-Chapter One-

 

Yen Sid gazed levelly at the crystal ball in his hand.

 

“So, my pupil, you come at last to right that which went so horribly wrong.”

 

King Mickey nodded, quietly.

 

“You're thinking is correct,” Yen Sid told him. “Those four were meant to be together. But fate dealt a cruel blow to them. Had they fought side-by-side, there would be no Heartless or other Nobodies. But Organization XIII abducted them and Castle Oblivion altered their memories so they never knew what their true function in the Heartless War was meant to be.”

 

“Is there any way to bring the mages back into existence?” King Mickey asked.

 

“Axel and Demyx can be brought back,” Yen Sid nodded. “But once that has happened, it will be up to you, my pupil, to close the rift between them and Riku and Sora. That will not be an easy task. Your best bet will be to start off with the remaining rift between Sora and Axel. Since they basically parted as friends, this will not be too difficult. The rift between Sora and Demyx will be a bit more difficult. But Demyx's advice to Sora did save Riku's life. So if you point that out, Sora will be more likely to accept Demyx as a friend.”

 

King Mickey nodded in agreement.

On this unusual day of the year, the wind was blowing which caused massive waves to beat against the shore. So, what were Sora and Riku doing? Surfing, of course. Well, truth be told, Riku was doing the surfing, Sora was just wiping out…brilliantly though. The third time, when he and his board washed up on the beach, he got angry and pouted.

 

“Why can't I do this? I can defeat Heartless, Ansem, Nobodies, and Organization XIII, but I can't freaking surf!”

 

He pulled on his hair in punishment as he watched Riku surf with apparent ease.

 

“It's easy, Sora. You just have to practice.”

 

At that precise moment, Riku hit a reef and wiped out spectacularly in the water. Sora watched with buggy eyes for about a minute then Riku popped up in the shallows, spitting out water and hauling his board up.

 

“Easy, huh?” Sora asked.

 

When Riku approached him, he gave him a playful slap and said,

 

“Shut up, Sora.”

 

 

Sora put on an innocent front, but when Riku had his back turned, he covered his mouth with his hand and laughed. At that moment, a shining metal track appeared on the beach and the two teens looked up to see King Mickey step off the train.

 

“Hey Your Majesty. Good to see you again,” Sora said.

 

“We can catch up later, right now, we have something important to talk about.”

 

“What's wrong your majesty?” Riku asked.

 

“Something went wrong in the Heartless War,” King Mickey explained. “Something that must be corrected. A separation that never should have happened. The two who were lost are coming back. Once that happens, you and they must unite against the Heartless and the Nobodies who remain.”

 

“Who's coming back?” Sora asked. “Roxas and Namine?”

 

“Axel and Demyx.” King Mickey explained.
