Dragonose's POV- Hollow Bastion

When the group lands, they find themselves in a wide hole in the water. The stone underneath them is gray-blue. Goofy is the first to notice their surroundings.

Goofy: "Gawrsh, look at that."

On the other side of the valley of water, is a giant castle. On it's front side was a giant emblem of the heartless. There seemed to be lots of platform floating near it.

Xenysis "I know this place."

Ymke: "Hmm, that's strange. I thought you said you're from Destiny Isles."

Xenysis, lost in thought: "I wonder why. I feel this warmth inside…" Holds hand to heart: "Right here."

Sora: "Aw, you're just hungry."

Xenysis, snapped out of trance: "Hey, I'm serious!"

Ymke: "Let's go."

Ymke, Xenysis, Sora, Dragonose, Donald, and Goofy started their way across the stone platforms that seemed to be hovering in midair. When they almost reach the top, Sora and Xenysis spot Riku speaking with what looked like a brown werewolf.

Riku: "No vessel, no help from the heartless. So tell me, how'd you get here?"

?: "I simply believed. Nothing more to it. When our world fell into darkness, Belle was taken from me. I vowed I would find her again, no matter what the cost. I believed I would find her. So here I am. She must be here!" He got into a fight stance: "I will have her back!"

Riku: "Take her, if you can."

The beast pounced forward, and Riku backed up slightly. Riku summoned a dark-looking keyblade, and swung at the beast. The beast went down. Xenysis and Sora walked in front of him, and took a protective stance.

Sora and Xenysis: "Stop!"

Riku, chuckling: "So, you two finally made it. About time. I've been waiting for you. We've always been rival, haven't we? You've always pushed me as I've always pushed you."

Xenysis: "Riku-"

Riku: "But it all ends here, there can't be three keyblade masters."

Sora: "What are you talking about?"

Riku: "Let the keyblades choose it's true master!"

At that, Riku held up his hands, and Xenysis's and Sora's keyblades were forced into his hands. After a flash of light, Riku held the kingdom key and the lover's embrace. He inspected each of the keyblades.

Riku: "Maleficent was right, you two don't have what it takes to save Kairi. It's up to me. Only the keyblade master can open the secret door and change the world."

Sora: "But that's impossible. How did this happen?"

Xenysis: "Yeah, we're the ones who fought our way here with the keyblade!"

Riku: "You two were just delivery boys. Sorry, your part's over now. Here, go play hero with this."

Riku tossed two wooden swords towards Sora and Xenysis. Sora kneeled down, defeated. Donald made his way to Riku, but Goofy was more hesitant.

Donald: "Goofy, let's go. We have to remember our mission."

Goofy: "Oh! Well, I know the king told us to follow the key and all, but-"

Donald practically dragged Goofy toward Riku. This enraged Xenysis. His eyes turned almost pure black, and he noticed that Dragonose's eyes turned blood-red with slits for pupils. Then, Donald turned to Sora.

Donald: "Sora, sorry."

As Sora moped about losing the keyblade, Beast got up, and limped toward the castle. When he was almost to the edge of the platform, he kneeled down in pain. Sora and Xenysis ran over to Beast's side.

Sora: "Don't move. You're hurt!"

Beast: "Why? Why did you two come here? I came to fight for Belle. And though I am on my own, I will fight. I won't leave without her. That's why I'm here."

Sora turned around, and was about to take the wooden swords, when Xenysis handed him his twin swords. Sora took them and went by Beast's side.

Sora: "Me too. I'm not gonna give up now. I came here to find someone very important to me."

Sora, Xenysis, Ymke, Dragonose, and Beast made their way over to a metal platform. When they entered it, the platform began moving toward the castle. When they got off, the group found themselves facing an army of heartless.

Xenysis: "Don't worry guys. I got this."

With a single wave of his hand, Xenysis caused all the heartless to disappear. The group walked up to a large gate, but it was locked. There were three keyholes on it. Ymke summoned the Furyblade and Dragonose summoned the Novaking. Xenysis, surprising Sora, summoned the Eternal Winter. Ymke, Dragonose, and Xenysis worked together, and unlocked all three locks at the same time with their keyblades. The gates opened, revealing a lone princess.

Beast: "Belle."

Belle transformed into a heartless, and Beast ran after it, entering a closet. A lone Riku entered the hall, followed by Donald and Goofy.

Riku: "Quit while you can."

Sora: "No, not without Kairi!"

Riku: "The darkness will destroy you."

Riku transformed his clothes into a bodysuit made of darkness. Xenysis gasped.

Xenysis: "You're wrong, Riku."

Sora: "The darkness may destroy my body, but it can't touch my heart. My heart will stay with my friends, it'll never die!"

Riku: "Really? Well, we'll just see about that!"

Riku sent a beam of darkness at Sora, and Goofy blocked it with his shield.

Goofy: "Sora ain't gonna go anywhere!"

Riku: "You'd betray your king?"

Goofy: "Not on your life! But I'm not gonna betray Sora, either. Cause, he's become one of my best buddies, after all we've been through together! See you later, Donald! Could you tell the king 'I'm sorry?'"

Donald: "Hold on, Goofy! We'll tell him together!"

Donald ran to Sora's and Goofy's side.

Donald: "Well, you know. All for one, and one for all."

Goofy: "guess you're stuck with us, Sora."

Sora: "Thanks a lot. Donald, Goofy.

Riku: "How will you fight without a weapon?"

Sora: "I know now that I don't need the keyblade. I've got a better weapon. My heart."

Riku, chuckling: "Your heart?! What good will that weak little thing do for you?"

Sora: "Although my heart may be weak, it's not alone. It's grown with each new experience, and it's found a home with all the friends I've made. I've become part of their heart, just as they've become part of mine. And if they think of me now and then, they won't forget me. Then our hearts will be one."

Sora and Xenysis: "I don't need a weapon, my friends are my power!"

As Sora and Xenysis stated this, the kingdom key and the lover's embrace left Riku's hands. They appeared in Xenysis's and Sora's hands. Xenysis then summoned the Eternal Winter, and got into a fighting immediately leapt forward, only to be stop in midair. Xenysis made a gesture with his hands, and Riku was thrown away. Riku tried to attack Xenysis, but was stopped again, this time inches from his face. Xenysis hacked and slashed at Riku. It surprisingly didn't take long to defeat him. Soon, Riku's darkness suit dissipated, and he ran off.

Sora: "How did you do that?!"

Xenysis: "Simple, really. His suit was made of darkness, so I just controlled the suit. While keeping him still, I defeated him quite easily."

Sora: "I'm confused."

Ymke: "Sora, Xenysis is the being with a heart that can control the darkness and not get consumed."

Sora, to Xenysis: "You can control the darkness?!"

Xenysis: "Yes, it's true. I control the darkness, but it doesn't make me evil."

Sora nodded, then the group went to chase after Riku. 'Why, Riku? Why did you just let the darkness consume you?'
