Oh Memories As heavy as a stone

There's a ghost in the mirror I'm afraid more than ever

My feet have led me straight into my graveOh Lord have you walked away from me?From me Paper Route - Glass Heart Hymn 


When Saira had once again opened her sea-green eyes they were blinded by such a bright light that had surrounded her from all sides of where she stood and from what she could make out the only color was blue. Such a wide range of one color filled her sight even after her mind had started to register that while slowly treading foreword her shoes made the ground send out types of ripples one would make in water.

" 𝒲𝒽𝒶𝓉....𝒾𝓈 𝓉𝒽𝒾𝓈 𝓅𝓁𝒶𝒸𝑒? ....𝓌𝒶𝓈𝓃'𝓉 𝒾 𝒾𝓃 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝓀𝑒𝓎𝒷𝓁𝒶𝒹𝑒 𝑔𝓇𝒶𝓋𝑒𝓎𝒶𝓇𝒹 𝒿𝓊𝓈𝓉 𝓃𝑜𝓌 ?"

Saira glanced down at herself and gasped turning over her arms she noticed that her body wasn't solid anymore instead she had become a shimmering blue...almost transparent like a ghost of sorts then she reached up with her left hand gripping her head.

"𝔚𝔢𝔩𝔠𝔬𝔪𝔢 𝔟𝔯𝔞𝔳𝔢 𝔣𝔞𝔩𝔩𝔢𝔫 𝔬𝔫𝔢 𝔱𝔬 𝔶𝔬𝔲𝔯 𝔫𝔢𝔵𝔱 𝔣𝔞𝔱𝔢𝔡 𝔧𝔬𝔲𝔯𝔫𝔢𝔶 ...𝔶𝔬𝔲 𝔥𝔞𝔳𝔢 𝔣𝔬𝔲𝔤𝔥𝔱 𝔦𝔫 𝔞 𝔟𝔞𝔱𝔱𝔩𝔢 𝔴𝔥𝔦𝔩𝔢 𝔰𝔱𝔦𝔩𝔩 𝔰𝔬 𝔶𝔬𝔲𝔫𝔤 ...𝔱𝔥𝔢𝔯𝔢 𝔥𝔞𝔰 𝔟𝔢𝔢𝔫 𝔪𝔬𝔯𝔢 𝔩𝔦𝔨𝔢 𝔶𝔬𝔲 𝔟𝔢𝔣𝔬𝔯𝔢 𝔟𝔲𝔱 𝔫𝔬𝔱 𝔞𝔰 𝔰𝔭𝔢𝔠𝔦𝔞𝔩 ."

Saira snapped her head up and looked around the seemly never-ending place not able to track the new voice that spoke before her, Saira turned around making a full circle trying to once again match the voice to a face that spoke to her.

"𝒯𝑒𝓁𝓁 𝓂𝑒 𝓌𝒽𝒶𝓉 𝒾𝓈 𝓉𝒽𝒾𝓈 𝓅𝓁𝒶𝒸𝑒 ...𝒾𝓂 𝒹𝑒𝒶𝒹 𝒶𝓇𝓃𝓉 𝒾 ?"

" 𝔜𝔢𝔰 𝔡𝔢𝔞𝔱𝔥 𝔥𝔞𝔰 𝔱𝔞𝔨𝔢𝔫 𝔶𝔬𝔲 ....𝔞𝔫𝔡 𝔟𝔯𝔬𝔲𝔤𝔥𝔱 𝔶𝔬𝔲 𝔱𝔬 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔉𝔦𝔫𝔞𝔩 𝔚𝔬𝔯𝔩𝔡 𝔟𝔲𝔱 𝔱𝔬 𝔱𝔥𝔬𝔰𝔢 𝔴𝔥𝔬 𝔭𝔞𝔰𝔰 𝔱𝔥𝔯𝔬𝔲𝔤𝔥 𝔥𝔢𝔯𝔢 𝔩𝔦𝔨𝔢 𝔱𝔬 𝔰𝔭𝔢𝔞𝔨 𝔬𝔣 𝔦𝔱 𝔞𝔰 𝔗𝔥𝔢 ℌ𝔢𝔞𝔳𝔢𝔫 𝔬𝔣 ℌ𝔢𝔞𝔯𝔱𝔰 "

Saira turned around to be faced with a bright glow of a shape taking a form of a star it was not a solid star. Leaning closer to the star both looked over each other until one had spoken up shocking the Princess and making her take a step back.

