Here we go, people! The sequel is here, ready to go! So, I know some people are curious as to how I'm gonna be doing this since we have some extra characters along for the ride. Well, I got ya covered, don't worry. Anyways, this is where things start getting a bit off the beaten path as I'm combining the canon material with some things I think would have been cool in the actual series. I'll just be sure to not go crazy with that, so without further ado, let's begin!

Prologue: Separate Meetings

"Well, this is quite the turn of events." The traveler said to himself as he watched what just happened in the blue sky above. He was standing currently in his own world, on top of the hill with the tree as he lightly scratched his chin.

"A simple transfer of a soul into another universe can change the course of its history almost entirely. Interesting..." Suddenly, he felt an energy spike and moved the vision to the source. On another world in that universe, a new face appears and a rather young one at that. However, the way he entered wasn't like Ragna's.

"An unnatural transfer? Better make sure the situation doesn't get unstable." The traveler equipped his cloak and took off in a portal he summoned, closing soon after.

Sora opens his eyes a bit, but his vision was blurry. He sees a different place and... a yellow dog?

"What a weird dream..."

He closes his eyes again, but got jolted awake by a sudden slam against the chest. His vision regained itself and it still showed the yellow dog.

"This isn't a dream!" He seems to be in a small alleyway as well. He stood up to his feet, looking in awe of where he is now.

"Oh, boy..." He then looks at the dog, "Hey, do you know where we are?"

The dog seem to have noticed something and ran off, "Wait!"

With no other options, he went after the dog and as soon as he turned the corner, he finds himself in a plaza with various shops and people walking around. He walks down the steps as he looks on.

"No way... this means that-" He then realized the situation, "I'm in another world!"

"Oh? Are you new?"

Sora turns to where the voice came from, seeing a man who is wearing average clothing and is quite chubby.

"Uh yes, sir." Sora simply answered.

"I see. Don't worry, we get new people every once in a while. The world you're in is called Traverse Town." The man briefly explained.

"Traverse Town..." Sora mumbled to himself before the man puts a hand on his shoulder.

"Not many of us are lucky when our world falls. Best to carry on with what you can do from here on out."

Sora thought on his words for a bit, remembering what he lost in his world. Most of his friends, family, even neighbors he barely knew. However, he survived and now...

"I have to find my friends, I know they're out there somewhere." Sora told himself, reassuring his new goal now.

"If that's the case, best to prepare for your journey. Check out the shops for items and equipment you need." The man agreed.

"OK. Thank you!" Sora said, climbing back up the steps to the nearest shop, which was the accessory shop.

He enters and looks around, seeing a fireplace and a simple lounging area in the corner. The other side has a green counter with a display case of a beautiful crystal and behind it was a man.

He had blue eyes, blonde hair with goggles and a facial stubble, holding a small toothpick in his mouth along with an outfit that comprised with a white shirt, blue pants, brown gloves and black shoes. He had a tool belt on his waist and was looking at a list of materials.

"Uh, excuse me." Sora said, getting the man's attention.

He quickly turned his head at the sudden voice, "Hey there, how can I-" He then noticed Sora, making him have an eyebrow raised.

"Oh, just a kid." Sora was annoyed at his comment, "I ain't no kid Gramps, the name's Sora."

"I ain't no gramps, the name's Cid!" The man, now known as Cid, retorted. "Anyways, do you need something, Sora?"

"Well-" Sora cut himself off as he thinks about what to ask. Next thing he knew, he remembered about the others. He must have been in some serious shock to just realize that. However, it gave him a question.

"Have you seen a man in a red coat, a woman with blue hair, or maybe another man with armor on his left arm?" Sora asked.

Cid thinks about it for a moment before answering, "Sorry, haven't seen them. There are other districts for them to show up in, due to how big the town is."

Sora thought about the possibility of Riku and Kairi also being here as well, maybe even with the others.

"All right, thanks." Sora said as he started to leave.

"Be careful, kid!" Cid called out as Sora exited.

"So you found him in the alleyway?"

The voice he heard made Ragna stir a bit, his vision blurry as he slightly opened his eyes.

"Yeah, with his clothes torn up rather badly. And his right arm-"

Ragna instantly opened his eyes wide, looking around in his blurry vision in a red room. The decorations were rather nice and matched the theme it was going for, but he wasn't awake to admire. He looks to his left and sees two females sitting at a small table, one younger than the other.

The older one had emerald green eyes, brown hair tied in a braided ponytail with a large pink ribbon, a long pink dress with a metal bracelet on each wrist and brown boots.

The younger one had violet eyes, black hair with a white headband, a green sleeveless turtleneck jumper that bares her stomach, tan shorts, orange fingerless gloves with black arm warmers, and orange sneakers.

It was quiet as the two noticed Ragna was awake, having a brief staredown before he looks at his clothes. Besides missing his red coat, the rest of his attire looks repaired completely.

