Chapter 1: Prelude
Sora landed on the final platform of Hollow Bastion's lifts. "Whew," Sora said, wiping the sweat from his forehead, "Almost missed that one." Sora continued down the main path to Hollow Bastion's front door, quickly dispatching the Heartless guarding the path. The doors opened ominously at his approach. "I don't like the looks of this." Sora whispered to himself. Whatever was inside was waiting for him. And it was prepared.
Sora made his way inside the castle, keyblade drawn and at the ready. Sora encountered several more Heartless upon entering the main foyer on the bottom floor. Many things caused Sora delay on his quest. The library, full of books with titles to long to leave Sora with any intention of reading them, the laboratory, which distracted Sora but a moment as he paused to gaze in wonder at the various potions, tubes, and vials, and the gallery, full of beautiful paintings and statues.
Sora stopped in front of a statue on the upper part of the main foyer. The statue showed a man, chained and shackled, leaning foward as if hanging from the chans around his wrists. His long hair hung down over his face, nearly masking the hurt and pleading eyes of the statue, from which a single stony tear trailed down its face. Sora stood captured by the statue as if he couldn't tear his eyes away from it. "No..." Sora though "...I have to find Riku." "NO!" Sora yelled as he wrenched his gaze from the statue and his keyblade formed in his hand, reflexivly as he swung. The statue shattered upon contact with the blade.
"Oh... Saw through my little illusion did you?" called a unfamiliar voice that seemed to leak out at Sora from every shadow in the room.
"Who... Who are you?" Sora yelled into the shadows. All he heard in reply was a laughter so dark that it sent shivers down his spine and made the hairs on his arms and neck stand on end. Riku... Where are you? Tell me... I'll find you, I promise.
Sora hugged himself in an attempt to warm the bone reaching cold that the laughter had washed over him. "Haf... Half to... Keep going." Sora chattered through the shivers as he started down the hall to the elevator rooms.
