Chapter 6: Unbirths and Endless

Sora, Kairi, Riku and Brian had followed Scott and Goofy to Brian's house a.k.a the Devon house. Sora still had his suspicions about Brian but at least he wasn't flirting with Kairi at the moment. There all entered the house that made Sora, Kairi and even Riku mouth 'whoa'. The room had technology that either of them have every since before. There were light blue lines on the walls that looked like they were flashing. There were chairs that had been put in the middle of the room and made a circle shape out of it. In the middle of the circle was a giant projector with a light shining up to the ceiling. There was a computer in the back of the room where Kyle was setting up the projector as he opened and closed imagines from the light.

Scott and Goofy sat next to each other with Goofy sitting next to Donald, who was already sitting down. Kairi sat next to Donald, Sora tried to sit next to Kairi but Brian took the seat before he did. Sora just glared at him and sat across from them, Riku finally decide to sit down and sat next to Sora. Kyle sat by the computer as he had to control the projector.

Daniel came in and signalled Kyle to bring up a file but glared back at him when he brought up the wrong file. Daniel went over to Kyle to see what was wrong with the computer. On the projector, there was an image of a solider with green and white marking armour with a separate picture of his face. Sora noticed the solider straight away as it was the same thing that kidnapped the King and the same thing that killed Kairi in his dream. He started to think about how stupid he sounded when he chickened out of telling Kairi how he feels. He looked back at Kairi and gave her one of his goofy smiles. It just made her giggle and smile back. He knew that he had to tell Kairi how he feels even if it was going to be harder with Brian around.

The image of the solider finally when as Daniel came back over. "Sorry about that." Daniel apologised, "Hopefully we can get an image of the creatures you guys fought while at Disney Caste." Kyle started to type on the keyboard as he tried to get the image up. Daniel turned around to see if the image had come up, making Brian and Scott's eyes widened.

Daniel still had the Kingdom key on his back.

Brian and Scott got up and dragged Daniel into the next room but not fast enough as Riku and Sora both saw the Keyblade. They both gave themselves questioning looks as they wondered why Daniel had the Kingdom Key when Sora is the rightful owner of that Keyblade. Brian, Scott and Daniel came back in the room as the image of the creatures finally came on the projector.

"Ok. Let's get started." Daniel began as Brian and Scott went back to their seats. There was a silence for a while until Daniel started to explain. "The creatures you faced are Blinks and Soul-mages; they are the most common out of the Unbirths." Donald and Goofy's faces turned worried as they heard Unbirths.

Sora being Sora, he had to ask about these things. "What are Unbirths?" he asked

"Unbirths are creatures that fight for either light or dark as they doesn't process a soul." Daniel continued. "In a being, there are three things. The heart, body and soul. The soul guides us and helps control the darkness or light in our hearts. Without a soul, the body and heart wouldn't know what to do. Unbirths will start to follow anyone that has a similar condition in their I don't get is that Unbirths only come when the balance of the worlds has become corrupted. If there is too much darkness then Unbirths will follow people with light in their hearts. But after finding out about Disney Castle, I'm thinking that there is too much light." Everyone's eyes widen at this, maybe because Sora and co went around destroying darkness everywhere they go without considering the balance at all. Daniel saw their faces and knew what they were thinking. "Don't worry. You guys didn't unbalance the worlds. But what controlling the Unbirths did." Daniel signalled Kyle to change the image.

A new image came up showing five soldiers with different colour markings on their armour. The green solider was on the projector again which made Sora fists his hands. That wasn't the only reason he fisted his hands, Brian was flirting with Kairi again. Daniel saw this and whacked Brian around the head and told him to listen. Brian just pouted as Riku asked, "Who are they?"

"These are Endless." Daniel answered, "Highly ranked Unbirths but with a twist. Endless do have souls but their souls are corrupted. It is known as the endless virus. When a warrior that fights for light is scared by an endless, then their soul is soon corrupted. The soul will become its own and will attempt to control the heart and body for its own purpose. The soul will gain your emotion in your heart and do the complete opposite from what you really feel…." After ranting on and on and on about Endless and everything else, Daniel looked and found that everyone had fallen asleep. Daniel turned the power off and said "Wateraga".

Water appeared from his hand and soaked everyone that was asleep. Sora and co jumped in shock while Brian slowly got up. "Wow." The soaked Brian yawned, "Is it me or did this lasted shorter that I remember."

Kyle came over after turning the power back on and shutting down his computer as it is doesn't run on electric. "Since your all wet, how about some new garments?" asked Kyle.

"What's wrong with these garments?" asked Riku

"What's not wrong with them?" Brian shot back as he got up. "First main reason is that your garments aren't protected from Unbirths and Endless blasts so you could get affected easily. Second main reason is that your garments will need an upgrade since Unbirths and Endless are completely different from Heartless and Nobodies. And the final reason is that you guys have horribly fashion sense. You're going to stick out like a sore thumb to the Endless when you go to other worlds." So after that, Brian found himself being lifted up by Daniel and was thrown out the room. "HEY!" His voice was heard from outside the front door.

