DISCLAIMER: I OWN NOTHING EXCEPT THE PLOT AND MY ORIGINAL CHARACTERS!

A/N: HELLO THERE! WELCOME TO CHAPTER 16! THAT'S CORRECT! WE ARE MUCH CLOSER TO FINISHING THE STORY! ALL WE HAVE LEFT IS - (Calculates # of Planned Chapters)- About 54 MORE CHAPTERS TO GO!

That aside, I wanted to say a few things before I let you read the LAST CHAPTER for the world of JAMESTOWNE.

Firstly, I wanted to reply to some of you who asked me about the "FFVII Remake".
Yes! I was also a little surprised by the announcement. Personally, I would rather they not include the "dress sequence" earlier in the game. What they say and "show" in that part is all stuff I disapprove of. So, I tend to rush through that segment so I can get to the best parts of the game's story. I also feel a tad anxious... IF they did include it, wouldn't that make the game rated "M" instead of "T"? I will NEVER play an "M"-rated game! I'm pretty particular about what games I play.

So, here are the answers to SOME of the questions I asked at the end of Chapter 15.
(1.) There is no answer needed. This one was NOT a question.
(2.) You'll have to READ THE CHAPTER to find out!
(3.) A Chocobo - It was a reference to "Final Fantasy VII".
(4.) "QUINCY M.E." - This show starred Jack Klugman as a half-Coroner/half-Detective character named Quincy.
(5.) There is no answer needed. This one was NOT a question.
(6.) You'll have to READ THE CHAPTER to find out!
(7.) There is no answer needed. This one was NOT a question.
(8.) There is no answer needed. This one was NOT a question.
(9.) There is no answer needed. This one was NOT a question.
(10.) You'll have to READ THE CHAPTER to find out!

Plus, I included a "Special Scene" at the END of This Chapter. You'll have to READ ON TO SEE IT!

Lastly, I wanted to inquire why hardly anyone read Chapter 5. What was wrong with THAT Chapter? I spent A LOT of time working on it, too!

So, without further ado, here's... CHAPTER 16! READ ON TO YOUR HEART'S CONTENT! AND PLEASE REVIEW, TOO! THERE'LL BE A "FINAL JEOPARDY!" QUESTION WHEN YOU FINISH!

-(JEOPARDY! Theme Song Starts)-

CHAPTER 16
The Compass And A Familiar Face

The night was seemingly endless. The stars above had vanished into a thick, black cloud blotting out the sky. The trees of the forest were still. Silence rang about the land, with the notable exception of the distant war drums. The air was still, not even a mere breeze could be detected. The tranquil wind with its colorful leaves had disappeared.

The river was still flowing as steady as it had before. Yet, none of it drew Sora's attention. He was dismayed. It had been a while since he'd felt this way. Back when he had learned how Organization XIII's true goal actually involved him using his Keyblade… and he had learned Kairi was being held captive — that was the last time he'd been in such a deep slump.

The world was full of Darkness. It was clear there was about to be a significant war come daybreak… if you could call it "daybreak", that is. Knowing how thick the Darkness around him was, Sora had the feeling any daylight in this world would be just as dark as night itself. …Wouldn't it?

He was currently seated on the stump before Grandmother Willow. He saw a depressed Pocahontas kneeling beside him. Donald, Goofy, and Launchpad were sitting on the riverbank, tossing stones, snapping dead twigs, and half-snoozing. For the last few minutes, Pocahontas had informed the old willow tree about the current situation. "They're going to kill him at sunrise, Grandmother Willow," she finished.

Grandmother Willow nodded before speaking. "You have to stop them."

Pocahontas gave a deep, deep sigh. "I can't."

"Child, remember your dream?" the tree inquired.

"Yeah," Sora agreed, recalling the native princess's account of a spinning arrow. As far as he could tell, the arrow was supposed to be pointing her to her destiny. However, she had assumed it was pointing to John Smith. Perhaps she was correct — Pocahontas was destined to prevent a war from breaking out… wasn't she? Or was she just supposed to save John Smith's life?

Pocahontas shook her head. "I was wrong, Grandmother Willow," she wailed suddenly. She ducked her head into her arms. "I followed the wrong path. I feel so lost… "

"Come on," Sora spoke up. "This is no time to beat yourself up. I feel just as badly as you do, but I'm not gonna let anything happen to this world — or any other worlds! We need to take action before the battle starts!"

Pocahontas didn't respond to him. "Is there nothing I can do?" she wept. "Will this really be the end? Is it only death that waits… just around the riverbend?"

When she continued to cry, Sora gave an especially deep sigh. Last time he had inadvertently caused a girl to cry was when he had refused to allow his sister to come along on this important quest. Now he wished Amemi was there… perhaps she would know what to do under these circumstances. Now he would never know.

Everything looked absolutely hopeless….

There was some rustling in the nearby trees. The noise seized Sora and the others' focus. Even Pocahontas looked up, startled by the sounds. "What is… ?" she started to say.

Sora summoned his Keyblade. "Stay here," he told the native woman. "There could be trouble."

Donald pulled out his wand and Goofy held up his giant shield. All three of them approached the edge of the clearing. The sounds continued. For a moment, Sora thought he saw the silhouette of a figure lurking in the shadows. It looked a little like a teenage girl.

"Hey!" Goofy declared as he grabbed the stranger's arm. The figure pulled away. The knight fell to the ground, still hanging onto the figure's arm. "Gawrsh."

Donald hurried over, grabbed the tall dog's feet, and started to pull. Sora sped into action and helped his friends. The scene looked a little like a tug-o-war competition, only with Goofy instead of rope. Sora struggled to hang onto his friend's legs. He and Donald gave one final yank and down they fell to the ground. Goofy landed into their laps. He was still clinging onto the strange figure's arm. The latter had fallen into view.

Sora was shocked and completely surprised alike. It was a teenage girl — one with long, sandy hair, shiny blue eyes, and slightly-tanned skin. She was dressed in a pink shirt and skirt, a red jacket, blue tennis shoes, and she had a yellow hairband. She also had a star-shaped necklace. He could not believe his eyes. "Amy?!"

Amemi gave a shy smile. "Hi, Sora."

Sora was having a difficult time believing his eyes. Here he was, far away from home, in a completely different world. Yet, his own sister was here — directly before his own eyes.

Everyone rose to their feet. Goofy was looking at Amemi in wonder. "Say, ain't ya Sora's purty sister?"

Donald elbowed the anthropomorphic dog. "Yeah, she is!"

