Ryou loaded a game which was just before the last battle. Sora could do nothing but stare in amazement as he watched himself, on the screen, swing his keyblade and attack. Ryou beat through Ansem, then his ship, and then him on his final form. It was a little long, but Ryou didn't die, at least. He set the remote down, looking to the others. "After this, it's only movies. I think any point from here on would be about where Sora belongs. I'm surprised a portal didn't open before now, though..."
Sora didn't respond. He remembered this! All of it! It was amazing to just watch. Ansem was destroyed, and the next thing he knew, he was watching him, Donald, and Goofy trying to shut the doors. He let out a cry when Riku suddenly appeared, offering to help. The door was shut, and then he nad King Mickey sealed and destoryed it. "And now, Kairi..." He muttered, remembering what happened now. He watched the screen as the details changed and music began to play. He was glad to watch from Kairi's point of view as the island began to grow around her. He had tears in his eyes as she wandered into their cave and found his addition to their childhood drawing. Then, the music and video ended, and credits began to roll.

"Nothing happened." Inuyasha said bluntly. Ryou shook his head. "What? You think it's going to still do something? Look, all it is is a bunch of names."
"These are the credits. After this, there's a short video with Sora, Donald, and Goofy walking through a field-thing, and Pluto pops up. That's as far as I got, since that was where Sora came out." Ryou told Inuyasha, sighing at how long it took to list all these names.
"Yeah! I remember that!" Sora said, brightening. "I had been walking with them, then I tripped and ended up here. So you think the portal will reappear when we get to that point?" Ryou shrugged, not wanting to give false hopes. Sora tensed as he waited impatiently. Then, the video Ryou had described showed up. Sora held his breath as he watched himself and his companions talking. Then... nothing.
Ryou blinked as it showed the game over screen. Nothing had happened. No portal, no anything. He turned towards Sora, frowning a little. "Sora... I'm sorry. We didn't even know if it would work. Don't take this hard. We can just try again later. We'll find a way."

"Maybe, But as far as I can tell, the TV's stop working when a person comes out." Ryou said, leaning back and closing his eyes. A sudden, muffled cry from Sora made him sit up. Another video was starting-- the teaser to the next Kingdom Hearts game. Sora stood in the same field as before, only this time it was night. Words appeared, and then there was a bottle floating in water.
Sora didn't recognize the moonlit beach that appeared, or the cloaked and hooded man who appeared. Then it was a raining city, and maybe the same hooded boy was walking. Heartless appeared, and the boy attacked him with two Keyblades. "Hey!" He exclaimed in shock, watching the fight. "Those are mine! How did he get--" He cut himself off as the boy suddenly looked up the building, and Riku was there. "Riku?!" He gasped, shocked and thrilled at the same time. The boy began to run up the side of the building, killing heartless as he went. Suddenly he threw the Keyblade, and Riku jumped. "No! Riku!"
Before anyone could find out what would happen to Riku, the screen went black. Sora blinked, breathing heavily, waiting for it to continue showing the video. He realized a little too late that it was a portal. He felt Inuyasha's hands on his back, about to shove him in. Suddenly another arm shot out-- Ryou's. Or, to be more precise, Bakura's.
"He can't go in. Not here." Bakura said smoothly, his eyes locked on the screen. "It isn't his time. This clearly shows the future of the game, and Sora doesn't belong. To push him in now would be a large mistake."

Inuyasha let go of Sora and moved forward to do so, but it was too late. A silver-haired boy, wearing a blindfold and a hooded leather cloak, came hurtling out of the television. For a blinded person, he regained his balance quite easily, and was on his feet with very little problems.
Riku had jumped off the building, prepared to seize Roxas's Keyblade and use it to attack the Nobody. Instead of falling as he expected, it was as though his world was turned sideways. The rain stopped, the air was different, and he knew instantly that he was in a different place. But where? Answers could come later. He tensed, summoning Way to Dawn and trying to determine how many people there were. Four... He could smell a large amount of darkness coming from one individual, and that was his target. Only seconds since emerging from the portal, he lunged for Bakura, his blade slicing through the air-- before coming into sudden contact with the person. Riku could hear the crack of bone, which surprised him. Not a heartless?
Sora was too stunned by Riku's sudden appearance to do more but watch as his friend straightened, stiffened, and then suddenly flew at Bakura, his strange new Keyblade swinging down. Bakura held up his arm to guard himself, and the blade practically drove through his skinny wrst. Before Bakura could even have a chance to cry out, Riku had swung again, this time hitting Bakura in the face. Bakura fell to the ground, blood streaming from his wrist and his temple. "Riku!" Sora cried out, getting up and rushing forward, grabbing his friend's wet arm, to stop him from attacking Bakura again. "Stop! That's my friend!"

