---Sora53: I know you're sick of me now, ever since that crazy party...

Fans: She's sad because Sora didn't dance with her.

Sora53: Joe and Corita are bonding now, ever since they danced at the party...they're just friends, though. Corita might go crazy if anything else happened...

Fans: That's so sweet! .

Sora53: Meh. Not much else to say...

Sora: SORA53! Want to dance?

Sora53: -dies from happiness---

Disclaimer: For the final time, I don't own anything but Corita. I suppose I own the Fans and Joe, however...

Ansem, having already defeated about 50 times by the group, was very weak. However, he still managed to pull himself away from the wreckage of the ship.

"It is futile." He whispered when he reached their level in the air. "The Keyblade alone cannot seal the door to darkness."

With obvious effort, Ansem turned towards the giant, gleaming door. "Kingdom Hearts!" He shouted. "Fill me with the power of darkness!"

As he spoke, the door slowly opened a crack, and darkness began to creep out of it.

"Supreme darkness..." Ansem continued as the darkness moved towards him.

"You're wrong." Sora said softly. "I know now, without a doubt...Kingdom Hearts...is light!"

The darkness that had been creeping towards Ansem suddenly vanished. In its place, shining right from Kingdom Hearts, was a bright ray of light. It struck Ansem straight in the chest, and he gasped with pain.

"Light...but why?" Ansem whispered as the light consumed him. After several moments, the light grew suddenly brighter, and Ansem was surrounded by it. He was swallowed by the light, and the beam of light grew dimmer until it faded.

"Come on!" Sora said to his friends as he flew to the stone platform in front of the door.

"What now?" Corita asked as they landed smoothly on the stone surface.

"We push!" Sora said as he ran towards the door.

Donald and Goofy took one side of the door; Sora and Corita took the other side. The door creaked very quietly, but it barely moved at all. After about a minute of pushing, Goofy peeking into the door, and let out a gasp.

"Stop staring and keep pushing!" Donald growled, but curiousity got the better of him. Four heads peeked into what the door concealed.

"The Heartless?!" All four of them cried, and they quickly went back to pushing. Inside the door, thousands, maybe millions, of Heartless monsters waited.

"Hurry!" Donald shouted as they continued to push the door.

"I can't..." Sora said, still shoving hopelessly at the door.

"Don't give up!" a voice rang out, echoing in the darkness. A hand suddenly appeared on the outside rim to the door. The glove was oddly familiar...

"Riku?" Corita gasped in suprise as she looked up from pushing.

"C'mon, you guys! Together we can do it!" Riku said from the inside of Kingdom Hearts.

"Okay!" They said as they continued with their pushing. They persisted with shoving the door, but even with Riku's help, the door barely moved a few inches.

"It's hopeless!" Donald cried after several more minutes.

Suddenly, a bright light shone out from behind the crack left in the door. Goofy and Donald peeked inside, and they cried out in glee. Sora and Corita looked inside as well, and saw a mouse perched on one of the strange stone formations inside Kingdom Hearts.

"Your Majesty!" Donald and Goofy called out in happiness.

King Mickey turned for a moment, and then he held up a second Keyblade. It was identical to Sora's, except that the gold and silver were reversed.

"Now, Sora! Let's close this door for good!" Mickey said as his Keyblade gleamed in the darkness.

"But-" Sora started, but couldn't find the words to finish.

"Don't worry." Mickey said, as if reading his mind. "There will always be a door to the light."

"Sora, you can trust King Mickey!" Goofy said as he looked up from pushing.

"Now! They're coming!" Riku cried as he looked back at the swarming Heartless.

"Donald, Goofy, thank you." Mickey said as he turned to face them before the door was closed.

Riku turned away from King Mickey and the Heartless to look Sora in the eye.

"Take care of her." He whispered as Sora looked up at him.

Sora nodded, and he gave the door one final push. The door closed, and they stepped away from it. Sora lept back and held up his Keyblade, and light gathered at the end of it. Inside Kingdom Hearts, Mickey was doing the same. The light surrounded the door, pulling it in...the door to Kingdom Hearts slowly vanished, and Riku and King Mickey were lost.

