(I do not own Kingdom Hearts or Sword Art Online. All I do is form my imagination from both stories, and share it with the world!)


Introduction

Author: Hello there, folks! My name is Jacob Pendra-Huth, creator of the 'Sword Art Kingdom Story'. I welcome all of you to my latest set of episodes within the last two 'Sword Art Kingdom' stories. These are known as the 'Final Mix' of the stories. For those who don't get it, they are like OVA in anime, so they have little to no affect to the two SAK stories. I'm here with my three main protagonists of the stories; Sora, Asuna & Kirito!

Asuna: It's great to be here, Jacob.

Sora: No kidding! To think my series of 'Kingdom Hearts', mixed with the series of 'Sword Art Online' could bring about such a great storyline.

Kirito: Though there's something ironic with that whole name 'Sword Art Kingdom'…

Sora: What do you mean?

Kirito: Didn't you noticed that the initials of 'Sword Art Kingdom', a.k.a SAK, contain the same first letters of our names?

Author: Kirito's right. S for Sora, A for Asuna, and K for Kirito. This was complete coincidence, I assure you.

Asuna: But that's not why you called us here, is it?

Author: No, actually. Since we dealt with such a long set of episodes, especially since it is a crossover, I figured some of our readers might be confused as to what each of the main character's backstories have become. So now, I wanted to explain to them what each of your backstories are like, beginning from each of your past endeavors, up to what you did in the 'Sword Art Kingdom' series.

Kirito: No joke. And I bet all of this also follows up on how it will effect us in the future episodes, right?

Author: Right. So we should deal with almost all of the characters greatly involved in the series. Basically, thirteen characters.

Asuna: So who are you gonna explain first?

Author: Well, since the three of you are here, let's start with the three of you, starting with the first initial of my story; S…


Sora

(Cue Kingdom Hearts OST 'Sora')

Sora is the main protagonist of the 'Kingdom Hearts' series, and also one of the protagonists of the 'Sword Art Kingdom' series. His home world is the Destiny Islands, where he lives with his best friends, Riku and Kairi.

Sora did not officially become a Keyblade wielder by normal means. Sora's origin started when he was only four years old. Sora had came in contact with two of the original Keyblade wielders, Terra and Aqua, but was not chosen by either one of them to be the next in line. Instead, Ventus' heart, which had been damaged after his battle against Vanitas, entered into Sora's heart, where he sleeps.

During the events of 'Kingdom Hearts', Sora was granted the power of the Keyblade, which was suppose to go to Riku. However, Riku's heart had given into the darkness. Using this power he gained, he journeyed with Donald Duck and Goofy in order to find Sora's friends and King Mickey, and stop Ansem and the Heartless from finding Kingdom Hearts. In the end, they prevailed, defeated Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, and they sealed the Door to Darkness, with Riku and Mickey still inside.

The trio then set out to find a way to reach them, during the events, they discovered Castle Oblivion, and being tricked by Organization XIII, their memories were messed up by Naminé, Kairi's Nobody. In the end, the trio met Naminé, and she placed the trio in a deep sleep in order to return their memories back to the way they were once more, minus the memories of what happened in Castle Oblivion. So for a year, the trio slept, their memories being restored in the process…


Asuna

(Cue Sword Art Online OST 'Fight!')

Asuna Yuuki is the female protagonist of the 'Sword Art Online' series, along with the main female protagonist of the 'Sword Art Kingdom' series. She comes from a rich family, where she lives with her mother, father and brother.

Asuna was not actually a true member of the Yuuki family. She was originally from Sora's dimension, and was the younger sister of Aqua, one of the original Keyblade wielders. She had the potential of becoming a Keyblade wielder, just like her sister. However, thanks to Xehanort's tampering, he sent Asuna to the other dimension when she was just a month old. This led to Aqua's true ambition to becoming a Keyblade Master; in order to find Asuna again.

Thanks to the guidance of Keyblade Master Gretinal, baby Asuna was set upon the doorsteps of the Yuuki residence. Along with her came also a white Wayfinder, given to her by Asuna's real mother, with her name inscribed by the young Aqua. Mr. and Mrs. Yuuki decided to take her in as their daughter, keeping the secret about her origin from anyone else, even Asuna herself. Mr. Yuuki even hid the Wayfinder from Asuna. Thus, she became Asuna Yuuki, a normal girl from a rich family, who had no idea of how special she really was.

At the age of fifteen, Asuna accidentally got herself trapped in Sword Art Online when she placed on her brother's NerveGear. Despite her utter lack of knowledge in VRMMOs, she quickly became one of the strongest fighters in the game, and was given the nickname 'Lightning Flash' after her superb skills with a rapier. She even became second in command of the best guild in the game, Knights of the Blood Oath.

During the two years she spent in the game, she had become connected to Kirito, the Beater of SAO. Despite a few quarrels here and there, the two eventually fell in love, and they became married in-game. During their marriage, they discovered the child, Yui, who was an AI, and she became their daughter.

In the end of it, when Kirito discovered Akihiko Kayaba, the creator of the game, and tried fighting him, Asuna protected Kirito, sacrificing herself so Kirito could beat Kayaba. The two survived the ordeal, and were thought to be sent back to the real world again.

However, Sugou Nobuyuki, the CEO of RECT Progress, and Asuna's fiancé, trapped Asuna and three hundred minds in ALFheim Online, where he attempted to seduce Asuna while discovering the way of controlling the minds of the trapped Players. However, Kirito, with the aid of Leafa and Recon, saved Asuna from Sugou's clutches, and defeated him.

Over the next year, Asuna had experienced many more such adventures, such as watching Kirito during the Phantom Bullet Arc or the Alicization Arc, to aiding Kirito in gaining Excalibur, to her moments with Yuuki Konno in the Mother's Rosario Arc. However, her events with Kirito and Yui were far from over, as she would soon find out…


Kirito

(Cue Sword Art Online OST 'Survive the Swordland')

Kirito, a.k.a Kazuto Kirigaya, is the main protagonist of 'Sword Art Online', and is one of the main protagonists of the 'Sword Art Kingdom' series. He is the adopted child of the Kirigaya family, and he lives with his aunt, uncle, and his cousin Suguha.

