There we go, video embedded for ya
Also, I wish I could help with the programming, but I still know so little about it. I might be able to help with writing, but I'll need some assistance to get better ideas and have the story more polished.

I mostly use Twitch to watch streamers, but the only live-streams I go to watch on YouTube is TheNyanCave. I only started watching them around two months or so ago. I heard they were going through the Kingdom Hearts games and I watched a tidbit of one of their Birth by Sleep streams. I decided afterwards that I really liked them and wanted to watch more of them. Although I've neglected to watch their most recent streams.

Which one's your favorite?
I dig Highwind lvl 8. myself because of the badass gothic look. Shoots well too. 
 
Answer: I counted 40 on this list https://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Gummi_Ship_Blueprints_(Kingdom_Hearts_II)

Cool I got it right, my favorite back in the day was the falcon lv. 6 because of the cool wing set up that make it look more like a catamaran speed boat

So, as I've scrolled through forums both on here and other websites, I've noticed that a lot of people are overlooking something since the reveal of the New Seven Hearts of Light. That is, the fact that whomever the lights may be, their origin may very well include whatever worlds we're going to get next.
 
So, to elaborate, let's look at the worlds we have currently.
 
Olympus Coliseum. (Can be overlooked, though, considering that it's most likely the first level.) Twilight Town. (Interesting bit here I'll comment further down.)  Kingdom of Corona. Toy Box. Monstropolis. Classic Kingdom. (I've heard them refer to this as a world in several interviews, but since they're really just mini-games, I suppose this can be overlooked as well.) Arendelle. The Caribbean. Radiant Garden. (Still up in the air depending on the plot and whether or not we actually go there and move in that world.) San Fransokyo. (We know this is for sure confirmed, we just haven't seen gameplay yet.) Now, out of all these worlds, there are several characters that we have seen that are considered as candidates for the New Seven Hearts. Of course, we know that Kairi is still one of them, so then we would actually need SIX new characters to take the place of the other Princesses.
 
Now, I will present a list of characters that which are likely candidates of the New Seven, and explain why.
 
Kairi - Obviously, it has been mostly confirmed through interviews that she is considered still a Princess of Heart. Since she is also one of the Seven Guardians of Light, it also gives her placement as one of the Seven with that much more significance. Rapunzel - Now, this one is interesting, because she is actually one of our partners for KHIII. However, Nomura has stated KHIII will be dark, and I can think of nothing darker than having one of our partners permanently taken from our party. Of course, then again, perhaps the Thirteen Darkness can end up being thwarted form taking them before Sora, Donald, and Goofy intervene, perhaps just being satisfied with knowing who they are, and threatening Sora to find their Seven Guardians before they come back and take them. Either way, considering Rapunzel's affinity to light, considering the nature of her hair being due to the magic flower, I can see her definitely having a heart pure enough to b of the Seven. Boo - I mean, come on. A little girl, unafraid (mostly) of monsters? I definitely think she is one of the more overlooked characters as candidates for one of the New Seven Hearts of Light. Also, going back to the underlying dark theme of this game, what's more messed up than kidnapping a little girl to serve your dark ends? Xehanort has been shown to be willing to do anything to see his ambitions through, and will use whomever he needs to do it. I feel like I'm on the mark with this one. Anna and/or Elsa - This one looks very obvious on the surface, but since there's still not enough clarification on Squeenix's part, some explanation should be made. Anna is a very obvious candidate, given her very open, cheerful disposition, which seems to lead her into the frozen darkness that has become Arendelle. Elsa also has a light within, but it's hidden within her darkness. Whether that darkness is indeed hers and not something else - and if she in fact actually has no darkness in her whatsoever - remains to be seen. Perhaps it's the same case with Cinderella in Birth by Sleep, and her love for Anna will reveal her pure heart of light. Now then, let's get on to those who could potentially be candidates. That is to say, these are people who are not as likely to be one of the New Seven Hearts, but could potentially be.
Elizabeth Swann - Now, I myself don't fully subscribe to this possibility, but considering this is a list of people who are not as likely, but could potentially be, I might as well make the argument. Now, what do we know about Elizabeth? She's brave, daring, proper, loyal, and intelligent. Aspects that are shown in most of the Princesses. And she's certainly courageous enough to fight against the East India Trading Company and Davy Jones. However, does that willingness to actually kill enemies ( though it will likely just be Luxord, his Nobodies, and the Heartless to keep it PG or close to PG-13) present darkness in her heart? If not that, then how about the fact that she left Jack to the Kraken, and got him sent to Davy Jones' Locker? Would that mean she has darkness in her heart? Probably, but we'll have to wait and see. Honey Lemon - Now, I know a lot of these Princesses tend to be similar in that they're positive, cheerful, and adventurous. While the first two certainly count here, one ought to remember that Honey really didn't come up with the idea to be a superhero herself. She did it believing it would help Hiro come to terms with Tadashi's passing, and later on bringing justice to him. This indicates that she also has a sense of justice, and is also very intelligent, as seen as her knowledge in chemistry and alchemy. She is also very observant, which can grow tenfold around the darkness, as most other Princesses can. Being a Princess of Heart could definitely up her repertoire, as well as be very well deserved. Now for my last potential Princess, we'll be looking at a character that has already been introduced, but is still often overlooked due to their position as a supporting character. Some of you might know where I'm going with this if you've read this far. Some of you might believe this, or think it's complete baloney. Either way, my last prediction for the New Seven Hearts of Light is...
 
