The '''Hostile Program''' is an executable deployed by the [[Master Control Program]] to destroy [[Hollow Bastion]] in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. It serves as a boss during [[Sora]]'s first visit to [[Space Paranoids]].


==Story==
The {{nihongo|'''Hostile Program'''|危険プログラム|Kiken Puroguramu|"Dangerous Program" in the Japanese version}} is a boss from ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''.
 
Upon realizing the threat of [[Tron]] and [[Sora]], the [[Master Control Program]] had [[Commander Sark]] deploy a special program virus called the Hostile Program. It caused chaos for the computer world as well as the real world in [[Hollow Bastion]]. It somewhat combined the attributes of the [[Strafer]], the [[Magnum Loader]], and the [[Devastator]], though it itself is not a [[Heartless]]. The Hostile Program was the first boss of [[Space Paranoids]]. When the Hostile Program is hit a certain number of times, the outer shell will fall off. It battles largely using lasers. It has three eyes, each similar to the ones Heartless have. 
 
During battle, the Hostile Program moves only in a circle around the room and fires many lasers at the party. After defeating the Hostile Program, Tron gives Sora the [[Photon Debugger]] [[keyblade]].
 
==Journal Entry==
===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
The Hostile Program is found in the [[DTD]] as part of an emergency self-destruct program for the town. While its being loaded into the [[I/O Tower]], [[Tron]] and [[Sora]] face off against it. After Sora confirms Tron helps out Users because they're friends, they work together to fight the Hostile Program. The Hostile Program has its armor chipped away by the attacks until ultimately crashing and being deleted, saving the town.
''An executable called from the DTD dataspace to destroy the town.''


==Design==
==Strategy==
The Hostile Program is large and robotic in appearance. It has a smooth, oval-shaped upper body that is indigo in coloration and lined with light grey and red computer circuitry. Nine red, conical spikes protrude from the upper body, and an opening on the front side of it reveals the Hostile Program's three glowing, yellow eyes, which are arranged in a triangular pattern. A smaller opening appears just below this one.


The Hostile Program's lower body is small, predominantly silver, and lined with indigo and red circuitry. It ends in four small, silver appendages.  
The Hostile Program is quite simple. Collect the clusters which drop until you have maxed out the gauge, then cast the "Freeze" Reaction command. The Hostile Program will then stop momentarily.


This enemy's arms are not attached to its body. Instead, they hover at its sides. The arms are translucent, violet tubes with pink spikes in them. The Hostile Program has grey "elbows" lined with indigo and red circuitry, and both its hands end in three pink, squared-off fingers with black and red circuitry on them.
Switch into your Drive Form and begin unleashing your strongest attacks. A simple strategy would be to use your "Setup" Limit command, as the Hostile Program is quite weak against this attack.


The Hostile Program's name reflects its nature as a computer program tasked with eliminating Sora and his friends.  
Keep an eye on the large clusters that the Hostile Program towards you. It will either collide into you, or rapidly fire several lasers at you. These can easily be avoided, but may outnumber you. Once the Hostile Program has taken enough damage, it will begin to charge around the room several times, so quickly run to the center.
==Strategy==
 
The battle against the Hostile Program is relatively straightforward. Sora must first collect the clusters that drop whenever he attacks the boss until a gauge is filled. He must then use the "Freeze" [[Reaction Command]] to temporarily immobilize the Hostile Program. After a short while, the boss comes to and forces Sora to repeat this process from square one.  
It's second attack is similar to a laser pointer, emitting from it's hands. This attack is slow, but you will need to avoid them. A second occasion is when the Hostile Program sends these beams swarming all over the place. It can be tricky to avoid, so watch the pattern carefully. Try dodging and jumping, although I can't guarantee you won't get hit at least once.
 
If they begin spinning around the room, you need to jump. If they begin to move in a vertical motion, wait until you are able to pass underneath them and get out of it's path. When they start spinning around the room quickly, you might see it as a nightmare to avoid it, but watch the pattern, as you will eventually get the hang of it.
 
Because this battle requires to collect orbs, equip Explosion. This easily increases the amount of orbs that drop.
 
==Trivia==
*The Hostile Program, along with [[the Experiment]] in [[Halloween Town]], [[Hayner]], and [[Riku]], are the only four boss characters in the game who are not Disney or Final Fantasy characters or connected to the Heartless or Nobodies in some way. These characters are located in the journal entries as '''antagonists''', with red squares.


To deal as much damage to the Hostile Program as possible while it is incapacitated, Sora should rely on his [[Drive Forms]] and Tron's [[Complete Compilement]] Limit. The Hostile Program's laser attacks can be avoided with relative ease through a combination of well-timed jumps and dodges, but when the boss starts charging around the battlefield, Sora must run to the center of the area to avoid taking damage. He shouldn't use the Freeze Reaction Command when the Hostile Program charges with Boost and then use Laser, or else it will stay invincible while frozen.
*Hostile Program could not be defeated on early copies of PlayStation 3. Instead of firing lasers, it became invincible. This bug can now be fixed by downloading an update from PlayStation Network.


In the original, PlayStation 2 version of ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Sora can use the Explosion ability to exponentially increase the amount of orbs the Hostile Program drops when hit. A bug in the PlayStation 3's PlayStation 2 emulator causes the Hostile Program to stay invincible, rather than fire lasers. This issue can be corrected via a bug fix available through the PlayStation Network.
*As you fight it, pieces of its armor and body are destroyed, and the final part is its gray central body and claw.
