Chapter 09: Meet Sakura

In Tomoeda…

At night in this quiet town, there were two villains were walking in the streets, stirring up a conversation. They were 'Reiha' and the 'Unknown'. Reiha talks to the Unknown, "So, have you found the keyhole?"

"The Heartless are searching for it now," said the Unknown. He looked at Reiha, "What about the princess in this world?"

"According to what Queen Beryl said, we only have seven princesses. There are no princesses in this world."

"Then this will be easier than I thought." The Unknown started casting a spell and all the shadow type and soldier type Heartless to rise up from the ground. "Heartless, you know what to do..." The Heartless slithered throughout the city and did their duties.

"Those keyblade masters will be here any minute," uttered Reiha.

"Yes, we must move quickly…"

The Unknown and Reiha disappeared into thin air, leaving the Heartless under control of the city. And thus, the Heartless search for the keyhole has begun…

Nearby Tomoeda Park…

Out of nowhere, Sora, Donald, and Goofy flied out of the portal, somewhere out in the open skies. The three lay on top of each other, with Donald on bottom, heavy breathing from their weights. "Get off of me!" Donald yelled at them.

Sora apologized, getting off of him, "Oops, sorry Donald." So did Goofy. Sora looks around a little and saw the site to the new world. It seemed familiar somehow, being in the night and stuff like that. "Wow, are we back at Traverse Town?"

"Nope, I think we are in another world!" Donald replied obviously.

Sora rubbed his head in disbelief. "Well, I guess we just find the keyhole to this world, then? Besides, this place looks more normalized than the Feudal Era. So, there's no way a monster or demon can be here."

At that moment, a monster flew passed Sora. Donald and Goofy have seen it as well.

"…Gees, thanks Sora…," Donald said with sarcasm.

Some people were coming their way. It was figured out to be two girls and a flying mouse.

"Come on, Madison and Kero," said the brown-haired girl, holding a wand in her hand. She wears the rarest clothes, designed by her choreographer/camerawoman/best friend, Madison.

"Wait, Sakura," said Madison, running with a camera in her hand.

"We gotta capture that card before it does any damage," said the talking, flying mouse named Kero. The three passed the boys by a long shot, without even seeing them. Sora, Donald, and Goofy were strangely confused of what just happened. But still, they heard Kero say that 'the card will cause any damage if they don't capture it immediately.' Sora instantly snapped, "We gotta help!"

Goofy replied, "Say, won't that be muddling-"

"Meddling-" Donald corrected him.

"Yeah, meddling?" Goofy asked a very good question, but Sora is very persistent.

"You guys, we been in many worlds and we save them all," he said, "Why is this world any different?"

"Well, he's got a point there."

"Aw come on; let's help those guys capture that flying turkey!" Donald shouted as he pulled out his wand. He starts to look at Sora and Goofy to see if they are ready to fight and go. The two got out their weapons and searched for the three on their quest to capture the card.

Downtown

Sakura used her 'dash card' to catch the flying bird. As she grabs its wings, the bird starts to spin around and around, and knocks Sakura off to the ground.

"You twit, don't ever use the dash card, unless you're fighting the jump card or the fight card," Kero reply to Sakura, "What kind of 'Mistress of the Clow Cards' are you?"

Sora, Donald, and Goofy were just in time to help out. Sora used his 'Stopraga' attack on the flying bird. The bird just stopped in its place. Sora yelled out, "Sakura, hurry!"

Sakura nodded and got up from her fall. She used her sealing wand and said her summoning spell, "Return, Fly Card!" The large bird, known as the 'Fly Card', went back in its own card.

"Cool," Sora commented. "You were great, Sakura."

"Thanks, you are too," Sakura replied, picking up the fly card from the ground. "So what's your name?"

"It's Sora."

"Hi, Sora. I have to tell you, you have some nice moves."

"Same with you."

Sakura came up to Sora and started to look at his friends and his keyblade. She also ongoing wondered how he saw the Clow Card. They all seem so bizarre to her. Then, she starts commenting first on his keyblade, "So, what that you're holding?"

"A keyblade," Sora replied, "Yours must be a keyblade too."

"Not really, it's just my sealing wand," she said, holding it up, "It helps me lock the monsters inside their own cards."

Sakura pulled out her the Fly Card in front of Sora. Sora snatch the pink and gold clow card out of Sakura's hand and starts to look at it. "Aren't they supposed to be tarot cards or something?"

"You must be crazy," Sora said as she snatches back the card he stole from her hand.

"Yes, I must be crazy out my mind," he said with sarcasm. Sora put his hands behind his head and starts wondering off.

Sakura asked him some things, "So, where are you guys from?"

Sora stopped and turns to Sakura. He begins to say things to keep his, Donald's, and Goofy's profile on the down low. "We are from a town very far away."

"Like another world?"

Sora gasped, "How did you-"

"Where we from, Donald and Goofy are just cartoon characters," Sakura winked at Sora. Sora looks at Donald and Goofy, and the two started to whistle the song to 'Homeward Bound'.