"Where's my coat?" Ragna asked, breaking the silence.

"Over there." The woman answered, pointing at a coat hanger stand in the corner that hung the coat, which was also repaired.

"We found you in rather bad shape, so we took ya into the hotel for safety." The girl mentions, getting up and walking over to the bed.

"Thanks, I was actually planning for repairs on these." Ragna then stretched a bit, "And you two are..."

"I'm the great ninja Yuffie! And she's Aerith." The girl, named Yuffie, answered. She gestured to the woman, named Aerith, who waved at Ragna.

"Nice to meet you. Ragna." He then scooted to the edge and got up on his feet, "Was there anyone else with me?"

"Nope, just you. Don't worry though, if you got here, they may be here as well." Yuffie reassured.

Ragna nods in agreement, "I hope you're right." He then looks around for his sword as Aerith spoke, "We have friends throughout the town, they may have seen them."

"In that case, tell them to look for a kid with spiky hair, a woman with blue hair, and a man with armor on his left arm." He informed the two.

"Got it! I'll look for Leon!" Yuffie briefly saluted before vanishing in a puff of smoke.

"I would escort you around, but I need to find the King's friends." Aerith said as she got up, "I only showed up when Yuffie told me about you and repaired your clothes."

"Really?" Ragna finds the sword on the bedside and picks it up, "Don't look like much of a seamstress."

"Magic can do more than just attacks and healing." Aerith pointed out.

"Impressive. Thanks, by the way." Ragna quickly said as he puts on his coat and takes his sword, putting it on his belt.

He then walks out the door that lead to the back of the hotel and climbed up to the roof.

Aqua wakes up to find herself in a rather fancy looking piano room, laying on a couch as she sits up.

"Where am I?" She wondered.

"In the Dalmatians' House." She looks over to the door across the room and sees a man walking over.

The man had long unruly brown hair, blue eyes, wearing a black short sleeved bomber jacket that has a fur rim collar with a red emblem that resembles a lion on the sleeves worn over a white v-neck shirt, black pants with a black belt that has a silver buckle, black gloves and black magnum combat shoes. He also is wearing a silver chain necklace with the lion head like on the sleeves and has a scar across the face.

"A dog house?" She questioned.

"You could say that." The man then walked over and sat down in a chair. "I found you outside, so I took you in."

"Thank you. My name is Aqua." She introduced herself.

"Leon." The man simply said in response.

Suddenly, two dalmatian dogs walked over, the male laid his head on Leon's lap and the female doing the same with Aqua.

Leon petted the dog's head as he spoke, "This is Pongo and that's Perdita."

"Are they yours?" Aqua asked.

"No, I'm just taking care of them when they lost their world... and their puppies." Leon answered.

"Oh no..." She muttered.

"I searched the town high and low many times, yet I made no progress. However, I have a feeling they just ended up somewhere else." He explained.

Aqua looked at the dogs, their faces deeply saddened at their losses. She petted Perdita's head as she spoke, "I may not know right now, but I'll find them. I know the feeling of having something taken away, so if they have ended up somewhere else, I'll bring them back."

Her words stunned Leon and have the dogs wag their tails in happiness. After a moment of silence, Leon smirked.

"You know, you say that... and I believe you. There are 99 in total, so good luck."

"9-99!?" Aqua simply had a sweat drop in surprise for her reaction as she thought that to herself.

"Sorry, but I have a little mission that I needed to do. Got to get back to it." Leon mentioned as he got up, walking over to the double doors.

Once he left, the dogs walked over and sat down next to Aqua. She smiles at this and pets their heads before a puff of smoke appears in the middle of a room. A young girl is revealed as it faded, looking around before seeing Aqua.

"Oh, hi there. Have you seen a man with brown hair, black clothing, scar on his face?" The girl asked.

"You mean Leon? You just missed him." Aqua answered.

"Great... this just got longer. Thanks any-" She then cut herself off, "Wait... you're one of his friends!"

"Who?" Aqua was confused by her statement.

"Yeah, the one with blue hair. Yet, he forgot to mention your names." She said to herself.

"Excuse me, what are you saying?" Aqua asked.

"Oh, your friend Ragna told us about you guys, so we're helping out finding ya." The girl explained.

"Ragna, he's here!?" Aqua stood up as she asked this.

"Yeah, he was at the hotel nearby, but I think he left by now." The girl answered.

"Then maybe the others are here as well." Aqua said to herself.

"That's for us to find out! Oh, name's Yuffie." The girl introduced herself.

"Oh, I'm Aqua."

"Nice to meet ya! Now, two to go!"

"Wake up already, young man!"

Terra opens his eyes and finds himself getting poked by something, gently pushing it away. "Five more minutes..."

"Youth nowadays, lazy I say." The voice responded with and suddenly, a jolt of electricity shocked Terra awake.