Olette - Yes, the third member of the Twilight Trio (not to be confused with the Sea-Salt Trio). She has been a supporting character for as long as Kingdom Hearts II, and has been in that role ever since. So what do we know about her? She's smart and responsible, as evident by her constant reminders of doing the summer homework. She is also very loyal to all her friends, both in the digital Twilight Town during the Struggle, and in 358/2 Days when Hayner accused Pence of dropping his ice cream. She's kind, romantic, and adventurous, as seen towards the end of KHII when checking the Abandoned Manor, as well as in Digital Twilight Town during the Seven Wonders Case. She certainly has the makings of one, but is there definitive proof? Not really, but... did you guys notice that during the Square Enix Showcase Trailer, she wasn't present in that shot inside Ansem's Lab? Could she have already been taken by Xehanort?... Maybe. We'll have to wait and see. If you've read this far, you're probably wondering, "That's great, Da-Awesom-One, but what does this have to do with the World List?"
 
Well, assuming Olette really isn't one of the new Lights, I would wager that at least four New Seven Hearts of Light have been revealed shown thus far, which includes Kairi, even though the rest have yet to be confirmed. Which means 3 of the new 6 have been shown in some capacity.
 
That means we still have at least 3 more New Lights to be shown. However, if one of the new Lights is indeed from San Fransokyo - maybe Honey or whoever Nomura chooses - then that would mean there are two worlds with two New Hearts of Light that have yet to be shown. Of course, that doesn't mean there will on​ly be two more extra worlds to be revealed, be we at least know two of them will have a Princess.
 
With all that said, the next new worlds would have to be worlds from before Big Hero 6's release, since we know from interviews that he chose the worlds from before that frame. So any movies that ladies that embody any of the qualities that are present in Princesses of Heart are suspect in being in Kingdom Hearts III.
 
So that's my theory, guys. What are your choices for the New Seven Hearts of Light? What worlds do you think will be revealed next, and who is the Princess of that respective world? I'd like to hear your opinions. 
 
Thanks for reading!

Hello guys, I have a question for people who've already attended the Orchestra concerts. Has it ever happened to you that your Tickets didn't come in the mail in time for the concert? I'm attending the one in Munich this Saturday and I don't have my ticket yet, I've contacted the Wild Faery and they send me the invoice and told me I can access the venue with that and my ID. I'm a little bit nervous, also because I'm not fluent in german and I'm afraid I won't be able to explain the situation once I'm there. So, has this happened to and of you? I'd linke to hear you guys' experiences, thanks in advance to who will answer

I'll be a....happy Snowman!

This is a question for all of those on here who stumble upon this topic, and have also had the pleasure of playing the KH3 Demo, be it at one of the recent conventions or the Premiere Event,
 
How did Dearly Beloved sound like?
 
The reason I ask is because I watched HMK's demo impressions on Youtube, and he made a comment on how good the Dearly Beloved sounded.
 
So I ask you all, for those who have maybe listened to it and bothered to take it in: how did it sound like?
 
Was it an old version, or the brand new one meant for KHIII?
 