"𝔜𝔬𝔲𝔯 𝔬𝔫𝔩𝔶 𝔟𝔲𝔱 𝔰𝔱𝔦𝔩𝔩 𝔞 𝔠𝔥𝔦𝔩𝔡 ...𝔴𝔥𝔬 𝔥𝔞𝔰 𝔪𝔲𝔠𝔥 𝔩𝔢𝔞𝔯𝔫𝔦𝔫𝔤 𝔩𝔢𝔣𝔱 𝔱𝔬 𝔡𝔬 ...𝔦𝔣 𝔶𝔬𝔲 𝔠𝔥𝔬𝔰𝔢 𝔱𝔬 𝔡𝔬 𝔰𝔬 𝔴𝔦𝔱𝔥 𝔱𝔥𝔢 𝔯𝔢𝔪𝔞𝔦𝔫𝔦𝔫𝔤 𝔰𝔱𝔯𝔢𝔫𝔤𝔱𝔥 𝔦 𝔥𝔞𝔳𝔢 ...𝔶𝔬𝔲 𝔠𝔬𝔲𝔩𝔡 𝔯𝔢𝔱𝔲𝔯𝔫 𝔟𝔞𝔠𝔨 𝔱𝔬 𝔱𝔥𝔢 𝔴𝔬𝔯𝔩𝔡 "

Saira tilted her head not understanding what the Star spoke of ....how could she return back from the dead ...her heart and body both turned into glittering shards of light.

"𝒴𝑒𝓈 ....𝓌𝒽𝒶𝓉 𝑒𝓋𝑒𝓇 𝒾𝓉 𝓉𝒶𝓀𝑒𝓈 𝓂𝓎 𝓅𝓁𝒶𝒸𝑒 𝒾𝓈 𝒷𝒶𝒸𝓀 𝓌𝒾𝓉𝒽 𝓂𝓎 𝒻𝒶𝓂𝒾𝓁𝓎 𝒶𝓃𝒹 𝒻𝓇𝒾𝑒𝓃𝒹𝓈 𝓉𝒽𝑒𝓎 𝓃𝑒𝑒𝒹 𝓂𝑒 ...𝒾 𝒿𝓊𝓈𝓉 𝓀𝓃𝑜𝓌 𝒾𝓉 ...𝓉𝒽𝑒𝓇𝑒 𝒾𝓈 𝓈𝑜𝓂𝑒𝓉𝒽𝒾𝓃𝑔 𝒷𝒾𝑔 𝓉𝒽𝒶𝓉 𝓈𝓉𝒾𝓁𝓁 𝒽𝒶𝓈 𝒶 𝓅𝓁𝒶𝓃 𝒻𝑜𝓇 𝓂𝑒 ....𝒷𝓊𝓉 𝒽𝑜𝓌 ...𝒸𝒶𝓃 𝒾 ? "

The Star glowed a bright blinding flash of white light and then there was a floating necklace in between them both, The necklace was a design of a silver chain with a small golden emblem Terra's Mark known to only keyblade wielders resting in the middle of it was a purple gem.

"𝔗𝔞𝔨𝔢 𝔱𝔥𝔦𝔰 𝔱𝔥𝔢 𝔤𝔢𝔪 𝔴𝔦𝔩𝔩 𝔟𝔢 𝔞 𝔱𝔶𝔭𝔢 𝔬𝔣 𝔰𝔬𝔲𝔯𝔠𝔢 𝔣𝔬𝔯 𝔱𝔥𝔢𝔪 𝔱𝔬 𝔯𝔢𝔰𝔱 ,𝔒𝔫𝔩𝔶 𝔟𝔶 𝔯𝔢𝔳𝔦𝔰𝔦𝔱𝔦𝔫𝔤 𝔶𝔬𝔲𝔯 𝔪𝔢𝔪𝔬𝔯𝔦𝔢𝔰 𝔶𝔬𝔲 𝔠𝔞𝔫 𝔣𝔦𝔫𝔡 𝔱𝔥𝔢 𝔬𝔫𝔢𝔰 𝔱𝔥𝔞𝔱 𝔟𝔞𝔯𝔢 𝔞 𝔰𝔱𝔯𝔬𝔫𝔤 𝔩𝔦𝔫𝔨 𝔱𝔬 𝔯𝔢𝔠𝔯𝔢𝔞𝔱𝔢 𝔞 𝔫𝔢𝔴 𝔟𝔬𝔡𝔶 𝔣𝔬𝔯 𝔶𝔬𝔲 𝔲𝔫𝔱𝔦𝔩 𝔱𝔥𝔢 𝔱𝔦𝔪𝔢 𝔠𝔬𝔪𝔢𝔰 𝔣𝔬𝔯 𝔶𝔬𝔲𝔯 𝔥𝔢𝔞𝔯𝔱 𝔱𝔬 𝔯𝔢𝔱𝔲𝔯𝔫 𝔟𝔞𝔠𝔨 "

Saira smiled and softly gripped the necklace close to her chest and then jumped as a large swirling corridor of light opened not to fair from them both walking slowly foreword the Princess stopped and turned around once more.

