Chapter 1: Sora's New Groove

"Hey…"

Seeing the gathering of his trusty Dream Eaters set his mind at ease. He needed this. He did just fail a pretty important test, after all.

"Thanks. You're the best."

After giving up a little TLC to his favorite Meow Wows, Kooma Pandas, Halbirds, etc., Sora noticed the gathering of Dream Eaters began disappearing in quick poofs, one by one. Confused, he said, "Hey, wait! Was it something I said?"

"Nope, kiddo, you're fine," said a voice unknown to him.

"Who's there?" Sora called out, taking a defensive stance.

After the last Dream Eater vanished from existence, Sora noticed a man in a black coat approaching from the first district's giant double doors. Summoning his Kingdom Key, he barked, "Here we go again!"

"Hey, now! I'm not a hostile," said the man in the coat. "In fact, I came here looking for a quick chitchat. With you."

Sora didn't like being unable to see people's faces. "Then what's with the hood?"

"What can I say? My face is a total secret."

Puzzled, Sora asked, "Okay…can you tell me who you are?"

The mysterious man stopped five meters in front of Sora. Chuckling, he said before taking a sip from his Starbucks coffee cup, "Why don't you just call me…Kingdom Hearts."

Sora cocked his eyebrow, squinting as he said, "Really, 'cuz the name on that cup says, 'Master of Masters'."

Apparently foiled, the Master of Masters cursed, "Ah, for cryin' out loud…. Fine I'm the Master of Masters, and I came looking for you because I have a favor to ask…"

Relaxing a bit, Sora dismissed, "Sorry, but I'm on a really tight schedule." And with that, Sora continued his business.

Catching up to Sora, the Master of Masters articulated his proposal, "Look, I know you're looking for the power of waking! I see it in you—and I can harness it!"

Sora stopped midway up the stairs. "How did you know I was looking for the power of waking?"

The Master of Masters replied, "Those two loudmouths, Yen Sid and Mickey, have really loud mouths. Ever since you left the tower, they've been prattling on about how you failed your exam. And what irks me is the fact that it's their fault you failed in the first place. I mean, think about it…" The Master of Masters went on, "It was their idea to send you into this world of dreams, and behold, it was rigged to trap you."

Bothered by all this logic, Sora reasoned, "If you're trying to say they plotted against me, don't waste your breath. It was Xehanort and his flunkies who messed with everything."

"True, but even you deserve a little quality control when it comes to these tests."

Pausing in thought, Sora then asked, "Just what is it that you want?"

"To test you, Sora. To grant you the power sleeping within. All you've got to do is one thing for me…"

The Master of Masters held out his hand, summoning forth the almighty ꭓ-blade, but it was incomplete, missing pieces and faded in color.

"Recomplete this ꭓ-blade, I will let you wield its power."

Seeing it with his own eyes, Sora recalled what Yen Sid discussed about this devastating weapon, "The ꭓ-blade…? Isn't this supposed to unlock Kingdom Hearts?"

"Ding-ding-ding!" chanted the Master of Masters. "You're right—it's supposed to do just that, but look at how incomplete it is. This thing couldn't unlock a barn door in its current condition. That's why I need you to find a way to recomplete it."

Shaking his head, Sora rejected the proposal, "That's too much power. I don't want it."

"Really, Sora? With a weapon like this on your side, you and the other six lights will actually stand a chance against Xehanort. Then, when you're done with him, you can give it back to me. C'mon, Sora. This is true power, something you desperately need right now."

His Keyblade felt heavy in his grip. Due to the events of his exam, his body had been feeling weaker than usual. "I did lose a lot of power."

"That you did, and it's time you reclaimed what rightfully belongs to you. How else are you gonna defeat Xehanort and his goons? This is your chance, Sora!"

"There's gotta be another way!" Sora was becoming severely tempted, especially after the Master of Masters said:

"I'll be with you every step of the way. To recomplete the weapon, efforts on both our parts will be needed. And once it's finally in tip top condition, the power to vanquish Xehanort will be given to you. So whaddya say?"

