Comments

[crowncharm]

Pretty sure, yeah. He was really strong - a lot stronger than both of us.

[... His Keyblade? Oh, that one's easy - it's hard to forget the weapon that delivered so much pain the many ways that one did.] Well.. it was pretty big, and heavy-looking. I don't think I could've lifted that if I wanted with both hands, let alone use it one-handed. Brass, maybe? Could have been bronze... and a teal hand guard.

[As easy as that was to answer, Sora still has to wonder...] Why'd you want to know that?

[limitless_land]

[At that description, he's pretty sure he didn't place a hand on Sora's shoulder but why was it there and why could he see the skin on his hands turn a little paler?]

...It's him.

[Now there really isn't any doubt in his mind. It has to be the same person who made that promise with him so long ago. He had to find him, find out what happened from the source that wasn't Xehanort. Mickey had mentioned those names before, but...]

Sora, where did you find him?

[crowncharm]

[Well, that...

Um.

Riku, you moved fast. He looks from that hand back up to his best friend's face, concern showing on his own.] Riku?

[That reaction... are you going to be okay? He hesitates a little, before answering.] I... don't know the name of the world; Chip and Dale told us about a portal that showed up in Mickey's castle, and it took us there.

[That world, though... he looks away, and he finds himself trying not to shudder thinking about it. Something about it had felt wrong, and had put him in high alert.] It might still be there - we can go check, if you want.

[He really doesn't want to fight that guy again, Riku. .______.;]

[darkshield]

[Let's just say there was a very familiar tug at his heartstrings and he is not sure how to interpret that, much like one would not be akin to seeing a ghost. He gives Sora a look of "I'm fine" as he lets go, but that revelation...

He just wanted to make sure he wasn't still dreaming, too.]

Let's go. Don't worry, if it gets too much, we run.

[And he still has about 86 Elixirs from when they beat Xemnas.]

[crowncharm]

[... He knows that resolved look; there's no changing Riku's mind when he gets that look on his face.

Another brief moment of hesitation passes, before Sora nods.] All right. I'll go tell the others we'll be back soon.

[... he hopes they'll be back soon - he doesn't want Donald or Lea to eat all of that cake.]

[darkshield]

[it's okay Sora he stole some of it and placed it in his hammerspace for the trip

and by some, he means half

Without much else in words shared with the others in assurances - hopefully most would believe the story of "needing to digest the fact that he is master privately", which was true as well - they made their way to a gummi ship and blasted off for Disney Castle. The journey wasn't very fruitful save a few Heartless and what may just wind up being their last dessert binge together for a while.

Really, it wasn't eventful at all until they got to the Hall of the Cornerstone-]

[holyburstking]

So, what brought ya here fellas?

[...saith a very squeaky voice from behind them.

Busted.]

1/2

[crowncharm]

[Oh. Crud.]

[crowncharm]

Um... hi, Your Majesty! [Sora, you're horrible at at this 'acting like nothing is wrong' thing.]

... it's... um... kind of complicated? [So, so busted.]

[holyburstking]

[He looks to Sora, then to Riku, then to Sora again. Both of them got the "we are so totally busted" face on - both versions of it, too.

See this look? This is the look of someone who has watched Goofy raise Max and ain't buying it.]

Well, it's always best ta start at the beginning...

[> You get the feeling that he won't simply go away...]

[crowncharm]

[... he can't bring himself to even try to get out of this one. It'd be like lying to his mother.

So, Sora sighs and tries to figure out how to explain.] I told Riku about the portal behind you, and who was there on the other side. He wanted to see for himself.

[Sora, you know that's not all of it, but it's an accurate enough summary. Ish.

Doesn't explain a lot of the motives or anything, but.]

[holyburstking]

Who was...?

[ Looking at the GIANT FRIGGIN' PORTAL RIGHT THURR, then back at them. How'd that get there, by the way? No one tells him anything.]

[darkshield]

We think it might be someone I met, when I was little.

[Please don't make him say why this is significant please don't make him say why this is significant...]

[holyburstking]

Do ya mean the one who passed you the-?

[power? ...Well, he had an idea why they ran off so suddenly, but he still had to wonder.]

But what makes ya think they're on the other side a' this?

[crowncharm]

[... Passed him the...? Oh. OH. That's why you asked him to--!] I think that guy uses the same Keyblade as the guy Riku met - he asked me to describe it for him, and he recognized it.