Launchpad marched over and shook the sandy-haired girl's hand so rapidly, it looked like a blur. "Pleasure to meet ya! The name's Launchpad McQuack! If it's got wings, I can crash it!"

Amemi shook her head while retaining her smile. "Yes, I remember you, too," she replied. "You were at Sora's birthday party."

Sora crossed his arms. He had a serious look on his face. "Amy, how'd you get here?"

Amemi looked hesitant. "Well… "

Goofy reached into one of his vest pockets and pulled out the purse he'd recovered from Herbie's trunk. "Is this yours?"

Sora shifted his eyes to the small item before returning to face his sister. "You're the stowaway?"

Amemi nodded. "Yes," she confessed. Her smile faded. "I'm so sorry, Sora. But I had to."

Sora frowned. "You could've gotten hurt! You might've disrupted the World Order! Don't you know what this means?! You could have caused lots of confusion and mayhem!"

Amemi folded her arms. "I had to! You wouldn't let me come along!"

Sora was not in the mood for this. Before Donald, Goofy, and Launchpad could say anything, a heated dispute broke out between the two siblings. All they could do was watch from the sidelines, not wishing to get involved.

"You were supposed to stay home! It's too dangerous!"

"You always use that same excuse!"

"So what?!"

"Well, some of us are tried of hearing it! Kairi's been offended by it for a long time!"

"That's not the point! You were not supposed to be here! We'll have to take you home!"

Now Amemi was scowling. "Fine! Then I'm telling Mom you bossed me around, and you know how she feels about that!"

Sora was about to wince in frustration. Now his little sister was blackmailing him. He was not about to tolerate such a statement. "You better not, or I'm gonna tell everyone your deepest secret!"

Amemi gasped. "You wouldn't!"

Sora grinned. "You think I wouldn't?"

"All right! That's enough!" Grandmother Willow shouted from across the clearing. Sora and Amemi instantly stopped their dispute. They stared at one another for a few minutes.

Finally, Sora sighed deeply and shook his head. "Well… I guess the islands are a little out of the way."

Amemi grinned a little. "I won't tell anyone if you won't."

Sora gave a nod. "I know. We're not allowed to tell. Our job to keep the World Order, fight Heartless, and keep peace." He gave a sigh. "It's not that easy."

Amemi's grin faded. "I see… maybe you do need my help." She reached into her pocket and held up a broken piece of jewelry. "I found this lying on the ground here."

Sora was surprised to see the blue stones. "Pocahontas's necklace? How? We saw Kocoum break it."

"I recovered it," Amemi explained. "We can put it back together."

Donald and Goofy both nodded in turn. This caused Sora to smile and nod his approval. The brown-headed young man stepped forwards and gave his little sister a caring hug. She smiled and returned the embrace.

"Ouch!" Donald yelped suddenly. Everyone swung their eyes to him. The duck was rubbing his head with one hand and pointing his fist into the opening in Grandmother Willow's bark. There was Meeko, the raccoon Pocahontas had apparently befriended. "What's the big idea?!"

Goofy bent down and scooped up a round object from the ground. "Here," he said. "This's what he dropped. A-Hyuck! Sure is shiny!"

Sora stepped over and took a look at the item. "A compass?" he said, realizing what Goofy was holding definitely was the thing hikers tended to use to help them know which way was North.

Amemi took a closer look. "Yes, it is a compass," she admitted. "But whose is it?"

Donald snatched the item from Goofy's hands. "It's mine! I found it!"

Meeko jumped from the tree and slid down a vine. He swung over and swiped the compass from Donald's hands before tossing it to a surprised Pocahontas. The native woman started to examine the object. "The compass?"

She noticed a small red arrow was moving as she turned the compass. "A spinning arrow… " Her eyes lit up, realizing what she'd just said.

Grandmother Willow must have heard her, too. "It's the arrow from your dream!" the willow tree exclaimed in amazement.

"I was right!" an excited, relieved Pocahontas smiled. "It was pointing to him."

"See?" Sora said. "There is a Light, even in the deepest Darkness!"

Goofy shook his head. "Huh… "

Sora glanced at his friend. "What's wrong?"

The knight rolled his eyes. "A few hours ago, you acted like you'd forgotten what thuh King said about the 'Door to the Light'. Now you remember it."

Sora beamed. "So?"

Goofy chuckled. "It makes ya wonder why people never remember stuff. You'd forget everything if we let ya, Sora."

"Oh, thanks!" Sora laughed. Everyone else did the same.

Amemi approached her brother. "It's nice to see you smiling again, Sora."

Sora nodded. "You too, Amy."

Amemi smiled brightly. From Sora's perspective, it seemed her sandy hair was giving a distant reddish glow. Not only that, but a series of colorful leaves caught in a gust of strong wind was blowing around the clearing. His smile faded as he gazed into the distance. "Oh no!"

Everyone else turned to see what had grabbed the brown, spikey-headed youth's focus. They could see the blood-red sun starting to poke out from beyond the horizon. Pocahontas stared with alarm. "Sunrise!"

"We need to do somethin'!" Goofy declared.

Donald started to panic. "Hurry or its hopeless!"

Amemi gulped. "This can't be good," she murmured.

"It's not too late, child," Grandmother Willow called out. "Let the spirits of the earth guide you!"

A column of the wind with the colored leaves swirled around the native woman her dark hair bounced around wildly. Sora watched as the compass arrow spun around and around like the main wheel from a game show he used to watch on television.

The arrow suddenly stopped and everyone gazed into the distance. It was pointing into the direction of the rising sun. The sky was now a bright red color. Pocahontas gave a look of clear determination. "Alright!" Sora yelled, certain this was a good thing. "Let's go!"

Within seconds, Sora, Donald, Goofy, Launchpad, Amemi, and Pocahontas were rushing away into the distance. "You know your path, child," Grandmother Willow shouted as they left. "Now follow it!"

The sun was a blood-red color as dawn broke. Governor Ratcliffe took a few moments to admire the shade. It was just as he had imagined a war would really be. The sight of red blood flowing on the ground… he would love to see it coming from the dead savage Indians. Once they were dealt with, he would raid their village and collect his goal. After that, the village would be burned until there was nothing left except ashes.

He grinned. This was one day he wanted to always remember. He drew his sword and held it high in the air. "This will be the day!" he called. He pointed the weapon's blade into the distance. "Let's go, men!"

