Door to twilight

Chapter 2

Getting started

(Here is chapter two to my story. From now on I will try and make the chapters longer. I will also be doing a lot of switching back and forth between Cloud's POV and normal POV. Also I am going to have two story lines going. One for Riku and his group, and then for Cloud and his group. So in most chapters I am going to switch back between the two story lines.)

Disclaimer: I do not own Kingdom Hearts, or Final Fantasy.

Cloud's POV

---------------------------------------------------

The first thing I saw when I opened my eyes, was a white sealing. Looking around the room I noticed that it was panted white also. I also noticed that I was lying in a bed. But for some unknown reason I could not recall ever being here before.

It was at that moment that I realized their was vary little I could recall. I did not know were I was, were I came from, or what I was doing in, what I assume to be a hospital. The only thing that I can recall is a name. If the name is mine or not I do not know. The name is Cloud. Just Cloud. No last name, just one name. Or is it a name? I do not know but right now it's all I can remember.

It was at that moment the door opened and a man walked in. The man was dressed in a pair of black pants, a white shirt, and black jacket. He had spiky blond hair, and light blue eyes. He also had a strange tattoo on the left side of his face.

The man seemed surprised that I was awake, because he jumped back several feet when he saw me looking at him. It was at this time I heard him speak.

"Dude, you're awake!"

I found it odd that he seemed so surprised. He made it sound as though I had been dead. I saw the blonde talking to a girl in a white uniform, if I had to guess I would say she's a nurse. The girl ran off down the hall, all I heard was something about getting the doctor. The man the turned to me.

"I'm glade finally up dude, you've been out of it for about two weeks now."

That would explain why he looked so surprised when he saw I was awake. Still I wondered what had happened to cause me to lose consciousness for that amount of time. I saw him getting ready to ask me something, so I returned attention to him.

"By the way my name is Zell. What's yours?"

So that was his name, Zell. Intrusting name. Not wanting to seem rude I decided to give him my name. At lest I think it's my name.

"I'm Cloud."

Riku POV

-----------------------------------------------------------------

I have a bad felling about this. Now if only anyone would actually hear what I'm trying to tell them. But whatever, like always Sora and Kairi are to busy flirting with each other to hear what I've been telling them.

I'm still not used to them going out yet. Now don't get me wrong I'm happy for them, but it's wired seeing your two best friends being boyfriend and girlfriend. They started dating right after Sora and I got back to our Island, about six moths ago.

Want some free advice. Don't leave your home and miss over a year of school. Because if you do, when you get back you have to makeup all of the classis you missed, and all the homework. The only reason I finished last mouth is because I was already two years ahead in math, science, and history. So that helped because I didn't have to do any of those subjects, but I did have to do all the others.

Some how Sora convinced his mom to let him take two weeks to relax before school starts agin. So he came up with the idea to have all of us go and visit some of "our friends." Of course when he says "our friends" he means Kairi and his friends.

So anyway he rote the King and asked him to send a gummi ship that we could use for our vacation. And two day's later a gummi ship was sitting right were we had built the raft. But sitting in the driver seat was a letter from the King, it said:

Ha-Ha, good to hear from you Sora. I know you want to take a vacation but we have a problem. I want to tell you more but it is better if you hear this in person. Grab Riku and Kairi and head to Radiant Garden, you'll get some answers their.

-King Mickey.

Not much to go on but all of us trust the king, so were heading for Radiant Garden right now. But I'm not thrilled about the idea of going back there. It hold's some bad memories. I really hope Sora's Friends don't know too much about what happened two years ago. From what Sora tells me, they moved back after I was already gone, so there shouldn't be too much of a problem.

Sora, being the one with the most experience, was flying the gummi ship. Kairi was, much too my surprise, vary good at working the gun turret. That left me sitting in the back with nothing to do but sleep. But as I found out, it's not easy to sleep in a gummi ship. But whatever, were almost their anyway.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Radiant Garden has been busy. There is now a huge town, and it's getting bigger. I can see new buildings being built all over the place. Looks like the restoration comity has been kept busy.

Once we got out of the gummi ship we were greeted by a woman wearing a pink dress. She had brown hair tied back in a pony tail. She also had vary clear green eyes. I saw Sora's eyes light up in recognition. So I'm going to guess that he knows this woman.

"Aerith!" Was the first word out of Sora's mouth, so I'm guessing that's her name? I also so that Kairi seemed to know her too. I guess I'm the only one who doesn't huh.

"Hello Sora, Kairi. It's good to see you two agin."