The four of them stood in silence for a moment, absorbing what had happened. Sora turned sadly away from where the door had been, and he caught a glimpse of red hair. Not turning to look at his friends, he ran off towards Kairi. Donald tried to follow, but Goofy and Corita held him back.

"Let them be alone for a minute." Corita said to Donald as he stood next to them, watching Sora run off in the distance.

"Kairi!" Sora called out as he reached the edge of the stone platforms. Kairi was standing on a different platform, which was still attatched to the stone one.

"Sora!" Kairi said, slightly suprised as she moved to the edge of the platform. Suddenly, the area rumbled loudly, and the two platforms on which they stood began to move apart. Kairi reached out for Sora, and he grabbed her hand.

"Kairi! Remember what you said before? I'm always with you, too. I'll come back to you. I promise!" Sora cried over the rumbling of the platforms.

"I know you will!" Kairi answered, just before their hands slipped apart.

The platforms were too far apart for them to hold each other's hands, but they still looked to each other. The darkness had begun to vanish, and the night sky twinkled above them, empty and bare.

Suddenly, behind Sora, there was an eruption of stars. Thousands of tiny rays of light shot out from behind him, and they moved towards the sky, finding their place in the heavens. Behind Kairi, huge palm trees and sandy beaches shot out from the ground, as well as bridges and houses. Kairi wheeled around to look at this for a brief moment, and then she looked back up at Sora. He was almost entirely engulfed in light. He was shouting something, and Kairi strained her eyes to hear what it was, but he was too far away, and being swallowed by light. Finally, he was engulfed in it, and Kairi couldn't see him anymore. The light at the edge of the ocean began to fade, and a single tear ran down Kairi's cheek as she smiled.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------

The sun beat down on the Destiny Islands, as it did every day. Kairi walked the path she and Sora had walked often, on their way to the Secret Place, nestled in the trees. Kairi bent down and entered the Secret Place, where it was nice and cool. The wind made an odd whistling noise in the room, and Kairi walked along the wall, looking at the pictures she, Riku, Corita, and Sora had drawn so long ago. Her fingers, which had been moving along the wall, suddenly stopped. She was staring down at the picture Sora and she had scribbled long ago. They had drawn each other that day, but Sora must've come back and drawn something else....

She could almost see him there, scribbling it...she reached out to touch his smiling face, but he vanished... More tears rolled down Kairi's cheeks as she drew a paupu fruit moving towards Sora, as he had drawn one moving towards her.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------

"Well, now what do we do?" Donald asked sadly as they moved up the winding rode. The sun shone brightly and the wind blew gently on their path, where they were walking. There was nothing but a long, tan path, a few trees, and endless plains of grass.

"We've gotta find Riku and King Mickey." Sora answered as they walked.

"But, uh, where do we start lookin' for that there door to the light?" Goofy asked.

They slowly stopped walking, and thought for a moment. Sighing, it was obvious that they had no clue where to start.

"Huh?" Corita said, looking up again. "Isn't that Pluto?"

Sora, Donald, and Goofy looked up again as well. Pluto was walking across the path with something in his mouth.

"Hey, Pluto. Where have you been?" Goofy asked.

"Hey!" Donald cried, pointing at Pluto's mouth. He held what appeared to be a note.

"Gawrsh, that's the King's seal!" Goofy cried, pointing to the small green symbol on the note.

"Hey, have you seen King Mickey?" Sora asked, bending down to ask Pluto. Pluto, instead of answering, lept away and began running up the path.

"Well, what are we waiting for?" Corita said.

"Let's go!" Sora said as he lead the group, following Pluto.

They started up the path, following Pluto. The path was long and twisting, but it lead up a hill. Surely, over the hill....

"Remember, Sora." A voice said in his ear, the all-too familiar voice. "You are the one who will open the door to the light."

"Sora? You okay?" Corita asked, who had caught up to him.

"I'm fine." He said, shaking his head to get rid of the voice now that he was talking to someone.

"I guess I was wrong." Corita said, looking up at the sky.

"What do you mean?" Sora asked.

"On the Gummi Ship. I said our journey was almost over." She said, turning back to him with a smile. "It's only just begun."

Sora returned the smile, and they looked back at Pluto, who was still running ahead, leading the way to their next journey.
