A/N: Hi readers, this is my third attempt at a fanfiction, and I think that I finally got the idea I want to write about. Also, I have deleted my other two fanfictions that I previously had posted. I wasn't going to bother adding onto them, so I didn't want to lead anyone on that I was going to update with them. Anyways, this story will be updated as soon as I will be able to, and the more reviews that I get, the sooner I will try to update. Also, in my other stories, I was debating whether or not to have the characters from the story do the disclaimer, but with this story I will once I get to the second chapter. Anyways, onto the story, please review, and no flames.

Disclaimer: I do not own Kingdom Hearts, Tetsuya Nomura and Square Enix do.


Chapter 1: Prologue

Sora, Kairi, and Riku were enjoying their leisure time on the Destiny Islands after their last venture in which they subdued Xemnas and the rest of Organization XIII. The trio had been at Destiny Islands for about a month before they were once again called to action.

The friends decided to go to the cluster of islands located off the coast of the mainland to go swimming and enjoy the scenery. Kairi decided to go down to the ocean while Riku and Sora were sitting on the bent paopu tree located on the small chunk of risen land that was connected to the islands by a wooden bridge. As Kairi dipped her foot into the refreshing ocean water, she noticed a glass bottle with a cork clogged in the opening wash up next to her. As the auburn haired girl went to pick up the bottle, she noticed a rolled up piece of paper in it with King Mickey's seal on it.

It's the king's seal; this is probably an important message to Sora and Riku. I better go deliver it to them. Once she was done mentally talking to herself, the auburn haired girl dashed in full sprint towards the seaside shack with led to the wooden bridge. Once she ran up the stairs of the shack, Kairi dashed across the bridge and yelled to her friends "Sora! Riku!" The auburn haired girl then approached her male companions whom were now removing themselves from the bent paopu tree. Kairi then took a couple of breaths after running so fast, and then rose the bottle to their eyesight "Look." Sora and Riku instantly noticed the king's symbol located on the piece of paper. "The king!" The spiky haired brunette then snatched the bottle from Kairi, forcefully flung the cork from the bottle, and then began to read over the piece of paper. The message said as follows:

I wanted to tell you right away,

About memories from the past that sleep from within you,

And about the pieces that will tie your future.

Sora, Riku, Kairi

The truth behind the Keyblade,

Has found its way through so many people,

And now I know that it rests in your hearts.

Sora,

You are who you are because of those people, but they're hurting,

And you're the only one who can end their sadness. They need you.

It's possible that all your journeys so far,

Have been preparing you for this great new task that's waiting for you.

I should have known there were no coincidences, only links in a much larger chain of events.

And now the door to your next journey is ready to be opened.

-Mickey

After reading the message, the trio stayed on the islands debating through their heads what they were going to do about this. Sora later is sitting on the bent paopu tree holding the message in a bottle in his hand. Riku then crosses over the wooden bridge and approaches his spiky haired brunette friends. "Sora," he said.

"Riku," Sora replied.

"Your minds made up?" Riku then inquires to his friend.

"Yeah," the brunette replies calmly.

Kairi then crosses over the wooden bridge to her two friends and then stands in between the two. "Sora," the auburn haired girl chimed in.

"Kairi I…," the spiky haired brunette cut himself off and then looked down at the ground.

Kairi knew what he was going to say, so she then nodded her head in approval. Sora then looked back up and smiled. The two then began to approach each other.

Sora then began to say "It's just…they really need me. I have to go. I am who I am…because of them."

Kairi then gave another silent nod, and then took out her lucky charm and placed it in Sora's hand. She then simply said "See you soon."


This prologue is what really happens in the game, and I am just using it for a starting point. The rest of my chapters will be completely from my imagination. Also, sorry this chapter was really short, but I promise I will try to make the next one long. Please review, and please no flames.
