Following a long chapter, here's a short chapter to accompany it. Sometimes, though, small chapters like these can be rather interesting, to say in the least. Enjoy.


Braig stood at the top of a sandy building, overlooking the city of Agrabah. Silently, he opened a portal underneath his feet and appeared on another roof fifty meters away.

No sign of the kid. I thought he was here…

After scanning the area, he finally found the spiky brown-haired Keyblade wielder wandering the streets. Braig knew that he was here completing his Badge of Bravery exam of whatever it was Xehanort said. Braig didn't care too much about what the kid was doing anyways. He has a single mission and he was going to fulfill it.

Braig brought his Arrowguns up and aimed at the kid. This was no time to torment him, like he usually would; this mission wouldn't be any fun, but Braig never questioned an order from an employer and he certainly didn't question Xehanort. Braig sighed. Taking another deep breath, he concentrated.

A single arrow silently escaped, honing in on the target. Sora noticed the bullet at the last moment and deflected it with his Keyblade, but Braig was already one step ahead of him. Having already disappeared in a portal, he opened a smaller portal behind Sora and shot him in the back. Sora fell limp and passed out on the ground.

Stun bullets. As long as I didn't aim anywhere vital, he should be alive.

Braig examined Sora's wound. Minimal traces of blood exited the wound. He tested Sora's pulse; still alive, as he expected.

Braig exited the portal and proceeded to haul Sora's body onto his back. He grunted at the weight, but bared it on his skinny build nonetheless.

Looking around for any witnesses, Braig found an empty horizon; only buildings surrounding an empty street. He assumed most of the residents were either occupied by work or were shopping near the bazaar.

"Well, that was anti-climatic," Braig shrugged, "There's no helping it, I guess."

Besides, to Braig, the real reward comes after delivering him to Xehanort. He stepped into a portal, leaving the empty streets without a trace.


To avoid repeating what I said in Chapter 5 (considering I uploaded this chapter about half an hour after posting Chapter 5), I'll keep this short and simply refer you to Chapter 5's end-note regarding when I'll upload the next chapter.

Otherwise, I hope you enjoyed! Make sure to leave a review!
