Chapter 6: Back to Traverse Town
What's up people? It's me, sakuraphoenix, and I'm back with a brand new chapter of Journey of Hearts! I know we've all been waiting for this chapter (especially for those Riku fans out there), so I'll cut to the chase
Disclaimer: I do not own Kingdom Hearts. I also do not own Rita, Reina, or Yukie. They belong to D.J. Scales.
Enjoy!
The ride back to Traverse Town was anything but eventful. When we landed, I suddenly saw Leon and that woman in pink, whom I learned from our travels was named Aerith. Where were they going? When I blinked, they disappeared.
"So, where do we go?" asked Sora
"We could check out the hotel Leon and his crew stay at." Said Luz
"Sounds like a… huh?" I wondered
I saw a blur of blue in the distance. No, it couldn't be.
"Um, sounds like a plan. Go on ahead, I'll catch up." I said
I ran off in the direction where I saw the blur of blue. From a distance I saw the girl and a bunch of Heartless! I was about to attack when I saw her use Magic Hour. I know that spell! There's only one person I know who can perform that spell.
"Aqua! Aqua!" I exclaimed
She just ran off as I was calling her name. Did Aqua forget me? No, that can't be the case. Then again, why wouldn't she be in the Land of Departure? That's when I noticed Sora and the others.
"Sora! Lumen! Luz! Donald! Goofy!" I exclaimed
"Hikaru! Why'd you run off like that?" asked Luz
"Thought I saw an old friend. Lost her though." I said
"Well, you can help us out with this. We got word from Yuffie that Leon could be here." Said Lumen
"Looks like it's blocked off. Don't worry, I can fix that." I said as I began cracking my knuckles
I charged up a ball of light, and threw it at the bars, causing the blocked bars to collapse.
"Too easy." I said
"Alright, let's go!" exclaimed Sora
We went through the cavern, and boy was it dark! We all eventually saw a light ahead, and found Leon and Aerith.
"So, you found the Keyhole." Said Leon
"Yeah." Said Sora
"The Keyblade locked it automatically." Said Lumen
"Good." Said Aerith
"Every world among the stars has a Keyhole. And each one leads to the heart of that world. There must be one in this town as well." Said Leon
"What do you mean?" asked Luz
"It was in Ansem's report." Said Aerith
"The Heartless can enter through the Keyhole and do something to the world's core." Said Leon
"What happens to the world?" I asked
Believe me; I'm new to this stuff too. I just knew that Heartless plus Keyhole equals bad news.
"In the end, it disappears." Said Aerith
"WHAT?-!" Donald, Goofy, Sora, Lumen, Luz, and I exclaimed in unison
"That's why your keys are so important." Said Leon
"Please lock the Keyholes. You're the only ones who can." Said Aerith
"I don't know…" Sora trailed off
"Seeing other worlds would probably serve you well." Said Leon
"Yeah!" exclaimed Donald
"We gotta find your friends! And King Mickey!" exclaimed Goofy
I just realized something. He said 'King Mickey' both here and before we landed in the Deep Jungle. Does this mean that the Mickey I know is the same Mickey they're looking for?
"I guess you're right…" Luz trailed off
"Okay!" exclaimed Lumen
"Anyhow, business. So Leon, these Gummi blocks that we found seem to be different from the others we've found. Do you know what it's for?" I asked
"Ask Cid. He should know." Said Aerith
"You mean gramps? Alright." Said Lumen
"Wait you six, take this with you." Said Leon
He gave us some kind of stone. Wonder what it's for.
"This stone holds some mysterious power. I've been carrying it for luck. I want you to hold onto it." Said Leon
"How do you use it?" asked Luz
I would take his pause of silence as 'I don't know'. Some warrior he is. We made our way back to Cid's place, and when we showed him the Gummi blocks, he was really looking at them closely.
"What've you got there?" asked Cid
When he got a closer look, he recognized them.
