Jessica's Point of View

I entered Master Yen Sid's study. "Jessica. It's good to see you. What is it that brought you here today?" Master Yen Sid greeted.

"Hello, Master Yen Sid. There's something that may be worth looking into. There were these monsters that Ienzo told me were called Heartless. Ienzo told me that they were experiments gone wrong. They looked a lot like Unversed. I don't know who exactly created them, but I bet it had something to do with Xehanort. He was in league with the Unversed. I would like to look into the situation more," I explained.

"Very well then. If you think that this could be useful, find out what you can about it. I will keep this in mind. Report to me if you find anything," Master Yen Sid agreed.

"Yes, sir," I said before leaving the tower and heading back to Radiant Gardens.

When I went back to the castle. Mr. Dilan and Mr. Aeleus are standing guard at the gate. "Hi guys," I greeted cheerfully.

"Jessica, it's so hard to stand here and look intimidating when you greet us like that," Mr. Dilan teased. I laughed.

Mr. Aeleus opened the door. "Be careful. We could have easily missed some Heartless. If you see any, be sure to run," Mr. Aeleus warned. I nodded before entering the castle.

I walked over to Ienzo's room and knocked on his door. Ienzo opened it. "Hey, Jess. What are you doing here?" He asked.

"Well, I just wanted to know a little more about the Heartless and figured I'd come to you first," I explained.

"Oh, okay. Come on in," Ienzo invited, letting me into his room. We sat on the floor.

"Did Xehanort have anything to do with the Heartless?" I asked.

"Yeah. He came up with the concept and most of the science. We were trying to find a way to control the mind. As much as we all regret it, we had humans as test subjects," Ienzo replied.

"Oh... So the Heartless... They were... Human?" I questioned, silently pleading in my mind that I didn't fully understand the situation, but the way Ienzo didn't answer was enough. "Oh... But, they still needed to be stopped. I don't think you could have just locked them up until you find a cure. It didn't look like a cell would have held them."

"Yeah," Ienzo sighed.

"Do you know anything else about them?" I wondered.

"Yeah. They weren't actually the people themselves. They were really the hearts of people. When we did this, the heart popped out of the person and transformed into a Heartless. That's pretty much all I know. If you want to know more, maybe you should talk to Lord Ansem or Even about it," Ienzo suggested.

"Okay. Thank you." I thanked. It was time to see Mr. Ansem.

And there you have it. Thank you, FanFictionReader225, for your review.
