Sea Legs (Open)(Spoiler Alert)

[Sora]

It had been a while since he had seen the Princess of Heart, and with a heavy heart Sora listened on as Ventus tried to explain things, but in doing so was telling him too much information and confusing his poor overloaded brain in the process. As he waited patiently for one of the two before him to give him a name of a world or even a description of a place, suddenly Vanille yelled out a world, which made Sora jump in place a little, his heart beating frantically to try and steady his already worried heart. After a moment, he realized what the word could have meant. "Oh! Fang is the name of the person you're looking for, isn't it? Don't worry, I'll ask around." Sora guessed easily, determining that she must have yelled out the name of the friend she was looking for, what with the distant and wistful look on her face.

He hoped she would find her friend, someday.

Finally Ventus offered some words of a location; Keyblade Graveyard. He was confused why Ventus kept calling Xehanort's Heartless 'Master Xehanort', as if he was a master of his, but he put these thoughts aside as the two spoke of the landscape the facsimilie of Roxas had mentioned. Dark, dank, and full of old keyblades like his and Ventus's? The Keyblade Master, resuming his thoughtful body language of putting his hand to his chin and his other hand on his elbow, considered this for a moment before the description dawned on him. "Oh! That's the place where Terra challenged me in his armor... I think." he paused, remembering how the voice had spoken to him as if not a voice he heard, but one he thought in his mind, but shook the memory away from his pale features. He opened his blue orbs once more, and looked to Ventus with a satisfied smile, getting the answers he had so desperately been looking for.

He finally had a lead to find her.

Ventus was talking about how Master Xehanort had a keyblade again and that he woke up in some strange castle with white walls, but at the moment Sora wasn't really listening to the keyblader's words, overcome with joy he knew where to go to find a friend. "Yeah, Xehanort's Heartless has white hair so he looks like an old man, right? I know. Thanks so much for the information you guys, but I gotta go help Kairi. I'll see you guys in another world!" he said goodbye cheerfully, and waved his hand to them, before turning around and running away back the way he had come. Taking a deep breath, all his doubts and fears had been dashed, feeling like he had gotten a second wind now he had a destination in mind. Would Kairi be there waiting for him at the Keyblade Graveyard, or had she moved on, and all Sora would find was her footsteps? The spikey-haired brunette wasn't sure; but he had to stay on her trail as best he could, and follow after her with any clues he could find.

And with that, the keyblade master had disappeared around the corner and out of sight, back into the wild yonder once more.

Sora has left the thread.

[Oerba Dia Vanille]

Vanille glanced down at her feet avoiding eye contact for the most part. She still kept her bubbly smile on, however it kind of bothered her now. Bracing her left arm with her right hand, Vanille simply went back to her thoughts while hearing the muffled voices of the two boys. She began to dwell on her thoughts again. Her friend. Wait no. Family member Fang. They were so much more than family even. It was hard to describe really. You could say it was kind of complicated. Then again it really wasn't. The only thing that mattered was that the two cared for each other and in reality, needed one another to survive. Vanille felt so lost without her counterpart around. It was like missing a part of yourself. She wished so hard that Fang was there with her.

Alas, this wasn't the case. None the less she still had the company of the two boys. She'd manage for now. After all maybe one of them could help her find Fang! All the help counted and more people meant more chances right? Vanille picked her head up and glanced over to Ventus who spoke about the weapon she tried to pick up. Keyblades huh? That sounded pretty accurate fro what she remembered. These two were clearly versed with the weapon since she had seen the two summon them. Luckily she defused the situation before it got messy. Boys could be so dramatic and violent sometimes.

The other boy's voice rang out and made Vanille perk up a bit more. "Oh that would be so wonderful! I really miss her..." Her voice faded off slightly. She did seem to be a bit more depressed, but hiding it was getting harder. It seemed that no sooner had the boy came here, he was leaving. Waving a cheerful good bye, Vanille smiled brightly again, hiding her pain away from others to see. The boy had a lead to his friend and she should be happy for him after all. At least one person could be happy. It was much better than none of them being happy. Vanille swayed back and forth as she watched the boy vanish from sight. "Bye Sora! Hope to see you again! You gotta meet Fang one day!"

Sora seemed to be getting Master Xehanort mixed up with some heartless. If there were multiple Xehanorts though, there could be serious trouble. The worlds were in enough danger with just his Master and Vanitas running around. Vanitas was kind of worried when Sora kept speaking of Xehanort's Heartless. Sora had also mentioned that Terra had challenged him in his armor form at the Graveyard. So Terra was traveling around again. That would make it harder to find him now, seeing as Ventus would have to go from world to world like last time to try and find out where he was headed. Why would Terra fight against Sora anyway if they were both Keyblade Wielders of Light? Everything was so messed up and out of order, that it made Ventus's brain hurt just thinking about it.

Sora had then rushed off to find Kairi. Definitely the energetic type that doesn't stay still for long. "H-hey, wait.' Unfortunately, by the time Ventus had started speaking, Sora was already out of sight. If he went after Kairi and Xehanort alone, he wouldn't last long. Before he could go too deep into thought, Vanille said her goodbyes to Sora, then mentioned her friend Fang again. "Well, it would be wonderful to meet her, but right now, I don't think I can. I got to go after Sora before he gets in trouble."

Ventus definitely has a lot on his plate now, and he didn't know where to start. Master Xehanort and Vanitas around, Sora rushing off and Kairi who knows where. Not to mention having to go find Aqua and Terra. Well, instead of worrying over it, he rushed off in the same direction as Sora. Summoning his armor around him, he then created a portal to leave the planet and continue his journey. Ventus then tossed his keyblade in the air, and his KeyBoard came down, which he hopped on immediately. He then turned around and waved goodbye to Vanille, as he flew off through the portal, to continue his journey which had become much more complicated.

So here she was still standing there as the boy had vanished from sight. Truly it was interesting to meet the boy Sora. It seemed that Ventus and him had quite a few things in common other than just looks. Really they all had a common goal. That was to find their friends. Were they as lost as her without their friends? It seemed so lonely sometimes and even Vanille grew scared thinking what could have happened. She never tried to let such thoughts get in the way of chatting with another, oh no. She didn't want anyone else to feel down, that was just too depressing. Life needed to be a bit more uplifting for at least one more person. It was the least she could try to do for others.

Blinking her eyes, she soon heard Ventus' voice break through the silence. The boy seemed eager to follow his look a like counter part, leaving Vanille alone. The boy rushed off after Sora. For a moment, Vanille stood there simply transfixed at watching the boy run off. It seemed like deja vu. They looked so similar. It then hit her that Ventus was running off and leaving her there. "Heeeey! Wait for me!" She yelled out as she scampered to catch up. Oh boys would be boys still she guessed. Troublesome sometimes yes, but still able to hold concern in their hearts.

If anything, Vanille didn't want to be alone. Having that company of at least one person made her feel a bit better. Perhaps along the way she could find Fang with these two. Just maybe. The little glimmer of hope was still alight in her heart. These boys had that same glimmer to for their friends. Perhaps if they came together, those small glimmers could grow into a shining light like a star. Yeah. Thats it.
