Piri's POV

I looked around and saw only the movement of a bell. The captain growled.

"Search for survivors!"

Sora, Donald, and Goofy stayed close to me as we searched. We heard slightly rustling and then a stressed 'kupo'.

"It's a moogle!" I dug through the rubble, "Hang on! Sora, Donald, Goofy! I need help!"

We finally got to the little guy and I held him.

"It looks like it's from Traverse Town." Sora said and I healed him. The moogle floated upward.

"Wait, you can heal?" the captain asked.

"Yeah, I'm a strong healer at that."

"Thank you, kupo." He nodded, "And I'm from Radiant Garden, kupokupo!"

"That's my home as well."

"You look like someone I know..." he said. I raised a eyebrow.

"The enemies! Where did they go?" Sora asked and the little moogle pointed at the mountains.

"He had bunch of heartless that made Mog really hurt, kupo! They head for the mountains!" he said and and I growled. She looked around and the soldiers had a mixture of fear and worry on their faces. I found a still sturdy table, shockingly still standing.

"Sora, can you help me on this table?" He nodded and did so. I sighed and got my determined face on. "Everyone, I need you to listen to me! Those heartless are the enemies that are used by Shun-yu. The only way we can defeat them is if we stick together." I smiled and turned towards Sora. "I've learned never to go in on some dangerous task alone. But that's not the point. My point is I have people I can count on, to make it through. Am I right? Who's with me?!"

"I am!" Sora grinned.

"We are!" Donald and Goofy jumped.

"Count me in!" Ping said.

"Me too." Shang muttered.

"We will too."

"Yeah!" other soldiers started to appeared and join in. I smirked at this and nodded.

"We're gonna need all the support and soldiers we soldiers we need. Come on, let's go." The captain led us towards the summit. "If we die, We die together and with honor!"

'Die? No... never again! Not while I have daughter back home.' I thought as we approached summit. There he was: Shun-yu stood with his hawked on his shoulder. Then behind him were many heartless. Shang and his soldier were shocked; They didn't expect these kinds of enemies.

"Those are heartless! You're weapons will affect them so don't worry." I stated.

"Attack!" Shun-yu shouted and this echoed. The heartless started making their way towards them and Nightfall Key appeared in my hand.

I smirked and whispered, "It looks like you're ready..."

We ran towards the enemies and started to fight them. However it was tough.

I swung the key at the most I can knock down. That's when I noticed a large amount of heartless hovering over a person, and then she saw brown spikey hair.

"Sora!" I jumped in front of him and my hands coated with light and darkness. I dismissed my keyblade and raised my hands. I glared as a warning, "Stay. Back."

One lunged for me and I bursted with light and darkness, which scooted them away from me and Sora. I felt a sharp pain in her arm and winced, but quickly composed myself.

"Pi, your hurt!" Sora knew I was.

"Let's go help!" Of course, I knew he was going to whine but didn't let him. We fought the heartless again.

"YOU MISSED! HOW COULD YOU MISS?! HE WAS RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF YOU!" We heard Mushu yell and there was a boom. We looked at the top of the mountain and saw snow falling from it. I gulped at this.

"Uh oh." Me and Sora said together. We turned around and I looked at him.

"Sora, run now!" He started to make a run for it and I looked around to see some of the soldiers frozen with fear and shock.

"RUN! EVERYONE, RUN! UNLESS YOU WANNA FREEZE!" I yelled and was the last to run.

"Pyro!" Ping yelled.

"I'll be fine. Find somewhere safe! Protect the soldiers!" I said and tripped. Sora gasped at this and made a sprint towards me. He picked me up bridal style and started running. He fell and I quickly got up. I growled and took his hand. We were running towards running towards the mountains edge and I didn't notice. He pulled me back and skidded of the edge. I reflected quickly and grabbed his hand.

"Pi..." he mumbled.

"Don't let go! Just hang on!" I frantically said.

"I can't hold on for much longer!"

I gasped. I need some way to encourage him... That's it! "Come on, Sora! Giving up so easy? I thought you were stronger than that!"

He stopped and widened his eyes, "Riku..."

