Quotes
(Opening Scene: 'Xigbar/Luxu and the Master of Masters prepare the Black Box to be opened')

(At the large Castle near Daybreak Town, Xigbar/Luxu & the Master of Masters gathered 4 Keyblade Foretellers for a short meeting)

Master of Masters: 'Welcome, Foretellers. I have invited you here for something important...It is time to open the Black Box and spread the Darkness across the Realm of Light. But to do this, we need the 7 Heart Keyblades to form the 'Heart-Blade'.'

Aced: 'But how are we supposed to form this kind of weapon?'

Xigbar/Luxu: 'I read a Prophecy that can save Kingdom Hearts and it says...'Only the Master of the Sea with the strong Light along with the 6 Guardians can close the Black Box & also save the Realm of Light'

Ira: 'That's impossible. Who is this Master of the Sea?'

Gula: 'It has to be someone that can bring back the Keyblade Wielder of the Sky with the Power of Revival'

Invi: 'And only Ava can find her & also convince to save the Realm of Light from the Darkness'

Xigbar/Luxu: 'I know the person who can fulfill the Prophecy, bring Sora back with the Revival Power, and it's none other than... (He pulls out a picture of Kairi) Her'

Ira: 'She's the one who can bring back Sora and save Kingdom Hearts?'

Xigbar/Luxu: 'Yes. When she uses the Power of Revival to rescue Sora, I will confront those 2 to prevent them from saving the Realm of Light...because what I said about long stories...this will be a best one to remember'

Master of Masters: 'Then we must proceed now. I'm sending a Keyblade Foreteller to a Disney World and they'll pair up a villain, and Kairi will get stronger once she saves a World'

(The portal opens)

Master of Masters: 'Now go forth, and may your Heart be your Guiding Key'

(Aced, Gula, Ira & Invi enter the portal)

Master of Masters: 'Still no sign of Ava?'

Xigbar/Luxu: 'I'm still looking for her, because she's the 7th Heart Keyblade to unlock the Black Box'

Master of Masters: 'If word gets out of Ava's whereabouts, this won't be good'

Xigbar/Luxu: 'I think she'll find Kairi before we find her first'

Master of Masters: 'We'll be expecting some great things for Sora & Kairi once they're reunited'

Xigbar/Luxu: (He smiled) 'We shall see, my Master...we shall see'

(Then the scene fades to black)

(The scene shows a beautiful Sunrise across the Ocean with a cleared Sky)

(Disney Logo)

(Square Enix Logo)

(Then the main title appears)

'Kingdom Hearts IV'

Kairi: 'Sora...ever since you used the Power of Waking to bring me back, you had trouble controlling your powers. But no matter where you go...I will be your Guiding Key home.'

(Then the song begins with scenes from the events of Kingdom Hearts III)

(First Lines of Kingdom Hearts IV)

(At Kairi's house in the Destiny Islands at nightfall, she was sleeping when she had a bad dream)

Kairi: (Mumbles) 'No...Sora...'

(In a Dream, we see Kairi walking across the Ancient City of Scala Ad Caelum where she sees Kingdom Hearts being eclipsed by Master Xehanort while battling Sora, Goofy & Donald Duck with the X-Keyblade)

(As Sora, Goofy & Donald Duck use their combined power to defeat Xehanort, a flash of light blinds Kairi)

(Then Kairi wakes up afraid)

Kairi: 'NO!' (Pants)

Namine: (She & Xion walks into Kairi's Bedroom) 'Kairi, are you all right?'

Kairi: 'It was awful, Namine. Sora faded because of the Dangers of the Waking Power, it's my fault I didn't trained longer and because of Xehanort, I'm not strong enough! (Crying)

Xion: (She & Namine comforts Kairi) 'Actually, we missed Sora. He revived me & Roxas, plus Terra & Ventus is also saved with help from Aqua'

(Then Kairi's Gummiphone rings as Kairi dries her Tear and answers it)

(Riku): 'Kairi, you're up? Then I think Master Yen Sid has found another way to bring back Sora'

Kairi: 'Really?'

