Chapter 1



12 years after soras return to destiny island.  

“DAD!!!  Can uncle Riku take me to the island today?”  A child half covered in mud burst in through the front door.  But before he could track mud all through the house his mother grabbed him and quickly carried him back outside.  “Awww… mom…” the boy said as his mother put him outside then bent over so she was at eye level with him.  

“Now where did you get all this mud from?”  The woman asked as she started to wipe some of it off his face with a towel she brought out.  The boy squirmed in protest.  

“Mmmf!” the boy said as his mother wiped his mouth.  “Nomine did it!” the boy said pushing his mothers hand away.  

“Now you expect us to believe that?!?”  The boy’s father walked up and rubbed the boys hair.  “I doubt Nomine would cover you in mud for no reason.”  The man laughed then he took his hand off the boy’s head and looked at the mud now covering it.  

“No dad. We where having a mud fight with uncle Riku”. The boy said as his mother wiped off his arms.  

“Of cores.   Uncle Riku is behind all the trouble you two get into” the father laughed and looked at his son still trying to fight off his mother.  The boy was 7 years old with blond hair and the most stunning blue eyes.  He looked so much like his father, but he resembled someone else just a little more.  A young man by the name of Roxas.  

7 years ago in the hospital

Sora sat next to Kairi on the hospital bed.  He had his arm around her as they looked down at their son.  The little bit of hare he had was a brownish blond, but his eyes… his eyes where a sparkling ocean blue.  Sora looked into the eyes that where the same color as his.  

“Roxas”.  Kairi said looking up at Sora.  She smiles brightly.  “His name is Roxas.”  Sora looked at her surprised and confused.  “It seems only rite.  We owe him are lives, and remember he still lives inside you.  

Sora looked down at the sleeping child in Kairis arms.  “Your rite.  It’s a perfect name.”  He put his hand on the child’s head, then he bent down and kissed Kairi.   

“Sora?”  Sora snapped out of his daydream and looked at his wife.  

“Sorry” he said with a big grin.  “What did you say?”

“I said you should probably go find uncle Riku and Nomine.  I hate to see what type of condition she is in.”

“Knowing her”, he said, “she probably doesn’t have a speck of mud on her.  But uncle Riku will look like he rolled in mud.”  Kairi laughed at the thought.  Then Sora bent over and wiped some mud off her cheek, and then kissed her.

Ewwwwww was the only response he got from his son who was still covered in mud.  He smiled at the boy, and rubbed his muddy hair again.  Then he headed off to find his daughter and uncle Riku.

Walking along the beach Sora looked back at his house.  It was along the coast, and it looked out towards Destiny Island.  Kairi had always wanted to stay close to their childhood home.  So that spot on the beach was perfect.  Riku lived more in town.  But every day he would stop by the house to visit.  

Sora sat down on the sandy beach and just looked at the island.  He loved seeing it every day.  Remembering the times he had worked so hard to get back to it.  The battles he had fought for it and for his friends.  He sat up sharply as an idea came to him.  Could he still call upon the keyblade?  He thrust out his hand like he used to do, but nothing happened.  Bringing his hand back he looked at it.  Why could he not do it anymore?  

“SORA!”

“DADDY!”

Sora stopped studying the back of his hand and looked up.  Riku was running towards him along the beach.  He was completely covered in mud.  It was caked in his silver hair, and covered every bit of his cloths and skin.  There was no part of him that did not have mud on it.  Nomine was running rite beside him.  Not a spot of mud on her white skirt.  Sora smiles and jumped to his feat.  Nomine jumped into his arms laughing, and he swung her around in a circle.  

Sora smiled and looked at Riku.  “What happened to you?”

“Ask your son,” he laughed.  Sora laughed as he put Nomine down and hugged Riku.  

“So u want to take Roxas out to the island?” Sora asked wile inspecting the mud now covering the front of his white t-shirt.  

“Ya, I was going to teach him how to fight.” Riku said
Sora looked at him through half narrowed eyes.  “Kairi wont like that, and u know it!” he said as he picked up Nomine again.  

“It’s only for a little wile, and I thought u would come along and help.  I even made the swards out of wood.  Just like the ones we used to have.”

“Will Zidane be there so he can verse him later?” Sora asked as he started back to the house.  

“I think so.  He and soma usually are.  But before we go… something came for us, and I need to talk to u about it.” He said in a lowered voice.  