Behind the governor, all the settlers marched in a group. Each of them was armed with a musket and wearing a helmet and metal body armor. Ben, Lon, and even Thomas were among them.

The only one missing was Wiggins. The thin, young man had been so terrified of the thought of going into battle, he had taken cover inside Ratcliffe's giant tent.

"Now we make 'em pay!" Ben rallied for everyone.

"Devils!" Lon agreed with his friend.

"Kill them!" Ratcliffe shouted in turn. "What are we waiting for?! They're nothing but savages!"

"It's them or us!" Ben and Lon said together.

Thomas looked around in alarm. He did his best to remain inconspicuous, but it was difficult. The idea of him going into battle to fight people he barely knew troubled him. John apparently had trusted those Indians. Now, here he was about to wipe them out for good.

Chief Powhatan could tell the wind that usually blew across the landscape had stopped. Everything was still. The bright-red tint of the sunrise was more than enough to tell him it was time.

Time for battle.

"This will be the morning," he said aloud. He turned back to see all the warriors gathered around. In the middle was the large wigwam with the imprisoned young man. He gestured to the guards. "Bring out the prisoner."

The guards marched into the building and came out with the captive blonde-haired man. Kocoum marched up to the chief. His arm was partly swollen, but at least it was healing… somewhat. "Now without a warning," he rallied. "We will see them dying in the dust!"

"Demons!" Kekata agreed with him. "They're just a bunch of filthy, stinking savages!"

The warriors all shouted in agreement. Powhatan's scowl remained. Perfect. This was exactly what he needed to win the day. He turned into the direction of the rising sun and started off. The army of warriors followed behind, Kocoum leading them.

The colorful wind was still flowing before them. Pocahontas was moving so fast, it took a lot for Sora to keep up with her. Behind him, Amemi was struggling to keep up the pace. Donald, Goofy, and Launchpad were slowly trudging along, though the term "slow" would've been used quite loosely.

Pocahontas suddenly stopped. She stared into the distance. "I don't know what I can do," she said. "Still, I know I've got to try."

She spread her arms out. "Eagle, help my feet to fly. Mountain, help my heart be great. Spirits of the earth and sky, please don't let it be too late!"

Sora nodded. He could tell those words were not just coming from the native woman's lips, but also from her heart. He watched as she spread her arms and started to soar across the ground. The display reminded him of a cheetah combined with a flying hawk.

He signaled for the others to follow. "C'mon!"

Within moments, the group was rushing after the native princess. They followed her clear through the forest. A few times, a small group of Heartless showed up. Each time, Sora yelled, "Outta the way!" and swung his Keyblade to smash the monsters into the nearby trees.

It didn't take too long for them to arrive on the edge of the forest. A steep ridge was located beyond the trees. The side facing the trees was a steep drop, similar to a cliff. They rushed out of the forest and found themselves face-to-face with quite the scene.

Standing on the top of this ridge was Chief Powhatan. Kocoum was a few feet behind him. Gathered all along the ridge and below it were a few hundred warriors. On the edge of the forest stood Ratcliffe and the army of settlers; they were staring up in alarm.

Sora was shocked. It seemed the battle was on the verge of starting. To make matters worse, John Smith was lying on a rock directly on the ridge's summit. Powhatan was holding a giant club-shaped staff and preparing to deliver a fatal blow onto the young man's head.

"Oh no!" Sora shouted when he realized what was about to happen. The odds were certainly against him. Him and his friends, that is. There was no way they could make it up there in time. He immediately glanced around for Pocahontas. She was gone.

"Sora!" Donald shouted, pointing to the top of the ridge. "Look!"

The seventeen-year-old Keyblade wielder spun his eyes back to the ridge. To his surprise, he saw Pocahontas hurrying up the rise to where her father stood. Through the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Amemi starting to charge up to help. He stuck out his arm to stop her. "This is her fight, Amy."

Pocahontas hastily threw herself between her father and Smith. "NO!" she hollered.

Everything grew silent. Thanks to the look on Powhatan's face, Sora could tell he was startled to see his daughter blocking his way. There was no movement on either side. All eyes had shifted to the native princess.

"If you kill him you'll have to kill me, too," Pocahontas told her father.

"Daughter," Powhatan said in a stern voice. "Stand back!"

"I won't!" Pocahontas retaliated. "I love him, father!"

Sora overheard Donald and Goofy gasping in complete shock. He didn't understand why. The two of them had already known Pocahontas and John Smith were in love. He looked around and saw Kocoum still standing beside the native chief; a look of total shock was written on his face. All of the native warriors looked the same. Down below, Ratcliffe and the army of settlers were perplexed.

Pocahontas glanced around the dimly-lit clearing. "Look around you. This is where the path of hatred has brought us." She leaned her head onto Smith as thought protecting him. Her eyes turned to gaze at the surprised look in Powhatan's eyes. "This is the path I choose, father. What will yours be?"

Powhatan slowly moved his gaze across the native warriors lined up on the ridge. They positioned their arrows into their bows, ready to fire on a second's notice. He gazed over the army of settlers; they were all arranged with weapons in hand. He glanced back at his daughter.

Sora gulped a little. His anxiety was starting to rise. Hopefully Chief Powhatan would make a positive choice. This was one of those moments he had heard was often called a "crisis point" in storytelling. It was the part where a character had to make an important decision. One of those was the climax… although the spikey, brown-haired Keyblade wielder wasn't sure if this could be called a climatic event… or could it?

Whatever the case, Sora did know he could sense the chief was feeling a tad uncertain about what to do.

A gust of wind picked up. It was swarming with lots of colorful leaves. Sora and his team watched as it blew over to where Powhatan and Kocoum stood. The two took a deep breath as the gale blew by. The wind continued down to where Sora could see Thomas standing among the other settlers. The two beside the young man looked like they were having a change of heart.

The wind proceeded toward Sora and his friends. It circled the group a few times before moving on. As it blew around him, Sora could feel a strong sensation of tranquility. It would have rivaled what he had felt while venturing through the tunnels of Light in the Realm of Sleep.

He knew what it was. Light — the world's heart was hidden somewhere in that gust of wind and colorful leaves.

The moment continued for several seconds. To Sora and Amemi, it felt like ten minutes or more. At long last, Chief Powhatan made his decision. He held his club-like staff with both hands and raised it high into the air. In a loud voice, he declared, "My daughter speaks with wisdom beyond her years. We've all come here with anger in our hearts, but she comes with courage and understanding. From this day forward, if there is to be more killing, it will not start with me."