Scott came over with some sort of machine which said 'change-o-manic' as Kyle began to set the machine up. Daniel walked over before explaining that some Unbirths and Endless have the ability to neutralise the Keyblade and the new garments will help them fight with their heart without losing that much strength like Sora did back at Disney Castle. After the machine was set up, Kyle went to the computer for control.

"Who's first?" asked Scott as he stood next to the door, the door sliding open with a cloud of clear smoke behind it. Sora, Kairi and Riku didn't want to go in there as they didn't know what it would do to them.

After a couple of minutes, Kairi stepped forward. "I'll go first. Considering these two are the biggest wimps you could meet." Kairi answered.

"Hey!" Sora and Riku both went. Kairi went in the machine and Scott closed the door behind her. Kyle started up the machine and it started to shine a bright light. After the light faded, Kairi stepped out and made Sora and Riku's eyes widened.

Kairi was wearing a pink halter top with black hoodie and straps going around her neck and down the front of the shirt with a baby blue halter-top underneath it. She had a belt of the same color with a silver heart, her Oathkeeper keychain hanging from one of her belt-loops and a small pack on the other side. Her skirt was a short black one with a silver zipper up the side with more black fabric underneath and pink shorts underneath that.

She giggled when she saw the look on Sora and Riku's face. "I'm guessing you like it then." she giggled. Riku slapped out of the trance and had to hit Sora to slap him out of it. Scott opened the door for the next person and Riku went in before Sora had a chance. The machine did the same as before and the door opened.

Riku came out wearing the similar no sleeve yellow shirt with black and light blue stripes going down it. He also had a black hoodie attracted to the shirt he had his old blue trousers and had black army boots with had silver zips on them. He had marking on his trousers, kinda like the markings you would see on Sora's clothes went ever you see him use a drive.

Riku walked over to Kairi while Sora walked into the machine. The machine's doors closed and began to glow. It took a little longer that normal then the machine suddenly got brighter which made Kyle start to hit the computer as he was trying to stop it.

KABOOM!?

The machine had blow up and scattered around the room, making everyone duck for cover. Everyone got up to find Sora still on the floor. Kairi rushed over to him as he started to wake up, she stopped and noticed his clothes had completely changed.

Sora was now wearing a silver armour undershirt with his dark and light blue hooded jacket over it, had steel shoulder guards and his silver crown pendant around his neck. He had his ¾ length magical pants that were now black, blue and silver and he had black and silver boots. Kairi went by his side and helped him up.

Sora looked at Riku who was still scanning his clothes, and then smiled. "Good thing you went last." he joked. Donald pouted and then kicked Sora in the leg.

"Now we can't get our garments upgraded!" moaned Donald referring to him and Goofy.

"Well how was I supposed to know it will blow up while I was inside it?" Sora shot back.

Daniel interrupted the spiky headed boy and annoying duck and explained that the magic in Sora's old garment must have made the machine over charged. "Now with these new garments, you have the ability to use one of the four elements in hand to hand combat." explained Daniel, "Sora. Your name means sky so you element is wind. You will be able to use powerful aero magic and have the ability to fly without using final form or pixie dust."

"How do I do that?" he asked in a hyper sort of way.

"You easily use your Keyblade to activate the wind ability. The way you did back at Disney Castle." Daniel explained. He told Donald and Goofy to leave the room and go find Brian. He then told Kyle and Scott to turn the training program on which turned the room blank white.

Images of Heartless, Nobodies and Unbirths showed up. Sora grabbed his Keyblade and changed it to pure energy that went inside of him. Sora's trousers showed the symbol of wind as he started to float. Sora put his hands together and thrust them in front of him. Powerful wind came out of Sora's hands and blew away the enemy. He then started to fly in delight, until he hit a bolder that came out of nowhere and fell to the ground. Sora got up and glared at Riku while he looked at his hand. Riku had the earth symbol on his trousers so it was obviously Riku. Sora blasted wind at him making him fall over. Riku got up and smashed his fists together making his hands turn to stone. He saw Sora flying towards him and whacked him in the jaw making him fall over again. Riku jumped on Sora and started to fight with him.

"Well. At least Riku knows that his name means Land and his element is earth." Daniel pointed out to Kairi. Kairi walked over to the two fighting boys and tried to get their attention. An idea suddenly pop into her head as she started to groan. She fell to the floor pretending to faint, which grabbed Sora's attention straight away. Riku could only laugh as he saw his best friend run over to the not so faintly Kairi. Sora went to Kairi only to see him jump went she shouted 'BOO!' Kairi giggled at this, she always knew Sora was sometimes a bit too overprotective.

