Ky, Noel, Elena, Ken, Max, Tails, Blaze, Shadow, Storm, Grace, Kiyo and Zatch, Lucky, T.J., Zuko, Sly, Bentley, Murray, and Lucas leave the Pride Lands and return to the space area and revert back to their normal forms while Sora, Donald, and Goofy are back in the Gummi ship and they also revert back to their normal forms and as the group continue with their adventure they see what looks like a world that has a town and a tower at the top.
"What's that over there?" Ky asked.
"I'm not so sure." Noel said.
"Should we go there?" Elena asked.
"It would be a good idea." Zuko said.
Meanwhile in the Gummi ship the trio see the world and are shocked.
"Hey! That's Twilight Town!" Sora said.
"It's back!" Goofy said.
"Look! Ky, Noel, and the others are going there!" Donald said.
"Let's follow 'em!" Sora said.
The group go for the world and Ky and Noel use their Keyblades to create a light trail and create a light portal and the group follow the light trail and go into the light portal while the Gummi ship enters the world.
In what looks like a downtown the light portal appears and Ky, Noel, Elena, Ken, Max, Tails, Blaze, Shadow, Strom, Grace, Kiyo and Zatch, Lucky, T.J., Zuko, Sly, Bentley, Murray, and Lucas fly out of the light portal before it disappears and Sora, Donald, and Goofy arrive.
"Where are we now?" Sly asked.
"This is Twilight Town!" Donald said.
"We've been here before since we woke up." Sora said.
"Hey! There're also three people we've met!" Goofy said.
"Really? Who are they?" Noel asked.
"Their names are…" Sora was cut off.
"HELP! The sandlot! It's Seifer!" A voice cried and the group see a figure with yellow eyes, wearing a blue top, green pants, and a yellow hat with eyes and a mouth on it running across them. "Somebody help us!" The figure said still running.
"Sounds like we've got trouble!" Sora said.
"Then, let's do something about it." Ky said and everyone nods and start moving.
(World of Twilight Town)
(Field Theme: Afternoon Streets)
(Twilight Town: Tram Commons)
The group go through the downtown to go for the sandlot and later on they go for the next area.
(Twilight Town: Sandlot)
In the sandlot three people are on the ground and are surrounded by Dusk Nobodies and one of the three people tries to move but to no avail but Ky, Noel, and Sora arrive with Keyblades in their hands.
"We'll take it from here!" Sora said.
"Just stay there for a while!" Ky said.
(Battle Theme: Desire For All That is Lost)
(Information: Defeat the Nobodies!)
The Dusk Nobodies attack the group with their arms but Ky triple slashes with Dawn of Hope followed by a roundhouse slash while Noel double vertical slashes with Radiant Salvation followed by a flip slash while Sora horizontal slashes with Kingdom Key but the Dusk Nobodies slither around and try to attack but Elena uses her telekinetic magic to lift the Nobodies and throws them while Donald casts Aero but the Dusk Nobodies go into the air and attack with their arms but Lucas uses PK Flash while Goofy uses Goofy Tornado but the Dusk Nobodies try to attack with their heads but Tails shoots shots from his blaster while Bentley throws bombs but then more Nobodies appear and they appear giant while carrying giant claymores and they are known as Berserker Nobodies and attack with their claymores but Murray uses Uppercut while Zuko unleashes four jets of flames but the Berserker Nobodies aerial attack with their claymores but Storm uses Volt Tackle while Grace uses Tackle but the Dusk Nobodies attack with their arms while the Berserker Nobodies start slamming with their claymores and then deliver a final slam but Kiyo has Zatch use Zaker while Ken unleashes magic music waves but the Dusk Nobodies slither and attack with their heads while the Berserker Nobodies swing with their claymores but Lucky uses Ground Pound while Blaze uses Fire Drill but the Berserker Nobodies slam attack with their claymores while the Dusk Nobodies attack with their arms but Max uses Shield Boomerang while T.J. uses Knife Throw but the Berserker Nobodies attack with their claymores while the Dusk Nobodies slither and attack with their arms but Sly uses Cane Spin while Shadow throws Chaos Spears but the Berserker Nobodies attack with their claymores but Ky, Noel, and Sora strike back making the Berserker Nobodies lose their claymores allowing the three to grab the claymores and then send the Berserker Nobodies into the air three times and then deliver aerial attacks with the claymores and the group defeat the Nobodies.
After the fight the group look around and they then hear a clap and they see a hooded black cloaked figure clapping.
"Impressive. By the way, have you seen a man named Axel or perhaps a girl named Nixa? I expect they're both here somewhere." The hooded black cloaked figure said.
"Nixa…?" Ky asked.
"Like we care!" Sora snapped.
