Sora:
There goes our ride...

(Someone is standing at the doorway of the tower)

Donald:
What's goin' on?

Pete:
I sent some of my lackeys inside to see if the master of this here

tower's as big and tough as they say. Word is, he's a real powerful sorcerer.

Which would make him the perfect bodyguard for me. See, it don't matter how

tough he is---once he's a Heartless, he'll do as I say!

Donald:
A Heartless?

Pete:
That's right. They're those things that come outta the darkness in folks'

hearts. Why, with all those Heartless at her side, my dear friend Maleficent is

gonna conquer everything! And since I got me a debt to pay, I'm goin' 'round to

a bunch of different worlds and buildin' an army of Heartless, special for her.

Why am I talkin' to you pipsqueaks anyway? Go on, scram! I'm behind schedule as

it is.

Goofy:
You oughta find somethin' nicer to do.

Pete:
Says who?

(Pete turns around and spots Donald, Goofy, and Sora)

Pete:
Wha...AAAH! It's you!

Donald & Goofy: Pete!

Pete:
What are you two nimrods doin' here!?

Donald:
What are YOU doing here?

Sora:
You know him?

Goofy:
We sure do! Pete's been causin' trouble for ages! His Majesty banished

him to another dimension a long time ago. I wonder how he escaped.

(Pete laughs)

Pete:
You wanna know how, eh? Well, Maleficent busted me out, that's how! And

now your world---no, no, no, all the worlds---are gonna belong to yours truly.

Cause Maleficent's gonna help me conquer 'em!

Sora:
Maleficent...huh.

(Sora, Donald, and Goofy giggle)

Pete:
What are you laughing at!? Why, Maleficent's power is so great---

Sora:
She's toast!

Pete:
Huh?

Goofy:
Sorry, but Maleficent can't help ya now.

Pete:
Whaddaya mean!?

(Donald snickers)

Pete:
You! So you're the ones that did it!

Sora:
Well...we mighta had something to do with it.

Pete (angry):
Heartless squad! Round up!

(Some shadows come out of the ground. Sora conjures his Keyblade and fights

them)

Pete:
You just wait! Nobody, and I do mean nobody, messes with the mighty Pete!

Sora:
So, "mighty" Pete, who lives in this tower, anyway?

Pete:
Oh, ya don't know, eh? Well, it's old Yen Sid. 'Course he's probably a

Heartless by now!

Donald:
Master Yen Sid lives here!?

(Donald runs up the steps and into the tower)

Goofy:
Yen Sid is the King's teacher!

Sora:
Wow. Sounds powerful!

(Sora and Goofy then run up the stairs, leaving Pete and his dropped jaw

hanging. They ascend the stairs until they reach the top floor, fighting

Heartless along the way.)

Donald:
Heartless, Heartless, Heartless! Things haven't changed one bit!

Goofy:
Well, it's a good thing we're on the job, then.

Sora:
So the worlds aren't at peace after all?

(They reach the Sorcerer's Loft where an old wizard is sitting at his desk.

Donald and Goofy bow to him)

Donald:
Master Yen Sid! It's an honor!

Sora:
Hey there!

(Goofy and Donald are slightly shocked at Sora)

Donald:
Sora! Show some respect!

(The wizard calms Donald down)

Yen Sid:
So, you are Sora. Now then, have you seen the King yet?

Goofy:
Yes, we did, Master. But we didn't get a chance to talk to him.

Yen Sid:
Yes...the King has been quite busy of late. Therefore, it would seem

that the task of instructing you three falls upon my shoulders. You have a

perilous journey ahead of you. You must be well prepared.

Sora:
You mean...we have to go on another quest? I was looking forward to

finding my friend Riku, so we could go back to the islands.

Yen Sid:
Yes. I know. However, everything in your journey, Sora, is connected.

Whether you will find your way home to the islands... Whether you will return

alone or with your friend... And, whether or not the islands will still be

there. And the key that connects them all is you, Sora.

Sora:
I'm...the key?

(Sora holds out his hand and the Keyblade flashes into it)

Yen Sid:
Chosen wielder of the Keyblade! You are the key that will open the

door to light.

(Sora nods. Yen Sid looks to Donald and Goofy who quickly stand up straight and

nod. Yen Sid waves a hand over the table and a thick book appears. He makes it

float into the air and spins it toward Sora. It opens and lands at the edge of

the table)

Yen Sid:
This book contains valuable knowledge you will need for your journey.

Study it carefully. Once you have finished, we will speak of the enemies you

will surely confront.

(Sora reads the book)

"The Beginning" - Each journey gives rise to chance encounters, and each

encounter brings forth a farewell. When a farewell leads to a journey, the

worlds open their hearts. Those chosen by the light, or ensnared by darkness.

Friends who share the same bonds, though their paths may differ. When you doubt

the path trod thus far, when the hand you held is lost to you, gaze anew at the

heart that once was...for all the answers are within.

"Interlude" - A long dream. A sad farewell, hanging in the air in that "world

between". What is reality? What is illusion? The path chosen by the young boy

leads to his memories. When caught in the stream of the days and nights going

past, gaze anew at your steps...for there all confusion will end.

"The Future Story" - Will the day come when this battle, born of confusion,

will end? It is different things to different people. Can the reality be that

which is hidden? The reason is mere existence. Still, memories can be believed.

Be not afraid. Entrust your body to the soothing waves of your memories. By and

by, your fleeting rest will be over...and everything will begin.

Sora:
But wait a sec---how come the Heartless are still running around?

Yen Sid:
Your past endeavors did prevent an immense effusion of Heartless from

the great darkness; make no mistake about that. However, the Heartless are

darkness made real---and darkness lingers yet in every heart. The Heartless are

fewer. But while darkness exists in a single heart, it will be difficult to

eliminate them.

(Sora, Donald, and Goofy sigh)

Goofy:
Gawrsh, that must mean...if everybody's heart was full of light, them

Heartless'd go away!

(Yen Sid nods)

Yen Sid:
Now it is time to speak of the enemies that you will encounter.

(Yen Sid waves a hand and an image of Donald appears near the wall. This image

then changes to a Shadow Heartless)

Yen Sid:
If one such as you, Donald, yields to the darkness in their heart,

they too will become a Heartless. But you know this. The Heartless are always

lurking and ever seeking to capture new hearts. Never let your guard down! Now

then...

(Yen Sid waves his hand again and an image of a Dusk Nobody appears next to the

Shadow)

Yen Sid:
At times, if someone with a strong heart and will---be they evil or

good---becomes a Heartless, the empty shell they leave behind begins to act

with a will of its own.