What was the feeling that you got for it. An example would be the 358/2 Days version emitting a hint of tragedy, whilst KH1's depicted the starting of a new journey, KH2's being the halfway point of that journey, and BBS's theme seeming to allude to awakening. Those are my impressions from listening to those versions of Dearly Beloved.
 
So what are the impressions you get from the KHIII demo version of Dearly Beloved?

Helloooo everyone. I go by way too many names. Chasm, Chasm Key, CK, Guardian Roxas,  Guardian...whatever. Finally introducing myself. I've only made a few topics and i've replied to many already, but i just wanted to say hey and throw out a little..."want" that i have. But first, i love talking anything Kingdom Hearts. Speculation, Theories, WHATEVER. (Minus Shipping. lul). I love me some Smash Bros, Sonic, Ninja Gaiden, Phoenix Wright, Nonary Games, Danganronpa, and many many other franchises. I love everything across the board in terms of genres. Also, Roxas is life. Never forget it. East Coast in the USA is where i call home. 24 Years old and only going upwards!
 
 
I'm hoping i'll be a welcomed addition in the near future. Trying to build a YT channel for the next generation of Kingdom Hearts fans and make the community even bigger.
 
I made a Status the other day basically saying: "I really want to get together with some freshly new KH Youtubers and create a new group for the next generation of Kingdom Hearts players. The Next Saga is going to be upon us sooner or later and i want to be ready!". I'm 100% serious about this. I want people that are starting out fresh that are either new to the series or just starting fresh on Youtube to have a new kind of community going into the next KH saga.
 
It was partially inspired by the KH streaming community The Keyblade Army. While this isn't a direct response to them, but i did notice some people were disappointed that they couldn't join this group of streamers and it just made me want this more. The Keybladers of the Next Generation. I'd love to see fresh new Youtubers doing what they enjoy the most with other new fans or youtubers. The Key Keepers and other veteran youtubers are all the old heads in the community, but fresh faces would be awesome. We can be the next big generation of Youtubers/Streamers/Theorists for KH4 and onwards! Well that's my inspiration for starting with Youtube and hopefully i can help find people here that wouldn't mind creating/joining this potentially big movement.
 
That's all i really have to say guys. Thanks for accepting me into the community and i hope to be here for a reaally long time.

Welcome to the Haven, a place where peoples of all kinds have been gathered chiefly in an effort of universal survival.  Within its thick metallic walls lies a promising hive of individuals who have experienced much in their young (and seldom old) lives.  At the entrance lies a gate leading to nine discovered worlds, programmed to open to call beads as well as voice commands for the Haven's inhabitants, but in those worlds are as many promises of survival as deadly threats.  Discoveries occur very frequently, but death is common to those unprepared for the dangers that lie beyond.
 
Fifty-seven individuals exist in Haven now, and with every death another individual is brought in to take their place, sometimes ripped from another world unwillingly, and in rarer cases willingly.  The wish for greatness, for adventure, for fame, and for glory--to the strong having this wish, often a choice is given, and if it is accepted they are brought to Haven.
 
Job postings are issued from the higher-ups to deal with the situations.  No one currently alive in Haven has seen a higher-up, but they speak through the automated machines that work alongside the fifty-seven, and provide free food, drink, and services.  The job postings range from matters of low importance and danger to profound importance and danger, and parties are designated to seek out and complete these missions.
 
While Haven is a paradise in and of itself, rules are set up to prevent stagnancy, and rewards of high caliber are given to those who complete job postings.  The rules are as follows:
 
1.)  Those who do not work outside of Haven will disappear in three weeks until they do so.
2.)  Those who betray their allies unto death will not be suffered to live.
3.)  Those who seek vengeance upon another must combat through words or the arena.  Open fights within Haven are punished severely.
 
