brown. His hair reached below his chin. He had on a long dark green scarf, a short sleeved dark blueshirt that was on top of a long sleeved dark green shirt, his pants were dark blue, and his shoes were blue at the top and dark green at the bottom.

"Who are you", Sora asked.

"I am Felix Gaedrin, son of. . ."

"I know, the son of Queen Fedrine", Sora interrupted.

Suddenly a girl of about the same height appeared beside the boy named Felix.

"Sielo I told you not to let him out of the room", the girl yelled at Sielo.

"I'm sorry Rein I forgot"

"Oh you forgot well this will teach you", she summoned a staff to her hands and prepared to strike, but before the staff could hit him Sora blocked it with the keyblade.

"Huh the keyblade... how did you... but I locked the keyblade away in a safe", she gasped.

Sora threw the girl back with all his might and pointed his keyblade at her.

"Listen if you want to hurt my friend Sielo than you gotta go through me"

"Oh you're gonna pay ha. . ." Felix stopped her as she got up and started to attack.

"NO! Rein we are to help the keyblade master, not destroy him", Felix calmed her down.

"So tell me Felix, is there really a castle in the sky here", Sora dismissed his keyblade.

"Yes there is. Why do you care though?"

"My friends heart's are all in that castle and I want to help them out", Sora explained.

"Then we will help you keyblade master"

"Please call me Sora. We are friends now"

"Okay as you wish key, I mean Sora. This is my sister Rein and you already know my younger brother Sielo"

"Sorry Rein. I didn't mean to throw ya back so hard"

"That's okay Sora, I mean don't let it happen again dude", Rein smiled.

"Let us gather supplies for the journey and then we may go", Felix told Sora.

-------------------TIME LAPSE-------------------------

"Sora... help... we're going to turn into... the heart. . ." Kairi's voice ran through Sora's mind as he tried to sleep.

"Kairi I won't let you change into a heartless. I will find you and destroy the darkness once and for all", Sora arose from his bead, put on his clothes, slipped on his shoes and left the room he was in.

"Can't sleep either can you", Rein asked.

"No. I can't stop worrying about Kai, I mean my friends"

Rein walked towards Sora. "It'll be okay Sora", she grabbed his arms and gave him a light kiss on the cheek.

"Why did you. . ."

"Shh... go back to bead now", she steered him in the direction of his room.

"Good night", he said as he walked into his room.

For some reason Sora was some how comforted by her kiss.

The castle hovered above a mountain on the other side of the manor.

"Project heartless D and G go forth and destroy the manor", Zephiel ordered.

He then called Julianna into his room. "So did you put Sora to sleep?"

"Yes, pretending to be that girl was a surefire plan my lord", she answered.

"Perfect, now the keyblade will surely be mine ha, ha, ha, ha", Zephiel laughed.

Two dark figures, one short and the other tall, leaped from the castle and down to the mountains.

When the two figures made it down the mountain they stood in front of the manor ready to destroy it. In the short ones hand was a staff and in the tall ones was a shield. A large dark flame shot out of the staff and hit the manor, a huge black blast shot out of the shield and hit the manor as well. The walls caught aflame and the door blown down.

"Sora wake up we're under attack", Sielo yelled to Sora.

Sora remained asleep.

"SORA!" Sielo started to shake Sora frantically but nothing happened.

"Sora wake up they need you", Nanniwuccu's voice yelled to Sora.

Sora jumped up from the bead. "Huh what's going on?"

"We're under attack"

"By whom"

"These two strange warriors", Felix came into the room, "We can't save the manor it's too late."

"C'mon let's go stop those people", Sielo came in andsaid.

They all ran down the stairs and out the door of the manor. When they made it outside Sora noticed that the two warriors were Donald and Goofy.

Authors note: The next chapter is "Friend's...right?", which is about Sora trying to figure out why they turned evil while fighting Donald and Goofy.
