Nowe was walking around the valley trying to remember where everything is and at times he did get lost. Nowe was happy to be back in the valley again but he just wished he was in the one with all of his friends. Nowe walked to the waterfall, and he remembered that this was the place where everyone found out that Nowe wasn't like every other domehead, but things were also better at the same time, he was able to be honest with everyone and he was able to get closer with everyone too. Nowe wanted to see the view on top of the path above the waterfall.
Nowe smiled as he started running and jumped onto one of the rocks and flowmotion. Nowe jumped up as he flipped into the air, and summoned one of his keyblades and threw it at the path and teleported there. He used it before when he saved Patch, it was a skill Nowe was able to use now thanks to the training he had when he was on Warfang. Nowe was able to learn a lot of new ways of using his magic, and this was one of many tricks Nowe could do now. He spend about a month there, to help the rebuild and as he was there to spend time with his friends. Nowe was still wondering how Spyro was and what it would be like if he did go with him. Nowe asked Spyro if he wanted to come with him because this way Nowe could show Spyro the worlds, and also so he could have a friend with him. It was nice to be traveling worlds but it would be better if he had a partner. After two worlds Nowe had traveled to on his own, he missed being with the others. He could still remember being with Mickey and as they traveled the worlds, it was fun yet serious at the same time. It was nice to have someone backing him up. But still he wonders how Spyro is doing too, he wonders how everyone was doing. Nowe was lost in thought so much he rarely notice when people are around him.
The view from the top was nice, Nowe could feel the cold water hit his face, and see the rainbow above the waterfall. He could see most of the valley and it was a nice sight, he just wished that Spyro could see this. Nowe sat down and just admired the view and enjoyed it as long as he can before he had to fight again.
Meanwhile Littlefoot and the others were playing as they usually do but Patch wasn't in the mood to play today. He was busy walking around and thinking about the things that happened yesterday. He was going to the waterfall but he didn't know that Nowe was up there. He couldn't stop thinking about yesterday, and he still felt sore after the battle. He couldn't stop thinking about it and how weak he really is compared to Sharptooth and Nowe. As he made it up the path he saw Nowe sitting there enjoying the view. Patch was about to walk back but Nowe saw him. So Patch just walked over and sat down a little bit far from Nowe.
" Ummmm Patch I'm not going to bite, here you can sit a little closer" said Nowe.
Patch nodded and moved closer but he was still feeling weird around Nowe, even tho he saved him yesterday.
" Wow this view is amazing isn't it" said Nowe.
" Yeah I know, this is where I go when I need to be alone" said Patch. Patch could still remember when everyone showed him this place, it was amazing. Patch loved coming up here, and lately he has been coming up there a lot because not many people are willing to go up there anymore.
" So I'm guessing you were hoping to be alone then, well this is your spot I'll go then" said Nowe.
" No it's fine I don't mind, sorry it just I can't stop thinking about yesterday" said Patch. Nowe noticed how sad he looked when he said that. Nowe didn't know much but he could see sense the anger coming from Patch when he was fighting Sharptooth. Somehow the Sharptooth here is much stronger than the one from the Mysterious Beyond he knew. He might be a nobody but still it shouldn't be this strong or have the power to command the heartless. Nowe sat down right next to Patch and he looked at Patch with a sincere look on his face. " I know it's a little late but thank you, you know for everything". Patch did wanted to be alone because he didn't want anyone to see him cry as he began tearing up. " Yesterday I failed, I couldn't get my revenge….. I couldn't… even protect my mother" cried Patch.
Patch and Littlefoot lost their mother to Sharptooth and it was Littlefoot who took care of him. He didn't want to be weak anymore, he didn't want to be alone. He got his keyblade when they were facing against Sharptooth when they were trying to look for the valley. When Littlefoot came up with the plan to defeat Sharptooth, it made Patch feel safe. But when Sharptooth jumped out of the water and went after Littlefoot, Patch jumped between them trying to protect his brother, and a mysterious key appeared in his hands. Patch was able to send a burst of energy and sent Sharptooth flying back. Now had the power to fight, and he need to be brave as Littlefoot was that day. But he failed his mother, he wish he could do something back then. But he couldn't he was too weak, he didn't want to help from others because it showed he was weak just like before. " I couldn't do anything….. I'm just too weak and pathetic. Why does everyone around me get hurt, they keep getting hurt because too weak to do anything" cried Patch.
As Patch was crying Nowe put his arms around Patch, he held him close for some reason. Nowe was disappointed in himself, he didn't have any words to say to make him feel better all he could do was be there. He held him in his arms, and it was the first thing that came to mind. Patch didn't know how he felt, he was hurting and he was kind of happy that someone was there with him. He cried into Nowe's chest, for the first time in a while he was able to cry in front of someone and for some reason it was in front of Nowe. He couldn't hold it in anymore, and he deep inside that Nowe was the one there instead of the others. Patch barely knew anything about Nowe, but there was something about him, something that made him feel safe. Patch could tell if it was that they were both keyblade wielders, but he didn't know or cared.
After Patch felt better, he apologized for crying in his arms, and he was embarrassed about it. Nowe was just happy he could be there to help, and he realized something Patch and him had a lot in common. They both feel like they need to get stronger for the same reason, so they could protect the ones they care about. Patch was a bit younger but he was in the same position Patch was in during his age. They hated to be alone and they will fight so they don't have to be.
" Hey Nowe, could we keep this a secret, I don't want anyone to know about this" asked Patch, and Nowe agreed to it. Nowe was still wondering what was wrong but now isn't the time to ask. Nowe got up and so did Patch, and looked at the majestic view together. Patch looked at Nowe for a moment and grabbed his hand. Patch formed a small blush on his face from what he just did. He then tried to move his hand away but Nowe grabbed on. Nowe looked at him and smiled. As they just looked at the view, Nowe was happy he made a new friend as his birthday is coming soon. As another year passes without his mother, and his home.
