Well, I've decided to continue this story: so here we go.

Chapter Three: Hollow Bastian

--

The first thing Usagi noticed when she started falling from the sky was that it was cold. Really cold. The second: that she was falling. She shrieked loudly, hoping that someone would hear her and rescue her. Sadly, there was no chance of that, seeing that she was at least a thousand feet up from the ground.

As she drew nearer to the ground, she closed her eyes and braced herself for the impact; but there was nothing. Wondering if maybe she'd died and went to heaven, she opened her eyes, and found herself standing, perfectly straight, on the ground. Surrounding her was a grey brick wall, with streaks of blue. It looked as if she was on some sort of pathway, to a tower of sorts. She let out a sigh of relief, somehow she survived. However, her good faith lasted mere seconds, because before she could blink, a bunch of ugly hideous monsters had surrounded her.

"GAH!" she screamed. "What the heck?"

Struggling to fend them off as they jumped on her, Usagi found herself flying through the air again, as one of the monsters kicked her roughly. Through lidded eyes, she found herself heading straight for a wooden door in front of a house, built into another wall.

Before she could attempt to twist out of the way her head banged against the door, and she fell unconscious, slumping down.

--

"Whaa…?" Usagi groggily came to from the 'Land of Happy Sunshine People.'

She cried out in surprise when she saw large grey eyes peering back at her and shuffled back until her body hit a headboard. She realized she was on a bed, and those unnerving grey eyes belonged to a worried looking girl with short brown hair.

"Woah woah," the girl said, "Don't move so fast, you hit your head really hard."

Usagi stared at her.

"Who are you?" she asked.

She began to panic as she took in her surroundings. It was a small house-thing with a glowing computer-thing in a computer and a little wooden stage thing in the center of the room. Around the house were various, randomly strewn objects, such as books and glowing things. The bed she was currently occupying was placed against the wall across from the door. It looked nice enough, but Usagi was primarily concerned on how she got there. But before she could ask the girl another question, previous memories began flashing back at her.

Memories of going to the Time Gates, and walking back towards to Room of Mirrors, and falling through an elaborately designed mirror labeled Kingdom Hearts in scrawling gold print. Finally, falling thousands of feet high, then being attacked by these ugly monsters, and flying into the door.

Rushed by memories, Usagi began to feel slightly woozy, and leaned back against the board.

Apparently sensing her unease, the girl fussed over her.

"Hey… you okay? You look like your still dizzy."

"Sorry." Usagi replied, but she was trying to figure out what those monsters were. She had never seen anything quite like them. 'Heartless.' She thought. 'That's what Setsuna said when she was talking about being without hearts. So those things, are the heartless?' Usagi shuddered mentally, they were vicious creatures, and she didn't know if she could handle anymore.

"Who are you…?" she asked again

The girl straightened up and grinned.

"I'm Yuffie Kisaragi. I found you lying against the door, surrounded by nasty heartless. What's your name?"

Usagi moved to reply, but the door was kicked open before she could speak.

I apologize for the lateness and the shortness. Next one will be longer.. if I ever get it done... Hum.. o_o
