[Location: Destiny Island. Time: six months following the permanent defeat of Master Xehanort]
It was always sunny at the island where Sora and his friends grew up, but the fact that they have triumphed over a truly unspeakable darkness made this day in particular even more so than it already was. They were seen playing and relaxing on the beach as they always have, this time however wearing actual beach wear in favor over their usual garments, which were being hung to dry after being washed in the good water pond (I mean who want to wash their clothes in salt water?).
As the day was coming to a close, they were all seen lying down listening to the waves crashing onto the shore and the soft summer breeze in the wind. After moments of absolute silence, Sora decides to break said quiet and spoke.
"Even after everything we have been through, I still can't believe it… the greatest threat to all worlds has finally been vanquished for good."
"Maybe now everyone can enjoy the same peace and quiet that we all are right now." Kairi chipped in.
"That doesn't mean our profession as Guardians of Light is going to end anytime soon. No doubt they are still some people that want to see the world's burns just for laughs." Riku stated,
"Which is why we have to savor these precious moments while we still can. It may not last forever, but it'll last." Sora replied
[Location: Radiant Garden. Time: a few hours prior to celebration on Destiny Island]
Leon, or should we call him Squall Leonhart like he promised when his home world was restored, was going through Ansem's research papers and throwing them in a nearby pre-lit fireplace. While he doesn't take pride in what he doing right now, he figured that this would no doubt be what Ansem the Wise would have wanted: to make sure that the worlds never have another Xehanort to deal with. Yuffie and the others are doing their part as well to assure that the worlds, as well as light and darkness entirely, remain at peace for as long as it lasts. Suddenly Aerith approaches Squall, exhausted from the running, and holding what appears to be a message in a bottle. How that works without water for this case, Eraqus only knows.
Aerith then said in an exhausted tone "Here it's for you, your eyes only."
He opens it the bottle, unwinds the note, and reads it. After he has read it, he does his signature gesture whenever he seems distraught about something and states "I knew this peace wouldn't last long. Yuffie, you take over. I got a message to send to our friendly world's wide Keyblade wielder."
"Ten-Four, Squall" the ninja legend replied, sounding as chipper as ever. Leon then leaves for Merlin's place to prepare a letter for Sora.
[Later back at the Island]
While the three young but well versed Guardians of Light were lying down on the shore, a message in a bottle was then washed up on shore. Since it was closet to Riku at the time he instinctively picked it up to see if was from the King, but found that it didn't have the seal that he was so use to by now. Instead he sees a lion's head crest on it.
He passed it to Sora and asks "Hey Sora, does this symbol look familiar to you?" He took a glimpse at it, only then to snatch it out of Riku's hands and answers "You bet I do, Riku. That's the Griever crest, Leon's signature symbol. Now let's see what he has to say." He peers at the note and it reads
'Sora, I hope this finds you as quickly as humanely possible. We have a serious problem on our hands, but I think you are no doubt perfect for defusing this situation as quickly as it emerged. Head to Yen Sid's Tower for further instructions, and come alone if you can. I advise utilizing your Keyblade Armor instead of waiting on the Gummi Ship; no doubt you could use the extra practice with it.
-Squall'
"Well what does it says guys?" Kairi asked, just curious as Riku by the look of things.
"It says there is a special mission for me and that I must do it without your guys' help, maybe even without Donald and Goofy from what this letter suggests." Sora answered
"Are you kidding me!? It took all of us everything we had just to defeat Xehanort! If this mission is as dangerous as we predict it would, then it'll take nothing less than that for this as well." Riku retorted, sounding agitated that this may be a suicide mission.
"You should have to worry too much, guys. Need I remind you that I was dead before and came right back. Whatever this has in store can't be any worse." Sora chimed in with his confidence ever strong. As Sora turned in to call it a day and get ready for tomorrow, Kairi then yelped "Wait!"
"Huh?" just as he turned back to face his lover, not only was he greeted by a well-enduring kiss for good luck for his journey, but also gave him her good-luck charm from those years back, which in turn forges the Oathkeeper, and said "It helped you three times over before, maybe it can do it again."
"Thanks" Sora replied. Riku then butted in and parted with his own charm, the one that forms the Oblivion Keyblade and said "Here, I know it may remind of the things I've done when I wasn't myself at the time, but it may just pull you out of a tight one as well. And that way, well always be with you in spirit."
Sora responded "Yeah, just like old times right? Well, we better call it a day. Tomorrow will no doubt be something else."
[The Following day at the Island]
"Well, this is it…" Sora sighed "Like we said yesterday: it'll only last so long so it is best that was cherished it."
"Yeah, well I know you can handle yourself pretty well, but still…" Riku said, shooting a look of concern "It's not I suspect that they're sending you on a suicide mission on purpose. I think this might be more that we use to handle back then; I'm getting rather uneasy about this."
"Riku's right, Sora" Kairi pitched in "I thought I lost you once before years ago and I'll be peeved if I ever let it come true this time around"
"Please guys! Calm down!" Sora replied sounding rather agitated "Well find out what this is about when we cross that bridge." Then Sora dons his Armor and activates his Glider "But right now, I bet Yen Sid is getting impatient. He is always the type of person where time is of the essence. So who would blame him?" He takes off to stars…
"Good luck old friend and Godspeed." Riku said
"Come back alive, I beg of you" Kairi quietly pleaded
[In the Lanes Between]
"I don't think I'll ever get tired of this new found freedom! Not only can I leave whatever world whenever I want, but this is way more nimble than just sitting in a cockpit." Sora exclaimed, still pleased with how well he has progressed since he picked up these new tricks of the old days. "What's more: it no longer matters that the path between Twilight Town and his tower was destroyed, and personally I think it's all for the better; don't want any unwanted visitors trying an attempt on his live right?" he continued.
