The Keyblade
VI
"Sora, before you go…" Julia said while walking over to the bed he had been sleeping in, "you should probably take this." She pulled out his Kingdom Key and handed it to him.
Sora tried calling it over to him but instead it just stayed in her hand. 'Why isn't it coming to me?' he thought while he gawked at her.
When he made no move to take it from her hand she walked over and placed the hilt in his open palm. "It's just something I guess," almost as if an answer to his thought; she quickly closed his fingers around it and smiled innocently.
He gripped the keyblade as he though of something, something that felt familiar. "I fell like I've been here before…maybe not here but inside of Kingdom Hearts…the way it's supposed to be." He lowered his arms to his sides, and looked at Julia expectantly, "it's not because of Namine is it?"
She shrugged, "it could be a lot of things. Like your tie to the Kingdom or the keyblade you wield. I'm not sure but the book could probably explain it."
Sora knew that would probably be her final answer for now. "So, I just unlock these chains and we can go in?"
"No, only you. At least for the moment, the glasses will tell you what needs to be done."
"The glasses?" they sounded oddly familiar to him.
Julia nodded, "the Broken Tower was originally a thing called the Altar of Awakening. It was used for observation over an event that took place while I slept…"
He nodded getting what she meant, "I'll do what I can." Sora smiled, "why I get back can you tell me about my friends Donald and Goofy?"
She thought about it, "I'll do something even better, but that's after you get back."
He flashed a thumbs up, "then when I get back." He raised the keyblade and in a flash of light there was a click and the chains disappeared. "I'll be back," he said reassuringly while pushing the door open and running through.
