Ramiel went to Destiny islands and he saw Aqua with her master's keyblade. Because she lost hers in the abyss of the realm of darkness.
"You're fine with that?" Ramiel snuck up on her and she squeaked. "Ahhh, yes. But it's kind of ironic. Using master Eraqus' keyblade when he was an avid supporter of the light." Aqua smiled wryly.
She was now a user of darkness, even more so than Terra. And Terra failed the mark of mastery because of that.
"He'll understand, I think." He chuckled and thought it would be a blast to see his reaction at Aqua using darkness like a pro.
"Let's gather the other princesses of heart then." Ramiel saw a star shaped fruit. "A paopu fruit, did you know that they say when it is shared between people, their destiny will be intertwined?" Aqua took one.
"I can't say yes, but that's a nice little saying." Ramiel chuckled. Esdeath then stared at it and looked at him. She took one as well and handed the half of it to him.
"Let's share one." Esdeath was eager and he didn't expect that she would believe it. "I didn't peg you to be one who believes in myths." Though he still took it and ate it, surprised by its pretty pleasant flavor. Like a peach and mango at the same time.
"Can I share one with you too as well?" Aqua embarrassingly went up to him. Deep inside, she did not want him to leave her. Like how she was left alone in the realm of darkness.
"Sure, it's pretty tasty anyway." He ate half of hers as well and they started their journey in the ocean between.
While en route to Tangled's world Ramiel felt a space time anomaly. "Wait a minute, let's go there." They travelled to the pocket dimension and they got flashed by light.
"My eyes, damn it. This place is too bright, makes me want to cover it in darkness." Esdeath complained and Aqua was getting annoyed too.
"Huh, time isn't flowing here. Just like the realm of darkness." Ramiel checked the magic and it was pretty intricately made.
He then realized where they were. "Ahhh, this is Merlin's hyperbolic time chamber. Where two guardians of light were to train, but they were still useless." Ramiel laughed his ass off.
The trainees just ate sea salt ice cream and wrote journals. Wasting time instead of preparing themselves for the keyblade war.
"Two guardians of light? But wouldn't they be able to train for possibly years before the war comes?" Aqua was baffled and wondered why they were still useless after all that time.
"It's simple Aqua, I already told you. People here have rainbows and unicorn farts in their brains. Let's check them out, shall we?" He located Kairi and Axel.
The two were sitting on some logs and looking at the unchanging sunset. Eating some blue ice cream that made Ramiel nostalgic.
"Hello there." Ramiel greeted and Axel immediately materialized his keyblade. "Lea, they're friendly. Look, master Aqua is with them." Kairi smiled and trusted Aqua.
"Wait a minute, aren't you that girl from radiant garden? You've grown up really well." Aqua remembered Kairi from years ago, she saved her from enemies and she migrated to destiny islands as Radiant garden which turned to hollow bastion fell.
"Master Aqua, what are you doing here?" Kairi went up to them and Axel calmed down. "A keyblade master like Mickey and Riku?" He was feeling a bit suspicious, there was something on them that felt familiar.
"We were roaming around the worlds to protect the princesses of heart. And then we noticed this space time anomaly." Aqua wasn't really making it up and they nodded.
"Really? That's a big help." Kairi smiled as she was a princess of heart as well. "So, how's your boyfriend Sora? And his boyfriend Riku?" Ramiel asked and Axel choked on his saliva.
"Sora's boyfriend Riku? Is that right, Kairi?" He turned to Kairi whose eyebrows twitched at his words. "D-don't be silly, Riku and Sora are just the bestest of friends since they were kids."
"Is that so?" Ramiel didn't believe her one bit. There was an odd tension between Sora and Riku. They love each other too much.
"Anyways, who are your friends master Aqua? And do you know Sora or Riku?" Kairi looked at Ramiel and he shrugged. "You could say I know him, but he doesn't know me."
"Kairi... You're a princess of heart right? Can you help Ramiel over here? His heart is injured and he needs the princesses to heal him." Aqua asked for a favor and Kairi immediately agreed.
"Are you sure you can help him?" Axel raised a brow and Kairi shook her head. "Nonsense, I'll help him with this. So, Ramiel. How can I help you?" Kairi smiled at him.
"Why thank you, just don't flinch." Ramiel shoved his hand inside her chest and she gasped. "Kairi! What the hell are you doing you bastard!?" Axel was about to attack him, but Aqua stopped him.
"It's fine, he already did that to two princesses of heart. Nothing happened to them." She explained and Axel stopped in his tracks, though he was still apprehensive.