Kirito was made a chosen wielder of the Keyblade, but had no way of activating its' power. However, he did embody one thing inside him; a piece of Terra's soul. He gained this after Xehanort took over Terra's body, and separating a part of Terra's soul from his body. It found its' way to the other dimension, where it fell asleep within Kirito's heart. Kirito had no idea this actually happened to him, since he was asleep at that moment.

Kirito didn't find out he was adopted until he discovered it at the age of ten. Since then, he was drawn to VRMMOs, separating himself from his family. At the age of fourteen, Kirito became one of the thousand beta testers for SAO, and was one of the finest among them. This led to him being trapped within the game when it came to the public. After the first floor boss battle, Kirito became known as a Beater, which is the combination of a beta tester and a cheater.

Over the two years of being trapped within the game, Kirito made friends with several people, and became the most powerful Solo Player in SAO. He was so strong, that he was granted access to the unique skill, Dual Wield, which was only given to the Player with the fastest reaction. During his journey, he gained a close relation to Asuna, and they became a married couple in-game. They even adopted Yui, an AI within SAO, as their daughter.

In the end, Kirito deduced that the leader of the Knights of the Blood Oath, Heathcliff, was really Akihiko Kayaba, the creator of SAO. Kirito challenged him to a duel, Asuna sacrificed herself to protect Kirito, and Kirito got himself killed, but not before taking down Heathcliff. Both he and Asuna's lives were spared, and they, along with all the other survivors, left the game.

Three months later, during which Asuna had not woken up, Kirito discovered her within ALFheim Online, and decided to go in and save her. Through his efforts alongside Yui, Leafa, who was really his sister Suguha, Recon, and many others, Kirito made his way to the top of the World Tree, where Asuna was at. They stopped Sugou, who had undergone the name 'Oberon' as his avatar, thanks to Kirito's willpower, and saved Asuna and the three hundred minds trapped in ALO.

Over the next year, afterwards, Kirito underwent many other trials, like stopping Death Gun within Gun Gale Online, where he met Sinon, to claiming the legendary sword, Excalibur, to his trials within the Alicization Project. Overall, Kirito had more than his fair share of troubles and adventures in the online world, but nothing would prepare him for the next set of adventures that were about to bring down upon him.


Donald Duck & Goofy

(Cue Kingdom Hearts OST 'Mickey Mouse Club March')

Donald and Goofy were friends and comrades of Sora in the 'Kingdom Hearts' series, and are deuteragonists within the 'Sword Art Kingdom' series. They are residents of Disney Castle, where Donald is the Royal Magician of Disney Castle, and Goofy is the Captain of the Guard.

In the beginning of 'Kingdom Hearts', Donald discovered a letter that Pluto had from King Mickey, explaining that he disappeared, along with a mission he and Goofy must take. They set out to find the 'key' that Mickey explained by going to Traverse Town, where they met many Final Fantasy characters, along with Sora, who wielded the Keyblade. The three companions worked together to stop the Heartless and Ansem, while searching for Mickey and Sora's friends.

In the end, they defeated Ansem, and stopped him from gaining Kingdom Hearts. They sealed the Door to Darkness where Kingdom Hearts resided in, sealing King Mickey and Riku within, whom they would go search for again.

However, they ended up at Castle Oblivion, where they were tricked and their minds have been manipulated by Organization XIII and Naminé. They finally encounter Naminé, who explained the truth about what she had done, and decided to help them restore their memories back to normal. After defeating the members of the Organization residing in Castle Oblivion, both Donald and Goofy went into separate Memory Pods, where they would fall asleep while their memories were being restored. They would awaken a year later, beginning the next part of their journey with Sora…


Yui

(Cue Sword Art Online OST 'Yui')

Yui is an AI program, and Kirito & Asuna's daughter in the 'Sword Art Online' series, and a deuteragonist in 'Sword Art Kingdom'. She lives with her parents in the New ALFheim Online world, and is their Navigation Pixie.

Yui was created as a Mental Health Counseling Program for the players of SAO. However, the game system, Cardinal, forbid her from interacting with the Players, but only to watch them. As it was against her program, she developed many errors in her program. However, after witnessing the good feelings Kirito and Asuna felt, she wanted to meet them, but at that point, she had amnesia due to errors.

Kirito and Asuna found her and took care of her when she had amnesia. They even allowed her to be their daughter at that point. Some time later, when saving a guild leader, Thinker, she regained her memory and saved her parents thanks to the GM Console. However, because of this, she was about to be deleted by Cardinal had Kirito not turned her into a game object, thereby saving her as 'Yui's Heart'.

When Kirito entered ALFheim Online, his data from SAO transferred as well, and as such, he regained Yui's Heart again, turning her back to normal. Since that, she became a Navigation Pixie, assisting Kirito in saving Asuna from Sugou. She had been going on adventures with Kirito and Asuna ever since that point…


Riku

(Cue Kingdom Hearts OST 'Riku')

Riku is Sora's closest friend and rival in the 'Kingdom Hearts' series, and a deuteragonist in the 'Sword Art Kingdom' series. His home world is the Destiny Islands, where he lives with his best friends, Sora and Kairi.

When Riku was five years old, he was granted the power to use a Keyblade thanks to Terra's Keyblade Inheritance Ceremony. Terra also asked he keep this a secret from everyone.

Ten years later, as Riku, Sora and Kairi were building a raft, Riku accidentally released the Heartless into his world, and his obsession to leaving the islands drove him into darkness. This is why Sora gained the Keyblade instead of him.

Corrupted by Maleficent's words and controlled by Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, Riku turned against Sora, believing he abandoned him and Kairi, who had lost her heart to the darkness. It was later on that Riku came to his senses, protecting Kairi, Donald and Goofy at one point from Ansem before he was fully controlled. It was thanks to Sora defeating Ansem that Riku regained his body again, aiding Sora, Donald and Goofy from closing the Door to Darkness, sealing himself and Mickey inside it.

