The Door has opened…
Once we go there's no turning back…
I'm not afraid of the darkness!
Riku…
Riku!
"Huh? What? What's going on? Was I dreaming?" Where am I?
"You're in my Castle!"
"What? Who's there?"
"It is I, Maleficent, Queen of Darkness!"
Riku looked at his surroundings and figured out that he was lying on a bed in an enormous bedroom.
"Where are you? Show yourself!" As he said this, a woman dressed in all black holding a staff appeared before him. "Are you Maleficent?" he asked.
"Yes, my dear boy, I am. And who are you, who arrived so oddly to my castle?"
"My name's Riku, and I don't know how I got here. The last thing I remember was my island being attacked by black creatures, and this big black hole and… wait a minute! What happened to Sora, and Kairi?"
"I honestly do not know what happened to your friends, but at least you're safe, right?"
"I guess so. So where are we anyway?"
"Why, this is my castle, Hollow Bastion. Have you not heard of it?"
"No, in fact, I've never even left my island. I don't know about anything else except my island."
"Oh, so your island is another world!"
"I guess so."
"Interesting."
Meanwhile, in Traverse Town, Sora was starting his confrontation with Leon.
"Hey, Maleficent?" Riku asked, "do live alone in this castle?"
"Of course not, Riku, many of my loyal subjects reside in this castle. Of course, sometimes I send them off to do errands in other worlds. Speaking of errands, Riku, I need you to do me a favor."
"Sure, what is it?"
"I need you t take my ship, in the basement, and fly to the Olympus Coliseum. Can you do that for me?"
"Sure."
"Okay, when you land, you will meet someone named Hades. I sent him there to retrieve something for me, and he hasn't brought it back yet, so I need you to help him get it. Oh, and if his dogs give you any trouble, just use this." She hands him a sword with a pronged blade. "It's called the Soul Eater."
"Soul Eater? That's a pretty grim name for a sword."
"You do know haw to use one, right?"
"Of course, but do I need to use a sword for? I mean they're just dogs."
"You'll see."
Riku went down to the gummi hanger wondering what she meant by that.
When Riku arrived at the Coliseum, it wasn't quite what he expected. Instead of seeing a battle coliseum, he saw a cave that was very dark. Instead of seeing stands of screaming fans, he saw an eerie black mist. He wondered if he was in the right place.
And then he saw it, the big black dog. It was huge. It was only after he noticed its size that he noticed the number of heads it had. 3. 3 big heads on one big dog.
"This is what she was talking about," he said to himself, as he took out his sword.
