"No way could I stop it, it was completely impossible. No one even though of it. I was all alone without anyone for company. Except...her. The one who truly saw through me. I couldn't believe it. Her light was warm, I felt it. It was her the whole time." -Taishin

10 years ago

Everyone was gathered for a much scrumptious dinner, almost everyone was invited. Sora brought his family with him, his wife and daughter. Riku also brought his family too his wife and two kids. Taishin was invited too, his parents though couldn't really come along so Riku decided to take him with. Ven, Aqua and Terra threw a wonderful feast for the guest. Yume wasn't very capable of being clean, she usually would have to wear a napkin tucked in to her dress, so her mother would have to clean up after her. Yume didn't even care, she was enjoying the food even though she little messy.

"Yume sweetie you need to be more clean. When your a young lady you have to be hygienic." Kairi said to her little blond girl.

"What does hygienic mean, mommy?" Yume asked.

Right when Kairi to explain what the word meant, Sora interrupted her.

"It means to be fun." Sora lied as he let out a goofy smirk at his wife. Kairi glared at him for that lunatic statement.

"Don't worry mommy, I'll make to be a very hygienic girl." Yume said golly. Kairi just sign as she wipe the stain off Yume's dress.

Taishin wasn't so comfortable with the feast though, in fact he was homesick. He really wish his parents could be with him, even though Yume was here. Riku saw that Taishin wasn't enjoying himself much, he had a long face filled gloominess. Riku put his hand on his shoulder for some comfort.

"Hey, why so down little guy?" he asked.

"I don't know, it's just I'm not use to being away from my family." Taishin said as he pick on the meat in his plate.

"I know how you feel, i use to be the same way too."

Taision raised an eyebrow at the sliver-haired man, that something he didn't knew.

"Really?" the golden-brown boy asked.

"Yep, when I was little I wasn't so comfortable, being around so much people. It was really difficult." Riku explain his similarity to Taishin.

"Then how'd you got along with others?"

"All I had to do, was to get to know people, and let them get to know me. So they could understand me better. That's when I learn how to get along with others and make new friends." Taishin started to get Riku's story, and how he was to be a more social person. Maybe if he understood people it would be more better for him. When he first me Yume she introduce him to everything around Destiny Island, even the small where most kids like to play island. Taishin didn't understand why Yume was so nice him. It just their first time meeting eachother.

That's when he knew that Yume was just letting him getting to know her, so he could know her better for who she was. Which was something he didn't usually do. But then it made him realize that, she was able to make lots of make friends. That's how he was able to get to know Nini, Raymond, and Rhian. Yume was someone special...really special.

2 hours laters

After the dinner, the adults had there own conversation. Yume was sitting on Kairi's lap. As Sora drank a glass a wine, then another. He was so into drinking wine some much that he couldn't help himself. Even though Kairi had warn him plenty of time not to be drinking so much, otherwise he could end getting drunk like he did when they went to a an adult party and had Riku babysit Yume. And it wasn't a pretty picture, he ended up throwing up in the toilet. Yume even questioned why he was always puking every time he and Kairi go out, Kairi just tells her that he eats too much sugar.

Once dinner was done everyone was getting ready to go home, Aqua on the other hand had something special in mind.

"Wait, Yume!" the blue-haired woman went up to the little blond girl.

"Yes, miss Aqua?" Yume asked.

Aqua put her hand on Yume's chest, then a flash of light glowed underneath her palm. Yume was in awe of what the blue-haired woman did.

"I cast a spell, within you heart. So in case if anything dangerous comes at it, something special of mine will protect you." Yume didn't quit understand what Aqua was saying, but she knew it was something good.

"But I don't understand, malady."

"What is it, what don't you understand?" Maleficent asked.

"Like...uhhh...why can't you let me go after the girl."

"Pete! I told you, I got it settle. Someone else will hand her over to me." Maleficent said to the big cat.

"But, that boy with with glasses didn't even brought her over after you order him to me, and nether did the other boy...uhh who's name...? Oh, whatever they both failed to bring Sora's scrawny little brat to you. Why not let me go, I promise I won't fail like those dumb kids." Pete said with his chest puffed up.