Later on, he awakens in Castle Oblivion, called upon by DiZ. He endures facing the darkness Ansem planted in his heart while fighting off against Organization XIII. Aided by Naminé and Mickey, Riku defeats Ansem, and accepts the darkness in his heart, knowing that darkness itself isn't evil. In the end, he chose neither the light or the dark, but the road to the dawn, and decides to aid Naminé and DiZ in restoring Sora's memory.

During the year Sora slept, Riku had to deal with the Organization even more, including dealing with Xion, who has some of Sora's memories in her, and Roxas, who is Sora's Nobody. Xion is defeated by Roxas, returning Sora's memories back, and Riku, who had failed to defeat Roxas at one point, ended up utilizing the darkness in his heart, changing his appearance and defeating Roxas, returning him to DiZ, where he would wait until he rejoins with Sora again…


Leafa

(Cue Sword Art Online OST 'Fly Higher and Faster')

Leafa, a.k.a Suguha Kirigaya, is Kazuto/Kirito's cousin in the 'Sword Art Online' series, and a deuteragonist in the 'Sword Art Kingdom' series. She lives with her mother, father and her cousin Kazuto. She is also a descendant of one of the Keyblade Protectors of her dimension.

At a young age, Suguha had no idea Kazuto was not her real brother. She and Kazuto both learned kendo from their grandfather, but Kazuto quit practicing, and after learning he was adopted, he distanced himself from Suguha. He eventually was drawn to VRMMO, and that's what drawn him to SAO. It was during that time when Suguha learned about her relationship to Kazuto from her mother.

At first, Suguha hated VRMMOs, but she later became curious, since it attracted Kazuto. So with help from her friend Shinichi, a.k.a Recon, she entered ALFheim Online, taking on the name 'Leafa', and became one of the strongest Sylph warriors in the game due to her sword skills and her quick adaption to flying. Even after Kazuto woke up, she never told him she was playing the game, though she did have 'more than sisterly' feelings for him, though she gave up after meeting Asuna.

When Kirito entered ALFheim Online to save Asuna, Leafa was the first person he met and saved from a group of Salamanders, not knowing it was Suguha. Leafa guided Kirito and Yui to the World Tree, during which she started to fall in love with Kirito. After a failed attempt to reach Asuna, Kirito and Leafa realized who each of them really were. After a shocking moment between the two, they forgave one another, and Leafa, along with Recon and many Sylph and Cait Sith warriors, helped Kirito and Yui reach Asuna.

Since that time, Leafa had been part of the SAO team, alongside Kirito, Asuna, Yui, Silica, Liz, Klein and Agil, with Sinon later to join. She witnessed Kirito in action during Gun Gale Online, and assisted him in the Excalibur Arc. She and Kirito had closed the gap they had gained since Kazuto learned of his relationship. Now, she was going to help Kirito even more in times to come…


Kairi

(Cue Kingdom Hearts OST 'Kairi')

Kairi is a close friend of Sora's, plus one of the Princesses of Hearts in the 'Kingdom Hearts' series, and is a character in the 'Sword Art Kingdom' series. She lives on the Destiny Islands alongside Sora and Riku.

Originally from Radiant Garden, she was sent to Sora's and Riku's world at the age of four thanks to a magic spell placed by Aqua when her world was overtaken by the Heartless. Over the next ten years, she would become close friends with Sora and Riku.

At the beginning of Kingdom Hearts, Kairi helped Sora and Riku build a raft so they could discover new worlds. When Riku accidentally brought Heartless into their world, Kairi's heart was unknowingly placed within Sora while her lifeless body was sent to another world, only to be found by Riku.

At Hollow Bastion, Sora finds Kairi's body and learns of her fate. Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, explained to Sora that he had Kairi's heart in him all the time, and that was one of the seven Princesses of Heart.

After driving away Ansem temporarily, Sora released Kairi's heart back into her body using the Keyblade of People's Hearts, but he ended up turning into a Shadow Heartless. As Kairi, Donald and Goofy escaped from Hollow Bastion, Heartless Sora followed, and after Kairi recognized him, she freed Sora from the darkness, returning him to normal. After that, Sora brought her to Traverse Town, where she would be safe and protected. And after convincing her to stay there so she could be safe, Sora gains Kairi's lucky charm; her seashell Wayfinder.

After Sora defeated Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, and closed the Door to Darkness, Kairi appeared on a piece of the Destiny Islands. As the destroyed worlds were returning back to normal, Sora promised Kairi he would return once he found Riku and Mickey. Kairi returned to the Destiny Islands, where she awaited Sora's return for over a year…


Recon

(Cue Sword Art Online OST 'Last Flight')

Recon, a.k.a Shinichi Nagata, is a Sylph warrior in the 'Sword Art Online' series, and a character in the 'Sword Art Kingdom' series. He goes to the same school as Suguha Kirigaya, a.k.a Leafa, who he became in love with.

While Kirito was trapped in SAO, Suguha wanted to learn about VRMMORPGs, but she still wanted to keep doing kendo and studying. When she approached Shinichi, he suggested ALFheim online, since it wasn't time-intensive, and it was based on the Player's skills. He then became Leafa's partner and mentor, though she surpassed him in due time.

When Kirito entered ALFheim Online for the first time, Leafa and Recon were ambushed by a group of Salamanders, and Recon ended up being defeated thanks to a stray fire spell and a slice from a dying Salamander. However, it was through this ambush that he suspected the party leader, Sigurd, was a Sylph traitor for the Salamanders.

After spying on Sigurd, he discovered his hunch was right, as he heard him converse with two Salamanders about a Tracer on Kirito and Leafa, plus an attack from the Salamanders on the alliance conference between the Sylphs and Cait Siths which, if all went well, would cause a war between the two races. Before Recon could warn Leafa, he was paralyzed and captured by the Salamanders. So instead, he warned Suguha outside of ALFheim. Thanks to the warning, Kirito and Leafa stopped the attack and banished Sigurd.

