Kingdom Hearts: Vanguard RP

[rikunobodyxiii 700]

(I'm scared to leave this thing for a day or two.)

(heh, I know the feeling.)

 

"A problem quite a few of us are having to deal with." Ienzo said to Celas.

He gave Cody a meaningful look.

"Anybody interested in going with Dilan and Lumiara are welcome to do so, and would be appreciated."

Even shot a glare at Lumiara when he realized that the Graceful Assassin was there. Only a look from Ienzo stopped an explosion. Even stared at the younger scientist, then composed himself. Aeleus stepped over to Oswald.

"Your expertise is needed at Disney Castle." he said. "Maleficent wants something your brother has. Her previous attempts have failed, but she will explore other options. We are going to find the holes she can use and plug them."

Even disentangled himself from studying the orb and gave Cade his attention.

"Well, what have you got?" he demanded. "Speak up, man."

"Xion." Ienzo called out to the former number XIV. "I would like to speak with you privately, if you be so kind."

He turned to walk towards the foot of the stairs, but paused.

"And Cody." he said, then turned to face the guardian. "It's Ienzo. Not Zexion."

[Obi-wan 411]

"Well my real name is Sky Kingly, but you can call me Valor." Smiling still as she threw off anything that Cody had said or directed toward her. "I doubt it. I'm to unknown to be put at the back of the mind"

"Kai, Kai Hikairi. If it helps anyways, considering how today has been-" The redhead cautiously eyed the three carefully, nervousness starting to edge further into his body. "So, where do we start? There's a lot of possibilities at this time since no one has done much yet."

"If I can, maybe we can look for Ventus, the boy in Castle Oblivion. He'd be a good help if we got to him." That and he'd be the perfect way to find Aqua or some of the others connected to him. "Or start. Looking for Aqua, if you know who she is."

Celas nodded at Ienzo."You're right" she then crossed her arms. "Ienzo, what a curious individual" she thought.Apparently everyone was making plans, forming parties and whatnot. Celas on the other side was traveling alone."Ienzo, once you have a mission for me feel free to give me a shout." she looked at the young scientist. "I'm sure you have some catch up to do with Poppet there" she glanced at Xion."I have to do some research in the Land of Departure, or as you know it, Castle Oblivion, I need to find...something there. Also, there is a certain blue haired girl waiting to discuss some important matters in the Dark Meridian and I can't be late for that appointment" Celas reached her hand out, opening a dark portal towards the Realm of Darkness. "Now, if you all excuse me, I will take my leave now."

(heh, I know the feeling.)

He gave Cody a meaningful look.

He turned to walk towards the foot of the stairs, but paused.

"And Cody." he said, then turned to face the guardian. "It's Ienzo. Not Zexion."

Lumiara hid his anger when the mysterious girl stepped in on the boy's behalf but perhaps it was for the better. He knew that the boy was ready to strike at any moment, and confrontation is not what he needed right now especially from another Keyblade wielder.

 

He listened to what everyone else had to say and took note of each new face. Who knew how many of them would live to see the end of this war. 

 

When Even walked into the room, he was surprised that the scientist did not lash out on the spot, but one look from Ienzo told him why. The elder is still taking orders from the young. Some things never change.

 

As Ienzo left the room with Xion, he made his way over to Dilin and asked, "So who do you think should accompany us?"

Cade turned towards Evan. "I've heard a rumer that a seeker of darkness with great mony and power is in need of rogues and assasins for hire, and that anyone interested should meet in the lowest chamber of the desert ruins in Agraba tomorow. I propose that some of us sneek in and crash their little party. Of course, we could also go under cover if you want.

As Ienzo left the room with Xion, he made his way over to Dilin and asked, "So who do you think should accompany us?"

"Anybody interested in going with Dilan and Lumiara are welcome to do so, and would be appreciated." As much as he wanted to formulate a plan to single them out one-by-one and strike them down, Cody could only hold his gaze at Luna as she conversed with the newly identified additions to the little group.

 

"Well my real name is Sky Kingly, but you can call me Valor." 

