"Donald, Goofy, come on," called Sora, snapping the two out of a trance.
Goofy and Donald turned and ran to Sora's side.
"What do we do now Sora?" asked Donald.
"If we knew that, it wouldn't be much of an adventure, now would it?"
responded Sora. "Either way, lets go look around Traverse Town."
And so the three wandered out of the cavern into the alleyway. They all remembered the place well. They had returned to it countless times during their first great adventure. They had unlocked its secrets and grown comfortable to its streets. Its inhabitants had been their best friends and greatest aids in their journeys. But what the trio was to encounter was as much the same as it was different. Cid, Leon, and the others had returned to Hollow Bastion. Only the native inhabitants remained in the place. The shops were still thriving and the people were happy. Sora and his band began to talk to the people.
Inside the accessory shop, the man working at the counter had a lot to say. "Hey, remember me! It's been a long time, hasn't it.? What brings you back by this way? Care to buy anything, need a place to stay? I hope your journey was easy. So how are things?" "We don't need to by anything, we've really just returned to travel to other worlds," stated Sora. "Oh, that reminds me! That fella Cid, he left some things for you. Told me just to wait, you'd be back. He took that gummi ship of his and said he was going home," responded the salesman as he handed a bag to the travelers.
With that, Sora, Donald, and Goofy walked out to the street to examine the contents of the bag. Inside, Sora found some Elixirs, a few Tents, a few enchanted relics, and a note. The note read: "Dear Sora and friends, I know this stuff probably won't come in much handy to veterans like you three, but maybe it'll be of some use down line. Sorry we can't be there to greet you, but you know we returned to our home planet. We all knew that you'd find a way to get back here. Even Leon with all his talk about barriers never doubted your abilities. We await your arrival at Hollow Bastion, as we know that you will come our way again in your search for Kairi, Riku, and King Mickey. By the way, you may wanna check out that bell tower, I think it hasn't fulfilled its usefulness yet. Sincerely, Cid"
"That's good enough for me," stated Sora when he had finished the letter. "Let's go guys, we've still gotta figure out a way to travel between planets. But where do we start." Sighing, Sora slumped his head to think. "Wait! I've got it!" Sora exclaimed. "Well, what is it Sora?" questioned Goofy.
"We still can't use the gummi ship right? So we'll just have to find more doorways that connect the planets. The one between your world and Traverse Town can't be the only one, right? That must be what Cid meant about the bell tower. So let's get to it!" spelled out Sora.
And so the three great warriors were about to embark further upon their greatest quest yet. But great darkness loomed near in their futures. Sinister forces were at work and the trio would soon encounter some of their greatest adversaries since the many forms of Ansem. The boy, his Keyblade, and his two companions were prepared however, for whatever lie ahead.