(Riku): 'It's risky, but only you can save him by finding the 7 New Princesses of Heart, and right now, we known 4 of them. Plus you'll need some help'

Kairi: 'If only I gotten stronger, then I will never gotten that scar from Xehanort'

(Riku): 'Once you do more Training, you'll be more prepared. Just meet me and the others tomorrow at Master Yen Sid's Tower, then he'll explain everything'

Kairi: (She smiled) 'I will, Riku. I better get some shuteye...good night' (Then she hangs up)

(The next morning at the Mysterious Tower, Master Yen Sid talks to Kairi)

Master Yen Sid: 'I have brought you here, Kairi...for something important'

Kairi: 'When Sora overused the Power of Waking, he faded from existence because of Xehanort giving me this scar'

Master Yen Sid: 'It's not your fault. You were unprepared because you haven't trained longer, we knew that Sora wasn't going to give up. Now it's you turn to save him because I can sense his presence'

Kairi: 'You have?'

Master Yen Sid: 'When Luxord gave the Wild Card to Sora during the final battle against Master Xehanort, it revived him when he used the Power of Waking to revive you. He's in a strange world called 'Verum Rex'.'

Kairi: 'Verum Rex'? How did he know he's in a different world?'

Riku: (He, Aqua, Xion, Ansem the Wise, Namine, Terra, Ventus, Roxas, Axle/Lea, King Mickey, Goofy & Donald Duck arrived) 'It's time you know the Truth of the Master of Masters'

(King Mickey explain to Kairi about the Master of Masters, Luxu, the 5 Keyblade Foretellers and the Black Box)

(King Mickey): Before you, Sora and Riku were born, there was a peaceful village called Daybreak Town. It's where people share the Hearts of Light to everyone that kept the beautiful place safe and Peaceful. Until one terrible day, a Keyblade Wielder named Luxu who wants to gain power by using the Darkness'

(A Flashback shows Luxu using the 'No Name' Keyblade to destroy Market Stands in Daybreak Village and the people fled)

(King Mickey): 'The People ran off because of his strong Keyblade and he met the Master of Masters. (A clip shows Luxu meeting the Master of Masters as he collects the Black Box) He learns about the Power of Waking, Power of Revival and the Black Box that holds a dangerous dark Power that can spread across Worlds in the Realm of Light'

(A few people argue about the Black Box being stolen)

(King Mickey): 'With people in terrible situations, it triggered the Keyblade 1st War between Light & Darkness. (A Clip shows 5 Keyblade Foretellers confronting Luxu and winning their first battle) But the 5 Foretellers teamed together to prevent loss of life and they won the first battle'

(The People decide to form 5 Keyblade Unions)

(King Mickey): 'In order to win the War, the 5 Keyblade Foretellers, Aced, Ava, Gula, Invi & Ira formed the 5 Unions against the Master of Masters. With their plan a success, they have won the War and brought Peace in the Realm of Light as Luxu & the Master of Masters retreated.'

(Present Day)

Kairi: 'So you're telling me that the 5 Keyblade Foretellers formed the 5 Unions that won the 1st Keyblade War against Luxu?'

Master Yen Sid: 'That is correct'

Aqua: (She pulls out a Book that she collect) 'I have Master Eraqus's Book, maybe we can find out more about the Foretellers and the 5 Unions'

Kairi: 'It might know information about the Master of Masters'

Aqua: (She reads the Book) “Long ago, people lived in peace & freedom, bathed in the warmth of light. Everyone loved the light. But people began to fight over the light. They wanted it for themselves. And so darkness was born inside their hearts. The darkness spread, swallowing the light and many people’s hearts. It nearly covered everything, and the world disappeared. But small fragments of light survived in the hearts of children. With these fragments, children rebuilt the lost world. It’s the world we live in now. But the true light sleeps, deep within the darkness. That’s why the worlds are still scattered, divided from each other. But someday, a door to the innermost darkness will open. And the true light will return.”

Kairi: 'I know that story. It's about many worlds, but it never mention why the Darkness came'

Aqua: (She continues Reading) “In that time of fairytales, the great light was protected by the X-Blade. In order to protect their world, men crafted blades in the likeness of the X-Blade and christened them Keyblades. Of them all, 5 Keyblade Foretellers stood above as their leaders: Master Ira of the Unicornis Union, Master Aced of the Ursas Union, Master Invi of the Anguis Union, Master Gula of the Leopardus Union, and Master Ava of the Vulpes Union. Together, they protected the light. But in time, men grew jealous and began to fight over the precious light. They raised their Keyblades against one another. Brother striking down brother, friend betraying friend. This calamity was forever immortalized as the Keyblade War. In its wake, the world was left fractured and the true light retreated into the depths of the darkness. But legend claims that the true light sleeps in the innermost darkness. And only when the worlds have been steeped into darkness will the foretellers return.”

