Late in ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'', [[Sora]] becomes a [[Heartless]] for a short time, before being restored to his human form. In ''[[Kingdom Hearts coded]]'', '''Sora's Heartless''' becomes a separate character, a digital entity created from the journal record of Sora's time as a Heartless. This Heartless serves as the main antagonist of the game and the source of the [[Bug Blox]]. Unlike other Heartless, Sora's Heartless held onto its feelings, memories, and selfhood, and this unique trait is commented on by others.

After Sora, Donald, and Goofy track Riku down to the Great Hall, they learn that he has used the incomplete [[Keyblade of heart]] to summon the Keyhole of Hollow Bastion. He reveals that Kairi's lost heart has been within Sora all along, and that it must be released in order to complete the Keyhole.<ref>'''Riku''': "It’s no use. That girl has lost her heart. She cannot wake up...The Keyhole cannot be completed so as long as the last princess of heart still sleeps...Yes, and without her power, the Keyhole will remain incomplete. It is time she awakened...But first, you must give the princess back her heart...Don’t you see yet? The princess’s heart is responding. It has been there all along. Kairi’s heart rests within you!...So, I shall release you now, Princess. Complete the Keyhole with your power. Open the door, and lead me into everlasting darkness!"</ref> He attempts to release Kairi's heart by using the Keyblade on Sora, but Sora parries at the last second, and he eventually defeats [[Game:Riku#Riku (Keyblade)|the possessed Riku]].

When they first enter [[Castle Oblivion]] and learn of its alleged power over memories, Goofy reassures Sora by reminding him that he did not lose his memories when he became a Heartless. Axel later explains to Larxene that this strange trait is what interests him about Sora.

At the end of Sora's journey through Castle Oblivion, the witch Naminé puts him to sleep so that she can reconstruct his memory, which she had tampered with under coercion from [[Organization XIII]]. All of the contents of [[Jiminy's Journal]] are removed, a side-effect of the record of Sora's Heartless beginning to assert itself.

One year later, [[Roxas]] dreams of when Sora was turned into a Heartless, as well as when Kairi restored his body. Not long afterward, Roxas reunites with Sora, and Sora reawakens as a complete being, no longer a Heartless.

As a symptom of the secrets that were hidden within Jiminy's Journal, a digital version of Sora's Heartless comes to be and, like Data-Sora, it evolves into something more than a simple facsimile. To that end, the Heartless absorbs both the [[Bug Blox]], which spread throughout the Data Worlds, and the minds of the slain digital Heartless, increasing its power exponentially.
