Reina blinked lightly as she took a seat, the mouse seemed to be the head of the castle; most likely the King of the world. She glanced around in wonder, she'd never been to a place like this before; yet it seemed so familiar for some reason. The warrior let out a sigh as she made herself comfortable in the chair, her gaze soon switching from Zexion to the small mouse who held a book in his hands.

OOC: "The other two who do this." Nice.

Ame sat quietly in her chair, once again fingering her crystal keychain. Being in a castle was brining up memories of her past. Not the terrifying ones, of darkness and pain and an insane king, but ones far sweeter. Thoughts of a time when she felt whole, when she knew happiness, friendship...even something that could have been love. Ame was the Twilit Key-weilder of Hearts, but her own heart was barren in comparison to what it once was.

"Jaxen, I've finally figured it out! I know how I can leave Hollow Bastion. Come with me...we can go to other worlds, ones without the Heartless, where Ansem can't reach me...." Ame trailed off, but her grey eyes were bright and dancing, and an excited flush lit up her cheeks as she dreamt of a world where she could be free. A smile graced her lips, despite the fact that she knew the Heartless were approaching. But that didn't matter. Soon they would be gone, and she and Jaxen wouldn't have to run anymore. But her smile faltered as she gazed at him. As much as his expression showed that he was happy for her, there was something wary in his eyes.

"Jaxen? What is it?"

"Nothing, Ame. It's just...go on. Find another world. I'm glad you can be free," he answered, making an attempt at a smile.

"But...you're coming with me...Jaxen!"

The feeling of Darkness that the Heartless gave off was drawing closer; they would be here soon. Ame's heart both sped up and slowed down in her newly acquired panic.

"Ame, I can't, I'm sorry...but I still have my family. I can't leave them. I promised."

"I need you! Please...the Darkness inside me...I can still feel it. It scares me. Jaxen, you're the only thing that keeps me balanced. Thinking of you was all that kept me sane when Ansem...when he...." she chokes on her words and blinks back tears. Jaxen wraps his arms around her and hold her close. The prescence of Darkness is more apparent.

"Go Ame. Find your destiny." he pulls away slightly and presses his crystal pendant into her hand. "Keep this close, and it'll help keep you whole."

Shaking her head slightly to clear her thoughts, Ame looked up and glances at Zexion.

"For once, are you going to explain something?"

He raised an eyebrow, leaning back in a chair. "Me? Explain? Like what..." He raised his eyes up towards the large ornate ceiling and smiled a little as two figures walked in...

Donald and Goofy.

Mickey smiled and baded them to sit and they gladly did so. Zexion waved a little. "Nice to see you two again..." Donald nodded to him while Goofy smiled some.

"HEy ZExion!" ( I mean to capitalize those letters)

Zex smiled a little as Mickey sat there and read up on something before he closed the book. "Alright.... now I imagine you all have questions.... I can answer them....most of them... so someone start.." Zex stopped leaning back and sat up as he waited for an answer.

OOC: Other two people... I'm the one who came up with this damned story.... Also, due to a series of unfortunate events I may or may not be around for much longer. With any luck, nothing will happen, but if something does then I have given ya'll the heads up, unlike last time -_-;;...

Ash's left eye twitched slightly at the sight and sound of all these... animals! A dog, a duck, and two mice? He gently massaged his forehead, trying to wake himself from this nightmare, but he soon understood that this was real. He was in the company of a mouse king and his blumbling servants.

God... why me?

He then heard the King speak and close the book. He certainly did have plenty of questions, ones that he was pretty sure the king would be unable to answer. Still, there wasn't any harm in trying... "Why are we here? How was it that we all met up in the same place at the same time?" Ash sighed and cupped his hands around his head. "Who in the world am I...?"

'What a strange bunch of fellows..'

Reina reminiced for a moment before sitting up straight, hands clasped in a simple folded fashion. Her gaze went from one person to the next, this journey was much more different than she had expected. "..And why has the Darkness not yet reached this place?" The warrior finally questions as her wing folded snuggly against her back. Even if this place was unfamiliar, it was strangely welcoming and even with the odd group of creatures walking around; they seemed more comical than dangerous or untrusting.

Zexion smirked as he looked over to Mickey. "Alot of questions there..."

