''Kingdom Hearts II'' begins where ''Kingdom Hearts | ''Kingdom Hearts II'' begins where ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'' and ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'' left off. Sora and his companions have been asleep for about a year, regaining their memories. When Sora awakens, he eventually arrives in [[Twilight Town]], the place where a mysterious boy, [[Roxas]], lived before he suddenly left. Gaining new clothes and powers, Sora began his journey anew, unaware of the events that have taken place in ''Chain of Memories''. Sora continues his quest by unlocking paths to new worlds, learning of [[Nobody|Nobodies]] and fighting the [[Heartless]], as well as facing the remaining members of the mysterious [[Organization XIII]]. As the game progresses, Sora learns about Roxas and how much they have in common. | ||
The story begins with the player in control of Roxas in Twilight Town. Roxas has dreams of Sora's adventures while increasingly mysterious activities begin taking place in Twilight Town during Roxas's summer vacation. After obtaining the [[Keyblade]] to defend himself from the Nobodies, Roxas comes in contact with a young man in black named [[Axel]]. Axel appears to know Roxas, though Roxas has no recollection of him. Roxas eventually makes his way into an abandoned mansion where a girl named [[Naminé]] informs him that he is a Nobody, although he did not quite know what a Nobody was at that time. Finally, confronted by a mysterious, red-cloaked man called [[Ansem the Wise|DiZ]], Roxas discovers Sora, Donald, and Goofy sleeping in the hidden basement of the mansion. Roxas seems to merge with Sora. As Sora, [[Donald Duck|Donald]], and [[Goofy]] awake from their year-long slumber, [[Jiminy Cricket]], who had previously chronicled the trio's adventures, finds that his journal is now completely blank, save for the note: "Thank Naminé" (which was written by Jiminy himself during ''Chain of Memories''). | The story begins with the player in control of Roxas in Twilight Town.