"Hey! Well, if it ain't a Gummi block." Said Cid
"Yep." Said Donald
"What's this one for?" asked Goofy
"You're kiddin' me! You're flying a Gummi ship and you know nothin' about navigation Gummis? Bunch of pinheads. Interspace ain't no playground." Said Cid
"So there's a lot we don't know. So what?-!" I exclaimed
"We have to use the Gummi ship to go to other worlds." Said Sora
"We don't have another choice." Said Lumen
"There are the Lanes Between, but only a full-fledged Keyblade Master, or someone who can wield the Keyblade and know what he or she is doing can use them. Plus, there's the added bonus of Keyblade Armor. But that's a story for another day." I said
"Whoa, easy. I didn't know. No hard feelings, alright? Well, I guess I could lend y'all a hand, then." Said Cid
"Thanks." Said Luz
"Basically, with navigation Gummis, you can go to new places. You want one for your ship, right?" asked Cid
We all nodded.
"I'll install it for you. But I got this thing I gotta go deliver first." Said Cid
"What do you need to deliver?" asked Sora
"Just this book. It's real old. When the guy brought it in, it was practically falling apart. Too beat up to restore it to the way it was. But overall, I did a decent job puttin' it back together. Anyway, you mind deliverin' it for me?" asked Cid
"Sure no prob. Count on us." Said Lumen
"Thanks. It's the old house past the Third District. Look for a big fire sign." Said Cid
He handed me the book, and I recognized it! It belonged to that crazy old magician, Merlin! Just then, some kind of tremor shook the place, and a bell was ringing.
"Wh-what was that?" I asked
"Hmm? The bell at the gizmo shop is ringing. Go check it out if you want, but deliver that book for me first. When you're done, stop by the house in the Third District, I'll be there." Said Cid
We went to the third district, and as we were about to enter the house, I could've sworn that this time I saw not only a flash of blue, but of red too. Weird. We entered inside the house, avoided the gigantic lake in front of us, and made it inside. Man, it was pitch black in here.
"Light Flare." I said
A small version of fire appeared in my hand, giving us some light. Sora seemed to be seeing something, as was Luz.
"Kairi?" Sora and Luz asked in unison
"Sora? Luz?" asked Goofy
They looked back at us, and then back at the place they were staring at.
"Well, well. You arrived sooner than I expected." Said an elderly voice
I turned to see Merlin. He hasn't changed much.
"Merlin!" I exclaimed
"You know him?" asked Donald
"Well, not really, but his reputation pursues him. He's a magician from my home world." I said
"Wait, you knew we were coming?" asked Luz
"Of course. And your face young girl, I can't seem to remember you, but I feel like I've met you before." Said Merlin
"So, um, is he a Heartless?" asked Lumen
"Nope. He's a somebody, like you and me." I said
"Oh, my. No. My name is Merlin, as your friend over there has said. As you can see, I am a sorcerer. I spend much of my time traveling. It's good to be home. Your king has requested my help." Said Merlin
"King Mickey?" asked Goofy
"Yes, indeed. Donald, Goofy, and who might you four young lads be?" asked Merlin
"I'm Sora." Said Sora
"Luz." Said Luz
"Lumen." Said Lumen
"My name is Hikaru." I said
"Such wisdom in your eyes Hikaru. Are you by chance a Keyblade Master, who has passed the exam?" asked Merlin
"Indeed. I'm a full-fledged Keyblade Master. I passed my exam about a month or so ago." I said
"Ah, so these three have found the key." Said Merlin
"What did the king ask you to do?" asked Donald
"Just a moment…" Merlin trailed off
He put down his bag, and stood on the stone circle.
"Presto!" exclaimed Merlin
His bag opened by itself, and a bunch of things popped out. They eventually grew bigger, when I could make out just what exactly they were. Now this looked like a well-lit room, though messy in some places.