"This feels weird, like someone is touching me from the inside. Though it isn't really uncomfortable." Kairi had a complicated expression. "Phrasing young lady, you can't say it like that." Ramiel sighed.
After a few moments, he found the shard of the chi-blade and his strength got another exponential boost. "This is addicting, power really would make someone go crazy." Ramiel sighed and he put it in control.
"What happened? Did you need something from my heart?" Kairi was curious and he nodded. "You see, I am Kingdom Hearts. Shards of my being are scattered throughout the world." He didn't really lie because he had a portion of kingdom hearts in him.
"You're what!?" Kairi, Axel, and even Aqua shouted simultaneously. "Want me to prove it?" Ramiel snapped his fingers and swapped Aqua and Kairi's hearts. He was able to do it now with his heart healing more.
"Woah!? T-this is freaky." Aqua talked while in Kairi's body. He then reverted them back, all of them believing him. "So you're Xehanort's target? Isn't it really dangerous for you to be roaming then? What if organization XIII gets their hands on you?" Axel knew that they were thirsting for kingdom hearts.
"I'd like to see them try, one of your organization members already did so." Esdeath replied and she remembered the cloak that he had on, it was just like the organization. He also have darkness inside him.
"Oops, we're running late. Remember to be more aggressive, or your boyfriend will favor his boyfriend more." Ramiel smirked and they disappeared in a corridor of darkness, surprising both of them.
"We need to tell Merlin about this, Mickey and the others need to know. Aqua is roaming around a personification of Kingdom Hearts. And he's attuned to darkness." Axel immediately ran to Merlin.

"You didn't tell me that you're literally kingdom hearts? What's with that?" Aqua was shocked. "Well, technically, I'm a part of kingdom hearts, not really the kingdom hearts if you get my drift. And it doesn't really matter." He shrugged.
"It doesn't matter he says, it does! Everyone is coming out to get you for power." Aqua grumbled and Esdeath snorted. "Like it even matters, I'd like to see them try and get his powers for themselves. He hasn't quite shown you what he's capable of."
"That's true... But shouldn't we like stay together with the others to be safer?" Aqua was just worried and he patted her head. "Don't be too anxious Aqua, do you not trust me? It will be fine." He waved her off and she grumbled.
They arrived in a forest and the sunlight shone from the skies. "Hmm, this place is really pleasant. Too bad it's a prison for someone." Ramiel felt quite bad for Rapunzel, she was locked up in the tower for her whole life. And it wasn't even that hard to get out of. She's just brainwashed and didn't have a single idea how to survive outside.
The trio roamed around for a bit and Ramiel thought it was enough sight seeing, so he checked any signs of life in the area and found two somewhere. They flew to the area and saw a tower. "Is that where she is?" Esdeath raised a brow and her expectations were a palace or something.
"Yeah, she's a prisoner there for her whole life." He explained and Aqua gasped. "Her whole life? Not even able to get out like a caged bird." Ramiel shrugged, thinking that is how it is sometimes. Her status might be boring as hell that would drive someone insane, but it sure isn't the worst.
Ramiel jumped at the window of the tower and hanged on the beam with his hand, he then knocked and a chameleon jumped right at his face. Though he intercepted it and caught it with his hand.
"Let go of him! I'm warning you, I have a dangerous weapon on my hands." Rapunzel appeared and she had a cast iron pan. Ramiel snorted. "You think that's a dangerous weapon? Come on, try to hit me with it." Ramiel leaned his head in.
Rapunzel had doubts and he wasn't really manhandling her pet chameleon. "Who are you and what do you want?" She raised a brow and he thought about it. "Hmmm, how about you?" He smirked at her and she did hit him with the pan.
"That wasn't nice." Ramiel didn't flinch and Rapunzel was shocked, the chameleon even had its jaws drop. Seeing an imprint of his head on the pan as she hit him with all her might. "Now, that isn't a way to treat a guest."
He went inside of the tower and looked around. "Nice paintings, you an artist or something?" He nodded at the paintings she has done and Rapunzel felt weird about his presence. "Who are you? Did you come for my hair? I'm telling you, if I don't sing the incantation it won't work." Rapunzel squinted her eyes.
"Pft, like your hair has any meaning to me. I can use magic girl, it's much cooler than what your hair can do." He snapped his fingers and her chameleon floated in the air, flying around. "Pascal! Put him down."
He dropped it right on her face and he sat down. "I'm not after your hair, though I do need something from you." He explained and she had an idea. Obviously, it was her desire to get out of there and have some excitement in her life.
