Disclaimer: I don't own Kingdom hearts, Alex is mine though.

"Impossible. It can't be him." Leon, Yuffie and Aerith were back in the hotel room, Alex and Sora snoozing peacefully in the beds next to them. "He fell out of the gummi ship when we escaped." Leon continued. "There was no way he could have survived the fall into another world."

"I don't know, Leon." Aerith said. "He's the same in everyway. When we talked to him, he had the tone, the happiness in his voice, even the insanity in his eyes."

"Plus," added Yuffie. "It's not the first time he survived something like that. One time, I dropped a bracelet over the balcony. Almost immediately, Alex jumped over the balcony, grabbing the bracelet. I went to get help, and by the time we got down there, we found him sleeping like a baby, the bracelet in his hands. Cid also said he fended off the heartless until he came and rescued him when the castle was overridden. He was only six years old when all of this happened. Imagine him at age 15"

Leon looked back at Alex, who seemed to be mumbling something about pizza in his sleep. The more he saw him, the easier it was to believe.

"Gosh, Donald, ya sure he's around here?" Goofy and Donald walked through the first district.

"Quiet Goofy, I'm thinking." Donald stood still for a second, tapping his webbed feet. Goofy turned around. A shadow heartless appeared, followed by many others. "Uh oh." Goofy said as the heartless surrounded them.

Alex ran. Black creatures were chasing him down the hall ways of a large castle. All he had with him was toy wooden sword. He backed against a wall, the creatures surrounding him. He felt scared, helpless. "Don't be afraid." Alex heard a voice. No, felt the voice. Felt it come, from his heart. "You have the power of light on your side."

"Alex, wake up."

Alex tossed in his sleep. "Come on mom. Five more minutes?" He opened his eyes, and found Aerith shaking him to wake up. "Get up Alex." Alex rose out of bed rubbing the sleep from his eyes. Aerith went into the other rooms. Leon, Sora and Yuffie were talking on the other side of the room. Suddenly, noises were heard from outside.

"Crap." Leon said. "They found the Keyblade. Yuffie, go get Aerith and find a safe spot. Sora and Alex, you follow me."

Yuffie ran into the other room. Leon jumped out the window.

Oh no, thought Alex. I ain't doing that again. He quickly followed Sora out of the door.

The heartless were attacking from everywhere, and soon Alex lost Sora and Leon. He slashed left and right, taking out many heartless in the process. With each slash, he felt something coming back to him. As though he fought before. He ran faster trying to find Sora. Soon he reached the Third district. He saw Sora and two others fighting the heartless. A tall dog and a duck. Can my life get any weirder, thought Alex, trying to ignore the part of his brain saying yes. He ran forward. Come on, do the thunder thing, he urged himself as he fought the heartless. Against the four of them, heartless soon sank away. Sora and the dog slapped hi-fives, while Alex wiped his forehead. "Well, that was easy, wasn't it?" The other three nodded in agreement. There was a loud crash behind them, and Alex knew he spoke too soon. He slowly turned, only whispering two words. "Holy Crap."

A giant heartless stood behind them. It appeared to be missing arms, legs, and a neck. Alex looked quickly at his sword. "Now would be a good time." He said. The dog was the first to attack. He put out his shield, spinning in a tornado formation. "Come on!" he urged the others. Alex sucked up his courage and ran forward. Almost immediately, the heartless punched Alex, sending him flying upwards. He crashed in to the side of a wall. Donald performed a freeze spell on the monster, but it didn't do much. Sora ran forward, Keyblade at the ready, and swung, blocking the punch sent by the heartless. The monster sent out its hands, which seem to think on their own. One of them grabbed Sora. Sora tried to squeeze free, but the hand held him tight. Soon it started to suffocate Sora. His face was turning blue. The dog ran up, trying to free Sora of its grasp. The other arm punched him. Alex got up, anger coursing through him. No one messes with his brother. Except him, of course. He ran forward, blade at the ready. "Die you beastly freak of nature!" Alex attacked the head, knocking it clean off the body. The hands and feet disappeared, leaving the body only. A pink heart popped out, and soon the body disappeared. Alex ran to Sora, who was trying to catch his breath. "You alright?"

Sora nodded, still out of breath.

"Good job." Alex and the others turned and saw Leon and Yuffie. "You took down the Guard Armor all by yourselves," Leon continued. "Especially you, Alex."

"What can I say? I had to save Sora."

"This is for you Sora." Leon handed Sora some money, 100 munny to be exact. "Trust me, you'll need it later.

Alex turned to the dog and duck. "Thanks for your help in the fight."

"Gosh, it was nuthin."

Alex put out his hand. "The names Alex."

"Goofy."

"Donald."

Donald turned to Sora. "You ready to go yet?"

"Yeah." Donald, Goofy and Sora walked towards the door. Alex shook Leon's hand.

"See you later."

"Good Luck, Alex" Alex turned, running after the others.