He lowered his staff and turned to Kocoum. "Release him."

With a nod of approval, Kocoum marched forwards and cut the rope binding John Smith's hands. The freed blonde-haired man rose to his feet. Pocahontas did the same. They smiled and shared a heart-felt hug.

Sora smiled. He caught a glimpse of Amemi smiling with a few tears of happiness. Launchpad grinned with a hint of love sickness in his eyes. Goofy blew his nose, clearly for a happy ending. Donald grinned brightly, even as Goofy handed him another used tissue.

Sora shook his head. When he saw Thomas and the other settlers lowering their weapons, he knew for certain the war had been prevented. He could also see the native warriors dropping their own weapons. The sky's blood-red color had faded out when the wind had appeared. It now looked like a typically early morning sunrise. A touch of blue and violet mixed together. Was that supposed to be a shade of… indigo?

Now he wondered if Violet's sister was close by. The angel had claimed her sibling was "The Angel of Hope". After witnessing scenes of hopefulness come to life before his eyes, the seventeen-year-old Keyblader was deep in pondering.

Thomas smiled when he saw John and his native friend hugging. On either side of him, Ben and Lon were grinning. So were all the other settlers.

The only one not grinning was Governor Ratcliffe. The large man marched forwards and drew his sword. He pointed it at the ridge. "Now's our chance. Fire!"

Seeing this, Thomas stepped forward. "No!"

Ratcliffe was shaken. Was someone really disobeying his orders?! "What?"

Thomas scowled. "They let him go!"

Ben walked up from behind the young man. "They don't want to fight!"

Ratcliffe glared at the two. "It's a trick! Don't you see? Fire!"

Thomas and Ben stood their ground. Lon joined them. All three men remained scowling at their leader. Ratcliffe was beyond astounded. He was on the verge of an apparent munity. No way would he tolerate such insubordination!

He snatched a musket from one of the other settlers. "Fine! I'll settle this myself!"

He pointed the weapon directly at the native chief. Perhaps he could still eliminate the enemy's leader. Then, maybe they would fork over all their gold to him.

"Oh no!" Sora's eyes lit up in alarm. There was Ratcliffe aiming a gun straight at Pocahontas's dad. He needed to do something! He nudged all his teammates in a hurry. "C'mon!" he called, pointing at the scene before them.

When Donald, Goofy, Launchpad, and Amemi saw what was happening, they nodded and followed the brown-headed young man past a number of warriors up the ridge. As they neared the top, they witnessed a shocking series of events.

John Smith saw Ratcliffe with the gun aiming straight at Chief Powhatan. He broke free from Pocahontas and jumped straight into the native chief. "No!"

Ratcliffe fired the gun. Powhatan fell back a few steps as the bullet struck Smith's side. Down below, Thomas was alarmed. "John!" he shouted.

Sora and his team were appalled. Their friend had willingly jumped into the line of fire to save Pocahontas's father. Smith landed onto the ground, moaning in agony. Pocahontas leaped onto him, distress written all over her face.

It was at this moment when Sora and his friends reached the two. Sora looked closely at John Smith. Amemi glanced at the spot where the bullet had struck him. She covered her mouth. Donald took out his wand and waved it over the blonde-haired young man. Nothing happened. The magician was downright stunned. Goofy and Launchpad exchanged puzzled glances.

Ratcliffe was shocked at what he'd just seen. John Smith had just leaped into his line of fire. It had all happened so quickly, there'd been no time to react. He gazed at the settlers.

Thomas glared at the governor. "You shot him!"

"He stepped right — right into it!" Ratcliffe gulped with nervousness in his voice. "It's his own fault!"

Ben glared at the large man. "Smith was right all along!"

"We never should have listened to you!" Lon agreed with a glare of his own.

The settlers surrounded Ratcliffe. "Get the gun!" Ben yelled.

The men rushed at Ratcliffe all at once. The governor tried to resist them, but there were too many. He was apprehended within seconds. "Traitors! Unhand me, I say! How dare you!"

Thomas seized the musket from the governor's hands. "Put him in chains!"

"I'll see you all hanged for this!" Ratcliffe sneered at the young man.

Thomas smirked a bit. He was not the least bit afraid of Ratcliffe's threats. "And gag him as well."

The settlers dragged the captive Ratcliffe away from the scene. The larger man continued to fight them, but it was in vain. Thomas smiled. He looked back up to the top of the ridge. His smile faded. The ground started to shake. He scanned the clearing. Seeing he was among the few left, he rushed behind a fallen log on the edge of the trees. Maybe he had stood up to Ratcliffe. Maybe he was the new leader of the settlement. That didn't mean he was any less nervous.

Sora gave a deep, deep, deep sigh. Although the war had ended, it was clear there had still been a casualty. John Smith was alive, but he was injured. If only he had foreseen this terrible incident. Sadly, Keyblade wielders could not predict the future exactly. Besides, he needed to maintain the "World Order".

He made up his mind. If ever something like this was going to happen, he would rush in and prevent trouble. He looked around, seeing all of the settlers and native warriors (including Kocoum) had left.

Amemi took a deep breath and inspected Smith's injury. Goofy covered his and Launchpad's eyes with his huge shield.

Donald was complaining a mile a minute. He wildly waved his wand around. "What?! Why isn't my magic working?! Where are my Ethers?! What's going on?!"

"This is where it should've gotten interesting!"

Sora and his team swung their eyes around. Pocahontas and her father did the same. Within seconds, a giant creature charged out of the forest and stopped at the base of the ridge. Sora could hardly believe his eyes. It was shaped like an enormous bear with red claws, grey and blue fur, and yellow eyes. The snout was a black color, which was to be expected. When he saw the animal had the Heartless emblem on top of its head, he gasped.

It was a gigantic Heartless.

However, it was what was on the creature's back that stood out all the more. There stood a young woman sporting reddish-orange hair, blue eyes, and pinkish lips. Her outfit was very complex. To Sora, it seemed to be a dress with a dark-green color, a small purple skirt in the middle, and it had a leaf-like design. Pinkish-purple shoes covered her feet. She also had a purple-colored hairband with a tiny, green wine wrapped around it. There was a golden vine wrapped around her right wrist like a bracelet and she had a strawberry tattoo on her right shoulder. She also had a set of transparent wings that seemed to be shaped like leaves.