"𝒴𝑜𝓊 𝓈𝒶𝒾𝒹 𝓉𝒽𝒶𝓉 𝓌𝒽𝑒𝓃 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝓉𝒾𝓂𝑒 𝒻𝑜𝓇 𝓂𝓎 𝒽𝑒𝒶𝓇𝓉 𝓉𝑜 𝓇𝑒𝓉𝓊𝓇𝓃 .....𝒹𝑜𝑒𝓈 𝓉𝒽𝒶𝓉 𝓂𝑒𝒶𝓃 𝓎𝑜𝓊 𝓀𝓃𝑜𝓌 𝓌𝒽𝑒𝓇𝑒 𝒾𝓉𝓈 𝒶𝓉 𝓇𝒾𝑔𝒽𝓉 𝓃𝑜𝓌? "

Saira asked the Star with hope laced in her voice to her shock a burst of soft laughter filled the space and had responded with a voice filled with such warmth and tenderness in it,

"𝔜𝔬𝔲𝔯 𝔥𝔢𝔞𝔯𝔱 𝔡𝔢𝔞𝔯 𝔠𝔥𝔦𝔩𝔡 𝔠𝔬𝔲𝔩𝔡 𝔫𝔬𝔱 𝔟𝔢 𝔦𝔫 𝔞 𝔭𝔩𝔞𝔠𝔢 𝔞𝔫𝔶𝔪𝔬𝔯𝔢 𝔰𝔞𝔣𝔢 ....𝔴𝔥𝔦𝔩𝔢 𝔦𝔱 𝔦𝔰 𝔱𝔯𝔲𝔢 𝔱𝔥𝔞𝔱 𝔶𝔬𝔲𝔯 𝔬𝔴𝔫 𝔦𝔰 𝔰𝔞𝔣𝔢 𝔦𝔱 𝔯𝔢𝔰𝔱'𝔰 𝔦𝔫 𝔞 𝔭𝔩𝔞𝔠𝔢 𝔴𝔥𝔢𝔯𝔢 𝔦𝔱 𝔰𝔥𝔞𝔩𝔩 𝔤𝔲𝔞𝔯𝔡 𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔯 𝔞𝔫𝔬𝔱𝔥𝔢𝔯 ".

With a soft smile, Saira slowly walked forward into the bright swirling light corridor her grip on the necklace tightened after it closed only one voice had spoken its last remaining words into the air,

"𝔓𝔩𝔢𝔞𝔰𝔢 𝔙𝔢𝔫𝔱𝔲𝔰 𝔱𝔞𝔨𝔢 𝔠𝔞𝔯𝔢 𝔬𝔣 𝔐𝔶 𝔇𝔢𝔞𝔯 𝔩𝔦𝔱𝔱𝔩𝔢 ℭ𝔥𝔦𝔩𝔡 ".

Meanwhile Aqua had taken Ventus's comatose body back to the Land of Departure only now it would be forever known as Castle Oblivion,

" 𝙸 𝚔𝚗𝚘𝚠 𝚒𝚝'𝚜 𝚊 𝚕𝚘𝚗𝚎𝚕𝚢 𝚙𝚕𝚊𝚌𝚎, 𝚋𝚞𝚝 𝚢𝚘𝚞'𝚕𝚕 𝚋𝚎 𝚜𝚊𝚏𝚎. 𝚃𝚎𝚛𝚛𝚊 𝚊𝚗𝚍 𝙸 𝚠𝚒𝚕𝚕 𝚋𝚎 𝚋𝚊𝚌𝚔 𝚝𝚘 𝚠𝚊𝚔𝚎 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚞𝚙 𝚋𝚎𝚏𝚘𝚛𝚎 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚔𝚗𝚘𝚠 𝚒𝚝."

With a sad parting and a sworn promise by Aqua to be back before the boy would wake up she left him inside the Chamber of Waking ...but he was not alone for a bright glowing pink light pulsed from his Wayfinder the sound of a young girl filled the chamber the pink light zipped out from the object and climbed onto the boy's lap taking a transparent image of a little girl.

" 𝐼𝓉𝓈 𝓂𝓎 𝓉𝓊𝓇𝓃 𝓉𝑜 𝓀𝑒𝑒𝓅 𝓎𝑜𝓊 𝓈𝒶𝒻𝑒 𝒱𝑒𝓃 "

The voice spoke to the boy then faded with a soft giggle but not before causing a soft smile to appear on Ventus's sleeping face.
