Sora, Donald, Goofy, Violet

=======

Sora quickly flew away from Halloween Town. Their new mission to locate Lelie and Rue ended again in failure. Violet was intrigued by the spooky town, but was even more jittery than before. Sometimes she would randomly scream something or would jump across benches or stones while talking nonsense. When they got back to the Gummi Ship. Sora was surprised that she managed to stay in her seat without ripping it out of the heavy metal floor.

While they were flying, Violet was curled up in her chair and nabbing a quick nap, sometimes even twitching her her seat. The three males leaned into each other so they could whisper and not wake the jumpy girl.

"Somethings definitely up," Donald started.

"It's certainly strange," Sora agreed.

"I don't think I've ever seen her act quite like this before," Goofy added worriedly.

Sora nodded. "The twins have always been energetic, but the level of energy Violet has right now is crazy!"

"She's as jittery as a Heartless," Donald grumbled.

Something went off in Sora's head. "Wait..." He glanced at the sleeping girl. Her face was still, somehow, flushed. Some spots on her skin were so red they were almost purple. Her hair seemed a little darker than before. "She looks a little-" Sora was interrupted by a loud beeping.

Violet started awake. "W-what the h-heck?!"

"What is that?" Goofy shouted.

Sora looked at the screen on the console. It was flashing with a small green button at the bottom.

"Should I press it?" Sora asked.

"I don't know," Donald whimpered.

"I'm gonna press it!" Sora announced.

"Wait!" Goofy called. "What if it's dangerous?" Sora pressed his lips together, thinking.

"Oh, for goodness sake!" Violet burst. "Someone is calling you! This is how you pick up!" She slammed her hand down on the green button. A picture of Lelie and Rue showed up on the screen. Rue was frighteningly pale.

"HUH? LELIE? RUE?" Sora gasped.

Lelie rolled her eyes. "Yes, it's us, dipwad."

"Rue?" Violet squealed.

Rue smiled weakly. "Hey, sis."

Violet screamed in joy. Sora, Donald, and Goofy all flinched. Even Lelie rubbed her ears.

"You seem energetic," Lelie muttered.

"Ohmygoshareyouallokay?DidtheOrganzationhurtyou?Whathappenedareyounearus?" Violet started screaming quickly.

"Gwarsh, you sure are excited," Goofy observed. Rue just looked at her sister with tired eyes.

"Well, Lelie was able to connect a few things and give us this temporary phone-like device," Rue started to explain. "It will only last one time though, and this won't be long."

"Tell us where you are," Sora said.

"The Caribbean," Lelie told him. "You better hurry. We've been here a while and I think the Organization might be on to us. I wanted to stay here until you arrive but if you don't hurry that won't be possible. We'll have to travel to another world and you'd have to find us again."

"Got it!" Sora exclaimed. Through the screen, Lelie studied the frantic Violet, and her gaze shifted to the exhausted Rue.

"Have you two ever been far away from each other for a long time before?" Lelie asked.
