Chapter 7: The Humanoid Typhoon

Sora instantly felt hot as soon as he passed through the portal into the next world. He had to shield his eyes from the two suns that were high in the sky. From what he could tell this world was nothing but a barren waste land.

Zidane flapped himself with his vest. "Phew man! This place is cooking."

"Zidane are you sure that there's a keyblade, or even people here?" Sora question. "Or any kind of life at all?"

Zidane looked over at Sora. "According to Evan's records this place does have a keyblade and there are people here. There are humans here."

"Or was," Sora pointed out. "Maybe some kind of natural disaster happened or something."

Zidane shook his head. "The records state that this world is nothing but desert. We're in the right place. Let's hurry and find a town. I'm parched already from standing out here. Plus, I have intention on being sunburned."

Sora gave a nod. He still couldn't believe that anything could live here though. There was just no way. Then, they came to the cliff's edge.

"Ha, see!" Zidane pointed. "There's a town right down there."

"I don't believe it," Sora gawked.

"I first to the pub is a rotten chocobo egg!" Zidane jumped down and started sliding down the cliff's edge.

"Hey wait!" Sora called jumping after him. Sora wasn't used to following people around. He was starting to wish that his old companions were back here with him. Zidane was tiring him out. "Enn?" He noticed something he never noticed before. It was coming from the back of Zidane. "A tail?"

They finally reached the bottom. "Ah!" Zidane stretched. "What a rush. C'mon Sora, I need something to drink."

"Aren't you a little young?" Sora questioned, with a sweat drop.

"Hey, I'm 17," he stated. "And you never know what the drinking age in each world is. For all we know it could be 12!"

Sora sighed, the last thing on his mind was to get something to drink. Well, maybe it was the second to last thing on his mind. It was pretty hot over here. Maybe he could get something without alcohol at the bar. He fallowed Zidane around, whom seemed too happy for his own good.

"Oi!" His tail perked up. "Whatcha know! It's an old fashion saloon! This way Sora."

Yes, he is too happy for his own good.

Zidane pushed the doors open quickly. "Konnichiwa , minna-san!" The happy look on his face faded when he saw the bodies on the floor.

He turned to look over his shoulder at Sora. "Looks like someone beat us here."

Sora looked down at the bodies. Heartless? No, this body was massacred. There was something else. Or more like someone else. Then a sound caught his ear. "What was that?"

"Hmm?"

Sora ran past Zidane and jumped over the bar. A little girl sat there. She was curled up in a ball and crying in her knees.

"Hey," Sora said softly. "Hey, little girl." He touched her shoulder lightly.

"Heh?!" The little girl jumped back in fright.

"Sshh, it's okay, I'm not going to help you," Sora said. "I'm here to help you."

The little girl blinked a few times at Sora. It was as if she was studying his face. She made the conclusion that he wasn't dangerous. It was that instant she leapt into his arms and cried on him. Sora stood up holding the girl and looked over at Zidane who was studying the bodies.

"This is horrible," Zidane though aloud. He looked over at Sora. "Is she alright?"

"She isn't injured," Sora said. "But she's afraid out of her wits."

"This definitely wasn't Heartless," Zidane pointed out. "Heartless never actually killed anyone."

Sora nodded, looking around at the blood shed. "Though, I wouldn't doubt that they would show up soon. They do know what we smell like."

Zidane nodded again. "Let's get her to someplace safe first. Find some adults or something. They have to know what happened."

They began to head out the door. That's when the saloon doors swung open. "Ah! Nothing like Wild Turkey on the rocks to . . .."

Sora sweat dropped as he looked at the older man. His hair was blond and stood strait up. He wore red. A lot of red. He had the same expression that Zidane earlier when he was alcohol deprived. Just what I need, an "adult" Zidane.

The figure narrowed his eyes and looked around the room. He then looked at the two boys standing in the middle. "What's going on here, friends?"

"Passing through," Zidane replied. "Came in here for a drink and well. . ." He let it hang.

"Aren't you a little young to be drinking?"

"I'm 17!"

"Are you from around here?" Sora asked. He walked over still holding the little girl. "We found her hiding behind the bar."

The older man looked from Zidane to Sora and the little girl. "No," he replied. "I'm just passing through as well." He looked at the child. "What would a little girl be doing in a bar though?"

"Beats me," Zidane replied. "Most likely trying to hide from whoever caused this."

Sora got a vibe. "Zidane."

"Hai," Zidane nodded in reply. "I feel it too." He drew out his daggers. "Looks like they caught up to us."

