[TWILIGHT TOWN]
"Sora!"
Bright blue eyes open one after the other, taking in the sudden source of light. A couple of blinks later, Sora releases a deep yawn, stretching his arms over his head as he feels the satisfying sensation of his bones cracking. The invisible walls surrounding him start to disappear, as Sora breathes in fresh air and takes a step forward. He's in an all white room, standing in what he can only describe as a large pod. Sora glances down once he's done stretching, spotting Donald and Goofy standing there giggling at his predicament.
Sora immediately leaps forward, bringing Donald and Goofy into a tight embrace as they fall onto the ground in a tangle of limbs.
"Donald, Goofy!" he exclaims as he stands to his feet and grabs onto their hands, the three of them jumping and celebrating in a circle.
"That was some nap!" Jiminy states as he safely crawls onto Sora's shoulder, once the jumping ceases.
"You mean, we were asleep?" Sora asks incredulously.
"I guess we musta been, or I don't think we'd be so drowsy," Jiminy reasons.
"When do ya think we went to sleep?" Goofy asks.
"Let's see... We defeated Ansem," Sora remembers. "Restored peace to the world. Found Kairi... Oh, yeah. Then we went to look for Riku! I think that's right so far."
"Then what?" Donald presses.
"Sora crosses his arms over his chest, the four of them deep in thought as they try to remember what's happened.
"What does your journal say, Jiminy?" Goofy asks.
Jiminy reaches into his pocket, pulling out a thick brown notebook. He opens it, flipping through the suddenly blank pages. Only two words stand out...
"'Thank Naminé'... I wonder who that is," Jiminy mutters.
"Some journal that is," Donald disses.
"Well, what do ya say we figure out where we are?" Jiminy suggests, brushing past Donald's rudeness.
Sora couldn't be more excited to agree with Jiminy, ready to explore this new place and find out why exactly he was sleeping in a weird little pod for long enough that his clothes don't exactly fit him anymore.
And find out where Riku and Kairi are...
[THEBES]
Vanitas isn't quite sure what brought him to this world. Maybe it's the culture, maybe it's the food... but it's definitely not [Name]'s presence bringing him back. That's for sure.
"Would you like to buy some apples, Mister?" a young boy asks as he bounces towards the sullen-looking Vanitas as he marches through the city.
"Fuck off," Vanitas hisses at the boy, failing to notice the tears starting to form in the kid's eyes at the unexpected insult.
Okay, so it's probably not the culture or the food bringing him back to Thebes. But it's a good city to walk through unnoticed due to the bustling, busy crowds swarming the streets at all hours.
Vanitas turns a corner, coming to a stop when he spots you walking towards him. He crosses his arms over his chest and leans a shoulder against the wall, watching your face contorted with what looked like confusion as you walk in silence. The dark-haired boy walking with you – geez, does that guy ever let you out of his sight? – gently nudges you with his elbow, bringing you out of your thoughts. Vanitas watches closely as you start to smile, laughing as you close your eyes for a second and shake your head. The boy next to you grins widely, staring down at you with admiration.
