Feeling the warm breeze, Zashi slowly started to open his eyes; getting adjusted to the sunset, he found himself looking to the sky. Sitting up, he took in his surroundings, it was his world, he was sitting on the concrete wall, and he noticed the bench where Marlena and Iris used to sit with him and stare out into the ocean. He got to his feet and looked to his left, and to his right, and from the corner of his eye, he saw a person standing at the water's edge. "Hello?" Zashi said, slowly walking toward the personage, he placed his right hand onto the person's shoulder and she turned around, "Zashi…You've finally found me…" It was Iris, standing in front of him, however a frown came across her face, "its too bad you didn't save me in time…" with that, her skin started to turn black, and her eyes shone a dull yellow, and morphed into a heartless, and pounced on Zashi.
Sweat dripped from his chin as Zashi sat right up, clenching his heart; looking around he realized it was only a dream, and threw the covers from his body and put his feet on the floor, and slowly rose from the bed. Just then, a knock came from the door and it slowly creaked open, revealing Melanie, "Well it looks like your awake…" Moving from the door, she walked to Zashi, who held his head from the dream, "how long was I asleep?" Reaching for a towel, Melanie handed it to Zashi, "for about two days now…I'm amazed your awake already." Taking the towel, he wiped the sweat from his head and placed the towel on the table saying, "after what happened on your world, I was sent to Hollow Bastion and I came across something…" With that, he held his right hand out, and the dark key blade appeared. "Wow…what is it?" Melanie asked, looking over the weapon with interest, "It's a key blade, it's meant to seal the world's heart…But I don't know why this one is black…"
The door slowly creaked open again, revealing a man with a vertical scar across his face, and wearing a leather jacket with a fur collar, and a necklace attached with a lion. "Your awake. Good, we need to talk to you about Marlena." Zashi quickly turned around, hearing the man's voice, his eyes lit up, "Do you know where she is?" The man just shook his head, and motioned for Zashi and Melanie to follow, and walking through a hallway, and leaving the building, the walked for about five minutes, and came to a little house with a single window. The man knocked on the door three times, and a click was heard, and the door slowly swung open, and he walked inside, followed by Zashi and Melanie. Looking around the tiny room, there were two other people inside, one had long brown hair and shimmering green eyes, with a pink dress, the other had a grey bandana, and a yellow scarf around her neck, with a green shirt and a pair of khaki shorts.
"Hello. My name is Aerith." She extended her hand to both of them, and pointed to the other girl, "that is Yuffie, and this…" pointing to the man leaning against the wall, "is Leon." Leon sat down at the table and said, "Marlena came through here a few days ago, and asked us to talk to you Zashi." This caught his attention right away, and sat across from Leon, "she told us that there might be something at Hollow Bastion and that Rizu may have something up his sleeve." Zashi spaced out for a moment, refreshing his mind when he was at Hollow Bastion and said, "I just came from Hollow Bastion…I was in the library when I met Sora…" Leon interrupted Zashi, "You've met with Sora? What did he say?" He shook his head and continued, "Nothing much, just that he was still looking for his friends…and then he left. But I did find his…" Zashi extended his right hand, and summoned the key blade. Leon's eyes grew wide as he looked at the blade and said, "That's the key blade Marlena warned us about…" Confusion swept Zashi's face "what did she tell you about this key blade?" Leon swallowed the lump in his throat and said, "Marlena was looking into a rumor that the Heartless were making their own key blade, designed to unlock worlds' hearts." After hearing this, Zashi quickly set the key blade onto the table and walked away from the table and starred out the window. Melanie slowly walked to the table and sat down, and got a good look at the weapon, and slowly reached for the key blade, touching the hilt, the weapon started to vibrate and shake across the table.
Leon and Melanie quickly moved away from the table and Zashi turned to see what was going on: Darkness shone from the weapon, a loud screeching came from the blade, everyone shut their ears due to the pain and suddenly it was over. Everyone walked to the table to see what had happened to the key blade, it had changed its shape and now it became Oblivion, the key blade Zashi had before he had his memory sealed away. Swallowing the lump in his throat, Zashi reached for the key blade, and grabbed its hilt, yet nothing happened to him. He marveled at the weapon and said, "Ansem's voice is gone…I can't feel any darkness in it." Leon looked at Melanie and said, "all you did was touch it right?" Melanie looked at Leon and gave a nod. "All Melanie did was touch the key blade and it changed…" Zashi thought to himself, "I wonder if Melanie is a Key blade wielder…"