"What is it then?" She wanted to compromise. "Your heart." He didn't give any context and she tilted her head in confusion, Rapunzel then gasped. "Are you a part of a cult!? You want to take my heart for a blood ritual!?" She backed off in horror.
"What? No, where did you even learn that crap? I need something inside of you. Hah, you know what. I'll grant you a wish for it, I can do at least that much. It's pretty depressing to just talk to a chameleon all the time." He shrugged and Pascal frowned at him.
"A wish? Can you really grant it?" Rapunzel heard the whispers of the devil and her chameleon waved its hand around as if to tell that it's a bad idea.
"Yeah, anything you want. Tell me what is it that you desire." He smiled at her like the devil and tempted her to no end.
"Then can you take me out of here? take me to the kingdom and see the festival of lanterns?" She got excited to no end. "No, though I can do something much better." She slumped down, but his words made her curious.
"Do you want to see the world in a way that only you could experience?" He stood up made her float. "W-what do you mean?" Rapunzel got anxious and excited at the same time.
"It's a yes or no question woman." He quipped and she nodded immediately, feeling that he would show her something amazing. "Then hold tight." He put his arm on her waist and he flew to the skies.
"It seems that's them, come on." Esdeath saw them fly out of the tower and the two followed. Rapunzel screamed and she closed her eyes, thinking they would die. But instead of a floaty feeling, the wind was coming from the front.
"Why even go on an adventure if you won't look? Open your eyes." He ordered and Rapunzel opened her eyes, gasping at the sight. They were high up in the skies and they can even touch the clouds.
"Was it everything that you expected?" He smiled and her eyes shone. "It's beautiful... I feel so free, is this how birds feel?" She watched the sceneries with a wide smile on her face and her chameleon was holding on for its dear life.
After sightseeing for a few minutes, they returned to the ground and she was scared to touch the grass. "Will it really be fine? It's not poisonous or anything?" She looked at him with worry while he was carrying her.
"Don't be a scaredy cat, it's harmless." He sighed and she slowly put her bare feet on the ground. She then looked around, the trees, the shrubs, flowers. It felt magical, like she has seen a whole new world.
Ramiel then sat down nearby a tree and let her frolic around like a little girl that got outside after being grounded. "Why are we even doing this? Shouldn't you just get the shard of the chi-blade in her heart and leave?" Esdeath was baffled by his actions and effort.
"You won't understand Esdeath, he's letting her experience the world. Look at how happy she is at seeing things that you'd take for granted, it's honestly sad." Aqua frowned and Esdeath understood that he was a softie.
"Then can I request to have a child? It would make me really happy." Esdeath shot her shot. "No, not right now." He sighed at her antics and Aqua choked on her saliva.
"But she does have a point Ramiel, how long will we indulge her?" Aqua thought it was nice that he was fulfilling her dream. But they weren't a charity. And they still have to find three more unknown princesses of heart.
"We've got all the time in the world Aqua, just like you said. Nature is something that you'd take for granted, why not enjoy it for what it is for now? You've been in the realm of darkness for so long, how about you just look around and appreciate it?" Ramiel patted their heads to calm them down.
They were locked in a journey, it would be a shame to not just enjoy the new worlds that they would encounter. Aqua then looked at Rapunzel having the time of her life and thought it was nice to have such a simple outlook in life.
"You're right, it'd be a crime to not enjoy it." Aqua took a deep breath and stared at the clear skies. Ramiel took out a picnic basket that had some sandwiches, fried chicken, and other kinds of picnic food.
"You too Esdeath, it's not good to be so high strung all the time. It might not wear you down because you're built different, but times have changed. You have no duty, no position, no obligations. This is the kind of life that I strive to live, nice and relaxing." He smiled at her and she thought about it.
Warm winds blowing, the vibrant green forest surrounding them. And most importantly, being beside him as he leaned in on a tree, just admiring the scenery. "This... Does feel nice." Esdeath felt something worth living for besides mindless conflict and bloodshed.
After some time, Rapunzel started crying and mumbling that her mother would die of a heart attack when she learn of what she just did. "Hey, hey, wanna learn something cool? She isn't your mother you know?" Ramiel shattered her world.
"W-what!? What do you mean? Are you for real?" Rapunzel thought he was joking, but he just looked at her. "Yes, you already know it deep inside right? She only wants the power of your hair. She's using it to be immortal." He didn't mince words and Rapunzel started having an existential crisis.
