Disclaimer: I don't own kingdom hearts.

Note: Much of the game dialogue will be used in the story. Also, I have the tendency to make Alex do weird things so bear with me!


Falling, falling. Clouds whizzed by him. Alex could see the ocean under him. Great. He doesn't know how to swim. He got closer, bracing himself for impact.

"Alex, wake up!"

Alex opened his eyes. Donald was driving the ship, and Goofy was sitting off to the side. Sora had shaken him awake and walked off. Alex sat there, his dream still in his mind. That was weird, Alex thought. I thought I knew how to swim.

Meanwhile...

"He hasn't changed a bit has he?" Cid said to Leon in his shop.

"I know. He even fights the same." Leon wasn't the only one happy to see Alex again. But he probably was the happiest. When he was younger, ten years ago, Alex would always have pretend duels with him. He taught Alex many skills. The memories still lived in his mind.

Ten years ago...


"Come on, Squill." Alex the five year old kept following a teenage Leon, who seemed to be getting annoyed by him.

"It's Squall, not Squill. And no, I'm not gonna play sword fighters."

"Please, your so good at it. And you're my best friend ever."

"No."

Alex pouted his lips, and walked off in the other direction. Leon kept walking, feeling a little sorry for the kid. He seemed to look up to him a lot.

"PLAY WITH ME!" Alex jumped onto Leon, knocking him over. All feeling for Alex left Leon, or at least his limbs.

"FINE, FINE! I"LL PLAY! JUST GET OFF OF ME!"


Back to the Present...

"Leon? LEON, SNAP OUT OF IT!"

Leon came back to the present at the sound of Cid's screams.

Back to Alex and Co...

"Here we are." Donald said as he opened the door to the outside. Alex and the rest immediately shot out of it. "OH BOY, A NEW WORLD! WHAT SUPRISES WE'LL WE FI--!" Alex looked down, and noticed he was on air, the ground fifty feet below him. "Crap."

Then started the free fall. Everyone was screaming like little girls, except Alex, who seemed to be praying to God at the same time. Soon everyone felt solid land in the most painful ways possible.

"GOOFY, GET OFF MY ARM!"

"GAWSH, SORA STOP HITTING MY HEAD!"

"DONALD, STOP HITTING ME WITH YOUR STAFF!"

"I THINK I LOST ALL FEELING IN MY..."

"DONALD, NO NEED FOR THAT KIND OF LANGUAGE! THERE ARE, LIKE, CHILDREN HERE!"

After fifteen minutes of major pain, arguments, curses, confused combat, and exchanged punches between Sora and Alex...

"Oh, I'm going to be late. Must hurry." Everyone stopped their fighting to see and odd little bunny run by. As he moved down the hall, you could still hear his remarks about being late for something. Alex got up, brushing the dirt off. He turned to the others. "Should we follow?" Sora, Donald and Goofy shrugged, not sure what to do. Some adventurers.

Alex sped down the hallway, the others in close pursuit. Soon they fell onto a door. Alex quickly opened the door, pushing it aside. When they entered, they saw the rabbit, the size of an ant, run through a door. Sora crotched near the door. "How'd he get so small?" Sora asked aloud.

"It's not how he got small, but how you got so big."

Everyone jumped back. Alex pointed in front of Sora and said, "The door just talked to me," in an insane type person voice.

Sora got over the shock the quickest. "How do we turn small?"

"Over on the table, there are two potions. Drink the blue bottle, and then you'll shrink." The door then went back to sleep.

Goofy reached over and drank the potion. At once they all shrank down to the size of bugs. "Come on guys." Sora, Goofy and Donald started for the hole in the wall. Sora looked back and saw Alex standing there. "Alex?"

Alex suddenly got a goofy look on his face. "I'm going mental. That door talked to me." He broke off laughing. "Next thing I know, that dog's gonna say something."

Goofy turned. "Alex?"

A shocked look went on Alex's face, and almost immediately he fainted. If he was pretending, he was a good actor.


"Whatcha doing, Alex?" Alex turned to find Kairi standing at the entrance of the secret place. He took one quick look back at his drawing. It showed Godzilla beating up King Kong while helicopter shot them from above. He turned back to her, shrugging. "Nothing really." Kairi walked in and sat next to him. She looked at his drawing.

"It's a nice picture."

"Thanks." There was a silence between them. Kairi picked up a sharp rock and drew here own picture. Alex watched her. She drew a castle, surrounded by waterfalls.

"Wow, that's an awesome picture," Alex commented.

"Thanks. You know, it looks familiar."

Alex took a good look at the picture. Something tickled in the back of his mind. "Your right, it does. But what?" Kairi got up brushing dirt off her skirt. She walked to the entrance. "You coming, Alex?"

Alex looked back at the drawing. He then turned to Kairi. "Yeah, let's go."


"Alex, wake up!"

Alex opened his eyes. There was a giant duck in front him.

"AAAARRGHHH!"

"It's okay, Alex, it's just Donald." Alex calmed down.

"Come on, Sora, let's go!" Goofy pointed to the hole in the wall. Sora and Alex got up and followed Donald and Goofy.


Alex and Co. walked through the doorway. They saw the rabbit run up to a pedestal in what looked like a courtroom. The judge, a plump woman that looked like mix of the queen of hearts and the queen of spades, hit her mallet against the counter.

"Order! Order!"

Sora took a step forward to get a better look. Two soldiers, resembling playing cards, stepped up and blocked his path with their weapons. Alex eyed one of them.

"Are those things real?"

As if to answer him, he felt a sharp jab in his rear end.

"YYYYYOOOOWWWWW!"

Everyone in the courtroom turned. The big fat judge slammed her mallet against the counter.

BAM! BAM! BAM! "Order, people, order!

The rabbit blew a trumpet. "Court is now in session!"

A young blonde girl looked around, confused. "I'm on trial? But why?"

"Her Majesty, the Queen of Hearts, presides!"

Sora heard a laugh from beside him and turned. Alex was cracking up.

"Her majesty! The queen! Now I know you ain't talking about Fat Albert over there."

One of the soldiers gave Alex a look. Alex returned an innocent smile. The queen ignored them.

"The girl is the culprit. There's no doubt about it. And the reason is...because I say so, that's why!"

"That is so unfair!"

"Well, have you anything to say in your defense?"

"Of course!" the girl responded. "I've done absolutely nothing wrong! You may be queen, but I'm afraid that doesn't give you the right to be so...so mean!"

"Silence! You dare defy me?"

Sora turned to the party. "Hey, guys, we should help her out."

"Yeah, but the..." Donald started.

Goofy continued. "We're outsiders, so wouldn't that be muddling?"

"Middling," corrected Alex.

"Meddling"! Donald shouted.

"Oh," said Alex and Goofy said at the same time.

"The court finds the defendant...guilty as charged! For the crimes of assault and attempted theft of my heart...Off with her head!"

"No! No! Oh, please!"

"Hold it right there!" Two voices shouted at the same time.

Sora and Alex pushed the cards out of the way and entered the courtroom.


Their first visit to a different world. Not the best way to start a journey, trying to kill each other, eh? Anyways, please review.
