I realized that my Christmas special (The Last chapter thingy) had many errors so I fixed it and added more to it! So if you already read it, there's more stuff! And sorry that this chapter is so short...^-^'
*I DON'T own ANY of the Kingdom Hearts characters, How to Train Your Dragon characters, or Stitch. I only own Katie.
Compared to the last world Katie was on, Berk was quite boring. Ever since she took on those Nobodies in the sky, the gang hasn't seen any Nobodies or Heartless. Now that they had Stitch with them, who always sat on Katie's shoulder like Pikachu does in Pokémon, the Vikings in the village thought Stitch was some messed-up Leprechaun. The chief of the village, Stoik the Vast, suddenly called a meeting at the Great Hall, and he wanted the Keybladers Wielders to attend.
"We're not even Vikings…why are we here?" Lea asked.
Katie shrugged, which was hard to do with a space experiment perched on one of her shoulders. "I dunno. We'll find out in a second." She noticed that Stoik was about to speak so she elbowed Lea in the ribs to make him shut up.
Stoik cleared his throat to get everyone's attention. After he got the Vikings to settle down he said, "We all know that the Dragon Tournament is very important to the village, but we can't do so if these odd creatures keep running around." He turned his attention to Riku. "How do we stop these creatures?" he asked.
"And what the heck are they?" someone in the crowd shouted.
"These creatures are known as Heartless and Nobodies. Heartless are black with yellow eyes and Nobodies are either white or grey and don't have any visible eyes. Both are very dangerous—"
"Even more dangerous than dragons?" Stoik asked.
Sora nodded. "Yeah. They steal people's hearts for a living. They are vulnerable to any type of weapon."
Stoik nodded to Sora and Riku, thanking them for an explanation. "Alright. If anyone sees these so-called Heartless and Nobodies, let me know immediately. If it's just a couple, take care of them yourself but if it's a whole hoard of them, come back to the village immediately to get reinforcements. We can't handle more deaths at the moment. Do I make myself clear?" The Vikings nodded. Stoik turned his attention to Katie. "Will it be safe for everyone if we still continue the Dragon Tournament?"
Katie rubbed the back of her head as she thought out loud, "Well…I think it still be alright to hold this Tournament but then again, everyone in your village will be attending and be a target for the Heartless and Nobodies. But since everyone has battle experience, I think it'd be fine. Plus, we know how to handle them quite well. We can keep an eye out for them."
"So then it's settled, we're still have the Dragon Tournament. Agree?" All the Vikings yelled 'aye!'. Stoik waved his hand. "You're all dismissed…except for the visitors." As soon everyone left, he turned to the Keyblade Wielders. "You sure you six can handle these things?"
Kairi nodded, "Yup!"
"Good. During the Tournament tomorrow, you may watch it but keep an eye out for those creatures. If you see one, let me know." Stoik told the group. "You may go now. I need to go and find my son and talk to him about the Tournament tomorrow."
After the group walked out of the Great Hall and down its steps, Repliku said, "I still can't believe that Hiccup is the finalist."
"It doesn't to me. He knows how handle dragons in a different way than everyone else." Sora said.
"I just don't know how he's going to slay one though." Lea added. "I mean, his best friend is one!"
Katie kept her mouth shut; she knew exactly what was going to happen. Stitch poked her face with one of his claws, "Why Ka-ti so sad?"
"Sad?" Katie repeated. "I'm not sad, just…tired."
"Well, I haven't seen you sleep since we were in Radiant Garden and you were unconscious then." Said Repliku.
"You're like a zombie!" Sora added.
"I'm not a zombie!" Katie retorted. "I'm going to the Cove, c'mon Stitch." She walked off before anyone said anything else. Half way down the forest, she felt like she was being followed. She took Stitch off her shoulder, "Can you and check to see if anyone's following us?" she asked the space experiment in a low voice.
Stitch nodded and grew out his extra pair of arms and crawled on the forest floor, away from Katie. Katie soon heard Stitch yell something in a different language. She rushed over to him to see him growling at a hooded figure.
Katie groaned, "Not again! I told you guys already, I'm not joining the Organization! So, leave me alone!" Her anger rose when the figure did nothing. She wielded her Keyblades. "Are you deaf? Get outta my sight!"
"You are coming with me…conscious or not…" the figure's voice was deeper than the figure she met in Kohona. With a grunt, a Guardian Heartless appeared from his back and the figure slowly crossed his arms.
Katie's eyes widened at the Guardian…the hooded figure was none other than Ansem; Seeker of Darkness. She turned her attention to Stitch, "Stitch! Go get the others! Tell them that the Seeker of Darkness is here!" Stitch was hesitant at first but he nodded and took off towards the village. 'V…I need your assistance…' she said mentally.
"I can see that…" V responded. Katie felt V take over her body. "I'll kick this guy's ass to the curb."
'Good, cuz of all the Xehanort's…he's my least favorite.' Katie told V. She heard him laugh then she charged towards the man that ruined Riku's life.
Cliffy! O3O When Riku finds out, oh man. He's gonna be miffed. Once again, I'm sorry that I made this chapter so short! When I replay Kingdom Hearts I or Dream Drop Distance to remember Ansem's fighting style, I'll make the next chapter! M'kay? Bless your face. And if you sneezed while reading this KH fanfic, then bless you. Peace off. BOOP!
