CHAPTER 2

Present Day

"So..." Sora said. "How long have you been waiting?"

"About a week."

"Holy crap Kairi! You're joking right?"

"of course I am, Sora, a week? C'mon Sora, no one is that gullible."

"Garsh Kairi, he thought that this girl named Mulan was actually a boy named ping."

"You have GOT to be kidding me Goofy!" Kairi said, giving Sora a raised eyebrow that said, dude, come on.

"I'm not-"

"Yes! Yes he is kidding! Hahaha..." Sora gave Goofy a look that could kill, and Goofy, realizing Sora didn't want to look bad in front of Kairi, shut his mouth.

"So what are we gonna do now that the worlds are at peace?" Riku asked Mickey, messaging his shoulder, with no effect.

"Riku, when you're a keyblade Wielder, there is one thing you learn very quickly: the worlds are never at peace." King Mickey said, with a snigger from Sora.

"Shut it, Sora."

"You wish."

"I swear to God dude I will kick your ass."

"Your injured, dude you can't do shit."

"...damn it."

"Owned."

"That's it Sora your ass is-"

"Guys, Guys, chill."

"After Sora's on his ass crying his-"

Kairi raised her hand as if she was going to slap him. "Riku give up or you will feel some of my hand slapping the crap outta your face."

"You're getting Kairi to beat my ass now Sora?"

"It worked."

"Never mess with ginger's or you will get owned, fact of life."

"Respect."

"Well," Mickey said with a sad look in his eye. "Me, Donald and Goofy here are leaving, but we'll call you when there is trouble. You guys have fun now."

"so long Mickey." And with a flash of light, they were gone.

"So, Sora, what should we do now?"

"Hmmm, how about a race, just like old times?"

"Dude I'm a cripple, remember?" Riku said, gingerly trying to roll his shoulder for good measure.

"You hurt your shoulder Riku, not your legs."

"So?"

"so... 321GO!" Riku bolted towards the docks; where there were boats waiting to take them back to the mainland.

"Hey don't pull that on us your 16 for crying out loud- wait, Sora, where are you going?"

"C'mon Kairi, last one there is a rotten egg!"

He looks hot when he runs; Kairi thought to herself. I wonder if I should tell him? Whoa, Kairi keep those kinds of thoughts to yourself you don't know what he would say, besides, he's been to plenty of worlds this year what if he met someone? That would be so embarrassing! And now you're talking to yourself, real normal Kairi.

"C'mon Kairi, were going to be late!" Riku yelled, getting into a rowboat and picking up the oars.

"Coming!" Kairi said, breaking into a run towards her good friend and crush, without there being a risk of losing her heart, for the first time in a year.

YEN SIDS TOWER- 2 DAYS LATER

"Master Yen Sid," Mickey said, "You Never come to Disney Castle, You know I don't mind if you summon me, I've gotten totally used to the dizziness, really."

Master Yen Sid laughed, which sounds a lot heartier and happier than someone would think by hearing him talk. "Mickey, summoning you here through a portal is completely nauseating, even one who uses them as often as you, and I'm sorry I've put you through such discomfort, no matter what the urgency. Besides, my tower is currently linked to Disney Castle, and your world is so beautiful, it makes you remember why we fight for the worlds in the first place."

"That's always been my purpose, to make sure I can come back to the things I love: walks in the gardens on a sunny day, reading in the library, and, don't tell Sora, Playing three-on-three basketball."

"With your agility, basketball would almost be easy."

"There's a second reason. Just before I noticed the stars going out, I had a nightmare of Disney Castle in flames." Mickey said, shuddering at the memory. "Everyone was panicking, and there were heartless everywhere, and everyone's hearts, Donald's, Goofy's, even Minnie's, were being taken. When I woke up, I promised myself I would never let that happen. You still haven't told me why you came to get me, Master."

"All in good time, my friend, all in good time. The forces of Darkness are growing, Mickey. The Heartless have gained a massive boost in strength, and beings have been seen wearing cloaks similar to those of the late Organization XIII. These people all have powers exceeding my own, and you will need to find warriors capable of dealing with these people, for whoever they are their intentions are almost certainly dark in nature."

"But Master Yen Sid, where am I going to find more Keyblade Wielders?

Master Yen Sid chuckled, "Mickey, the Wielders of The Keyblade have the potential to become the most powerful warriors in the worlds, but right now none of the known Keyblade Wielders have ascended to even the first step in becoming an all-powerful Keyblade Master, except you and I, and even I don't know how to commence the next step in that process. Also remember what I've taught you: do not overestimate one's own ability. Maleficent and the Organization were not Keyblade Wielders, and they gave you and Sora enough of a challenge to keep you on your toes."

Mickey stared at the ground, slightly ashamed. "Gosh, when you put it that way, it makes sense. Wait, does that mean that that there are warriors as strong as me and Sora that are good?"

"Yes," Yen Sid said. "There are certain warriors of the light, ones strong enough to keep up with the strengths of us Keyblade Wielders. It is your and Sora's responsibility to find and recruit these warriors. But Mickey, I can't express enough the power of these villains. We are going to need all the help we can get in a very small window of time. Mickey, I believe we have to release HIM."

Mickey took a step back in shock. His master was never one to exaggerate about the forces of Darkness and the dangers at hand. If it meant releasing a person of that order of being, then the situation was far worse than he could ever imagine. This, well no one knew exactly what it was, thing, was what mothers used when kids misbehaved, go brush your teeth, or The Prince of Darkness will get you! And his exploits were the stuff of legend... and nightmares.

"Are you sure this is our only option, Master? They say it took the Gods to bring him down, and even they couldn't kill him!"

"If people could kill immortals, it would ultimately defeat the purpose of immortality, wouldn't you agree?"

"I suppose so, but Master-"

"Mickey, with our current warriors of The Light, we cannot hope to combat with the forces of Darkness, and we don't have a lot of time or options. He must be released, or Sora will have no chance to grow to the first stage."

Mickey desperately thought of something, anything that would change his master's mind. "Master, how do we know if he will even help us? The legends say he was a fighter for good, but if he turned evil, odds are he's still evil then, right?"

Master Yen Sid smiled, "I appreciate your concerns, and yes, he could still be the demon the stories tell him to be, yet from some scrolls I found through a divination, it seems he was possessed by some unknown force. I believe after he was imprisoned, this being released him, seeing that the prison was unbreakable. If we released him, I believe that not only will he fight with us against the forces of Darkness, he will have taken measures to stop from being controlled again. There is another reason that we must gather such powerful allies: Master Xehanort has been reincarnated to his original form, with all his knowledge and double the power. Now there is good in this too, as now Terra is free from Xehanort's clutches but is probably still unconscious from the ordeal of splitting the heart. If we have Azrael teach Terra to control his darkness and use it, we'll have another Keyblade Master on our side. Mickey, Summon Sora and the others, we will need their Keyblades. Tonight, The Prince of Darkness will walk the worlds again!"
