*I don't own ANY of the Kingdom Hearts characters...or How to Train Your Dragon characters, I only own Katie.
At first there was no sign of Sora, Lea, or Kairi. Repliku was getting impatient and started up his glider. "What's taking them so long?" he mumbled.
"I guess they're not done at that world just yet." said Katie. She too was getting a bit impatient, but she didn't show it.
"They might have already left that world, also." Added Riku, "Then again, Sora isn't the leaving-someone-behind kind of person."
Katie nodded in agreement, "I know that. They made like three games with Sora trying to find you."
"How-? Oh, yeah. Your world knows everything about us." said Riku.
"Creepy, huh? It's like Square Enix is stalking you guys or something!" Katie laughed, she felt confusion rise from Riku. "Square Enix is the company that made the Kingdom Hearts games." she explained. Riku nodded then looked over his shoulder when he heard the sound of gliders. "Hey, Sora, Lea, Kairi!" Katie greeted.
"It's about time. What took so long?" Repliku grumbled.
Sora made a nervous laugh, "Well..."
"We got a thanks feast from the princess of that world before we left. I couldn't avoid it." Lea said. "Mostly Sora's fault, he had thirds!"
"I was hungry!" Sora complained.
"But you didn't have to eat a whole cake, Sora!" Kairi joked.
Katie pouted, "You didn't save anything for us?"
Lea shook his head. "Nope, sorry guys. How was that world you guys went to?"
Repliku shrugged as he answered, "It was a ninja world. We took a test, then went into a Heartless-"
"And snakes! Don't forget snakes!" Katie interrupted.
"Infested forest. Katie saved a ninja team, took on a dangerous ninja by herself, and we found a Keyhole." Repliku continued.
"How bout you guys?" Katie asked.
"We went to a castle! We saved the prince and then the princess from the Nobodies and they thanked us with a feast. We found a Keyhole, too. The odd thing was that there weren't any Heartless on that world…" Kairi answered.
"That is weird…we only had Heartless on the world we visited." Riku said.
Repliku looked at him, "What about those Un—" He shut up when Riku glared at him.
Katie sputtered her lips to break the uncomfortable silence. "So, where to now?"
Lea pointed up ahead, "I see another world up ahead. Seems interesting." The group followed Lea to the world he pointed at. It was interesting. The world was shaped like an egg; the top of the world had pointy mountains and green meadows with tiny villages on them. The bottom of the world also had mountains but the center of the mountain glowed red and was surrounded by fog. An ocean with grey rocks separated the two halves. "Have any idea what it is, Kates?" Lea asked Katie.
Katie shook her head. "No, I don't recognize it. If we visit it, then I might figure it out." She pointed at the bottom half of the world. "That looks like a good place for an opening to the Dark Realm."
"And the Heartless and Nobodies." Sora added.
"So, we agree then?" Kairi asked the whole group, they all nodded. She turned to Katie. "Lead the way, Katie!" Katie nodded and went up to the world with everyone close behind. Her vision faded to white.
Katie and the gang found themselves in a pine-tree forest with steep hills of green with their armor gone. Kairi shivered and rubbed her arms. "Br! It's cold!" she said behind clattering teeth. You could see her breath.
"Pft! Cold?" Katie repeated. "This isn't anything! It feels like good old Iowa…except for all the pine-trees."
"Is Iowa your home world, Katie?" Sora asked.
"No, my home world is Earth. Iowa is the state I live in." Katie corrected. She looked around. "This place is familiar, I have to admit. Kinda looks like Scandinavia."
"Scandinavia?" Lea repeated.
Katie nodded. "Yeah, you know. Homeland of the Vikings." She stifled a laugh and joked, "Funny. I'm two-thirds Scandinavian and got some Viking blood in me somewhere. Looks like my inheritance might come in handy for once!"
"Can you make any connections besides that, Katie?" Riku asked.
Katie crossed her arms and tapped her foot. "Well…there's Brave, but that took place in ancient Scotland." She let out a frustrated groan, "If this is Twilight, I'm outta here...God, I hate Twilight." She thought for a couple more seconds. "Sorry, guys but that's all I got. I have no idea."
"That's alright, Katie. If you have more ideas, let us—" Repliku was interrupted by a scream. Everyone wielded their weapons.