With this introduction in mind, this story begins with the death of a party of six assigned to an Alexandrium-class quest.  The job still lies open, but six fresh-faced individuals have been reborn as inhabitants of Haven.  You may be among them or one who has been there longer.  Now, let the adventure begin.
 
~~~~~
 
A public announcement was broadbanded through every speaker in every room about the deaths of six great adventurers in Haven that day.  The elegant berserker Harold Ironfang, the proud druid Grindra Ulfrichter, the timid rogue Kimball Oakfast, the heaven-sent pugilist Ilyana Ivory, the metal-shaping sorcerer Roderick Corrin, and the all-fair cleric Isabel Clearwater all lost their lives to the most important job Haven had to offer, a job that was thought to be one only for them.  Now the greatest known evils of the multiverse lay uncontested, and six newcomers were spat out into their respective rooms, awaiting retrieval.
 
Those who were new typically had their stomach lurch from the dimensional shift, and they vomit onto the wooden floors.  Some of the folks who already were in Haven come to accept them.  The others are allowed to mourn their fallen brothers and sisters in arms.
 
Pang was in mourning still, saddened by the deaths of three friends he trusted dearly.  His white-furred tail drooped as he looked down at the floor, but he dried his tears as he headed down the extensive halls of Haven.  Numbers on the holoscreens at every door indicated where new arrivals could be found, and he was aiming for Room Number 44.  Who was this newcomer going to be?  What was he or she going to be like?  He had no idea, but he hoped that seeing their senses of wonder, excitement, eagerness, or all of the above would cheer him up.

(If you want to learn how this all happened in the first place, take a look at the prologues!)
 
Prologue: Pit
 


 
 
Prologue: Lute and Tiki







Prologue:Leaf






Prologue:Link and Zelda




 
 
~Pi'illo Island: Blimport (With Leaf, Lute, and Tiki)~
 
The orange-yellow blimp lands on the port gently and safely near a girl with purple hair(Lute) and a little girl with green hair(Tiki). Stairs come out from the blimp. The princess, Peach, dressed in pink, steps down first with Toadsworth assisting her. "Wow...Here we are!" The two Toads come down the stairs as well. Mario instead jumps down from the platform. "Leaf! Luigi! Come on down!" She says, with excitement in her voice. "Now, now Princess. Calm down. We just got here." Luigi however...Is fast asleep. On the platform. Here there would be blimps all around. There are beings that look like yellow blocks with eyes and a mouth. They had black skinny arms with white gloves on their hands. They seemed to be employees commanding the blimps to come and go. Surrounding the blimport would be all water.
 
~Pi'illo Skies (Pit)~
 
"There it is Pit. Pi'illo Island." Palutena announced in Pit's mind. "I'll try to get you somewhere to land. Any suggestions from your view?" As Pit is in the sky, he would see a flash of pink light go right past him. It was a complete blur!
 
~Bridge to Mushrise Park (Link and Zelda)~
 
The bubble encasing the Princess and the Hero made a sudden stop. It gently placed the Hylian duo down on the ground. Zelda looks up.
"...Wow...Amazing..." She was already amazed. Being outside of Hyrule to be in someplace new and different...It was a whole new experience. There would be a stone bird statue where they are. Behind them would be a bridge, but it seems very poorly made. Up ahead of them would be a large stone castle with a stone symbol that looked to be a pillow with a smiling face on it.

Hi everyone, my name's Lenore. I've been a huge KH fan ever since I was thirteen. What else can I say? Lol

Hello guys! So, I wrote this fan fiction in... 2014, after KH3D release. I've decided just now to translate it (I'm italian).
The story is set after CoM - and during Days, the main character is one of my favourites and (in my opinion) one of the most underrated, Riku Replica. Hope you enjoy!
 
Thanks to Afa Bill Aseh and his team for translation.
 
 
The Hero of Darkness
 
 
Chapter 1
Rebirth
 
“What happens when a fake dies- one like me? Where will my heart go? Does it disappear?”
 
Drop by drop, Riku Replica’s consciousness began to reform. A feeling, a memory, a thoughts... It took time for the puppet to realize that, but little by little he resumed being someone, or something.
"Where… am I?" he asked weakly.
There wasn't even a slight glow of light and he couldn't see anything. He was lying down, but beneath him, he did not feel the ground or any kind of floor. He was floating alone in the pitch black.
"Is this the Realm of darkness?" sighed Riku. “Is here where ends those like me?”