"I'll forgive them for their mistakes. I'll allow them a second chance." the green witch said.

"What?! Your going soft on them?" Pete jumped as he widen his eyes.

"It's not that, they're the only one who have a keepsake for darkness now, and the only ones we can rely on at this rate."

"But malady-" Pete got cut off by Maleficent.

"Are you talking back to me?!" the witch was about to get a fit already, Pete could tell by the angry look on her face.

"N-No malady, I would never-"

"Good, then why don't just keep quiet and follow my instructions." the green witch was already losing her patient.

"Yes m'am." Pete saluted Maleficent.

A black portal appeared just at the moment, Raymond step out of the swirling darkness as he step foot on the castle. Maleficent's eye caught attention to the bottle of light he was holding. She let out a slight smirk on her face.

"I see you got the medicine, apparently you must of got from a princess of heart?" she asked.

Raymond did a little nod, of course she must have known since she knew almost everything about the princesses of heart.

"Well if it isn't the boy with glasses." Pete said with his hands on his hips.

"I was to find an antidote for the darkness corrupting Nini, hope this works." Raymond looked into the bottle with sparkling light, there should be some faith in within the bottle, to bring Nini back. He went over to the black-haired hair girl with the beautiful hair-clip with the blue flower, he kneed down beside her. He brushed her long black hair out of the of her face. He opened her mouth wide enough so the medicine would b able to go down her throat. He opened up the bottle and poured it into Nini's mouth, he made sure that it all went down her throat.

Afterwards it all went down, supposedly the light should wake her up already. Raymond was already getting eager to know if the medicine would take full affect.

"Don't worry, the medicine will take affect eventually. We just need to wait." the green witch came next to Raymond.

"I was hoping she would be fine by now." Raymond said in a disappointing tone. He was mostly sad cause he wanted Nini to wake up from this long sleep. The black spiked-hair boy felt a hand on his shoulder that startle him a little.

"You can't rush these things, beside she would appreciate your patience of her awakening. Wouldn't you want her happy?" of course Nini needed as much rest as she can. You can't really rush someone to recover after all, if the light was goanna stop the darkness inside then there's nothing to worry about.

"Of course." Raymond got up and walk over to the door.

"And just where is the boy with glasses think he's going?" Pete asked with his hands on his hips

"I've got some business to take care of." Raymond open the without even hesitating to looking back.

"Wait, you-" Pete reach out to Raymond but failed as he already left by the door slam.

"Let him. He has the right to do what his heart leads him." Maleficent said.

"But didn't you wanna him to get that little pest?" Pete asked raising an eyebrow.

"He'll do it, I don't need to tell him."

"How-"

"There's still the other one who has my request in his mind. There's no need to fear trouble. Especially...since his heart has even more powerful darkness." Maleficent just let out a smirk.

Yume was feeling stiff at the up-rising event going on, this cloak figure was defiantly bad news. But wait! This was the figure she first met in the secret place back at the island in the secret place. But what was he doing in the Realm of Spirits, this was so bizarre. The only good thing was that she was back into her real body.

"Who are you?" she asked demanding.

"Someone who's in need a special fragment like you." Yume step back a little more, what was he talking about a 'fragment'? Why was she important to him?

"What are you talking about, and why do you keep coming after me?" Yume had a angry expression on her face. This guy was getting on her nerves without answering her.

"I've waited a long for time for this moment to come, you are the key to my incredible ambition." he pointed his figure at Yume causing her to push herself back a bit.

"What do you want from me?" Yume was still confuse at the moment. What makes her so incredible that he would keep stalking her?

"You carry an intense power of light. It's something so bright that even I admire it. I need you Sora's daughter...Yume." Yume jumped in shock with her mouth open. This guy knew her name?! But how?

"WHAT! How'd you know my name?!"

The cloak figure just reach for hood and pushed it back, to reveal himself to her. He showed his face, it had golden yellow cat-like eyes, his hair was sliver. He must the mastermind of the organization, Yume started to get part of the picture. But she still didn't know what was his purpose.

"Wait, your..." Yume already put her hands her mouth. This was an unpleasant suprise.

"Yes, it is I Xehanort."

"Your part of the organization." Yume stated, this is exactly what Yuffie and Leon warned her about.