Xion: 'But the Worlds aren't in Darkness now'

Kairi: 'Maybe there's something that can save Kingdom Hearts'

Aqua: (She finishes reading) “Only with the power of the Keyblade Foretellers can the door be opened. When all six are gathered, the Master will appear alongside the true door. And in that place where time does not tick, where only darkness and light are eternal, will Kingdom Hearts be saved.” (Then she closes the Book) 'So that's our Key of defeating Xigbar'

King Mickey: 'If we can gather the 6 Heart Keyblades before Xigbar does, then the 7th can open the true door and save Kingdom Hearts'

Kairi: 'What if...I'm the 7th Guardian of Light? I might become the Master'

Master Yen Sid: 'If the Prophecy is true, then we must bring back Sora'

Xion: 'But how are we gonna do that?'

Master Yen Sid: 'That's where Kairi comes in. I am sending her on a quest to find the 3 remaining New Princesses of Heart while Riku will start his mission to bring back Sora'

King Mickey: (He realizes an idea) 'Fellas! There's another way to bring back Sora...the Power of Revival, and only Kairi can unlock it'

Kairi: 'I'm the one who can use it?'

Riku: 'When I saw you & Sora share the Paopu Fruit before the final battle against Xehanort, you both have a very strong connection. But first, you must pass the Mastery Exam with Aqua before you start the Journey'

Ansem the Wise: 'If Kairi starts her Mastery Exam now, she won't be ready to unlock the Power of Revival'

Aqua: 'But if she succeeds, we can let her save Sora'

Ansem the Wise: 'No!'

Riku: 'If we don't let Kairi use the Power of Revival now, then Xigbar is going to open the Black Box later'

Ansem the Wise: 'Get out of the Mysterious Tower' (Then Riku walks away)

Namine: 'Ansem won't let us have Kairi take the Mastery Exam'

Kairi: 'I'm gonna have a word with him' (She & Aqua walks into Ansem's Study)

(Kairi & Aqua enters Ansem the Wise's Study desk to talk with him)

Kairi: 'Ansem, I need to ask you something...why won't you let me take the Mastery Exam? It's because I'm weak, or it explains I have this scar on my back from Xehanort!'

Ansem the Wise: 'How dare you?'

Aqua: (Upset) 'Now look, Ansem. She has to get stronger if she's going to have any chance to bring back Sora, she's the only hope we have left'

Ansem the Wise: 'This is not about bringing friends back...'

Aqua: 'Liar!'

Ansem the Wise: 'This is about protecting the Realm of Light from the Master of Masters!'

Kairi: (Angry) 'Then let me take the Mastery Exam so I can become a Keyblade Master, that is why I love SORA!'

Ansem the Wise: 'NO! Nooo!' (Then he smashes the glass cupboard with pictures of Sora, Kairi, Riku, King Mickey, Namine & Roxas)

(Then Ansem calms himself and reveals the Truth)

Ansem the Wise: 'I will not throw away your life the same way Xehanort did. Every time the Guardians of Light lose a battle, we retreat. Every time you get kidnapped, your friends fail...but no more. The line has to be drawn here! And the Guardians of Light will make Xigbar pay for what Xehanort has done!'

King Mickey: (He saw Ansem's breakdown and asks him something) 'Kairi is the best hope we have remaining, and what if she fails to try? You got to let her do this...she can't be consumed with guilt'

Ansem the Wise: (He asks King Mickey) 'That's where Master Eraqus convinced Xehanort to surrender the X-Keyblade to him at Scala Ad Caelum when he said 'Checkmate'.'

Kairi: 'How did you know?'

Ansem the Wise: 'A game of Chess'

(Then Ansem, King Mickey, Kairi & Aqua exit the Study and decides to bring back Sora)

Ansem the Wise: 'It's time for Kairi to start her Mastery Exam and her Journey to unlock the Power of Revival so she & Sora can be together'

Riku: 'I thought you won't let her take it'

Ansem the Wise: 'Actually, King Mickey told me that she can't be consume with guilt all the time'

Kairi: (She becomes determined) 'I will do it...Sora has saved my life many times, and now it's my turn'

Master Yen Sid: 'It is time to begin your Mastery Exam, Kairi. Train well and you'll gain the Rank of Master'

(Spoiler Scene: Kairi finally found Sora and becomes reunited)

(Kairi, Goofy, Donald Duck, Webby Vanderquack and Roxanne took out the large 3-headed Heartless in Verum Rex World)

Kairi: 'It was tough, but we succeeded... (Then her Heart starts glowing) I can sense something...Sora is close!'