"There, now. Ahem. Your king asked me to train you in the art of magic. Master Hikaru is an exception since she is a Keyblade Master." Said Merlin
"Please, just call me Hikaru. I'm still not used to being called 'Master Hikaru'." I said
"Ah, forgive me. We can start anytime you like. Let me know when you're ready to begin the training. Oh, and one more thing." Said Merlin
He pointed his wand at a small carriage, and Cinderella's Fairy Godmother appeared. Oh dear, more familiar faces.
"Hello, I'm the Fairy Godmother. Your king asked me to help, too. I will assist throughout your journey." Said the Fairy Godmother
"I do not know how much I can be of help, but do stop by anytime." Said Merlin
"Oh yeah, I almost forgot. We brought this." I said
"Oh, that book… So, Cid asked you to bring this. Thank you. You wish to know what kind of book it is? I don't even know myself. In fact, it's not mine. Somehow, it found its way into my bag one day. It was such a curious book, I asked Cid to repair it for me. Well, I guess I'll put it here somewhere, for now. This book holds a great secret. The missing pages will unlock it. I'll leave the book over there. Do look at it whenever you like. My best regards to Cid for repairing it for me. Oh, and about that stone of yours… you should ask the Fairy Godmother about that." Said Merlin
"Considering that Leon doesn't know what it is, it's nice to know something around here." Said Lumen
"Lumen!" I scolded
"What?" asked Lumen
We walked over to the Fairy Godmother.
"Do you know what this is?" asked Sora
"Oh, the poor thing! He has turned into a summon gem." Said the Fairy Godmother
"A summon gem?" I asked
"This little creature lived in a world that was consumed by darkness. When a world vanishes, so do its inhabitants. But this one had such a strong heart; he became a gem instead of vanishing with his world." Said the Fairy Godmother
"Can he regain himself?" asked Luz
"Yes, but only his spirit. Now, watch! Bibbity bobbity boo!" exclaimed the Fairy Godmother
The light shined in the air and appeared in front of each of us, but finally picked Luz.
"Whenever you call, he will help you. If you find any more of these, bring them to me. Don't worry, when their worlds are restored, they will return there. Sora, Lumen, Luz, Hikaru, please help save them." Said the Fairy Godmother
"Don't worry, we will." Said Sora
"Well, that's that." I said
"Where are you going?" asked Lumen
"Outside. Why don't you guys practice your magic? I'll be okay." I said
"Alright, but holler if you need help." Said Luz
"Okay." I said
I walked outside, and I heard voices. I then saw Aqua right in front of me.
"Aqua! Wait, please. Don't you recognize me? It's me, Hikari." I said
She turned around, and I saw that itwasn'tAqua. It was someone else. She was wearing a low-cut blue corset with light blue puffed sleeves and a high collar that revealed her cleavage. She was also wearing a royal blue trench coat that flares behind which was shorted and pleated in the front. She also wore a pair of dark, elbow-length gloves with a pair of gold bracelets above them. Her stockings were the same color and were connected to her skirt by a garter belt. She also wore a pair of blue high heels.
"Sorry, but my name isn't Aqua." Said the girl
"Yeah, I noticed. I'm sorry for mistaking you." I said
"It's fine, really. So, you're a Keyblade Master, like me." Said the girl
"How do you know about the Keyblade? And how do you know about me?" I asked
"I can tell just by looking at you, and I've known about the Keyblade for quite a while." Said the girl
"Reina! Hey, where are you?" asked another female voice
"Rita, do you have to be so loud?" asked a second female voice
"Excuse me for being concerned." Said Rita
Two girls then appeared from the alley nearby. One of them had red hair and was wearing a form fitting t-shirt with a V-neck that was long enough to reveal her cleavage and short shorts that were red along with a pair of sneakers. The other girl had black hair with blond streaks was wearing a yellow form-fitting yukata with a blue obi sash. The hem of the yukata was short, so the girl who was wearing it wouldn't fall over, and she was wearing Geta sandals.
"Rita. Yukie." Said Reina
"There you are. We've been looking everywhere for you." Said Rita
Apparently, she was the red head.