"Kai, Kai Hikairi. If it helps anyways, considering how today has been-"

 

Sky Kingly... Kai Hikairi. I don't recall ever seeing those names on the dossier list. He hated the idea of not having any intelligence on anyone that he'll be with, but Luna accepting them into the group gave him no choice but to put some faith into her decision. It didn't help that 'Valor' refused to answer his question. In a micro-snap of self-restriction, his right arm twitched towards her, intent on grabbing her neck to force an answer, but the impulse was quickly suppressed as his discipline took over. "And Cody. It's Ienzo. Not Zexion." He could only watch as Ienzo walked away with Xion, unsure if protecting her was under his jurisdiction. As Lumiara walked off towards Dilan, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief. 

 

"So, where do we start?" Kai asked, "There's a lot of possibilities at this time since no one has done much yet."

"If I can, maybe we can look for Ventus, the boy in Castle Oblivion. He'd be a good help if we got to him. Or start looking for Aqua, if you know who she is."

 

"We know who they are," Cody replied in a rather serious tone, "But according to 'Dilan', Radiant Garden is in danger." He let off a sigh before continuing, "So... Defend Radiant Garden? Or explore Castle Oblivion in search of them? Your call Luna, I'll... I'll follow." She adored the way he organized the situation, but felt heartbroken about the choices that were given. She knew that defending a world form imminent danger was the obvious choice, but finding the other two Keyblade Masters would be an invaluable asset to the Heroes of Light. They both knew that, but the path that he would take rested solely on her shoulders. She decided to do the right thing, sacrificing Cody's unspoken duty and possibly his psyche for the greater good if they could reach the other Masters. "We should look for Aqua and Ventus then. It... it would be the right thing to do for the Heroes." She looked back at Cody, hoping that he would understand. As expected, he looked down at the floor of the old dusty mansion with a rather sad and confused look. She knew what was going through his mind: A conflict of the oath that he was trying to resolve to the best of his abilities.

"Right. That's something we can very easily accomplish. Maleficent is all talk. She couldn't succeed in anything if her life depended on it. I assume you're talking about the Cornerstone of Light, Aeleus?"

"This is my greatest chance to take the castle for my own! Mickey will be forced to bow down to ME! I can finally prove myself worthy to Xehanort." Oswald thought, overcome by greedy excitement.

[Obi-wan 411]

(Okay I'm leaving soon so don't expect me to be on later except if I can get free wifi or if I decide to use my phone. Going on the trip is making me nervous,)

"Then Aqua is the best one to go after first. She should be able to unlock the room to Ventus with ease." Eying Cody while her lips pulled into a tight line. "You need to learn to trust people a little more, have just a bit of fate for Destiny. You can't always have all the pieces. I certainly don't when I signed up for this." S lie returning as she continued what she knew on Aqua. "Sh's somewhere in the Realm of Darkness, but I don't where. So either we go there or try to go through Castle Oblivion ourselves."

[Saber Lily 1,543]

((I'm kinda lots so sorry if I am too far behind.))

 

Xion and Zion had migrated to Cody and Luna, the former a bit annoyed with how clingy th latter was by now but acfepting it. Th benefits definately outweighed the cons.

"Cody. Luna. Where do you need us?" Xion asked. "We're -"

But then Ienzo called. Xion felt her girlfriend tense up...so Xion detached and tuned, giving Zion a kiss. "Its ok."

 

Xion headed over to Ienzo. "Any funny buisness and Zion will destroy you. Fair warning." She promised him.

 

Zion stayed with Luna and Cody, abesntly playing with her necklace.

[Arya Stark 1,337]

(Maybe it was a bad idea to tune out for a few pages... caught up now though!)

 

Severa had been listening to the conversations going on around the room, while leaning up against a pillar. She soon realized she'd be left behind if she didn't choose to go with someone. Severa loooed around the room a bit frantically, trying to find which group needed her support the most. She remembered that Cody and his group had mentioned something about close combatant's. With her sword and a few special little abilities, she thought she fit the bill. So, Severa walked over there, walking with attitude. "Name's Severa. I'm going with you. I don't care if you don't want me to." She said forcefully, glaring straight into Valor, Kai, Cody, and Luna's eyes, her point clear.

 

Sylar sauntered up behind Cade and made his presence clear with a crazy laugh. "What a great idea! I have a bit of darkness, making it easy for an infiltration." Sylar said to him, crazy grin and everything. He loved to mess guys up who had submitted to the darkness completely. So clueless, so mistaken. He may have some darkness, and he knew people's opinion of him, but Sylar knew the difference between surrendering to the evil little voice in his head, and continuing doing what he did best. That is, whatever he was paid to do. Oh right! That reminded him. "BTW, Even? I have to assume you guys are going to reward your little force of warriors handsomely? Right?" Sylar questioned the Frozen Scholar.

