short and dangerous elevator shaft into the next room. This was the room where Riku and Sora fight for Kairi's heart. Riku remembered it all too well.
The red-haired child could also remember something, here she saw Sora again at the time, only he quickly disappeared again ... she couldn't even hug him. Here Sora became heartless.

Riku and Kairi looked sad, Katari noticed this and immediately asked what was wrong with them because they looked so sad.
But both said that there was nothing. They didn't want to tell the blue-haired child, the past should be left alone before calling up more sad memories.Then all three went on, they went to the portal that should lead them to the keyhole of Hollow Bastion.
Riku stopped right in front of this portal and turned to his friends.
"So ... we haven't found him yet ... are you sure he's here?" asked the gray-haired man.
"We must have just gone the wrong way ..." said Katari.
"But ... there was only one way ... right?" Kairi asked a little uncertainly.
"At least we didn't see anyone else ..." Riku was sure.
"Great ..." Kairi sighed to himself.
Katari sat down somewhere and wondered where she might have been on the first visit ... Was it really Hollow Bastion?

Suddenly only a shadow amphibian appeared right next to Katari, she probably didn't notice him because she was thinking too much and was somehow absent. But the other two didn't seem to notice either.
The amphibian behaved very calmly and smacked around.
After a while, the blue-haired woman noticed it and looked at it, it didn't react.Katari watched the little black thing and after a short time it smiled at the little one with the blue hair.
"What is it doing there ...?" Katari thought "Doesn't it want to attack me?"
Suddenly it plunged into the ground and crawled in one direction, it thundered against the wall and reappeared there.
Katari looked after the thing and waited to see what it would do.
"Does it want to help us? If so ... why?" she thought further and got up. The blue-haired woman went to the wall where the amphibian was already waiting for her. She touched the wall and whispered, "Is there something ...?"
The heartless nodded very slightly and Katari examined the wall, but in vain. Finding nothing conspicuous or unnatural, then she shook her head.
"What are you doing by the wall, Katari?" asked Kairi when she saw the other girl there, then she discovered the heartless one and was startled.

"A heartless one !!" Kairi shouted and Riku saw it right away.
The amphibian disappeared back into the ground, so you couldn't attack it.Kairi ran straight to Katari and pulled her away from there.
"Hey ... what's the point?" asked the blue-haired child loudly and ignorantly.
With enough distance from the heartless, Kairi spoke to her: "Did you know that there was a heartless next to you ?!"
Katari nodded and said: "But he doesn't do anything! At least he did NOT attack me and you!"
"Maybe he was sent to us to lure us into a trap!"
While the two ladies were arguing, Riku destroyed the Heartless with his sword.
"You two stop fighting now! We can't use that now! We have to find Sora and quickly!" Riku shouted to the ladies. Immediately they stopped arguing and were silent.
"Well then ... it works." said Riku softly.
Katari went back to the wall she had already examined.
"Something has to be there ... just what and where?" she thought to herself.
"What are you doing there?" asked Riku and Kairi at the same time.
"That thing had seen something on the wall here ..." said Katari."And now you're looking for it ... aren't you?" the redhead asked again and went to the wall.
Katari nodded silently, Kairi helped her by examining the wall here too. Riku then also helped.

Together they found something, someone had found a secret switch and the wall climbed up, now they had found a new way.
At first everyone was amazed that something like this was here, then everyone went inside, into a new room.
Nobody could even see outlines, it was so dark. Was this the place where Katari was taken? She didn't know herself.
"Is there a light switch here somewhere?" Kairi asked softly. But no one answered her.