“Oh my god.  I didn’t think it would be that bad.” Kairi stood in front of them with her hands on her hips.  She was trying not to laugh as she looked at Riku.  

“Mommy!”  Nomine jumped out of Soras arms and ran to her mother.  Kairi caught her and hugged her.  

Kairi looked at Riku with a semi-disgusted look on her face and said “your not coming in the house like that.”  

He walked over and kissed her on the cheek.  “Its nice to see u too.” He laughed as he transferred more mud to her face.  He laughed some more as she attempted to chase him towards the beach wile still holding Nomine in one arm, and waving a towel at Riku in the other.  He jumped in the water to get all the mud off before coming out again.  Kairi stud there waiting for him.  When he got out he tool the towel she had, and applied a fresh coat of mud on his face.  It was the same towel that Kairi had cleaned Roxas face with.  Everyone laughed as Riku trudged back into the water.  

“So can I go dad?”  Roxas came out of the house carrying the keyblade that Sora always kept above the inside of the front door.  

Sora took the keyblade away from him.  “Your not going anywhere with this.  This thing is dangerous, and you are not supposed to have it.

“Awwww.  Please…”  Roxas said.

“Not with the keyblade, but u can still go to the island to practice with uncle Riku.”  Sora said.  Then he bent down, smiled and whispered, “just don’t tell your mom what u are doing”

Roxas face lit up.  He started to run into he house to get some new weapon, but Sora grabbed his shirt and pulled him back.  “No weapons!  Uncle Riku already has one for u.  But u will have to wait a little bit.  I need to talk to him before you leave.”

“Will Soma be there?!?” he asked excitedly.  

“I believe he is already there.” Sora said smiling.  “Just go play with Nomine for a little bit wile I go talk to uncle Riku.”  He let the boy go, and he ran over to Kairi and took Nomines hand.  She jumped out of he moms arms and they went towards the beach again.  

Riku was now completely clean, and he walked over to Sora. Kairi fallowed.  “So what did u get?” Sora asked.  

Riku looked back to make sure the kids where a fair distance away.  Then he reached into his pocket and pulled out a bottle with a letter in it.  The king’s symbol was on the outside of the letter.  The smile from Sora and Kairis face immediately vanished.  

“No, it can’t be.”  Sora took the bottle and pulled off the cork.  He hurriedly pulled the letter out and unrolled it.    Kairi and Riku looked over his shoulder.  

6 years ago Sora had received a letter in a bottle just like this.  He had to leave Kairi who was 8 months pregnant with Nomine in order to go help the king.  He missed Nomines birth because of that.  He got back 3 days after her birth.  Kairi was so happy to see him that she didn’t care that he was not with her when she had Nomine.  

But Sora knew that if he left, he might be gone for a few years like he had with his first adventure.  And he couldn’t do that to Kairi or Roxas and Nomine.

Dear Sora and Riku

There is a war being fought with keyblades.  Thousands of keys have been scattered throughout the worlds.  They are being apprehended by an advanced set of heartless.  They are unlocking the worlds and heartless are poring in.  

We need to destroy all the new keys, and find the source of all keyblades.  I will have Donald and goofy come get you in a few days.  

King Mickey
P.s. I hope Kairi and the children are well.

Sora dropped the note and looked at Kairi.  She had tears in her eyes. “No” she whispered taking a step closer to him.  Sora took her in his arms, and held her.  “You can’t go! You just cant!” she cried into his shoulder.  “I can’t stand not knowing!  I don’t want to forget you again!”  She hugged him tighter.

Riku just stud there in shock.  He picked up the letter and looked at it.  Keyblade war he mouthed.  He looked at Sora.  “This will be long,” he said.   “Really long.”  Sora nodded, and Kairi sobbed harder.


Riku recovered himself and stuffed the letter in Soras hand.  “Ok!” he said with energy.  “I'm gana take Roxas and Nomine to the island.  Il leave you two alone.”

“Ya…” Sora said.  “I don’t think I will be going to the island with you.“  

“I figured.”  Riku smiled and headed towards the kids. Sora turned and lead Kairi inside the house.  

“You can’t go!”  Kairi punched Sora in the chest, but he didn’t even flinch.  “You just cant leave again!” she hugged him again and a fresh wave of tears started.  “I love you to much to let you go again.  She looked at his face and realized he was crying also.  