"Sorry, I had a run-in with her." Reina said while pointing to me
"More or less, I had mistaken you for someone else." I said
"It's alright. I'm glad to know that there are other Keyblade Masters out there." Said Reina
I then noticed Sora and the others exit out of Merlin's place when Heartless suddenly appeared! Sheesh, these guys are persistent. Just then, a guy with blue hair wearing yellow and blue struck them down. Wait a minute, is that… Terra's successor? It is! Riku.
"There you are. What's going on?" asked Riku
"Riku!" Sora and Luz exclaimed in unison
Sora got to him first, and started pulling the edges of his mouth.
"Hey, hey, cut it out!" exclaimed Riku
"We're not dreaming this time, right?" asked Luz
"I hope not. Took forever to find you." Said Riku
"Riku!" Luz exclaimed while smiling
She then tackled him with a hug. Huh, guess she likes him.
"Wait a second, where's Kairi?" asked Sora
"Isn't she with you?" asked Riku
Sora and Luz had a sad look on their faces.
"Well, don't worry. I'm sure she made it off the island, too. We're finally free. Hey, she might even be looking for us now. We'll all be together again soon. Don't worry. Just leave everything to me. I know this…" started Riku
While he was talking, Sora, Luz, Lumen, and I took out the Heartless that just showed up.
"Leave it to who?" asked Lumen
"Sora, Lumen, Luz, what did you…" started Riku
"We've been looking for you and Kairi, too, with their help." Luz said while motioning to me, Donald, and Goofy
"Who are they?" asked Riku
"Ahem. My name is…" started Donald
"We visited so many places and worlds, looking for you." Said Sora
"Really? Well, what do you know? I never would have guessed." Said Riku
"Oh, and guess what? Sora, Lumen, Luz, and Hikaru are the Keyblade Masters." Said Goofy
"Who would've thought it?" asked Donald
"What's that mean?-!" exclaimed Lumen
"So, this is called a Keyblade?" Riku asked while holding Sora's Keyblade
"Huh? Hey, give it back." said Sora
He ran up to Riku, but fell flat onto his face.
"You're holding the Keyblade, and it hasn't disappeared back into Sora's hands. Impressive." I said
"What does that mean?-!" exclaimed Sora
"It means Riku is qualified to be a Keyblade Wielder too." I said
"Whoa." Said Luz
"Catch." Said Riku
"Whoa." Sora said as he caught his Keyblade
"Okay, so, you're coming with us, right? We've got this awesome rocket. Wait 'til you see it!" exclaimed Luz
"No, he can't come!" exclaimed Donald
"What?" asked Lumen
"Forget it!" exclaimed Donald
"Oh come on! He's our friend!" exclaimed Sora
"I don't care!" exclaimed Donald
"Huh? He's gone." Said Goofy
And Goofy was right!
"Riku?" Sora, Lumen, and Luz asked in unison
They walked up to where Riku was.
"Nice going." Luz said with a hint of anger in her voice
"Oh, well. At least he's okay. And who knows? Maybe we'll run into Kairi soon, too." Said Sora
"Yeah, well, you guys go and meet up with Cid and tell him about the book, I'm gonna go look for Riku." I said
"You sure?" asked Lumen
"Hey, he couldn't have gone too far. I'll find him, promise." I said
"We'll go with you." Said Rita
"Thanks, but I feel like this is something that needs to be done myself." I said
"Go on ahead. We'll use this to keep in contact. If there's something important that you need to hear, we'll let you know." Reina said as she tossed some kind of bracelet to me
"Thanks." I said
I took off in the other direction while Luz, Sora, Lumen, Yukie, Reina, and Rita got to know each other.
Luz's P.O.V.
We just saw Cid go into this small house and figured that it was important. We followed them inside.