Recon escaped and reunited with Leafa at the edge of the World Tree. There, he confessed his love to Leafa, but got punched instead. Later, he joins Kirito and Leafa in the assault on the World Tree. He helps heal Kirito at first, then started drawing in the guardians to protect Kirito and Leafa. He ended up unleashing a powerful Dark-attribute, self destruct spell, sacrificing himself in order to destroy a large number of guardians, giving enough time for the Sylph and Cait Sith armies to arrive and aid Leafa and Kirito, allowing the Black Swordsman to reach the top to save Asuna.

Since then, he was offered as a member of the Lord manor staff thanks to the Sylph Lord Sakuya. While he never played any roles in the future adventures involving Kirito and friends, he would play a big part later on, alongside Leafa, a year later…


Mickey Mouse

(Cue Kingdom Hearts OST 'Magical Mystery')

Mickey Mouse, also known as King Mickey, is the main Disney protagonist of the 'Kingdom Hearts' series, and a character in the 'Sword Art Kingdom' series. He is King of Disney Castle and is a skilled Keyblade Master.

He was originally taught to wield the Keyblade under Yen Sid, another Keyblade Master. However, when he sensed the worlds were in danger, he runs away and uses a Star Shard to travel to other worlds, where he meets the three former Keyblade wielders; Terra, Aqua and Ventus. He forms a friendship with each of them, though Terra only sees him when he left the Mysterious Tower.

When the three students of Eraqus fought against Xehanort and Vanitas at the Keyblade Graveyard, Mickey aids Aqua as they fought Ventus-Vanitas, and defeats him. He then brings Ven's body and Aqua back to the Mysterious Tower. Some time after Aqua left with Ven's body, Mickey thought he failed to help and disappoint Yen Sid, but he instead was promoted to Keyblade Master.

Over the next ten years, Mickey had designed the Gummi Ship in order to travel to Radiant Garden, where he befriended Ansem the Wise and met Apprentice Xehanort.
Before the beginning of 'Kingdom Hearts', Mickey noticed the disappearances of worlds, and left Disney Castle in order to discover what was causing it, along with learning about Organization XIII. He left a note with Pluto for Donald and Goofy to find, which told them to find another Keyblade Wielder, which would be Sora.

Discovering a Corridor of Darkness, Mickey passed through and found the Kingdom Key D Keyblade, which would seal the Door to Darkness. Using the Keyblade, and with help from Sora, Donald, Goofy and Riku, he sealed the Door to Darkness, with him and Riku still within the Realm.

Mickey, still trapped within the Realm of Darkness, aids Riku, who had was in Castle Oblivion, as a ball of light, guiding him until he could reach Riku in person. He eventually frees from the Realm, reaches Riku, and meets DiZ, whom he felt he had met once before. DiZ gives both Mickey and Riku the black coats of Organization XIII to use as disguises.

After Riku defeats Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, Mickey saves him from the darkness, and the two form a strong friendship, even Riku having to call Mickey by name. They leave Castle Oblivion, and the two parted ways at Hollow Bastion when Riku was worried about Xehanort's Heartless still within him, and he wanted to fight it alone.

During the year Sora slept, Mickey had encountered Riku again when he had the form of 'Ansem'. Mickey made a promise never to tell Sora of what happened to Riku when he wakes up again. So Mickey continued to search for more clues on Organization XIII, along with finding Ansem the Wise…


Akihiko Kayaba

(Cue Sword Art Online OST 'Taut Nerves')

Heathcliff, a.k.a Akihiko Kayaba, is the antagonist in the first arc of the 'Sword Art Online' series, and a character and boss in the 'Sword Art Kingdom' series. He was the original creator of the NerveGear and the game Sword Art Online.

He created Sword Art Online with the intention to create an ideal world, free from the rule of the outside world. He had successfully trapped ten thousand Players within the game. Under a disguise, he told them that the only way to escape was to conquer all hundred floors of Aincrad. If they died in the game, or if their NerveGear was removed from the outside world, their brains would be fried, and they would die. Explaining the rules and changing the avatars of all the players to look like their real life bodies, he then leaves them.

He then took on the form of Heathcliff, the leader of the guild 'Knights of the Blood Oath', and was known as the strongest Player in the game. His strength and name grew far and wide throughout the game, given him the title 'Man of Legend', since his health never went into the yellow zone, due to the system protecting him. He also hid the fact that he would be the final boss on the 100th floor of Aincrad.

When Asuna, who was second in command in the 'Knights of the Blood Oath', wanted to leave the guild to be with Kirito, Heathcliff challenged Kirito to a duel. It was through this fight, when Heathcliff's speed increased beyond the system limits to block Kirito's attack, that Kirito suspected Heathcliff's identity. His suspicions were true after the 75th floor boss, and he revealed his identity. Kirito then fought against Heathcliff, with the reward being everyone's freedom from the game. After Asuna sacrificed herself to save Kirito, he pulled off a miracle, and defeated Heathcliff, who spared Kirito and Asuna's lives, and freed them, along with the rest of the Players trapped within.

After the collapse of SAO, Kayaba transferred his consciousness into the virtual world permanently, though killing his real body in the process. He then later encourages Kirito during his fight against Oberon, a.k.a Sugou Nobuyuki, giving Kirito the strength to continue fighting and allowing him access to his old administrator ID, giving him the power to defeat Oberon. After Oberon's defeat and Asuna's return to the real world, Kayaba appears before Kirito, giving him the World Seed as compensation for helping Kirito, then disappeared from him.

While it was unknown what happened to Kayaba afterwards, his consciousness still existed within the virtual world. It was over a year later, when he would be soon discovered where he would be…


Sugou Nobuyuki

(Cue Sword Art Online OST 'Oberon')

Sugou, a.k.a Oberon, is the antagonist of the second arc of the 'Sword Art Online' series, and is an antagonist in the 'Sword Art Kingdom' series. He is also Asuna's ex-fiance, and the chief of RECT Progress, which created ALFheim Online.

His origins beyond his school years were unknown, but he was in the same school as Akihiko Kayaba, whom he considered his rival. He was selected by Asuna's father to marry Asuna, and was adopted into the family. When SAO was cleared by Kirito, he rerouted and trapped three hundred SAO Players, including Asuna, within ALFheim Online, using them as test subjects in researching the ability to controlling and manipulating a person's heart and Soul. It was in ALO where he took on the name 'Oberon'.