Aerith had a vary soft voice. But I knew from experience that even if someone looks, or sounds weak, there is a good chance that they can turn around and kick your butt. At the moment Aerith was talking to Kairi, getting caught up on what had happened on Destiny Island while Sora and I were gone.

After a minute Aerith turned and led us towards Merlin's house. It was a rather odd house. It had what looked like an umbrella on the roof. And the roof of the house was shaped like a sorcerer hat. Other than that it could pass as a normal house.

Inside the house were a bunch of people, some sitting, and some standing. I recognized some of them. Donald and Goofy, for instances, were easy to recognize. Then there was the King. However there were a lot of people I didn't know.

There was a man with brown hair and blue eyes. He was warring black pants, a white t-shirt, and a black jacket. He had a lion necklace on and a scare running down his nose. Then there was a man with blond hair and green eyes. He had a pair of tan pants on, and a white t-shirt. He had a pair of goggles on his head and a piece of straw in his mouth. Then there was an old man with a long white beard. He was wearing what looked to be pajamas.

Then there were five other women in the room. First there were three in black close. One had long brown hair and red eyes. She was also wearing a pair of gloves that had what looked like brace knuckles on them. Next to her was a girl that looked to be around my age. She had short black hair, and brown eyes. She also had a large Shuriken. Then the other girl wearing black had gray hair with a punk stile outfit. She had a sword on her back.

Another girl had Brown hair and brown eyes. She was wearing a white top, a blue short/ skirt thing, and a pink scarf. She had a pair of pistols at her side. The final girl had blonde hair and green eyes. She was wearing a yellow bra thing, dark green shorts, and a yellow and orange scarf.

After the king saw that we were inside he made his way over to us. "Gosh, it's been awhile hasn't it guys?" He asked with a smile. "Anyway, Riku I don't think you meet every one so let me introduce you. That's Leon, Cid, Merlin, Tifa, Yuffie, Paine, Yuna, and Rikku." He said while pointing at each one.

I could tell this was going to get confusing. A girl with the same name as me, I just know this is going to get frustrating.

"What a minute, the last time I saw the three of you, you were less than a foot high. What happened?" It was Sora who asked that, and he was looking at Yuna, Rikku, and Paine. A foot tall? Was Sora smoking something at the time?

It was Yuna who answered his question. "When Radiant Garden fell to darkness, instead of becoming Heartless, we became fairies. A little while after you beat Xemnas we asked Merlin to find a cure spell. And he found it about two weeks ago." Ok so maybe Sora wasn't smoking something.

There was a bright light and there standing in the doorway was Yen Sid. I had met him right after the King and I got out of Castle Oblivion. And let's just say that Yen Sid and I didn't hit it off. He didn't trust me because of the amount of darkness I had in my heart. And I didn't like him because he treated me like I was going to kill him, the King, and everyone in the universe.

Yen Sid walked into the middle of the room and looked around. He then turned and said something to Merlin. He then turned to face Sora, Kairi, and I. He looked right at me before he final decided to talk. "Now that everyone is here I will tell you why I asked the King to bring you hear.

"Let me guess, there's some powerful dark force that wants to destroy everything." The words came out of my mouth before I really thought about what I was saying. But judging by the annoyed look on Yen Sid's face I'm guessing I'm right. I hadn't acutely been serious, but still it looked as if I was right. Yen Sid never was one to give good news. And besides that I had been felling a lot of dark energy over the past couple day's.

"Yes Riku there is a powerful dark force out to destroy us. However it is not just one person this time. This time there are six powerful dark users against us. We know who four of them are, but the last two are unknown to us." It was the King who answered this time. He paused a minute before continuing. "There is Maleficent, who we all know too well. But there are also her two sisters."

Now that came as a shock. Maleficent having sisters. It was at this time that Yen Sid took up were the King left off. "Maleficent is the middle chilled and gained the power of fire from her father. Her two sisters gained the power of ice from there mother.

The oldest is named Jadis. She is queen of a world called Narnia, be force. She is vary powerful with magic, but is also vary skilled with a sword. Her magic wand also has the power to turn anyone it touches to stone.

The youngest of the three sisters is named Edea. She focuses fully on magic. She can use vary powerful spells to destroy opponents with devastating power. She is considered the weakest of the three sisters. But do not underestimate her, or she will destroy you.

The forth user of darkness is the Horned King. A powerful wizard that seems to have the same power level as Maleficent. He is an undead wizard who was once defeated when he ruled a kingdom. Another kingdom went to war with his and he was killed. But because of his magic he was raised from the dead.

That is all we know of the dark wielders." Yen Sid's words hit everyone hard. Four powerful magic users and still two more people who are unknown. Sounds like this vacation just went to hell.
