I'm sorry, I know this chapter isn't very long, but the chapters will get longer as more plot is added, and more worlds are visted. And when I get rid of my writers block, XD

Oh, and -//-//-//- shows a... Well, call it a flashback, although it isn't, techniqualy.

Thanks for the reviews!

Dear Sora, Riku and Kairi,

Welp, I'm in Radiant Garden with Leon. We've been using Ansem's Computer to do some research.

We were attacked by a lot of heartless and nobodies. As you know, the nobodies should have been completely defeated after you defeated Xemnas. This can only mean something's up. I'm sending Donald and Goofy to Destiny Islands to pick the three of you up. They should arrive at midnight on Monday.

Your Pal

Mickey.

Sora and Riku weren't sure whether or not to be upset or to be excited. Inside they couldn't help but think: We're going on another adventure! They looked up to see Kairi was smiling.

"Don't even think for a second you two are going to leave me behind." She crossed her arms. "Remember what I said? At the Alter of the Naught? 'Wherever one of us goes, the other two follow?' Well, that means I'm coming."

Sora and Riku both opened their mouths to protest.

"The letter asks for the three of us! So, I'm coming, okay?" Sora and Riku glanced at each other.

"Okay." Sora nodded. "But first, I'm teaching you some moves."

"Block it Kairi!"

Clang!

Riku listened to the training outside the secret place. They had run home to tell their parents and gather supplies, and now they were waiting. And training. Riku clambered through the hole (He also thought it was getting smaller.) and watched.

Kairi was actually quite a good fighter. She frowned in concentration as she blocked another one of Sora's attacks.

"Naminé said something about the realm of darkness." Kairi suddenly said out of nowhere. Sora stared at her in shock, not blocking her attack and being hit on the nose with the keyblade.

"OUCH!" Sora rubbed his nose. "Well, that's weird, because Roxas said something like that as well."

"I thought you said that you weren't able to talk to Roxas, Sora?"

"Well, I can't. But I heard him in this dream I had…" Sora's voice trailed off.

"Stupid dreams…" Riku repeated from earlier that day.

"Why do you hate Roxas so much Riku?" Sora frowned, still rubbing his nose. He knew his best friend hated his nobody, and he wanted to find out.

"Because he's a—" Riku's words were cut off by the sound of engines.

"They're here!" Sora sprinted out of the Secret Place, followed by Kairi and Riku. A Gummi Ship landed not-so-elegantly on the island.

"What do you think you're doing you big palooka!!?" Quacked an angry voice from inside.

"Garwsh, sorry Donald!" The doors of the Gummi ship slid open.

"DONALD!! GOOFY!!" Sora ran over and hugged his friends. "How are you?"

"Fine. Apart from the fact Goofy can't drive the Gummi ship." Donald replied.

"Sorry Donald. Hello Kairi and Riku!" Goofy waved over to the aforementioned Kairi and Riku.

"Hello! It's nice to see you again!" Kairi smiled politely.

"Welp, we'd better get going soon. We're expected in Radiant Garden soon. If we don't show up, the King might worry."

"Why would the King worry?" Riku frowned. He knew King Mickey better than Sora and Kairi, and the King didn't often worry.

"Because of-" Donald started to talk before stopping. "Well, because of all the Heartless and Nobodies around."

"Yeah, well, we can take them!" Sora grinned.

"Yeah, course we can!" Riku and Kairi nodded.

"Well then." Donald looked at the Gummi ship. "We should get going!"

Sora hadn't faded at all when it came to controlling the gummi ship. Donald was just pleased that Goofy wasn't driving, Goofy was also pleased that he wasn't driving. Riku and Kairi, who had never been in a Gummi ship like this before, were asking endless questions.

"What happens if you press that button?"

"We all die. So don't touch it." Riku grinned and stepped away from the button in question.

"What did your parents say about you guys going away again?" Goofy couldn't help but ask.

"…"

"…"

"…"

"Guys?"

"I knew we forgot something." Kairi face-palmed. "We are so dead."

The rest of the Gummi ship journey consisted of a discussion on whose parents would kill them more.

They decided that it would probably be Riku's.

"We're here!" Sora proclaimed, opening the door of the gummi ship. Outside was the Radiant Garden.

"Wow!" Kairi stepped out of the Gummi ship first. "It looks amazing!"

"Looks like the Radiant Garden Restoration Committee did a good job." Riku looked around. The whole world was so different from when he first saw it. When he was being possessed, and it was called Hollow Bastion.

"Why, thank you!" A girl's voice snapped them out of their thoughts.

"Yuffie!" Sora smiled at his friend.

"That's me! Come on, we have to meet Leon and the others at the Castle!" Yuffie ran in the direction of the Castle.

"Does she ever stop moving?" Riku asked Sora.

"No." Sora smiled and ran after the ninja. As they ran across the Bailey…

"Heartless!" Sora leapt into his fighting stance, followed by Riku and Kairi.

"And nobodies!" Five dusks appeared out of the ground.

"And…" Kairi felt her cheeks go red. Argh! What is that called?

"What d'ya think it is?" Goofy asked. Kairi felt slight relief, followed by heavy panic, when she realised that she wasn't the only one who didn't know what it was.

"I- I don't know." Sora looked at Riku who shook his head. Oh crap.

The thing stared at them. It looked like a man in armour, but the head was too streamlined. It was mostly covered in black, with red 'decoration', and its head had white patches on it. 'It' stared at them, before running forwards to attack.

-//-//-//-

He was going to die. He knew it. The man's grip tightened on his head. He struggled, trying to break free, but it was hopeless…

Where was she? His eyes searched the barren landscape. She had to be here somewhere…

Blue eyes locked onto blue. He stared at her. He wanted to yell, to scream 'I'm sorry.' But it was too late. Too late for everything. He felt the chill and was gone.

-//-//-//-

She stared as he fell. He smashed against the barren rock, flakes of ice falling off. She was falling with him. She felt like she was falling through space. A hole with no bottom. No end.

He landed right next to her. She held him gently. He couldn't be gone. Did his eyes move? Or was it her imagination? She couldn't tell.

They were bathed in a blue light. She stared up as a blue heart shaped moon appeared in the sky.

Kingdom Hearts.

She hated it.

-//-//-//-

He removed his helmet. Anger ran through him where his blood should have been. It couldn't be happening. That… He wasn't even a man. Any human being should have showed regret. But he had smiled. Laughed, practically.

And blue eyes turned gold.