He wondered how much longer he would have to wait. He thought that some kind of entity would soon appear and would list what he had done well and what he had done badly, a short list and a very long one respectively. As long as that wasn't a lie too, he said to himself, and seeing no one arrive, he smiled almost incapable of regretting yet another disappointment. The only sensation he had left was that it was cold there, yet he didn't feel any kind of temperature.
He sighed again, then tried to move his limbs. Strangely enough, he felt them distant. He had to make an effort just to bring his right hand in front of his face, trembling with exertion.
“Wake up”.
“Who’s there?” Riku snapped into an upright position, while floating.
“You should wake up, that's your only opportunity to do it”.
“Who are you?!”
“I am your only opportunity”.
Riku stared at the darkness in front of him, waiting for more explanation.
“You have to go back, Riku, you have some unfinished businesses to close”.
“I'm afraid I'm not," the boy replied, puffing. "I'm just a fake, I don't have any pending issues”.
“Are you sure? Don’t you ever had anything that was real, to you?”
The sound of the voice echoed into the everlasting darkness. Riku raised hesitating his face. "What are you talking about?”
“A promise" answered the mysterious interlocutor. "A promise you have to keep. It's your only way”.
The boy looked down. A name slipped from his lips: "Naminé...”
“Of course, the little girl in your memories”, the voice said.
“It wasn't my memory", replied Riku. “They weren't even real memories...”
“But they were all you had, they were real to you. They had to be”.
“Why are you telling me all this?" the puppet asked, raising his tone, as if he had found again all his arrogance. "Tell me who you are!”
“I told you: I'm your only opportunity. This is your second chance”.
“Who are you really?”
The voice only answered after a brief pause: “You can call me the King”.
For Riku Replica, those words had no meaning: he had never met King Mickey, nor had any memory of him.
“Just don't want to tell me who you are, huh?” the boy asked. “At least explain me why you should help me”.
“I need a favour, Riku, a mission that only you can accomplish”.
“You don’t say! Everyone always expects something from others!”
The soft laugh of the voice echoed again in darkness.
“Listen to me to the end at least, after all your interests are at stake or you might never go back. You need me in order to do it”.
“Why? What do you have so interesting to offer me?”
“Well, I can offer you an all-new body”.
“A... what?”
The King's response was quick: without saying anything, the darkness surrounding Riku diminished and finally the boy could see himself. He brought his right hand back in front of his face and could glimpse through it. His skin was as transparent as glass, a little more opaque.
With a mixed expression of disbelief and horror, he could not look away and could barely syllable words of accomplished meaning.
“Your body has vanquished” continued the voice, “but something holds back your soul here, at the edge of oblivion. Unconsciously, your will has clung to some feelings and is struggling not to disappear completely. Maybe to obtain, one day, your own heart”.
Riku was breathless. He continued to watch his limb with his mouth open, without saying anything.
“Accepts my proposal, Riku. Complete the mission I want to assign to you and I will be able to give you a whole new body. It will be the first step to becoming a unique person like everyone else”.
“...you said a heart of my own?"
“Correct”.
“Why should I trust you?" the Replica asked in a convinced tone, raising his head.
“In fact, you would have no reason to do so. Unfortunately, however, I cannot offer you any alternative. Choose what you prefer; if you want I'll slip away in the dark and never bother you again”.
Once again, Riku Replica looked down at the glassy hand. He knew he could not trust this King, but that could really be his second and only chance, the last of many wasted chances. Would it be a bigger mistake to attempt going for broke, or to waste this last opportunity without getting anything in return?
“What do I have to lose?”
“How much do you care about you have got lost so far, Riku? Your existence, your promise, everything fictitious that meant something to you... only you can know what you have got to lose”.
A life of imitation which has come to an end, or perhaps something else. Everything was there.
“Hey, King...” the puppet called out, closing his fist in front of him. He could only have hoped that the benefit of the doubt would be worth the risk. “I accept the mission”.

What's your favorite Marvel TV show?

