HotXbun: This chapter is going to be a bit of a filler, but important filler!
Guest: If only he was that nice.

Yurosoku: Guess you'll have to wait and see.

Chapter 6 Communication
Ven's POV
One Hour Later
All the Union leaders (minus Lauriam) and Lady Ava were talking in a room with a giant round table.
"I feel like I've been here before", I revealed.
"That's because this is the room where we would have our meetings", Ephemer revealed.
I then looked down.
"There's something I don't understand", I revealed. "I thought there were only supposed to be five union leaders. Why are there six?"
"One of us must've been a replacement for Strelitzia after she...didn't show up."
With that...Strelitzia looked down sadly.
I suddenly felt the urge to comfort her. So, I put my hand on top of hers.
She looked up at me in shock...then smiled.
This smile made my heart race. I vowed right there and then that I would do what ever I could to make Strelitzia smile.
"So", Skuld started snapping out of my daze. "How are we gonna get out of here? Whenever I try to create a portal it just won't work."
"Same here", I revealed.
"Me too", Ephemer revealed.
"Me as well", Strelitzia revealed.
"And me", Lady Ava revealed.
"And me", Brain revealed. "And I know why. I researched Scala Ad Caelum many years ago, and found out some very interesting facts. Scala Ad Caelum is built over Daybreak Town, our home."
"Yeah", Ephemer said. "I guessed that from the fact that we're sitting in our old meeting room."
"True", Brain said. "Anyway, once the Keyblade War was over, a young Keyblade wielder rallied all the other surviving wielders together and they rebuilt Scala Ad Caelum. Then the wielder who rallied everyone together was named king, and this king did not want any harm to come to his subjects. So, he made a deal with a witch. He would allow her to take anybody who did wrong as a servant, and in return, she would put a spell on Scala Ad Caelum that made it so not just anybody could get in, or out."
"Then How did the Master of Masters and the Foretellers get in", I asked.
"I don't know", Brain replied.
With that I looked down sadly.
"If only there was a way to tell our friends where we are", I said. "They'd know what to do."
Then...Skuld seemed to get an idea.
"Maybe we can", she stated.
"How", I asked.
"When Sora was being held captive by my father, he would receive letters that Kairi had sent him."
"You're right", I said. "And Kairi got a letter from Sora when he escaped."
"Who's Kairi and Sora", Brain asked.
"Their friends of Skuld and I", I revealed. "Two months ago Xig...Luxu was keeping Sora captive, but he would receive letters from Kairi, the girl he loved."
"Kairi and Sora love each more than anything", Skuld stated. "I believe that it was their love for each other that guided the letters."
When Brain heard this...he scoffed.
"Okay, he started. "That's sweet and all, but I don't think love can guide a letter."
"Only one way to find out."
Sora's POV [Kingdom Hearts Extra: This is the first time the story's in Sora's POV.]
One Hour Later
Aqua ran into Ansem the Wise's mansion...with a letter in her hand.
"Guys", she yelled. "I've got a letter from Ven and Alexa!"
"Give me that woman", Demyx commanded before grabbing the letter and beginning to read it.
Dear whoever finds this
Ven here. Just want to let you know that Skuld and I are okay, and that we're in Scala Ad Caelum, the place we last saw Master Xehanort and Master Eraqus.
"Scala Ad Caelum", I asked in confusion. "What are they doing there?"
"This has 'Xigbar' written all over it", Axel stated.
"Okay", Demyx started. "I am very confused. What is Scala Ad Caelum?"
"It's the place we last saw Master Xehanort and Master Eraqus in", Roxas revealed.
"Yeah", Demyx said. "Still don't get it."
"We don't have to get it", Isa stated. "All we need is to get to it."
"And how will we do that", Xion asked. "We got there through Kingdom Hearts."
"And the last time Kingdom Hearts showed up was during our last battle with Organisation XII", Riku reminded.
"Well then", Demyx started. "Looks like we'll have to start a war. Who wants to be on my team?!"
"Stop it", Lea commanded.
I then looked at the king, who seemed to be thinking about something.
"What is it your Majesty", I asked.
"I think I know how we can get there."
The Next Day
We were all in the Gummi Ship on our way to...the Keyblade Graveyard.
Never thought I'd go back there again. But then again, I never thought I'd go back to Scala Ad Caelum either.
I looked over at Kairi, who was burying her head into her knees.
"Are you okay", I asked in concern.
"I'm fine", Kairi stated without even looking up, which is how I knew that she was not fine.
"Okay everybody", the king said. "Warping to the Keyblade Graveyard in three, two, one..."
Ten Minutes Later
The Gummi Ship handed and the hatch opened.
And as soon as it did...Kairi ran out!
"Kairi", I yelled before running after her.
She was on the ground...vomiting.
I ran to her and held her hair back and rubbed her back.
"Thanks", she said weakly when she was done vomiting.
She then turned around and sat down.
"Are you okay Kairi", Naminé asked in concern as she walked up to us.
"I'm fine", Kairi replied. "I probably just got a bit ship sick that's all."
"You okay to keep going", I asked.
Kairi just nodded.
"Okay", I said. "Let's go then."
One Hour Later
We made it through the labyrinth.
We were now in the last place where we saw Kingdom Hearts.
This is also the place where...where Xehanort killed Kairi.
I held onto her hand and looked at her closely.
I could tell that she was thinking about what happened as well.
"Don't worry Kairi", I reassured. "I won't let something like that happen again."
With that Kairi looked at me in shock.
Then...she nodded.
"I know you won't."
With that I looked at the king...who summoned something.
It was...the X-Blade.
"Ooo", Demyx said in awe. "Give me!"
With that Demyx tried to grab the X-Blade, but Isa held onto the back of his shirt and pulled him back.
"Oh come on", Demyx said before looking at the king. "Please a kingliness. I don't have a Keyblade anymore!"
"I'm sorry Demyx", the king apologised. "But the X-Blade should only be used when absolutely necessary."
With that Demyx pouted.
"Alright everybody", the king said. "Get your Keyblades out! We'll summon Kingdom Hearts together!"
"I would", Demyx said. "But I don't have a Keyblade!"
"Okay", Isa said before grabbing onto Demyx's shirt. "Come with me."
With that Isa dragged Demyx to the side.
The king then pointed the X-Blade towards the sky...and fired a beam of light at it.
The rest of us did the same. Then...Kingdom Hearts appeared!
"It worked", the king said happily. "Alright everybody! Let's go!"
Ten Minutes Later
We had arrived in Scala Ad Caelum.
"Ooo", Demyx said in awe. "It's like a resort! You guys can go back if you want to, I'm staying here!"
Everybody just looked at Demyx in annoyance.
"Alright everybody", Mickey said. "Let's spit up! It'll make it quicker to find Ven and Skuld."
...
HotXbun: Alright everybody! We should be getting some battles in the next chapter!
Challenge: Tell me what you think is going to happen next.
My Answer: Not telling!