"Master Yen Sid will want to know about this," said Sora, shiftily looking off to the side.

"Yen Sid? You think Yen Sid's opinion makes the world go round, don't you?"

"Well, he is a master…"

"Yeah, but I'm the Master of Masters. Yen Sid and that mouse king, they answer to me. Tell me something, can you feel darkness coming from me? Or maybe you're like Riku. Can you smell any darkness?"

"No, not really." Sora didn't drop his guard. "But you could be tricking me. Why do you need my help?"

"We need both each other's help, Sora. Look, I peeped the results of your exam, and I gotta say, I'm a little disappointed." The Master of Masters held up an index finger. "Not in your performance, but in Yen Sid's governance of the exam. You're the Keyblade's chosen one, and he picks Riku? Put it this way. I wouldn't trust this power to anyone but you, Sora. Now, will you please take the ꭓ-blade and help me restore its power?"

Sora chuckled. "I can't believe you're saying 'please.' Must be really desperate."

"You have no idea, kid. Once it's been recompleted, I'll take it back but leave you with the power of waking, thus making you a Keyblade Master in old Yen Sid's eyes."

The brown-haired boy shook his head. "You're wrong if you think the exam got to me. I'm happy for Riku, plus I'm determined to gain back my power. But I'm not about to trust someone who's got the ꭓ-blade!"

The Master of Masters sighed. "That's a fair point. Anyone wielding this thing's got to be dangerous." He sighed again. "Forgive me, Sora, but I need this from you."

The Master of Masters held the ꭓ-blade high above his head. It began shimmering in Traverse Town's night air, causing deep trepidation in Sora's heart.

"What are you—?" was all the boy could utter before a great light overtook his body.

The Master of Masters began disappearing from where he stood. He said, "Trust me, Sora. You won't regret it."

Sora began floating in place, spreading his arms and legs involuntarily. His face scrunched up as bright lights blinded his vision, also feeling his hair and clothing tussled by an unseen zephyr.

When the lightshow finished, Sora dropped back down on the stairs of Traverse Town's first district, feeling slightly bulkier than usual. Looking at his hands, his eyes trailed downward to see bulging forearm muscles, along with larger biceps. Right then and there, he'd just noticed his locks of spiky hair had grown longer, covering most of his face.

Moving some spiky locks behind his ear, Sora uttered in a slightly deeper voice, "What in the…?"

"Well, well, well! Look at you!" said the Master of Masters' voice. "Someone just got a little bit older."

Sora went over to the door's window of the Accessory Shop, taking in his slightly altered appearance. His face was a bit longer, his body more defined, and even his hairstyle more exaggerated. Turning back around, Sora had to try something. Making a motion to summon his Keyblade, he gasped at the arrival of the ꭓ-blade in his hand.

"Whoa…"

"Take it all in now, Sora. We've got work to do!"

"Right. So how do I recomplete this thing?"

"Beats me."

Sora nearly fell over backwards. "You don't know?!"

"Hey, I've never done this sort of thing before. I was hoping we'd find out together."

"Ugh. Where are you, anyway?"

"I'm in your heart. Let me know if my voice is too loud. I can always turn it down."

"Never mind that. I don't even know where to start!"

The Master of Masters gave his analysis, "The ꭓ-blade is made up of twenty different parts, right? Thirteen dark and seven light. I've already tried breaking it down to see which pieces are lacking, and believe me, it's all there. What I did find out is that there are seven levels to recompleting it. Right now, the ꭓ-blade is at level one."

Sora shrugged. "Well. I know one way to level up."

-X-

Sora was laying the smack down on some enemies in the second district. The Nightmares there were pretty strong but no match for the ꭓ-blade. After cutting down the last Nightmare, Sora wiped sweat from brow and said, "I can get used to this!"

"Slow it down. The ꭓ-blade's power is unchanged. We must be doing it wrong."