"Repliku, do you sense any Heartless?" Riku asked.
Repliku nodded. "Yeah." He pointed to his right. "That way, but I sense some over there, too." He pointed ahead.
"I'll go up ahead." Said Katie.
"I'll go with you." Said Sora.
Lea joined them. "So will I."
Katie nodded and looked at Riku. "That okay with you? You got Kairi and Repliku."
Riku nodded and headed east. He said over his shoulder, "Be careful."
"You too!" Sora called after them. He turned to Katie and Lea, who nodded. "Follow me!" He ran north with Katie and Lea close behind to a cove.
Repliku was right; there were Heartless, Novashadows, which Katie thought was odd because they only appeared in Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days …but he forgot to mention the Nobodies: Dragoons. Backed into a corner was a boy who was around thirteen and had a mop of brown hair, and was extremely thin. He was wearing a green shirt that seemed to be made out of wool, and a brown fur vest. He had on long green pants, and brown fur boots. His eyes were forest green and were filled with fear. Behind him was a giant black winged creature that Sora and Lea almost mistaken for a Heartless but its eyes were green and reptilian rather than yellow and blank. "Oh, gods, this is not my day…" Katie heard the boy mumbled.
Before the boy got sliced by a Dragoon, Sora jumped in front of the complex Nobody and sliced it in half. "We'll handle this. Get somewhere safe!" he told the boy.
"But I can't leave Toothless! He's trapped in here!" said the boy.
'Toothless? That sounds very familiar…' Katie thought. She shot a Novashadow with a Firaga spell as she said, "Alright, just stay back!"
The boy's eyes widened. "Behind you!" he yelled while he pointed behind the trio. The trio turned around to find a Dragoon ready to slice them with its lance. Lea blocked the attack with his Keyblade while Sora jumped high into the air and came down on the Dragoon hard with the tip of Keyblade, the complex Nobody disappeared. Behind it came a hoard of Novashadows. Katie and Lea conjoined their attacks, Firaga and Fire Blast, to make a chaotic inferno that burned every Nobody and Heartless that was in its way. Sora sent a large Blizzaga spell after the inferno to cool down the surface and prevent the grass from burning. Katie threw Darkness' Master at an incoming Novashadow in Lea's blind spot. Lea gave her a thumbs-up in thanks and cut his fiery Keyblade through a Dragoon. Sora motion Katie to conjoin attacks with him, they linked arms. Void Gear burst with a dark aura with Sora's Kingdom Key glowed with light. Together, they jumped and spun in the air, making a streak of dark purple and white as they spun and sliced down every Nobody and Heartless in their way. They both landed side-by-side and threw their Keyblades simultaneously and the Keyblades twirled around each other as they took down the remaining Heartless and Nobodies. Void Gear and Kingdom Key returned to their hands and they dismissed their weapons.
"You alright?" Lea asked the boy.
"Y-yeah…what were those things? Who are you guys?" the boy asked quickly.
"Those things are Nobodies and Heartless. Heartless are creatures of darkness that steal other people's hearts and are black. Nobodies are the empty shell of a strong hearted person dies and don't have hearts, like Heartless , but they still have their memories and pretend to have hearts; they're white or grey." Katie explained.
"And I'm Sora. This is Lea and Katie." Sora added.
" 'Sup?" said Lea and Katie in unison.
The boy laughed nervously. "Ha-ha…yeah, 'sup? I'm Hiccup, stupid name I know, and this is Toothless." He looked at the trio carefully. "I bet you guys aren't from here, also. I've never seen you in the village. This is Berk, located solidly on the Meridian of Misery."
Katie opened her mouth and gawked at Hiccup. 'Berk?! That's How to Train Your Dragon! But, how's that possible?!'
Me: Berk! Haha! I love this movie so much! X3 And congrats for Anna Crosszeria for guessing the next world correctly!
Katie: That's because you made it obvious...
Me: It wasn't obvious! What was obvious was making the clue: dragons!
Katie: Whatevs...you broke the first rule of Kingdom Hearts: Always have the world related to Disney.
Me: So?! Don't care! Haters gonna hate!
Katie: (Facepalms then sighs) Bless your face. And if you sneezed while reading this Kingdom Hearts fanfic, then bless you.
Me: Peace off.
Both of us: BOOP!