Sora was about to get her back when Daniel interrupted. "Now that you two have stopped acting like kids." Daniel said referring to Sora and Riku. He turned to Kairi and helped her up. "Kairi. Your name short is Kai which means sea so that means the element you can use is water. Get your Keyblade out and Sora will show you how to change it to pure energy." Kairi summoned her Keyblade which made Riku finch for some reason. Sora remember Riku saying that he finches went Kairi get her Keyblade because of what happened in her training. Sora walked behind Kairi and put his arms around her and put his hands on her Keyblade. Kairi started to blush and turn red went Sora done this, it's a good thing Sora was behind her.

Riku turned to face Daniel with confusion, "how come you didn't show her?" Riku wondered. Daniel simply answered by pointing at Kairi who was blushing like mad. This made Riku smirk and wished that both of them will just tell each other how they felt.

"Ok Kairi." Sora started to explain to Kairi. "You have to use your heart to transfer the Keyblade to pure energy." Kairi nodded as she understood and tried to change her Keyblade but is unable to. "Kairi. Think about the most important thing in your heart. Something that you know will there forever." Sora encouraged her. Kairi then started to think about Sora, how he was always there to cheer her up when they were younger, how he sacrificed his life to give her heart back to her, how he keep his promises to come back home, bring back her lucky charm and not changing after all we have been through. The Keyblade changed to pure energy and when into her. Her skirt then had a water symbol on it. "Nice one, Kai!" Sora cheered. "Hey. What was you thinking of anyway?" Sora asked.

Kairi blushed at that moment and faced Sora, "I was thinking about you." she answered. This made Sora smile before being pulled into a tight embrace by Kairi. Sora blushed and hugged her back as she rested her head on his shoulder. Sora and Kairi forgot about Riku, Daniel, and everything else. They just stayed in that position.

Kairi muttered something in Sora's ear. "Kairi. What did you say? I didn't quiet catch it." whispered Sora. Kairi broke out of the hug and looked in Sora's deep blue eyes.

"I said that I….." Kairi repeated. Sadly she was interrupted by Riku coughing so loud that the whole universe could hear it. Sora and Kairi both blushed as they were brought back to reality and took a step back. Riku just smiled at them both. "Hey Daniel. What can I do?" Kairi asked, changing the subject.

"You can cast powerful water magic and you can breathe under water." Daniel answered; Kairi smiled and then turned to Riku. She blasted water at him making him fall over and making everyone laugh. Sora and Kairi summoned their Keyblades back to their normal form and the soaked Riku did the same one he got up. "Unfortunately, the new garment will make you unable to use spells, abilities, and drives as these garments have a different type of magic." Everyone groaned at this as it meant their will have to learn everything for the THRID TIME IN A ROW!

"Well at least one good thing came out of this." Kairi said

"What's that then?" Riku asked

"You can't moan about my skills with a Keyblade since you guys have to learn abilities again." Kairi joked. Sora put his hand in front of his mouth trying to stop him laughing. It didn't work. He started to laugh with Kairi but soon stop as they both saw Riku's death glare. Sora and Kairi gulped at this. Last time Sora carried on laughing after Riku gave him his death glare, he ended up in the hospital for two weeks with a broken leg.

"Come on." said Daniel as the room turned to its normal state. "Let me show you the gummi you be travelling in." Daniel walk out of the room with Riku following. Kairi was about to follow when Sora stopped her and she turned around to face him.

"Hey Kairi. What were you going to say before Riku decided to cough so loud the earth will shake?" asked Sora.

Kairi was about to tell him when Riku shouted to catch up. She laughed and looked at Sora. "I tell you when Silver over there isn't around." she said as she used the name Hikari came up with for Riku. She smiled at Sora and then walked out of the room. Sora stood there wondering what Kairi was going to say to him until Kairi came back in and dragged him out.

BOWBOWBOW

Brian was sitting at the side of the port as he saw Hikari and Donald helping Takeru who was a friend of the Devon family. Takeru was wearing a dark green body warmer with a long sleeve, light green shirt. He had brown shorts and white snickers. He had short blonde hair with a small Mohican in the middle. Goofy and Max was talking as Brian had finally dragged Max to his dad. Goofy and Max turned and helped the others prepare the gummi ship. Brian just watched as saw no point in helping the 'Keyblade fool' as he put it. Just then, Daniel, Sora, Kairi and Riku came in the port and the trio started to mouth 'whoa' again. No surprise, the port was more high-tech than the entire town. This was the only place you could find these types of gummi pieces. The port was like 100 feet by 100 feet which he must say was huge. Brian stayed put as he watched Daniel introduce Takeru to Sora, Kairi, and Riku. He could hear they voices from over there.