"You could've at least eased her into it you know?" Aqua rolled her eyes and went up to Rapunzel, stroking her back to calm her down, because she was having a panic attack.
"What? She needs to learn the truth, and what do you know? The truth isn't pleasant." He shrugged and Aqua thought that was true.
"Then who are my parents?" Rapunzel frowned and she thought that her life was a lie. "Funny that you ask that question, because it's related to the lanterns that get released in your birthday, they do that in commemoration of your disappearance that faithful day. So you could hopefully find your way back home." Ramiel thought it was stupid.
The tower isn't even that far, doing a perimeter search with the whole kingdom searching would have found them quickly. It was so piss easy that it wasn't even funny. A blonde child with green eyes in a tower locked up is an instant jackpot.
Rapunzel pieced the puzzles and gasped. "Am I someone special in the kingdom?" She thought that it was too grand for a nobody. "Correct, not just specific. You're the lost princess of the kingdom." Ramiel nodded at her deductions.
"Then what should I do?" Rapunzel unfortunately did not have a single idea on what was the next course of action. "Easy, we go to the kingdom and make your hair all sparkly. The question is, do you want to meet your parents?" Ramiel raised a brow and she went into deep thought.
"I've already gone out of the tower... What's more to meet my actual parents right? That's my right." Rapunzel put on a serious face and he nodded at her decision. "Then we've got to take care of that janky ass hair." He raised his hand and braided her hair to shorten it.
"Isn't that really heavy? Are you sure you don't want to cut it or anything?" Aqua was worried about the approximately 50 pounds of hair that she had on her head. "It's fine, I'm used to it. And I've taken care of it for years you know, it has sentimental value."
"Well, if you did take care of those locks for 18 years. I wouldn't want to cut it too, though it's quite inconvenient." Esdeath understood where she came from and it was a perfect head of hair too, no split ends, no frizz, no flaws besides being long.
"Okay, then let's travel to the kingdom." Ramiel shrugged and everyone began walking to the direction of the kingdom. Sightseeing the sceneries while they traveled for Rapunzel's entertainment and sake.
For a girl that has been locked up in her tower for years, she was pretty strong. So they made their way to the kingdom without much trouble. "Are we there yet?" Though she is quite impatient. "How many times do we have to tell you, no." Ramiel sighed and thought that teenage girls had too much energy.
"Then let's go faster!" Rapunzel wanted to go fast so he indulged her. "Don't bite your tongue." He carried her and he started running through the obstacles on their way at supersonic speeds. And in a few minutes, they arrived at Corona.
Rapunzel was frozen and he thought that was a bit too fast. "That was awesome! Let's do it again, please!?" Her eyes shone. "Well, what's in it for me?" He raised a brow and she went silent for a moment.
"Well, you can carry a beautiful girl. Isn't that enough?" She gave a cheeky smile and thought that would work. "Pft, she thinks I'll do it because she's beautiful." He laughed and looked at Esdeath and Aqua.
"Hey! You're being mean to me right now." Rapunzel pouted and Ramiel wiped a tear from his eye. "No offense Rapunzel, but beautiful women? They're dime a dozen, I can get them anywhere. And my sister is much more beautiful than you." He huffed and showed her a picture of Alexandra.
Rapunzel then squinted her eyes and got suspicious. "Isn't this weird? Do you have a sister complex?" Aqua got curious and Esdeath explained. "His sister is one of his lovers." She shrugged and the two were shocked.
"What? Don't look at me like that, your parents are probably related too. Royalty doesn't have a diverse bloodline you know?" Ramiel huffed, but they didn't hear him, still in shock. "Wait a minute, one of his lovers?" Aqua held Esdeath's shoulders tightly and looked like she was anxious.
"Yes, there are a lot of them. It's only natural for a person of his stature. Strong people must reproduce." Esdeath nodded sagely and Ramiel gave her a thumbs up. They shut up after that and just ignored it for now.
"Wow, this place looks amazing." Aqua's voice trembled and they entered the capital city with invisibility. There was of course a festival going on due to the yearly event and people were dancing around.
Rapunzel pulled Ramiel to the crowd and she started dancing to the tune on the plaza. "Come on, let's dance!" She smiled at him and he thought that it was fine. Aqua and Esdeath then squinted their eyes and they joined in.
It was a group dance where you exchanged partners often, but Esdeath and Aqua had an aura on them that was unapproachable so people didn't interact with them. While Ramiel was really popular with the women.
