In Kh3d , Lea jumped in to save Sora from becoming M.Xehanort Clone by "destroying" M.Xehanort's heart .Now we all know how powerful Xehanort is with his darkness and most of all his heart. Is Lea really that powerful enough to just drop in and destroy Xehanort heart like it was nothing . Yes , you may argue we see explosions and all but we do not know his heart is really destroyed? Xehanort's heart may have already entered Lea 's body during that time frame so Lea may have unknowingly  become part of the darkness .

 

And then we see Xehanort smile. Why smile when he fail to succeed in his plan? Unless he already have just that his plan was altered. He may use Lea as an inside agent in KH3 and just when Sora and Riku thought it was safe (maybe they think that Xehanort failed to gather 13 darkness) , then that's is when Leanort strikes (as the final darkness).

 

At least that's what I think why Lea is not safe .

You know, this is actually quite possible and very interesting! Actually, if you think about it, Lea couldn't summon a keyblade before saving Sora, maybe Xehanort gave him the power he needed to do so when this happened.

I think the smile was more directed at the fact that he used Isa/Saix (former best friends) to attack Lea right after.

I would love this scenario if it happens. The only fault that i find with it is that lea is all but officially confirmed to be a guardian of light. Unless he replaces terra as a seeker or kairi doubles as a guardian and a princess. Either way i really want your theory to happen.

1. You have to be drowning in darkness to be prepared for a vessel.

 

2. You have to throw away your identity and your former self ( hence why all the org members were tricked into losing their hearts and were given X names. It's also why the norts continuously tried to get Sora to question his own self and identity) He even told MX he was not Axel he was LEA.

 

3. He blocked and incinerated the heart piece.

 

4. MX smiled bc he directed Isa/Saix to attack Lea- dramaworthy considering they used to be best friends and it is a real slap in the face and a shock considering they planned a rebellion together. ( although I feel Isa was an involuntary nort ) MX can control all his vessels.

 

5. It would be redundant since Nomura spent several games showing Axel/Lea's redemption.We don't need a repeat of the same storyline.

 

6. Lea was given a keyblade to help bring his friends back as stated by Nomura. It would be hard to do if he's a nort too. Especially if he wants to try to save Isa in one of the most foreshadowed fights for KH3.

 Nope. He was suppose to have his keyblade even then, but Nomura decided to change it to the ending for the surprise value. Originally he was to rescue Sora keyblade in hand.

Plus, if Axel couldn't be a vessel, it wouldn't be possible for Lea to be one either.

No, that's not what happened. He incinerated the heart piece (though Xaster Xehanort is probably fine, maybe the piece just returned to him before it could be entirely destroyed...or maybe he doesn't need it) and Xehanort was smiling to signal/force/whatever Saix/Isa into fighting Lea. I think you might be reading a bit too much into this scene.

Thanks Flaming Lea for stating the obvious. There goes HMK doing "theories" again...

I believe Flaming Lea here summed it all up. As I think about it, I guess any questions that have to do with the story should be referred to her.

Omg, HMK thought of the same thing!  I saw a video about this not too long ago from him!  Thinking about it, it scares me to think that Lea may unknowingly have become a Darkness!  Gah, I don't want him to, though, because he's gone through enough, and now, he just wants to set things right!  He can't do that if he's possessed, ya know?  Darn it Xehanort, you devious fiend!!!  You are a brilliant genius! D:

Hmmm, I highly doubt it. Axel didn't really fit the criteria of becoming a nort according to Xemnas and Xigbar among other things (Flaming Lea just about sums it up). I really couldn't see it happening unless Nomura decides to pull off some half-hearted 'plot twist' ya feel? :V

It is Kingdom Hearts so it is possible, just wouldn't be very practical nor make sense to the story-line. 

It's an interesting what-if scenario nonetheless.