“I don’t want to go either.” He said and he hugged her close.  He looked down into her eyes, and a single tear fell onto her face.  “I love you to much to leave, but you know I have to”

She searched his face as though hoping to find a way to stop him from going.  Then she reached up and kissed him.  “I don’t want to loose you again.,” she whispered, then she pressed her lips back to his.  She then stopped standing on her tiptoes, and grabbed his shirt.  “Come here!” she turned him around and pushed him into a chair.  “You know I hate reaching up to you.”  Sora smiled and pulled her body to his, and she sat on his lap.  He kissed her again, and she put her arms around his neck.  Pulling back she pressed her for head to his and said, “I know you have to go, and I know I can’t stop you.  But please, try to come back as soon as you can, but if you cant finish fast, then please come back and see me every now and then.”  Sora squeezed her closer and she giggled.  

“Ill try my best.”  He said before kissing her again.  

“SORA!” Riku yelled from just outside the house.  Kairi and Sora both jumped up at the sound of the fear in Rikus voice.  “ITS ROXAS!”

Sora and Kairi both ran out the front door at the same time.  Riku was fighting a giant heartless.  It had Roxas in one hand, and Riku in the other.  Riku was stabbing every inch of the creature that he could reach with his keyblade, but it was no use.  The creature would not let go of either of them.

“NO!” Sora yelled.  He left Kairi, and charged the heartless.  He flung out his right hand behind him to call the keyblade, but nothing happened.  He remembered that nothing would happen and instead grabbed Roxas wooden sword off the ground as he charged.  He flung himself at the heartless left arm.  But the heartless swung the hand with Riku in it and sent Sora and Riku both flying through a wall in someone’s house.  Then black flames shot out of the ground and engulfed the heartless.

“NO!!!” Kairi screamed, but it was to late.  The heartless was gone with Roxas, and there was no way to fallow it.  

Sora shoved himself out of the wreckage and ran to the spot where Roxas had been only seconds before.  “No.  No!   NO!!!”  He fell to his knees on the ground where the heartless had just been.  The sword fell limply out of his hand.  And he hung his head.  “This cant be happening.  Why?  Why did they take him?  What do they want with him?!?”  He punched the sand.  “WHY WOULD THEY TAKE HIM!?!”  He hung his head feeling all was lost.  “WHERES NOMINE!!!” he yelled jumping up and looking around franticly with rage in his eyes.

“She’s here” came a half choked voice from behind him.  He whirled around, and then collapsed on his knees again.  Nomine was fine.  She was hiding behind Kairi clinging to her skirt.  She looked afraid of him, but Sora called her over.  He looked up with kindness in his eyes once again.  Nomine let go of Kairis skirt and ran to her father.  Tears where streaming down her face as she ran.  She fell into Soras arms and he hugged her tightly, rocking her back and fourth.  His eyes watered up as he hugged her.  Then he pulled her back and looked at her.  “Your not hurt?” he asked.  Nomine wiped her eyes dry then shook her head and sniffled.  “Thank god” he hugged her again.  

Riku crawled out of the ruble and got to his feat.  “Sora… I’m sorry I-“

“No, it’s not your fault.  Its no ones fault.”  He got up and picked up Nomine and held her in his arms.  “Come on” he said.  Lets get inside.  We need to figure out what to do next.”  He carried Nomine inside.  Kairi sat on a chair in the living room, not moving.  She just stared at the wall.  Tears running down her face.  

Sora turned and gave Nomine to Riku.  Then he sat down next to Kairi and hugged her.  She began to cry again as he hugged her.  “What are we going to do?” she sobbed as she clung to the front of his shirt.  “What’s going to happen to him?!?”

“It will be ok” Sora held her head to his shoulder.  “It will be ok.  He will be fine.  We will go find him.  Don’t worry.  It will all be ok.”

She pulled away from him.  “HOW WILL IT BE OK?!?  He’s probably thousands of miles from this world!  How is that ok???” she yelled.

“Because my heart knows it.” he took her hand in his.  “But first I need to know, did you move a chair from in front of the door when u came in earlier?”

She looked at him confused, with tears still in her eyes.  “No, why?”

“Then I am sure.  Roxas now controls my keyblade.  He can summon it like I used to.  He can defend himself.”  Sora got up and picked the keyblade off the table where he had left it after taking it from Roxas.  “He got this from above the door by calling it.  He is the new keyblade wielder.  So I know that he will be fine until we can find him.”  Just as he finished talking, the keyblade disappeared with a flash of light rite out of Soras hand.  

Kairis eyes widened.  “And now he knows how to use it” he said turning to Riku and smiling.
