Authors Note: Surely this update-a-day process can't go on forever, can it? (Even though this is just a short one) Anyway, I'm still not getting many reviews, so please; if you've got anything to say, say it! Okay, I'll stop whining now.

Chapter 4: Our Objective

The World That Never Was – 5:30am

Ever since the Organization had been destroyed by Sora and his friends, The World That Never Was had faded from many peoples memories. Only a few remembered it's existence, and no-one lived there, as it was bordering on the edge of light and darkness, making it unsafe for a being of darkness, or light… except the Heartless.

The Heartless roamed freely in this world like it was a home to them. There was one place they had not laid their claws on, however.

The castle.

It had been reoccupied by an unknown group, whose hearts were filled with darkness, but refused to leave their bodies. They were vampires, but not the common type of vampires. They were organized, and were working towards something. Much like the Nobodies and Organization XIII, but much, much stronger.

"Zangyre, report."

"The Key-Bearer is still alive."

"Hmm… so the mission was a failure."

"No, not entirely. While he is still moving of his own will, he has been partially turned, and is now a vampire."

"A HALF-Vampire, Zangyre. Do not refer to him as one of us."

"My apologies. Anyway, my subordinate has a Ghoul as you requested."

"Who is it?"

"His brother."

"I see. He is very devoted to the mission. I will re-consider his request in that case."

"Are you sure? His methods do attract... unwanted attention."

"I realise that, but if he thinks he might get a promotion of sorts, that will encourage him to work harder."

"And if he does succeed?"

"I am a man of my word; I will give him that place."

"I trust you, master. You have always led us in the right direction. But what about Sora?"

"I want you to keep a close eye on him. He may be more useful to us than you think. In the meantime, send out a ransom note to all known vampire gangs, but no-one else. Until I work out what to do with him, I refuse to give him any breathing room. We don't want his powers to fully emerge. He knows not of his family's past, and we must make it so that neither he nor anyone else ever finds out."

"Yes. Master. Shall I proceed immediately?"

"Make it so."

Authors Note: It's a short one this time, but I will type a full length one (maybe two) in the weekend.