Sora set the girl down. "Stay close." He had Oblivion appear in his hands. Shadows began to come out of the walls.

"Oh look, Sora," Zidane smirked. "These have wings. Aren't they cut?"

Sora smiled back. "Makes me want to pinch their cheeks."

The young man in red looks around. "What the?"

"Heartless," Zidane said. "Don't let them get to you, or they'll take your heart. The best way is to just strike them down."

"Are they human?"

"Just mindless vessels," Sora said. "Yah!" He charged for the nearest ones and begin to make his way with them with Oblivion. Zidane took a shot at them as well. He was having a little bit of fun with it.

There was a sound of gun shots and the six heartless remained shadowed away as they were hit. The two boys looked over and the young man. "Not bad," Zidane replied. "Sora, you sense anymore."

"Ie," he shook his head. "I think we're safe for now." He went back and picked up the little girl. "Thanks for the help." He looked at the young man. "I'm Sora and this Zidane."

He blinked a few times. "Oh! I'm guessing you want to know my name too, uh? Hahahahaha!"

Zidane and Sora sweat dropped.

"Well, I hate introducing myself," he stated. "But I like to think of myself as a Peaceful Hunter continuing to chase the Mayfly of Love. . . .."

"Oh Vash! Mr. Vash the Stampede where'd you go!?"

Vash began to wig out uncontrollably.

"Enn. . . ." Zidane and Sora had the biggest sweat drops roll down their forehead.

"I hate it when you call me by my full name!!" Vash turned around screaming at the two young women that walked into the saloon.

"Mr. Vash!" the large....large blonde exclaimed. "What happened here?" She held up a large....large gun at him. "Ok, spit it out! What did you do to these poor people!"

The three of them began to wig out at the sight of the gun.

"It wasn't me Milly! I swear!" Vash cowarded.

"Oh, all right." She smiled and put the gun back in its sling under her coat.

Zidane's eyebrow twitched. What kind of woman is that? Is it a woman at all? Is it human? Then he caught sight of shorted dark haired girl on the side of her. Now that was more like it.

He went over to her enthusiastically. "Greetings, M'Lady. I am Zidane Tribal." He gave a bow and kissed her hand. "A pleasure to meet you." BONK!

"Leach!" she snorted. "You're no better than Vash."

"But Meryl," Milly looked down at her. "Mr. Vash never tried to hit on you ever."

Meryl seemed to get a little agitated. "That's not the point!"

"Hmmm?" Vash looked from Sora to Zidane. "Hey, you heard my name, yet, you're still standing around."

"And you're point?" Sora questioned.

Zidane rubbed his head. "If you haven't guessed yet, we're not from around here." He stood up. "We're from another world."

"Oh really?" Meryl questioned. "I think it's just your cover up for gunning down this poor town."

"Hehehehehe. . ." She's scarier than Yuffie.

"It wasn't them," Vash pointed out. "First off, they don't have guns of any sort. And, second, you think two little kids could do something like this."

"Oi, who you're calling kids?" Zidane said. "I'm 17 and my main man, Sora here is 15. We're hardly kids."

"Yea, and Vash can hold in his liquor," Meryl replied with a sweat drop.

"Ummm," Sora said. "I think we need to get this kid to someone. She's getting really heavy."

"Oh the poor thing!" Milly cried. She ran over to Sora. "Here I'll take her." She took the girl from Sora. Sora cracked his neck and shoulders to get them limber again.

"Well, they are pretty good at fighting," Vash assured.

"Ha, of course we are," Zidane said. "My man, Sora here saved the entire world of Kingdom Fantasy." He gave Sora a pat on the back. A rough pat. "He's the Keyblade Holder. The best there ever was, other then the original, I might add. He's so strong he could take anyone down at anytime. And, not to brag, but I've had my share at saving the world myself."

"Sure you have." The two girls walked outside.

Vibe. "Wait!" Sora called.

----------------------------------------------

Ah it was really hard decided what the first world the dynamic duo would run into first.

I watch too much anime to decide. Sorry I've been delaying on writing this chapter. I've gotten way into Naruto lately. I have fanfic ideas for that one as well! But I have to finish either my Inu Yasha or this story before I decided to start another one.

So, gimme ideas. Next chapter, should we return to Zidane Sora and Vash? Riku and Mickey? Midori to learn a little more about Evan? And what about Yuffie, Dagger, and Kairi? Tell me what you wanna see people!
