leon. merlin wants to see...oh hi donald, goofy." said a young woman. she had green eyes and long brown hair held up with a pink ribbon. she wore a pink sleeve less dress, and a short red jacket that is cut a little way below her breasts. "merlin will have to wait." leon replied. "so where is sora? and why are you two here alond?" a little confused with the questions and curoius about the answers aerith sat down in a chair to hear donald and goofy's story. "well ya see sora lost the keyblade and now riku..." goofy said before getting cut off by leon. "WHAT! sora lost the keyblade but how did that happen?" leon pratically screamed. aerith just sat there surpirsed but wanting to know how he lost it she just sat there quietly waiting for an explimation. giving them the explination leon and aerith were waiting for donald spoke up. "well it seems that hi's heart got lost in the darkness. but now riku is the new keyblade master." leon didn't know what to say this time. he just stood there in shock. 'sora lost his soul to the darkness? but how could that have happened?' leon thought. aerith finally speaking up asked the one thing that leon wanted to know most. "but how did he lose his heart to the darkness? i find it hard to believe that sora of all people." leon still lost in thought had not heard the sounds comming from the corner of the room he was in. and neither did aerith, donald or goofy. "it's because of his jelousy for riku!" said the dark figure now standing behind leon.
everyone turned around to see who it was had just spoken. "who? who are you?" aerith asked. the dark figure just stood there and laughed. "im sure you'd all like to know but now isn't the time for introductions." after having said that the dark figure left in a dark portal."hmmm. what do you say we go to the Radiant Garden and see cid? maybe he can find a way to help." leon suggested. aerith nodded and left to go tell merlin of their plan.
"well here you guys are. i've been looking all over for the two of you. what are you doing here?" asked a tall young man with long silver hair. "RIKU!" donald and goofy said at the same time."well you see donald and i went to go talk to leon about something. we didn't mean to be gone so long." goofy explained to riku. riku just stood there for a few minutes before telling donald and goofy their next order. "come on we need to go find someone." after saying that riku walked out the door and headed twords the first district. "well leon it seems like we gotta go." goofy said with saddness in his voice. "yea." donald replied "but we'll try to meet u up at radiant garden soon ok?" before leon could reply donald and goofy left to go and catch up with riku."yea let's hope." leon replied after they had left.
