(This goes along with my other Kingdom Hearts fics. You don't have to read them to understand whats going on.) Also this takes place in between the Mandalorian episode 6 and 7

Upon awakening, the first thing Kairi noticed was an aching in her back. What had happened? The last thing she remembered was getting kidnapped by Xemnas. Right! Xemnas! Kairi sits bolt upright to find herself surrounded by a lush jungle. Last she checked, there were no jungles near the keyblade graveyard. What happened? How long was she out? Were questions that plagued her mind as she got to her feet.

As she got up, she noticed that the forest held some unrecognizable plants. Sure one could dismiss this as just something they didn't know about and that someone somewhere would be able to identify the plant and tell you everything about them. That wasn't the case here. Everything looked alien and it was everywhere, Kairi was sure that a more recognizable and basic plant, something like grass, was not present in this jungle. Now the question was, where was she? She never explored many worlds in her life so she wouldn't know. Sora had been practically everywhere. If he were here, he sure could tell her where this was and what kind of people lived here. Wait, Sora! Where was everyone. She was just taken away when Roxas had arrived along with that new girl Xion. Someone had to notice she was gone and come looking, right?

Until that time, Kairi decided that she would have to be on her own and so began searching for a suitable place to rest.


The Razor-crest had exited hyperspace and slowly moved towards the planet in front of it. Salucami. It was another planet on the edge of the galaxy. Only population there were a few farmers, nothing more. Perfect for someone on the run to hide. The pilot of the ship, know only as the Mandalorian, turned to look at its passanger. A baby of unknown species that was currently playing with a metal ball from one of the ships levers.

"Maybe we'll have different luck here." The Mandalorian says to the baby. The baby in return only smiles and returns its ball so it can be placed back on the lever it came from. The ship then begins it's approach to the planet. "Only people here are farmers. We'll be safe for awhile." He assure the baby as they begin their final approach.

Upon landing, the Mandalorian grabs the baby and carrys him down to the locker that he made the baby's room.

"Stay here. I'm going to look around. Then you can come out." The baby can only stare in response. Assuming he had listened, the Mandalorian closes the locker and prepares his pulse rifle incase of any danger. He lowers the boarding ramp and heads outside. Searching the area around the ship, he finds nothing of any danger, and heads back to the Razor-crest.

"Its safe." He says to the baby as he returns. The baby then walks outside to play. "Don't go too far." The Mandalorian demands. Once the baby is out of sight, he shakes his head. "I'm beginning to sound like a dad." he sighs. He then begins routine checks of their supplys. Ammo. Check. Fuel. Check. Water. Check. Food. Their food was running low. 'Probably should have made a quick run to Lothal to get some food before we came here.' He thinks to himself.

The Mandalorian then makes his way outside to check on the child just in time to see some farmers running up to the ship. He pulls out his blaster and points it at the farmers.

"Hey! What are you doing!" He demands.

"Sir! You have to help us! These dark creatures just appeared out of no where and started attacking our workers! Please, we'll give you anything!" One of them begs. The Mandalorian thinks about it for awhile. He could ask them for rations. Pretty convenient that whenever a problem arises there was a job to fix it.

"You have spare rations?" He asks them.

"Yes." the other farmer frantically responds.

"Then I'll help." The Mandalorian picks up the child. Can't leave it here, he thinks as he follows the farmers to their farm, which was a good 10 minutes away. When they got their, people where running away from a hoard of small black creatures that had no other details besides their glowing yellow eyes. "You brought me here to deal with these?" He asks. It looked like the farmers themselves could handle them.

"They're more dangerous then they look. Some of us found that out the hard way." One of the farmers says. At that moment a farmer that was running from the hoard is caught and a glowing object that appears to be a heart floats out of his body as the body itself disintegrates.

"What the hell." The Mandalorian says to himself as he readys his pulse rifle. Taking aim, he fires on the first creature he sees, disintegrating it completely. Rinse and repeat for a few more of the monsters until Mando notices he is getting low on amunition for the rifle. Deciding to conserve it he switches to his blaster which doesn't rely on ammo and begins blasting away at the creatures. Eventually, they stop chasing the farmers and go after him instead. The hoard was cut down noticeably but their were still a lot considering that before Mando had arrived they took up nearly half the field.

A group gets closer and it becomes clear that the Mandalorian won't be able to take them all out before they reached him. Just as the creatures were in attacking distance, they stop as if they are repelled by something. Mando looks down to the child who has his arms out stretched. He was holding them back using its weird mind powers. The Mandalorian takes this opportunity and uses its flame thrower to quickly incinerate all those being held back along with the ones still charging at him. After that is done, Mando finishes off the few left leaving one, which he kicks in its big ass head, killing it.

"Thank you sir, how can we ever repay you?" One of the surviving farmers ask as the rest of the farmers gather around.

"I need some rations for myself and the kid." Mando indicates the baby, who is now chasing a frog. "And I'll need some credits to restock my pulse rounds." He adds.

"Right away sir." He says as the farmers move to get what he asks. The baby catches the frog and proceeds to eat it as he looks up at Mando, who can only shake his head and pick him up after he finishes.

"Thanks." He simply replies to the child.

The farmers come back with a crate with various foods in them and a handful of credits. "This is all we can spare." One of them says. Mando looks down at his rewards. The credit count was low, as to be expected for farmers, but the food was sufficient. He has the money he got from freeing that one twi'lek anyway.

"This should be fine." Mando says as he accepts the credits and the crate of food. He then carry's the crate and the child back to the Razor-crest as night fall arrives. As the Mandalorian eats with the child, he wonders how long they can hide here until another bounty hunter finds them.


Kairi checked her phone signal again. Still nothing. I thought these phones were supposed to work across worlds." She thinks as she continues to walk. Something about this place just didn't sit right with her. And to add more problems, it was starting to become night. Kairi wished to find some sort of shelter soon as she didn't want to sleep next to these weird plant which were filled with who knows what kind of poison or something, along with the fact that some predator could stumble upon her in her sleep.

As she continued walking through the night she began to think back to they keyblade graveyard, trying to remember what happened. Something had to answer why she was here, why she wasn't getting a signal and why everyone both bad and good was no where in sight.

As Kairi walks she approaches what looks to be a settlement. Just in time too as she begins feeling the drowsiness of the lack of sleep. Figuring the people wouldn't mind she makes her way into what was the barn, which thankfully was absent of animals for some reason, and begins to fall asleep, figuring that she would wake up early to ask the people living here where here is.