"Hey, um, where's Hikaru?" asked Cid
"She's looking for their friend. We just saw him a few minutes ago." Said the red-haired girl
"And who are you three?" asked Cid
"I'm Rita." Said the red-head
"And I'm Reina, her sister." Said the blue-haired girl
"My name is Yukie." Said Yukie
"Great, I have something to tell you guys, and Hikaru's not here." Said Cid
"We can contact her. Hikaru, you read?" Reina asked through a bracelet
"Yeah, I hear ya." Said Hikaru
"How's the search for Riku?" I asked
"Trail's gone cold, but that doesn't mean I'm stopping." Said Hikaru
"Way to be a trooper Hikaru!" exclaimed Lumen
"Thanks, so what's up?" asked Hikaru
"Cid has something to share." I said
"So, you guys ever hear of Maleficent? I hear she's in town." Said Cid
"That old bat's still around?-!" exclaimed Hikaru
"You know her?" asked Sora
"Met her once, can't say the feeling's mutual." Said Hikaru
"Who is she?" asked Sora
"A witch, man, she's a witch!" exclaimed Cid
"She's the reason this town is full of Heartless. Don't take her lightly." Said Leon
"She's been using the Heartless for years." Said Aerith
"We lost our world, thanks to her." Said Leon
"One day, a swarm of Heartless took over our world!" exclaimed Cid
"That was nine years ago." Said Leon
Hikari's P.O.V.
Nine years? No way! If… if only I wasn't trapped in the realm of darkness! If only Xehanort didn't possess Lumen with the darkness! I could've saved their world!
"I got out of that mess and came here with these guys." Said Cid
"That's awful!" exclaimed Donald
"Our ruler was a wise man named Ansem." Said Leon
Luz's P.O.V.
It must be hard for them, living in this place when your world was lost.
"Did you say 'Ansem'?-!" exclaimed Hikaru
"Yeah, why?" asked Leon
"The ruler of my world had the same name! I think… we're from the same world!" exclaimed Hikaru
Everyone in the room was shocked at Hikaru's confession.
"Unfortunately, he dedicated his life to studying the Heartless." Said Leon
"His report should tell us how to get rid of the Heartless." Said Cid
"Where's this report?" asked Sora
"We don't know. It got scattered when our world was destroyed." Said Leon
"I'm sure Maleficent's got most of the pages." Said Cid
Hikari's P.O.V.
I was continuing my search for Riku when I heard a voice.
"You see? It's just as I told you. While you toiled away trying to find your dear friend, they quite simply replaced you with some new companions. Evidentially, now they value them far more than they do you. You're better off without those wretched boys and that girl. Now think no more of them, and come with me. I'll help you find what you're searching for." Said a female voice
"It's Maleficent!" I exclaimed
Suddenly, I had a sudden flare of pain in my chest and I was on my knees gasping for breath when I suddenly saw something, and I saw words appear in the air in front of me.
Through sundered eyes, darkness awakens.
Through twisted words, a heart is lost.
What darkness gains, darkness yields.
The seeress of light soon awakens.
I saw what appeared to be Riku, making some kind of deal with a man in a cloak. I also saw a corridor of darkness open. Two people in black coats appeared, and Ankoku was following them. It can't be. Ankoku, has your heart too fell into darkness? After that, everything turned black.
Third Person P.O.V.
Maleficent was looking over where Hikari was lying down on the ground.
"So she's the seeress. If I had to make a guess, she's unaware of her powers. Perfect. As long as she remains blissfully unaware of them, it'll be easier in the long run." Said Maleficent
Luz's P.O.V.
"So, you delivered that book?" asked Cid
"Yep!" I exclaimed
"Well, that navigation Gummi's installed and ready to go. You find another one, bring it to me. I threw in a warp Gummi for the heck of it. Now you can jump to worlds you've been to before. Well, better get back to my real job." Said Cid
"So, what is your real job?" asked Lumen
"What's my real job? You'll see. See me at the First District." Said Cid
"I've been thinking about the bell in the Second District." Said Aerith
"The one that rang a bit ago?" I asked
"The one above the gizmo shop. There's a legend about it, you know." Said Yuffie
"But it's all boarded up. Nobody can get in there." Said Aerith
"Heck, go check it out. Ring it three times to see if anything happens." Said Cid
We exited the house, and looked around for Hikaru. Where was she? Lumen then looked over the rail and had a shocked look on his face. He ran down the stairs, but before we could follow, we heard him say:
"Hikaru! Hikaru!"
