Chapter 3: Departure

Kairi and Aerith talked for a long while. Aerith left her after about 20 minutes after they had

started talking. She said she was going to get Leon; he had something to tell her. She

wondered what Leon could possibly have to say to her. Leon stalked over about 5 minutes

after Aerith had left.

Leon seemed very urgent. He told her about a group called the Chasers. The thing he told

her next would change her life forever. " You're a keyblade master " Leon told Kairi.

" WHAT! "

" I said...you...are...a keyblade...master "

" Put out your hand " Leon instructed.

Kairi did as she was told and a keyblade with rose features appeared in her hand. She

brandished it at Leon. Leon stepped back. " It's called the Divine Rose " Leon told her.

Leon then explained the tough quest she, Sora, Donald, and Goofy would face. Kairi gasped

at the thought of the quest she was about to face. " I'm ready " Kairi told Leon.

Sora arrived at Leon's about an hour later. Kairi told him she was ready. Donald and Goofy

went to start up the gummi ship. While they went to start the ship, Mickey warned them that

Organization XII had resurfaced and that Roxas was their leader. With this, Sora and company

piled into the gummi ship and zoomed of to start their long and perilous quest.
