Kingdom Hearts: From No One to Someone

Garden of the Foretellers

Vanitas was mulling over his fight with Roxas as he had finally set up everything needed for the weakling Ven.

Even making sure that the Mad Treant was weaker and lacked the flamable poison of the one that faced Roxas.

He didn't want to kill him just yet, or acidentally burn this world down in the process.

Still after reviewing the fight with Roxas he could tell immediatly that he needed to step his training up.

Roxas with his two Keyblades and mastery over light proved that he could be both valuable and problamatic to his plans. His main saving grace was that Roxas seemed to lack control over his light and seemed like it would kill him overtime.

However it was something that he was sure that Roxas could easily fix with time. So he better step up his training before then if he wanted to stand a major chance against him.

He had quite a few ideas in mind, but the first one is to perfect the Slow and Haste spells. From what he saw and figured was that due to the abundance of temporal energy that Roxas possed through crossing into this time was that he was immune to anything that stopped or possibly reversed the flow of time. Since the Slowga worked multiple times anything that only slowed or speed up the flow of time would work against him. So focusing on those spells would be paramount.

Along with digging up any spells that the old coot had lying around among the texts in their home. There was bound to be something interesting in there that he could us.

If not there was at least a few thing he could us.

The first was he could aquire that Keyblade in a world that Xehanort was sensitive about. He didn't know why as the world seemed about average to what he has seen, but the Keyblade itself was impressive.

It was a Keyblade of Garland's making.

While most of the Master of Masters was the maker of almost every known Keyblade and the way he makes them are wide spread through his own and the current era, it was an actually fact that Garland along with their Master was the greatest Keyblade makers of all time.

The Master of Masters himself admitted that it took him nearly 140 years of practice to get the craft right and was absolutly abysmal as a beginner, his younger brother was the opposite. He was a prodigy with forge Keyblades with abilities and powers rivaling and sometimes surpassing his brother's strongest Keyblades on an average basis.

Then again he was know to be extrealy picky about what he created, valued quality and technique in his works, and absolutly hated to mass produce his work.

Somewhat similar to their Master, Tatsumi who was less picky and had created some absolutly beautiful Keyblades and even mass produced some of them while keeping their quality.

Sadly after his defeat, most of his Keyblades where either destroyed or lost to time just like his Master's ones.

They don't make Keyblades like that anymore, literally as Garland and Master Tatsumi had a talent for the subject that has not been seen again in millennium.

Still despite the old coot's love for the anything concerning Keyblade history, he wouldn't allow him near the Keyblade and has actually threatened to end him if he were to take it.

Considering how important he was to the old coot's plans, it was very telling on how much he valued that Keyblade.

Why though he would have to find out, there must've something big if he could get that defensive about it.

Anyway his other method would be the back up plan he had. All he needed was for it to be activated though.

Once it did though he would have an edge over Roxas.
