And now, for the next chapter! Anyway, enjoy!

It was another day on the Destiny Islands as Sora was happily playing with his best friends, Riku and Kairi as they were chasing each other along the beach, playing pirate. It was probably the most enjoyable experience Sora ever had with his two friends. Ever since Kairi moved in, she was bonding a lot with the boys as she told them about moving from another place from far away, which she didn't remember much of.

That was probably what got both Sora and Riku interested in traveling out of their town and... probably far away from the island that they row over towards. Well, they usually had boats to go to that island, but they knew it wasn't enough just to travel by boat. That's when Kairi came up with the idea of maybe building something larger to carry all three around the world... like a raft. Naturally, both friends were drawn to Kairi's idea, and both were trying eagerly to impress her.

Sora could admit it, he was still a little weak in terms of fighting back then, but he had been getting a lot better. Heck, the more Sora grew up, the more challenges he won against his best friend, which was all in good, clean fun.

Of course, Riku would often tease Sora about having a small crush on Kairi in secret, but whether he was being jealous or just playful, even the spiky haired kid couldn't figure it out. Sora couldn't help but smile as he seemed to enjoy the good times with his two best friends... until he stopped and noticed that something black was surrounding him. He looked around fast and noticed... there was no island. Nobody was here except for him and... Kairi?

"I can feel it in your heart, Sora."

Sora blinked in confusion as he watched the red haired girl pace around. "I know you feel like you like me... but... what about other girls, huh? If you fell for another girl, would you tell me?"

"Huh?" Sora blinked. "I... well, yeah, I suppose I would, but... that doesn't mean I don't like you, Kairi."

Kairi paused as she looked up, not even looking at Sora as the boy raised an eyebrow. After a while, Kairi couldn't help but giggle. "Sora, you always had a good heart, but misguided intentions. I just hope you make your choice soon..."

All of a sudden, Kairi started to disappear before his eyes. "Kairi? KAIRI?"

But then, Sora stopped as he noticed that she wasn't disappearing... but forming herself a little... in fact, her hair turned long and black, situated in a ponytail, her clothes changed from a white top and purple skirt and bike shorts to a blue crop-top with blue harem pants... and her big white shoes also transformed into dainty, yellow curled slip-on shoes. In fact, Sora had to squint as the girl that replaced Kairi couldn't help but give a sensual wink at him.

"What th-" Sora started to ask...

Sora's eyes snapped open as he jolted awake, rubbing his head. This had to have been the strangest dream he had ever witnessed, and yet... that last part felt... real. He couldn't explain why, but... he knew Kairi was in it, but... she felt more... heartbroken. He didn't even know why that was.

His eyes quickly looked around as he noticed someone sleeping on a nearby bed. Princess Jasmine was snuggled up, trying her best to sleep as she turned. Sora couldn't help but note the small smile on her face as she slept peacefully. It was then the Keyblade wielder noted that somebody else was missing. Sora raised an eyebrow in curiosity as he noticed an open trap door that seemed to be covered by a small rug. Looking curious, he went down the trap door and followed the stairs down below, Keyblade ready, not knowing what he was going to find down there.

As he kept travelling downwards and downwards, he heard the sound of a familiar voice. Recognizing the voice to be Sadira's, he immediately started going downstairs as he found the bottom and found her. She seemed to be reading from a scroll and waving her hands, as if trying to do some magic. She had a red amulet around her neck as she seemed to be concentrating on that. Eventually, a red beam came out of the jewel as it started to form into a large twister. Sora couldn't help but watch but be amazed as the twister continued to grow and grow. Sadira gave a smile to herself as she continued to wave her hands around, as if trying to bend the world to her ways. Eventually, she clapped her hands as the twister disappeared and the jewel stopped glowing.

"Wow... that's impressive."

Sadira jumped as she immediately held up the jewel and turned... only to relax as she noticed it was only Sora. "Oh, it's you. How did you find this place?"

"You left the trap door open." Sora noted, making the brown haired woman facepalm.

"Ugh, I knew I forgot to do something." Sadira groaned as she gave a sigh. "Well, I suppose there's no point in keeping it a secret. Come on in."

Sora gave a nod as he walked into Sadira's base as he took a seat before looking around to see the small area filled with scrolls, spells and large sandy area. "I suppose this is where you go to practice your magic."

"Well..." Sadira nodded. "Pretty much. I found this place by accident one day when I was trying to get away from the guards. Aladdin went one way, and I went the other in hopes to confuse them. However, I stood in one place for too long and dropped myself down here."

"And you found this place?" Sora asked. "What is this, anyway?"

"This was, I suppose, the original lair of the Witches of the Sand, who disappeared thousands of years ago." Sadira sighed. "There was a sandworm that used to live here, but he immediately left when I brought up that fact."

Sora blinked a few times, but decided not to question what Sadira meant by that. The girl gave a grin as she said, "Anyway, ever since then, I've been looking over these scrolls and learning spells, but I suppose you know that already, since I told you and Jasmine about it."

Upon hearing Jasmine's name, Sora couldn't help but blush furiously as he tried to look away. However, Sadira noticed right away as she gave a smirk. "What's the matter? Had a little wet dream?"

Sora looked confused as he turned to the brown haired sorceress. "Wet dream? I don't even know what that is?"

Sadira gave a small smirk as she leaned over and whispered in Sora's ear. Sora's eyes widened in pure terror as he squeaked, "I did not need to know that. And no, it wasn't THAT type of dream."

Sadira laughed. "Hey, don't blame me when you go to bed later tonight and start having another one."