"Maybe we just need to find a stronger enemy?" Sora suggested.

"My thoughts exactly. We should look for Chernabog."

"Cherna-who?"

"The big devil guy you fought in your first adventure. He's strong enough to truly test the ꭓ-blade."

"Okay. Which way is he?"

Suddenly, a white portal opened before Sora.

"Through there."

-X-

Chernabog was literally in the middle of sprucing up his volcano house when adult Sora showed up, brandishing his newly acquired weapon with little to no mercy in his eyes. In response, Chernabog spread his wings and roared into the heavens.

"I remember you," said Sora fiercely. "I hope you're ready!"

Riding the wind, Sora flew forward and slashed for the devil's face; anticipating this attack, Chernabog blocked it with his claws, countering with more wild claw swipes. Narrowly avoiding getting torn to ribbons, Sora dodged and closed in on Chernabog's face again, this time scoring a hit on the giant's cheekbone. Dark smoke sprayed from the wound, angering the winged demon.

Sora then blocked three more claw swipes, then taking cover as Chernabog surrounded himself with a column of flames. Returning to the fight, Sora sliced upward along the demon's chest, exposing more dark smoke. Raising his weapon high into the air, the adult hero summoned a meteor from the heavens, raining it down upon the demon's head.

With Chernabog effectively stunned, Sora readied his ꭓ-blade and dashed forward, slicing straight through the giant's chest. Chernabog's very form began deteriorating into endless smoke, letting Sora know the battle was over.

With a thumbs up, Sora asked, "How was that?"

"Negative," said the Master's voice. "ꭓ-blade's no closer to completion."

"So, I just defeated him for nothing?" Sora was in awe.

"He'll be back next Tuesday. Sheesh, I wasn't expecting this to take so long…"

"Well, don't blame me! You should've had a plan before dragging me into this!"

"Point taken. You know, we Keyblade wielders used to have a saying: 'May your heart be your guiding key.' Maybe we should let our hearts decide our next move?"

"I guess it couldn't hurt," said Sora, a little unsure of himself. Holding out his ꭓ-blade, he summoned another portal that led to Kingdom Hearts knows where. "Here goes nothing."

-X-

"Summoning Keyblades is like summoning magic. One must have poise and total dominance of the dark arts…"

Merlin's spiel about summoning Keyblades was beginning to irk Kairi and Lea, both of whom hadn't been able to call forth their weapons all day.

"I thought it was all in the flick of the wrist!" Lea complained, flicking his arm sillily..

"No, no, no—you must be deliberate! You're summoning a Keyblade, not slapping a turkey's bottom!"

"Geez," Kairi moaned, actually working up a sweat. "Isn't there some sort of shortcut to doing this?"

"Absolutely not. Well, maybe. I'm not sure, really."

Suddenly, Sora's portal opened, revealing the fully-grown man with the ꭓ-blade in his hand. In his deeper voice, Sora said, "Whoa, where am I? Is that you, Kairi?"

"Who—who are you?" said Kairi, backing away slowly.

Drawing his trusty chakrams, Lea barked, "Whoever you are, get lost! We're training, here!"

Startled, Merlin inquired, "How on earth did you get here? This place is sealed away by magic."

Recognizing Sora's clothes and blue eyes, Kairi said, "Wait a minute…Sora?"

Surprised, Sora asked, "Do I really look that different?"

"What happened to you?" Kairi asked.

"No way that's Sora," said Lea, eyeballing the grown man standing across from him.

The enchanted forest they were training in was indeed sealed by magic, but it apparently didn't apply to Sora's portals. Confused by all this, Merlin asked, "Sora, do you care to explain yourself?"

Taking one step closer, Kairi looked him up and down, face turning slightly red. "Did you…did you get older?"

Thinking of one possibility, Merlin inquired, "Oh, dear. Was this some side-effect of my magic?"

