While overseeing the exam with Yen Sid, [[Mickey Mouse|Mickey]], [[Donald Duck|Donald]], and [[Goofy]] are delivered a note by [[Diablo]], [[Maleficent]]'s pet raven, along with the crown of [[Minnie Mouse|Queen Minnie]]. The three rush back to [[Disney Castle]] via the [[Gummi Ship]] and confront Maleficent and [[Pete]] in the castle library, where they are holding Minnie hostage. Maleficent tells them about her first encounter with Master Xehanort and demands access to the Data Worlds, but Mickey refuses, so Maleficent attacks, but a corridor of darkness appears and the [[Eternal Flames]] burst through, one blocking Maleficent's attack and the other distracting Pete long enough for Minnie to escape. Their leverage gone, Maleficent and Pete leave, while out of the corridor of darkness steps Lea himself, who accompanies them back to the Mysterious Tower and makes a shocking request to Yen Sid. | While overseeing the exam with Yen Sid, [[Mickey Mouse|Mickey]], [[Donald Duck|Donald]], and [[Goofy]] are delivered a note by [[Diablo]], [[Maleficent]]'s pet raven, along with the crown of [[Minnie Mouse|Queen Minnie]].

Back in the Sleeping Worlds, Sora and Riku cross paths with the resurrected Ansem and [[Xemnas]], as well as a mysterious young man in a Black Coat with ties to Master Xehanort, all of whom gloat them at every chance. Eventually, once all the seven keyholes are sealed, Sora finds himself in [[The World That Never Was]] instead of the [[Realm of Light]]. He encounters Xigbar and the young man once again.

Eventually, once all the seven keyholes are sealed, Sora finds himself in [[The World That Never Was]] instead of the [[Realm of Light]]. He encounters Xigbar and the young man once again. Trapped in an illusion of Dark City, Sora discovers that the young man is actually [[Xehanort|Master Xehanort]] in his youth, who was visited by the disembodied Ansem, Seeker of Darkness via time travel. [[Young Xehanort]] thus gained the ability to travel through time freely, as Xehanort's Heartless stayed on Destiny Islands for 75 years. Young Xehanort has been going to different periods of time to gather various incarnations of Xehanort and people, who he had high influence on. Sora desperately tries to reach the Castle, but is plagued with illusions of [[Naminé]], [[Roxas]], [[Xion]], [[Terra]], [[Aqua]], and [[Ventus]], leaving his heart more vulnerable. | ||
Eventually, he encounters both Xemnas and Xigbar, who go on to explain that Young Xehanort has been gathering several different incarnations of Xehanort in order to create [[Real Organization XIII|a new Organization XIII]], the members so far being Master Xehanort, Young Xehanort, Ansem, Xemnas and Xigbar. This was the original plan for the first [[Organization XIII]], when Master Xehanort had planned to place a fragment of his own heart inside each of the Nobodies, who were deceived into thinking they lacked hearts in order to ensure their loyalty to Xemnas, but their unforeseen independence, which was demonstrated mostly by Axel, Xion, and Roxas, made his plan impossible to realize. Refusing to become one of Master Xehanort's vessels, Sora battles Xemnas. Though he manages to win, his heart is damaged and he falls into a comatose state, whereupon he is taken to the Castle by Young Xehanort.

Sora falls into the darkness, but his broken heart is enveloped by Ventus's [[Keyblade Armor]]. | ||
Riku eventually arrives in the Castle, where he finds Sora's comatose body floating within a force field. After fighting a [[Anti Black Coat|mysterious enemy]] born from Sora's nightmare, Ansem drags Riku into darkness. He then explains that Riku had been fighting in Sora's dreams all along, acting as a Spirit Dream Eater by destroying the Nightmares within. Ansem, seeing that Riku has accepted his darkness, asks that they join forces. Riku explains that he had initially been doubtful of whether he could rightfully wield the Keyblade after seeing Xehanort lose his own upon becoming a Heartless. Remembering the conversation he had with Terra as a child that spurred his desire to see other worlds, Riku accepts that he can hold darkness in his heart and still be worthy of becoming a Keyblade Master; however, he still refuses to join forces with Ansem. After the two fight, Riku is transported out of Sora's dreams into the true Sleeping Worlds, where he continues to look for Sora. | Riku eventually arrives in the Castle, where he finds Sora's comatose body floating within a force field.

Mickey arrives just in time to halt Xehanort's resurrection by casting [[Stop|Stopza]]. However, Master Xehanort possesses his younger version and thus nullify Mickey's spell. Riku is forced to battle Young Xehanort and manages to defeat him, but Master Xehanort is already formed in his original old body. He then explains his past endeavors to Mickey and Riku, his failed attempt to create the [[χ-blade]] 11 years ago, and his intention of creating the new Organization XIII in order to form thirteen darknesses to clash against seven lights, which will start a new [[Keyblade War]] which will lead to recreation of the χ-blade. Riku and Mickey, restrained by Ansem and Xemnas and unable to do something, Master Xehanort prepares to place a fragment of his heart inside Sora, but Lea arrives on the scene and protects the boy. Master Xehanort retaliates by setting one of the Organization's members on Lea, who turns out to be Saïx. Ansem summons his Guardian, but Donald and Goofy arrive via Mickey's old [[Star Shard]] and defeat it. With his plans temporarily derailed, Master Xehanort retreats with his Organization but swears to Mickey that day of clash between his 13 darknesses and King's 7 lights is near. | ||

Though Riku manages to defeat Sora and free him from the armor, he stumbles into a digital representation of [[Destiny Islands]], where he meets up with facsimiles of Roxas, Ventus, and Xion, and eventually [[Ansem the Wise]], who explains to Riku that he has actually accessed the research data the true Ansem hid inside Sora during his slumber [[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories|a year ago]]. Ansem then asks boy, what is his name, to which Riku tells his name. | ||
