The Keyblade War Chapter I

Chapter Twenty Eight: The Four Spirits Awaken

In Disney Castle, King Mickey, Terra and Aqua are in the library formulating battle strategies and trying to search for any clues regarding the Unborn, and if there's any hope of defeating them for good. They've been working tirelessly, making sure that the townspeople of Disney Castle can sleep peacefully. Everyone is hard at work trying to maintain what little peace remains.

King Mickey: Gosh fellas, you two have been working hard. Why don't you get some rest? Me and Minnie will take care of things.

Terra: Are you sure?

King Mickey: Of course. I'll let you know if anything comes up.

Aqua: Thank you, Your Majesty.

And so Terra and Aqua walk down the halls of the castle, and both of them remain silent, as if they are unable to utter any words that can make the situation better. Aqua stops and suddenly tears start rolling down her eyes. She kneels down and keeps crying, and Terra holds her close to him.

Aqua: I'm sorry, it's just that...

Terra: I know. It's not easy for any of us. But we have to be strong. We've gotten this far, we can go a little further. I know this war has washed away our strength to no end, but as long as we're together, everything's bound to be all right.

Aqua looks up to Terra and she comforts herself in his arms. She smiles and kisses him passionately.

Aqua: Thank you Terra. Thank you for making me feel better. As long as you're by my side, I'll be able to pull through this.

Terra: Of course.

They keep walking and make their way towards the courtyard, and they gaze upon the beautiful garden. They sit on a bench and hold each other close. Suddenly, a sad expression can be seen on Terra's face. Aqua gently rubs his hand and looks at him.

Aqua: What is it Terra? What's wrong?

Terra: It's Eraqus. When I fought him, I saw the light within him. For a moment he was himself again, but the darkness took over him again. But I think he's regained some of his own willpower back. He didn't strike me down, he just left. I just hope that I can save him...

Aqua: You can and you will. And I'll help you. Eraqus still has light within him, and it's up to us to bring him back to our side. It won't be an easy task, of that I'm sure, but we have to try the best that we can.

Terra: You're right. We have to remain focused, and fight until the very end.

Yuffie: Hey guys, come over here!

Terra and Aqua look towards Yuffie, as she excitedly urges them to come to the Engine Room. They both head towards there, and when they arrive, they see the airship Cid and the others built.

Cid: Ha Ha Ha, ain't she a beauty? My finest masterpiece if I do say so myself.

Yuffie: The airship is all done and ready for battle!

Leon: Now at least we'll have some advantage in this war. And we owe it all to Cid, Chip and Dale.

Cid: Think nothing of it! I'll do anything to see those bad guys long gone.

Leon: Terra, I have to talk to you for a moment.

Terra looks a little puzzled for a moment, but goes to Leon while the others continue to admire the airship.

Terra: What is it?

Leon: I was investigating around town since the last attack, and I found this. It looks like it might belong to Eraqus. It might be a piece of his armor.