He was first seen in Asuna's hospital room, where he taunts Kazuto about marrying Asuna before leaving. In ALO, he trapped Asuna in a giant bird cage, giving her the name 'Titania', as she would be his wife. However, Asuna now saw Sugou's true colors, and refused to marry him, despite knowing she could not escape. Oberon often visited her, taunting and harassing her, though he slipped out the fact that Kirito was alive, giving Asuna hope.

When Kirito and Yui arrived to save Asuna, Oberon used his administrator privileges to pin Kirito down, shackled Asuna and started sexually assaulting her in front of the helpless Kirito. However, thanks to Akihiko Kayaba, Kirito used his administrator ID to nullify Oberon's superiority, producing the weapon Excalibur for the helpless Oberon, setting the Pain Absorber to zero, and effortlessly dissected and defeated Oberon.

In the real world, Sugou attempted to attack Kazuto in the hospital parking lot with a knife. However, due to the pain he had felt in their previous battle, plus the fogginess in his glasses, Kazuto turned the tables, and defeated him, though sparring his life. Sugou was arrested, interrogated, and sent to prison, where he spent for the year afterwards…


Author: Well, that's all the characters that have a big impact to the story.

Sora: What about Xemnas and the rest of Organization XIII?

Author: They all play their part, but they aren't as affected as the thirteen said above, maybe with the exception of Axel and Naminé, but that's about it.

Asuna: So are you gonna explain about what happened after that year, when Sora slept and everything after Oberon's defeat?

Author: I was getting to that!


In dedication to my Fanfiction buddy, Kingdom Cure…

(Shadow the Hedgehog and Xion appear out of nowhere)

Shadow: Here's your world again.

Xion: Yeah, but this isn't my author's studio.

Author: Xion! Shadow! What are you doing here?

Xion: My author sent me to a different world, so Shadow was bringing me back so I can beat up my author!

Author: Oooh, you mean 'Kingdom Cure'. Sorry, but she's several blocks away from here. If you leave my place, and go down the road for four blocks, take a right, then a left, you should meet her.

Xion: Thanks! By the way, are you gonna do anything with me in your stories?

Author: We'll see what happens in the future. Just don't hurt 'Kingdom Cure' too badly, or I might change my mind.

Xion: (sigh) I can't guarantee that I wouldn't put her to the brink of death, but I'll do what I can. Thanks for the ride, Shadow. I'd better get moving!

(Xion races out of the station. Shadow uses Chaos Control to teleport away.)

Author: Say hi to 'Kingdom Cure' for me!


Author: Ahem! Where was I?

Kirito: You were about to give a brief story on the 'Sword Art Kingdom' series, involving both stories so far.

Author: That's right. This is all so others, who haven't actually read the full story, can get the broad picture as to what happens in both 'Sword Art Kingdom' and 'Sword Art Kingdom II: Dimensional Bonds'. So without further ado, let's get on with it!


Sword Art Kingdom I

The story starts with DiZ telling Roxas in the digital Twilight Town to head to the mansion to rejoin with Sora. Ansem-Riku then wonders about a side project that DiZ had been creating, which was to ask for help in another world, mainly the virtual world of 'New ALFheim Online'.

In the other dimension, Kirito and Asuna conversed about a new and unusual quest that had popped up in Aincrad. They decided to work together to take it on, so using their old 'Sword Art Online' avatars (Author note: I know in the anime/manga, they don't get them back in the New ALFheim, so let's just say for the record the two recreated their original characters again a year later), they took on the quest, with Yui at their side.

They entered into the dungeon where the quest was at, and made it to the boss room, taking on the digital version of the 'Guard Armor' Heartless. After defeating it, they activated a program which sent the three of them into a digital wormhole. As it turns out, this quest was placed by DiZ, and the program sent them to his dimension in Twilight Town.

Both Kirito and Asuna entered their own hearts, where they took on a trial that would unlock a new power within them. When they woke up, the two of them and Yui found themselves inside a computer room in the bottom level of a mansion. There, they discovered where they were, and saw they couldn't go back. As they looked around the mansion, they encountered Heartless, and learned that through completing the trial, Kirito and Asuna could now wield mystical weapons called 'Keyblades'. Kirito and Asuna produced their new weapons, Kirito's being called the Oblivion, and Asuna's being the Oathkeeper. With great skills, they defeated the Heartless attack.

After this encounter, they discovered the newly awakened Donald and Goofy, and then they met Sora afterwards. They left the mansion together, and looked around Twilight Town, meeting new people, and discovering where King Mickey was at.

They raced to the train station, where they encountered a swarm of Nobodies, which almost defeated the five heroes had it not been for Mickey's arrival. He gave them a small pouch before leaving them. Kirito and Asuna decided that the only way to figure out what was going on with them was to join Donald, Goofy and Sora on their journey to find their friends.

The heroes departed on a magical train, arriving at the Mysterious Tower, where they met Pete, Maleficent's underling. Afterwards, the heroes went to the top of the tower, where they met Yen Sid, Mickey's teacher. He tells Kirito, Asuna and Yui about DiZ, and his reasons for bringing the trio to his dimension. Afterwards, he explains to the entire group about the mission they were given, along with the enemies they would encounter, such as the Heartless, Nobodies and Organization XIII.

After understanding their mission, the trio were given new garments that would give them powers in their journey. It was at this point that Yui discovered she had data on all the Heartless, Nobodies, Keyblades, and many other things in her, which was uploaded thanks to DiZ when sending the trio through the digital portal. Afterwards, Kirito, Asuna and Yui were introduced to the Gummi ship, and the trio, now understanding their reason for being in the dimension, decided to aid Sora and his friends on his journey.

They went to several worlds, encountering old and new friends of Sora. They were also introduced to the members of Organization XIII, who hinted they had a new member in their also kept meeting Pete, and finally met Maleficent, whom Sora thought was gone. With each world they went to, they unlocked special gates that allowed them to go further and towards new worlds. Such worlds were Hollow Bastion, Olympus Coliseum, Disney Castle, and many others.