"No, you didn't do this, Merlin. You see, there was this guy who had the ꭓ-blade. He offered it to me in exchange for a favor. And somehow, taking it turned me into a grown man."

Lea smirked. "Well, who would've known. Sora's almost as cool-looking as me, now."

"Hey, I resent that…"

Merlin pressed on, "Wait, what was this favor he asked of you?"

Holding out the incomplete ꭓ-blade, Sora explained, "He wants this to be whole again. Once I've done that for him, he says he can restore my lost power."

Lea said, "Great. So, how do you do it?"

Shaking his head, Sora admitted, "We don't know yet. But when I followed my heart, it took me here for some reason."

Kairi piped up. "First thing's first. You need a new outfit."

Indeed, Sora's drive uniform was a bit small on him. Chuckling, he asked, "Think I should pay the fairies a visit?"

Merlin said, "Nonsense! I can have you draped in new apparel with a flick of the wrist!"

"Really, you don't have to do—"

It was far too late to protest; Merlin had already targeted Sora's clothing with a new outfit spell that transformed his clothes into a wizard robe.

"Uh…" Sora wasn't feeling the new look. "Do ya have anything less wizardy?"

"Hm, I suppose something else will do. How about this?"

Merlin zapped Sora's outfit with another burst of magic, this time giving him an outfit reminiscent of Xehanort's look.

"Now, I look like the bad guys," said an unamused Sora.

"Fine." With another zap, Merlin finally changed Sora's outfit into something becoming of a Keyblade hero.

Retaining the same black, yellow, blue, and red color scheme of his drive uniform, Sora's outfit consisted of black and yellow shoes, black and blue long pants, and a long black coat with the sleeves rolled up. His chiseled chest was exposed, overlapped by crisscrossing straps affixed to either side of his jacket. Aside from the color scheme, his crown necklace and gloves were the only pieces inherited from his original outfit.

"Not bad," Lea gave his props.

"I've really outdone myself," Merlin patted himself on the back.

Meanwhile, Kairi's face was only turning redder and redder.

Oblivious, Sora said, "Thanks for the new threads, Merlin. But I still need to figure out how to recomplete the ꭓ-blade."

"I'm afraid I can't help you with that, Sora," said Merlin. "Now if you don't mind, I have students to train."

Lea bemoaned, "Oh, give us a break! We've been at it for hours—or minutes? Who knows how time moves in this friggin' place."

"Oh, I suppose a quick break is in order. Kairi, Lea—how about some tea?"

"Now, we're talkin'," said Lea.

Merlin guided them, "Back to the cottage, it is!"

Nodding, Sora said, "I'll leave you guys to it."

"Wait…" Kairi said that. Ever since Sora showed up, she'd been unable to avert her gaze. Without a moment's hesitation, she declared, "I wanna talk with Sora. About the exam. You two go on ahead."

Beaming, Merlin replied, "Suit yourself, but try not to let the tea get cold."

Winking, Lea said, "Yeah, Kairi, don't let the tea get cold."

Blushing deeper, Kairi turned back to Sora and said, "Let's walk."

"Sure thing," said Sora.

-X-

"I heard about what Xehanort did to make you fail your exam. I feel so bad."

"Don't feel that way—at least Riku passed."

"Right, Riku…"

They'd been walking and talking through the forest, side-by-side. That's when Kairi stepped out in front of Sora, giggling in face as she said, "What am I going to do with you?"

"What do you mean?" asked a puzzled Sora.

"You and Riku were supposed to become Keyblade Masters together. Now, you're lagging behind with the rest of us."

"Sheesh, you don't have to rub it in!" said Sora with a laugh.

Then, Kairi put her hands on her hips and stated, "You need to be taught a hard lesson."

Sora felt himself admiring Kairi's pose. The teenaged girl always knew how to flaunt her curves. In that moment, he felt the need to do something more. Taking her by the hand, he replied, "You're the one that needs lessons."

Squeezing Sora's hand, she whispered, "I know more than you think."