[rikunobodyxiii 700]

(Just to warn people, I'm probably also gonna be out of touch for tomorrow and the next day or so. I'm not shutting down the rp till I get back, just keep in mind that we're a few members down.)

 

Ienzo gave Xion a smile.

"That goes without saying." He replied.

He paused in going up the stairs to give Celas a nod.

"Tell her that she is expected." He said before heading up the stairs and into the White Room where Namine would draw. Her pictures had been taken down, but they were seen stacked neatly on the table.

"I can understand your apprehension about us, but I assure you that I have no intention in controlling you. In fact, I'd like to offer you a management position in our little...well, organization would seem to be a poor choice of words at this point."

 

"Looks like they all have their own plans." Dilan answered Lumiara sourly. "The two that came in with Ienzo, Sky and Ciel I believe, seem to be free, but they seem to be staying quiet."

Aeleus nodded to Oswald's question.

"That was her first attempt." He confirmed. "She also made a direct move against the world by trying to use the Queen as a hostage. Both attempts ended in failure, but there are others ways to get at what she wants."

The large man looked over at Cade.

"Such as a cadre of rogues and assassins. While it is probably not connected, it should be followed up on. Even, you had best join Cade."

Even gave Aeleus an aghast look.

"I have experiments to run!" He objected. "The orb we got from the dead imbecile over there won't study itself."

He glared over at Theek's corpse.

"And who left it out?"

He snapped his fingers and the corpse was taken away by a dark portal.

"We need information." Aeleus explained patiently. "You can put the orb in a scanner and do this mission as the results are complied."

"But this mission is more up Ienzo's alley." The Chilly Academic objected again. "Surely he should do it."

"He is in charge of another operation." Dilan cut in. "Until he is done, you are needed in the field."

Even huffed in frustration. He only seemed to notice what was happening around him when Sylar asked about rewards. He gave Sylar a weary look.

"We will be instituting a pillage system." He explained. "If a target has something of monetary value, those of you who feel the need for compensation can have it."

His eyes sharpened.

"Unless the item has some sort of scientific value, in which case I will get it."

(If anything Obi. I guess one of us can assume limited control of your characters...)

 

"Then Aqua is the best one to go after first. She should be able to unlock the room to Ventus with ease. You need to learn to trust people a little more, have just a bit of fate for Destiny. You can't always have all the pieces. I certainly don't when I signed up for this." Cody could only stare at Valor as she gave him the mini-lecture before returning his gaze back to Luna. I didn't sign-up, Luna dragged me into this. But I'll do whatever it takes to support Kairi, Sora and Riku as well. But this is mostly for her, and my accomplishment of the extended directive.

 

"She's somewhere in the Realm of Darkness, but I don't where. So either we go there or try to go through Castle Oblivion ourselves." Already there was a problem: neither of the Guardians know how to get to the Realm of Darkness. Luna decided to point that out. "We don't know how to get there, but if anyone else does we'd appreciate it." As she awaited a response, Xion and Zion appeared. She remembered Zion at the clock tower and Cody's conversation with her, and knew that he wouldn't mind having them tag along but became curious about how they met. "Cody. Luna. Where do you need us?" she heard Xion ask, "We're -"

 

As Ienzo called her and shared a kiss with Zion before leaving the group, Severa decided to crash in. "Name's Severa. I'm going with you. I don't care if you don't want me to." She looked around and noticed how the big the group was: There was Cody, Sky 'Valor', Kai, Zion and possibly Xion, and herself. She pondered the thought of having yet another member joining, but remembered that she had no idea what to expect in the Realm of Darkness. There was also the fact that there was no dossier report on the location, so Cody was just as clueless as she was. "Pleased to meet you Severa. I'm Luna, that's Cody, and they're Sky, Kai, and Zion," she said pointing them out as she called out their names. "I don't know what to expect in the Realm of Darkness, so I guess having one more wouldn't hurt."

