Alf Meets Kingdom Hearts: Traverse Town
When we last left off, our heroes had just landed in a world known as Hollow Bation. Sora had taken the others there in hopes of getting them help. "So where are we headed?" Lynn asked. "I have some friends who live here." Sora replied. "They do a lot of research. If anyone knows about the Heartless and Organization XIII, it's them!" "Great…I guess." replied Brian "But where are they?" "They should be right about…here!" Everyone found themselves stand in front of an old house. "This is it! This is where the hold their meetings." explained Sora. "Looks like someone put of housekeeping for a bit too long!" Alf commented. "Remember, things aren't always as they seem..." Donald replied with a sly smile. Lynn, Brian Jake, and Alf looked at each other, shrugged, nodded, and eventually they headed inside.
"Well, well! If it ain't Sora!" they heard a voice exclaim as soon as they walked in. Everyone turned around to see an older, blond-haired man wearing a headband and chomping on a cigar. He wore aviator goggles, a white shirt, which was held up by a huge orange belt, blue jeans, large grey socks, and black shoes. "Hey Cid!" Sora greeted the man. "I see you brought some friends along!" said Cid. "There's Donald, Goofy, and dear sweet Kairi. But…who are these guys?" he asked, pointing to the four new strangers standing there. "Oh! These are the Tanner siblings, Lynn and Brian." replied Kairi. "Their parents were turned into Heartless! And they need our help!" "I bet that sucks!" Cid replied. "Poor kids!" "Yeah! Anyway, this other boy is Jake Ochmonek! His aunt and uncle are missing! Oh and this is Alf!" she added, pointing to the alien. "He comes from the planet Melmac!"
"Wow! A real alien!" Cid exclaimed. "And I thought these guys only existed on Star Trek! Maybe you could take me to your planet someday?" he added, turning to Alf. "I'm afraid that's impossible." Sora replied. "Why not?" "He can't take you to Melmac, because Melmac doesn't exist anymore!" "What happened to it?" "It…exploded in a nuclear holocaust!" Sora replied. "Yikes! That's not good!" "Yeah but he's been pretty OK with where he is now." "I see!" Cid replied, scratching his chin. "Hey Cid, are the others home?" Sora asked. "Yep! Follow me young fellers!" Cid turned and led the gang farther into building. Sora went after him, then Jake, while Kairi went next, followed by Lynn, Brian, and then finally, Alf, who took up the rear.
"Aren't you gonna tell me to hide?" Alf asked. "Um...they have a talking douck and a talking dog... You're probably no weirder then they are, so you're fine"
"Hey! Who are ya calling weird? !" protested Donald.
"Yo guys!" Cid called from the front. "We're here!" They stopped in front of a large door. They waited as Cid reached into his pocket and produced a keycard, with which he then proceeded to unlock the door by sliding it through a keycard lock in the door's side. He opened the door, and then he turned to the others and said, "Come on in!" They all stepped into the room and looked around. Lynn, Brian, Jake, and Alf were especially taken aback by the size of the room: it was huge! Bigger than any room they have seen in their entire lives. "This is even bigger than the National Melmacian Embassy Building!" exclaimed Alf. "And that place was gigantic enough already!"
Their thoughts were interrupted by a voice that shouted, "Yo! Sora! What's up? Long time no see!" They looked and saw a young girl about Jake and Sora's age. She had short black hair, with which she tied up with a headband. Her outfit consisted of a green, midriff revealing tube top sweater with a yellow scarf, and a pair of khaki shorts held up by a belt. She also wore long leggings and a pair of big orange shoes, orange gloves, and mesh sleeves. "Yuffie!" Sora waved at the girl. Yuffie ran up to Sora, and the two friends embraced. "We missed you! Where have you been?" "Back on my home on the islands of course! My mission of saving the world was over: or so I thought! But as it turns out, I once again had to play the part of the hero! Wanna meet the people I have to help out?" He pointed behind him. "Uh Sora, I believe I've already meet these guys! That's your girl, Kairi, and those guys are Donald, Goofy, and Cid!"
"No, no! Not them! These other guys!" "Who are they?" "Yuffie, meet siblings Lynn and Brian Tanner, and their friend, Jake Ochmonek. The Tanner kids' parents were turned into Heartless!" "That's terrible! But what about Jake's parents?" "He isn't living with his parents he's living with his aunt and uncle… At least till his father gets back from his trip." "Oh he went on vacation? That's wonderful! When does he get back?" "In 3 years, 8 months." replied Jake. "3 years, 8 months?" Yuffie repeated in confusion. "Yeah! Unless he gets out early for good behavior!" "Your father…is in prison?" "Uh-huh!" "Okaaaayyy…" "His aunt and uncle disappeared and we don't know what happened to them!" said Kairi. "Chances are they got turned into Heartless too!" "Oooh!" was all Yuffie could say. "What's going on?" they heard another voice ask. The voice seemed to have a gentle, kind tone to it.
"Aerith!" Sora replied, waving. The woman they saw was a little older than Yuffie, but still young; and she was very pretty to boot. She wore her hair in braids in the front, with a ponytail at the back. She wore a long pink dress with light pink lacing and outlines "We need to help these new guys!" said Yuffie, indicating the Tanner kids and Jake. "Their families were turned into Heartless!" "Oh, dear!" she then spotted Alf! "Oh, my g… Who…or what…is that?" "Uh…yeah Sora!" Yuffie agreed. "What is it?" "this isAlf! He comes from Melmac!" replied Sora. "So you guys have an alien with you?" exclaimed Yuffie. "He has an awfully big nose!" remarked Aerith. "Hey! Watch what you say about the schnozzle!" complained Alf. "Sorry Alf!" But he does have a very big nose!
"Hey! I heard your little conversation from my bedroom!" they heard yet another voice say. This time it belonged to a young man just a few years older than the 19 year old Lynn. "Leon, is that you?" Sora exclaimed. The man had shoulder length brown hair, and wore a black jacket, along with matching gloves and shoes, a white shirt underneath, and brown boots. "Yeah, it's me." Leon replied in a cool, calm voice. "Hey what's up with her?" he asked, pointing to Lynn. They all looked, and saw that Lynn was almost in a trance of sorts. "Hey Lynn!" shouted Sora, waving his hand in front of her face. "Yo! Are you still with us?" "He's so… so…han…hands…" "Yo! Earth to Lynn!" Yuffie shouted. "Huh… What… I…uh…ooh! Wha…? What happened?" "You took one look at Leon, and ended up in a daze!" replied Sora. "Yeah," put in Alf, "you looked like Marilyn Monroe; when she was in the hospital during her liposuction!" "Alf," Yuffie corrected, "Marilyn Monroe never had liposuction; at least I don't think she did."
"You amaze me! You really believe that there's only one Marilyn Monroe in the universe?" "Where is the other one?" asked Brian. "Melmac!" "Right! Not only do we have to deal with the Heartless, now we have to put up with a weirdo alien!" Leon commented. "Weirdo alien?" Alf retorted. 'Listen hear you girly haired hippie..." "Did you just call me a…" Before they could finish their argument, they heard a loud noise! "Guys! The Heartless are invading!" Yuffie shouted, summoning her throwing stars. Leon summoned his sword, which was called a Gunblade; Sora and Kairi summoned their Keyblades; and Donald and Goofy brought out their staff and shield, respectably. The others watched them fight. Lynn was cheering the heroes on, when suddenly she heard a noise. She turned and gasped to see a Heartless flying right at her! "Look out" Sora shouted; but it was too late. Next thing Lynn knew, her world had gone black!