Sora was equally astonished and mystified. The figure seemed to resemble Tinker Bell, a fairy he had originally met aboard Captain Hook's ship in Never Land. He remembered how the little fairy had kicked Donald's face for teasing her. She'd given him the Pixie Dust he needed to fly. He'd also seen her in the dreams of the then-Sleeping World of Pixie Hollow. Of course, he knew that had been a while back. That world was not only awake, it had been reunited.

Still, who was this fairy-like person?

"Who are you?" Sora inquired. Perhaps it was time to simply break the ice.

The young woman scowled at the spikey-haired youth. "You had to ruin everything! This world would've been ours."

"Huh?!" Sora, Donald, and Goofy said together. Amemi and Launchpad didn't speak; they were lost in what was going on.

"You know what I mean! Maleficent wasn't kidding. You are annoying, Sora."

Sora was shocked. "You know Maleficent?! But… she's gone. Last I checked, she'd taken control of Organization XIII's world. What happened?"

Donald, Goofy, and Launchpad all exchanged glances. Sora thought he saw them looking a little nervous. He shoved it aside.

"You know what happened!" the woman shouted. "Now, let's get on with those introductions. I'm Thistle, a Garden-talent fairy."

"A fairy?!" Donald exclaimed.

"Gawrsh," Goofy declared. "Do ya know Tinker Bell?"

Thistle glared at the knight. "Never mention that fairy's name! If it wasn't for her, I… " She remained glaring. "Forget it! You ruined my plans here! It's time for some revenge!"

She fluttered into the air. "Here's where it really gets interesting!"

The Heartless charged at the ridge. It slammed its head straight into the rise. Sora didn't have a moment to respond. The impact had sent him, Donald, Goofy, Launchpad, and Amemi tumbling down to the ground below. Pocahontas had covered John Smith, preventing either of them from falling. Chief Powhatan had masterfully maintained his balance.

On the ground, Sora landed onto his feet. Amemi did the same. The other three landed on their sides. They rapidly rose to their feet and pulled out their weapons; Donald with his wand, Goofy and his shield, Launchpad and his gas-gun. Sora summoned his Keyblade and hopped in front of his sister. He glared at the Heartless. "Let's go!" he shouted.

With nods of their own, Donald, Goofy, and Launchpad charged at the humungous enemy. They smacked, clobbered, and bumped into the Heartless. The creature retaliated. Donald was thrown back. Goofy went spinning on his shield. Launchpad was shoved aside and slammed straight into the side of the ridge.

Sora was worried. What could he do now? At once, something clicked in his mind. He reached into his pocket and pulled out the charm with the star on it. He held it into the air. "Come on!" he called aloud. "Let's do this!"

The charm gave a brilliant glow. Before Sora's eyes, a bright flash of Light occurred. A figure appeared. At first, they looked like a glowing star. Then it cleared up. Standing on his right shoulder was a tall, slender girl with light amber skin, salmon-pink lips, short sky-blue hair, and large azure-blue eyes. She was wearing a light-chartreuse, sleeveless dress that was decorated with bluish flowers. She was also giving off a light-blue glow. She looked around in amazement. "Wow!"

Sora was surprised. This was not what he had expected. He carefully placed the yo-yo-shaped charm back into his pocket. "Who are… you?"

The girl turned to face him. She gave a brighter than normal smile. "I'm Joy. Nice to see you, Sora."

Sora nodded. "Yeah, Joy. We've got a problem." He pointed to the Heartless heading straight for him.

When Joy saw the creature she smiling all the more. "No problem! All we need is lots of happiness!"

Sora stared at the tiny girl. "Are you serious?! One of my friends was just shot! How can I be happy?!"

"Happy memories," Joy explained. "Think of something positive. That shouldn't be too hard for you."

Sora hastily searched his mind for a happy memory. His eyes remained locked onto the approaching Heartless. His mind suddenly stopped. He recalled something… something he had never seemed to remember, until now.

Sora slowly opened his eyes and looked around as he sat up. Seeing nothing but the blazing afternoon sun shining in a cloudless blue sky over what appeared to be an endless ocean, he laid back down for more sleep. As his head gently landed onto the sandy beach, a voice shouted, "Sora!"

Startled, Sora sat up and turned around. A teenage girl with auburn hair was looking down at him with a giggle in her voice. He said, "Give me a break, Kairi."

Kairi smirked in reply. "Sora, you lazy bum! I knew I would find you snoozing down here."

Still in a daze, Sora thought that Kairi was in his dream with him."No, you got it all wrong!" he shouted in a flash. "This huge black thing swallowed me up! I couldn't breathe! I couldn't… "

Kairi slapped her friend's face. "Are you still dreaming?"

Sora was shocked. Kairi wasn't catching on. "It wasn't a dream! …Or was it? I don't know. What was that place? It was so bizarre!"

"Yeah, sure," Kairi said, as she started walking towards the ocean.

Sora suddenly had his mind filled with hundreds of questions. He looked towards his friend and asked, "Say Kairi, what was your hometown like? You know, where you grew up?"

Kairi was looking towards the horizon. "I told you before, I don't remember."

"Nothing at all?"

"Nothing."

Sora sat up, his oversized, yellow shoes were about to fall off his feet. Knowing that Kairi missed her hometown he asked another question, "Do you ever want to go back?"

"Well… I'm happy here."

Sora shook his head. "Really… "

"Then again, I wouldn't mind going to see it."

Sora smiled. "I'd like to see it too, along with any other worlds out there. I want to see 'em all."

Kairi turned to him. "So what are we waiting for?"

"Hey! Aren't you guys forgetting about me?"

Sora and Kairi gazed in the direction to see where the voice had come from. Further down the beach beside a large, wooden raft stood their fifteen-year-old friend, Riku. He smiled as he continued. "So, I guess I'm the only one working on the raft."

The two walked over to the raft and sat on the flat deck next to one another. Riku shook his head and said, "You two are so lethargic! By the time you are ready to go, I'll have set sail on the raft, explored every inch of the outside world, and have returned in one piece."

Kairi giggled. "So you noticed. Okay, we'll finish it together."

Riku smiled. "If you two help, it'll take ages to finish this thing. At least, you both remind me of someone from my favorite video game… "

Seeing his smile, Sora and Kairi both burst into laughter. Riku quickly joined them. To them, it was a typical day.

Sora smiled brightly. "Yeah!" Joy urged him. "That's it!"

At once, Sora's Keyblade glowed brightly. Joy gave a determined look. "Let's go!"

