"Sweetness," I said. "Canadian turkey bacon. Life is looking up!"
Ramona raised her eyebrow at my actions, but dismissed it, instead asking "What happened?"
I told her of what had happened, and Ianus told her of his side of the story. Once both of us finished speaking, Ramona patted me on the hand.
"I'm sorry you lost your family." Ramona said.
"I'll get them back." I said, determined. Then, I shoved all the hash browns I could into my mouth. "Dude, Canadian breakfast is the best ever."
"Your family got killed and you're talking about hash browns?" Phaedra asked, sounding rather angry.
"Sorry." I said, then, loudly, "'Woe is me! My family have died, slaughtered by eternal blackness!' Phaedra, you can either look back at the past, sad as can be, or lift up your head, smile, and make everything better."
"I didn't know that there were other dimensions," Scott Pilgrim, Ramona's boyfriend cut in.
"Neither did we," Ianus answered, "until about half an hour ago."
I looked at Scott Pilgrim. "Did you ever tell him about this stuff?"
"Never had reason to, really." Ramona shrugged. While Ianus and Scott kept talking, I focused on talking to Ramona.
"How do we bring back our world?" I asked, sipping my orange juice.
"You have to find and lock Kingdom Hearts." Ramona said. "But you two are way too weak to do that yet. If I were you, I'd focus on getting stronger before anything else."
"What's Kingdom Hearts?" I asked.
"A door. There's a lot of stuff I could tell you about it, but, to keep it simple, you shut and lock it, and your world comes back." Ramona said.
I nodded, then asked "How did my keyblade make a portal?"
"Looks like your keyblade has special powers." Ramona said. "The keychain is a nice touch, too, since you came from a dead world." Ramona winced. "Sorry."
"My world isn't dead. It's just...resting." I said, completely sure that I'd fix my world.
"Whatever you say, man." Ramona said when, suddenly, I had another feeling, like the Heartless were coming. Ianus had it as well, and Ramona did too, pushing Scott out of the booth and onto the floor. "Scott, get your bass."
"How will that help?" Ianus asked, his keyblade appearing in hand.
My keyblade appeared, and I walked out onto the streets. I didn't know what I was thinking, as it was more dangerous in the street, but I just knew that the more Heartless I killed, the stronger I would get. A flying Heartless came at me and I jumped into the air, hit it three times with my keyblade, then landed and spun around, destroying three Heartless that had came out from the ground.
"Jeremiah!" Ianus shouted. "We have to go! There's too many of them!"
Scott played bass very fast, and a portal like mine appeared. Distracted by this, however, I was tackled down by a Heartless.
"Go!" I shouted, kicking the Heartless off of me. Five more surrounded me, and I used fire to put some distance between us. I saw that Ianus was gone, but Phaedra was still in this world. I ran to the front of the diner, quickly killing whatever Heartless that got in my way, and ran inside.
"I'll take care of the kid and the Heartless." Ramona said. "Go!"
I looked at Scott, who had stopped playing bass, too tired to continue.
"I'll make my own portal." I said, thrusting my keyblade forward and turning it.
"Wait, you don't know where Ianus we-" The rest of Ramona's words went unheard as I dived into the portal, my last words to her an order, though it should've been a request.
"Take care of Phaedra!" I shouted.
As soon as I passed through the portal, it closed. It closed so fast, in fact, that it disappeared before I hit the ground. I looked up, seeing a ramen shop and a group of teenagers looking down at me.
"Dude, are you okay?" A brown-haired one asked. Then, "What jutsu was that? It was pretty wicked."
I raised an eyebrow. What the hell was a jutsu? I stood up, brushed myself off, and said "I'm fine. Where am I, exactly?"
"Konoha." A pink-haired one said. "I'm Sakura."
"I'm Kyle." The brown-haired one said.
"And I'm Naruto!" The last one shouted, then slurped up a whole bowl of ramen.
Needless to say, I was surprised.