"You see, neither of them are longer acting in our best interest." The hooded black cloaked figure said.
"Is Axel with the Organization too?" Goofy asked.
"Yes." The hooded black cloaked figure answered.
"And I suspect Nixa is also with the Organization as well!" Elena said.
"You suspected correctly." The hooded black cloaked figure said.
"Are you guys having a fight?" Donald said.
"Or did they double-cross you?" Shadow asked.
"Not a very organized Organization." Sora said.
"If you're losing members, then that means our work is cut out for us." Ky said.
"Don't let your guard down. Axel will stop at nothing to turn you, Sora, into a Heartless, and Nixa will stop at nothing to try and take your heart, Ky." The hooded black cloaked figure said.
"Gee, thanks for looking out for Ky and Sora, mister, but they can handle themselves just fine!" Max said.
"Glad to hear it. Axel and Nixa aside, it would break our hearts to hear something happen to you two, and Noel." The hooded black cloaked figure said.
"Your…hearts…?" Noel asked.
"But you don't have any hearts!" Bentley said.
"True, we don't have hearts…but we remember what it was like. That's what makes us special." The hooded black cloaked figure said as he takes off his hood showing a male face with yellow eyes, long blue hair with big bangs on his shoulders, and an X on his face.
"Saix!" A voice called and it's another black cloaked figure with teal spiky and choppy hair.
"Jinux, what is it?" Saix asked.
"We must return to the castle. We'll find Nixa and Axel later." Jinux said.
"Very well." Saix said as he unleashes a dark corridor.
"Wait! Whaddya mean 'bout rememberin' what it was like having hearts?" Goofy asked.
"We know very well how to injure a heart. Sora, Ky, Noel, you three just keep on fighting those Heartless." Saix said.
"Let's jump in after them!" Sora said.
"How come?" Donald asked.
"Are you sure this is a good idea, Sora?" Noel asked.
"I'm not sure, but maybe they'll lead us to the Organization's world." Sora said.
"I guess that won't be a bad idea." Ky said.
"Don't be reckless. Do you want to end up like Riku, Pax, or Nex?" Saix asked.
"WHAT?!" Ky and Sora asked at the same time shocked
Saix takes a slight bow and walks back for the dark corridor.
"Until we meet again." Jinux said as he goes for the dark corridor before it vanishes.
"Wait!" Noel called but the dark corridor disappears.
"Dammit! We had 'em, but they got away!" Ken yelled.
"Ky? Sora? Are you two okay?" Lucas asked.
"What did he mean…end up like Riku?" Sora asked.
"He just said Pax! Does that mean…Pax is…? What did he mean about ending up like Nex?" Ky asked.
"Hey! All of you get outta my town! You've caused enough trouble!" A voice said and the group turn to see the three people.
One is a young man with blond hair, wearing a blue sleeveless shirt with a white sleeveless trench coat over the blue shirt, brown pants, and a black beanie.
The second is another male with tanned skin, black hair, wearing a red sleeveless shirt with black trims, black pants with red stripes on both sides with an eight on them, and a necklace with a lightning bolt symbol.
The third and last is a girl with silver hair that's covering her left eye, red eyes, wearing a sleeveless blue top, and tan pants.
"Excuse me?!" Elena demanded.
"Hey, asshole! We just saved your asses! How 'bout a thank you?!" Ken demanded.
"Watch that mouth of yours, boy or it'll get you into trouble." The first male said.
"You watch yourself 'round Seifer, ya know!" The second male named Rai said.
"Arrogant humans! You're full of yourself!" Shadow said.
"Insolence!" The girl named Fuu said.
"Just get outta my town! We've had enough freaks already!" Seifer said.
"Riku…" Sora said.
"Pax… Nex…" Ky said.
"Have it your way!" Donald said.
"There is no point in arguing with this jerk. Let's just go." T.J. said.
"Fine by me!" Elena said.
The group start to leave.
"Hold it!" Seifer called.
"Now what do you want?!" Kiyo asked.
"Make up your mind!" Donald yelled.
"And we'd expect an apology and a thanks!" Zatch said.
"This goes to the strongest guy in Twilight Town." Seifer said holding out a trophy with a blue orb, red orb, yellow orb, and green orb.
"You mean us?" Ky asked.
"Well, I suppose that counts as a reward." Noel said.
"Thanks, but we don't really need it." Sora said.
Seifer then runs to Goofy and gives Goofy the trophy and Seifer smirks at the group and walks away with Rai and Fuu following him.
"What an asshole." Ken said.
"Let it go, Ken." Blaze said.
"Oh, Sora!" A voice called and it's a boy from earlier.
"Huh? Who're you?" Ky asked.
