This was completely new. Heartless, Nobodies, Dream Eaters, and now Witches. By the way Yen Sid explained on what exactly these Witches were, Riku knew this wasn't something he should take lightly. "Then I'll be off. I'll make sure that Sora gets back safe," Riku said, understanding what kind of task this would be, taking the letter for King Mickey. With a nod to Yen Sid, he departed from the top of the tower, making his way outside. As he headed for the Gummi Ship, he said to Lea and Kairi,"I'll be back." then he went inside the Gummi Ship, setting course for the Disney Castle. Once the Gummi Ship lifted itself into the air, it took off for Disney Castle.

Having a bad feeling about this, Kaika quickly put two fingers on the white bandaging on her leg, and began to focus as much energy as she can. Her eyes darting around for any kind of surprise attack, her breathing becoming unsteady. One more clank of metal resounded, and it sounded closer than any of the other bangs from earlier. Her heightened senses giving her a sudden warning, Kaika had to remove her fingers from her leg and flicked out her hidden blade just in the nick of time. Right after her hidden blade was out, a stake made out of metal sped from above and collided with the small hidden blade, being deflected away from Kaika. "Whatever this is...it's really fast..." she mumbled under her breath, keeping her eye on the metal stake. Another bang, metal stake rebounded from a wall, redirecting itself back at Kaika. Like the last time, she was able to block the metal stake with her hidden blade, but since this stake came with much more force, Kaika was immediately lost her balance and fell to the ground. This metal stake began to rebound on the walls, ceiling, and the floor, but didn't seem to aim for Kaika, who was clearly vulnerable to attack. Instead, this metal stake navigated and aimed itself for Sora, coming from above.
