Venitas was extremely curious of the stranger his Master put in the bedroom. So, he jumped up to the door handle, grabbed it as he fell, and kick his hind legs on the door. The bedroom door creaked open; he trotted into the forbidden bedroom and jumped up onto the bed. The stranger wasn't wearing a shirt and had white line wrapped around his torso that was stained red in one spot. Venitas mewed at him, the stranger even make an angry moan like his Master does when he meowed at her when she was taking naps. He poked the stranger with his front paw, still no reaction. Venitas purred and climbed onto the stranger's stomach, he laid down, ready to fall asleep until…

"VENITAS…!" Katie growled loudly, she grabbed her cat by scruff, "Stay away from Terra or no more Friskies for you!" She plopped him on the floor and kept on scolding him; not caring that the cat wouldn't understand a single word she's saying.

Terra slowly opened his eyes and suddenly heard angry shouts. He raised his head and cocked it to the side head from what he saw. Was he really watching a girl yelling at cat? What kind of world is this? A nut-house world? The girl stopped yelling and slowly got up. She reached for a metal baseball that was leaning against the wall and walked cautiously towards him. Terra got his Keyblade wielding hand ready; in case this girl had any ideas. The girl looked terrified as she walked closer; she suddenly relaxed when she looked at his eyes.

She was around seventeen and had shoulder lengthed hair that was an extremely light brown, almost blond, and faded to platinum blond in as her hair got closer to her overgrown bangs; the right side of her hair was more chopped up than the left. She had glasses on and her eyes were just like Ven's. She wore a dark purple shirt that had the left sleeve missing and the other sleeve stopped at her knuckles, the left sleeve was replaced by a crimson fingerless glove that started in the middle of her upper arm. A black belt with a Jack Skellington buckle was strapped tightly on her torso and wore ripped up dark navy blue pants that were stuffed into black combat boots with red laces.

"Phew!" she sighed happily as she dropped her 'weapon', "You're not Terranort! For second there, I thought I had to—"

"Terranort? What are you talking about?" Terra asked the strange girl as he sat up.

The girl's warm face turn stone cold, "Oh, no you don't! If ya get up too fast, that wound of yours will start bleeding again!" She handed Terra his shirt. "I was gonna fix it but I didn't have a chance to so…here."

Terra felt the girl's eyes watching him as he put his shirt back on. "You still haven't answered my question…um…" He tried to remember if this girl told him her name yet.

"Oh! I'm Katelynn Heart, but you can call me Katie!" Katie chirped, "Terranort is your name that your fans gave you after old fart Xehanort took over your body. So we took your name and Xehanort's name and mashed it together! Cool, huh?"

Terra's head was spinning with confusion. 'Fans? What fans? How does she know what Xehanort did to me?' Katie could sense Terra's confusion. "In this world, your adventures are told in a famous video game called: Kingdom Hearts," Katie explained, "Well…not just yours. There's Sora's, Riku's, Roxas', Aqua's, Ven's—"

"Ven?" Terra grabbed Katie's shoulders, "Where is he? Is he okay?"

"Y-yeah! He's at the Chamber of Awakening in Castle Oblivion! He's been asleep for about ten years, though cuz his heart got damaged from fighting Vanitas and destroying the χ-blade!" Katie stuttered, she sounded like she told him something she shouldn't have.

Terra realized he was digging his fingers into Katie's shoulders, he could almost feel her collarbone. He let go, worried he had hurt her, "I'm…I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you."

Katie rubbed her shoulders, "Its fine…you got a good grip there, Terra." She joked.

Terra narrowed his eyes. He didn't tell her his name, "You know my name?" he asked suspiciously.

Katie nodded, "Be right back!" She excitedly left the room and soon came back with a dark green square-shaped object; she placed it on Terra's lap. "This is called a PSP. It's a portable video gaming device." She realized Terra wouldn't know how to work it, so she snatched it back, turned it on, and sat next to Terra. She showed him cinematic cut scenes from Birth By Sleep.


Terra was shocked; this girl wasn't crazy at all. She was telling the truth.

"See? Told ya," Katie said as if she read his mind.

Terra was too bewildered to speak. 'This world knows about everything I've done…'

Katie jumped off the bed, "I betcha you can get up now." She walked out of the room while waving 'bye', "When ya do, I got a question to ask ya!" She hollered over shoulder.

Terra watched her leave. 'She kind of reminds me of Ven…if he had a rough side that is.' He laughed to himself. He slowly got up, winced a bit from the pain from his side. He walked out of the room. The first thing he noticed about Katie's house that it was HUGE. Big enough to hold a family of six and still have room for company. Katie was in the kitchen, making herself a bowl of cereal while a black and yellow cat crisscrossed around her legs waiting her to drop something.

She smiled when she saw Terra in the corner of her eye, "Glad you can walk, kupo!" She picked up her cat and made it wave at Terra, "This is Venitas. Venni for short."

Terra chuckled and patted the cat's head, "So was that question you wanted to ask me?"

"How the heck did you escape from Xehanort? Are you Terra's Nobody or Heartless or something?" Katie asked him.

Terra shook his head, "I'm the real Terra. To be honest with you, I don't remember how I got away from Xehanort."

Katie glared at him, "How do know what Nobodies and Heartless are? You only fought Unversed."

"I don't know what Heartless or Nobodies are. I've never heard of such words before so that means I'm not a Nobody OR a Heartless…whatever those things are." Terra explained.

Katie scratched her head in confusion, "I guess that makes sense…" then she smiled. "At least you broke yourself free from old-coot Xehanort!"

"Who you calling 'old-coot', girl?" said a rough, dark voice.

Terra froze. He knew that voice. He wielded his Keyblade, Earthshaker, and shoved Katie behind him to keep her safe from the newcomer, "Xehanort!"