"Uh, Pence, right?" Sora asked.
"Yeah! Oh, I didn't think we'd have new people here!" Pence said.
"I'm Ky. That's Elena, Max, Tails, Blaze, Shadow, Storm, Kiyo and Zatch, Lucky, T.J., Sly, Bentley, and Murray." Ky introduced himself and his friends.
"I'm Noel. This is Ken, Grace, Zuko, and Lucas." Noel introduced herself and her friends.
"Great to meet you. Wait, you're Ky?" Pence asked.
"Yeah, why?" Ky asked.
"Sora, do you know a girl named Kairi?" Pence asked.
"Kairi?! I sure do!" Sora answered.
"Ky, Do you know someone named Griff?" Pence asked.
"GRIFF?! Yeah I know him!" Ky answered.
"Then, you guys should come to the station." Pence said.
"Where is that?" Zuko asked.
"Don't worry. Just follow me." Pence said as he leaves.
"Griff…!" Ky said.
"Kairi…!" Sora said.
The group start to move but then Storm and Grace see something.
"Pika!" Storm said.
"Eevee!" Grace said.
"Huh?" Elena asked.
The group see a dark hole and it has a tomahawk symbol and surrounding it are rocks.
"It's another of those Absent Silhouettes." Tails said.
"But here?" Goofy asked.
"Let's not worry about that right now." Ky said.
"Yeah! We gotta follow Pence!" Sora said.
"Okay. Let's go." Murray said.
The group leave the sandlot and follow Pence to the next area.
(Twilight Town: Market Street-Station Heights)
The group arrive at a market street and keep following Pence and later go to the next area.
(Twilight Town: Station Plaza)
The group arrive at the station.
"HEY!" A voice called and the group see a boy and a girl.
"Hayner. Olette." Sora said.
"You two! Where's Griff?! I heard he's here!" Ky said.
"So, I take it you're that Ky guy?" The boy named Hayner asked.
"Yes! Now, where's Griff?" Ky asked shaking Hayner.
"Please calm down. We met Griff along with Kairi." Olette said.
"Where's Kairi, and how did you know her?" Sora asked.
"How do you know Griff?" Ky asked.
Hayner and Olette start explaining about Griff and Kairi.
"So, Griff was here?!" Ky asked.
"Kairi was also here?!" Sora asked.
"Yeah, and they said they were looking for you two." Hayner said.
"Where is he?" Ky asked.
"What happened?" Sora asked.
"Well…" Hayner stops talking.
Flashback:
At small building in a spot Griff and Kairi were talking to Hayner, Pence, and Olette and Griff and Kairi start explaining everything to the three about what happened and were talking about Ky and Sora and how they got back together and also separated from each other.
"What a romantic story, Kairi!" Olette said.
"And the way you explained, it sounded like you've been through a lot, Griff. Hey, if you two stick around, Sora's bound to show up, and I think this Ky'll show up too." Pence said.
"Yeah. Sora said he'd come back. We don't know this Ky, but if he's really your friend, then I'm sure he'll come by sometime looking for you." Hayner said.
"Awesome!" Griff said.
"Okay!" Kairi said.
"What took you two so long, Kairi? Griff?" A male voice asked and a dark corridor appears showing Axel and with him is Nixa.
"You know, we had a feeling you'd end up here." Nixa said.
"I tell ya, guys, you two got a lot of guts, jumping right into the darkness like that." Axel said.
"Unfortunately for you, this game of tag is over." Nixa said.
Axel walks over but Hayner and Pence try to attack but Axel dodges them both making them miss and then Axel grabs Kairi's arm.
"Kairi!" Griff said as he's about to help but then vines appear under Griff and trap him.
"Nuh-uh! Don't you fret about Kairi here! You'll be coming with her." Nixa said as she grabs Griff.
"Let go of me!" Kairi yelled but Axel drags Kairi away into the dark corridor.
"Let go!" Griff yelled struggling but Nixa drags Griff into the dark corridor.
The yellow dog then runs into the dark corridor after them before the dark corridor vanishes.
Flashback End.
After what happened Sora takes out what looks like a star shaped charm and stares at it.
"Kairi…" Sora said.
Ky looks down at the ground looking downcast.
"Griff…" Ky said.
"Ya think it might've been Axel and Nixa?" Goofy asked and Donald nods.
"Oh, they're both gonna PAY with their damn lives!" Elena yelled.
"Sorry." Hayner said.
"Hey, it's not your fault! Cheer up!" Sora said.
"Like YOU could even say that!" Ky said.
"Ky… Sora…" Noel said.
"I'm GETTING Griff back!" Ky yelled.
"I GOTTA help Kairi!" Sora yelled.