"Tch, that should be me!" Esdeath gritted her teeth and wanted to dance with him for some physical contact. He noticed that they were getting heated so he put them in his arms and started dancing by juggling the three of them all at once.
The crowd clapped and everyone was about to mob them, so Ramiel immediately made an exit. "That was fun, let's do it again yeah?" Rapunzel bobbed her head left and right while they roamed the shopping district.
Aqua was still sulking because he was a philanderer, but Esdeath was satisfied and she had a refreshing smile on her face. While they just enjoyed the festival and Ramiel payed with gold nuggets, they suddenly heard a squeaky voice.
"Aqua! Is that you? Is that really you?" They looked at the person, or in this case. An anthropomorphic mouse. "A rat?" Esdeath raised a brow and Ramiel nodded. "Yes, it is a huge black rat."
A silver haired boy was also with him and they walked up to them. "Mickey... What are you doing here?" She didn't hate him per se, but she didn't like Mickey and the others now because she thought they abandoned her. Ten years passed in the realm of light, and help didn't arrive at all.
"We were looking for you, we tried in the realm of darkness. But it seems that you got out of there. Thank you very much for helping her." Mickey bowed at Ramiel. "It's no problem Michael Mouse. Though I think you need to settle something with Aqua here."
Aqua looked like she was constipated, and coupled with her bad mood. She wants nothing to do with Mickey right now. "That's right, how about we talk for a bit? Mickey." Aqua squinted her eyes. They went to the outskirts of the city and the tension was palpable.
"Are they going to have a fight?" Rapunzel asked and he shrugged. "Don't worry, they won't really injure each other, that much." He smirked and Aqua took out her keyblade. "10 years Mickey, ten years passed in the realm of darkness. It seems that you took your sweet time."
Mickey flinched and Riku frowned. He got corrupted by darkness pretty much instantly. And Aqua was in there for that amount of time. He thought it would be weird if she didn't have any resentment.
"I... I'm sorry Aqua." Mickey didn't make any excuses, Ramiel and Esdeath nodded at him. But admitting it wasn't quite enough. Aqua got seeped in darkness, but she controlled it. Making Mickey and Riku gasp at what was happening.
"Darkness... Aqua, you shouldn't do this." Mickey tried to talk her out of it. "You don't understand Mickey, it's already a part of me." She teleported into a corridor of darkness and appeared behind him. About to hit him with her keyblade.
Riku noticed the fluctuations because he is a user of darkness too. He blocked the attack, but Aqua's superior keyblade from her master Eraqus snapped his keyblade in two and he flew away.
"Riku!" Mickey got into a deadlock with Aqua, but she was much stronger than him. She sent him flying away to Riku as well and squinted her eyes. "But it's fine, look how much stronger I am now Mickey. And I've found someone that would truly make me grow."
Mickey activated an SOS immediately, informing Chip and Dale that they were in trouble. "Mickey, this is bad. My keyblade is toast, and she hasn't even used any magic." Riku frowned with him and they were in a dire situation.
"What were you so preoccupied with Mickey? Ventus, Terra, and I went missing for years. Yet you didn't even found any of us. And there were numerous realms that still fell to darkness. You didn't do your job as a keyblade master." Aqua dismantled him and Mickey felt bad.
Riku and Mickey nodded at each other and they went at her at the same time. Riku used dark firagas to distract her. But Aqua quickly used her own and cancelled his. Mickey that was about to hit her got parried and he was grasped on the neck.
"And you two are keyblade masters? No wonder realms are falling to darkness." She snorted and put Mickey into a prison of darkness. Encasing him in a sphere where only his head was visible.
"Damn it, how is she so strong?" Riku bit his lip and he thought of freeing Mickey. But Aqua circled around him with clones of herself and smirked. "Free him if you can." All the clones pointed their keyblades at him and was about to blast him to oblivion.
"Crap!" Riku looked for an opening to escape, but he was surrounded. "Oh? It seems your boyfriend is here." Ramiel noticed a fluctuation in space and a corridor of light opened up. Riku seemed to explode, but when the dust settled. He got protected by Donald, Goofy, and Sora.
"Riku, we're right here." Sora smiled at him. "Great, your boyfriend is here Riku." Ramiel commented on the side, he was eating a corndog with Rapunzel and Esdeath while watching the drama unfold.
"Gawrsh, what happened to you Aqua?" Goofy was shocked and Aqua just snorted. "That's none of your concern. As far as I know, you two didn't even try to find me as well." She cracked her neck and prepared to fight.
