Traverse Town 2nd Visit

Niji yawned a bit and rubbed her eyes. "Do you need to rest?" "Yeah. I'm going to find the others then rest up a bit. You guys go talk to Cid..." She walked off.

Niji entered the Third District and found a lit up house. She entered and saw Aerith. "Aerith." Aerith looked over. "Niji. What's wrong?" "Tired..." "Oh. Come lay down. Rest up before you leave." She nodded and laid on the bed. She fell asleep.

[Second District]

Sora was fighting Heartless with Oathkeeper. He had awakened alone and his Keyblade appeared out of nowhere. He was thrown into battle with no explanation at all. "I need to find my friends."

Fire and a shield helped him out.

Sora turned to see Donald and Goofy. "Who are you?" "I'm Donald!" "And I'm Goofy! We're friends with Niji." "Niji? You know my sister?" "Yeah. We've been traveling to other worlds. Is that a Keyblade?" "Keyblade? What's that?" "It's a weapon. We know others who had one." "Really?" "Yeah. Why don't you come with us? We're on an errand for Cid. Niji is resting, so we can meet up with her later." He smiled and nodded. "Alright. I'll go with you guys!"

[Third District]

[Dream]

A young teen was running through the halls, panting.

"I'm going to be late!" The girl ran into someone outside the classroom. She fell to the ground. "Ow!" She looked up, "watch it!" She blinked as she saw two boys. "Oh! Eraqus and ... I didn't think it would be you." Eraqus helped the young girl up. "It's no trouble at all, Tulip." The other boy got up and dusted himself off. "Easy for you to say. She didn't bump into you." The two chuckled at their friend.

-End-

Niji sat up quickly and looked at her hand. "Eraqus? Who is he? And that other boy... I didn't get his name..." "Niji? Are you ok?" She looked over at Aerith. "I guess. I just... had this weird dream." "Dream?" "Yeah. I met these two boys. Eraqus was one of them." "And the other?" "I didn't hear his name." She held Niji's hand. "I'm sure you'll find the answers." "Thanks, Aerith."

Niji left the house and went to the Second District.

[Second District]

Niji heard a chime. She looked around then looked above the Gizmo Shop. She made her way there and entered. She exited and went up the ladder. She went to the bell and rung it herself. She heard something turn. She then did two more times until it stopped.

Niji jumped down and saw the keyhole. She summoned her Keyblade and walked over. She stopped once Guard Armor appeared. It was colorful though unlike the purple one from before. "Niji!" She turned to see Riku running over with a weapon. "Riku! You're ok! You also have a weapon!" "You too. Let's take this thing out!" "Alright!"

The duo fought and won. It wasn't over though. Guard Armor transformed into Opposite Armor. "It's a lot tougher now. You ready?" Niji looked at Riku then her pocket glowed green. "What is that?" She got it out and stared. "Ven...?" It shined brighter, blinding them. "Ngh!" "Agh!" They opened their eyes and noticed nothing changed. "What?" "Wait... Collision Raid!" She threw her Keyblade and it attacked the enemy more than Strike Raid ever did. "Riku!" Riku rushed in and take out the legs and arms. "Aeroga!" She shot air, which didn't protect her, but dealt damage to the enemy.

Opposite Armor vanished, a heart floating away.

Niji looked at the Wayfinder. "Ven... was that your power?" Riku got next to her. "Ven?" "I met Ventus on the island during the day. He gave me this to keep it safe for him. He's friends with Terra and Aqua." "Terra and Aqua?" "Yeah. I hope to find them while saving the worlds from the Heartless." "Traveling?" "I'm traveling with Donald and Goofy in their Gummi Ship. Sora is here resting. I had to sleep when we arrived back. I've been to two worlds so far. Where were you?" "I just arrived here. I know this-" "Niji!" "Niji!" They turned to see Sora, Donald, and Goofy. "Sora! You're awake!" Sora smiled and nodded. "Yeah. Did you find Kairi?" She frowned and shook her head. "Riku?" "No. Don't worry though. She has to be looking for us now." "We need to get going, Niji." "Can Sora and Riku join us?" "There isn't enough room on our ship." "I see." "I'll stay here to keep a look out for Kairi. Riku?"

Riku was gone.

"Riku?!" Niji looked around. She frowned and crossed her arms. "Riku..." "I'll try to find him. You guys better get going." "Ok. Thanks Sora." "No problem!" Sora smiled and had his arms behind his head.

The trio went off.
