Chapter VI
"Don't give up, the beginning is always the hardest, so let's keep going until the end." ~Natsu Dragneel (Fairy Tail)
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
At the station, I pushed the pouch of money I obtained from Ansem. The lady smiled and handed me a train ticket. "Have a nice trip!" She waved at me. I watched as the train pulled into the station. Everyone who was on the train got off and I stepped on. I slipped my ticket into a box and sat down. I took a deep breath and clutched the plush train seats. I was anxious and excited at the same time. Excited that I was going to see Sora, Donald, and Goofy again, but anxious on when I was going to tell them the truth.
Then, the train was in complete darkness and it was followed by a sunset scenery. The train slowed to a stop. I looked out the window to see a sunset sky with a huge tower in the way. The train doors opened and I stepped out. I walked over to the train door and hesitated at the knob. What if I was too early and Sora and the others haven't arrived yet? Well, there was only one way to find out...
I twisted the door knob open and stepped into the tower. The door swung back closed. My footsteps echoed through the tower as I hiked up the endless stairs and opened the door. I stepped into a study. An old wizard with blue robes was at his desk. He smiled at me. "Sakura, you came here just in time."
"Master Yen Sid," I curtsied at him.
"That was not necessary, but I appreciate the respect you show to me," Yen Sid nodded me off. "Are you here to pick up Sora, Donald, and Goofy?"
"Yup," I nodded.
"Sora and the others are in the other room," Yen Sid directed me to where Sora was. "He's getting fitted into new clothes."
I nodded, approached the door and twisted the knob open. There was Sora, Donald, Goofy, and three fairies with him. They could not decide on what outfit to give him. "I think they should be blue!" The blue fairy said, waving her wand and turning Sora's outfit blue.
"I think red is a more suitable color," the red fairy chased her magic and turned Sora's outfit red.
"How about green?" The green fairy asked, turning Sora's outfit green.
"Blue!" The blue fairy waved her wand.
"Red!" The red fairy waved her wand.
"Green!" The green fairy waved her wand.
"Red!" The red hair waved her wand.
"Green!" The green fairy waved her wand.
"Blue!" The blue fairy waved wand.
"Aw, can you three stop fighting?" Sora begged.
"He's right," the red fairy sighed. "Alright, wands together; no more squabbling!"
They waved their wands at once and pointed it at Sora's clothes, completely transforming them into something new. His new outfit was much like his old one. The hoodie was colored black, with silver pauldron-like additions to his sleeves and white lining. His undershirt was a navy blue with a red patch in the center. His pants, similar to chaps, were colored black on the outside, and a navy blue on the inside, lined with silver-white edging, yellow straps criss-cross around his pants, held together with a black belt. The pants feature red pockets with a black cross over them. His gloves were colored black on the outside and white on the inside with a yellow line running around them. He also wore large black-yellow shoes with silver soles, a zipper running across the top, and black straps holding them together with buckles here and there. His crown pendant was present on this attire.
"Wow..." Everyone breathed.
"And look, we got a bonus with it," the green fairy said as a golden orb flew to Sora. He grabbed it.
"And watch what happens," the blue fairy smiled.
Sora's outfit glowed and turned red with silver designs on it. He had two Keyblades; Oathkeeper and Oblivion. "Wow, two Keyblades!" Donald and Goofy gasped.
"This journey is going time twice as hard as your last one," the blue fairy explained.
"Now...Sakura? Is that you?" the green fairy asked.
Everyone turned around to see me at the doorway. I greeted everyone. "Hello," I waved.
"SAKURA!!!" Sora screamed as he ran up to me and crushed me in a bear hug.
"Sora...can't...breathe...." I choked.
"Sorry!" He laughed as he let go of me.
"Do you remember us?" The red fairy asked. "You helped us once."
I tipped my head to the side. "No, I'm sorry I don't remember," I shook my head.
"Such a pity," the green fairy said. "You were such a help to us and you saved quite a few lives that day."
"I'm sorry, I don't remember," I sighed.
We walked out of the dressing room and Master Yen Sid smiled at our new clothes. He waved his hands and the Gummi Ship appeared. "The Gummi Ship!" Donald cried, running it the window.
"You guys ready to go?" Sora asked.
We nodded yes and stood up straight, chest puffed out and our hands up at our heads as we saluted him to see any final instructions from Yen Sid. He gestured us to relax. "Now, now," he said. "Because of your previous endeavors, the worlds have returned to their original states. That means the pathways between them have disappeared."
"How do we get around?" Donald asked.
"Do not fear," he assured us. "If what the King suspected proves true, the worlds have new pathways along which you may travel. These pathways may be utilized by unlocking special gates. How these gates are opened, I'm afraid I do not know...however, the Keyblade will serve as your guides. When two beams of light radiates from the Keyblades, return to the Gummi Ship. Though the worlds may seem far apart and out of reach, they nonetheless remained connected by unbreakable ties. As do our hearts."
"Our hearts are connected," Sora said.
"That is correct," Master Yen Sid smiled.
"Got it!"We nodded.
"But, be warned," Yen Sid warned. "As you proceed...the Heartless and the Nobodies will be suing their own paths: Corridors of Darkness, to travel from world to world. They may be attempting to link these dark pathways to the gates between the worlds."
"Hey, that's not fair!" Donald cried.
"Now then, that's all the information I can give you," he replied. "Go forth, Sora, Donald, Goofy, and Sakura. Everyone's waiting."
"Okay, let's get going!" Sora yelled.
We stood up straight again. "Master Yen Sid!" Donald said.
"We sure do appreciate the help," Goofy thanked. We saluted him one last time and ran out of the tower to go in the Gummi Ship and travel into the unknown.
