UltimaShishigawa: Hey everyone! I have an announcement for the readers of this fic. Once this fic is complete I will be putting all the future Kingdom Hearts rewrite fics I'm making into a set. Basically like the 1.5 and 2.5 remixes. Also, I'm trying to figure out a Keyblade design for the OC's Keyblade once he acquires it. Tell me any ideas ya got please. I'd be greatly thankful. Anyway, enjoy the chapter.
Disclaimer: UltimaShigawa doesn't own Kingdom Hearts, or it's characters.
Chapter 6: Neverland
Neo was seated in a chair in the Captain's cabin of Captain Hook's ship while watching over the still comatose Kairi. He looked at the sleeping girl as memories of the times he, Kairi, Sora and Riku spent playing on the islands together filled his mind.
"I promise that I'll wake you up, Kairi. Then I'll find a way to restore the islands and we can go back." said Neo as he grasped her hand. "I'll do whatever it takes to fix things." He then smiled.
"I remember the night we met. It was during the meteor shower. Sora, Riku and I were heading back home when I looked toward the shore and saw you laying there. I rushed over to see if you were okay. You looked at me and smiled one of the most beautiful smiles I'd ever seen. I carried you all the way home. Heh, my mother was shocked when I came back carrying a mysterious girl she'd never seen before." said Neo. He then looked up at the ceiling of the cabin.
"Ya know, it's only because you can't hear me that I...have the courage to say this, but..." said Neo before he looked at Kairi. "...I like you, Kairi. As in, more than just a friend." He then blushed.
"I hope you return my feelings, but even if you don't, then I hope we can still be friends." said Neo. He then noticed the faintest of smiles on Kairi's lips causing his blush to darken.
"Um, anyway, I'd b-better make sure everythings o-okay. I'll be right back, Kairi." said Neo as he let go of the red head's hand and walked to the door. He then proceeded to open the door before looking back at Kairi, smiling and walking out.
-Main Deck-
Neo walked out of the Captain's cabin and closed the door before sighing.
"I wonder if she could hear me?" Neo asked himself before looking toward some Heartless (Pirates.) "What are you staring at? Make sure that the prisoner doesn't escape!" The Heartless seemed to give Neo a sort of salute before heading deeper into the ship.
"So..." said a voice causing Neo to whip around and see Captain Hook. "...are ye enjoying the ability to command the Heartless?" Neo glared at Hook.
"I don't care if I can command the Heartless, or not. It only makes it easier to find the one that took Kairi's heart." said Neo. Hook chuckled.
"Heh, I'd give up if I were ye. The lass's heart is long gone by now. Lost in the darkest abyss possibly. Good riddance, I say." said Hook. Neo's glare intensified as he summoned his Soul Eater sword. He then hit Hook with the blunt end and sent the captain flying over the side of the boat and into the sea.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!" screamed Hook as he fell to the water below. When he heard the splash, Neo walked over and looked at the sea to see Hook resurface.
"Next time you speak about Kairi like that I won't use the blunt end." said Neo. "Now get back on board!" Hook growled in irritation before his eyes widened in panic as he heard an all too familiar ticking sound. He then looked back to see a green crocodile coming toward him.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!" screamed Hook as he flew up ten feet in the air before landing right into the arms of his first mate, Mr. Smee. "SMEE, SAVE ME! IT'S HIM! THE CROC WHO TOOK ME HAND! HE'S COME BACK FOR ME OTHER HAND!" Neo looked toward the scene before shaking his head.
"And he is the captain of this ship? Pathetic..." said Neo before he walked back to the Captain's cabin.
-Later-
Neo was sitting in the chair with his eyes closed while lightly snoring when he was awakened by the sound of something crashing into the ship.
"What was that?!" asked Neo as he rushed out of the Captain's cabin.
-Deck-
Neo rushed out of the Captain's cabin and towards the front of the ship to see Hook and several Heartless (Pirates, Air Pirates and Pirate ships) surrounding Sora and Riku.
"What are they doing here?" Neo asked himself before making his presence known. "It's been awhile, Sora. Riku." Said Keyblade wielders looked toward Neo.
"Neo, what are you doing here?" asked Riku. "And where are Donald and Goofy?" Neo glared at the two.
"Instead of worrying about them, you should be worrying about Kairi." said Neo. Sora spoke up.
"You mean she is here?" asked Sora. Neo nodded his head.
"Yeah, because I spent my time trying to find her. Not showing off and making friends, unlike you two." said Neo.
"All we've been doing is looking for you two!" said Sora. Neo shook his head as his glare intensified.
"If that's the case, then in Traverse Town you should've allowed me to come with you instead of arguing with Donald!" said Neo. "Instead, you four were laughing and having a great time with Yuffie and the others without a care in the world!" Riku gave Neo a surprised and questioning look.
"You know Yuffie and the others?" asked Riku.
"I met her in Traverse Town when I woke up." said Neo. "But that's beside the point. I found Kairi and I'll find her heart on my own. So just leave us alone." With that said, Neo turned around and started walking toward the Captain's cabin. Sora, however, ran toward Neo.