Katari stood up straight, both legs right next to each other, she raised her arms and stretched out her fingers completely, now she crossed her arms in front of her head. She closed her eyes and began to mumble something unintelligible.
Kairi and Riku heard this murmur from her and began to ask what she was doing, but she didn't answer, the blue-haired woman seemed to be concentrating.After a few seconds of mumbling, she opened her eyes very quickly and at the same time took her arms down at an angle, everything went very quickly.
A little later the dark room in which the three were straight became lighter and brighter. Now everyone could see something again and Katari grinned totally happy at the other two.
When Riku saw her grin he said: "What do you want to hear now?"
"Nothing, why?" answered Katari and walked a little further and then stopped again and looked around calmly.
"Tell me ... how long does it last?" began to ask Kairi.
"As long as I can take it ..." said the other girl.
"And ... how long will that be ...?" she asked.
"Don't know ... but ... we'll see that, right?" said the long-haired woman and turned back to the others and smiled gently.

Kairi and Riku just nodded. Then all three went on to finally find their boyfriend. But ... who's getting in their way?
Through the light that kept Katari upright, they could only see one type of hood, the face remained hidden."What do you want here?" this guy asked sternly.
"Is none of your business!" Katari said spontaneously before anyone else could say anything.
"Oh ...! Do you want to get Sora out of here?" the hooded person asked.
Our three friends were startled for the first time. Has word got around that you are here?
"I think I'm right there." said the guy with a grin.
"Let us pass right away!" Riku said very loudly, he was almost screaming.
"Tze ... I'm not going to let any children by!"
"Children?!" Katari got upset. They are no longer children!
"Of course! After all, I'm a lot older than all of you!"
"In other words ... an old box without any mind" said Katari annoyed and continued "So let's go right away or ..."

Now the hooded guy was angry, so angry that he stretched out his hands and was surrounded by fire. When the fire went out, he suddenly held a ring of fire in each hand.Due to the fire that was no longer there, the hood flew down and he was no longer unknown.
This redhead looked familiar to Katari ... was it the guy who kidnapped Sora?
Without hesitation, Kairi and Riku picked up their weapons and prepared for the battle that lay ahead.
"Who are you?!" Katari asked immediately.
"Axel ... but soon you will no longer exist!" he shouted and ran towards the three friends.
Katari, Riku and Kairi dodged his attack. Riku attacked Axel immediately afterwards, but the redhead was able to block, so the gray-haired man was thrown against the wall.
"Riku!" Kairi called and looked at her friend, but he no longer moved.
Katari looked over at Riku and said: "He's just passed out, Kairi! We have to defeat Axel, because I can't heal and keep the light here at the same time!"
"Uhhh! We have a little healer here." said Axel and grinned at Katari. Did he know she was the one who had been dragged here before?Kairi nodded to Katari. Immediately she ran up to the redhead and wanted to knock him out, but Axel reacted too quickly and Kairi was thrown against the wall.
Before Kairi reached the wall, she screamed loudly, then she too passed out.

"So much to win." said Axel and looked at the two who were already knocked out.
"It can't end like this ...!" Katari thought to himself "You have to be able to turn it off somehow ... just how?"
Exactly at this moment, the trailer that she had received on the first visit came back to her.
"Exactly ... the trailer ... maybe it will work ..." whispered Katari.
"Well? What is it now? You're so quiet ... Are you giving up already?"
"No never!"
Katari reached into the air and she already had her pendant in her hand.
Axel looked stupid once, after all, he had never seen such a magic trick.
"Oh! You're the one with the trailer. Are you using it against me?" he continued to grin.

Katari just nodded and concentrated on the trailer, but nothing happened ... only the light that Katari was conjuring slowly went out.It was getting darker and darker.
Katari sank to her knees, she could no longer keep the light up.
Axel went to the blue-haired woman, his weapons disappeared. He grabbed her shoulders and pulled her up.
"I already know who can help you use the trailer." he said with a nasty grin on his face.
"Leave me alone!" shouted the little one.
"Oh ... I won't hurt you." said the redhead and slowly disappeared with her.
At that very moment, Riku came to. He had to watch how Axel took Katari with him.
Immediately he jumped up to prevent it, but without success ...
When the two were gone, it was completely dark in the room again.

Does it have to end like this? Will everyone be drawn to the dark side or is there still hope?