I had really a great time at Gamescom. I didn't expect that you need to wait hours for a demo.
But KH3 was fantastic there Here are a few pics:
 
 

In Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories, when referring to Maleficent, Vexen says "Don't be absurd. The witch is gone. She cannot return from the Realm of Darkness of her own volition." This means that after Sora destroyed Maleficent in the first Kingdom Hearts, she got sent to the Realm of Darkness. Why is this? Why did Maleficent get sent to the Realm of Darkness instead of just simply dying? Or did she just simply escape after the battle with Sora to the Realm of Darkness using a Corridor of Darkness? Also, why did she have to wait for someone (the three fairies) to remember her in order to come back when she could've just used a Corridor of Darkness?

The Opening Intro Video starts off with a Recap of Terra, Aqua and Ventus falling down their shared Dive to the Heart towards Ven's Station of Awakening, afterwards we see Ven, as a shooting star within the sky that soon abruptly lands within the Realm of Darkness, awaking from his long slumber, as Ventus is immediately attacked by Unversed that proceed to knock him back, even when after summoning his Keyblade, the Wayward Wind, seen gloating over Ventus is his Dark counterpart Vanitas unmasked, summoning his own Keyblade the Void Gear to prepare to destroy just exactly like when he tried during their very 1st encounter crossing Keyblades with one another, it is then saving Ventus from his demise was a silhouette of King Mickey revealed to actually be Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, wielding a Keyblade of Darkness called the "Shadow Chaser" ("Phantom Chaser" in Japanese), using his Dark Keyblade, Oswald heals Ven and together they both take on Vanitas, only for the scenery to suddenly change with Ven all by himself, seen looking at straight right in front of him the Lingering Will, in other-words, the mind of his very best friend and older brother like figure Terra, preparing to lift its Keyblade, the Ends of the Earth from the ground and suddenly engage Ventus in combat, as Ven tries to dissuade the animated armour but sadly to no avail whatsoever, he is knocked back by the Will and shatters into behind him what feels like a wall made of glass, afterwards, Ven enters another Dive to the Heart once more, as he falls, he sees down below his other very best friend and older sister like figure Aqua smiling weakly towards him, as she tries to reach out her towards him, only for Ven, upon coming into contact with Aqua's hand, causes her to fade away into particles of Light, leaving behind only a floating Heart in its place, Ven lands safely on the Station and holds the Heart within his hands, he accepts the Heart, as part of his own, as it enters his Body and he then lastly recalls a vision of himself floating around in Heart form being accepted into the Body of a young 4 year old Sora, finally, Ventus back in Human Body form awakes to find himself being cradled in the hands of Oswald...

 

0.2: Birth by Sleep-A Fragmentary Passage: Wind and Earth.

 

Ven-"...Ah...ugh..."

 

???-"Keep still, your still dazed from entering this Realm."

 

Ven-"...This...Realm?"

 

suddenly, Ven recalls his final confrontation with Vanitas.

 

Ven-"!? TERRA! AQUA! GAH!"

 

???-"See? i TOLD you! the more you fidget like that without having properly adjusted to the miasma of the "Wasteland" will cause you both severe and utter pain, i should know, i am this Realm's very 1st resident..."

 

Ven-"...Huh? ...? ! !? M-MICKEY!?"

 

???-"Mickey? NO YOU BIG DOPE!"

 

The rabbit like being smacks Ventus on the head.

 

Ven-"OW! HEY! WHAT DID YOU DO THAT FOR!?"

 

???-"Oswald."

 

Ven-"Huh?"

 

???-"My NAME is Oswald! Oswald..."sigh", the "lucky" rabbit, at your service."

 

Ven-"...Os...wald? what a strange name."

 

Oswald-"PFFF! not, as strange, as Ventus of all names!"

 

Ven-"Hey wait, i don't recall ever telling you my name, how did you-"

 

Oswald-"You didn't need to, the Realm of Memories told me your name."

 

Ven-"...Huh? Realm of...Memories?"

 

Oswald-"..."Sigh"...a bit slow on the uptake, aren't ya kid? welp, come on, get out of bed, there's much to be a showing you around these here parts..."

 

Ventus-"Ah! hey! wait up!"

 

Ventus chased after Oswald outside of his house to find that he was located in a completely utterly barren location of a Wasteland, hence the Realm's name.

 

Ventus-"What!? where-where is this place!? just-WHAT IS THIS PLACE!?"

 

Oswald smacks Ven on the head once more.

 

Ven-"OW! hey! quit doing that! its getting REALLY annoying!"

 

Oswald-"Ah shut up, no good complaining down here, why, its practically empty."

 