Sora decided to spin Kairi around, and thus, they started slow dancing, laughing, and having a good time. With her arms around his neck, Kairi blissfully embraced her dance partner, unwittingly pressing her pelvis against his.

In response, Sora grew aroused, and, with minds of their own, his hands began venturing south. Kairi took one of her hands to his bare chest, feeling every striation. That's when their noses brushed against each other.

Behold, Sora went in for the kiss, and it was returned warmly. They kissed again, this time, deeper with endless affection. Sora cupped her modest butt with both hands, holding her taut body tight against his own. As they continued to make out like the amorous teenagers they were, Sora felt his manhood taking up more and more real estate.

Apparently, Kairi felt this phenomenon occurring in Sora's pants as well, for she gasped slowly, "Oh, wow…"

Realizing what he was doing, Sora pulled away. "Kairi—I'm sorry! I just—I don't know what came over me."

But Kairi wasn't having any of it. "I didn't say stop."

For whatever reason, Sora's heart burned upon hearing those words. Taking her around the waist again, he shared another intimate kiss, this time, utilizing his tongue. Kairi wrapped one leg around him, and it was then that Sora noticed the abundance of moisture between the girl's legs. Kairi was soaking wet through her panties.

She reached down for his manhood, feeling it out through the fabric's thin lining. Briefly looking over her shoulder, Kairi spotted something in the distance and directed her lover, "Over there. Follow me."

Both lovers ventured over to a waterfall, where Kairi stopped and sat on a boulder. A little short of breath, Sora simply stopped and stared as Kairi began undressing.

Unzipping her pink dress, she exposed her white undergarments, also removing her shoes. And so, she sat there, giving Sora the most salacious look possible.

Sora returned the facial expression with one of his own. He crossed his arms and said nothing, waiting for Kairi to take off more clothes. She, however, had other plans.

Standing up in just her white panties and blouse, she saunters over to Sora, delivering kisses to his exposed chest. Sora finally got the picture; undressing himself, he removed his long black overcoat and gloves, standing shirtless before his redhaired lover.

Kairi ran her hands over Sora's developed muscle structure, feeling his abs, pecs, and obliques while kissing one of his nipples. Without warning, Kairi took one of Sora's hands and invited it into her wet panties, letting him caress her feminine opening.

Sora felt vaginal juice collect along his fingertips; locating that special orifice, Sora plunged two fingers inward, listening to nothing but her sweet cries of joy and the adjacent waterfall. With his other hand, he reached up her blouse and began massaging one of her swells. Effectively multitasking, he watched in bliss as Kairi's eyes rolled back.

Unable to control herself, Kairi found her hands unbuckling Sora's pants. After sliding his black trousers downward, Kairi's eyes lit up at the sight of his penis hanging in the breeze, and she immediately went to work with it.

She got down on her knees. Taking Sora's swollen member in one hand, she rubbed it against her face a few times before inhaling into it, then kissing it. Finally, she took it against her tongue, closing her mouth around the tip. Moving her head up and down, Kairi made sure to slick every inch of Sora's throbbing member.

After Sora got his fair share of oral pleasure, he got a bright idea. Locating a cavernous area right next to the waterfall, he took Kairi in his arms and carried her up to that point. There, the ground was slippery but flat enough to lay on. Before getting down to serious business, Sora removed his shoes and trousers, watching closely as Kairi removed her blouse and panties. Finally freed from his clothing, Sora allowed his nude lover to lay on top of him; he planted kisses on her neck as she did the same to him. Once again feeling her butt, Sora couldn't help but admire the soft muscle tissue that made up her exquisite derriere.

However, just as he was about to guide himself inward, Kairi made an executive decision to initiate a sixty-nine position. Now laying on Sora with her face to his cock and her ass to his face, she began another round of fellatio while Sora performed cunnilingus for the first time. He immediately fell in love with her taste, sacrificing oxygen to deliver the pleasure.

