Over the years, I've had many dreams.

Some good, some not.

I've dreamt of what happened, what I could have done to prevent it. I've dreamt of my battle with Vanitas, and what may have happened if I wasn't so weak. If I were stronger, my Keyblade would never have been drawn.

I've dreamt of Terra. I've dreamt about what it felt like to be him, for darkness to have such an unbreakable hold on his heart, and how it must have been to succumb to it. How it must have hurt for him to watch and know he caused his entire world to crumble.

I've dreamt of Aqua. I've dreamt of how much she's probably done by now. How many people she's met, how many wonders she's seen. In some dreams I was fortunate enough to have her think about me all the time, once she even visited! But...in others...I had been nothing but a burden long abandoned. A memory, faded into almost nothingness.

I've dreamt of the people I met those few days. I've dreamt of what life was for them before we came, and of what it might have been after. Even how it could have been if I never encountered them. Would it be the same?

I've dreamt of the boy. The spiky haired brunette who was kind enough to give my heart shelter and warmth when I needed it most. I've dreamt of us meeting one day, in person. In the dreams we were talking and laughing like the best of friend. I even introduced him to Aqua and Terra!

With all of the "good" dreams I have, sometimes its difficult telling fact from fiction, even reality and fantasy. Its only because of my nightmares that I know. The ones where I kill the master, not Terra. The ones that Vanitas won, or that we were never even seperated. The ones where I only brought destruction where I walked. The ones where I killed, even the people I care about the most, even Aqua and Terra, with a smile of pure joy painted across my features.

As I said before, I've had many dreams. And with that comes nightmares. But still with that said, there is one that lies above both dream and nightmare. The dream I have the most often, that is both the greatest dream and worst nightmare of them all,

The one where I woke up.
