"Were am I?" Asked Roxas.

He could tell that he was asleep, but it felt like that it was awake. He was in what appeared to be a town square he had never seen before. There was a multitude of old fashion looking house surrounding it, all of them had purple painted on their roofs. In the center was a simple circle with a star-shaped pattern with in the middle of each of its sides was a small yellow circle. Within the center of the shape was a simple fountain. He noticed that there was two sets of stairs on both sides of the square, one going down and the other one leading upwards. The Nobody finally noticed something in the background.

"That is a huge castle." He said that he and Sora had been to quite a large number of worlds with large castles, it was saying something. It was probably the fourth or fifth largest one he has seen.

The castle seemed to be arched shape with nothing on the legs until the middle. The opening was like a giant clock with a large pendulum include with it. Both sides had a large amounts of towers on it. Roxas couldn't really see that much more of it, but it was quite a spectacle to behold. He had never seen a castle like that before.

 But it was shattered when he saw a familiar annoyance.

"Great, Heartless." Roxas said with annoyance. He summoned his Keyblades as he saw what had become a regular pain during his time with Organization XIII.

It was a trio of small black humanoids with a round, spherical head. They didn't have any digits on their feet and each had 3 clawed fingers on their hands. On each of their head they had 2 twisted antenna and a pair of glowing yellow eyes. Each time one of them moved, they twitched all over their body. 

They were Shadows, the most common species of Heartless.

With a sigh Roxas summoned Oblivion and tried to hit the nearest one. But he was surprised that it passed through it and the Shadow didn't even react to it. Roxas was surprised at that, before he realized one simple fact,

"This is just a dream. So of course they wouldn't attack." He said to no on e in particular. He was so used to always fighting them for over a year, that it became almost instinctual to him. He was prepared to leave the courtyard when he saw one of the Heartless was defeated.

"Another Keyblade wielder, this is the fourth time today!" He exclaimed. It was starting to get annoying.

The new Keyblade wielder looked to be a girl around his physical age and height with blue eyes and short lavender hair with 2 bangs that framed her face on either side. She had black boots, black capari pants with a belt, a black U-neck shirt, white gloves with red ribbons on the wrists, and to complete the look a red sleeveless jacket with a white trim. He saw her take out the second Shadow and got a better look at her Keyblade.

'Her Keyblade...it almost looks like the Kingdom Key.' The Nobody thought.

In fact it was very similar. The grip was the same as the Kingdom Key. So was the guard, except it was blue. The rainguard was gold and the shaft was light blue and ended with an orb by the teeth. The teeth were actually double edged with one end a simple spike and the other a five-point star. The keychain was similar to the Kingdom Key except that it ended with a golden star. With it the girl sliced the last one and watched as it dispelled.

"That should be the last of them." The girl said. As she unknowingly turned her back to Roxas a voice came out from behind them.

"Not quite."

Roxas turned around to see Ava, but her hood was pink and her shirt was light purple. A far cry of her faded colors that she wore in the Realm of Nothingness. He tried to get her attention, but was unable to.