Webby Vanderquack: 'You're about to be reunited with him'

Goofy: 'Then let's go'

Donald Duck: 'Yeah!' (They went up the Outside Park Stairs to the top)

(When they got to the top, they finally found Sora, Riku & their new friend Yozora)

Donald Duck: 'Is that...'

Goofy: 'We finally found him'

Roxanne: 'And he's with Riku & Yozora'

Webby Vanderquack: 'Go ahead, Kairi'

(Kairi walked into the Park's Center)

Riku: (He sees someone approaching) 'Sora, you better see this'

Yozora: 'Is that...'

Sora: (He sees Kairi appear) Kairi?'

Kairi: 'SORA! I finally found you! (She runs towards Sora as she forms sad tears)

(Then Kairi hugs Sora and embrace with him)

Kairi: 'You lazy bum! I thought I never see you again!' (Crying)

Sora: 'Kairi, don't be a wet blanket. I'm here now, and I'm with Riku & a new friend, Yozora'

Kairi: (She wipe her Tear) 'Yozora?'

Yozora: 'I want to let you know that Sora got revived by Luxord's Wild Card and he ended up here in Verum Rex. But it's nice to meet you, Kairi'

Goofy: (He, Donald Duck, Roxanne and Webby Vanderquack shows up) 'And she didn't arrived here alone'

Sora: 'Goofy, Donald!'

Donald Duck: 'You have us worried, Sora. I want you to meet Webby Vanderquack'

Webby Vanderquack: 'It's a pleasure to see you'

Roxanne: 'And you're not gonna believe this, but Kairi is now a Keyblade Master'

Sora: 'A Keyblade Master?'

Goofy: 'She has completed her Training by Aqua, Master Yen Sid and also Ienzo'

Webby Vanderquack: 'We can talk about this later, but for now, we should get out of here'

Kairi: 'I have an idea. Sora, Riku, Yozora...fuse your Keyblade with mine, and we'll open the portal to the Realm of Light'

Yozora: 'It's a little intense, but let's do this'

Sora: 'Here goes nothing' (He, Riku & Yozora pull out their Keyblade)

(Sora, Riku & Yozora fuse the Keyblade with Kairi's Oathkeeper Keyblade, then a beam of light is shot into the sky as a large portal opens to the Realm of Light)

Riku: 'It worked'

Donald Duck: 'Wow!'

Goofy: 'We're finally going to bring Sora home'

Yozora: 'I'm ready to team up with you guys. The battle against this Luxu won't be easy, but it'll be fun'

Kairi: 'Then let's go'

(Then Sora, Kairi, Riku, Yozora, Webby Vanderquack, Roxanne, Goofy & Donald Duck enter the large portal to the Realm of Light)

(At Daybreak Town's large Castle inside the Throne Room)

Xigbar/Luxu: 'Kairi's refused to surrender...is driving us nuts!'

Pete: 'Just be patient. You'll defeat Kairi once she rescues Sora with the Power of Revival'

Mortimer Mouse: (He shows up) 'Maybe I can assist you'

Xigbar/Luxu: '(He grabs Mortimer) 'Who are ya?'

Mortimer Mouse: 'I can't tell you if you don't release me. (Xigbar/Luxu releases him) I am Mortimer Mouse, a rival to King Mickey & Queen Minnie'

Master of Masters: 'So what brings you here...Mortimer'

Mortimer Mouse: 'I want to team up with the 4 Keyblade Foretellers so we can prevent Kairi from finding the 3 New Princesses of Heart'

Pete: 'That's just great, we needed another enemy Minion'

Xigbar/Luxu: 'So what's your plan? (He fires an energy beam with his Keyblade to make a tiny hole above the roof)

Mortimer Mouse: 'Don't you realized that you have a very impatience problem!? So here's my Bargain...If you let me & Pete stall Kairi & her allies Goofy, Donald Duck, Roxanne & Webby Vanderquack. Then in return... (Then he tells the Audience something) Is everyone paying attention? I will help Xigbar aka Luxu open the Black Box, just think of it as a win-win success'

Master of Masters: 'If you can stall Kairi & her allies before they find the 3 new Princesses of Heart, then you will be rewarded. Fail me, and the consequences will be...not normal'

Mortimer Mouse: 'Thanks, my Master'

Pete: 'So...welcome to the Foretellers Big Leagues'

(Before the Final Battle)

Sora: 'Once we enter the top floor of the Castle, Kairi...There's no turning back'

Yozora: 'So, Kairi...are you ready?