Mickey shot him an odd look then looked down. "Indeed...Well, I suppose we should start from the beginning. This all has relatively to do with a man named Ansem. " He looked up, knowing that this name would ring several bells if not a whole orchestra of them.

"He... is the reason for this darkness, all over. Well, he was the reason anyways. He never meant to do harm, at least, not at first. He experimented with the heart, as you know it to be, and found several ways to manipulate it, but it makes me wonder if it is not manipulating him...I could not answer that myself, because Ansem is nowhere to be found at the moment."

He looked to Ash. "You are all here because your destinies are intertwined. That and the fact that Zexion brought you all here of course. You are all here because you know you serve a greater purpose. As for why you all met at the same place and same time... Well, destiny has an odd way of doing things doesn't it? It's like a woman weaving a tapestry. Everyone has a thread. She just decided that at this time your threads would look best together since you would be together anyways soon enough. Traverse Town is a town of beginnings. Loads of people meet there really. You were all drawn there by each other, to be honest. "

He rubbed his forehead as he continued. "As for who you are...to say the least. I am not the best to answer that. You all need to speak to Ansem. As for where he is I cannot say. I do know who you are, and I know all of your pasts, but it is not my place to tell you that yet. I am sorry."

He looked to Reina now. He stared at her deeply for a moment and then smiled. "Silly girl... the darkness has always been in this place. However, being dark..." He looked to Zexion, who looked down for a moment as if embarassed or was communicating with Mickey somehow through their minds.." Does not always mean you are evil... the heartless are evil, they have not yet come here. Why, is because there is too much good to overpower the darkness."

He turned for a moment asi f staring at something that wasn't there." In order to break into this place... he would have to invade with a rather large force...we are numbering in the hundreds of thousands here... that and I myself erected a barrier between this world and the others. Only those that I wish may travel here."

The little guy is right. You should wait before you know who you are; finding out before you are ready may prove to be quite disastrous.

Oh really? And I'm guessing that you honestly know who I am?

Of course, I know
everything about you. Why else would I stay around here than to lead you to your destiny? Your fate? Your past?

Ash looked at the mouse with curiosity and awe. Despite being such a small creature, he was wise and knowledgable in many aspects. He seemed to understand and know much more than he actually let on, but Ash was not going to push the issue. Still, he wanted to know about his past, about who he really was. Mickey said that he knew who he was, who they all were, and yet he refused to tell them.

"Why? Why won't you tell us?"

The question popped out of his mouth even as he thought it. The small group of people looked at him strangely, and Ash cleared his throat and looked downwards. He had not meant to speak his mind so abruptly and rudely, but one look at Mickey gave him the sense that he was absolutely free to speak whatever he had on his mind.

"Why won't you tell us who we are? You say that you know about us, about who we really are, yet it is not your place to tell us. Why? I have spent my entire life searching for my past. For years I have had countless nightmares and visions that I do not understand. So why, when I have come this far, and have finally found someone who does know about my past, am I still unable to find it out?"

He scratched his head furiously and stared at the king. "All I want are some simple answers to a few simple questions. If you can't tell me who I am, then at least tell me where I can find this... Ansem or whoever he is!"

Something inside of Ash told him that he was being too rash, too rude in the presence of the king, and he honestly knew that. He did not have the right to speak like that to a person of such importance and who had graciously allowed them into his castle. Slowly he sat back down in his seat and lowered his head in shame. "Forgive me, Your Majesty. I did not mean to be so rude..."

"Ansem is unreachable, for the time being," Ame responed sharply, her brilliant grey eyes fixed on the far wall, seeing, but not really seeing. "He sought the Darkness, and he found it." she turned toward the King. "That's right, isn't it? Hollow Bastion was swallowed by shadow when its ruler brought that power into our world." she took a deep breath and closed her eyes. "I remember that day. Only a few of the images I can recall are yet clear, but I remember it nontheless. It was the day I escaped."

Mickey just watched Ash and laughed a little. "It's alright, I understand your behavior..." He then looked to Ame. "Yes... that is right indeed.." He went dark as he sat there for a moment and Zex looked at him oddly.

OOC: Well, looks like the internet at school is being closed down; I may not be able to get on for a while, as in a few days. So, forgive me for once again becoming inactive. Perhaps this won't stay like this for too long. Once again, I'm sorry. Try not to let the story go TOO far, okay? Hehehe... heh...