Both teens began moaning in ecstasy, the sound of the waterfall accompanying their cries. Sora's tongue proved he could perform well under pressure; Kairi's hips bucked from the nonstop prodding. In response, she cupped his scrotum and began intensely stroking the shaft of his manhood while concentrating her mouth on his tip.

Due to this high volume of oral stimulation, Sora had to pause and focus on the sound of the waterfall. He wanted her now more than ever; grabbing her by the breasts, he propped her to an upright position and sat her down on his face. Now tonguing deeper than ever before, Sora listened to Kairi scream in sweet agony. With her bare feet planted on the slippery ground, she began bouncing up and down on Sora's face, gasping and screaming louder and louder.

Unable to believe he was capable of dishing out so much pleasure, Sora simply wished this would last forever. After all, he had yet to round home plate.

"Omigod, Sora!"

Making a feast out of her pink matter, Sora stroked his cock a few times, something Kairi noticed. It was then that Kairi rose up from Sora's oxygen-deprived head, positioned her pussy over Sora's manhood, and invited him inside.

It was a slow intake; seeing as how Sora's penis was much bigger than a tongue and two fingers, they had to take it slow here. Kairi found herself on the brink of tears as most of Sora's hardened cock went in. She chose to be on top, so she initiated the ride, bouncing slowly at first.

Just as their eyes met, neither Sora nor Kairi could believe this was a thing. They'd waited so long, and it was finally happening.

"You're beautiful."

The words came out of Sora's mouth on their own accord. Kairi kissed his lips, neck, and chest in response.

Both sweaty and naked in the waterfall's cave, they upped the pace of their sex, initiating sounds of skin-on-skin contact. Sora gripped her miniature midsection, forcing his cock deep inside her sweet walls. Kairi screamed again, but she didn't skip a beat.

However, Kairi was going to need a break soon. Letting Sora's member exit her opening, Kairi leaned back and played with her clit, breathing like a bitch in heat.

Sora smirked at her current condition, knowing he was about to put her through even more saccharine punishment. He got up and turned her around, putting her on all fours and spreading her legs. After pressing a deep arch in her back, he positioned his cock before her vagina and started hitting it doggie-style. Sora watched as he created ripples in the creamy skin of her booty, hellbent on making a tidal wave.

Kairi screamed louder than before, taking Sora's aggression like a champ. He continuously fucked her, briefly slowing it down to drive it in methodically. Kairi's back was so toned, he wondered if he should go harder and faster…

However, his thoughts were nullified as Kairi began fucking him back with newfound strength. Here, their skin-on-skin contact resonated throughout the small cavern, almost completely overshadowing the waterfall.

Now it was Sora's turn to take a break; leaning forward, he lightly fell overtop Kairi's back, gripping her breasts once again. Planting kisses on her ear, he didn't know he could be so in love with someone's body like this.

That's when Kairi turned around to lay on her back, begging him to hit missionary. Sora obliged, sprawling over Kairi's naked body to rub his tip against the base of her clit, caressing it for its abundant juices. And so, he plunged inside, utilizing the force of a Keyblade Master to love her until her eyes rolled back.

"Oh, Sora…"

Ignoring his aching muscles, he fucked her like his life was on the line. Speaking of lines, he could see that finish line coming, but crossing it now was not an option.

"I'm coming!" Kairi cried. "Don't stop!"

Whatever, she came a long time ago, but he wasn't concerned about that. About that finish line, though? It was coming whether he liked it or not.

"Oh—here it comes!"

Sora pulled out and immediately shot his load on Kairi's tits, even reaching her facial features.

"AH! AH! Ah…"

Suddenly, light engulfed the area, and the ꭓ-blade showed itself; floating above their heads, the ꭓ-blade shined next to six other neon silhouettes of itself. One of the six silhouettes began glowing brighter than the rest, spinning around until merging with the real ꭓ-blade. After this phenomenon occurred, the ꭓ-blade changed in appearance. Instead of sporting rustic metal, the blade portion actually looked a lot cleaner than before.

