AngelTheWeirdStranger 504 Posted September 17, 2015 WARNING: Long but worth it! So while I was working (because making up theories is the best thing I can do while packing books) I thought about this weird theory which kind of makes sense if you hear me out. Aqua will probably die at the end of Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth By Sleep: A Fragmentary Passage. Please hear me out. As we all know Aqua is currently in the Realm of Darkness and as she progresses she probably gets through the Worlds which fell to darkness during Kingdom Hearts 1. However, it's pointed out that this is the prologue to Kingdom Hearts 3 which means that Fragmentary Passage takes place after Aqua meets Ansem the Wise. And before you say, "It's 0.2 so it takes place before she meets Ansem!" I totally disagree with you because 0.5 takes place during the moment Aqua starts her journey through RoD. That could either mean that 0.2 takes place right at the moment Aqua enters the Realm of Darkness since Aqua, during the Last Episode ending, she says: "How long have I been down here?" Implying that she had probably been traversing the RoD for quite some time before we see her. However, since the game is called Prologue to Kingdom Hearts 3 we just have to assume that the game is the missing 0.2 from 2.8, which would mean the game takes place after the events of DDD. So, Aqua decides to leave Ansem do, whatever he was doing, and find her way out of the Realm of Darkness, back to the Realm of Light. Aqua is now at the darkest parts of Rod and the Heartless have grown really powerful, making it seem like she is still Level 1. But she has acquired a few new skills. She can now Tranform her Keyblade and use Attraction Flow. That would simply explain the new game mechanics. So anyway, she keeps travelling until she finally gets really close to the exit. However, a large number of powerful Heartless surround her. She gets overpowered and at her last moments she apologizes to Ven for not being able to be there to wake him up. BUT she figures out a way that will help someone, from the Realm of Light, to figure out the way to Ven's whereabouts. She passes on her Keyblade along with the name of Keyblade Master to the first person to find it. Aqua, sadly, fades away but her Keyblade, Master's Defender makes it out and in the end finds its way to Destiny Islands where Sora finds it (as shown in the Kingdom Hearts 3 PS4 trailer). Curious about it, Sora decided to consult Master Yen Sid who then tells him that in order to find one of the Seven Guardians of Light he needs to travel the worlds and open pathways that will lead to Castle Oblivion. Aqua may not be there to find the way to the Chamber of Waking but Sora now has her will, which has been passed on along with her Keyblade. With that Sora will be able to solve the mystery behind Castle Oblivion and return Ven's heart right where it belongs. I think this makes enough sense. I don't know about you but seeing Aqua travel alongside Sora, or the two meeting each other, seems implausible, in my opinion. The Master's Defender couldn't have just teleported to Destiny Islands on its own so it stands to reason that Aqua was behind it. So either she died and passed it on like I said or she remains trapped in the RoD and Mickey goes save her but without a weapon to defend herself Aqua is as good as dead. There is also a chance Mickey tries to save her during the events of Fragmentary Passage but fails in the end and Aqua trusts Mickey to get her Keyblade to the Realm of Light along with the secret to the mystery of Castle Oblivion. So again she sacrifices herself in order to send Mickey out of the RoD and right on Destiny Islands. The theory could also be supported by the title: A Fragmentary Passage. A not complete passage. Done in fragments/parts. Aqua's keyblade passes onto the RoL but she doesn't. So with this theory, I connected Kingdom Hearts Final Prologue with Kingdom Hearts 3, gave you a reason for Sora to travel the worlds again and explained why Master's Defender was on Destiny Islands without its Wielder. Now if you ask me, I HATE this theory. Aqua is my most favorite character and I don't want her to die. She already suffered so much, she at least deserves a reunion with her friends. If this turns out to be true I will cry way too much. You people are good at proving theories wrong. Please prove this one wrong as well! 3 The Transcendent Key, gingienator and AlixtheMagi13 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EskimoSquirrel 60 Posted September 17, 2015 I like the theory. I do not agree though. I feel like she will make it out because she will probably be one of the 7 lights. 2 AngelTheWeirdStranger and AlixtheMagi13 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Felixx 6,646 Posted September 17, 2015 (edited) Your theory is really good, BUT there is one point that proves it's wrong: It was confirmed by Nomura himself that the scene with Sora picking up Eraqus' Keyblade is non-canon and purely symbolic. So this scene from the first trailer will not be seen in KH3.

