Chapter 4: Agrabah

A dark corridor opened before Neo stepped through followed by Maleficent. "What are you two doing here?" asked a voice causing Maleficent, and Neo to turn, and see Jafar.

"We're here to see if you have captured the seventh Princess of Heart." said Maleficent. Jafar scoffed.

"If I had then I would've brought her to Hollow Bastion." said Jafar. "But not to worry. I have the Heartless searching every corner of the city for Princess Jasmine." Maleficent raised an eyebrow in question.

"And the Keyhole?" asked Maleficent.

"The Heartless are also searching for the Keyhole as well. It won't be long before they find both the Keyhole, and Princess Jasmine." said Jafar. Suddenly, a red parrot (Iago) landed on Jafar's left shoulder.

"Jafar, she's gone! Jasmines disappeared!" said Iago. Jafar growled in anger.

"There are many holes in this city for rats to hide in. I'll have the Heartless expand their search." said Jafar.

"Be careful, Jafar. The Heartless prey on the darkness in people's hearts." said Maleficent. Jafar laughed.

"Hahaha. Your concern is appreciated, but hardly necessary." said Jafar. As he walked away, Maleficent turned to Neo.

"I need you to stay here, and locate the princess for me." said Maleficent. Neo nodded his head in understanding. Maleficent then tapped her staff on the ground before a dark corridor opened. Maleficent then stepped through the dark corridor before it disappeared. Neo then looked around.

"Guess it's time to start looking." said Neo. An image of Kairi standing on the shore of Destiny Islands flashed through Neo's mind.

"Soon Kairi, soon." said Neo before he walked off.

-Later-

Neo had searched all over the city for the princess, but had no luck finding her. "Where is she?" asked Neo as he sat down on a crate. He then scratched his head.

"This would've been easier if Maleficent had taught me some way to sense when I'm close to the princess." said Neo. He then noticed that he was sitting next to an apple stand. He looked to his left, and then to his right before snatching an apple off the stand.

"Well, I am starving, and it won't hurt to have one apple." Neo reasoned before he opened his mouth to take a bite. However, a tug on his pants caused Neo to look down, and see a monkey (Abu) looking up at him, and holding it's hands out. Neo looked left, and then right before looking back at the monkey.

"You want something?" asked Neo. Abu pointed at the apple. Neo then looked at the apple before getting a dejected look on his face. He then, reluctantly, handed Abu the apple. The little monkey gave Neo a salute (which Neo guessed was his way of saying "Thanks") before running off. Neo sighed.

"Oh well. I wasn't that hungry anyway." Neo said as he cried anime tears while his stomach growled. He then saw what appeared to be a pot (Pot Spider Heartless) with four spider-like legs sticking out of it coming running by. He then saw the Heartless insignia on the back.

"A Heartless?" asked Neo.

"HELP!" shouted a muffled voice causing Neo's eyebrows to disappear into his hair.

"Did the Heartless just...talk?" asked a disbelieving Neo. The Heartless then took off. Neo, who quickly realized that someone was inside the pot, ran after it.

-Cave of Wonders-

Neo arrived at the Cave of Wonders. "WHOA!" exclaimed Neo as he looked at the tiger head entrance. He then made his way inside.

-Cave of Wonders: Lamp Chamber-

After making his way through the Cave of Wonders, Neo made it to the Lamp Chamber to find a large hole in the ground. He looked down to see Sora, Riku, Donald, and Goofy fighting Jafar (Genie form), and chasing after Iago who had a black magic lamp which Neo guessed was Jafar's lamp. He then looked straight ahead to see Princess Jasmine, unconscious, laying on what was left of the ground on the other side of the room. He also saw the Keyhole. Neo then held his hand out causing a dark corridor to open before stepping through it. Another dark corridor opened on the other side of the room before Neo stepped out of it.

"So this is the Keyhole." said Neo as he gazed at the Keyhole. He then looked at Jasmine before picking her up bridal style. Another dark corridor opened before Neo stepped into it.

-Hollow Bastion: Castle Chapel-

A dark corridor opened before Neo stepped out carrying Jasmine. He then laid the princess down on the ground carefully before looking up to see Maleficent.

"Well done. We now have all seven Princesses of Heart." said Maleficent. Neo then opened a corridor of darkness.

"Where are you going?" asked Maleficent. Neo looked toward Maleficent.

"To find my friends." said Neo.

"Your friends, Sora, and Riku, have probably already replaced you with their new companions." said Maleficent. Neo turned away from the evil witch.

"I don't believe they would ever do that." said Neo before he walked through the dark corridor.

-Traverse Town: First District-

A dark corridor opened before Neo stepped out. As the corridor disappeared Neo walked toward the accessory shop.

"I guess if I'm gonna find Sora, and Riku then I'll have to talk to Yuffie." Neo said as he walked around the accessory shop. As he rounded the shop he bumped into someone causing him to fall on his butt.

"Ow..." Neo groaned as he stood up before looking down to see Yuffie. "Yuffie?" The ninja girl rubbed her head before looking up to see Neo.

