Sorry guys that it took so long for me to finish this, but better late than never right. I finally found the inspiration to write for this one again. I kinda took a break and wrote a few other stories of the final fantasy xiii crew. If you haven't read them check it out. Anyway on with the story.

"All right, everyone onboard!" Yuffie cheerfully said.

The girls had finally gotten to the gummie ship. They had parked it closer once they got the distress call from Donald and Goofy. The girls helped Torhu and Kairi while Donald and Goofy helped Kyo on board the ship. Kyo refused at first saying he was fine, his pride always getting in the way, but when Torhu finally told Kyo to let them help he finally gave in. Kairi was so exhausted that Tifa quickly found a spare bed and let her rest.

"Wow this place is amazing! Is it really a spaceship, like the ones that go into outer space?" Torhu was ecstatic. Even though the enemy was still behind them fighting the guys, she couldn't help but gawk. The girls led them to a sofa and set her down, Donald and Goofy set Kyo next to her.

"There now we should be safe. There's nothing to worry about." Tifa encouraged them, as she came back into the room.

Aerith was already on her knees healing Torhu. Slowly you could see all the cuts and bruises fade away like nothing had happened. "There you're as good as new, though I would still like it if you would rest. You got a lot taken out of you and you're going to need your strength." She then turned to Kyo and did the same.

Torhu watched her intently. She had no idea who she was or what she was doing, but she knew that they were friends and that they should be thank. "Thank you. That is very kind of you to help us."

"Not at all. I'm glad we were able to help. Were also glad that you're now safe." Aerith finished up with Kyo and sat on the couch across from them. "You're probably wondering what's happening here."

"Who the heck are you people?" Kyo had no idea who they were, or what they were for that matter. Being able to heal people like that. "More importantly who the heck were those people after us? I mean were just two normal people, why were they after us?" Kyo knew that one, he was not normal, and two he knew something was up due to how everyone was acting, but if they somehow knew them, then he wanted to know.

"Well were not sure who those guys were that were after you, well I take that back. We know who one is but not that archer dude. He's new to us." Yuffie chimed in putting her hands on her hips. "Anyway, we do know they were after her." She pointed to Torhu.

Torhu couldn't believe it. They were really after her…"But why?"

"Well you see…I'm sorry, we don't even know your names! My name is Aerith." She bowed slightly.

"The name's Yuffie!"

"I'm Tifa; it's good to meet you."

"DONALD!"

"Ha-yuck and I'm Goofy!"

"I'm pleased to meet you all. My name is Torhu Honda and this here is Kyo Sohma."

"Ya, ya. Enough with the introductions already. Just get back to why the heck are they after Torhu." Kyo crossed his arms; you could see a twitch in his eye from being annoyed.

"All right then. I shall continue, but first, Donald and Goofy. We need you to fly the gummie ship to the others so they can get on."

They both saluted. "You got it Aerith!" Donald squawked.

"We're on our way." Goofy chimed.

Aerith nodded and turned back to the new teens. "You see Torhu…you're a princess of light." Aerith explained.

"A WHAT!" Kyo practically yelled

"Wha…me a princess? I think you got it all wrong. I'm not a princess at all." Torhu stammered. She couldn't believe what was being said. How could she be a princess? She knows that her parents were not royalty, far from it.

"It is indeed true. Let me explain."

"You as heck better." Kyo stated. If she really was a princess, then he was screwed. There was no way on earth he could ever be with her then.

"You see we are from another world. The stars you see in the night sky are all worlds." Aerith continued. She saw that they were both going to say something again, but if that kept up she would never get done explaining to them, so she held up her hand to stop them. "Please let me finish and I can answer all your questions later. Within these worlds there are seven princess of Light. They possess pure light in their hearts. When all their hearts come together, they create a door to a place called Kingdom Hearts. It's a place that is sought after by our enemies. So far they have tried twice to open the door, but we have managed to stop them."

"If there are only seven then why me?" Torhu couldn't hold back she just had to ask.

All Aerith could do was smile. "You my dear, you are the eighth princess. We ourselves have just found out and we are here to protect you. You are the most powerful princess out of all of them and that is why they are after you."

Kyo looked at Torhu. If all they were saying was true, then Torhu was in far more danger. He saw Torhu getting worried. Her face always showed her emotions and right now she was scared. He hated it when she looked like this. He wished he could do something for her, but what could he do. He was a cursed cat. Nothing was ever good about the cat.

"Was I chosen to be a princess or is it in my blood?" Torhu spoke quietly. Unsure of what to think about everything that had happened.

