| ==''Kingdom Hearts II''==
| |
| One year after the events of [[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories|''Chain of Memories'']], Sora, Donald and Goofy awake in [[Twilight Town]] with their memories restored, although they cannot remember what happened in Castle Oblivion. Continuing their journey to find Riku and King Mickey, they set out travel across new worlds, meeting old friends and enemies from the original Kingdom Hearts game, battling the Heartless and a new threat, the remaining members of the Organization they encountered in Chain of Memories.

| Soon after exploring Twilight Town, Sora and company head off to the [[Twilight Town#The Tower|Tower]] and Sora obtains new attire—on the advice of master sorcerer [[Yen Sid]]—from Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather. In a nod to their film, the three fairies at first all want Sora's new outfit to be their respective color, until finally Sora convinces them to stop fooling around. The new outfit enables Sora to transform into new forms and attain special powers for each of them. The source of the clothing's magic is linked to Sora's heart connected to everyone he had befriended as well as Donald and Goofy, being referred to as "key that connects everything" by Yen Sid; this is how Naminé's memory manipulation also works.

| Throughout the game, Sora expresses his determination to bring Riku back home with him to Destiny Islands, where Kairi is patiently waiting for them. The quest gets more complicated when Kairi herself is kidnapped by [[Organization XIII#VIII. Axel|Axel]]. [[Black Pete|Pete]] (who works for the resurrected [[Maleficent]]) and Organization XIII are causing trouble in the other worlds, and King Mickey refuses to give information regarding Riku. Sora must also discover why some of the members of Organization XIII address him as [[Organization XIII#XIII. Roxas|Roxas]] even after he clearly states his name is Sora. Also throughout the game Sora becomes rather intruiged and interested in the romances between some of his friends, such as [[Elizabeth Swann]] and [[Will Turner]]; hinting romantic feelings for Kairi, which Donald and Goofy smugly joke about (especially Donald, whom says "I know [[Kairi|who]] you're thinking about!"). Kairi is also hinted to have similar feelings for Sora.

| Eventually, Sora, with the help of the [[Twilight Town]] kids (three friends of Roxas in DiZ's simulated Twilight Town) and Axel, manages to find the route to "The World That Never Was": the stronghold of the Organization, where Kingdom Hearts itself resides. Soon after entering the world however, in the area of Memory Skyscraper, Sora's group is ambushed by Nobodies and Sora is forced into a showdown with an Organization member, who turns out to be Roxas (disguised in his former Organization XIII cloak) on a platform of "Dive to the Heart". Afterwards, Sora, Donald, Goofy and King Mickey storm the castle in search of their friends. There, Sora finds Kairi and Riku (having [[Xehanort]]'s appearance) and the mysteries of Roxas' identity and King Mickey's secrets are finally solved. Riku's appearance then reverts to the way it should and he and the others attempt to stop [[Organization XIII#I. Xemnas|Xemnas]], the leader of the Organization. After they seemingly defeat Xemnas, Namine and Roxas emerge to speak with each other before fusing with Kairi and Sora to complete themselves.

| Sora and Riku are separated from King Mickey, Goofy, Kairi and Donald. They fight Xemnas again on their own and defeat him, though they remain stranded in The World That Never Was with Riku slightly injured. As Sora and Riku share their thoughts about their adventure and friendship, they come to the conclusion that "if worlds were made of light and darkness, they'll be the darkness since the light realm is safe". As they listen to the waves, a bottle containing Kairi’s letter washes onto the shore. The door to light appears, and both Sora and Riku use it to return to their homeworld: Destiny Islands.

| Having brought Riku back home, fused with Roxas and reunited at last with all his friends, Sora returns Kairi's lucky charm with Kairi saying "You're home." During the credits, Sora is walking around in the Secret Place. He smiles while looking at all the pictures he and Kairi had drawn over the years. He glances down at the picture of Kairi and himself. He sees that Kairi drew the other half of a paopu fruit, and smiles to himself.

| At the end of the credits, another FMV shows Sora asking Riku what he thinks the door to light was. Riku replies that it was Sora's heart, "it's always closer than you think". Kairi runs up to them and give them a bottle she found, containing a letter from King Mickey. The trio reads the letter, its contents a mystery to the player.