(Near the large door, a message says 'Entering the door will start the Final Battle, what do you want to do?'. 2 Options that says 'I need to Train a little longer', 'Let's finish this now'.)

(Kairi pulls out her Keyblade)

Kairi: 'Let's stop Luxu and go home together' (Then they enter the large door where Xigbar/Luxu is waiting)

(Spoiler Scene: 'Kairi, Sora & Ava defeat Xigbar aka Luxu, and saved the Realm of Light')

Xigbar/Luxu: 'As long as I have the 'Heart Keyblade', I will rule Kingdom Hearts and have total control of Darkness throughout every World'

Kairi: (She walks to Xigbar/Luxu) 'You will never win, Luxu. Because only the Princess of Heart can use it to wipe out Darkness with the Light. Xehanort has failed, and so will you'

Xigbar/Luxu: 'After I finish off Sora, Riku and also Yozora & Ava, you along with Webby, Roxanne, Namine, Aqua & Xion will be my prisoners'

Kairi: 'That won't happen...because you are, and always will be...second-best'

Xigbar/Luxu: 'What?! (But then Sora & Ava use the Fused Keyblade and fired an energy attack to knock the 'Heart Keyblade' off Xigbar/Luxu's hands) No!'

(Then Kairi catches it)

Kairi: 'Now to make sure you won't threaten Sora again...Heart Keyblade, send Luxu into the Black Box!' (Then she fires a Rainbow Beam at the opened Black Box)

(Xigbar/Luxu gets pulled towards the opened Black Box)

Xigbar/Luxu: 'I will not forget you, Kairi! The Master of Masters will stop you & Sora, then Kingdom Hearts will soon be taken over by him! (Then he uses his 'No Name' Keyblade to pull in Maleficent) You're coming with me!'

Maleficent: 'I shall return soon, and you'll all be defeated!'

(Then Xigbar/Luxu and Maleficent went into the Black Box as it closes, the skyline of Daybreak Town went from darkness into clear daylight as Riku, Yozora, Xion, Namine, King Mickey, Aqua, Roxanne, Webby, Goofy & Donald Duck is freed from Luxu's ropes)

Sora: 'It worked, we closed the Black Box and put Luxu & Maleficent in'

Kairi: (She hugs Sora) 'We did it, Sora. We saved Kingdom Hearts'

King Mickey: 'I'm glad you managed to save your friends, Kairi. We agree that you & Sora deserved to be Keyblade Masters'

Yozora: (He walks to Sora & Kairi) 'Thank you for saving my life, I am in your debt'

Ava: 'You did well, Kairi. I'm glad to be on your side, so no matter what anybody says...you'll always be a Keyblade Master to me' (She hugs Kairi)

Kairi: 'I own you one'

Sora: 'Welcome to our team, Ava. We are honored'

(Then the Light Portal opens up)

Riku: 'The Light Portal is opened, this will take us to Twilight Town'

Kairi: 'So Sora...are you ready to go home?'

Sora: 'Absolutely, Kairi'

Kairi: 'Then let's go home...together'

(Then all 13 Keyblade Guardians of Light enter the Light Portal)

(Last Lines of the Game before End Credits and Epilogue Scene)

(Sora, Kairi, Riku, Aqua, Xion, Namine, Roxanne, Webby Vanderquack, King Mickey, Goofy, Donald Duck, Yozora & Ava arrived home to Twilight Town by the Light Portal and everyone was there seeing them arrive home)

Sora's Friends: (Cheering)

Kairi: 'Sora...welcome home'

Sora: 'I'm back...thanks to you, Kairi'

Kairi: (She puts both hands on Sora) 'I think you earned a welcome home Kiss' (Then she kisses Sora)
