"It hurts to see a friend do something you know that isn't for the better good." ~A quote by me
Okay, I need to clear this up. A couple of days ago, I was browsing Wattpad, looking for a good KH fanfic to read, and I came across this fanfic by AilynYuki16. After I read it, I realized that her plot and OC was VERY similar to mine. So, in case she or anyone else that has read her fanfics are reading my fanfic right now and are noticing this, I will tell you this;
I DID NOT STEAL AilynYuki16's PLOT AND/OR OC AND USED IT FOR MY FANFIC. THIS WAS MY ORIGINAL FANFIC THAT I CAME UP WITH YEARS AGO. ANY SIMILARITIES FROM THIS FANFIC WITH AilynYuki16's IS PURELY COINCIDENTAL. I AM PRETTY SURE THERE ARE FANFICS THAT ARE VERY SIMILAR TO MINE AND AilynYuki16.
*ahem*, now that's cleared up, let's go on with the fanfic.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
While we were flying in the Gummi Ship, I asked, "What happened when I was pulled into that trance?"

"Well, you were holding your head then you gasped. You were shaking like crazy and your eyes went all cloudy for five seconds," Sora explained. "What happened to you while you were in that strange phase?"

"I saw visions," I replied.

"What kinds?" He asked.

"I don't know; they moved on so fast that I couldn't make out was going on," I explained.

"Hm...that must mean you had a flashback attack," Sora claimed.

"Huh?" I asked.

"You see, you and Kairi came to Destiny Islands not remembering anything about your past, right?" Sora said.

"Yeah," I replied. "So?"

"So something you heard or saw must of triggered a memory you forgotten," Sora explained. "And you went into a trance while seeing it. Do you know what triggered it?"

"Well, that green-skinned woman," I started.

"You mean Maleficent?" Sora asked.

"Yeah, her," I continued. "She said to me 'until we meet again, my dear child'. That's when it triggered the visions."

"Huh, strange," Sora pondered.

We rode off in silence until we approached a grey blob. When we got closer I asked, "Is that a...whale?"

"Wow, it's huge!" Sora cried.

It swam over us and we didn't know what to do. "Is it a Heartless we have to defeat?" Goofy asked.

"Dunno," Donald replied.

"It's Monstro!" Jiminy Cricket cried. "He's the whales of whales and vicious besides!"

It swam back to us. "Whoa! Let's get out of here!" Donald said

"Too late! It's going to swallow us!" Sora screamed as Monstro the whale opened his mouth and swallowed our ship whole. The next thing I remembered was crashing into something and knocking out from something hitting my head.

*~*~*~*~*~

I woke up when I heard Donald yell, "Knock it off!"

I got up and saw Sora waking up. He got up, shook his head and we walked over to Donald and Goofy. "Hey, Sora, Sakura, how are you guys doing?" Goofy asked while holding his shield over his head.

"We're fine...I think," I replied.

"What are you guys doing?" Sora asked. "Where are we anyway?" Suddenly, a chest flew towards us. We jumped back. "Whoa!" Sora said.

"Uh, ya know, I think that big ol' whale Monstro just swallowed us," Goofy claimed. "And for today's weather: expect showers." Another chest fell from above and landed on Goofy's shield. "Heavy showers," He gulped.

Donald looked up and spotted someone. "Hey!" He called. "Who's there?"

I saw this tall wooden tower. A wooden boy in school boy's clothing was going through a bigger chest, throwing stuff put that didn't interest him. I figured all those smaller chests was from him, throwing them out of the big chest. When he heard Donald, he looked up. "It's me!" He said.

"Oh, it's just Pinocchio," Donald sighed. He jolted up, "Pinocchio?!"

"Pinocchio?" Cried Jiminy as he hopped up onto Sora's shoulder. Pinocchio found a green Gummi block and began walking away with it. "Pinocch, where are you going? Pinocch!" Jiminy ushered us forward. "Come on everybody! After him! Quick!"

We followed Pinocchio and saw an old man. He looked tired and frail, as if he spent many hours worrying. His grey hair almost looked white and he had wrinkles lining his face along with a pair of glasses. He wore similar clothes to Pinocchio, only in a darker color and it was more ragged. "What have you got there, Pinocchio?" He asked.

"With this, we can get out if here, Father," He said, placing the green Gummi block on the floor.