Hikari's P.O.V.
"Hikaru! Hikaru!" exclaimed a male voice
That voice… Lumen? I opened my eyes to see myself lying on the ground with Lumen's hand on my back trying to shake me awake.
"Lumen?" I asked
"Whew, you're okay. What were you doing taking a nap right here?" asked Lumen
"Ha-ha, and it's a long story, with good news, bad news, more bad news, and I don't know if it's good or bad news, news." I said
"Start with the bad." Said Luz
"Maleficent! I just heard her talking up the nonsense I know her to talk up!" I exclaimed
"Yikes. Cid was right." Said Yukie
"So-so news?" asked Lumen
"I think I have the ability to see visions of the future." I said
"Whoa. That's cool. And the good?" asked Sora
"I think I found Riku." I said
"Where is he?" asked Luz
"That's where the more bad news kicks in. Riku's with Maleficent." I said
"No. Not Riku. Why would he do such a thing?" asked Luz
"Maleficent has a way with words. She can manipulate someone to do her bidding without them even realizing it. He may not even realize that he's being tricked." I said
"Well, we're heading off to the Gizmo shop now. You up for it?" asked Lumen
"I should be." I said
We headed for the Gizmo shop after getting the generator to work right, but once we were inside, the Heartless were waiting for us. We all eventually managed to get topside, and found some wooden boards in front of something. My guess, the bell. We all rang it three times, and as the bell finished ringing the third time, I saw a fountain in the distance, and then I saw the Keyhole to Traverse Town! We went to the fountain, but just before we could seal it, the Heartless we faced the first time we entered Traverse Town was back!
"I thought we already beat this thing!" exclaimed Lumen
"Guess not." I said
"Oh well, you know what they say. The bigger they are, the harder they fall." Rita said as she summoned a Keyblade
Rita's Keyblade was red, like, completely red. The handle of the Keyblade looked like a flame that you would see in a fireplace, the blade was a long stream of fire, and the 'key' part was the character for fire. The keychain was a feather, maybe from a phoenix? Reina then summoned hers. Her Keyblade was blue, like water. The handle was shaped like a trident, the blade part looked like a wave of water, and the 'key' was the character for water. The keychain was a crystal tear. Yukie's Keyblade on the other hand looked like the physical manifestation of a wind storm. The 'key' was the character for wind while the handle was a stream of air. The keychain was a tornado. Anyhow, back to the Heartless. Since we fought it before, it was easy to defeat it, until it turned upside down, and opened its face guard. I guess it's pulling out all the stops now. It wasn't until I realized that the head was the weak point was when I began charging up one of my spells. I waited until it was in range, and then…
"Light Shot!" I exclaimed
A large ball of light appeared from my Keyblade and we can now say 'bye-bye' to the Heartless. A strong wind then blew in the area. I'm guessing that means Luz, Sora, and Lumen learned the spell Aero. Lumen then walked up to the Keyhole and pointed his Keyblade at it, promptly sealing it. Another Gummi appeared from the Keyhole. Score! Just then, a feeling of dread washed over my shoulders. I turned around to see a corridor of darkness opening up, and from it, the two people in the black coats and Ankoku. I have a bad feeling now. I saw this coming.
"Well, well, well, look what we have here. A pathetic Keyblade Master of Light. And here we thought we saw the last of you years ago." Said the female in the black coat
"Um, do you know these people Hikaru?" asked Goofy
"I wish I didn't. Stop hiding under those hoods Master Sarah, Master Kyo." I said
They then revealed their faces, but something didn't seem quite right.
