It had all happened so quickly, there had barely been any time to react. Mickey had watched in surprise as Sora, Donald and Goofy jumped over the ledge, only catching up to them as the Nobody opponent was dissipating. They had talked for only moments before there was an explosion, and suddenly Goofy was pushing him out of the way.
Mickey stared as a rock fell heavily on Goofy's head, throwing him across the courtyard. Sora and Donald ran towards him, seemingly in slow motion, as Mickey watched, horrified.
"No…"
Mickey heard nothing of what Sora and Donald said as they kneeled by Goofy's body, only undistinguishable noise seeping through the haze of shock that had settled around him.
He was my Captain… the King's Captain… and I failed him. He'll never get to finish what he started, he'll never be able to help Sora and Donald again…
He'll never get to save the world.
"Goofy…?"
Donald's cry of anguish and Sora's desperate broke through Mickey's shock and he looked away from Goofy's body. "They'll pay for this," he growled as he glared at the spot where Demyx had stood that short time ago.
Mickey tore the Organization cloak off and flung it aside, inwardly disgusted that he had had to dress as one of them; one of the ones who had caused Goofy's death. He summoned his Keyblade, and darted away, determined to defeat Organization XIII. If he did so, he hoped against hope that he would have tied one of Goofy's loose ends, considering Goofy was no longer around to do it himself.
