Text Racing Through The Darkness (Kingdom Hearts: Cars)

[FlipMode 141]

Well, I sure did write a thing. This is of course Sora, Donald and goofy arriving at a new world during the KH1 timeline. The world is based on Disney / Pixar’s Cars. I wanted to write the whole story in one sitting but I thought it would work better and be easier to read as chapters in the end. Each chapter should be quite short, because I want it to be accessible to as many people as possible So enjoy, C&C and all that good stuff.

 

Chapter I: Just Warming Up

 

Trapped in a never-ending darkness, his mind wandered through the memoires of her. “Come on lazy bum, wake up!” the voice rang inside his mind, clear enough to put visual images of her together. That red hair that flowed in the wind, and her oceanic blue eyes. Sora was thinking about Kairi again, he often did as he travelled between worlds and adjusted to each one.

 

“Don’t ever forget, wherever you go. I’m always with you” the memories continued to play, echoing and becoming less and less audible

“It’s my luck charm, be sure to bring it back to me! Right, Sora?” by the time she had said his name, the images had faded completely. There was no more sound, nothing but the black abyss.

 

“Sora?” A familiar voice said.

“Soooora?” said the other.

 

Sora opened his eyes, and regained his composure, his eyes adjusted to what was around him. In a patch of grass, ahead of him were two cars. Completely able to talk, they had feelings, they looked like other beings, reincarnated as cars.

Sora moved forward to approach them, as he did it felt bizarre, almost as if he was gliding forward across the grass, the quicker he went, the louder the roar of an engine could be heard.

“Donald, Goofy?” he said. And the two cars turned entirely 180 degrees to face him.

 

“Sora! What the heck happened to us?” Said the blue car. It was sleek in it’s design. It had white racing stripes across the body and the number 03 printed on the left and right front panels, though it was also less aerodynamic than any race car Sora had seen.

 

“Errr, I guess in this world we have to be cars. We can’t be ourselves in some worlds because it would be mud-“ he cut himself off “meddling” he correct himself. Receiving a cold glance from the blue car. Goofy was significantly different in design to the other two. He was more of a racing truck than a racing car. He was yellow in colour scheme and his paint seemed to reflect light more than most. It was so reflective Sora could see himself in the paint.

 

“Looking good, guys!” Sora said, admiring his own sports car appearance in the reflection. Watching the grills of himself and his friends move when they spoke, and the front lights blinked occasionally as if to represent eyes. Being so low to the ground made moving around seem even faster than usual.

“So like, do you two know where we are? I guess I was asleep back there.” Sora asked his companions.

 

“Well, the speakers keep saying that this here arena we are in is the Piston Cup. So maybe there is a race coming up” Goofy explained, he was always more observant than the other two even though his appearance suggested otherwise, even here in a world inhabited by vehicles.

 

“A race?!” Sora shouted “Cool! Maybe we can enter, or at least meet some of the other racers!” “Come on, let’s head to the pits!” Sora was excited, he had always loved racing his friends on Destiny Islands and now had a chance to race at a real high octane level.

 

“Oh, boy...” Said Donald hesitantly as the three of them accelerated off, flicking up blades of grass and leaving tire tracks.

 

The way to the pits was just in front of them, but to get there they would have to cross the race track, which other drivers were currently practising on. It was a large oval track, the only purpose seemed to be to go as fast as possible, and pit in at wise times to finish first. Some cars were talking with their teams about pit strategies, others were talking trash to their competitors “My first car in Gran Turismo was faster than you!” shouted one of them.

 

But this was still a living World. And as such it would have heartless around somewhere. They would surely interfere with the race and capture the hearts of the other race cars.

I love it! Including a Cars world is such a great idea. I imagine playing the actual game, driving a Sora race-car around in third person, and playing racing mini-games