"I wasn't having one of those!" Sora groaned as he held his head, trying to remember the world order as Donald told him. "It's just... well, I don't suppose that you have one friend you like... I mean, really like?"

Sadira paused as she gave a sigh. "Yeah, I know the feeling."

"Well... I thought I had it with said friend, but then I meet another friend and I think she's cute and all, and... probably even sweet." Sora said, trying to choose his words carefully as Sadira looked amused. "But... then there's the first friend again. I spend my days trying to look for her and my other friend, but then I meet the new friend and..." Sora looked down and groaned, holding his head. "I'm sorry, it's a little complicated to explain."

"No, I think I follow." Sadira smirked. "So, you have or maybe had a crush on a friend of yours that you are spending your life looking for, but then you met Jasmine and all of a sudden... wow, she's beautiful!"

"Wha- I was not talking about Jasmine!" Sora blushed furiously.

"But you implied it." Sadira crossed her legs, causing Sora to blush even further. "Oh, don't feel too bad. Between you and me, I think I seen Jasmine feel more comfortable around you."

"But... she's a princess and... well, how could she ever fall for someone like me?" Sora asked. "I'm just a person from... another island, and she's from the... century..." Sora paused as he put a hand on his chin. "Now that I'm thinking about it, what time dimension do these worlds I visit usually take place in? Wonderland sounds like 19th Century, but then I move back to Greek mythology, and then the 20th century? No, that doesn't make sense, because where do Merlin and the Fairy Godmother fit? Are we time travelers?"

Sadira, who was watching Sora in amusement at first, looked at him dreadfully confused. "What are you talking about?"

Sora, realizing that he was still talking to Sadira, shook his head. "Uh, never mind. Just thinking to myself. Anyway, I'm not even sure her father would approve of someone that's..."

"...a street rat?" Sadira tried to fill in the sentence.

"...I was going to say a normal person." Sora said.

"Well, I didn't hear you denying your feelings for Jasmine... so maybe you're in love with her." Sadira gave a smirk, making Sora blush again.

"But... how could that be? I only knew her for... a day." Sora said.

"Hey, sometimes stranger things have happened." Sadira shrugged. "But if you really don't know your feelings for Jasmine, here's what you could do... try to hang out with her, find some hobbies that you two share, take a walk around town, protect her with all your might! Maybe it'll be telling of what you want."

Sora paused as he put a hand on his chin, trying to think about it. Sadira sighed. "Why don't you try to sleep again and you can just give it a try tomorrow?"

The Keyblade wielder looked at Sadira as she gave a smile. "Trust me, you need to socialize with the locals a lot more... if there are any that are willing to brave the streets."

After a moment, Sora gave a grin as he nodded, "All right, I'll take Jasmine out with me for the day, BUT... this is not a date! I'm just taking her out around Agrabah and see where we go from there."

Sadira laughed as the Keyblade wielder got up. "Sweet dreams, Sora. Maybe you'll have your first wet dream about that Arabian princess!"

"DARN IT, SADIRA!" Sora called out as he ran upstairs.

The brown haired street rat couldn't help but give a laugh before sighing as she looked at her scrolls. "Maybe some more magic before I sleep..."

As she put the pendant back around her, she couldn't help but give a sigh. "Oh, Aladdin, I hope you're okay..."

Meanwhile, walking along the streets of Agrabah, Jafar and Maleficent were looking around as they were having a secret meeting.

"And the Keyhole?" Maleficent asked.

"It's not in the city, nor is it in the palace... but the Heartless are searching head to toe." Jafar noted. "We'll find it soon enough. That just leaves..."

All of a sudden, a squawking sound was heard as the two villains looked up, just in time to see the familiar red parrot landing on Jafar's shoulders as he frowned impatiently.

"Okay, I searched everywhere for that dainty princess, and you know what I found? NOTHING! ZERO! ZILCH! NOT A THING!" Iago frowned as he ranted, much to Jafar's annoyance. "Can we just assume she ran out of Agrabah yet?"

"No, no." Jafar frowned as he held the bird's beak. "She hasn't left town. I can feel it. She must be in disguise somewhere."

"Well, how come we haven't seen any Heartless yet to bring her back to us, huh?" Iago complained.

"Oh, quit your yapping, Iago. You're lucky I got the diamond in the rough out of the way in searching for the Cave of Wonders." Jafar frowned. "It would be nice to get the lamp, but with the darkness of the Heartless on my side, we won't need it."

"What you DO need, is to find that princess and bring her to me." Maleficent frowned as she glared at Jafar. "Need I remind you that we need all seven princesses to unlock the final door?"

"Believe me, I didn't forget." Jafar rolled his eyes. "Though if push comes to shove... I could always... use her father and her tiger as collateral?"

Maleficent just stared at Jafar with a blank look on her face. Jafar coughed a little. "Of course, there is an easier way to locate her..."

"There IS?!" Iago growled. "Why did you send me to fly around Agrabah then? If you could have just used your easy way and bring her to us, you could have at least-"

But, this was as far as Iago went before Jafar grabbed his beak and slammed it shut as he gave a frown. "Don't worry. We'll find that princess in no time."

Maleficent gave a nod as she turned around. "Remember, don't steep yourself in darkness too long. The Heartless consume the careless."

Jafar just laughed. "Your concern is touching, but hardly necessary."

Maleficent frowned as she vanished without a word. Jafar gave a nod as he started to walk off. "Come, Iago! We have some work to do if we are to find our princess!"