[Later, just outside The Mysterious Tower]
Sora had made his entry; he reverted his Keyblade Glider back to its standard weapon form and deactivated his Armor. He made his way through the hall and stairway, completely Dusk free. He enter the room, greeted by Yen Sid's ever stern and stalwart expression, and started "Master Yen Sid, I'm here for the secret mission that Leo- erm…Squall mentioned."
"And not a moment too soon either." Yen Sid answered back, just as he was about to smite a Neoshadow heartless. While he would pay no mind to the Heartless' futile attempts on the life of great master, Sora couldn't help but notice something most peculiar about this one: it's eyes were glowing blood red instead of the traditional yellow. With a simple slash of his Keyblade, Yen Sid disposes of the last of the intruders. "I'm sure you have plenty of questions right about now. Let's start off with the most curious one, shall we?" The great master says as he retakes his seat in from of his desk.
"Yeah I noticed something about that heartless: its eyes were red. Why is that?" Sora asked "It is that the ones that you fought are stronger, or were they somehow altered in some way?"
"I feel that you're right on both ends, Sora. Not only were they stronger, they seemed to have been smarter, more vicious, and way more organized than the ones we are used to fighting. I fear that someone out there is trying to play god among the darkness." Yen Sid concurred "There have been many a villain that tried so, but this takes everything about such a concept to an even higher degree. It's like they were spawned of a truly dark entity; perhaps one older than even most worlds." He continued.
"Something even older than the worlds themselves!? Man, Riku and Kairi were right: I'm totally going to have my work cut out this time…" Sora shouted
"I know what they were telling you. They think I would willingly lead you to your own death, but trust my wisdom on this one as you always have in the past. I feel that when you enter this new unique world, you'll become stronger already and you will leave a better man." Yen Sid explained himself
"Well, I hardly doubted you in the past so far so I don't see the harm in giving the benefit of a doubt. So what are my orders, Master?"
"Head to this world, find this entity, and destroy it. I have noticed a pattern of which they travel in. Strangely enough, they ignore all of those other worlds straight out in order to hasten their futile attempts on my life. I will map it for you." Yen Sid instructed while showing him the route to this new world.
"Understood, sir! Guess I'm heading off." Sora salutes, dons his Armor again, jumps out the window lands on his Keyblade Glider, and takes off for what may very well be his greatest challenge ever.
[After a long journey through the Lanes Between]
"Hmm… I can't help but get the feeling that I'm being followed…" Sora then turns around and sees that he is indeed being followed by a familiar vessel. "Wait a second, I know that ship anywhere!" He approached it to see the cockpit and his suspicions were confirmed.
"Hehehehehe…." Donald chuckled lightly.
"Uh oh, he caught us red handed!" Goofy added knowing that their attempt to tail their friend of many adventures was thwarted easily.
"Donald! Goofy! I knew you guys couldn't help but need to look over me. Well, I suppose it can't be helped. Let's go." Sora chimed in, proceeded to take the lead to his destination.
Later after the happy reunion, they seem to have reached their destination. It was fogged up from where Sora was at right now, then asked his friends "You think this is the place, guys?" no response "Guys…?" He then decides to head over to the cockpit and found that they were completely exhausted, most likely from being this close to the world they were about to enter. "NO! Damn, so this is why I was supposed to be here alone! I'm the only able bodied person who isn't affect by whatever is doing this to them." He then enters the Gummi Ship, turns on the ship's auto-pilot function, set its course for King Mickey's Castle, left them a message that they were being drained just by being near this particular world, even while being shielded by the Gummi Ship, and left the ship to take them home. Thus doing exactly what Yen Sid told him in the first place and making this a solo mission, save for anyone on that world that could be sympathetic with his cause.
He then enters this new world, and deactivates his Armor. He looks from side to side, curious of any significant things that sticks out. He then hears a small tremor from where he is at, slowly turns around and… he couldn't believe what he just saw: a city that appears to double as a school, or maybe the other way around. He didn't know just yet. All he does know is that this place already makes the Nobody's HQ look like a sand castle. The only thing he say from now was "…what have I just gotten myself into…?"
[Yesterday at Radiant Garden]
Aerith then said in an exhausted tone "Here it's for you, your eyes only."
He opens it the bottle, unwinds the note, and reads it and it says:
'Squall -
I hope this letter gets to you ASAP. As I need not remind you, our mutual friend from my end has been assassinated months back, no traces of a …heartless was it? Nothing. Either his heart was off limits or the little maniac had no intention of turning him. His little you know what has been as stubborn as the man that barely raised her; I can't get through to her. I think she's not the only one that could use some help here. I fear that this world of ours will no doubt be the epicenter of a new type of apocalypse and I think that prodigy of yours can help turn that tides in favor of the light. Send him here as soon as you receive this message.
Your old friend
A.M.
After he has read it, he does his signature gesture whenever he seems distraught about something.
A/N: The world introduction animation would be this: The tower sticking out complete with a silhouette of Satsuki on the top, bright lights emitted, wind blowing in her hair, and standing in her signature pose with her signature sword. Then after that would come four familiar silhouettes. the first is that of Houka sitting in a chair back hunched for him to get close to his laptop, forming a "C" like shape. Second is of Uzu just standing tall and proud forming a simple "I". Third is that of Ira with his arms stretched out wide, making a "T" shape. And last is Nonon with her arms in the air at an angle, almost like she's in the shape of a "Y". After the elites appear, the Satsuki silhouette then slams her sword into the ground below and her number then change into the letters of which described there prior postures and the word "Honno-Ji" then appear from the courtyard below.
