Reunions: Terra, Aqua, Ventus Ch. 1
This takes place after Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance. (SPOILERS: DO NOT READ THIS FANFIC IF
YOU HAVE NOT PLAYED AND BEATEN THE GAME ALREADY) Remember when Ansem the wise told Riku
that Sora could possibly be able to bring back the hearts and existences of those connected to him? This
is about Sora trying to use this power for the first time. Enjoy. This is also my first fanfic ever.
Sora and Riku sat together at their usual spot on the tree, looking out over the ocean. Kairi was
off training with Yen Sid. (More spoilers: In the secret ending, it shows that Yen Sid had Riku bring Kairi
to him because she can wield a keyblade).
"So… Ansem the Wise said that I could use my heart to bring people back?" Sora asked.
"Yeah," Riku replied. He stared back over the ocean. "Do you think… maybe you should try it
out? It could help us fight against Xehanort."
"I'm not sure… do you think I'm ready?" Sora asked.
"If that's what your heart tells you."
"Who do you think I should bring back? Or… should I let my heart tell me that too?" asked Sora.
"Sure. I mean, your heart's usually right, isn't it?" Riku smiled. That was the thing about Sora- he
let his heart guide him.
"All right," said Sora. He closed his eyes and began to search his heart.
Aqua sat alone on the shore of the Dark Margin. Another day was passing by. Of course, there
was no such thing as time there. She had lost track of it, anyways.
Aqua sighed. She longed to make it back to the world. She had promised Ven that she would wake
him up, but as time passed, she slowly lost hope.
Aqua was not actually alone. To her right sat the man in a black coat. He was the only other
person there- the only one to talk to. He could not even remember his name- he only had scraps of his
memory left.
"There may actually be a way to make it back, Aqua"
"Wait- what?" Aqua was confused.
"Remember Sora?" he asked. Aqua nodded. "I have realized that since his heart is connected to
so many others, he may have the power to bring them back. I have also realized that yours is one of
those hearts. Strange, isn't it, that things just pop into our heads?" He chuckled.
"A… a way back?" Aqua began to fill with hope. "When do you think he'll have mastered this
power?"
"I have no way of knowing. It could be years, it could be days."
Suddenly, a doorway of light appeared a short distance from her.
"Ahh… speak of the devil," said the man.
Aqua stood up. She felt the light from the doorway. It was… familiar. A memory appeared in her
mind- that of a little boy named Sora.
"Go on," said the man. "Go to your friends."
Aqua smiled. She would soon be back to keep her promises.
Terra, Ven… See you soon.