"Really? With this big block? You think so?" He said.

"It's true," Sora said.

They turned around when they heard our voices. We climbed up the tower to fully reveal ourselves. "Oh, my. So the whale swallowed all of you, too? My goodness," Sighed Pinocchio's father.

"Yeah, looks like it," Sora replied.

"My name is Geppetto. I'm Pinocchio's father," He introduced himself to us. "When we got separated, I traveled all over, looking for him. Thank goodness we're together again. So, you seem to know Pinocchio quite well." He lifted up the green Gummi block."I hope he was a good boy in my absence. Well, we've all had quite a journey. Right, Pinocchio?" When he heard no reply, he called again, "Pinocchio?"

I scanned the area. "He's gone," I noticed.

"Oh no! Not again!" Geppetto cried.

"Don't worry! We'll find him!" Sora said.

We began to explore the area, trying to find an exit where Pinocchio might of went through. We found a hole and went inside. The place had blue walls with bright, vibrant color blobs all over the place. We spotted Pinocchio by a wall. "What are you doing? Come on, let's go back," Sora asked.

Pinocchio didn't move from his spot. "Geppetto is awfully worried about you," I added.

Pinocchio still wouldn't move. "Pinocchio, stop fooling around! This so no time for games!" Sora yelled.

He still wouldn't move. I figured if we went back and got Geppetto, maybe Pinocchio would move. As we reached the exit, I heard someone call, "But Sora, I thought you liked games. Or are you too cool to play them now that you have the Keyblade?"

We whirled around to see Riku with Pinocchio. "Riku?" I said.

"Wait-what are you doing here?" Sora asked.

"Just playing with Pinocchio," He replied.

"You know what I mean!" Sora yelled. "What about Kairi? Did you find her?"

"You and Saki seem to be getting along fine without me," Riku shrugged.

"Huh?" Sora asked. "What are you talking about?"

"Catch us and I'll tell you," He shrugged.

"Come on!" Sora and I groaned.

Riku grabbed Pinocchio's hand and took off. We had no choice but to follow him to get him back and to get some info on Kairi.

*~*~*~*~*~

I walked into Monstro a bit more. Without Pinocchio, though. When we ran away from Sora and Sakura, he shook my hand away form his and took off. I decided to walk ahead of him until I heard Maleficent ask, "Why do you still care about the boy and girl? They all but deserted you for the Keyblade and their new companions, after all."

I whipped around to see Maleficent coming towards me. "I don't care about them at all," I said. "I was just messing with them a bit."

"Oh really?" She asked suspiciously. "Of course you were. Beware of the darkness in your heart. The Heartless prey upon it."

"Mind your own business!" I snapped as she walked into a portal she summoned.

*~*~*~*~*~

We ran after Pinocchio and saw Riku. Riku spotted Pinocchio and turned towards the direction he ran. "Riku?" Sora asked. "What's the matter with you? Don't you know what you're thinking? Don't you realize what you doing?"

"Now Sora, Riku," I said. "We should follow Pinocchio, not pick a fight over the situation right now."

"I was about to ask you the same thing, Sora," Riku replied, completely ignoring my question.

I decided instead of sitting around and trying to calm down Sora and Riku, I would go after Pinocchio. Hoping that they wouldn't notice me, I slipped off into the direction Pinocchio ran. I found him in the next room, looking around for an exit. "Pinocchio!" I called.

He turned around when he heard me. "Why did you run off? We were looking for you?" I asked. "Never mind, I think Geppetto will be happy to see you again. Come, we'll go back to your father."

I turned around and led him towards the exit. Then, I heard Pinocchio scream. I whipped around just to see a Heartless grab and stuff Pinocchio in its cage-like mouth with its tentacles. "Let him go!" I screamed as I summoned my Keyblade and ran up to the Heartless. It was too quick. When I slashed one of its two tentacles grabbed my leg and turned me upside down. I thrashed around and glared at it. "Let me go!" I screamed. When it didn't listen, I yelled, "Fire!" And shot a fireball in its eye. It screeched with pain and it angrily stuffed me in its cage-like mouth. I was trapped inside it with Pinocchio. I spotted Sora, Donald, Goofy, and Riku run into the room. I waved at them from the cage. "Help us!" I begged.

