The game takes place after the events of ''Kingdom Hearts II'' and follows the story of [[Jiminy Cricket]], King Mickey, [[Donald Duck]] and [[Goofy]] in [[Disney Castle]]. While organizing the records in Jiminy's journal from his travels with Sora and his friends, [[Jiminy Cricket]]'s curiosity about the line "Thank [[Naminé]]" results in him finding a message that he did not write: "Their hurting will be mended when you return to end it." To investigate this message, King Mickey digitizes the contents of the journal and goes into the simulated world to investigate; awakening a virtual [[Data Sora]] on the virtual Destiny Islands to carry out the contents of the journal to uncover the identity of "their".

Sometime later, Mickey is shown in the [[Mysterious Tower]], informing [[Yen Sid]] that they have located Ventus's heart and have only now to find Terra. However, Yen Sid delivers the shocking news that [[Master Xehanort]] has been revived due to the destruction of both [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness|Ansem]] and [[Xemnas]] at the hands of Sora. Fearing that this time, Master Xehanort will not be working alone, Yen Sid orders Mickey to summon Sora and Riku before him to undertake a Mark of Mastery exam in order to become full-fledged Keyblade Masters and properly combat Master Xehanort.