Sora gave the charging enemy a determined look of his own. He rushed at it, Keyblade in hand. The two grew closer and closer and closer and closer and closer and closer and closer and closer and closer… and closer. They collided in a flash of Light. Sora slashed his way clear through the Heartless. The creature crumpled to the ground as the flash faded away. A large captive heart was sent drifting into the air as the Heartless faded out of existence. Sora grinned all the more. The enemy had been defeated in a single hit. He twirled his Keyblade happily. A hint of some background music filled the air for a moment. He shrugged it aside. "Well, that takes care of that!"

Joy pointed into the sky. "Sora, what about her?"

Sora shifted his gaze upward. He glared at the figure hovering above. Thistle glared back. "I can take her on!" the brown-headed Keyblader declared.

Thistle was angered. "You really get under my wings!" she snapped. She reached out a hand and a dark portal appeared. "I will see you again, somewhere else!"

Without another word, Thistle soared into the portal. It sealed up moments after she'd vanished inside. Sora turned to Joy. "Thanks a lot, Joy!"

Joy nodded. "I'll be waiting for when you need me again, Sora!"

In less than a second, Joy disappeared in a flash of Light. The charm in Sora's pocket stopped glowing. He smiled, knowing Thistle was gone and Joy had returned to her own world… whichever world that was.

He gazed his eyes back at the ridge. Chief Powhatan and Pocahontas were kneeling at John Smith. Donald, Goofy, Launchpad, and Amemi approached him. They all looked at the ridge, too. "What's going to happen now?" Amemi inquired.

Sora sighed. "I don't know… "

"I do."

Sora's team spun around. They relaxed, seeing it was only Thomas poking his head out from behind a fallen log.

The edge of the river was once again filled with life. Birds were flying, fish were swimming, and otters were playing. The sky was a bright shade of blue. The trees looked just as serene as a painting. Gathered on the shore were Sora's team, Thomas, a few settlers (Ben and Lon included), Wiggins, and the injured John Smith. Smith was lying on a makeshift stretcher. In the harbor beyond was the large wooden ship Sora had seen earlier, the one with all the sails.

Amemi knelt down to Smith's level. "Will he make it?" she asked.

"The sooner he gets back to England, the better," Thomas explained.

"I hope the wind's with him," Donald muttered.

Sora nodded. He had already been made well aware of how the gunshot wound would be fatal unless John Smith was returned to England. "Is the ship ready?" he asked.

"Any minute now," a settler with black hair (Sora had learned his name was Ben) said. He smirked. "Just loading the last bit of cargo."

Nearby, a handful of settlers were taking a gagged and chained Ratcliffe into longboat. "How dare you!" the governor snarled, his voice muffled. "Untie me at once! I'll have your heads for this!"

Sora smirked a grin. "Better safe than sorry."

Donald and Goofy both nodded. Launchpad grinned. Amemi had to smile. "True enough," she quipped.

Behind them, Wiggins was shedding tears. "And he came so highly recommended… "

Thomas knelt down to John Smith. "The ship's almost ready," he informed his friend. "We'd better get you on board. We'll lose the tide."

"No, not yet," Smith said. "She said she'd be here."

Goofy looked around. He suddenly pointed into the distance. "Hey! Look."

Sora and the others turned their eyes to where Goofy was facing. Coming out of the forest was Pocahontas, followed by a number of the people from her tribe. She nodded to them. They placed baskets of corn before the settlers keeping watching at the tree-line. The settlers removed their hats as Pocahontas strode past them and approached John Smith. Thomas walked up to her. "Going back is his only chance," he told her. "He'll die if he stays here."

Pocahontas put her hand on the young man's shoulder. She nodded, so Thomas gave nod of his own. Sora could tell the native woman understood what he'd said. She walked past Sora and his friends. She smiled at them before reaching Smith's stretcher. She knelt down to her friend. "Here," she handed him a small bag. "It's from Grandmother Willow's bark. It'll help with the pain."

"What pain?" Smith grinned. "I've had worse pain than this. Can't think of any right now, but… "

Chief Powhatan was the next one to step forward. He placed a blanket made from animal skin on Smith's stretcher. "You are always welcome among our people. Thank you, my brother."

Sora smiled as he watched Pocahontas's father step back. He could tell whatever had started the idea of war in the native chief's mind was long gone.

Powhatan stopped before Sora. "Kocoum asked me to tell you he's sorry for doubting you."

Sora beamed. "Where is he?"

"Back at the village. He's keeping an eye out for more of those monsters. At least we know they did not come from here."

Sora nodded. "Yeah."

Powhatan smiled. "Thank you for stopping a terrible war."

Sora gave another nod. "You know it."

As the chief left, Sora and his team strode up to John Smith. Meeko and Flit suddenly darted past. Flit landed onto Smith's finger. Smith grinned. "I thought you didn't like strangers."

The hummingbird just smiled. Meeko reached into Smith's hands. Finding nothing, he scowled and ran off with Flit.

With the animals out of the way, Sora's team approached a second time. "Sorry this had to happen," Sora said.

Smith smiled. "It's okay."

Sora nodded with another smile.

"Get well soon," Goofy added. "A-Hyuck!"

"Bye-bye," Donald waved.

"Nice to make more a-friends," Launchpad chuckled.

Amemi was the last to step forward. She held up a blue necklace complete with a white stone in the middle. Pocahontas was amazed at the sight. "My mother's necklace," she realized.

Amemi nodded. "I fixed it for you."

Pocahontas smiled and accepted the item. She carefully placed it around her neck. Amemi stepped back after waving to Smith. She stood beside her brother.

Pocahontas held John Smith's hand for several long seconds. Some tears started to form in her eyes. Seeing this, Smith knew his friend felt the same about this situation as he did. "Come with me?" he asked.

Pocahontas was a bit surprised. She glanced at her dad. Powhatan smiled. "You must choose your own path," he said.

She gazed at Sora's team. "Let your heart decide," Sora told her.

Pocahontas's eyes hovered on the settlers and her people for several long moments. She slowly turned her eyes back to her injured friend. With tear-filled eyes, she finally gave an answer. "I'm needed here."

Smith gave a slight nod. "Then I'll stay with you."

"No," Pocahontas shook her head in a hurry. "You have to go back."

John Smith was worried. "But I can't leave you."

Sora wanted to look down. The emotional scene before him was starting to get to him.

"You never will," Pocahontas replied. "No matter what happens — as long you think of me now and then — I'll always be with you. Forever."

