Sitting in the throneroom of the Hallow Bastion, Sora was looking out a large, stained glass window. He was concerned about a dark cloud that was forming in the distance. There was something evil about it, he could tell. But he just couldn't put his finger on what it was. Just then, he heard the gentle cry of a newborn baby, and then of feet walking down a stone corridor. He turned his gaze from the window and followed the noise.
Sora walked down the stone hallway, stopped in the doorway of the nursery and smiled. He saw his wife, Kairi lifting up their young daughter out of her crib. He walked over toher, as she sat downin a rocking chair bythe baby's crib, slowly rocking and holding a small bundle in her arms. She looked up at him with sleepy eyes, and smiled at him.
"Hi, Sora" she whispered. She peered into the bundle, and a small cry came from it. Sora smiled. His daughter had been born only a few weeks ago, but he already knew she had a strong heart, just like her mother. And that she was the one who was going to inherit the Keyblade. He didn't want her to, but if she had to then so be it.
"Hey. How's Yume?" Sora asked quietly, so he wouldn't wake the baby.
"Hungry." Kairi said. "How many 2 o'clock feedings am I going to have to go through?"
Sora laughed quietly. "Too many to count, most likely." He said in between soft chuckles.
He looked around the large nursery, and he shook his head. "Isn't this too big for her?" he asked. Ever since he and Kairi had become the king and queen of the Hallow Bastion, he had always thought that the rooms were too big. Kairi laughed.
"Not this again." She said between laughter. She stood up, and put her hand on her husband's arm. "Sora, you knew that when you married me, you would have to live with rooms bigger than you were used to." She looked into her husband's eyes.
"Yes, and I've enjoyed every minute of it."
They shared a quick kiss just as a guard ran into the room, a panicked look on his face.
"Sire!" he shouted. "There have been reports of Ansem breaking into the castle!"
"What!" Sora shouted "I defeated him ten years ago!"
A loud explosion sounded from the throneroom.
"Sire, you must do something quickly!"
Sora held up his hand, as if he were going to grasp a sword. A light flashed, and a key-shape weapon appeared in his hand. Kairi gasped
"The Keyblade..." she said softly. "I hoped that I would never see that again."
A loud noise came from outside the wall, and the wall started to crumble. Kairi looked at it, clutching Yume (who cried in protest)to her chest.
"Kairi, get Yume out of here. NOW!" Sora yelled as the wall crashed down, and thousands of Heartless came pouring through the hole.
Kairi ran down the hall as fast as her legs would carry her. The Heartless were right behind her, she could hear the scuffling sounds that their feet made as they ran along the floor. She looked back, and for a few horrifying seconds, thought about giving up. But when she heard her beloved daughter, her beloved little girl, cry in fear,she knew that she couldn't. She continued to the Gummy Ship hanger, sealed the door,and ran to the nearest ship she could find. Opening thetop, shefelt her eyes fill with tears. She gently placed Yume inside, along with a handwritten letter fromSora toKing Mickey, only to be used if things went horribly wrong .Kairi thought she would never have to use it. Yume cried and Kairi gently stroaked her head, singing softly.
The bluebird sings his song
A song of happy dreams
Flying to little baby Yume,
To make her so happy.
Sleep little Yume,
And remeber this final song
So I can be with you
All your wonderful life long.
Kairi placed her finger in Yume's hand, and then gently slid it out. She kissed her gently on the forehead and closed the ship. The Heartless were banging on the door now, and it was almost down. She pressed the button and the ship started. Kairi felt the tears in her eyes run down her cheeks as she watched the ship fly away. She turned as the Heartless broke down the door, and she knew it was the end. The Heartless came through the door, and swallowed Kairi into the darkness.

At the small island, it was night and all was quiet. A young woman sat on the beach, holding her head in her hands and crying softly. Her three-week old son had just died of an unknown illness and it was tearing her apart. She looked up and saw a shooting star in the sky. She folded her hands and made a wish.
Please, let me raise a child as wonderful as Kurama...please...
As soon as her wish ended, she heard the small cry of a baby. It was close by, near her on the beach somewhere! She stood up, looking around for the source of the noise. Wandering down the beach, she finally found the source. A little baby, wrapped up in a blanket, was lying on the beach, near to the water's edge. She gasped and ran over to it, picking it up just before a wave splashed the blanket. The baby had chesnut-brown hair and a beautiful face. She could tel right away that the baby was a little girl.
"I'll call you Mia...my little Mia..."
The baby opened her green eyes and looked at her. The woman felt her heart warm and she knew that she had to raise this baby. And she would raise and protect her until her last breath.
