Chapter 2: The Training Commences
"Sora, you'll need to have a lot of patience for this kind of training" Leon said.
"Sure, but what are we going to do?" Sora questioned.
"You'll see, Yuffie, train Sora on defense." The Garden then formed a wall just like the Coliseum. Yuffie then started to flip backwards towards the edge and started throwing her boomerangs at Sora. Leon told Sora to concentrate on each of the boomerangs and he will dodge them. Sora did as he was told and everything seemed like time slowed down. He then easily dodged them.
"That's enough Yuffie!" Leon shouted. Yuffie stopped and Leon told Sora to rest and that that was the rest of his training for today. The next year was extremely tough training that could have killed Sora. He learned how to summon magic without his Keyblade. The last day of his training, Sephiroth then created an artificial heartless. He told Sora that if he concentrates on the heartless, he would be able to shoot a beam of light from his hand at it and immediately destroy it. Sora then held out his hand and pointed it towards the heartless, concentrated and this gigantic beam of radiant light shot from his hand and killed the heartless. Leon told Sora his training was complete when Cloud told him that it wasn't. Everyone thought that he had done everything.
"Sora, do you still have your superglide ability?" Cloud asked.
"Yeah, why?"
"Concentrate while you glide and you will start to fly without your little pixie dust."
Sora took a few tries and couldn't do it. When he thought of Kairi while he was gliding, he suddenly found himself flying.
Sora then collapsed and asked Sephiroth if he know how to travel to other worlds. He said no.
