Disclaimer: I do not own any Spyro and Kingdom Hearts characters. I don't own Neo, Pikachu, or Stitch. I do own Matt, my OC.

Like I mentioned, this story will have some KH elements involved, but they'll be mixed with Spyro themes as well. Also, this is where the story really begins. Enjoy!

Matt was laying down on a cot in the Gummi Ship, snoozing away. He needed it, because he and his friends, Stitch and Pikachu, had done a lot of work the past couple of weeks.

They had visited so many worlds and battled the Heartless, the Organization, and any other baddies they had run into.

While he slept, he had another dream about his home. It was as if he'd never left:

Matt was shooting hoops in his backyard. His dad had put up a net some time ago. Since they just lived in the country, it was very quiet. The sun was setting.

Matt loved to just run around the court, shooting from every angle, not caring if he made it or missed. It was one of the places where he truly felt at peace.

Looking in the distance, he saw his new friends. A blue dog-like creature and a yellow mouse with stripes and a lightning shaped tail. Stitch and Pikachu. He waved at them, and they waved back.

Suddenly, after Matt another basket, he heard something. It was faint, but it sounded like a voice...calling out to him. He couldn't make it out, but instinctively Matt wanted to find out what the voice was.

He started walking, then saw something in the distance. Two small figures were lying on the ground. Were they hurt? What were they doing there?

Were these things what was calling Matt? They were nothing Matt had seen here before. As he was about to investigate...

"Matt!"

"Wake up! Now!"

Matt shot awake, nearly sending Stitch and Pikachu flying from his stomach. "What? What?! I'm up! Is there Heartless?"

"Naga," Stitch said. "Wesa got a message!"

"From Neo!" Pikachu added. "It sounds important."

Matt didn't need telling twice. The trio rushed over to the screen and saw the One looking down on them.

"I wasn't interrupting anything, was I?" he asked.

"Well, I was having a nice nap...," Matt said. "But what's up, Neo?"

"Well, the King wanted me to let you know that there's a new world for you guys to investigate."

"What else is new?"

"Matt, get serious. This world is different."

"How? It's just another world that the Organization wants to take over."

"That's the thing. This one is extremely fragile."

"Huh?" Stitch asked.

"What do you mean by fragile?" Pikachu asked, scratching his head.

"Well, to put it simply, this world was almost destroyed...and the Heartless had little or nothing to do with it."

The trio gasped.

"Really?" Matt asked. "How is that possible?"

"The King doesn't know much, but he does know that there was a powerful evil that existed in this world. Luckily, there must have been another power strong enough to defeat that evil."

"That's good," Matt replied. "So what you're trying to say is...that we have to be extra careful down there."

"All I'm saying is that the Organization recently found out about it, and they see this as a perfect oppurtunity to capture hearts. The King considers this a high priority that you three stop the Organization and seal the world with the Keyblade before they can do any more damage.. Otherwise, that world might fall apart as we know it."

Matt, Stitch, and Pikachu nodded in reply. "You can count on us," Matt firmly stated.

"Good luck...all of you." With a flash, Neo ended the transmission.

"Man...," Matt said. "Sounds like we got our work cut out for us."

"What wesa waiting for?" Stitch asked. He and Pikachu got back in their seats.

"Right," Matt replied. "I think I see the world Neo was talking about dead ahead. Let's land..."

The trio set their ship down on the outskirts of what looked like a giant city. It reminded Matt a bit of a medival era type of make to it. He along with Stitch and Pikachu looked and saw several outlines of dragons carved into the walls of the city.

"Wonder if we have to fight a dragon here?" Matt asked sarcastically.

"Stitch hope not." Pikachu also expressed his concern.

"Well, if a dragon does come after us," Matt assured his friends. "I don't see how it could beat us."

Stitch and Pikachu smiled at Matt's comment.

Matt looked around the outskirts and saw a large valley surrounding the city, with a tall mountain off in the distance. Something about the mountain sent a chill down Matt's spine.

As the trio was about to enter the city, a figure with warrior's clothing and his face covered jumped out in front of them...with an arrow pointed straight for them.

"Hey! What are you doing?" Matt asked. He summoned his Keyblade in defense.

"Back off!" Pikachu yelled. Stitch growled. Both summoned their weapons as well.

"Tell me, strangers...why have you come here?" the figure asked, still with his bow aimed.

"Why should we tell you?" Matt knew this guy was hostile, but he couldn't sense any Heartless within. "We're not looking for trouble. We..."

"Very well," the figure put his bow away and lowered his hood. Matt and his friends gasped. The figure had the head of a cheetah!

"Now...I ask again...why have you strangers come to this city? I have never seen any of your kind before." the cheetah man asked.

Stitch and Pikachu nodded at Matt. He could tell they thought this person was trustworthy.

"My name is Matt, and these are Stitch and Pikachu. We're are here on a mission," Matt said. "We believe a powerful darkness called the Heartless are coming to attack this place."

"The Heartless...so that's what they're called..." The cheetah looked off into space.

"What? You've seen them before?" Pikachu asked.

"Yes, there have been recently attacks on this city by a dark force that none of us have seen before. We can fight it, but they keep coming back..."

The cheetah was about to say more, but a glowing spark came rushing up to him. At closer look, Matt saw it was a golden dragonfly...who could talk...

"Hunter! Those thingys are attacking again! C'mon man! We got to go!"

"Alright, Sparx. I'm right behind you." He turned to Matt and his friends. "I know this may sound strange..."

"Don't worry about it," Matt said. "If the Heartless are here, then they have to deal with us."

"Eh!" Stitch yelled.

"We know what we're doing!" Pikachu added.

"Good, but we must hurry!" With that, Matt and his friends followed Hunter and Sparx towards the ensuing fight.

Yes, it's true, the Heartless have invaded! I thought this would be a good place to end this chapter. More will be revealed soon...

Is this story worthwhile? Tell me what you think, good or bad.

Peace out!
