Ansem, after nine years of being a Heartless, appears in a brown robe at the [[Destiny Islands]] Keyhole before the world's fall into darkness, insulting [[Sora]]'s ignorance of what was to come, and completely ignoring Sora's questions. He then vanishes when Sora's back is turned.


The villain appears again to [[Riku]], after his loss to Sora at [[Hollow Bastion]]. Shaken by his loss of control over the Keyblade to Sora, Riku lets himself be influenced by Ansem and his promise of power. Riku then lets his heart open up to the darkness, allowing Ansem to possess him.
It would late turn out that since Ansem was not insulting Sora for not knowing what about to happen that night, but what would happen in the future. The future versions of Sora and Riku from two years from then would return to the past right before the destruction of [[Destiny Islands]] as part of their [[Mark of Mastery Exam]] to wake the [[Sleeping Worlds]]. As part of [[Master Xehanort]]'s plans, Ansem was there to allow himself and the other members of [[Real Organization XIII|the second Organization]] to follow the duo and make one of them another vessel for Master Xehanort's heart. To separate them to better the Organization's chances, Ansem creates a phantom of [[Ursula]] to attack them. After its defeat, Ansem watches as the two enter the [[Sleeping Worlds]], noting that he's connected this world to them.


Firmly in control of Riku's body, Ansem creates the artificial [[Keyblade of heart]] from six of the Princesses of Heart's hearts. This Keyblade possesses the power to unlock hearts, a property he soon tests on [[Maleficent]], transforming her into a gigantic dragon. The dragon is felled by Sora and his friends, leading Ansem to comment that the dark fairy was arrogant to believe that she had manipulated the Heartless when it was actually the other way around. He insults Maleficent and takes his leave, waiting for Sora in the chamber of the [[Final Keyhole]].
Seeing the same kind of lust for power that he had once seen in [[Terra]] coming from [[Riku]], Ansem appears before him following his battle with Sora. Riku is confused over why the Keyblade left him, to which Ansem explains; only a strong heart can wield a Keyblade. He tells Riku that to become stronger, he must open his heart to the darkness and let his entire being become one with it. Riku complies, opening himself to the darkness. However, Ansem uses this to posses Riku, regaining a body.
 
[[File:Riku's Keyblade 01 KH.png|left|thumb|210px|Ansem informs Maleficent that he's achieved forging the Keyblade of heart.]]Firmly in control of Riku's body, Ansem meets with Maleficent as the Final Keyhole forms. He informs her that unlocking the Keyhole to the Darkness will allow the Heartless to overrun Hollow Bastion, but she is uncaring; Maleficent believes that she can use the darkness to rule the other worlds. Sneering, he creates the artificial [[Keyblade of heart]] from six of the Princesses of Heart's hearts. As the Keyhole is not finished yet, Ansem notes its because Kairi's heart is missing and without its power, they are at a standstill. Maleficent leaves him to guard the princesses, while she deals with the King's fools. However, she is quickly defeated. Ansem follows her to a hidden chamber, asking if she needs help. Once Sora sees him and the Keyblade of Heart, Ansem tells him that it can unlock the hears of others. Ansem demonstrates by stabbing Maleficent with it and unlocking her heart, restoring her to full power after an entire decade. Maleficent uses the darkness to turn into a dragon for a second battle. However, the dragon is felled by Sora and his friends, leading Ansem to comment that the dark fairy was arrogant to believe that she had manipulated the Heartless when it was actually the other way around. He insults Maleficent and takes his leave, waiting for Sora in the chamber of the [[Final Keyhole]].

Sora arrives, finally reunited with Kairi, though she is comatose due to the loss of her heart. Ansem comments that she lacks a heart, and from his impersonal comments and unusual nature, Sora realizes that who he sees as Riku is not truly the friend he knew. Riku introduces himself as "Ansem, Seeker of Darkness". The Heartless goes on to explain that Kairi's heart is in Sora, and that his dark Keyblade is necessary to remove the imprisoned heart. Sora refuses to agree with the plan and they battle. Sora wins the duel, and Ansem retreats. However, his efforts are not in vain, as Sora stabs himself with the dark Keyblade, in order to free Kairi's heart as well as the six other Princesses. This ends up opening the final Keyhole and the way to Kingdom Hearts, as well as the loss of Sora's heart and his brief transformation into [[Sora's Heartless]].

At times, Riku almost becomes overwhelmed by the darkness, but [[Mickey Mouse|King Mickey]]'s light continually comes to the rescue, frustrating Ansem. Eventually, Riku overcomes his fear of the darkness, intending to use it as well as the light. He also additionally receives some guidance from the enigmatic [[Ansem the Wise|DiZ]], the true owner of the mysterious voice, who in turn leads Riku to [[Naminé]]. Naminé offers to seal away Riku's darkness and Ansem, but he instead chooses to face the Heartless on his own. DiZ then gives Riku a card that will give Ansem form, so that Riku can finish him off once and for all.

Ansem again attempts to turn Riku to the darkness completely, and tries to defeat the young boy so that he can take possession of his body once more. However, though he is defeated, Riku realizes that Ansem still lingers in his heart, and sets off with King Mickey in order to rid himself of the Seeker of Darkness forever.