Ventus-"!? Wait-what did you, just say!?"

 

Oswald-"LIKE-I-SAID, THIS-PLACE-IS-PRACTICALLY-EMPTY, only lost beings and forgotten Memories end up here in the Wasteland..."

 

Ven-"...The Wasteland?"

 

Oswald-"Yeah, its where people who have been lost to Darkness yet for some both strange and mysterious reason haven't produced a Heartless and thus find themselves here, basically all the way out in the boonies and i quote on that: "not just in name only...", ahem, you see, its basically a place where the "special cases" of Human beings and/or any other types of beings end up in when they have met with a "Dark" fate or have become involved in any again and/or all ways relating to the Darkness whatsoever, so in other-words, YOU my friend, A-K-A Ventus, formally of the World known, as the Land of Departure are now officially a new resident of the Wasteland!"

 

Oswald sarcastically claps his hands at a very fast speed.

 

Oswald-"...Congratulations, no no, no need to thank me, i'm just doing my job is all-"

 

Ventus-"WHAT!?!?"

 

Oswald-"...Ow, that nearly burst my eardrums, there there, my poor rabbit ears..."

 

said Oswald, softly stroking his giant rabbit ears, as Ven replies:

 

Ven-"TELL ME! HOW DO I GET OUT OF HERE!?"

 

Oswald-"...Uh, "buddy"? i hate to break it to ya but the main, primary fact is: you can't, many have tried...and have all failed, believe me, i know, i have been keeping track score of all of the records."

 

Ventus-"Fine! then i'll just have to find a way on my own! i gotta get back! back to...Terra and Aqua! hup!"

 

Ventus left Oswald behind in a hurry, as the latter was left behind, sighing to himself before deciding to chase after Ven for some reason, Ventus ran, as fast, as he could whilst thinking to himself the words:

 

Ventus-"...Terra...Aqua...guys! please! be safe! i'm coming! i'm coming right now! i won't let them, i won't let them lay a single finger on either of you!"

 

Ventus recalled facial images of both Master Xehanort and Vanitas inside of within his mind before doubling his running speed, running towards the edges of the far corners of the Wasteland, it was here, Ventus' journey into Darkness...had begun.

 

Meanwhile...

 

Seen at the Dark Meridian was a young man in a Black Coat, starring out to sea, saying to himself:

 

???-"...Aqua...Ven..."

 

said the young man before deciding to take off his hood to very both shockingly and surprisingly reveal that he is none other then...Terra!

 

Back to where both Ventus and Oswald were, Ventus ran to the outskirts of the Wasteland, trying to find a way out of its Realm, only to no avail.

 

Ven-"...Huff...huff...huff...where-where is the exit around here? doesn't this place have an exit at all!?"

 

Oswald-"Nope."

 

Ven-"Ah! you again!"

 

Oswald-"...Its Oswald kid, at any rate, you won't be able to find a way out of the Realm of the Wasteland, given currently the status your actual physical Body is in."

 

Ven-"...Huh? what-what do you mean?"

 

Oswald-"Have you forgotten? you gave up your Heart in order to save your friends, don't you remember? what happened?"

 

Ventus-"! ...Ah! ...yeah, your right, now...now i remember...it was, Vanitas...he was or, STILL IS: my Dark side, i...i had to stop him, before he threatened to hurt both Terra and Aqua..."

 

Oswald-"Hmm...so you do recall your Memories, interesting, at the very least, your able to make sense of what happened to you and how you got here, tell me, do you know...what happened, to your Heart? the part that left you i mean..."

 

Ven-"...The part that...left me?"

 

Oswald-"Ahh, i see, so you can't remember beyond what happened after defeating your Dark side, i guess that's understandable, your Heart basically went into a coma and in order to recuperate itself, it went into hiding, trying to find the nearest Light possible in order to survive, without that, you probably...wouldn't even be standing here."

 

Ventus-"...Wait, i don't understand what your saying, what do you mean?"

 