"Let me guess, Danny." Takeru said and turned to Sora, Kairi and Riku. "Ok. You're Sora. You're Kairi. And you're Riku." He said as he pointed to Kairi at Sora's name, Riku at Kairi's and Sora at Riku's name. The trio gave blank looks then started to laugh.

"Yeah. I'm the hero. I'm the Keyblade master." Kairi joked

Brian watched the trio laugh and joke around like they were little kids; He started to think about something then muttered, "The trio you seek are sky, land and sea..."

"Sora, Riku and Kairi." said a voice above; Brian looked up and saw Daniel standing in front of him.

"Why say their names?" asked Brian

"Because Sora means Sky, Riku means Land and Kairi means Sea." Daniel answered before looking at Brian weirdly as he watched Brian get up. "I thought you knew that?" asked Daniel.

"Yeah. I do. I do." he answered quickly.

"Anyway that's not the reason I came over here." Daniel started, "You're supposed to be helping load the gummi ship."

"I'm supervising." he shot back.

"NO. Takeru is supervising."

"I'm Co-supervising."

"You were supposed to be loading!"

"Why should I? I'm not going with the Keyblade fool after all." Brian argued. This made Daniel smirked as it just gave him an idea.

"Actually." Daniel said very long.

"Actually?"

"I'm not going." Daniel smikred

"What? Why not!?" Brian shockingly asked.

"Because Riku and Sora saw me with the Kingdom Key on my back. So if I went with them, they will start asking questions." Daniel explained

"Then you answer their questions." Brian replied sarcastically. He clicked his fingers and made a bottle of water appear. He grabbed the bottle and started to drink out of it.

"Which is why you're going?" Daniel said. Brian immediately spat to water out in shock and all over Daniel as well. Brian's face just looked plain worried.

"You can't be serious?" he fearfully asked.

Daniel began to wipe the water off of him. "Oh. My mind's made up." Daniel answered

"Just three words will change your mind." Brian said quickly

"Which are?" he asked

"SORA HATES ME." Brian said very slowly and clearly.

"Your point is?" Daniel replies acting he doesn't have a care in the world.

"What! You're going to let your youngest brother get ripped up by Bigfoot over there?" Brian said in a frightened sort of way.

"Of course not Brian..." Daniel said and put his hand on his shoulder. "That's why Hikari and Max are going with you."

"I can understand why Max is coming, being Goofy's son and all, but why is Hikari coming?" Daniel moved his hand back to his side.

"To make sure you don't flirt with Kairi since I know that you did not and will not listen to me."

"See. Another reason why I shouldn't go." Brian pointed out

"You're going whether you like it or not!!" Daniel argue

"Fine. But don't come crying to me when I flirt with Kairi which will make Sora sad which will spilt them up." Brian pointed out

"If you spilt them up then I will personally make sure you and your privates will be spilt up." Daniel threatened. Brian mouthed 'Ouch' and looked at Daniel's angry face.

"I'll go pack." he said quickly and ran out of the port. Daniel watched Brian leave and entered the gummi.

BOWBOWBOW

Sora, Riku, Kairi, Donald, Goofy, Hikari, Max and Brian was on the gummi ship. Daniel had just left after finally convincing Sora to let Brian go with them. The only reason Sora allowed Brian to come along was because he had to do a separate mission which Donald and Goofy already knew about since Daniel was suppose to come. Daniel, Kyle, Takeru and Scott were outside the gummi ship ready to wave goodbye to everyone. Brian had just come in after putting his bags in his room and saw Sora in the driving seat. He went over to Sora who was talking to Riku.

"I'm not letting Bigfoot drive." Brian argued

"And why not?" Sora shot back

"This isn't one of those toy gummies you travelled in while looking for your friends. This is a very delicate battleship, something even the Keyblade master can't do without training." Brian explained.

"We'll see about that." said Sora. He started to press certain buttons to start the gummi.

"No. Sora. Wait!" Brian shouted but Sora didn't listen. He pressed a button he would normally press to go forward but it done the complete opposite. The gummi ship blasted backwards and hit the back of the port. Everyone in the gummi ship fell over and Sora fell out of the chair.

Daniel, Takeru and Kyle wondered what happened when they turned to Scott who waving goodbye even though they haven't left yet. Daniel and Kyle slapped their foreheads out of embarrassment of their stupid brother.

Back in the Gummi, Brian got up and went in the€ driver seat, "Your foolishness is gonna kill us." Brian moaned as he took control of the ship. Sora just stayed on the floor and grunted. The gummi ship began to fly forwards and out the gummi port.

Daniel, Kyle, Takeru and Scott waved as they left the world's border. "This mission is gonna by harder than we thought." Daniel said out loud

"You said it." said the other three replied.

"I just hope Brian keeps his mind on the mission, not on Sora and Kairi." Daniel muttered to himself quietly.