Meanwhile, Naminé, who helped restore Sora, Donald and Goofy's memories, called upon Leafa and Recon from ALFheim Online. She explained that DiZ believed Leafa had the gift of wielding the Keyblade. Leafa dove into her heart and unlocked the power to do so. They aided Naminé in the attempt to save Kairi, but Axel, an Organization member, took her instead, with Pluto at their side. Since then, Leafa and Recon trained themselves to be strong enough to help their friends.

After some time, Kirito, Asuna and Yui reunited with Leafa and Recon in Twilight Town, and the two Sylph Warriors were introduced to Sora, Donald and Goofy. They also discovered the new member of Organization XIII; Sugou's Nobody, Gouxus, who came into being (Author: Well, Nobodies don't have beings, but you know what I mean) a week before Kirito and Asuna came to the new dimension, in order to fulfill the mission of the Organization to control Kingdom Hearts.

After Naminé explained he was the main reason the heroes came to help Sora and his friends, the five heroes from the other dimension had an even bigger goal to get to. It was after this that Sora discovered that Kairi was taken by Organization XIII, which drove him even further to finding and defeating the Organization.

After a couple worlds more, the heroes returned to Hollow Bastion, where Leafa and Recon now resided in. After a reunion with Mickey, they learned from him that the previous enemy Sora, Donald and Goofy fought, Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, was not actually the real Ansem, but was a Heartless using his name, and that the Nobody created with the Heartless Ansem was the leader of Organization XIII.

The Organization sent a swarm of Heartless onto Hollow Bastion. Sora, Kirito, and Asuna's crew joining forces with Leafa, Recon, Mickey, and many other fighters residing in Hollow Bastion to take down the swarm, which also resulted in defeating one of the Organization members, Demyx (Author: His somebody later appears in the real world in Kirito and Asuna's world, alongside the somebody of Larxene.).

It was after fighting off three thousand Heartless did Axel, who became a traitor to the Organization, slip out the true objective of the Organization; To have the Keyblade wielders destroy as many Heartless as possible. The Keyblade releases the hearts, which the Organization collects to form Kingdom Hearts. Though this troubled the heroes, they decided to revisit worlds in order to find clues on the Organization's stronghold.

Sora, Asuna, Kirito, Donald, Goofy and Yui visited a few more worlds, during which they defeated another member of the Organization, Xaldin, they discovered that Gouxus had done the unthinkable; He teleported the floating castle of Aincrad into Sora's dimension. The heroes went to work undoing this before the Heartless could do anything to it, aided by friends of Kirito's and Asuna's.

While Sora, Donald, Goofy and two of Kirito's friends went to take down the source that kept Aincrad in Sora's dimension, Kirito and Asuna were reunited with Heathcliff, who challenged them to a duel once more. Kirito and Asuna defeated him, and Heathcliff shed off his avatar, revealing his real identity as Akihiko Kayaba.

Kayaba then starts to tell the truth; He let Kirito defeat him long ago when he saw how his will overcame the system. He also knew they would reboot Aincrad after its' destruction, in which Kayaba had hid himself and some data he saved within the floating castle. What he had saved was actually the data of all the defeated Players when they were trapped in SAO. Kayaba believed that Sora's dimension could have the potential to revive them again. Kirito and Asuna accepted the offer, and added Kayaba to the list of people to be revived again. They stored the data into an orb called 'Aincrad's Soul', and gained the 'Elucidator' and 'Lambent Light' Keyblades.

They reunited with Sora's crew, with Leafa and Recon there as well, who knew how do return Aincrad back thanks to Axel. They succeeded in returning Aincrad back to the virtual world, and the heroes escaped the place before it disappeared, knowing that they had to still take care of Organization XIII.

After a couple more worlds, Kirito finally found the solution to revive the Players; using Tron's world inside the computer, they could use its' technology to bring the Players back to life in reality. The plan succeeded when Tron defeated the MCP, and took control of the system, reviving the near four thousand Players, who currently live in the worlds of Hollow Bastion and Twilight Town.

After the events of Kirito fighting against Sephiroth, Leafa and Recon, along with Naminé and Riku, discovered where the Organization's stronghold was, and how to get there. They left clues for Sora, Asuna and Kirito's group to follow, along with Mickey, towards the World That Never Was, the world where Organization XIII's stronghold was at. It was also here, as Mickey pointed out, that Ansem the Wise, the real Ansem, was at. It was through this that Axel sacrificed himself to save Sora, Leafa and the others from a swarm of Nobodies.

Arriving into the dark world, Leafa went on ahead to help save Kairi, while the others endured their own trouble; Kirito, Asuna and Sora ended up fighting an opponent each within their hearts; Sora fought Roxas, Kirito fought his dark self, and Asuna fought an armored Aqua, who claimed she had a connection with Asuna. After each hero defeated their opponent, they progressed onward.

Meanwhile, Naminé and Leafa rescued Kairi and Pluto, and Riku and Recon aided them in time to fight off one of the Organization members, Saïx. At this point, the five heroes, along with Mickey, arrived inside the stronghold. After Mickey separated from the others, the crew dove further into the stronghold, meeting up with Xigbar, the second member of Organization XIII, and defeated him. They were also reunited with Kairi, Leafa, Recon and Riku, who Sora didn't recognize at first since he looked like Heartless Ansem, but Kairi helped him. At this point, Mickey was reunited with Ansem the Wise, who intended to store Kingdom Hearts moon into data using a machine, so as to prevent Xemnas, the leader of the Organization, from having it.

The crew started taking out members of the Organization, such as Luxord and Saïx, and then Gouxus, who revealed how he came to be there to the heroes. It was through the battle with Gouxus that Leafa gained her new signature Keyblade, Sylphwing.

Ansem the Wise's machine failed to store Kingdom Hearts moon, and as a result, it exploded, making Ansem disappear, and reverting Riku back to his normal look again. However, Ansem was successful in damaging Kingdom Hearts moon, but it created thousands of Heartless in response, to which Maleficent and Pete, who were in the castle, fended off for the heroes while they fought Xemnas.

