Chapter 1: The Letter
Sora sat there clutching the letter in his hand. He thought that it was all over. He thought the only thing he needed to do now was find Riku and King Mickey. No, it wasn't over though. Just like it read here. Things still needed fixing. Though he had to come to wander just how was King Mickey able to get this letter here from Kingdom Hearts?
He looked back down at the letter. He wanted to make sure that everything was correct. For this was something he could not mess up. It read:
Hi Sora!,
Congratulations and thank you! Because of you, the universe was pieced back together. I do not know what we all would have done with out you. However, it is not over yet.
The universe and the worlds maybe back together, but they are out of order. They are not balanced. If they are not put back into balance this whole universe could crumble once again.
The key to putting the universe in balance is a heart. Not just any heart however. The heart of a very special young man like yourself, named Evan. His Body, Soul, and Heart are separated. They must be brought back together. In order to do this you must find his Keyblade.
In my castle behind my throne is a secret entrance. There it leads to a room where there's a portal. This portal can take you to any world in this sector. You, Donald, and Goofy must take this portal and go to Hollow Baston. There you will meet up with a young man named Zidane. He will give you more details about the mission.
Good luck, Sora! And thank you.
Sincerely Yours,
King Mickey
Sora folded the letter, and put it in his pocket. "Donald, Goofy, let's go."
The two gave a nod to him. The made haste to the palace. Together they pushed the huge thrown revealing a door. Sora reached out and opened the door.
There was long stairway leading down to the room below. It was dark, so the trio were careful with their steps. They did not want to fall and trip on each other. They made it to the end of the stairway. They stared in awe at the portal door. All three of them have been to many places and have seen many things, but nothing as awesome as this was.
"Umm, question?" Goofy spoke out. "How do we work this thing? I mean, uh, how do we make this thing bring us to Hollow Baston?"
"That is a good question," Sora replied. "The King did not leave us on any sort of direction to work this thing."
Then from the corner of his eye he saw two figures scamper across the floor.
"Chip and Dale!" Donald glee. "If anyone can work this thing they can!"
The two chipmunks nodded. Yes, they knew how to work it. Sora smiled. "Good." He looked at his companions. "Let's go." They got the thumbs up and then walked through the portal.
In an instant worlds seemed to pass through their bodies. It was the worst case of whip lash anyone could imagine. It worked though. In a blink of an eye they looked about a complete world of Hollow Baston.
Sora's mouth dropped as he looked around. The world was completely different from when he last saw it in its remains state. It was huge! "Wow."
"Definitely a wow," Donald agreed. Their head turn when they heard a noise. They was a carriage coming their way. It was being towed by a huge yellow bird. And driving it was a ....moogle?
"Kupo!" he cheered as he stopped the buggy. "You're King Mickey's helpers aren't you?"
"That's right," Sora replied.
"Kupo I'm Mog!" the moogle replied. "Hop in so I can take your three to the castle."
"Kweh!" the yellow bird stated.
The trio gave the bird and odd and amazed look.
"Oh, don't worry about him, Kupo!" Mog stated. "Chocobos are friendliest of all creatures. Kupo, next to moogles of course."
Sora gave a nod and the three climbed into the buggy. The chocobo began to walk and they started on their way to the castle.
Sora's attention was kept on the outside. He had never seen such a huge world. It seemed like it would go on forever. There were vast open plans, moutains, and towns. Not just one or two towns, but on their way to the castle they passed up at least 7 or 8 small villages.
"Sora look!" Donald called. He had been riding on top of the carriage. He was pointing ahead.
Sora crawled out halfway from the buggy's window and looked in awe. He saw the very familiar castle of Hollow Baston. Though it was much more intact and awe-stricken. However it was the city surrounding it that was far more awe-stricken than the castle was. "Whoa."
"Kupo! Welcome to Nebelle," Mog said. "The second largest city in all of Hollow Baston."
The city gates opened and let the buggy inside. "Okay, everyone out!" Mog said. "I've got more travelers to pick up."
"Hold up," Sora stated. "We're looking for someone named Zidane. Do you know where we can find him?"
"Zidane?" Mog question. "He's where he wants to be. Don't bother looking for him, because he'll find you. Kupo!" He gave the reigns a snap and the chocobo took off at full speed, leaving a dust trail behind him.
The trio coughed as the dust settled. "Oh great," Sora sighed. "How are we supposed to get around now?" He looked around. "We'll get lost for sure in this place."
"Hey, Sora," Goofy said. "How about we ask where Leon is? He may know where this Zidane is."
"Sounds like a good start," Sora replied. "There's nothing else we can do." He looked around. It seemed they were in the business district of the city. There were shops and stores and venders everywhere you looked. He went to the nearest vendor and asked the clerk, "Umm, excuse me, can you tell us where we can find a man named Leon?"
The sales lady looked up at him. "Leon? Can't say I've heard of him."
"Oh. Well, what about someone named Yuffie?"
"Ah, Miss Yuffie! Yes, yes," the clerk replied. "She had a ninja dojo on the outside skirts of the Living district."
"Can you tell us how to get there?"
"Hmmm," she began to think. "One second." She dug through a box of things. "Here you are sweetie. It's a map of the city." She pointed to a spot. "You are right here. And the dojo. . . " She moved her finger to another spot. "The dojo is right here." She looked up at him. "I'll let you have the map if you promise to return it to me before you leave the city."
"I will, thank you." Sora replied.
"No, problem, and good luck." She continued back to her work. Sora walked away looking at the map in his hands.
"Man, even with this it'll be hard to find where to go," he sighed. "We'll just have to take it one step at a time I supposed. Right guys? Guys?" He looked around. They were gone. He had lost him in the crowd. "Donald! Goofy!" He called at the top of his lungs. He tip toed to see over people's heads, but it was quite hard to do so with more people running into him.
Sora gave an aggravated sigh. There was no way he could find his friends in this crows. There was just too many people! He folded the map and put it in his pocket. He then looked up where the castle was. He betted his bottom dollar that Leon would be at the castle. So would this Zidane person. He also knew the best way at the moment to getting to them would be to find Yuffie. First he had to find his friends.
He looked around and smiled. He ran towards on of the venders and climbed up to the top of one. He stood there shielding his eyes from the sun and looking for any sign of his friends in the crowd of people. He gave off another sigh. This was a hopeless situation. He hopped down from the stand and back onto the street. "I just assume find Yuffie. If I can get there, then maybe she can help me find the others as well." He pulled the map from his pocket and began to follow it.
Unaware there was a presence watching him. His silver hair flew past his shoulders in the wind. So this is the runt that defeated Ansem? He moved a lock of his hair away with his hand. Well, we'll just have to show him how we deal with people like him.

Author's Notes
Well, taking a break from my Inu Yasha story, "The Wolf's Mercenary" I have decided to come up with this.
I had been wanting to write a Kingdom Hearts fanfic for quite sometime now, but coming up with a decent story line without having to rely on ridicules filler chapters was not coming to me. Until New Years Eve in the mist of caffeine, and alcohol I got this wild idea. More explanation on the actual mission itself will be done in Chapter 2 when Zidane comes into the picture.
You can find the first mists of my very own fanart for this story at www.valdrianth.deviantart.com. So far it's only a fandom-made keyblade and a scetch of this "Evan." Note: That my fanart maybe a little ahead of my writings. Any questions don't hesitate to ask!