"I'm not sure of that myself, but I do know it's not in the bloodline. You have a very pure heart. A heart that is full of warmth and light. You are very special compared to the others."

"Like the other princesses?" Torhu wanted to know more, she had to find out more.

"You are able to break curses Torhu. We think that is one reason why these people are after you."

"Wait…I can what?" Torhu was baffled. She could break curses?

"She can what?" Kyo basically jumped out of his skin when he heard this. Torhu could break their curse? The curse can be broken?

Torhu basically leapt toward Kyo hugging him. "Did you hear that Kyo!"

"Wha…Torhu!" Kyo was unable to stop her. She was full blown in Torhu mode now.

"Did you hear that Kyo!"Torhu squeezed but she was suddenly stopped by a familiar loud POOF! She looked down at Kyo. Hiding her embarrassment. "Uh sorry Kyo."

"TORHU! WHY THE HECK DID YOU DO THAT! Ugh great, now we need to explain this to them." Kyo had just transformed into a small orange cat with his clothes lying under him. He dipped his head in defeat sighing with everyone looking in shock.

"How did you?" Yuffie stammered, pointing her finger at the orange cat that was now sitting on the couch. "What did you? How can you talk?"

"Well, now there's something you don't see every day." Tifa was crossing her arms trying to wrap her head around the matter.

"I think he is cute." Aerith knelt down as she started to pet the newly found cat and scratch him behind the ear.

Kyo backed away from the annoying brunette with the braid. "Hey, don't touch me." Kyo jumped off the couch and started too walked to the door. "Torhu let's go." He was very irritated, mainly from the fact that he was turned into a cat in front of everyone.

Yuffie stepped in front of him "Now wait just a minute. We didn't come all the way here for you to just leave. I mean we rescued you." She bent down and picked him up. Kyo was squirming and putting up a fit, but the ninja girl never let go. "Besides, I want to know how you were turned into a cat." She said smiling, poking at him.

Just as quickly Kyo had turned into a cat, there was another POOF! He had turned back into himself still in Yuffie's arms….naked. Yuffie screeched dropping him calling him a 'pervert'.

"Oh my." Was the only thing Aerith could say.

Tifa chuckled tossing Kyo his clothes before the orange smoke disappeared. Torhu was already prepared covering her eyes. "So…" Tifa started, "Does this happen often."

Kyo was pulling on his shirt "Torhu…it's ok, you can look now." He said with an exasperated sigh.

"I'm so sorry Kyo. I didn't mean to do it. I was just so excited about hearing that your curse can be broken."

"You mean you guys are under a curse? Is that why you turned into a cat?" Tifa now interested in the conversation. Intrigued about the whole thing.

Kyo sat back on the couch sighing. "Fine…we'll tell you." He paused so he could find the right words. "My family is cursed; there are thirteen of us who turn into animals if we are hugged by the opposite sex. It's from the Chinese zodiac. We have been like this for generations. When someone dies, a new baby is born with the curse."

"Hey I know about the Zodiac! There was a great feast but the cat got tricked and was never able to go. Since you turned into a cat…you must be the cat of the zodiac!" Yuffie said bluntly.

Kyo rubbed the back of his neck. "Ya, so what's it to you?"

Yuffie just smiled. "Ah nothing. Just that you don't look very smart, so it must be true."

Kyo got red in the face "Why I ought to…" he said through clenched teeth but was calmed when Torhu touched his arm. He then relaxed a little trying to fight the urge to clobber the black haired pip squeak.

"This is very interesting indeed. Where are the others? I would like to see them to." Aerith asked politely. She was hoping she could help at least a little.

Kyo and Torhu looked at each other with sad eyes. Torhu then looked at the ground. Tears were welling up in her eyes. Tifa noticed this and didn't like the looks of it. She knelt down and placed a hand on her shoulder. "What is it? You can tell us."

Torhu remained silent, letting the tears fall from her cheeks. Tifa looked at her friends wondering what happened to them. She looked at the cat boy and he too looked as if he didn't want to talk about it. Kyo heard Torhu's sniffles and gritted his teeth. It was that entire stupid rat's fault…or was it? He looked at the women who were staring at him and he sighed.

"Might as well tell you guys. You never know, you might know what the heck is going on." Kyo stood and walked to the nearest window looking out. He noticed they were flying in the air. He never even felt them take off. These people were amazing. "We're not sure what happened to them, but they were acting different."

"Different how?" Tifa walked up behind him.

