"Riku?"

I tried to wake up, but I was so tired. I just got done reading the wierdest thing I've ever read.

"Riku, wake up."

I was now awake for the most part. I was still tired but I could walk and talk. I looked over and Aqua was standing over me. with puffy eyes from crying so much.

"Riku, Mickey asked me to ask you if you had another dream."

I thought about it. I didn't. "No."

"Ok." she left.

I picked up the book and turned to page two.

Riku, so you have finished page one. Now it is time for you to learn about your father. It is not easy to tell you this but you need to know this to understand to rest of the book. Your father's name is Xehanort. I know this is shocking, but you can use this information to further your training. There is a backstory. of Xehanort, or soon to be Ansem. Before Xehanort became a heartless, he met a nice dane in Travers Town. She was beautiful, smart and independent. Her name was Maleficent. She was a nice woman back then, a lot younger and prettier, too. They were inseperable. They were always near each other. But times were changing, war was coming and Maleficent found out she was pregnant. She was worried, she knew her baby wouldn't survive the war. But back in her village, children could start thier own families at 16, so she searched the land for a woman for you, But you would be dead. So she wanted to find a beautiful baby girl and kill her so you could meet in the afterlife. She decided on Auora. A Prnicess. Now at this time, Xehanort was having troubles of his own, he was being more and more seduced by the darkness. He finally gave in and became one, but not an ordinary one. He became thier king. Maleficent was devastated of hearing this. As a heartless, Xehanort couldn't remember a thing. So she realized if she couldn't let him go, she'd join him. So she waited until you were born and left to join the heartless. She became thier leader from the other side. So they ruled together, but would never be together. After you parents both became members of the darkside. Mickey and I decided to put you in a place where you couldn't leave and you parents could never find you. They would try to turn you into a heartless. So that is the reason you aren't afraid to face the darkness head on, but you still hate it. So now you know the truth. You must use your power to be one with the darkness to conquer it. You must also confront your mother and father head on. tell them that you are thier son and maybe this war can end.

I slammed the book. It's not possible that my mortal enemies are my parents. Why did this happen. Why was I born. It is so you can completely rid the world of darkness. Who are you? Your new go to guy.

Mickey walked into the room.

"Riku, we're about to land."

"Mickey, was my father really Ansem?"

Mickey stood in his tracks. He face frozen from fear. "How... how do you know this?"

'I don't I was hoping you could tell me."

"Well, he's not. So stop thinking it."

"Ok, thanks." I knew he was lying.


We landed in Port Royal. Mickey, Aqua, and me walked to the docks. There was a gun fight so we avoided it. We walked in the the village and looked for the capital building. There was a woman called Elizabeth waiting for us.

"She sent us a hologram asking for help."

"So what's wrong?"

"We'll find out when we get there."

We asked around and found out that it was behinf the ramparts. So we walked there and the door was open, so we walked in.

"Hello?" yelled Mickey, "Is anyone home?"

"Up here." called a womans voice from up the stairs.

"I'll go" I said.

''Me too." said Aqua.

Mickey looked disappionted about being denied the role of going places first but gave us a signal to go. we walked upstairs and wlked into the master bedroom. The was a beautiful woman curled up in a ball crying on a bed.

"You're not Mickey. I can only talk to Mickey." she said.

"Elizabeth, I'm Mickey' apprentice. I can help."

"No, only Mickey."

"Can you at least tell me your problem?"

She hesitated. "My fiance has been kidnapped."

Aqua went over and sat beside her. "My boyfriend is dead."

Elizabeth sat up. "Maybe you two can help me."

"We can," sadi Aqua, "Do you know who took him?"

"Yes. It was Black Beard. The most cruel pirate in all the seven seas."

"He may be the cruelest, but he's not the best." I said. "Aqua, you stay here and comfort Elizabeth because you know the most about this, Mickey and I will look for him."

"OK, I'm fine with that."


I walked back down stairs and Mickey was back to his cheary self.

"What put you in such a good mood?" I asked.

"Oh nothing," he said, "it's just starting to feel like things are going back to normal. After the Terra's death I thought things would change forever, but now I feel good to be back on a mision."

"Well that's good to hear." Although nothing would be the same for me. I just found out a life-changing truth.

"So what's the mission?" he asked.

"Swan's husband was kidnapped by Black Beard."

"Oh c'mon. Just cause things are back to normal doesn't mean that it should be easy again."

"Well if we're going to succeed, we need a ship."

"And thats easy for a keyblade master."


Mickey and I walked down to the docks. There were a lot of ships. We decided we would steal a ship called the "S.S. Heaven". I liked the name. We sailed for a half an hour till we found another ship. I looked thourgh the spyglass and saw the name, "The Bearded Maiden". We found Black Beard.