They arrived at the top of the castle, where Xemnas was at. Sora first fought him on his own. Then, when Xemnas attempted to retreat into the damaged Kingdom Hearts moon, Sora, Kirito, Asuna, Riku, Donald, Goofy, Leafa and Yui followed him and defeated him in there. He disappeared, thought to be defeated.

Thanks to Naminé, a black portal opened up for the heroes, save for Kirito, Asuna, Sora and Riku. The portal closed on the four, and they saw Xemnas in a dragon form, ready to continue fighting. The four pursued on vehicles, and they worked together to destroy the Dragon Xemnas. The group reappeared in another area, in front of Xemnas, who had reached his Final form. After a difficult battle, Kirito, Asuna and Riku combined their powers into Sora's Keyblade, giving him the power to finish off Xemnas for good.

After the battle, the four arrived in the Realm of Darkness, along the shores of the Dark Margin. After a moment of being there, a bottle sent by Kairi before their journey appeared before them, with a letter inside. After reading it, the Door to Light appeared in front of the four, and they escaped the Realm of Darkness, appearing in Sora's world, the Destiny Islands. The other members of their team were there as well, and they were reunited once again.

After they were done celebrating, Kirito, Asuna and their friends from their dimension parted ways with Sora and his friends at Twilight Town before using the program Ansem left for them before he disappeared, allowing them to return home once again. Apart from still being able to wield the Keyblade, everything for Kirito, Asuna, Leafa, Recon and Yui seemed to be back to normal. However, a month later, they got a message with Mickey's emblem on Kirito's laptop, to which they responded on returning back to Sora's dimension once again.

In the Blank Point, it featured the heroes preparation before departing to Sora's dimension, and the conversation between Ansem the Wise and Aqua, who revealed she knew Aqua when she was just a baby.


Sword Art Kingdom II: Dimensional Bonds

The story starts with a mysterious cloaked figure reviving an unconscious Vanitas. He then later seen with Maleficent and Pete, striking a deal with them to aid in his quest to find the doorway to Kingdom Hearts in his dimension, which was the same dimension Kirito and Asuna are from, the prize being that both he and Maleficent would rule each of their dimensions.

Meanwhile, Kirito, Asuna, Leafa, Recon and Yui return to Sora's dimension, where they were reunited with Sora and the rest of the gang, including Kayaba, who had become the chief scientist of Disney Castle. They went there to celebrate the victory against Organization XIII, but after a playful Struggle tournament, new monsters called Unversed appeared in Disney Castle, disrupting the party. Vanitas soon introduced himself to the crew, taunting the group that indicated Kirito's and Asuna's dimension was in danger. After that, he disappeared into a black portal.

Reacting to their hearts, Sora, Asuna, Kirito, Leafa, Mickey and Riku's Keyblades activated, producing a gateway that sent the entire world of Disney Castle into the other dimension. When they arrived, they discovered that Yui's body and clothing had changed, allowing her the ability to fight alongside the others. And so, Sora, Asuna, Kirito, Donald, Goofy and Yui set out on the Gummi ship to find new worlds.

Soon after leaving, they crash-landed in the world of Yusnaan, where they met many new people whom they would become friends with, and Sora, Asuna and Kirito gained a brand new power; The Soul Drive. The new power is similar to their Drive Forms, but instead of the standard forms like Valor, Wisdom and others, they use the power of the Soul Drive orbs they are given by people they share a close bond with, utilizing the same attacks as the souls they have been given. With this power, the group set out to save the worlds from the Heartless and Unversed.

They journeyed to many worlds, where Maleficent, Pete and Vanitas seem to have their sights set on special items called the 'Keys of Darkness', orbs of dark emotions that are within special individuals, including Asuna herself. Along with this, Vanitas continuously targeted Asuna, as she was a target he was going for in his previous life before he went unconscious. This was due to the mysterious connection between her and Aqua.

It was later on in their journey that they discovered Kirito and Asuna's real life world. They were reunited with their friends from 'New ALFheim Online', along with Asuna's father, Shouzou. In the hospital where Kazuto, Asuna, Suguha and Shinichi's bodies were at, the team made a shocking discovery; Asuna was actually adopted into the Yuuki family. Not only that, but based on Shouzou's story, she came from another world. Shouzou returned Asuna the white Wayfinder that came with her as a baby. After a mental conflict, Asuna decided that she wouldn't let this tear her from her family, and to still consider the people who raised her as her family. Her Wayfinder would be considered her new pendant, alongside Kirito's Elucidator pendant and Sora's crown pendant.

Returning back to Yusnaan, where Leafa, Recon, Riku and Kairi were at, the discovered that Leafa was also capable of using the Soul Drive, but she had it inside of her all along, not like Sora, Asuna and Kirito, who were granted its' power. This mystery would soon reveal in due time.

The team continued to go to many worlds, following the trail of Vanitas, Maleficent and Pete, along with the mystery of the Keys of Darkness. It wasn't until back in Yusnaan, during a tournament that the trio of villains interrupted to steal two Keys of Darkness from Snow and Erza Scarlet did they discover what they were for; They could unlock the pathway to Kingdom Hearts. Vanitas' mask also broke, revealing his face underneath.

This was discovered by Lightning and Hope, who learned it from a mysterious Keyblade Master named Gretinal, who also told them how to prevent the Heartless and Unversed from overtaking worlds; By sealing each world's Keyhole of Bond. Each one reveals itself when certain individuals from each world form a special bond. With this knowledge, the six heroes departed once again to each world, sealing the Keyholes of Bond in each world.

Through all the worlds they visited, the heroes understood the different forms of bonds made between people, and each one revealed their individual Keyhole of Bond, sealing the Heartless and Unversed from each world.

After achieving in gaining one of the Keys of Darkness, they were called upon by Keyblade Master Gretinal in her world, the Realm of Arrival. Along with them were King Mickey, Leafa and Kairi. There, they met Gretinal herself, along with her three students; Cypress, Jackson and Latias. Gretinal then told the six heroes, Mickey, Leafa and Kairi all about the history of the Keyblade War that happened in her dimension, along with the origins of the Keys of Darkness, and the ones who created them known as the Keyblade Protectors. She also revealed the identity of the cloaked figure that Maleficent, Vanitas and Pete were in league with; Sugou's Heartless, Oberon.

