Sora's POV

We used a door in the First District to get to the Third District no problem. We walked into Cid's house to find no one was home.

"Let's go to the Cavern, I'll bet they're all there," Kitana explained.

"The Cavern?" Donald, Goofy, and I all asked at the same time.

"I'll show you," Kitana said, running off. She led us to the alleyway.

"Well, go on," she said as she pushed us forward.

The rest of us kept walking when all of a sudden Kitana rammed into Goofy, who rammed into me, who rammed into Donald, who rammed into some boxes and broke them revealing a very wet cavern. Leon, Yuffie, and Aeirth were there, but no Cid.

"Do you know where Cid is?" I asked.

"Check behind his shop," Leon said. "By the way, Aerith wanted to talk to you."

"Sora, Kitana, you both have Keyblades. Your job as wielders is to seal the Keyholes in each world to keep the Heartless from getting into the world's core. If the Heartless do get in, they mess with the world's core. Eventually, the world will disappear," Aerith explained to everyone.

"We'll do it," Kitana offered, elbowing me again when he wanted to say something in objection. "It's the only way you're going to find your friends"

I nodded.

"Good luck. Here take this, it holds some mysterious power," Leon gave us a green rock. The rock had two lion eyes trapped in, peering at you no matter which way you turned it.

"Do you know how to use it?" Kitana asked.

"…" was Leon's only reply.

"Let's go find Cid!" I cheered as we all made our way to behind Cid's shop.

Cid's POV

"Heya, I work in the gummi business now," I explained.

"Really? Cause boy could we use your help," Kitana said right before explaining their situation.

"So you need me to fix a ship that exploded?" I asked as if they were crazy.

"Yep," Goofy replied.

"Then let me get to work," I commanded. "Why don't you go visit Merlin about that rock?"

Sora's POV

Kitana flew us across Merlin's lake and led us in. She presented Merlin with the gem.

"This is a summon gem, go to the Fairy Godmother about that," Merlin said.

"Oh, the poor thing. Its soul is trapped in this gem from when its world was destroyed," the Fairy Godmother said.

"That's too bad…" Donald said.

"Well watch this. Bibbity bobbity boo!" she enchanted.

"Let's go to the house now," Kitana said.

"Um, ok," I replied.

Kitana's POV

Sora's just having a good old time in a lovely house chatting with his most wonderful best friends while I'm standing out here having in awful time in the Third District with absolutely nobody. I wish my friends were here, I wish Kabal were here, I wish I was back home in-

"Sora looks like he's having fun…" I recognized the voice of the boy who saved me earlier.

"Yeah…" I replied.

"Kitana, you're one of them aren't you?" he asked.

My heart stopped dead. There was no freaking way he could no about it and be on my side of the battle.

"An Eclipsed, as some call them right? Don't worry about it, ok, I won't tell anyone," he quickly added that last sentence after he saw how scared I was.

"It's blinding, isn't it? It's really tough." He said.

"How would you know what it's like?" I asked.

"I had to pay the price for coming to Traverse Town by myself. Lucky for me, there was her…" he mumbled the last part.

"Kairi… right? You're stars…" I replied, mumbling that last little bet.

"What was that?"

"Nothi- HIDE!" I said as I flew up on top of the building.

Maleficent rose out of the ground and stood next to Riku. I wanted to go down and get him so bad, but if we both got caught, there would be no hope…

Oooh, for Kairi clone and lemonyshepard. I think you're the only people who like my story. And if other people like my story, you have an extremely ineffective way of showing it. So R&R, and all that jazz.