[... Sora still isn't looking forward to this.] I only recognized his voice after the dream Riku pulled me out of - he called me 'Ven' there, and the guy on the other side of the portal said that name, too.

[holyburstking]

Ven!?

[He sure knew that name, by the way he jumped up so high and how agape his mouth is.]

Then that means.... [Terra's there?] What did he look like? And what was the world like?

[crowncharm]

W-well... [The King recognized that name? So, this wasn't just something Xehanort would've done to mess with him?

Sora's getting the feeling that what he says next could be Very Important.] I couldn't see his face at all when I fought him - he was wearing this red and gold suit of armor - but that world was...

[His mouth goes dry, thinking about it - and not just from remembering the heat on that world. He could bear the heat easily enough, but something about that place...] It's ... pretty barren - I didn't see any plants anywhere. There were sandstorms and a lot of large cliffs, and the ground looked completely dry.

[But the worst detail sends a shiver up his spine, and the feeling he'd had when he first went there returns.] There were hundreds of Keyblades everywhere, sticking out of the ground. It might have been thousands - there was a lot there that I didn't see.

[holyburstking]

[And the shock fades into a bit of pale horror.]

...The Keyblade Graveyard.

[Mickey looks to the portal, then to the two boys again.]

Sora, I dunno how ya managed ta do it, but ya may have found what's left of a good pal of Aqua an' Ven's there. A pal no one's seen in about ten years.

[and then, his gaze falls squarely on Riku.]

Ya may not like what yer about ta see, Riku. If ya say he was there, then...

[darkshield]

[Aqua... was that the lady's name? He pushes the thought aside for now, because something was focused on him.]

I know.

[He can see the worry in his friend's face, and he can almost taste the tension in the air at the very thought about going through that portal again, but his mind was made up.]

But if he's really there, even just a remnant... then I have to talk to him.

[Even if it means trying to wear him down and praying to Kingdom Hearts they don't lose a buttcheek or something.]

[crowncharm]

Aqua...? [Oh. When did Sora's hand go over his heart? Was that her name?

And why did hearing that cause this warm feeling inside him, even when the thought of going to that world again terrified him?

But if Riku was going...] All right. Let's go.

[Sora heads through first - if the guy in the armor wants to pick another fight, it might as well be him.]

[quakega]

[On the other side of the portal, the winds are gusting through at their usual rate, sand carried along with astonishing ease. Just as described, there are hundreds of dead Keyblades stuck in the ground of this barren wasteland.

But in the center, in one of the few clearings, kneels the figure in the red and gold armor, hands propped up on the hand guard of his Keyblade.

With the winds acting the way they are, it's easy to hear them cutting and ringing through the hollow shell that is the armor. You can't mistake the ringing of empty metal for anything else.]

[darkshield]

[Riku follows right behind, soon followed by Mickey. Though when they meet the wasteland, no matter how much they warned him about it, he can't help but feel the overwhelming dread lingering in the air. It was almost enough to give him goosebumps.

What actually did the job, however, was the armor in the clearing in front of them.]

...Sora? [Is he hearing things or-? No, there's no way he is hearing things.] It's empty.

[crowncharm]

It... is? [He frowns, puzzled, and closes his eyes to listen better.

Sure enough, there's that sound - wind cutting through empty armor. He opens his eyes and looks back at the armor, only for him to go completely white.] Riku...?

[He just. Gulps. This makes the fight he had with the guy (with it?) even more terrifying.] If it's empty... then how is it looking up at us?

[quakega]

[No, Sora's not imagining it. The armor's helm is no longer hanging down, but looking up and right at it's sudden visitors.

Then the helm turns, 'eyes' falling right on Sora.] You return, young Bearer.

[Oh. Shit. It talks. Words carried on the wind, with a metallic ring to them.] If you wish to challenge me again, I will not dissuade you. However, all I have left to offer you is my hatred of Xehanort.

[The 'head' then turns, looking right at Riku. A few seconds of silence hang in the air, before it speaks again.] You... I know you...

[It's not getting up. Yet. Only continuing to talk. It almost sounds as if talking is putting a strain on it, somehow. But the words this time carry no anger, no sense of fatigue. Just an odd sense of 'happy' and 'proud'.] It looks like... you found me, friend.

[W e l p.]

[risingland]

[Oh crap it's looking right at them and it's talking and he knows that voice. It's the same voice he remembers from his childhood, the one on the beach...]

...Yeah. Took me long enough, huh.

[Somewhere in there, there's a bit of embarrassment. ...Somewhere.]