Oswald-"..."Sigh", to put it simply, beforehand, back in the Realm of Light, your Heart was already divided into two, your Light half stayed inside your original Body which is who is standing in front of me right now, the one called "Ventus" whilst your Dark half created an entirely new Body in order to sustain itself, the one you called "Vanitas", you see, upon the birth of Vanitas, his Heart's creation triggered a mutation that was able to create beings that feed off the negativity within peoples' Hearts, especially including Vanitas' own Heart, they were the Unversed, all of this which you already know, however, upon the destruction of both Vanitas and the Unversed when you had destroyed the Chi-Blade, born from the combined union of both your Hearts, reintegrated with one another but not fully whole, as one anymore, seeing, as how Vanitas became his very own existence, your fused Heart was damaged and a small fragment of its Light was lost to the Darkness of which had tried to take over the Light when the Chi-Blade was still in the process of being forged, that Light was divided into two halves, the half standing in front of me here, now whilst the other went somewhere else, unfortunately i do not where, all i know is that that half of your Heart's Light, namely in other-words, you yourself Ventus are now safe somewhere and it is because of that that the half that is standing in front of me now has ended up in the Realm of the Wasteland within the even bigger Realm of Memories, here where all kinds of Memories end up in, either locked safely away within the Light of people's Hearts or lost to the Darkness when people's Hearts become consumed by the Heartless and those people when they become Heartless are forgotten about, if so, in the latter case then they end up here in the Wasteland, where Memories have either been tied to Darkness or lost to its shadows...all very complex and confusing i know but still, in a way, it does make sense...sort of."

 

Ventus-"...Heartless...what are, Heartless?"

 

Oswald-"! Seriously? that's what you took from all that? oy vey, looks like we have a lot of work to do, anyways, what i want to explain to you now is absolutely vitally crucial towards the destiny of your Heart, if the two halves of its Light are to reunite and rejoin with one another, thus completing the fully reassembled formation of the Light being known, as Ventus..."

 

Ventus-"Ven...tus."

 

Oswald-"Yeah, you buddy, fully whole again once more-! uh oh! looks we've got trouble!"

 

Heartless Shadows appear surrounding both Ventus and Oswald, preparing to bombard them with their massive amount of numbers, Oswald quickly summons his Keyblade, of which shocks Ventus:

 

Ventus-"! A Keyblade!?"

 

Oswald-"Yeah, sorry, no time for questions right about now, first, we've got to take care of these guys here first!"

 

Ventus-"R-Right!"

 

said Ventus, as he summoned his Keyblade, the Wayward Wind, together both Ventus and Oswald joined forces and had teamed up with one another against the Heartless Shadows, destroying them one by one until eventually, one Heartless Neoshadow appears, trying to surprise attack Ventus, because Ventus remembered having encountered Neoshadows before, he was taken aback by its sudden appearance and was frozen stiff, Oswald tries to help Ven but is too distracted by the Shadows in front of him, as it seemed like just about Ven was going to be struck down by the Neoshadow, suddenly, very shockingly and surprisingly coming to his rescue was the black coated Terra, wielding his Earthshaker Keyblade, destroying the Neoshadow.

 

Oswald-"!?"

 

Ventus-"!?!? T-T-T..."

 

Terra-"..."

 

Ventus-"TERRA!!!!"

 

Terra-"...Terra?"

 

Ventus-"Terra! its me! Ventus! i'm so glad your safe! your okay! nothing bad happened to you!"

 

Terra-"..."

 

Ventus-"I can't believe it, i'm not dreaming, am i? if so, either way, i'm so glad to see your safe Terra! but...what are you doing here? what's with the black coat? more importantly, where's Aqua!? do you know where she is!?"

 

Terra-"...Aqua..."

 

Ventus-"? ...Terra? what's wrong?"

 

just then, Terra raises his Earthshaker Keyblade, pointing it dead straight towards Ventus.

 

Ven-"!? T-Terra?"

 

Terra-"...That's not...that's not my name, i'm not, Terra...i'm...!? GAH!"

 

Terra suddenly drops the Earthshaker, holding his head in both hands, writhing in agony.

 

Ventus-"TERRA!?!?"

 

Ven tries to help Terra, only to get suddenly knocked back by him, as he quickly makes a sudden retreat through a Corridor of Darkness, leaving Ven behind with Oswald, as Ventus ponders his friend's sudden behaviour just then:

 

Ven-"T-Terra..."

 

Oswald-"..."

 

Deciding that this was too much for Ven to bare at the moment, Oswald had decided to take Ventus back to his home, where there, they could figure out what to do next...

 

(To be continued.).

Ramen, huh? U ma best bud

Who's your favorite Frozen character?

Raevus was up next for the launch. One of the students, some sort of deer Faunus, was taken aback by the fact that the students were being launched. Raevus chuckled a little; he'd done this kind of thing, and much more back at home. Looking around at the other students, he spotted Melody and waved across the cliff to her. Nervous.... he noted. wonder if she can handle what's at this school. Taking his stand, Raevus waited until launch.