 

Cody broke his silence. "The more the merrier," he replied as soon as she finished the introduction. "Luna, I don't know if Zion wants to tag along, but with all of these people wanting go with you, I think they should be more than enough to keep you safe." She realized what he was going for, and quickly shot the idea down. "Cody, you know that you can't go at it alone to protect Radiant Garden. We need the help." She had a point, and since he had no idea what the Realm of Darkness was like it made sense to play it safe. "Look. As soon as we finish finding the keyblade masters, we'll go there next. Ok?" "That's IF it's still around." he replied in a threatening tone, mad at the fact that it was a real possibility. "So, anyone know how to get to the Realm of Darkness?"

[Captain Arrowguns 466]

[so, me Even and Sylar huh? Sounds like an interesting team up.] Cade thought. He'd only met them both today, but they seemed confident enough. "So, what'll it be boss," Cade said to Even, "should we ambush them, or go undercover?" Personally, Cade wanted to go under cover. He had a feeling that they wouldn't be able to take on so many thugs for hire, and infiltration meant discovering what the enemy was planing.

Celas managed to hear some of Luna's group conversation."I wonder...should I help? They don't have access to the Dark Corridors but If I do help them..." Celas stopped walking and crossed her arms.Giving some thought, Celas wondered if Luna, Cody, Sky, Valor, Kai, Zion and possibly Xion would manage to survive in the Realm of Darkness, Xion had some experience since she used to travel between the Realms of Light, Darkness and the In-Between, but the rest could get lost in there, wandering for the rest of their lives. Maybe one of the unknown type of Heartless could attack them, things far more powerful and dangerous than the Heartless themselves lurked in the Darkness. Celas then walked towards the group."Excuse me, I listened to your current situation" she said looking at Luna. "If you'd like, I could open a Dark Corridor that leads to Castle Oblivion. I was heading there myself and since I think you're going for the same reason as me, I think I could lend you a hand with that" she said to the group.Celas was just trying to be nice, she wasn't used to travel with a group so it wasn't really that important if they did accept or not. She had to search for the sleeping Keyblade Warrior in Castle Oblivion and keep her appointment with the Blue-haired Kyeblade Master in the Dark Meridian."Or" she quickly glanced at Cody then back at Luna. "No, never mind. Here, you can use this" she reached her hand out, making a Dark Portal appear next to her. "You can go through here. I'm sure it will take you to the doorsteps of Castle Oblivion. You can decide to trust me or not. I AM someone from the Darkness after all" she smiled to herself. "Well, have a safe trip, and be careful, once you go through the portal, there is no coming back." with that, Celas walked into the Dark Corridor leaving the Mansion and the world itself behind.

[Saber Lily 1,543]

Xion crossed her arms. She was...very apprehensive about this.

"Me and Zion are a package. You get me, you get her. And if you do anything funny she will destroy you. She's...speciaI." xion smiled softly for a movement, before sighing.

"What's my first step then?"

 

Meanwhile, Zion Gibbs slapped Cody. "Dude. I can feel your intensity from here. Cool down. Sheesh. And I did nothing to Luna except figure out you're blind."

ZiOn sighed sadly.I'm sorry Luna. I really am."

[King.Mickey 359]

 

(It's getting shut down after you get back? :[ )"Okay, I'll meet you there," Oswald replied to Aeleus.He created a dark corridor and stepped through it, appearing before Xehanort in the throne room once more. This time, Saïx was there as well, which caused a confused look on Oswald's face."Master, I've finally uncovered an important part of their plans. I've got them to trust me...for now. Which is all that matters. Aeleus has told me that they're going to try and stop Maleficent in her plans to steal the Cornerstone. If we are to gain control of the castle, we must interfere."Xehanort smiled. "Good. I was beginning to think you would fail me, but it seems I have underestimated you this time. We should have the advantage against them now, and if we receive the Cornerstone, I'll definitely have you to thank.  I assumed you'd need help in case you were outnumbered by anyone when they found out the truth about you, so I ordered Saïx to assist you in anything you need." "Alright," Oswald replied. "Saïx, don't barge in until the optimal time to do so arises; we can't mess this up."Saïx gave Oswald a furious glare. "You think I'm some kind of rookie? Stupid rabbit. I'm well aware of the situation. If anyone were to screw this up, it'd be you"."Pshh, whatever..." Oswald muttered to himself. He created a dark portal, stepped through it, and appeared in front of the Disney castle.

Luna started blushing from all the attention that she was getting. What had started out as an attempt to be alone with Cody on an adventure had escalated into a group entourage into practically unknown territory. On the other hand, she did wanted Zion and Kai to tag along. Zion for wanting to ask her about romantic advice as well as about both Cody and Xion, Kai because of the fact that he looked like Kairi who she could use to soften up Cody. 