Ky's and Sora's outbursts causes Goofy to drop the trophy's color orbs but Hayner, Pence, and Olette pick them up.
"That was close…" Pence said.
"Oh, sorry." Ky said as he picks up the blue orb.
"Wait a minute… Goofy, lemme see that pouch!" Sora said.
Goofy takes out a pouch and gives it to Sora who takes out another blue orb.
"TWO?!" Sly asked.
"Where'd that come from?" Lucas asked.
"The King gave the pouch to us to use the train." Goofy said.
Ky and Sora examine the blue orbs and they both point them at the sky and to the sun and Hayner, Pence, and Olette so the same thing.
While pointing at the sky an image of a boy with spiky blond hair, blue eyes, wearing a white shirt with black and white checkered designs with a red collar and a zipper with a star shape at the end, tan pants, black shoes, a white and black checkered band on his left wrist, and a black ring and white ring on two fingers appears in the place of Sora.
"Sora!" Ky called snapping Sora out of his trance.
"Huh?" Sora asked.
"You okay?" Ky asked.
"Y-Yeah…" Sora said.
Just then the blue orb in Ky's hand starts to glow and it starts to levitate and Ky's, Noel's, and Sora's Keyblades appear while the crown symbol appears under the three and they are sent to the ethereal place and the blue orb reveals another keyhole and Ky, Noel, and Sora use their Keyblades to shoot light beams at the keyhole and they unlock a new path and they return to the station.
"What just happened?" Pence asked.
"A new road is open. Kairi and Riku are waiting somewhere along it." Sora said.
"Same thing for Griff, Nex, and Pax." Ky said.
"That means we have to go for a while." Noel said.
"You'd better hurry then." Olette said.
"You guys comin' back?" Hayner asked.
"Promise!" Sora said and Donald and Goofy nod.
"Yeah. Same for us." Ky said and everyone nods.
The group start to leave but then a strange glow occurs on Ky's and Sora's clothes.
"Ky!" Elena yelled.
"Sora!" Donald yelled.
"Huh? What?" Ky asked.
"Is this…?" Sora asked.
(Obtained: Limit Form: Ky and Sora)
(Obtained: Oathkeeper: Sora)
(Obtained: Holy Friendship: Ky)
"Strange. I think our clothes has a new power." Ky said.
"But why not for Noel?" Sora asked.
"I…don't know, but we'd better get going if you want to find Griff and Kairi." Noel said.
"Right!" Ky and Sora said at the same time.
Ky and Noel use their Keyblades to create their light portal and the group enter it before it disappears and Sora, Donald, and Goofy go for the Gummi ship and the group leave Twilight Town.
(Theme: Organization XIII)
Meanwhile at the white room with the thrones Saix appears on his throne and finds the deep hooded black cloaked figure.
"I passed on the message as you so desired. I told the young Sora, Ky, and Noel to keep defeating the Heartless." Saix informed.
"Good. Not only have you the power to inflict pain, but you also have the power to plant seeds of doubt in one's receptive heart. Sora, Ky, and Noel will soon begin to doubt themselves. It will cause them to hesitate, and that hesitation will turn to anger. That anger will fuel them to get rid of their apprehensions and move forward. They will pave the way for the future we desire." The deep hooded black cloaked figure said.
"There's something I've meant to ask." Saix said.
"About Axel? The poor fool. How long will he keep chasing the illusion of friendship, when he himself lacks emotion? Trying so hard to retrieve what he has lost, when it may never have existed in the first place. He deserves nothing more than our pity." The deep hooded black cloaked figure said.
Meanwhile in a white chamber of a castle another hooded black cloaked figure which is the dark and deep hooded black cloaked figure is looking up at the sky that has what looks like a heart shaped moon and just then a dark corridor appears and it reveals Jinux.
"Nixa is nowhere to be found. I expected her to be in both Twilight Town and Gloam City, but she is in neither." Jinux informed.
"What a shame. She's still doubting her place in the Organization. All because of a false friendship she had for a mere traitor. It was fortunate for you that you realized how pointless it was when Special Rank No. IV has left us. Friendship is nothing but a mere illusion to the weak-minded, and that will soon lead to downfall of others. Continue to find her, and don't forget to punish her if she refuses, and if she still does so…bring an end to her existence." The dark and deep hooded black cloaked figure said.
"Yes, Special Rank No. I." Jinux said as he disappears in darkness.
"First, Special Rank No. IV, and now Nixa? Just how is it possible for one to question their own, when they themselves have no emotion? Emotion, friendship, every feeling the heart has is nothing but folly. It's what leads to the darkness itself. I pity not what happens to those, who have fallen under the illusion of friendship, and what exists in the worlds." The dark and deep hooded black cloaked figure said.