I managed to get him up a little and the ledge started to give. I gasped and use all the strength I had to grab him and throw him on to safer terms. I gasped as the ledge collapsed underneath me. I let out a shout of panic.

"PYRO!" I sighed in relief when I found out he was safe. The look in his eyes were terror-filled and heartbroken. I sadly smiled as he reached after me, but missed. Now, my own problems...

No One's POV

"PYROOOO!" Sora's voice echoed throughout the mountains and Ling, Yao, Chin-Po and the others came. The tied a rope to a rock and threw the other end for Piri to hold onto. Sora was about to jump with her, but Ping and Goofy held him back.

"NO, LET ME GO! PI NEEDS ME! I WANT TO HELP HIM!" he yelled and cried. He stopped shouting and fell to his knees. Tears never stopped as he was trembling all over, his heart indeed broken. "He... He saved me... Sacrificed himself for me..."

It was completely quiet all except for the soft wind howling and Sora's sobs. Ling turned to the rope and saw it was straight, a bit trembling onto it... like someone was holding on to it! His eyes widened and he gasped.

"Guys, pull the rope, come on!" He called out and he, Chin-Po, Yao, and the others started to pull the rope. Then they heard someone got onto the mountain. When they looked at him, he was wearing a black coat. He had silver hair tied up in a ponytail and wore a blindfold.

"Organization XIII!" Donald grumbled inaudibly and Sora held him back. The brunette squinted and gasped. He had another hooded figure; Piri. They stared at him slowly walked closer to the group. He placed the prophetess turned soldier onto the ground in front of Sora and kept his hand on her cheek. Piri's eyes slowly opened and this figure got up. He walked past Sora. She sat up straight and held her head. It was quiet again and just as the mysterious hero was about to leave Sora broke the silence.

"Wait!" He shouted but didn't face the one who saved his friend. "Why did you save Pi?"

She rubbed her eyes and blinked to adjust her eyes. Silver hair and blindfold, along with the organization coat... she silently gasped and whispered to herself, "Riku..."

He heard her and smiled. But it disappeared and he shook his head, telling her not to say anything. He sighed, turning around and walking away. Sora was about to follow when Piri panicked.

"S-Sora." He shot around, forgetting about him. She stood up, only to be hugged by him.

"Pyro, you're okay!" Tears keep following and Piri sweat dropped at this.

"Cry baby..." She smirked and Sora looked in her eyes, smiling. She got this feeling he was about to lean and pulled away. She looked around. "Is everyone okay?"

Everyone nodded and Ping stepped forward.

"What about you? Are you okay?" 'he' asked and Piri put a thumbs up.

"As I live and breathe!" She grinned and their suddenly Mulan gripped onto her own shoulder.

"Mulan, you're hurt." Mushu exclaimed and Piri's eyes widened as her breath hicthed at her throat.

"Yeah, I'll be..." Mulan realized what Mushu said.

"Mulan, a woman?" Shang asked and she shut her eyes. Piri covered her mouth and felt the tears brimming her eyes.

"No, who are you, really?" The captain grabbed her by the wrist and Mulan glared at him.

"My name is Mulan and talk to me with respect!" Shang took her hairband off and revealed to everyone that she was indeed a girl.

"Respect?! You just impersonated soldier. You don't deserve any respect at all. You've brought dishonor on your family's name!" He pushed her and she fell onto the ground. Darkness gathered around Piri and Sora noticed this; she was getting close to blowing up. The captain drew his sword and raised it to strike her. Piri rushed to block it with her keyblade and her hood fell off, letting her hair fall out. He gasped and Piri shoved him back. Ling and Yao recognized her.

"Reese?" They said with their mouths shot wide open.

"You're not hurting any of my friends." She murderously growled, darkness getting more intense. The captain took a step back. "And you should give us respect."

Sora shook his head as he shook his head as he saw her eyes turn red and blue locks turned to jet black.

"You should be ashamed of yourself! Your parents would be ashamed of having a daughter like you!" The captain said and Mulan gasped.

That only made it worse. She grinned and evilly laughed. She had a double voice, her conscious was getting smaller and losing control.