"What the hell?" Sora uttered.

Still lying there with Sora's seed on her naked body, Kairi echoed, "What was that?"

Gasping, Sora finally understood. "I get it now! To recomplete the ꭓ-blade, I've gotta…well, I just did it. The Master of Masters was telling me it comes in seven levels." Taking the ꭓ-blade in his hand, Sora surmised, "This must be level two."

"Bingo!" said the Master of Masters' voice.

"Hey, where have you been this whole time?" Sora asked, definitely freaking out his nude partner, who definitely couldn't hear the Master's voice.

"Sorry I had to leave! While you were getting all horned up with the princess, I noticed the Keyblade's power increasing at regular intervals. I didn't want to say anything, lest I ruin your chance. But lo and behold, having sex, or more specifically, achieving an orgasm, restored some of its power."

"This is great! All I have to do is have sex with Kairi a few more times, and we're home free!"

"Uh, Sora?" Kairi asked.

"Not so fast," said the Master of Masters' disembodied voice. "Kairi doesn't know this, but the ꭓ-blade just drew a ton of power from her. You won't be able to achieve the same effect until she gets her power back."

"Aw, man," Sora seemed really bummed out about that. "How long is that gonna take?"

"Um, Sora?" Kairi asked again.

"Hard to say. But chin up, kid! I did a lot of research while you were gettin' laid. You might've noticed Kairi was acutely attracted to your new body. That's because the ꭓ-blade actually gave you a Lust Aura, meaning girls are gonna be all over you."

"So, how's that gonna help?" Sora asked.

"Dammit, Sora! What's the matter with you?!" Kairi suddenly shrieked.

"Oh, I'm talking to that guy who gave me the ꭓ-blade. He's inside my heart right now."

Deflating a bit, Kairi scoffed and said, "Of course, that's your answer."

The Master of Masters continued, "Think about it, Sora. The ꭓ-blade gets more powerful when you have sex with girls. You have a Lust Aura, making girls attracted to you. All you have to do is find more women to sleep with!"

"But…" Sora held a sheepish grin. "I kind of like having sex with Kairi."

While Kairi blushed, the Master said, "Don't be foolish, Sora. True power knocks at your door, and you're worried about one girl? Hmph…maybe that's why the Keyblade chose you. Well, it's your choice. You can either wait for Kairi's power to return, or you can go on the prowl. I won't judge."

"Hm…" Sora sat with his arms crossed.

Kairi kissed his neck. "Don't leave me hanging. What's happening, now?"

Sighing, Sora said, "We need to pay Naminé a visit."

"Um…what?" Kairi was incredulous.

"Naminé?" the Master repeated. "That might be difficult. She doesn't have a body, remember?"

"Right…" Sensing Kairi's rising confusion (mixed with a little fury), Sora addressed the situation, "The ꭓ-blade draws power from girls I have sex with. I'd do it with you again, but you've already lost too much power. So…"

"So, you have to find another girl," Kairi finished.

"Yeah."

They sat in silence, but only briefly.

"I'm going with you."

"Are you for real?" Sora asked.

"Someone's gotta make sure you get your power back." Kairi smiled. "Besides, I wanna see you talk to girls!"

Sora smiled back. "Sure thing, but you should know something…"

"Oh, no! You're not gonna tell her about the Lust Aura, are you?" the Master of Masters suddenly interjected.

"What happens if I do?" Sora asked, much to Kairi's annoyance.

"No clue. In fact, tell her! Let's see how she reacts!"

Sora turned back to the princess. "Kairi…the reason we just had sex is because…it's hard to explain."

"Sora," Kairi said, taking his face in both hands. "We had sex because I love you. And nothing can change that."

Sora didn't know what to say to that. He thought about telling her the truth but couldn't bring himself to say it. His feelings for her were mutual, so much so that he said, "Kairi, you're the best."