"Correct. The master of them all." Yume carefully removed her hands off her mouth. This guy must be most powerful master of darkness that she read in the book back in Maleficent's castle.

"But why would you want my light? Your filled darkness." Yume stated.

"Yes. But your light is something that is required to my plan. There's no other heart that the amount of light than your." Yume raised an eyebrow, she had no idea what he saying. What was this about her heart having light within it?

"My heart? It has light?" Yume asked.

"Of course, a beautiful girl like you was destined to have such precious light within your heart." he led out a smirk, which made Yume angry at his nasty trick. She summoned her keyblade and was ready to fight the creep. But Xehanort just lift his hand in stop position.

"I didn't come here to fight you."

"Huh?" Yume raised an eyebrow.

"I have no intention of hurting your heart. It's too fragile and I can't afford to let the light within go out."

"What are you saying?" Yume wasn't understanding this, if Xehanort doesn't want to even lay a scratch on her than why is he here?

Yume looked down at herself, she still wonder why she was back to her real body.

"You must be wondering 'Why are you back in your true self?' It's because I put you back to your real body." Xehanort let out a smirk.

"What?! How did you-?" Yume couldn't even finish her sentence, as she was too shocked to hear something as impossible as this. You can't just change back into your real body that's cast by an intense darkness. Not even the Fairy Godmother could change her back.

"I have a large amount of darkness, it's even stronger than the darkness that cast you into that body."

Something horrible came up to Yume's mind, if Xehanort put Yume back into her body. Then, what happen to Azumi's body?

"What did you do with Azumi's body?" Yume asked demanding voice.

"Isn't it obvious? I got rid of it." Xehanort kept on with his mischievous smirk. Yume gasped with a shocked expression on her face, but this time more scared. He must of done something bad to Azumi's body, maybe he...destroyed it?

"You mean..." Yume knew what he must of done, but was too shocked to say.

"I alienated her body." he said.

Yume widen her eye and covered her mouth, she couldn't believe what she was hearing. Azumi's body was gone for good?

"Don't listen to him Yume!" Yume could still hear Azumi's voice in her mind, but she didn't care. She was too upset by the fact that Azumi's body was gone for good.

"But why?"

"It was nothing personal, I just had to do it in order to send you back to your body. It's what you wanted, wasn't it?" Yume removed her hand from her mouth and balled her hands to fist. She was getting pissed off by Xehanort's cocky acts.

"That's not the only reason why! I also came to help someone who was in need of a body!" Yume shouted.

"That very nice of you, your the well-deserved person of the light. Always putting people in first before you."

"That's right! But why would you care? Your just a dark person who's heart with nothing but hatred and pure darkness!" Yume said pointing at him this time.

"You still know so little, but don't worry you'll soon realize." he raised his hand again, but this time he created a dark aura that flowing on Yume. Yume gasped by the swirling darkness that was covering her body. The darkness was hurting her, she clench her teeth in pain. Why was he doing this to her?

"What-" Yume couldn't speak much due to the darkness giving her intensive agony. She just wish that Donald and Goofy were here to help her.

"No need to worry, it'll be over soon." Xehanort said those words as he moved his hand into a 'come here' position. Yume felt her body being pulled, she tried to fight it. But it was too strong. She kept trying to pull back from Xehanort's reach.

"It's useless to fight it, you've must not force your heart." His words made her even more angry, she didn't care about the words that came out of his mouth. She had to let her heart breath, the horrifying darkness was making it harder for her to move. There had to be a way to fight it, she still didn't wanna give up.

"STOP!" Yume screamed as loud as she could, demanding the darkness to go away. A bright light shine out of Yume's outburst, there was a big flash that made everything vanish. A moment of silence accrued for a few seconds. Yume open her eyes and saw that she was no longer in dark place, in fact she was in a place that was the total opposite, it was a place filled with pure light.

Then suddenly she saw a girl who hand short brunette hair, her eyes were purple. It was Azumi! Yume widen her eyes, was it true? Was she back into her body? Yume went up to her to get better look.

"Thank you Yume." the girl said, it was definitely Azumi.

"Azumi? Your back into your..." Yume was so surprised by it.

"Yes." Azumi nodded.