"Oh really?" The grin didn't leave, "I never meet them so I won't say that~"

She aimed her keyblade at him and Sora gasped. He ran up to and hugged her, "Piri! Snap out of it!"

She jerked and jolted from Sora. Donald and Goofy told everyone else to run, which they took the warning and dashed for the hills.

"Ugh, Piri! Stop!" He held on tight. She screamed and fell to her knees, in tears.

"Mama... Papa..." Her eyes turned blue again as well as her hair. Piri's sobbing trailed throughout the mountains.

"Don't listen to him, Piri..." Sora's heart felt more pains then one. Like, it wasn't just him that was upset to see her crying.

She looked in his eyes and he closed his eyes as three people entered his mind. A woman who he saw back in Olympus Coliseum, A man with jet black hair and sapphire blue eyes, and grandmother Akira.

Then he saw Amara, Darkside, and, the sight that unknowingly tear up, Irix. Why were they flashing through his head?

She looked away and sighed, finally calming down. In the distance was her rescuer, sadden by the sight beheld. He lowered his blindfold and stopped.

"Don't forget... don't be afraid to stare into both." He opened and left in a Dark Corridor

"Mulan, I blew it..." Mushu lowered his head in shame.

She shook her head and then smiled turning to Sora, Piri, Donald, and Goofy, "Thanks everyone. Especially you, Piri, for saving me. Sorry about all this.

Piri shrugged and Sora said, "It's no big deal."

"So what are you going to do now, Mulan?" Piri asked.

"Go back home," Mulan walked away and stopped when Mushu spoke again.

"Your daddy's gonna be steamed as a chicken dumpling." Mulan sighed and nodded at this.

"Mulan..." She walked closer to her. She turned her head and gave her friends a pleading look. Sora smiled.

"Don't worry!" Sora pulled Donald and Goofy in, "We'll share part of the blame for you!"

I giggled and wrapped my arms around them and picked them up. "Yeah, we can't let you go through that alone."

"Piri, your breaking my back!" Donald complained and Piri gasped. I dropped them and they fell to the ground.

"Uh... Sorry guys..." The boys groaned and I nervously laughed.

"You're diffently strong, Piri!" Goofy said, rubbing his head, and Sora nodded in agreement.

Mulan giggled, "Thank you! You're all wonderful friends."

We started walking to the direction of Mulan's home when a roar of anger echoed throughout the mountains. I followed it and peeked off a small cliff and saw Shun-yu.

"He's alive!" Sora said, his mouth agape.

He had several heartless heading to the city.

"We need to hurry!" I said.

"We aren't going to make it in time!" Donald said.

' My little Reese, throw your keyblade in the air. ' I smiled and tears blurred my vision. I know that voice. It was a faded memory I gained from Aqua but I knew.

That was my mother.

"Piri? What's wrong?" Mulan asked. I raised my arm and summoned my keyblade. I sighed and tossed it in the air. It came back down as a keyblade glider.

"Whhhooaa!" They slurred and I screamed like a little fan girl.

"This is mine?!" I got on. It was just like Aqua's glider, except mine was black, white, and gray. "I'll call you 'Great Divide'!"

Sora chuckled, "Doesn't surprise me you would name your ride, Ri."

"Of course it-" I stopped when I realized he called me Ri. Only a few people who love me call me that... Like Riku or Ienzo did. Sora realized what he said and covered his mouth.

"S-sorry, I don't know what's wrong with me..."

I shook it off and got serious, "Only two more people can fit on this. Mulan do you know any short cuts to the city?"

"Yeah, it's through the bamboo forest!" She said.

"Good. Take Sora and we'll meet at the city gates!" I said, getting Donald and Goofy on board the glider.

"Are you sure this is safe?" Donald said as I sat him in front of me.

"Relax, Donald!" I said with confidence. "How hard can be?"

"Yeah!" Donald shouted. Goofy held on to me and I started it. "Wait, what do mean by- WAAAAKKKK!"

Donald clinged to me, blocking my vision. "Ugh, Donald! Get off my head!!" I got him off and seen we were heading straight for a mountain top. Donald and Goofy screamed as I pull the the glider up, safely our of harm's way. "Welp, you almost crashed... thanks to Donald!"