Sora and his friends shielded their eyes as Pocahontas and John Smith shared a final, farewell kiss. They looked back in time to see the stretcher being lifted and carried to a waiting longboat. Pocahontas held onto Smith's hand as long as possible before they were out of reach. Chief Powhatan walked over and placed his hand onto his daughter's shoulder. At the boat, Thomas, Ben, and Lon saw their friend off.

It didn't take long for the longboat to reach the ship. Smith was lifted aboard. The anchor was raised and the sails were lowered. The ship was now underway.

Sora continued to watch. He gave a deep sigh. For some reason, he was wondering if Pocahontas would ever be reunited John Smith….

Pocahontas started to walk away from her father. As she began picking up speed, Sora saw her. Curiosity filled his mind and heart alike. He took off after her. When they saw the spikey, brown-haired Keyblade wielder chasing after Pocahontas, Donald, Goofy, Launchpad, and Amemi were next.

The chase continued up an especially steep hill. They further than ran, the harder it became to proceed. Fortunately, Sora could sense the world's Light was calling him and his friends. They stopped beside Pocahontas at the top of a very tall waterfall. Sora was amazed, realizing it was the same waterfall he'd seen during the speedy descent and crash-landing into this world. In the distance, they could all see the ship sailing for the horizon.

Amemi stopped her sprinting a tad late. She dangled on the edge of the cliff. Sora reached out and grabbed his sister. They smiled. It was then a strong wind picked up from behind. Pocahontas's long, black hair flapped around. Donald, Goofy, and Launchpad held down their hats while Amemi held down her skirt. Sora watched as the wind blew in a curvy style straight to the ship. Spotting the many colorful leaves in it, Sora nodded.

The wind reached the ship's deck in a matter of seconds. John Smith took a deep breath and opened his eyes. He grinned when he saw Pocahontas, Sora, and the others standing at the top of the waterfall. He waved at them.

Pocahontas and Sora waved back while everyone else smiled. Through the corner of his eye, Sora saw Pocahontas smiling. He smiled, knowing this meant only one thing.

John Smith and Pocahontas would be reunited again someday. There was plenty of hope to go around.

Pocahontas's necklace started glowing. The native princess didn't notice, but Sora and his teammates did. It sent a beam of Light high into the air. A giant keyhole-shape appeared. Sora summoned his Keyblade. A beam of Light shot out across the sky and struck the keyhole directly. It unlocked in a surge of Light.

Sora smiled, knowing the gateway to the next world had been unlocked. He was about to put his Keyblade away when the wind before the group started moving in a different form. The shape they now created resembled a keyhole. Sora's Keyblade started to glow. A beam of Light formed at the end of the weapon and shot out at the keyhole. There was an audible lock before the wind broke up the shape and drifted about like normal.

Sora nodded. He gazed into the sky and beamed. "There is always some Light deep in the Darkness."

"You got it," Goofy agreed.

"You said it," Donald added.

"Let's get goin'," Launchpad said in turn. "Herbie might be all a-moldy by the time we find him."

Amemi nodded. "Let's go."

It wasn't long before Sora, Donald, Goofy, Launchpad, and Amemi were back aboard Herbie. They departed from the riverbank and travelled back into space. The world of Jamestowne would now be at peace.

The chamber was rather crowded, for once. Maleficent, Pete, the Beagle Boys, Mortimer, Cinnamon Teal, Judge Claude Frollo, Don Karnage, and McLeach were watching Sora's team on the projection in the middle of the room. Maleficent snorted at the image before strolling to the railing outside.

The Beagle Boys were bewildered. "Why did the Heartless go there?" one of the tall ones asked.

"Yeah," the other tall one agreed. "It was really empty."

"And watery," the third added.

Maleficent snorted once more. "Thistle," she said aloud, reaching her hand out. Her raven landed onto her finger. "She has chosen to take matters into her own hands. If she returns, she will be facing the consequences of her actions."

"What punishment do you mean?" Karnage inquired.

"Something that will serve justice," Frollo stated.

McLeach was staring at the projection in question. "Why? Why did they think that governor was controlling the Heartless?"

"Easy," Pete spoke up. "He wanted lots of gold, see? He was greedy. Greed is Darkness. That's how they were drawn to him. But Thistle's jealousy is much bigger. She kept the Heartless under her control."

Maleficent slowly turned around. Her eyes were wide and alert. She looked like she was shocked. "Why Pete," she marveled. "That is absolutely correct. I'm impressed."

"No big deal," Mortimer stated. "I could've said the same thing. Ha cha cha!"

Maleficent took a closer look at the projection. "I see… Sora and those fools are heading for one of your worlds." She turned to Frollo. "I trust you can handle this?"

Frollo gave a serious grin. "Yes, I can."

"Indeed," the sorceress affirmed. She turned to Pete and the Beagle Boys. "You four will go with him. Use the Heartless wisely. This will be a 'test' to see how well you can work together and take over a world."

The landmass was quiet. Not even crickets were chirping. The lonely tower rose up into the dark sky. The sky of outer space, that is. Riku was sitting on the steps, looking up at the stars. He had already seen some of his favorite constellations. He was still looking for a few Kairi had created.

The door opened. Riku glanced back. Out stepped a young woman with wings, antennae, and a violet-colored outfit. He turned his eyes back to the stars. It was only his friend, Violet. She took a seat beside him.

"Is the star still shining?" the angel asked.

Riku nodded. "Yeah. It stopped blinking."

Violet gave a relieved sigh. "Thank goodness."

Riku gave a second nod. The two continued to watch the stars. "What's going on?"

"Nothing," Violet replied. "Master Yen Sid is still training Kairi and Niccole. Niccole sure is outraged. She devastated twenty-two monsters within a virtual-reality simulator Mickey is operating."

The angel looked at Riku. "Did something occur between you both?"

The silver-haired young man shook his head. "No."

Violet crossed her arms. "You are fibbing, Riku."

Riku gazed at her. "No, I'm not."

"Yes, you are."

"No, I'm not."

"Yes, you are."

"No, I'm not."

"Yes, you are."

"No, I'm not."

"Yes, you are."

Riku smirked. "Yes, I am."

"No you are not," Violet paused, realizing she had been tricked by a cliché joke. She sighed. "I am completely aware of how you fibbed to me. I saw the dispute. You both can become quite agitated."

"What?!" Riku was shocked. Somehow the angel had witnessed the incident a few hours before. He glared at her. "I'm not trusting you with any more secrets!"

He stormed back into the tower. The door slammed behind him. Violet felt her antennae wobble in the resulting vibration. Violet gave a deep sigh. This was something she had never foreseen occurring.