"All right, all right, I'm up!"

"Good, you were out for some time now. Especially out in the open like this." The man that was speaking to Terra was an elder man that had white hair with a long beard to match, a blue pointy hat and a blue robe. He wore a pair of round glasses, held a wand in his right hand and a travel bag in his left.

"I see. Thank you, your Elder-" Terra cuts himself off as he recognizes the man. "Wait, you're Merlin. The one with the mysterious book."

"Book?... Oh, you're the young man that gave me that! Terra, correct?" Merlin remembered.

"Yes. It's been awhile."

"You're telling me. It's been years since then."

"Years..." Terra repeated to himself before getting up to his feet.

"What brings you here, Terra?" Merlin asked.

"Me and my friends were trying to prevent a world from falling, but failed. I hope the others made it somewhere safe." Terra answered.

"I'm sure they have. Let us go to my house, I know a few people that can help us." The two then entered through a fire seal door nearby with the door closing behind them.

Unfortunately, this happens as soon as Sora enters the district. As he looks around, it was rather empty with few sounds being heard. He walks over to the doors leading back to where he was, but finds it's locked. He scratches his head and looks around to see a rather big keyhole in the wall to his right. Putting two and two together, he summons his keyblade and puts it in, unlocking the doors.

He smirks and pulls the key out before seeing at the corner of his eye, a moving shadow. He turns towards it, seeing a familiar creature from before as more and more showed up.

"Those are from my island! They're here too!?" Sora said in shock.

As the shadows forms together, they combined into one big shadow that shaped itself into a rather disturbing beast, sharp fangs and unnatural movement as it crawled out of the ground. Sora was creeped out by this, but held his ground as the form took shape. Suddenly, a voice yelled out from above.

"Sora!" Dropping out of the sky, Ragna landed in front of him.

"Ragna!" Sora smiled at the fact someone else got here as well.

"You all right?"

"Yeah, I just looking for you guys."

"Same here. But right now, we take care of this."

"Oh, right."

The two changed their attention at the beast, which was actually just standing there as the two spoke. However when they looked back at it, it seemed to jump into the ground... and disappear?

"OK... guess they're smarter than taking us on." Ragna pointed out.

"Why's that?" Sora asked.

"Well, it might have been targeting just you, then when I showed up, it knew it couldn't fight us by itself. May have gone for reinforcements."

"Then we better go." Sora then opens the doors behind him with Ragna following, the doors closing as they entered the First District.

"Any luck with the others?" Ragna asked.

"Sadly, no. You're the only one I've seen, I looked everywhere else." Sora answered.

The two then noticed how quiet it was as the people were gone in the plaza. Only the sound of another voice caught their attention.

"Those creatures will hunt you.." They turned their heads to a man walking down the stairs as he continued, "And they'll always come as long as that key is in your possession."

Ragna was on guard as Sora looks at the keyblade in his hand. He then looks back at the man, "You mean the keyblade?"

"That's right... but I'll never know why a kid like you is wielding it." The man commented as he reached the bottom.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Ragna questioned.

"I'll answer that when you answer all of my questions. First, let's see that keyblade." The man simply answered as he started to walk over.

"What? There's no way you're getting this!" Sora was now on guard as Ragna pulled out his sword.

The man stopped in his tracks, "...All right. Have it your way." He then pulled out a rather interesting weapon that looked like a hybrid of a sword and a revolver.

The three had a small standoff before Sora and Ragna made the first attack.

And done! Sorry if it was a bit confusing, but I wanted to establish where they landed, who they met, and what they're doing. Wanted to have them separated to have more interactions with more characters.

Now a few things I did that you may have noticed:

1. I have the Final Fantasy characters looking like a mix of their original designs and the Kingdom Hearts ones. Another thing is trying to have more of their original personality shown, but...

I'll admit right now, the only Final Fantasy games I've played was some of X and a little bit of VII. So, I only know their personalities from Kingdom Hearts, but I want to have more of their original traits showing alongside that.

2. Also, the landing places are as follows:

Sora - Where he landed in the games

Ragna - The alleyway

Aqua - The Second District

Terra - The Third District

But, their perspectives start after Sora wakes up:

Ragna - The Red Room in the Hotel

Aqua - The Dalmatians' House

Terra - Near the fire door that leads to Merlin's house

3. Another reason as to why they were separated is actually to have Ragna and Leon fight in the story without it being forced or just a friendly match. Sora was just a last minute addition, but it will be a handicap match. I know you will mention Olympus, but that doesn't really make sense in the story anyways.

4. I noticed a lack of heartless shown, so I decided to show a cameo of one I came up with. More will show up later, don't worry.

5. Finally motivated to finish as at the time this will be posted, it's my birthday! So I figured, second time's the charm!

Anyways, thanks for reading and see ya next chapter!
