Sorry for the delay. I've been taking Drivers Ed. Here's the second chapter. I hope you enjoy it. Please read, review, and enjoy.

"One, two, one, two, one, two, one, two." Terra chanted as he performed his hand stands. Terra was always thought to be odd when it came to spending the day off. Ventus would either watch TV or play outside. Aqua would either meditate or go in the library. Vanitas would just sleep the day away. But Terra would spend the day in his room working out, either lifting weights or doing hand stands. Some might think of this as overachieving, but Terra prefered to think of this as a preemptive strike. After all, one never knows when the Master would pull a surprise training drill on them.

Terra's training regiment was soon interrupted by a knock at the door. Jumping off of his hands and popping a few bones in his neck, Terra looked through the peephole to see Vanitas at the door. Terra and Vanitas... weren't exactly friends. It was more of a mutual respect. They rarely talked to each other outside of training. Terra sometimes wondered if Vanitas remembered that he existed. Though he initially wanted to tell Vanitas to buzz off for interrupting his exercise, he decided to be nice, at least for Ven's sake. With his decision made, Terra opened the door. "Hey."

"Hey, Terra." came the reply.

"So, you finally know my name huh?" Terra said with a hint of sarcasm.

"Ha, ha." Vanitas deadpanned, not sharing Terra's humor. "I always knew your name, but that's besides the point. Can I come in?"

"Sure." he said after a few seconds of hesitation. Vanitas walked into the room and sat on a nearby chair. Terra plopped himself on his bed. "So, what brings you to my room?"

"I wanted to ask your opinion about something." Vanitas replied.

"Well, shoot." Terra said.

"Alright," Vanitas began, "Theoretical question: Say you met someone, someone very nice, and you had to do something nice for them. How would you go about it?"

"Huh." Terra said to himself, not expecting that exact question. "Well, I would just give them a gift, nothing fancy, just something to show I appreciate them."

"But what if they don't care to much for gifts?" Vanitas asked in response. "What if they're the type of girl who just likes to be kind?"

"So this is a girl we're talking about." Terra said, a bit stunned at the revelation.

"Shit." Vanitas mentally swore. He wasn't supposed to let that detail slip. It seemed Terra wasn't as thick as he thought. Well, there was no sense in denying it. He might as well come clean. "It was a girl I met in Radiant Garden. It's her birthday today, and I want to do something nice for her."

Now this was stunning. Terra never thought Vanitas would want to do something nice for anyone, much less a girl. Part of him wondered if this really was Vanitas he was talking to. "You like her?" he asked.

"Not in the way you're thinking."

"She's a friend?"

"I would say more like acquaintance." Vanitas replied. He wasn't ready to use foreign terms such as friend.

"Oh." Terra said. "Well, just go with my suggestion. Give them a gift. Now, the most important rule is to make sure it comes from your heart. What better way to impress this person than to show them that you can be as kind as them?"

"From my heart." Vanitas repeated, shaking his head. "Terra, you are asking the impossible of me."

The statement actually got a laugh from both boys. Terra always found Vanitas' sense of humor to be a bit... warped, to put it mildly. Vanitas' jokes almost always involved people getting hurt. It was actually refreshing to hear him joke about something other than people's pain.

"Well, I wouldn't say impossible." Terra said.

"Why's that?"

"You've been nice to us. Well, I wouldn't say nice. I mean, you can be an asshole at times, but you've gotten better about it."

"Hmm." Vanitas mumbled. Though a part of his mind viciously wanted to deny that. Even he had to admit that this is the most civil he's been. "Well, thanks for the talk Terra." Vanitas said as he walked out of the door.

"Sure." Terra replied. "I guess Ven's therapy is working." he thought as he got back to exercising.

Well, another chapter done. So we know Vanitas' plan for the wayfinders, but who's he going to give them to? Of course I'm not going to tell you. But I will give you two hints:

1. It's not an OC.

2. It's not Kairi.

So who is it? You'll have to read on to find out. Next chapter will be up soon.