I don't want her to die. Even though, for me, a conversation between her and Sora seems too far out there.

I'm expecting a major twist/reveal somewhere at the end of A Fragmentary Passage and I'm now scared of what is going to happen. 2 AlixtheMagi13 and Felixx reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes Well, she still can die in 0.2, though because of different reasons. But I don't think so, since Aqua is a really popular character, and I don't want her to die. I want her to meet Sora, maybe she can train him a bit, that'd be awesome!

Up to this time I just thought, "it serves the plot and stuff" but now I really want her to survive. Aqua really is a popular character. Probably the best in the series. 1 Felixx reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That would be so cool! Since the moment I saw the scene where Ansem tells Aqua about Sora and she starts to cry hearing his name, I wanted them to meet. And since she already is a Master, why shouldn't she train him? I LOVE Aqua, one of my favorite characters, and she deserves to be in KH3, which will probably be my new most favorite game of all time! 1 2 quid is good reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kaweebo 3,617 Posted September 17, 2015 What Felixx said. There has been nothing to indicate that Aqua will die at any point before KHIII at all. In fact, if anything, the ending of BBS and the Secret Episode all point towards Aqua persevering in spite of it all in the hopes of seeing her friends again. That's kind of one of KH's running themes: Hope in spite of seemingly insurmountable odds. There's no way Aqua's not going to be the one to save Ventus from Castle Oblivion for what Felixx brought out and just the fact that they've already mentioned Aqua specifically as being one whose whereabouts are known by Mickey. Nice try, though. 2 Felixx and AngelTheWeirdStranger reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gwynbleidd 551 Posted September 17, 2015 If Aqua died then there would be no possibility of locating Ventus. 1 Movies798 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AngelTheWeirdStranger 504 Posted September 17, 2015 If Aqua died then there would be no possibility of locating Ventus.She would probably pass on some sort of hint along with the Master's Defender or she would tell Mickey before getting him out of the RoD.In any case, this is a theory and pretty much anything can happen.It's Kingdom Hearts after all. 1 Gwynbleidd reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gingienator 278 Posted September 17, 2015 Oh god if Aqua dies, there will be RIOTS outside of SE's building!!! I mean I'm pretty sure she won't die....? But Mickey did sorta implied that "...three of my friends" are Guardians of Light, sooo.... I guess it's safe to say she'll survive. It might or might not be true but it's a thought. And if there's no Aqua, then there's no Ventus. Also Aqua meeting Sora would be the BEST. I mean can you imagine her saying something like "You remind me so much of him(ven)...." It would be major feels!!!!! ; 0 ; Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KH4Real 749 Posted September 18, 2015 She can't be death we need her to save Ventus. Or mayby they will find something with Ansem the Wise like giving her memories. Good that we can still play with her dang now I understand why they made her with unreal engine. You may be right. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Movies798 1,359 Posted September 18, 2015 No Aqua will not died in Birth by Sleep 0.2 because at the end of Birth by Sleep Blank Points, Re:Coded, and Dream Drop Distance it was very strongly hinted that Sora will have the power to save Aqua and the other people who are connected to his heart. Also Aqua will be the one to guide Sora through Castle Oblivion because only she knows the structure and hidden rooms in Castle Oblivion because she create that Castle Oblivion and she won't lose herself in oblivion.

The Transcendent Key 12,109 Posted September 18, 2015 While your theory is good, keep in mind that Sora picking up the Master Keeper on Destiny Islands was more symbolical than canonical, as expressed by Nomura himself. I'm pretty sure that Aqua's going to go through all sorts of hell during her time in the Realm Of Darkness, but in the end, she'll make it out! She has to keep her promise to Ven! She has to make it back to the Realm Of Light! GAhhh, I can't wait! X_X Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So this scene from the first trailer will not be seen in KH3. Actually, he could have changed his mind and turn it canon. The very first secret ending was not considered canon until Kingdom Hearts 2 was released. Birth By Sleep Volume was ironically not all that canon until 0.2 was officially confirmed.

Fair point man But this theory is based on the (yet) false fact that this scene is canon, and without this fact it's just a speculation. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
