Story
Kingdom Hearts II picks up where Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days and Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories leave off. Sora, Donald, and Goofy have been sleeping for a year while they regain their memories. In the meantime, Roxas has been living in Twilight Town, trying to understand the strange dreams he's been having of Sora's first adventure, whom he does not know of. During the following six days, Roxas encounters various strange anomalies, including a strange enemy that continues to attack him. He also comes in contact with Axel, who appears to know him and tries to take Roxas, and Naminé, a girl who also seems to know Roxas and tries to help him. After six days, Roxas sets out to learn the truth, and makes his way to an abandoned mansion at the behest of a mysterious voice. Along the way, he runs into Axel again, who attempts to fight him, but is unable to beat him. Roxas finally comes across the mysterious voice, an enigmatic man known solely as DiZ, from whom he learns of Sora's relation to him. Roxas decides to return to Sora, effectively disappearing, which leads to Sora's awakening.
Sora, Donald, and Goofy awaken in Twilight Town, not remembering how they got to Twilight Town or anything from the previous year. They soon run into new enemies, but are rescued by King Mickey, who gives them instructions to visit Master Yen Sid. On the way there, they run into Pete, who claims to be working with Maleficent, apparently not knowing that she'd been defeated a year earlier by Sora and company. They later learn from Master Yen Sid of the new enemies, called Nobodies, and they mysterious Organization XIII that's composed of thirteen powerful Nobodies.
Clad in new clothes and powers, the trio ventures through various worlds, battling the Heartless and Nobodies and facing off with several members of Organization XIII. During an attack on Disney Castle, they learn of Maleficent's return, and her plans to again take over the worlds using the Heartless. During a battle in Hollow Bastion, they encounter Xemnas, who they learn is the leader of Organization XIII, and is using the Heartless to get Kingdom Hearts. At the same time, they learn that Kairi has been kidnapped by Axel, who they run into in Hollow Bastion. A member of the Organization himself, Axel appears to be defecting from the Organization, as he tells them that every Heartless slain by the Keyblade releases a heart, which the Organization seeks to build Kingdom Hearts. They also learn from Mickey that Xemnas is the Nobody of the Heartless Ansem that they had fought the year prior, and that the Heartless was an imposter of the real Ansem the Wise, being the Heartless of the real Ansem's apprentice, Xehanort.
Sora, Donald, and Goofy, with help from Mickey, finally come across a link to the Organization's world through Twilight Town, where they find the alternate Twilight Town where Roxas had been kept by DiZ. With a tip from a hooded figure, they figure out the password to the Simulated Twilight Town and make their way into The World That Never Was. Before they make it there, however, the trio is ambushed by Nobodies, but are helped by Axel, who
