Katari was pulled through the portal by a stranger, when she was pulled through it, she passed out.
Later, when she came to, she didn't know what had happened or where she was. All she knew was that she was lying on the floor, which wasn't exactly warm. The blue-haired child got up slowly but surely and looked around.
She saw nothing but darkness, but she could hear someone, or rather, many, whispering. Panicked, she looked around again and asked loudly: "Is anyone here ?!"
But nobody answered. The child looked around once more, but through the darkness she could see absolutely nothing, she couldn't even make out outlines.

"Hey you funny hoodie !! Where are you ?! Show yourself !!" screamed around, then she could hear a loud laugh.
She turned in the direction where the laughter was coming from.
"Who ... who is there?" asked Katari.
"You are a little quieter now ... are you scared?" said a stranger with a slight laugh.It wasn't the one who brought her here, the voice sounded totally different, it sounded pretty rough.
"N ... no ... I'm not afraid. Who are you and where am I here?" answered the little Akashita.
"My name is not important. Your ability is much more important." he said with a grin what you couldn't see in the dark.
Katari was confused and asked, "Ability? Which ability do you mean?"
"The one that is hidden deep within you ... but you need something else, namely a certain pendant, then you can use this rare ability. Nobody from here can use it ..." said the stranger.

"So ... do you want to help me use these and in return I should help YOU, about whom I know absolutely nothing ... am I right?" said the little one.
"Yep, you're right. So ... are you going to do it?" he asked very sternly.
"Hm ... don't know ..." Katari mumbled softly.
She wasn't so sure if she should help him, after all, she didn't know this guy. Besides, with all of this, she didn't feel so good."Think about it for a while. You have enough time. Here, I'll give you this because." and he gave Katari a pendant.
The pendant was round and shone a bit, but the pattern that was above could not be seen, it was much too dark for that.
"What ... should I do that now?" asked Katari ignorantly.
"That's the trailer ... there aren't that many, so better take care of that thing or you'll be sorry." said the guy and then went away.
"Then I'll be sorry? Is that supposed to be a threat?" she asked with a slight grin. But no one answered, she felt quite alone.

The girl must have waited a few minutes in the hope that she would get an answer after all, but she stood here in vain. She still held the trailer a little in her hand and took a few steps forward, but then she grabbed something by the shoulder and let her stop.
"Not that long ... go in the opposite direction." said one guy, that was exactly who brought her here."Why should I go the other way?" she asked and turned around. But he was gone again.
"HELLO ?! May I get an answer again ?!" shouted Katari angrily.
But it didn't help, it seemed as if no one was here but her.
The only daughter of the Akashita family sighed and then just went out.

She kept going without taking a little break. It felt like an eternity when she suddenly went against it somewhere. The child hit his head badly and fell backwards. Katari was on the floor, but she was still conscious.
"Ouch ..." she mumbled softly and stood up. "Why can't I still see anything ...? Where am I actually here ...?"
She went to the wall where she had bumped her head and felt her way along.

"Do you think it was good to leave her alone?" asked the guy who brought her.
"Will we see in a minute ... right?" replied the other who gave her the pendant, grinning."But ... what if she finds out what we're up to?"
"Do you doubt my plans?" he asked angrily.
"No, no ... I would never do that Diz ..." the other guy said spontaneously.
"Well, I hope so for you too."
Then the still unknown guy bowed and then went out through the next door. Diz immediately took out a medium-sized black ball. If you looked more closely into this, you saw Katari walking along it.
Diz laughed a little and said: "So far everything has been going like clockwork.

A short time later, another type of cowl came to Diz. But there was one difference to this one, his face wasn't covered. His hair was quite spiky and fiery red, but his eyes were emerald green. Below his eyes he had two red inverted tears, one on each side.
"What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be somewhere else entirely?" Diz asked annoyed.
"I already did the job, it was child's play to attack HIM." said the redhead with a smile on his face.But Diz raised an eyebrow and said: "You can do it that quickly and you are successful? Where is he? I want to convince myself of it."
"Gladly, he's trapped in the cellar."
"WHAT ?! AXEL ARE YOU SPINNING ?!" Diz yelled so loud that Axel's ears hurt and before Axel could say anything, Diz had stormed out.
Axel didn't quite understand what was going on with Diz, he didn't know anything about the child who was wandering around here somewhere.
He looked around Diz 's room and found this black ball. The red-haired guy dared to look inside and saw her. A little frightened, he put this thing back and now understood what was going on with Diz and hurried quickly into the cellar.

