Asmall test of the future.

" Were looking for Nobody's?" Sora asked, as DiZ nodded.

"Yes and we need to retrieve them before the organization can." Diz stated, as he stood up from his chair. " Follow me." DiZ then headed towards the exit, Sora following suit. It had been interesting to hear that the first thing that Sora was to do was look for nobody's. He always thought that he would rather be building some kind of superweapon or make some kind of army, but no, he was looking for Nobody's.

Sora didn't know were this recent hatred came from. Just an hour or two ago he saw them as another being that he had to defeat in order to save the world, but now, he couldn't stand to hear the word Nobody's. he didn't have a reason for hating every single thing about them, he just...did. Then it hit him.

" Instincts..." Sora thought, as he finally realized that it was his growing instincts. While they were walking up the stair's, Sora reached down into his pocket and pull out the bag of AMH's and took out one of them. Sora stared at the heart for a moment, wondering how the hell he was going to use it. He thought for a few seconds until he felt something.Pain...Pain was running through his body, as he dropped to his knees and let out a scream. His eyes stared to glow, as his vein pulsed fast then usual. His muscle's twitched, while his body started to hunch down until he was on all for. Well three since he still had the heart in his hand...

Sora quickly looked over at the heart and without even thinking about it, crushed it, as little particles could be seen floating from the hand. His body started to revert back to normal, as black smoke was visually came off of his body. A few seconds later he was on one knee and his fist to the floor, while he tried to regain his strength. Of course, DiZ had been watching the entire time.

" Astonishing..." Was all DiZ could think, as he walked over to Sora, trying to see if the boy was truly back in control. Sora looked up at Diz and just gave him a small nod, before standing up. Diz turned around and went through the door that they were right in front of. Sora hesitated for a moment, before heading through the door as well...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There was a large room on the opposite side of the door, with of nothing but shelves full of books. There was also a little table in the center of the room, it had a few candles on it, nothing special. Diz walked over to the table, while Sora just stood there. When Diz reached the table, he blew out the candles. A second later, the entire floor shook, as Diz walked back over to Sora. Suddenly, the floor disappeared, as a room was visible to both of them. Diz headed over to the stairway that had just appeared, as Sora just jumped over the edge and next to the door in the new room. He had made bigger jumps in the past, so it was no big thing.

They entered through the door and down the long metallic hallways, both of them keeping to their thoughts. When they finally reached the room, Sora was a little disappointed at what he saw. It was a small metallic room, similar to the hallway. There were a few monitors on the walls, A large one on the wall next to the door. A large group of small monitors were located right across from it in one of the corners of the room. Next to the monitors were several controls, along with a comfortable looking red chair.

Diz headed towards the chair and sat down, spinning in the chair to face the monitors. He typed a set of commands on the controls, as the monitors showed different things at once. Sora walked up to were Diz was sitting, wondering what he was doing. After what felt like an eternity to Sora, Diz stopped typing and looked in his direction.

" Now Sora, it is time for you to start searching for the first of the Nobody's." Diz stated, while Sora snapped out of his thoughts and turned all his attention towards him. Diz began to type a few more commands onto the keyboard, as Sora heard a sound behind him. He looked towards the large monitor to see a girl around the age of 14 on the screen. She had blond hair and blue eyes, wore a pure white dress that showed her body quite nicely. Diz turned around in his chair to also look at the picture.

" Her name is Namine, she is the first Nobody that you'll be searching for." Diz stated, as Sora looked over at him.

" What's so special about her, except for the whole Nobody thing, she looks like a regular person."

stated Sora, as Diz turned around in his chair and typed a few more things on his controls.

" She has the ability to control memories." Diz said, as Sora looked at him confusedly. Diz typed a few more things, before turning around in his chair and handing a disk to Sora. "This is an auto-pilot program for you Gummi ship. It will take you directly to Namine's location." Diz stated, as Sora looked at the disk, before looking back at Diz.

" So basically you just want me to go and bring her here for protection, right?" Sora asked ,as Diz nodded slightly.

" That and she could be of use to us. Keep your guard up at all times while your there, for as soon as you arrive, she will have influence over you." stated Diz, as Sora just walked towards the door, while waving of what he said.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Surprising, it was a nice short flight for Sora, which was a good change of things. The location of Namine was a large castle, with various green spike's sticking in all directions from it. The only way to the castle, however, was a small narrow path that force him to land his ship near the beginning of road. So Sora was force to walk all the way to the castle's front gates, which also had green spikes sticking out of it.

Sora passed the gates and went straight towards the doors, while putting up his hoddie ( which concealed his face completely). He pushed the doors open as soon as he reached them. The castle's outside looked like crap to Sora, but the inside was beautiful. Everything in the castle was pure white and shine a bit, making him wonder why the castle looked completely different from the outside as it did on the inside. He snapped out of his thoughts, remembering what he needed to do.