She then further revealed the truths of how Kirito, Asuna and Leafa were able to wield Keyblades. For Asuna, Gretinal revealed her connection to Aqua; She is Asuna's older sister, but was sent to this dimension thanks to a rift between the two dimensions.

For Kirito, he had the capability of using the Keyblade to begin with, but he had a piece of Terra's soul that broke off thanks to Xehanort possessing Terra's body. Thus, it was through this that when he and Asuna traveled to Sora's dimension the first time, it activated both of their powers to use the Keyblade.

For Leafa, she was one of the descendants of the Keyblade Protectors. Not only that, but her ancestor possessed an incredible power of 'bonding', which explained Leafa's innate ability to use the Soul Drive, and many other things that happened.

After this talk, Vanitas appeared, revealing he knew of Asuna's connection to Aqua all along, which was why he hunted her down before. After a fight against Vanitas, Asuna decided to keep searching for Aqua, now fully aware of what she is to her, and that she would believe they would know each other once they do. This gave birth to Asuna's unique Keyblade, Sisterly Tides.

After sealing the Keyholes of Bonds from many worlds, and obtaining another Key of Darkness, the team arrived at Kirito and Asuna's world again, who's Keyhole had not been found by their friends yet. Reuniting with a few more friends that joined the group at the hospital, Vanitas arrived, unleashing his full strength against Sora, Asuna and Kirito, along with his friends. Although he fought his hardest, he was defeated by the trio in the end.

Shortly after, Oberon destroyed Vanitas and took his powers, revealing that Vanitas was not the real one, but a puppet made by Xehanort. He, Maleficent and Pete took the four SAO/ALO fighter's bodies, escaping to their home base, Desolate Castle. Sora, Asuna, Kirito, Riku, Kairi, Leafa, Recon, Donald, Goofy, Yui, Mickey and Kayaba all pursued them through a portal Kayaba designed, allowing them to reach Desolate Castle.

After reaching the interior of the castle, they discovered that their memories of Vanitas had started to grow fuzzy, and they couldn't remember him. This led to the conclusion of what Oberon might be after; to make others forget the memories of people closest to them. At the same time, Oberon betrayed Pete and Maleficent, sending them back to their dimension again.

Upon arriving in the throne room of the castle, where Oberon was at, they found out what he did to Kazuto, Asuna, Suguha and Shinichi's bodies; Oberon placed darkness into each body, making them resemble the darkness of Kirito, Asuna, Leafa and Recon. The four engaged in a battle against their darkened bodies, dubbed the Dark Puppets. However, they were unwilling to damage their own bodies, so they got easily defeated.

The four were placed in a machine that was suppose to wipe their existence from everyone's memory, including the memories of the four had with each other. It almost succeeded, but Asuna's Wayfinder glowed brightly, bringing her mind to where Aqua was at in the Dark Margin. Giving her words of advice and a new Soul Drive, Aqua Soul, Asuna called out to the other three, bringing them back to their senses and returning back to reality.

The four engaged in combat with their dark selves once again, now fighting back with all they had. In the midst of this, Recon discovered he had become a Keyblade wielder thanks to Leafa and her powers of bonding. The four opened their dark selves to the light, and returned them back to their hearts once again.

The victory was short lived as Oberon took the two Keys of Darkness the team had, and escaped into the End of the World. With the appearance of Gretinal joining the group, the thirteen heroes raced onward, chasing after Oberon into the End of the World.

After pursuing Oberon deep into the world, they finally reached him at the wall of darkness that blocked the path forward to Kingdom Hearts. Sora, Asuna and Kirito engaged Oberon in a tough battle, and defeated him. However, the Keys of Darkness had already unsealed the wall of darkness. However, the built up energy of negative emotions and darkness consumed Oberon and the rest of the End of the World, transforming him into a giant, demonic-like form known as Unversed-Heartless Oberon. Oberon then sent a huge army of Heartless and Unversed at the heroes, determined to snuff out any light in the dimension.

Using the powers of the Keyholes of Bonds, the heroes called upon all their friends from all the worlds they visited, and they fought against the incredibly large army Oberon sent. All of them helped the heroes reach Oberon, and using the Chaos Emeralds from Sonic's world, Sora, Asuna and Kirito entered their Super forms, and took on Oberon.

However, Gretinal warned the remaining heroes that Oberon was being fed by the energy from the Realm of Darkness, making him invincible. They reached the Door to Darkness, where they needed to seal the door from the inside and out in order to stop the flow of energy from being fed to Oberon. At first, Mickey and Kayaba offered to do it, but Recon intruded, insisting on doing the task himself. Leafa downright refused at first, but after hearing her boyfriend's words, and seeing her friends, she let him do it. Together, Leafa and Recon sealed the Door to Darkness, with Recon trapped within.

With the power cut off, Sora, Asuna and Kirito were now able to take down Oberon, who was not gonna give up without a fight. In the end, the trio called upon the light of everyone's heart, giving them the power to unleash their strongest Cross Burst attack, Sword Art Kingdom. With it, they finally defeated Oberon.

With Oberon gone, all the worlds returned to normal, and everyone returned to their respective worlds. The heroes ended up back in Kirito and Asuna's world again, where Kirito, Asuna and Leafa sealed the last Keyhole of Bond, the Keyhole of Love. Afterwards, they said their goodbyes to Sora, Donald, Goofy, Kayaba and the rest of the people from Sora's dimension as they returned to Disney Castle. Sora, Riku, Mickey, Kirito, Asuna and Leafa unlocked the gateway between the dimensions again, and sent the world of Disney Castle back to its' rightful place.

But the journey was far from over, as Gretinal feared that Xehanort might return once again, and the battles with Gouxus and Oberon might unleash a chain of events to come. Therefore, she decided it was time to test Kirito, Asuna and Leafa's abilities as Keyblade wielders, to see if they have what it takes to take on the darkness ahead, and to become Keyblade Masters by putting them through the Mark of Mastery. This moment will happen one month after the events of 'Sword Art Kingdom II'.