"But how? I didn't even drink the light from the lake."

"True, but you gave me your light." Yume raised and eyebrow. 'How was that'? she wondered.

"When you release the light within your heart, you gave my body all that light. You already had the light to free my body from the darkness, now I've been able to return to my body. All thanks to you." Azumi said.

Yume formed a suprised expression on her face, now she understood well. It must of been the light within her...heart? Yume now had confused look on her face as she raised a eyebrow, still not getting why she had this light.

"Are you ok Yume?" Azumi asked. Yume blushed a little, not knowing that Azumi was watching.

"Y-Yeah, I'm alright." Yume was little embarrassed at the moment.

Then she felt something appearing from behind, she turn around to see a door of light. Yume looked back at Azumi's.

"It's for you to go, your work here is done. You'll be back to your real body once you head to the Realm of light."

"But, will I see you at the Realm of light?" Yume asked. She was hoping that she'll meet Azumi again, even as a spirit she was still a great friend.

"Of course, now that I'm back in my body, I can go back to the Realm of Light. And we will meet again, now our hearts are connected."

"Yes that's right, our hearts will bring us together." Yume said.

Before she could turn back, she went up to Azumi and embrace herself to her, then Azumi did the same and both of the girls hug. Yume nearly shed tear, but she held it back. She knew that her and Azumi will see eachother again. Once she let go she turn to the direction of the door, she looked back at Azumi who nodded at her, Yume nodded too. She went straight to the door and went it.

Yume fluttered her eyes, she started to hear voices as she was awakening.

"She's waking up!" a voice said, which sounded like Goofy's.

She open her eyes completly to see Donald and Goofy looking down at her. Obviously she was back to the Realm of Light, she got up and put her hand on her head, then she notice that her hands were back to normal she looked under her robe and saw her clothes were back on. She looked up at her blonde bangs and felt her long braids. Yep, she was defiantly back to real body. She went up to Donald and Goofy and gave them a big hug. She was so glad to be back, it was indeed a joyful feeling.

"Easy there kid, any tighter and I'll explode." Donald said.

Yume couldn't help but giggle a little, she pulled away from her two companion who were suffering from her tight hug.

"Sorry guys." Yume said with a little nervous expression.

"You must be very happy to be back to your old self." Goofy said.

"Oh yeah, very happy." Yume nodded.

"It's good to have you back Yume." Donald said patting Yume's shoulder.

The Fairy Godmother walk up to Yume with a smile on her face. Obviously she was impressed to see Yume true self. Someone who looked so beautiful yet so young for a child who's the daughter of the heroic keyblade wielder.

"My, Yume you look so beautiful, you seem to capture your father's looks when he was young. But then again you have the admirable beauty figures of your mother." The Fairy Godmother said.

"Thank you. Oh, what about Azumi is she ok?". Yume asked.

"Yes, she's back to her body now. It's very impressive how you were able to take control of Azumi." Yume raised and eyebrow, even though she remembered what Azumi said that a lot of people failed to take possession of her body because of the darkness that flow within it. But how was she able to?

"What do you mean?" Yume asked.

Before the Fairy Godmother could say anything, Donald and Goofy interrupted.

"That you were just lucky that's all." Donald said.

"Uh, yeah." Goofy said.

A pair of two blue were beginning to open, then they started fluttering. The first thing she saw was the ceiling that was green and black, she lift up her upper body and looked at her surroundings. She wondered where she was and why was she here, her mind was filled with confusion.

"It's good to see you awake finally." She turned around to see a green woman holding a staff with a crow sitting on the green orb of it.

A/N: Hooray, Yume's back to her body again! Hmm, it seems like Donald and Goofy are still keeping the pure heart thing a secret still. But don't you think Xehanort already gave her Yume some hints about it? Oh well, find out on the next chapter. :)

Things you might wanna know, is that Tashin's name is now spelled different. Why? Because 'shin' is Japanese pronounce for 'sion'. So yeah it's no longer Tasion, it's Taishin now. I know I have to fix that don't worry.

Oh, and in case you haven't notice (which I bet you have) Nini is awake!

Again, sorry for the wait. I was doing so many things like reading other fanfics and watching Anime, and school too.