At the very end of the room that Sora was in, he could see a stair case leading upwards. Sora headed towards the stairs and proceeded up them. Sora became irritated at the number of stairways he had to walk up, all the rooms he had to walk through. He sighed in relief when he finally managed to reach the last floor. It was an extremely large room with an extremely long hallway, and at the very end was a set of large doors. Sora mumbled something, before heading down the long hallway. It took him a few minutes or so to reach the door's, which he easily opened and stepped inside.

It was a large pure white room, just like the others. Only in this one, there was only a simple chair and desk in the center of it. There Namine sat, busy drawing on a little sketch pad. Sora slowly approached her, as Namine looked up from her drawing.

" Hello Sora." She said, startling him a bit, before he regained his composure. Then he thought about the memories thing and figured that was how she knew him...

" I can only control the memories of those that have hearts Sora..." Namine said, as she closed he sketch pad, while Sora just stood there for a moment. There was a silence between the two, as Sora thought about what she had said..

" You know who I am, don't you?" Sora asked, as Namine nodded.

" Yes and I've been waiting for you to come for quite some time." Namine stated. A second later, someone barged through the doors, while Sora turned to face them. It shocked Sora to see an exact replica of Ansem, who he thought had died after their fight. The only difference from the last time is that he was wearing one of the Organization 13's robes.

Ansem himself was panting, he had his hands on his knees and was trying to catch his breath.

" I couldn't find the intruder Namine, but I know he's still around here somewhere. Let's be on are gua-" The Ansem replica stopped as soon as he laid his eye's on Sora. He stood up quickly and prepared to fight, Sora followed suit. At the same time the summoned their weapons, only for both of their eye's to widen at the others weapon.

The Ansem replica had in his hands the soul eater, as Sora had the Oathkeeper and Oblivion out. The two froze in place, as they just stared at one another's weapons. Namine coughed to get their attention.

" That won't necessary Riku."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was an interesting ride back to Twilight Town, Riku and Sora asking each other questions at what had happen to each other during the six months that they were apart. Namine was quietly listening in on there conversation while sketching on her pad. Apparently, Riku had gotten separated from the King after they had left kingdom hearts and wound up at that castle. He was having trouble with the darkness that was inside him and as he moved through the castle, his appearance gradually started to resemble that of Ansem's. Until finally he looked exactly like him.

Riku had met Namine in the castle. She was helping him suppress his darkness, but could only do so much. They had stayed their in the castle for the rest of the time until Sora arrived. Namine had, for some reason, know that he would show up and waited there for him.

Sora explained to Riku everything that had happened to him, along with showing him the bag of AMH's and his Cp. Riku made a comment about wanting to get a Cp of his own, but Sora ignored it and focused on just destroying the heartless ships. They started to appear as soon as Sora left the castle, but he shrugged it off as a coincidence and continued towards TT.

When they arrived in the world, Riku took a quick interest in it, the ocean especially. For Riku, it had been a long time since he had last seen the ocean and seeing again was somewhat of a tearful moment. One of which was stopped abruptly when Sora made a 180 turn and replied with a "Whoops heh... wrong way". Apparently the auto-pilot for this world only worked the first time Sora was here.

They arrived at the mansion and dock in the GSH. Namine and Riku both took in the look of the place, as Sora guided them down into the metallic room. There waiting for them was Diz, who greeted them with his usual creepy smile.

" Hello Namine." Diz said, as Namine just smiled at him.

" Hello Diz, how have you been?" Namine asked, as Diz just stood out of his chair and walked over to her.

" I've been fine, though my old age is starting to catch up." Diz walked slowly towards Namine, only for Riku to stand in his path. " And you are ?"

" Riku." he stated, as Namine just put a hand on his shoulder. Riku looked back at her, while she just nodded, Before walking a head of him and moving towards Ansem.

" What do you want me to do?" Namine asked, as Ansem just pointed towards one of the walls. Sora was confused by this until it opened up to revel a hidden passage. Namine hesitated for a moment, before walking down the passage, Diz following behind. Sora started to follow them into the passage when suddenly Diz turned around to face him.

" I am sorry Sora, but only Namine and I can go on from this point." Diz said, as Sora was about to say something, but decided to keep it to himself. Namine and Diz once again headed down the passage.

Riku sighed, as he walked towards the wall near the monitor and leaned his back against it. Sora looked over at Riku with a unsure expression. " So...what do we do now?" He asked, As riku looked over at him.

"We wait." Riku said, as Sora stood there for a moment, before heading towards the rooms exit. Riku raised one of his eyebrows. " Leaving? " he asked, as Sora looked over his shoulder.

" Just going for a walk, I've never really been good at waiting." Sora stated, as he walked out the door. All he knew at this point or all he cared about at this point was that he had some free time until Diz found told him were the other Nobody was, until then he didn't really know what he was going to do...but at least he thought positive.

That was until he took his first step outside the mansion and in a large pile of dog crap...
