Riku finds her first, but she is in a comatose state, with a vacant, lifeless expression and a limp body. She'd lost her heart and because of her Princess status, her body remained untouched by the darkness that usually produced a Heartless. With empty promises by Maleficent, Riku was convinced that he alone could locate Kairi's heart and restore her to health. When inside [[Monstro]], Riku attempts to kidnap [[Pinocchio]] in hopes to use his heart to restore Kairi's. This act confuses Sora as he hasn't learned of her fate. His attempt fails and he is forced to retreat. | Riku finds her first, but she is in a comatose state, with a vacant, lifeless expression and a limp body.

Riku then brings Kairi to [[Neverland]], first bringing her to the clock tower. Sora finally encounters her body, along with a painful reunion with Riku; who is very defensive about her and ends up locking her in a room with [[Wendy]] so that Sora can't get to her. When Sora reaches the room below her cell, he extends his hand towards her, desperately hoping for a reaction as he is just now discovering the full lengths of Kairi's condition. Unconsciously, her hand twitches before going still again, much to Sora's relief. Riku then takes her away yet again, having new knowledge of where Kairi's heart might be. After the defeat of [[Captain Hook]], Goofy ponders aloud whether or not Kairi had indeed lost her heart, but Donald, not wanting to upset Sora, promptly shushes him. Sora, however, appears to be in denial, pondering over his disbelief that he could fly and whether or not Kairi would believe him. | Riku then brings Kairi to [[Neverland]], first bringing her to the clock tower.

Their friendship severed for the time being, Sora continues his journey, destined to clash with Riku in the near future once again over Kairi. Eventually, Sora follows Riku and Maleficent to the world of Hollow Bastion where he too learns of Kairi's fate. However, Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, while possessing Riku, reveals that Kairi's heart has been resting within Sora all along, which explains all the visions he has had of her during his journey. Furthermore, Kairi is one of the Princesses of Heart, a maiden whose heart holds no darkness, and is needed to open the [[Final Keyhole]]. He then attempts to take her heart from Sora, but he defends himself to protect it. | Their friendship severed for the time being, Sora continues his journey, destined to clash with Riku in the near future once again over Kairi.

After winning a fight and driving Ansem from Hollow Bastion, Sora sacrifices himself using the [[Keyblade of heart]] to free Kairi's heart, and is turned into a [[Shadow Form|Shadow Heartless]]. Awakened as her heart is finally restored, Kairi runs towards him, but as soon as her fingers touch him, he vanishes. Refusing to believe that Sora is gone, Kairi prepares to fight the Shadow Heartless that surround her, along with Donald and Goofy. However, once Ansem reappears and Riku's spirit stops him from attacking Kairi, she flees. Devastated, she, along with Donald and Goofy, attempt to escape from Hollow Bastion. But just as they are cornered by the Heartless, she recognizes [[Sora's Heartless]] from the crowd and manages to bring Sora back from the darkness by embracing him and promising to protect him. The group escapes Hollow Bastion, revealed to be Kairi's home world, and find shelter in [[Traverse Town]] where she could be protected by Leon and the others. | |||

Sora finds Kairi in the underground water tunnel after talking with Leon. She states absentmindedly how much this place reminds her of their Secret Place. While lost in darkness, Sora witnessed one of Kairi's memories of her as a little girl wandering around the Hollow Bastion library with her grandmother. Sora mentions this and it is revealed that after her heart was restored, Kairi could remember certain things from her past. Though Kairi wants to help rescue Riku and stop the darkness from emanating, Sora convinces her to stay put, not wanting her to get hurt and also joking that she would be in his way; he also acknowledges that, since their hearts were one, they will always be together. During this conversation, it was revealed that Kairi's voice brought him back from the darkness. Kairi gives in and gives Sora her [[Wayfinder|lucky charm]], which doubles as the [[Oathkeeper]]. | Sora finds Kairi in the underground water tunnel after talking with Leon.

In order to gain control Sora, [[Marluxia]] orders Naminé to use her powers to strip Sora's memories of Kairi and replace them with her instead. However, Naminé knew she could never truly replace Kairi in Sora's heart, and saw herself as merely Kairi's shadow. Kairi's image shows up at Destiny Islands when Sora remembers that the one he holds dear to his heart is Kairi, not Naminé. When Sora is about to go to sleep, Naminé tells him that if he remembers "the one most important to him" his memories will restore faster, so Sora looks deep into his heart and finds Kairi. | In order to gain control Sora, [[Marluxia]] orders Naminé to use her powers to strip Sora's memories of Kairi and replace them with her instead.

Kairi appears in Roxas and Xion's dreams and memories, due to pieces of Sora's memories finding their ways to them. After [[Roxas]] wakes from his coma, [[Xion]] gives him a seashell, and when Roxas puts it up to his ear, he sees a memory that depicts Sora and Kairi on a beach looking at the sunset. Later, in Xion's nightmare, Kairi is seen waking up Sora. Roxas sees a memory of Kairi during a mission in Destiny Islands and remarks that she looks like Xion. And during Xion's coma, she dreams of the time when Sora sacrifices himself to restore Kairi's heart in Hollow Bastion. Kairi is also mentioned by Riku and Xion when they were having a conversation on Destiny Islands. | Kairi appears in Roxas and Xion's dreams and memories, due to pieces of Sora's memories finding their ways to them.

Soon afterwards, Kairi sends [[Kairi's Letter|a letter in a bottle]] out to sea in hopes that it would reach Sora one day, and immediately remembers his name and possibly everything else about him. | ||
One day, [[Axel]] comes to Destiny Islands and tells Kairi to come with him. When she refuses, Axel summons a group of Nobodies, but is saved when she runs off into a nearby portal with King Mickey's dog, [[Pluto]], into [[Twilight Town]] and meets [[Hayner]], [[Pence]] and [[Olette]]. She befriends them, immediately fitting in with the three and going as far as to explain for whom she is searching.
