===''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''===

[[File:Another Keyblade Wielder 01 KHBBS.png|thumb|right|Mickey faces Vanitas along with Ventus.]]

While [[Terra]], [[Ventus]], and [[Aqua]] search for Master Xehanort and [[Vanitas]], King Mickey undergoes the Mark of Mastery Exam under the supervision of Yen Sid at the Mysterious Tower, accompanied by Donald and Goofy, during which he uses the [[Star Seeker|Star Seeker Keyblade]]. Later on, Mickey runs away without Yen Sid's permission, using a [[Star Shard]] that allows him to travel throughout other worlds; however, it works rather randomly, as he has not learned how to control it. Terra witnesses the King's leave when he first visits the tower.

[[File:The King's Memory 04 KHII.png|thumb|right|Mickey consults Ansem the Wise and discusses the worlds' safety.]]

After the barriers between the worlds shatter, causing meteors to fall from the sky, Mickey realizes the threat that the Darkness presents. Mickey seeks help for his concerns and the danger he expects. Inspecting the meteors, Mickey found they had a similar property to the [[Star Shard]]. Gathering up enough of the raw material, Mickey built his first [[Gummi Ship]], using it to travel in search of any world that was in danger of the Darkness. This eventually brought him back to [[Radiant Garden]], where he befriended its ruler [[Ansem the Wise]]. They would discuss many topics.   

===''Kingdom Hearts''===

Ten years after the loss of his fellow Keyblade wielders, Mickey takes notice that the stars in the sky were blinking out one after another. Knowing that each star was the light of a world's heart, Mickey realizes that the [[Heartless]] were devouring the worlds. Hoping to stop them, Mickey plans to enter the [[Realm of Darkness]] and find its [[Kingdom Key D|Keyblade]] in order to seal the [[Door to Darkness]]. However, as this task would requite at least two Keyblades, Mickey leaves a letter instructing Donald and Goofy to head to Traverse Town to ask [[Leon]] for help to "find [[Keyblade|the Key]]". Mickey arrives in [[Traverse Town]] at the same time as Sora.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts Ultimania#Kingdom Hearts Ultimania|Kingdom Hearts Ultimania]]''''', '''Interviewer''': "In the end of the ending, Pluto has the King's letter.

The reason why Pluto perked up in Traverse Town was because he felt the King's presence."

===''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories''===

[[File:The World of Darkness 02 KHRECOM.png|thumb|right|Mickey's light reaches Riku's heart and protects him from Ansem's darkness.]]

Although Sora, Donald and Goofy initially enter [[Castle Oblivion]] believing the King to be there, Mickey is only able to send a bit of his light to help Riku in the twelfth basement, when he is attacked by Ansem. When Riku enters the eleventh basement, Mickey is able to project an image of himself, and he makes Riku promise to keep fighting the darkness, while promising to find a way to where Riku is. Riku is then able to call upon Mickey's power in battle as he ascends through the castle's basements.

===''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days''===

[[File:Mickey and Riku-Ansem 01 KHD.png|thumb|right|Mickey promises Riku not to tell what has happened to him.]]

King Mickey reunites with Riku in [[The Woods|the Twilight Town woods]], who has taken on the form of Ansem, Seeker of Darkness. Initially perceiving him as an enemy, Mickey readies his Keyblade to attack until Riku calmly ties his blindfold into place, shocking Mickey as he reverts to his true self. Riku assures Mickey that he has gained some control over the darkness, but explains that [[Naminé]] cannot finish restoring Sora's memories because his most important ones, which are of [[Kairi]], are missing. Mickey is left confused, but Riku further explains that the Organization used the memories they stolen from Sora at Castle Oblivion to create a [[Xion|copy of Sora]] to do their bidding; if Sora does not get his memories of Kairi back, he will remain asleep. Mickey urges Riku to let him help, but the latter declines. Revealing his plans to face [[Roxas|a member of the Organization]] soon and his insecurity about surviving the fight, Riku makes Mickey promise to guide and protect Sora and their friends once they awaken.

===''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''===

[[File:The King Enters! 01 KHII.png|thumb|left|Mickey saves Sora, Donald, and Goofy from a pack of Dusks.]]

As Sora, Donald, and Goofy have been asleep for a year and remain unaware of recent events, Mickey pays a visit to [[Yen Sid]] to ask him to brief the trio on the threat of the [[Nobodies]]. To help them get to the [[Mysterious Tower]], Mickey rides a train provided by his teacher back to [[Twilight Town]]. Arriving at the train station, Mickey is met by Riku, who gives him the [[Munny Pouch]] that he had stolen from [[Roxas]] in the [[Simulated Twilight Town]]. Not wanting Sora and Kairi to know about his condition, Riku pleads with Mickey not to reveal his whereabouts or his condition to Sora, and Mickey reluctantly agrees.

==Personality==

In the past, Mickey is a mischievous and playful individual, often skipping work and getting himself into trouble. He tends to steer clear of dangerous fights, but he shows moments of bravery, such as when he saves Sora from a Heartless ambush. Even as an apprentice under Yen Sid, he often goes against his master's instructions, whether it is to get out of doing chores or to explore other worlds.