"I'm not sure really. Usually everyone is happy around Torhu and would never lay a finger on her, but they all seemed to band together and they started to take everything out on me. They then brought Torhu out to watch them beat the crap out of me." Kyo then started to get emotional remembering what they did to them. "Then that stupid rat Yuki, asked Torhu if she would take my place. He knew she would. She agreed and everyone just seemed to enjoy him hitting her and kicking her." He now had tears in his eyes. How he hated seeing Torhu in pain. "He enjoyed it. He was having fun with it." He turned toward them. "I may hate his guts, but that was not Yuki, or any of them for that matter. None of them would even dare to think of hurting Torhu."

Torhu had stopped crying, though she still sniffled. She was touched at Kyo's words and knew them to be true. She heard the tears he was shedding, tears of hurt from what he has known to become friends. She walked up behind him holding his arm, being careful not to turn him into a cat again.

"He's right. When I looked into their eyes, they seemed so hollow, so blank. There was no life in them at all."

The three remained silent. Did they even have the slightest clue as to why they were like that? Who knew, but what they did know was that those two teens were going to have a hard life unless they didn't figure something out.

Kyo then turned around using the window for a back rest, leaning against it. "What I want to know is why I haven't been affected. I'm part of the zodiac to, so why not me?"

Aerith stepped forward. "Could it be because you were kicked out from the feast and you're not considered part of it?"

Kyo thought a bit about it. "You know that might be right."

"I'm also going to guess that, that man was responsible for making your friends act the way they were. If not anything he works for the person out to get Torhu." Tifa stated, holding her chin in thought.

Yuffie looked out the window and interrupted the conversation. "Hey guys sorry to break this up, but were landing and the guys are still fighting a pretty big battle. I suggest the kids move to a safe part of the gummie while we pick up the guys."

Tifa cracked her knuckles and put on her black gloves. "Alright, we do get to fight some. They always need us to save them."

Aerith motioned for Kyo and Torhu to follow her. "Here come this way." They both nodded and agreed.

Reno was busy bashing one of the nobodies with his rod, when he heard the gummie land. "Oh look, the Calvary has arrived." He teased. "Hey Rude knock this baby to pieces." He swung his rod so hard that it sent the nobodie to rude who smashed it to the ground. "Like a pudding."

Sora was busy using aero to block the rain of arrows falling on the group. The Raven guy was skilled in his element but with the combination of Riku to help them they over powered Ravens rain of arrows. Meanwhile cloud and Leon were busy fighting and dueling it out with Luxord, slicing at his card games and to win the game. It was harder than it looked. Cloud hears a familiar voice callout to him as she joined the fight next to him.

"It's about time Tifa. What took you?" Cloud harassed her, but in a teasing way.

"I'll tell you on the ship, but we need to leave. Things have gotten a little more difficult than we thought."

Leon then joined in the conversation. "Right. EVERYONE BACK TO THE SHIP! SORA, RIKU, GIVE US COVER. RENO, RUDE. YOU GUYS FIRST!"

Reno smirked "No need to tell me twice. Come one big guy, were outa here."

"Right behind you." He spoke in his deep voice.

Sora then made their way close to their three friends. "Riku, you cast fira and try making a wall of fire so they can escape."

"Nice plan, but what are you going to do?" he asked bluntly.

He just smirked. "I always wanted to try this. Use the aero to push us to the ship."

"Clever." He smirked. He liked the idea. He just hoped it worked."

"FIRA!" Riku shouted.

A wall of fire then formed in front of the three from Luxord's attacks. All three saw their opportunity to escape and ran straight for the ship.

"Any time Sora." Riku called out.

Sora pointed his Keyblade forwards and concentrated on aiming. Riku stood close so he would be in the blast path and hopefully get to the ship with Sora. "AERO!" Sora yelled and a burst of wind formed where they were and pushed them just as Sora had planned. They were away from most of the enemies and ran the rest of the way inside the gummie with their friends waiting for them to get on.

"Ok you guys their on! Take the ship up NOW!" Cloud called out. "Everyone find a seat and buckle up."

With that the ship lifted from the ground and took off into the sky. They could hear tiny pings from what their guess was, were Ravens arrows trying to penetrate their ship. Soon the ship was high in the atmosphere, safe and sound.

Well they finally took off from Tokyo and now on to a Disney world! Which one do you think it is? Let me give you a guess. Riku interrupted two people there from a special moment *evil grin*

Riku: that was fun. I enjoyed.

Me: it was devious and mean. He is a late reward for you. Have some ice cream.

Sora: I want some!

Me: Sorry this is for Riku, but if I get a review or two…I may give you some.

Sora: Really! Ok come on review! I WANT SOME ICE CREAM!
