Sora and Riku had been travelling worlds after they both had shown the mark of mastery. Looking to find Xehanort picking on his trail. The trail being turning people to stone with his keyblade, keeping their hearts preserved to create something that was still a mystery to everyone.

Sora and Riku had defeated 3 of his leader followers out of 5. Slowy finding the key to defeating Xehanort.

"No way, were too late Xehanorts turned everyone to stone." Riku informed Sora.

Twilight Town had been consumed by the darkness at spat back out.

Everybody was turned to stone because of Xehanort and his followers.

They were in the Town Square people around them faces were caught with horror.

Just the thought of how frightened they were would put prickles on the back of any spine.

Sora said quietly but loud enough for Riku to hear, "How can someone be so evil and consumed by selfish desires, of darkness."

Riku slightly flinched at what Sora said, remembering how he gave into the darkness. Still he thought to himself if he was even worthy of being labelled a master.

Suddenly looking up with determination Sora said postively "Come on Riku, we should look around if anyone is...not stone."

Riku gave off a small smile and replied "Yeah I guess, you go left."

Riku thought to himself 'Sora you has such powerful light in your heart, you never give up do you.'


The two friends went on different paths, Sora on the left and Riku on the right.

Not knowing it, Riku had just made a big mistake on seperating him and Sora.

As a dark figure on the clock tower evilly smiled at the two and chuckled to himself.


After searching around for 10 minutes, Sora had gone in a familar alleway and joyous heard laughing.

Jumping at the sudden laughing, he began to run to the source.

He found himself at the hideout of Hayner,Pence and Olette. He saw all of them laughing with Roxas.

Then suddenly the figures of all of them turned to their stone selves and Roxas disappeared.

Sora then said outloud to himself "Mickey did say I could retrieve memories that aren't mine. Roxas you miss them, don't you."

As Sora felt himself slightly smile because of Roxas, he heard movement behind him, in a second Sora summoned the his keyblade and turned around.


Nothing appeared behind he then heard someone behind begin to say "You certainly are a problem."

Sora quickly turned back around to see Xehanort about just 2 feet away from him. Sora surprised jumped back and held the keyblade in a defensive way.

Xehanort just laughed and said "Ventus is in your heart, thats very interesting."

"Ventus?" Sora asked confused, but he didn't let his guard down.

Xehanort summoned his keyblade and exclaimed "I hope your better then your friend."

Sora flinched and yelled "What did you do to Riku?"


5 minutes earlier...

Riku was suspecting a person that was stone as Xehanort appeared behind him, Riku summoned his keyblade and swung around to ge Xehanort. Xehanort blocked it. he then tried to strike, but Riku attempted to knock it out of his hand. Seeing an opening, he pushed Riku into a portal he quickly summoned and said as Riku began to fade,

"I have no use in destorying you, I'm after your friend."

"What do you want with Sora?" Riku beginning to completely fade.

Xehanort just smirked at him and Riku disappeared as well as the portal.


"Right now your only concern, should be your life." Xehanort shouted.

They both ran for each other and as soon as their keyblades met, they were both blown backwards slamming on the wall.

Sora got up as quick as he could and thought to himself 'what was that.'

Xehanort got up a moment after Sora and look at him with an evil smirk.

Xehanort then said "Vanitas you should now understand what to do."

Before Sora could even say anything Xehanort created a portal and entered it.


Sora put away the kingdom key and ran around Twilight Town yelling "Riku, Riku are you here?" everywhere in Twilight Town.

He was nowhere to be found.

When Sora stopped to catch his breath he thought 'Who is Ventus and Vanitas?'.

Sora then shut his eyes and heard a dark laugh in his mind. His eyes snapped open, shocked at the laugh.

Not knowing it, it was Vanitas. Now awakened.