"It's been too long." Said Kyo
"Well, not long enough." I said
"Ankoku, take care of her friends. We'll deal with the Keyblade Master personally." Said Sarah
"Alright." Said Ankoku
She rushed past me in a blur of darkness and I could hear the sound of Keyblades clashing. I summoned out Star of Roses. I needed the big guns for this one. When we were far away from the group, Sarah and Kyo summoned new weapons. Sarah summoned a pair of claws while Kyo summoned a whip.
"Wow, so you two have learned some new tricks. I'm impressed, not!" I exclaimed
"Laugh all you want to Hikari, you can't get past this." Said Sarah
Kyo then threw his whip at me, and I dodged it, but out of the shadows came two threads of darkness. Strangely enough, they looked like Kyo's whip. Sarah then went on the attack, but I managed to move so that she only scratched my arm. I then noticed something green in the scratch.
"Poison." I said
"You're right. Your death will be slow, but full of pain, just like how Kira's was." Said Sarah
Kira? No, it can't be.
"What? Grandfather's… dead?" I asked
"That's right. You should've seen how he begged for mercy as he lay dying." Said Kyo
"I'll… make you… pay for that!" I exclaimed
My entire body was surrounded by light, and I focused all of my energies into my hands. The bonds were gone because my light had made the shadows around me disappear. I shot a concentrated beam of light at them, and they clutched one of their eyes in pain. Sarah being her left, Kyo, his right. Ankoku quickly ran up to them.
"You may have won this battle, but you haven't seen the last of us!" Sarah exclaimed as she disappeared in a corridor of darkness
The others came running up to me, and I collapsed, not only weak from the battle and the poison, but also from the fact that the one person who actually cared about me is dead.
"Hikaru, are you okay?" asked Luz
"No, I'm not. I won't be until I've destroyed them! I owe that much to the legacy of my grandfather! He was murdered! By them! I won't rest until I've defeated them!" I exclaimed
Dizzy from the poison, I lost consciousness.
Lumen's P.O.V.
I just saw Hikaru pass out. Not good.
"She's been poisoned. We'll have to give her an antidote." Said Rita
"I have one right here. She'll make it. If there's anything that's true about her, she's one tough Keyblade Master." Said Reina
I carried her on my back as we made it back to the First District and back to Cid.
"Hey, now that was quick! Now you know. I'm in the Gummi block business. Workin' on your Gummi ship sure was great. Come again, and I'll give you a big discount. Oh yeah, I have this for you. Go ahead, take it. It's a special giveaway. Hey, what happened to her?" asked Cid
"We fought these guys with black coats. One of them poisoned her. She'll be okay though. We just gave her an antidote." Said Reina
"That's a relief. Huh, hey, got another navigation Gummi there, eh? I'll bet you want it installed." Said Cid
"Yeah, please." Said Sora
"Hmm… looks like this is another one of those blocks that come in sets. You gotta find the mate to this one." Said Cid
"Okay, we'll come back soon." Said Luz
"We have to finish checking up on something first. We'll meet with you later. Promise." Said Rita
"Okay." I said
I gently set Hikaru down on one of the seats of the Gummi ship as we took off for a new world.
Third Person P.O.V.
Sarah and Kyo were in The World That Never Was trying to see if their eyes still worked.
"Well, didn't expect to see you two here." Said a male voice
A man with black and grey hair in a ponytail, gold eyes, pointed ears, and was wearing the black coat and an eye patch walked up to them.
"Xigbar." Said Sarah
"Rashax, Yxok, didn't expect to see you two here. Man, what happened to you? You look like you had a run-in with a Keyblade Master." Said Xigbar
"That's exactly what happened. Master Hikari is back." Said Yxok
"Master Hikari? She fell off the grid years ago! You sure it's her?" asked Xigbar
"Yes, who else can handle light the way she can?" asked Rashax
"Good point. Xemnas is not going to be pleased." Said Xigbar
"Regardless, the plan continues." Said Yxok
Done and done! Whew, this really took me a while, but I'm finally done! Please review, and until next time, I'm sakuraphoenix, saying I heart you, signing off for now. Kan dao ni!