"NEO, WAIT!" shouted Sora. Neo stopped and quickly turned around before holding up his right hand toward Sora. Suddenly, a dark version of Sora and Riku appeared causing Sora to stop. The dark version of Sora and Riku were all black with yellow glowing eyes and were wielding a black version of their Keyblades.
"What?!" said Riku.
"This is your last warning. Stay away from me and Kairi, or I won't hesitate to attack." said Neo. Suddenly, a hole opened under Sora and Riku's feet before the two Keyblade wielders fell through. The holes then closed up as the dark Sora and Riku disappeared. Neo then looked at Hook.
"Keep those two away from Kairi until we hit land!" Neo ordered before going back to the Captain's cabin. Hook growled in irritation.
"Who does that brat think he is? Giving orders on me ship!" said Hook before his eyes widened as he heard the ticking. "Oh, not again!"
-Captain's cabin-
Neo walked back into the Captain's cabin and looked toward the bed only to find that Kairi was gone. "Kairi!" said Neo as he looked around the room for the girl.
"I moved her to the room where we're holding Wendy." said a voice causing Neo to look toward the door to see Mr. Smee.
"Why did you move her?" asked Neo.
"W-well, you said to keep those two other boys away from her until we hit land so I came and moved her." said Smee. Neo sighed as he walked past Smee.
"Next time, warn me." said Neo before he walked out.
-Wendy's room-
Neo arrived at the door to Wendy's room before opening the door and walking in to find Wendy sitting next to Kairi, who had been leaned against the wall in a sitting position. Wendy looked up at Neo before getting a panicked look in her eyes. Neo held his hands up.
"Relax, I'm not here for you. Just my friend there." said Neo. After saying this, he noticed Wendy visibly relax.
"Oh, I do hope Peter gets here soon." said Wendy. Neo gave her a questioning look.
"Peter? Peter who?" asked Neo.
"Peter Pan. He's a dear friend of mine." said Wendy. Neo nodded his head as he walked over to the comatose Kairi before kneeling down and pulling her into his arms. He then stood and carried her bridal style to the door.
"She is important to you, isn't she?" asked Wendy. Neo stopped at the door before looking over his shoulder at Wendy.
"More than you'll ever know." said Neo. He then turned back toward the door.
"Get going." said Neo causing Wendy to give him a questioning look.
"What do you mean?" asked Wendy. Neo then looked back at Wendy with a smile.
"I mean that I'm giving you a chance to escape. There are no Heartless in the halls right now and Hook is too preoccupied with a croc to notice." said Neo. Wendy smiled at Neo before rushing toward the door. When she reached the door, she stopped and looked at Neo.
"Thank you." said Wendy. Neo shook his head.
"Don't thank me, just go." said Neo. Wendy nodded her head before running out the door. Neo then proceeded back to the Captain's cabin.
-Captain's cabin-
Neo arrived back in the Captain's cabin with the comatose Kairi in his arms. "How much longer do I have to wait before I can find your heart, Kairi?" Neo asked himself.
"NEO!" shouted a familiar voice causing Neo to turn toward the door to see Sora, Riku, Donald and Goofy. Neo's eyes widened for a split second before a dark corridor appeared.
"WAIT!" shouted Riku. Neo backed into the dark corridor as the dark Sora and Riku appeared.
"Take care of them." ordered Neo before he and Kairi disappeared into the dark corridor.
-Hollow Bastion: Grand Hall-
A dark corridor opened in the Grand Hall before Neo stepped out of it with Kairi in his arms. He then carefully laid the girl on the ground before looking at the large Heartless insignia that was glowing with multiple dark colors.
"You're back." said a voice. Neo turned toward the source of the voice to find Maleficent.
"I can only presume that the Keybearers are on Hook's ship." said Maleficent. Neo nodded his head.
"I have no doubt that they'll find their way here." said Neo. "They're persistent, I'll give 'em that." Maleficent smiled an evil smile before tapping her cane on the ground. Suddenly, a green aura surrounded Neo. When it faded, Neo looked at the evil fairy.
"What did you just do to me?" asked Neo. Maleficent chuckled.
"Heheh, why I simply gave you more power as a gift for being so loyal." said Maleficent. Neo glared at the evil fairy.
"Let's get one thing straight. I'm not following your orders because I want to. I'm simply doing so until I can find Kairi's heart. Got it?" said Neo. Maleficent chuckled.
"But of course." said Maleficent. However, they were interrupted when a loud roar reverberated throughout the castle.
"It seems that beast followed his dear princess all the way here. Even though his world fell to darkness, his heart's want of finding her allowed him to find his way here." said Maleficent. She then turned to Neo.
"Neo, if you would." said Maleficent.
"Tch, fine. I'm on it. I need his precise princess anyway if I'm gonna find Kairi's heart." said Neo before he walked out of the Grand Hall. Maleficent's evil smile only grew as she looked upon the Seven Princess of Heart (Snow White, Belle, Aurora, Jasmine, Alice, Cinderella and Kairi.)
"Heheheh. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Maleficent cackled.
