Spirit Gate: Prophecy of the Skies
Chapter Two: The Dream
Night had approached quite quickly over Disney Castle. Mickey was looking out of his bedroom window. The others had drifted off to sleep right after their hearty meal. A small smile appeared on the King's face, he hadn't laughed like that in a while. It had been good for him and the others to laugh so hard with Sora's antics and the funny stories that Riku and Kairi told them about from their home world. He had not felt that good in a long time.
He had been surprised to find that the three kids had come to the castle, which confused Donald and Goofy greatly on how they arrived here.
Now I know thought Mickey.
Mickey looked over to the bed, where Minnie was sleeping peacefully. He had guessed that she had invited them to the palace, hoping they would help him. Minnie was such a loving and caring person, worrying over him. He really didn't deserve her.
He shook his head. He knew that something was going to happen. After all, with the opening of the Kingdom Hearts and the falling of Maleficent and Organization XIII things would have been peaceful right away. Yet something was in the air, he could feel it, knowing that it wasn't over yet. Something was waiting to be unleashed and cause more chaos.
Something is coming. I just know it. And it's not that far off. If I only knew what it was.
He had been searching through archives, books, and old scrolls that might shed light to the matter that had plagued his dreams for weeks on end. He had found nothing. He had hope the Ambassador that had come from India might help him, since he had been friends with his father for such a long time, but he wasn't successful with that either.
Mickey rubbed his eyes. Now was not the time to think about those things. He would get some sleep and discuss his concern with his friends in the morning.
He slowly drifted off to sleep.

"Thank you father!" exclaimed a young Mickey as he opened up his present. It was the young prince's birthday and the whole Kingdom had been invited. It wouldn't be long when the Prince would soon be married and become King of their land.
The old King smiled, "Your welcome, son. I hope you like it."
"Wow! It's a sword!" stated Mickey as he awed over his gift. "This is amazing! Now I will able to beat Donald!"
"NO, you won't!" cried the young duck, only to get hit in the head by his master, a great wizard in the entire Kingdom. He told Donald to be quiet or he would be a roasted duck for the main course.
"I can't wait for you to open my gift Mickey!" said a young Goofy in his squire outfit.
"I hope you like my gift, Mickey." said a young Minnie, who was blushing on both of her cheeks. Mickey looked at her and blushed as well. He always felt a jolt when a looked at the young mouse and it made him feel all tingly inside. Minnie saw him looking her way and began to giggle with her friend the young Daisy who sat next to her.
The King and the Queen smiled as well as Minnie's family. They both knew that the two were in love. They couldn't wait for their son to court the young princess, when they both overcame their shyness.
Mickey looked around the whole room. It was filled with people from the rich to the poor. Friends and family were all over the place. The marble stone walls were covered with paintings and banners all over the room, in celebration. Even the suits of armor and statures of heroes had decorations on them as well.
"My son, you are greatly loved in this Kingdom. You have all the qualities of being King. You are loyal and kind to your people. You would protect this Kingdom to the end if your life depended on it."
"You really think so, father?" asked Mickey.
His father smiled. "I know so. You will be a great King."
"It has been foreseen." Called a voice.
The Royal family turned to see all the people part, letting a figure walk up to them. The figure wore a blood red cloak, never showing their body or face. Strange silver symbols were written all over the cloak, one that confused Mickey greatly. They could not even tell if the stranger was male or female. The stranger walked closer to them, speaking:
"Yes it has been foreseen. I am never wrong about these things. Destiny is written in your stars, oh young Prince." The speaker's voice was obviously female, but with a hint of something else that could not be extinguished yet. "A great destiny lies waiting for you. One that only you can accomplish where others have failed."
"I say, who are you to come in this castle and announce…" began the King.
"Silence." Said the speaker, "For what I am about to say next concern's a prophecy. One that will determine the fate of all the worlds in this Dimension."
The atmosphere in the room suddenly grew cold, the candles dimming out, and darkness slowing swirling around the mysterious figure as she looked around the room. The guests trembled in fear on what was going to happen next.
"On the year when the Legion of the Heartless and of the Nobodies comes forth, to unlock the secrets of Kingdom Hearts, the Keyblade will awaken from its slumber and stop them."
"Madness!" screamed someone in the crowd. "It is complete nonsense!"
"Is it?"
Then suddenly Mickey heard yelling coming from beside him. To his surprise it was his father who was doing the yelling. His mother was clinging to her husband in utter fear and terror. He had never seen his father act like this before in his entire life.
"Foul creature! Bringer of Nightmares! Keeper of Dark secrets! Return back to the Land of the Dead, where you belong!" cried out the King to the hooded one. "How dare you enter my Kingdom, with blood and sins marked all over your being from your makers!"
The Land of the Dead? Thought Mickey.
"I'm not done yet, oh great King. Once the Keyblade has stayed in the realm of the Living for twelve Full Moons, the Prophecy will begin. It has been written in the first book of the Ancients. One that you know very well."
The Thirteen Ancient Books? The thirteen books that hold the true history since the beginning of time? But they were destroyed centuries ago, when all the people of the Ancients were persecuted and were never seen again! Only a few copies exist right now, and they are hard to find!
The King's expression turned grim, "How…?"
"The only way that Kingdom Hearts will never be harmed from the hands of pure evil, is that the true Kingdom should protect it from every evil thought or danger known in this realm. The Kingdom that should have been created in the past, but Dark forces kept it from being formed. Now the Future must fix this mistake of the Past, by letting the union of Moon and Sun be accepted by the people in this realm, to bring forth the new Kingdom and protect these worlds from the forces of Darkness once and for all!"
"When Moon and Sun finally reunite, peace than shall be restored!"
What Kingdom? The union of Sun and Moon? What does this all mean? questioned Mickey. He could only ponder this for a minute, when the stranger unexpectedly crept up behind him so suddenly and so quietly, to whisper these words of wisdom for his ears only and nobody else:
"Do you know there is a power greater than Light and Dark? It is even stronger than Life and Death. Or great Prince this power is…"

Mickey suddenly sat up in his bed gasping for air. Beads of sweat falling down from his face, his eyes dilated with fear and recognition.
Minnie then woke up to find her husband in a strange trance. She held on to him, trying to comfort him.
"Mickey? What's wrong? Please tell me!"
He slowly moved his head to gaze in her eyes. The only words that he could form were:
"I remember!"
Gee, I wonder what is going to happen next? You're just going to have to find out in the fourth chapter! I hope to have it updated soon! Please be patient with me!
Please Review!
Thank you!