 

"Excuse me," she heard Celas say, "I listened to your current situation. If you'd like, I could open a Dark Corridor that leads to Castle Oblivion. I was heading there myself and since I think you're going for the same reason as me, I think I could lend you a hand with that." Before making a reply, the unmistakable sound of a swift moving hand connecting with it's intended target came from behind her. "Ow!" "Dude. I can feel your intensity from here. Cool down. Sheesh. And I did nothing to Luna except figure out you're blind." "Oh yeah. I almost forgot about that." "I'm sorry Luna. I really am." She let off a giggle before replying to Celas. "We're gonna look for Aqua. If you can take us to her, we'd all appreciate it." 

 

"No, never mind. Here, you can use this. You can go through here. I'm sure it will take you to the doorsteps of Castle Oblivion. You can decide to trust me or not. I AM someone from the Darkness after all. Well, have a safe trip, and be careful, once you go through the portal, there is no coming back."

 

"But..." Luna replied, "what about going to the Realm of Darkness? We really should find Master Aqua first."

Luna started blushing from all the attention that she was getting. What had started out as an attempt to be alone with Cody on an adventure had escalated into a group entourage into practically unknown territory.

"But..." Luna replied, "what about going to the Realm of Darkness? We really should find Master Aqua first."

 

Celas was already inside of the Dark Portal when she heard Luna speak."But...what about going to the Realm of Darkness? We really should find Master Aqua first." the girl said to her.Celas stopped walking, giving some thought about her answer."Well Luna, I could take you directly to the Realm of Darkness but even if I take you there, there is no reason for any of you to find Aqua" Celas crossed her arms. "she lost the "key" to unlock the secrets of Castle Oblivion. Your best option is to try and find the secret room in Castle Oblivion by yourselves. Once I finish my research there I will go and meet with Aqua personally and take her out of the Realm of Darkness since Ienzo wanted me to tell her that "she is expected".Then, Celas looked at Luna with a calm look on her face."So, which is it? You take the offer I made you and go to Castle Oblivion or you and your group stay here, wondering how to reach both the Realm of Darkness AND Castle Oblivion? This Dark Corridor is not going to stay open forever, once I'm gone, it will close in a few minutes. You have until then to make that choice. See you all around." Celas gave them a small wave and finally left towards Castle Oblivion.

(I'm gonna need a plot direction if my characters go to Oblivion. Like, what should happen to them once they enter? I'm gonna need that info before advancing my characters further, because you know how CO is like in the game. Should it be like they'll go through someone's memories, meet Namine and do something, etc... I'll just stall for now until someone gives me a clear direction.)

 

As Celas disappeared into the dark portal, Luna was left with a rather simple decision. "Well then, it looks like we'll be doing what Kai was going to do. Off to Castle Oblivion it is then!" She turned around to see what Cody was up to behind her back only to see him in his battle stance: His back was arched slightly as he held his rifle snugly against his right arm, looking as if he was ready to do a breach maneuver into the portal. "Didn't Zion tried to calm you down, Cody?"

 

"It didn't work." Cody replied in a serious tone. "Besides, the only times I ever see these portals are when bad things are coming OUT of them." She turned around to the portal before walking towards it. "Come on then! Anyone else that wants to tag along, come with me!" A couple feet before reaching the portal, Cody ran past her and dove into it. Uncertain of what was at the other side, she slowly walked through the ominous looking portal and into the unknown.

(It's getting shut down after you get back? :[ )

(Heck no. While I do want to have an ending eventually, I think we still got a ways to go before we hit that.)