She gazed into the middle of the empty sky. "Did I say anything incorrectly?"

The fog was thick. The sky was full of it. It could not even be seen from the ground level. It wasn't even fog. Mist. It happened regularly. Why not? The town was located somewhere along the coastline. Large forests surrounded the town on three sides while the fourth opened into a small harbor.

One long, paved road led directly through this town. On either side was either a business, shut-down facility, or apartments. A couple traffic lights were positioned at regular intervals and an occasional car or two could be seen.

At one corner was a large building that had been boarded up for ages. The roof was peaked and a large clock-tower was visible. The clock's hands were positioned at about 8:14 P.M. — the time it had seemingly stopped on.

Somewhere in this town was a small diner. The name "GRANNY'S" was lit up above it. Inside, two people sat at a booth, drinking some hot chocolate. Both were wearing black-hooded coats, which the others around them assumed were raincoats.

One was a young man with short, red hair. The spikes at the end of each hair strand partly-shrouded the man's face and kept his eyes hidden in a light shadow. His eyes seemed to be glowing a combination of yellow and orange.

The other was a middle-aged man with a long, black ponytail and small, round eyeglasses. He looked a little like a Native American, too.

The red-haired man was reading a book with a scarlet cover.

"When the war of the beasts brings about the world's end.

The goddess descends from the sky.

Wings of light and dark spread afar.

She guides us to bliss, her gift everlasting."

The man with the ponytail frowned. "'LOVELESS'? Again? Is that your solution to everything?"

"The 'Gift of the Goddess'," the first man grinned. "You know what it is?"

The second man snorted. "Why should I care about simple poetry? I read LOVELESS — cover to cover. Nothing of importance, if you ask me."

The red-headed man turned the book's page. He continued to read the next few lines,

"My friend, do you fly away now?

To a world that abhors you and I?

All that awaits you is a somber morrow… "

"Enough," the other man snapped. "Unless you can explain all those rhymes, I don't want to hear any of it."

The first man put his book down. "The answer is quite simple. The gift is the Darkness, the Darkness we have here and now. It will lead us to the Realm of Light, where we may find ourselves embracing it inside Kingdom Hearts."

The man with the eyeglasses shook his head. "Pathetic arguments. Everyone knows Kingdom Hearts has been locked away, deep within the Darkness. No manner of Darkness can get inside. It is safe, where no one may find it."

The door opened. In stepped a young man with dark-black hair. He was wearing a green sweatshirt-jacket with long sleeves, blue pants, brown hiking boots, and a pair of bright green-colored goggles. Around his upper body was a small, blue bag. He also had a green baseball-cap with a brim. He strode up to the counter.

The two men looked at him in question. "He knows too much," the first one muttered. "He's been in and out a lot lately."

The second man gave a sinister grin. "We shall see," he replied. "We shall see, indeed."

A/N: HOORAY! AMEMI IS BACK! NOW THE STORY CAN START TO PICK UP - SOMEWHAT!
Of course, this also means the end of the story for the world of Pocahontas. Well... that's 2 worlds down, which leaves... SEVERAL MORE TO GO!

Well, I know you're wondering this question: Will I include "Pocahontas 2"? All I can say is, NOT In THIS Story! Maybe in a future one...!

Anyways, I wanted to say this: Yes, Sora tends to be forgetful. If it weren't for Donald and Goofy, he WOULD forget to do SOMETHING! Naive and impulsive... those are Sora's two major weaknesses.

I already clarified where Thistle is from. Look back at Chapter 7 in case you forgot where a particular villain originated from. I can also tell you she will play a larger role in this story. She MIGHT show up here and there! Keep your eyes open!

How about THAT! Sora's first Summon has already come into play! It's JOY!
In case you don't know, JOY is from the "new" Disney-Pixar movie, "Inside Out (2015)".
In case you haven't seen it (yet), she does appear in the Trailers and Sneak Peeks.

So, do YOU think Sora will ever learn about Maleficent and Pete's plans? That's MY question for YOU!

I thought it would be important for me to also tell you this: The "lyrics" Pocahontas says early on in This Chapter are from Part 2 of the song, "Savages". They were cut out of the final movie, though the instrumental music for them remains. You can hear it at the start of the song's Part 2 in the soundtrack.
I HAD to say that. Why? I don't want you to assume I made those "lyrics" up. I NEED to give credit where credit is due. Besides, I thought it would be nice for you to know them. I keep thinking those lyrics every time I listen to Part 2 of "Savages" from the movie's soundtrack.

Plus, I will not say much about the Last Scene in THIS Chapter. It takes place in a distant world, which you might be able to identify based on the description. The characters in it, on the other hand, are mainly "Final Fantasy VII" characters. That's all - said the ball #2!

Since this marks the END of this world's story, here's a "RIDDLE HINT" to the next Disney-based world! THIS IS ALSO YOUR "FINAL JEOPARDY!" QUESTION (I mentioned this earlier)!
HINT: "SORA'S TEAM FIND THEMSELVES IN A LARGE CITY TYPICALLY FILLED WITH INJUSTICE! THE HEARTLESS LURK ABOUT THANKS TO A NOTABLE CORRUPT AUTHORITY FIGURE! THEY SHALL HAVE THEIR HANDS FULL SINCE THE ONLY TRUE INDICATION OF LIGHT LIES HIDDEN AWAY IN THE TOWER OF A CATHEDRAL WHERE THE BELLS RING THROUGHOUT THE LAND!"
I am referring to THIS Disney Movie. Please post your answers in the Reviews section for THIS CHAPTER! Remember to use "What is... ?" (like in "JEOPARDY!")!

So Then, I'll See You Next Time!
In other words, PLEASE DON'T LEAVE WITHOUT REVIEWING! THE FATE OF THIS STORY DEPENDS ON IT!

REMEMBER THIS - A MINIMUM OF 214 IS REQUIRED FOR THE SEQUEL! IF 240 ARE POSTED, I WILL INCLUDE A "SNEAK PEEK" FOR THE SEQUEL ITSELF! HOWEVER, THAT/THOSE GOAL(S) MUST BE MET BY THE TIME THE-SECOND-TO-LAST-CHAPTER IS POSTED! THAT WAY, I WILL HAVE TIME TO ANNOUNCE WHETHER OR NOT EITHER GOAL WAS MET!

This Is SoraLego278 Saying, "See Ya Later, Keybladers!" Plus, "Have A ZIP-A-DEE-DOO-DAH DAY!"