When Diz and Axel arrived in the basement, Katari wasn't there yet.
"You were lucky again Axel ..." Diz said a little more quietly to Axel.
"I haven't been told she's here yet!" Axel defended himself a little louder.
Diz then took one of his fingers and put it on his own lips and said: "Be a little quieter ... it could already be around here."Axel nodded and went into the cell where someone was lying. He had brown spiky hair and some black clothes. He didn't react because he was asleep or unconscious, you couldn't really tell, only Axel knew what was going on with this boy.
Axel picked him up and put him on his shoulder.
"Tell me ... what did you do to him?" asked Diz Axel.
"Oh ... he's just not knocked out anymore," said Axel with a grin, "My training hours are just paying off."

But at that moment someone thundered against Axel and fell to the ground.
"What am I running against now ?!" shouted a girl and got up immediately.
"Well, you still can't see anything?" Diz asked with a slightly questioning look.
"That voice ... that's the guy from before !!" she just thought to herself and shook her head.
"Well ... then you will probably never find your way out of here ..." said Axel "and we had to come here because of the little brat? Ridiculous ..."
When the child heard this, the anger rose in her even more, she was already angry anyway because she was constantly running into it.Now she concentrated and closed her eyes, exactly at that moment, Axel, with the boy on his shoulder, took a few steps away.
"Where are you going ... redhead? And ... who are you carrying on your shoulder?" she asked with a questioning look.
Axel stopped and wondered with Diz what she was saying.
"Before I was blind and now suddenly I think I can see everything ... right?" said Axel who just turned to her.

The girl opened her eyes and said: "You are absolutely right! It is enough for me to be here, especially because I SEE NOTHING! So ... either you lead me out of here or I find the exit myself!"
"You brat! Do you know why he is knocked out ?! He didn't want to come here, so now think about what I'll do with you if you just want to get out of here!" Axel got upset.
"Calm down, Axel ... the little one won't find her way out here on her own, that's why she walked in the wrong direction." Diz said calmly."So that one thing is clear, my name is not brat, little girl or whatever! My name is Katari and it stays that way!" she screamed again.
"Tell me ... do you actually know who we are? Certainly not ... otherwise you wouldn't talk to us like that ..." Axel calmed down.
"Tze ... we don't have time to talk to her ... we still have something to do." said Diz.
"To do? What to do?" asked Katari.
"None of your business, little brat!" Axel hissed when she asked the question.

Diz already went in a different direction and said: "Axel, you can argue with her later, come now before he wakes up!"
Axel did not hesitate long and followed Diz, both of them leaving Katari alone again.
The child got upset, but it didn't help, neither of them came back. So for better or for worse she had to go off on her own again, at least that's what she thought.
"If you want to get out of here, then I can help you." said a Qatar rather familiar voice. She didn't know who he was, but this guy who just appeared out of nowhere had brought her here."Who are you and where did you take me?" Katari really wanted to know.
"Well ... I'll explain it to you ... but not a word to the others here, will you?"
The girl nodded.

"You are here in the middle of the darkness of Hollow Bastion. Diz wanted you to come, but I have no idea why, so don't ask first, it probably has something to do with the pendant he gave you. And because of the question of my name, I will not answer you, you will probably have to answer this question yourself. " said this stranger with a smile on his face.
"Hollow Bastion? Never heard of it ..." said Katari.
The stranger laughed a little and opened another portal, but this time it was a little different, it was no longer as dark as the previous one he had opened.
"Now go through this portal, it will take you to Traverse Town, there you should speak to Goofy, Donald, Kairi and Riku, they will surely be able to help you."
Katari didn't quite understand everything, but she didn't have time to ask either because this guy pushed her into the portal.The blue-haired child lay there unconscious again, but this time she was in Traverse