(I'll handle environment. If any of you have something you want to happen, just say so.)"Agreed." Ienzo said almost directly after Xion insisted that Zion was part of the deal. "She is most welcome to join."He walked over to the window."I'm offering you this position for several reasons. We will have to coordinate with King Mickey and Sora at some point down the road. While I had hoped to have Lea act as a go between, it appears he has been drawn into a more direct role in this coming war. You are actually better suited for the task, but I had hoped to mend fences with you before I asked this. Your previous experience with a group such as this was less than good. But that was under Xemnas. I do not intend for us to follow his example."He turned to look directly at Xion."And I need your help with a plan that is a little more directly focused against Xehanort."He brought up a hand with a picture in it. It was of a desert area with an armored figure kneeling with a Keyblade in front of it."We want to get this active."Even gave a resigned sigh."Unfortunately, since you know more about the situation, you will be taking the lead on this." He told Cade, somewhat reluctantly. After Oswald left, Aeleus walked over to Luna."If you plan to go to Castle Oblivion, go carefully." He warned. "It has its own defenses. The Organization managed to get control of them, but it has a tendency to change. It is meant to keep people out. Also, Xehanort is interested in it. Expect opposition." Aeleus opened a portal behind him and was about to walk through when Dilan called to him."Be careful of the rabbit." The Whirlwind Lancer cautioned in a low tone. Aeleus nodded and stepped through the portal to stand beside Oswald.The Silent Hero looked down at Oswald."Are you ready?" He asked.

"Come on, you've gone through before." Valor's smile faultered slightly as she watched the others go through. A solid rhythm speeding in her chest, reminding her of her darkened past all to well. "I'll go first-" Faulty. Liar. "Just keep up." Then she ran through. Hiding away her fear as the black tendril snaked around her. Maybe they wouldn't see.

He'd gone in straight after Luna, hoping to ease her a bit toward the Darkness. "It's actually pretty nice. You'd think it would hurt, but the Darkness is somewhat nice when you know how to keep it from going to far. It just wants to be closer to the Light. Light can't hold Darkness within, just like Darkness can't hold Light out. If you keep it in balance then it simple touches, but never takes away the most powerful of it."

"Looks like they all have their own plans." Dilan answered Lumiara sourly. "The two that came in with Ienzo, Sky and Ciel I believe, seem to be free, but they seem to be staying quiet."

(Sorry been busy the last couple of days)

 

"Well it seems Sky has their own party," remarked Lumiara, "it seems we are left with Ciel, although they seem very...disconnected right now. Perhaps it's best if we head on out right now."

 

And with that Lumiara opened up a corridor to their destination.

"If you plan to go to Castle Oblivion, go carefully. It has its own defenses. The Organization managed to get control of them, but it has a tendency to change. It is meant to keep people out.

Light can't hold Darkness within, just like Darkness can't hold Light out. If you keep it in balance then it simple touches, but never takes away the most powerful of it." With the last second message registering with her head, she closed her eyes and carefully stepped through the portal to Castle Oblivion. She exhaled slowly as the dark portal enveloped her, quickly feeling a sense of cold wash over her body. Just as fast as the feeling occurred, it disappeared after she took a few steps forward. 

 

"Area secured." She opened her eyes to see Cody in front and off to the right, kneeling and aiming down the sight of his rifle, pointing it in certain directions around him. His helmet was on, which she found somewhat surprising since she spotted him just moments before he charged through the portal without it. Looking around at the new surroundings, one building immediately caught her attention against the pitch black background: Castle Oblivion.

[Elrandir 783]

And there she was, after appearing from a swirl of darkness, at the door of Castle Oblivion, or rather, the last remnants of Land of Departure."So much as changed after all those years" Celas had a melancholic look on her face. "It used to be so pretty...so full of life...and with a beautiful starry sky at night" she sighed and shook her head. "But those times are gone, just like the Land of Departure"Slowly, she put her hands on the doors, pushing them with all her strength."Here goes nothing" she said to herself.After a few seconds, the doors opened, revealing the insides of the Castle, its white walls and the single door were waiting for their visitors."Surprise surprise...nothing here" slowly, Celas went inside. "I wonder...wasn't there supposed to be a defense mechanism in this pla-" suddenly, she felt a shiver down her spine followed by a slight shock all over her body. "What the? What was that?"It was so sudden but out of nowhere a figure appeared standing near the door leading inside the castle. It was wearing a silver and white armor, a female by the looks of it."It was all so sudden but I have to leave now" the armored woman said. "But...do not worry about me young one. I'm sure we can bring back Kingdom Hearts and restore the balance between Light and Darkness." the woman then walked towards Celas. "In any case, you need to get stronger because a new Keyblade War will begin and you need to be ready for that day" the armored woman went through Celas, vanishing afterward.Celas was shocked. Not only she saw a memory from her past, she saw her late Master."I knew the risks of coming here but...it's still hard..." she said while walking towards the door. "From here on, I will be seeing scenes from my past." with that, Celas opened the door, getting engulfed in a white light and disappearing afterward.