"Cartoon characters?"

"Sakura, why don't you introduce me to your new boyfriend?" Madison called.

"He is not my boyfriend, Madison!" Sakura snapped at Madison. Sakura was extremely blushing and extremely angry. No matter what, Madison will just keep poking fun her until she truly confesses:

"Ohh, I'm telling Julian."

"Madison, you wouldn't!"

"Madison, nice to meet you," Sora replied as he holds his hand in front of her. Madison looks at Sora's sensitive smile and she starts to smile back. She held Sora's hand and they both shake hands.

"Aww, he's so nice…" Madison replied, she talking through Sakura ears sacredly, "…and cute too…"

"Madison!" Sakura hardened her voice.

As it was getting pretty worse for Sakura, Madison holds up her digital camera in front of Sora. She says, "Smile big for the camera, Sora!"

Sora gave her a cheezy grin as usual. He holds out the 'peace sign' with both of his hands.

Meanwhile, Donald looks at Kero and asked as he points, "Who's the stuff toy?"

"Why are people calling that?" Kero yelled furiously for a little guy, "FYI, I am not a toy! I am Keroberos, guardian of the Clow cards!"

"Guardian? You got to be kidding me?" Donald laughed at Kero's serious joke.

"Listen, don't make me evolve into my true form, and burn you and turn you to a roast duck," Kero was dead serious as he snapped at Donald the Duck.

"Oh, brother," Donald Duck rolled his eyes in belief, "Can you believe this guy?"

Unfortunately, Kero turned into his true form, Keroberos, and flames Donald to death.

"Gwarsh," said Goofy, covering his mouth, "At least, I'm not the one who's flamboyant."

Sakura and Sora had a conversation going on. It was about the serious events that happened just recently when Sora and his friends first came to this world.

"How did the Fly Card escape, Sakura?" Sora asked curiously.

"I don't know, I remember one time that it just flew out of its card."

Kero, who turn back from his previous form, closed his eyes and said the truth about it, "Sakura is so ditsy that she can let all the clow cards go in one day." Sakura looks at Kero with a snarl on her face. "Whoa, looks can kill!"

"Sakura, do you know the keyhole to your world?"

"No, I don't," she nodded disagreeably as Sora asked.

"Keyhole? I think I heard that somewhere before," Kero remembered.

"Where?" Sora surprisingly smiled and asked Kero.

"You know, it brings me back to a thousand years ago…"

Sora frowned, "So you don't know where the keyhole is?"

"Whoa, pardon my asking, Spikehead."

Sora was curious and tired. He sighed, "Here we go again on another quest to finding the keyhole. I hope the Heartless hasn't gotten to it before we did."

"What's a Heartless?" Madison recalled.

Goofy told her by acting out the Heartless's identity and causes from them, "They are creatures with bright, buggy-eyes that come out and take people's hearts."

"That's horrible."

"It is. That's why we need your help to find the keyhole before they do."

"What happened if the Heartless guys get to it before we do?" Sakura asked.

A paused came between their sentences.

Sora starts to talk, "The world will vanished."

"WHAT!" Sakura, Kero, and Madison screamed out.

"Are you serious?" Sakura asked Sora.

"Do we have the intensions to make this up?"

"You are serious…"

The three bow their heads and they begin to worry…a lot.

"Don't worry, as long as the Heartless doesn't come, you're world is safe," Sora cheered them up.

Goofy came up to Sora and he puts his hands on his shoulders. "Yep, leave it to the Sora, the keyblade master," he replied.

"And leave it to Sakura, the Mistress of the Clow cards," Kero spoke his words as he flew right beside Sakura.

"I don't know about this, but we might make a pretty, awesome team…" Sora replied, "Ready, Sakura?"

"Yeah, but first…..Snack first and then fight later."

"How can you think of eating at a time like this-" Suddenly, Sora stomach growl boisterously. Sakura looked at Sora with a strenuous look on her face. Sora came up with a fast reply, "Okay, let's eat." Sora, Donald, and Goofy went with Sakura towards home to get their grub on. As they venture on, a Shadow Heartless came of his ground saw them heading on. The Heartless didn't hesitate. It starts to follow them unexpectedly.


Footnotes:

1. In Jiminy Cricket's Journal, 'Reiha' is from anime, Vampire Princess Miyu. She starts out as Miyu's friend, but then she turned out to be pure evil and captures Miyu for Queen Beryl's purpose: gathering all the seven princess of hearts. That's evident that Miyu is one of the princesses of the purest hearts.

2. Unknown are those mysterious hooded-wearing people from Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories.

3. The 'Fly Card' was Sakura's second card she captured and first card she used with one of her Elemental Cards, 'Windy Card'.

4. 'Stopraga' is the highest level of magic for 'stop'. I think you get 'stopraga' by defeating Phantom at Neverland's Clock Tower in Kingdom Hearts.

5. Kero turns into a large dog with white wings called, Keroberos.

6. This story starts right after when Sakura achieved her title as 'Mistress of the Clow Cards.'