"Stop!" Rei cried out as well. She quickly lunged foward and pressed on the bleeding wounds that bakura had in hopes to stop the bleeding.

"Sora?!" Riku asked in amazement, resisting the urge to rip off his blindfold and see for himself. But he could now tell, just by his presence-- yes, definitely Sora. Sora let go of his arm, but this time Riku grabbed onto his. "Sora, what are you doing here?! I mean, where is here? Whats going on? Where did Rox--"
"I'll explain later." Sora said, pulling his arm out of Riku's grip. He went over to Bakura and Rei, summoning his Keyblade. "Curaga!" A green glow surrounded Bakura and his wounds healed somewhat-- but not all the way. He frowned, and prepared to do another Curaga. "Cu--"
"Wait." Riku moved forward, as steady as if he could see. He moved and knelt down besides the person who reeked of darkness. "This is your friend?" He asked Sora, tilting his head up as though he was looking at his friend. Sora answered in the positive, and Riku conjured a potion. It was one of his new abilities, he couldn't do it too well, but it would work well enough for wounds, especially those from the Keyblade. he held it out to the other person he knew was kneeling besides the hurt individual. "Try this. Either make him drink it or pour it directly on the wounds."

"Thank you" Rei said. Proping up bakuras head she helped his slowly drink half the potion. She poured the rest over the wounds.

The wounds healed, leaving behind no scars, but Bakura remained unconscious. Inuyasha had moved over quickly, and was glaring at Riku. "Sora, you call this guy your friend?" Inuyasha spat, his golden eyes flashing in anger. "I don't see how a person--"
"Hey! That's not fair." Sora said, quickly defending Riku. "He just arrived here. You can't blame him for being a bit jumpy. He probably... Why did you attack Bakura, Riku?" He asked curiously, looking up at his silver-haired friend, who was still dripping wet.
"I think I'm going to need some things explained to me before I answer that." Riku said, crossing his arms over his chest, getting up to his feet. The person who he had given the potion to was a girl, and completely human, he could tell. The new one who just spoke... it was hard for Riku to tell. He did have darkness in him, but not as much as a monster. "Just who are these people? Where are we? How did I get here-- and how did you get here?"
"Well, we're not exactly sure why we're here. But everybody came out of the TV... except for Rei." Sora gestured towards Rei, then felt awkward when he remembered the blindfold. "Uh... Do you mind taking that off? Why are you even wearing it?" Riku remained silent, his expression unreadable, but he shook his head. Sora sighed. "Well, Rei is right next to you. This is her house. The guy you attacked is Bak-- er, Ryou. He was the first one to come here. The other guy is Inuyasha. There's a little girl as well, but I'm not sure where she is right now."

Sora was the one who mainly explained everything to Riku. Inuyasha was silent, sitting on the couch and just glaring at the newcomer. When he was finished, Riku practically exploded. "What?! You mean you've been here for weeks nad you haven't tried to get home until now?" He snapped, shaking his head, little droplets flying. "Sora, don't you know how much you're needed? How can you be so calm about all of this?"
"I've had time to setlle down. And it wasn't as though I didn't try, Riku! I just knew that whenever a TV was turned on, someone would probably fall out. I didn't want to risk that. But we got out powers back today and I thought it might be different." Sora got up, stretching. It had taken a while to explain everything. "Come on. I want to see how Ryou is doing. Why'd you attack him, anyway?" He began to walk out of the room, towards Ryou's room. Inuyasha had jumped to his feet instantly, and Riku hesitated before following.

The other three guys joined Rei in his room, and Sora frowned when he saw the boy was still unconscious. Riku frowned, moving over to the side of the bed. "Are you sure this is the same guy?" He asked, tilting his head to the side. Sora looked guilty; he hadn't told Riku about the Millennium Item. He thought he should have left it up to Ryou.
"Yeah." Inuyasha snapped. "If you didn't have a hunk of cloth covering your eyes, you'd be able to see for yourself." He stayed in the doorway, leaning against the frame, crossing his arms over his chest. Riku ignored this last comment.
"I don't think it's the same one. The person I attacked... he reeked of darkness. I thought he was a Heartless, or someone controlling them. But this one..." Riku ran a hand through his hair, trying to think of how to phrase it. "He's almost completely made of light."