They summoned their weapons and fought the Heartless. The Heartless tried to whack them with its tentacles but they were too fast. Sora and Riku put their Keybaldes in the air, yelled "Aero!" and made the Heartless dizzy with a wind spell. The Heartless flew up and spat me out first. I flew out and Sora caught me bridal style in his arms. Then, it spat Pinocchio out and he flew into the hole that the Heartless was once in. Riku jumped after him and we followed them.

We landed on the wooden tower where we were before. I saw Geppetto call out, "Pinocchio! Pinocchio! Please, give me back my son!"

We saw Riku on a higher wooden tower with an unconscious Pinocchio in his arms. "Sorry, old man," He replied. "I have some unfinished business with this puppet."

"He's no puppet!" Geppetto yelled. "Pinocchio is my little boy!"

"He is unusual," He said. "Not many puppets have hearts. I'm not sure, but maybe he can help someone who's lost theirs."

"Wait a minute, are you talking about Kairi?" Sora asked.

"What do you care about her?" Riku snapped as he left with Pinocchio.

We went after him. While looking for Riku, we destroyed the Heartless. But, I was wondering one thing while we were destroying them; What happened to Kairi? How she lose her heart? We found Riku and Pinocchio in another part of Monstro. "Hey, let Pinocchio go, Riku," I called out.

He turned to face us. "A puppet that lost its heart to the Heartless...maybe it's the key to helping Kairi." His face lit up. "How about it, Sora, Sakura? Let's join forces to save her. We can do it together."

I glared at him, "I would like to help Kairi in whatever state she is in right now, but I don't want to use your idea. I'm sure there's another way."

Sora and I summoned our weapons at him. "What? You guys rather fight me?" Riku asked. "Over a puppet who has no heart?"

"Heart or no heart, at least he still have his conscience."

"Conscience?"

"You might now hear it, but right now it's loud and clear. And it's telling me your on the wrong side!"

"Then you leave me no choice."

"Pinocchio! Pinocchio!" I spotted Jiminy running towards the unconscious puppet.

"Jiminy...I'm not going to make it," He mumbled. Then, the strangest thing happened; his nose grew a little bit longer. "Oh! I guess I'm okay!" He cried gleefully.

Jiminy jumped with joy, but he celebrated too soon. The Heartless Sora fought before appeared in front of us. We had no choice but to fight it first in order we can talk to Riku again. It was a lot stronger than the last time, but I was careful not to get grabbed and stuffed into its mouth again. I jumped into the air, screamed "Thunder!" And stunned it with thunderbolts. Sora, Donald and Goofy did a team attack by ramming the Heartless. It collapsed and a blue, crystallized heart came out of it. Then, the whole place started shaking. "Run!" Screamed Donald.

I was going to run, but then I remembered; Riku! Where was he? "Riku? Riku! Where are you?" I cried as I looked. The whole place was shaking.

"Saki! We have to run!" Sora yelled as he grabbed my arm.

"But Riku..." I said.

"Don't worry about him! I'm pretty sure he can take care of himself!" He shouted back as we ran back to our Gummi Ship.

As we got back on, the whale opened its mouth and it sneezed. We flew right out of his mouth as he swam away, "I hope Pinocchio and Geppetto are okay," Goofy said.

"Yeah, hopefully they landed someplace safe," Donald replied.

"Riku..." I mumbled as we journeyed on to the next gummi ship route.

*~*~*~*~*~

I was on Captain Hook's ship with Kairi. She was laying in with couch, sleeping. "So, Kairi's like a lifeless puppet now?" I asked.

"Precisely," Maleficent said, standing right behind me.

"And her heart was..."

"Taken by the Heartless, no doubt."

"Tell me! What can I do?"

"There are seven maidens of the purest heart. We call them the Princesses of Heart. Gather them together, and a door will open to the heart of all worlds. Within lies untold wisdom. There, you will surely find a way to recover Kairi's heart." I listened to her. "But, there is also one more you will need. She is called the Weaver of the Hearts. With her, she can weave the princesses' hearts together to help opened the door to the hearts of other worlds."

"And who is this 'she'?" I asked.

"That is not your concern to know, right now," She replied. "Now, I'll grant you a marvelous gift. The power to control the Heartless."

She casted a spell on me that let off a green aura. I felt way more powerful now. I turned to face Kairi, "Soon, Kairi, soon."
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
