Jessica's Point of View

Weeks passed since Xemnas found out about my secret. I got to know Demyx better. (Unfortunately.) I walk into the Grey Area excitedly. I'm going to be eight tomorrow, so we're going to have the day off so that we can celebrate my birthday, but today, the day before I turn eight, is the day that Xemnas said I get to do my first solo mission. To my surprise, Xemnas is standing next to Saix in the Grey Area. I walked over to Saix.

"I'm ready for my mission." I announced. "Are you sure you're ready? Did you pack an adequate amount of potions? Do you remember how to use magic? Would you maybe want me to go with you just in case?" Xemnas asked. Could it be that Xemnas is actually nervous?

"I'll be fine Xemnas." I laughed. "She will be alright." Saix assured him. "What kind of mission is it?" I asked. "We're starting you off with something simple. All you need to do is recon on a world that we recently found called Destiny Islands. From what we've seen, there aren't any Heartless there so you probably won't be doing any fighting." Said replied. "Okay then. I'd better get going." I said, leaving through a dark corridor. I came out into Destiny Islands. I looked around. I was on a mini island. Next to me was a tree with star shaped fruit. Tree with star shaped fruit... I know about it from somewhere. Someone told me about it. Oh, that's right.

Flashback

"Somewhere out there, there's this tree with star shaped fruit, and the fruit represents an unbreakable connection, so as long as you and your friends carry good luck charms shaped like it, nothing can ever drive you apart. You'll always find your way back to each other." Aqua had said.

Present

"I remember now... Aqua." I said sadly. I'll have to come back sometime and grab one. Maybe I'll be able to share it with someone someday. Right now though, I have a mission. I'd better leave this tree out of my report. Some things are better left unsaid. Or unwritten as that would be the case. I went to the main Island which was connected by a bridge. There were three figures splashing each other in the beach. One was a boy with spiky brown hair and blue eyes, one was a boy with silver hair and light blue eyes, and the others was a girl with long red hair pulled back into a pony tail with blue eyes. The girl looks familiar. Almost like Kairi. But that can't be Kairi. Kairi... wait. She moved. Is this where she moved to? Nah. Like that could happen. Still... I should go and check. I ran down to the beach. I saw it. The necklace that Aqua had put a spell on all those years ago. That is Kairi. Now this is something I should put in my report. I'd better not talk to her though. I'm not supposed to talk to anyone. I look around the Island for more interesting things, but find nothing. My report is going to suck. I hope they won't decide to not let me go on solo missions anymore. I went through a dark corridor to The Grey Area in The Castle That Never Was, writing my report along the way. Saix and Xemnas were there.

"How did it go? You didn't get hurt, did you? Did you run into any Heartless?" Xemnas asked frantically. Overprotective would be the perfect word to describe Xemnas right now.

"I'm fine. Here's my report. I know that it's not much. I wish it could've been more, but there wasn't much of interest. I don't think I'm cut out for recon." I sighed, handing Saix my report. "That's alright Jessica. It's a fairly quiet world. We just wanted you to start out with something safe." Saix assured me. "Are you sure you're alright?" Xemnas asked. "Oh, I was away from home all by myself. It was so traumatizing." I rolled my eyes. "If you're sure." Xemnas said. Zexion came in the room.

"You're back. How did you do?" He wondered. "She did fine Zexion. Aren't you supposed to be helping Vexen in the lab?" Saix answered for me. "Vexen doesn't need me anymore today. So will you let Jess and I go on missions without supervision now?"

Thought I'd do something special for the 25th chapter. Hope you enjoyed.

Thank you Samantha for your review.