"NEO!" Yuffie shouted happily as she jumped to her feet, and proceeded to tackle the poor boy to the ground. Yuffie sat on Neo's stomach while the poor boy saw stars floating around his head.

"So what brings you back to Traverse Town?" asked Yuffie. Neo then shook his head to regain his senses before answering.

"I'm looking for Sora, and Riku. Have you seen them recently?" asked Neo. Yuffie tapped her chin with her index finger as she thought.

"Yeah, they actually arrived here earlier, and went to the Third District." said Yuffie. Neo's eyes widened.

"REALLY?!" exclaimed Neo. Yuffie nodded her head.

"Yeah. They came back here looking for you." said Yuffie. Neo then looked at his stomach where Yuffie was currently perched, and then back at the girl herself.

"Mind getting off me?" asked Neo. Yuffie thought for a moment.

"Actually, I'm quite content right here." said Yuffie causing a tick mark to appear on Neo's forehead.

"I'm serious, Yuffie." said Neo. Yuffie then sighed before, reluctantly, getting up allowing Neo to stand up.

"Thanks Yuffie, I owe you." said Neo before turned, and started running toward the Third District.

"That's okay! You can just take me out on a date sometime!" Yuffie said causing Neo to faceplant. Neo then stood back up with bright red cheeks before looking back at a grinning Yuffie. Neo then shook his head before rushing to the Third District.

-Meanwhile-

Sora, Riku, Donald, and Goofy were in the Third District. "I wonder where Neo is." said Sora.

"Aw, don't worry, Sora. I'm sure we'll find him soon." said Goofy.

"Goofy's right, Sora. Neo can handle anything thrown at him." said Riku. Sora nodded his head in understanding as he smiled.

"You're right! Who knows, maybe we'll run into him, the King, and Kairi, too!" said Sora. The four, however, failed to notice the Heartless (Shadow) that appeared behind them. As the Heartless jumped at Sora something sped past the four causing them to turn, and see a Heartless disappear, and Neo standing with his back to them wielding the Soul Eater sword. Neo then turned toward them, and grinned.

"Hey guys! I've been looking all over for you!" said Neo. All four were stunned to see Neo before Sora walked over to him. He then grabbed Neo's cheeks, and pulled them (like he did to Riku in the manga).

"OW! Hey, cut it out!" said Neo as he removed Sora's hands from his face.

"It is you, Neo!" said a happy Sora.

"Of course it's me. Why wouldn't I be me?" said Neo. Riku then looked around.

"Where's Kairi?" asked Riku. Neo's eyes widened slightly which went unnoticed by everyone except Riku.

"I...I don't know." Neo lied. "But don't worry. I'm sure she made it off the island, too." He then looked up at the sky.

"Can you believe it? We're finally free!" said Neo. "But don't worry. You guys just leave everything to me." Suddenly, Neo heard the sound of something disappearing, and turned around to see Sora wielding his Keyblade (Kingdom Key).

"I'm sorry. Leave it to who?" Sora said with a confident smile.

"How-?" asked Neo. Goofy spoke up.

"Sora's the Keyblade Master." said Goofy.

"So this is a Keyblade?" asked Neo as he held the Keyblade in his right hand. Sora's eyes widened in surprise as he looked at his empty right hand.

"H-Hey, give it back!" said Sora. Neo chuckled.

"Catch." said Neo as the Keyblade disappeared before reappearing in Sora's right hand.

"How did he do that?" asked/whispered Goofy. Donald shrugged his shoulders.

"I don't know. Even Sora has trouble doing that." said/whispered Donald.

"You gotta come with us, Neo! We got this awesome rocket!" said Sora.

"He can't come!" said Donald causing Sora to glare at him.

"Come on, Donald!" Sora begged. "He's my friend."

"I don't care who he is! He can't come!" said Donald.

"Why not?" asked Riku. Goofy then spoke up.

"Hey fellas! He's gone!" said Goofy causing the others to whip around to see that Neo was indeed gone.

"Neo..." said a saddened Sora.

-Later-

Neo was watching Sora, Riku, Donald, and Goofy talking with Leon, Yuffie, Aerith, and Cid in Cid's house in the Third District. Suddenly, a hand grabbed Neo's shoulder causing him to look, and see Maleficent before looking back at Cid's house.

"You see? It's just as I said. They simply replaced you with some new companions while you tried to find them, and Kairi." said Maleficent.

"I...never thought...they would do that." said Neo.

"Then think no more of them, and come with me. I'll help you find Kairi's heart." said Maleficent as a dark corridor opened. Neo, believing that they no longer cared about him, and Kairi, then walked through the corridor of darkness with Maleficent in tow.

-Next Chapter: Monstro-

Xeno Shishigawa: Well, that's it for chapter 4, and I hope you liked it. By the way, I was wondering if you all wanted me to make a remake of these Kingdom Hearts stories once I finish my Kingdom Hearts rewrite. It would be similar to the Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5, and 2.5 remixes, and would contain three stories per volume. If you do then let me know in a review, or through a private message. Anyway, read, review, comment, and don't flame! Peace, I'm out!