"Don't worry Riku, I'm right here with you. We'll put some sense in her." Sora did a guts pose and Riku nodded with a smile. They floated in the air and light started to intertwine their hearts. A keyblade appeared behind them and Ramiel clapped.
"Ohhh! Is this the fabled gayblade? Well, we can't have a five on one. That isn't quite fair, she has friends too you know?" Ramiel realized his keyblade and threw it at Aqua. Its power might be incomplete, but it's the strongest keyblade in existence besides the chi-blade. (pic)
"It seems that you are in a pinch Aqua, let me help you this once." Esdeath stood up after eating her corndog and started walking slowly to them, letting out a bloodthirsty aura. Excited to see how the warriors of this world hold up.
"Our friendship and love will definitely beat you!" Sora shouted out and a sword beam of light appeared on the gayblade. They swung the keyblade at them and Aqua scoffed. "Your bonds are weak, let me show you."
Ramiel's keyblade erupted with darkness and the primordial darkness of kingdom hearts sprouted tendrils. Attaching to their excalibur knockoff and quickly smothered the light. "N-no way..." Sora frowned.
"Sora, Riku! Don't give up!" Donald hyped them up and they managed to free Mickey from his bindings. "A talking duck and a talking dog, quite interesting." Esdeath whispered behind them and she kicked Goofy away, having a shield and a vanguard out of the way would be annoying after all.
Esdeath then grasped Donald's neck and he quacked as she lifted him up the ground. "How can you talk when your throats are so thin? Makes me want to dissect it and see it from the inside." She grinned. "Donald! Goofy!" Sora immediately ran up to her and tried hitting her with his kingdom key.
Forgetting about Aqua that kicked him away. "I have no problems with you Sora, Riku. Terra even gave the latter power to wield a keyblade. But don't force my hand." She looked at them coldly.
They were about to clash once again, but somebody interrupted them. "Wait! No more fighting! It's my birthday today! Come on, for me?" Rapunzel couldn't hold it in and she went between the two groups.
"Hmm, it's a shame. But I guess I can grant you that wish." Esdeath let go of Donald and he dropped on the ground, crawling back to his team immediately. Scared that he'll get force fed for some foie gras.
"Rapunzel... Fine, I guess I beat them enough. I forgive Mickey, but I never forget." Aqua sighed and tossed Ramiel's keyblade back to him. "It seems that your love and friendship were too weak Sora, why don't you copy Riku and accept the darkness? He turned out fine." Ramiel tried to trick him.
"No! Sora is fine the way it is. He wouldn't be Sora if he fell to darkness." Riku rejected the notion immediately and Ramiel thought he loved him too much. "Well, I was just trying to make him stronger, but you do you."
Rapunzel sighed in relief and she healed them up with her hair. Wrapping them around it and singing a song. And while they were bound, Ramiel plunged his hand inside of Sora's chest. Taking the heart of Ventus. Roxas and Xion weren't his problem.
"I've got Ventus' heart Aqua. After this, we can go back to castle oblivion and wake him up." Ramiel had a crystallized heart on his hand and thought of an idea. "Come on Aqua, Esdeath, we need to meet up with Rapunzel's parents." Ramiel called to them and they went to his side.
"Aqua! We'll always be here for you!" Mickey shouted out and she stopped for a moment. "Words mean nothing Mickey, you already proved that a long time ago." Aqua didn't look back and they went back to the city.
"What are we gonna do, gawrsh. This is a mess." Goofy was depressed with everyone, especially because Aqua is a guardian of light that has accepted the darkness. Proficient with it even. "This is my fault everyone." Mickey looked down on the ground with a frown.
"It's not your fault Mickey, she'll come along. Believe it, the connection of our hearts will never fade." Sora comforted them and Riku gave a wry smile. "That's Sora for you."
"But what are we gonna do about the 7th guardian of light? We're missing one against our battle with organization XIII!" Donald raised a point and they froze. "Well, there's still you two?" Sora scratched his head.
"Hey! What do you mean by that!? I'll have you know, I can take care of Xehanort by myself!" Donald huffed, Sora and Riku didn't believe him.
"Well done Aqua, you were calm and collected. You're making great strides in controlling your darkness." Ramiel patted her head and she got in a better mood immediately. "Really? Then it was a good thing to meet them and practice." She smiled and Rapunzel whispered to Esdeath.
"I thought she was upset that he has tons of girls around him? She's pretty easy, isn't she?" Rapunzel thought that Aqua is such an easy target. "That's how hearts work I guess. And you can't fool me blondie. You were upset as well when you learned of that fact." Esdeath raised a brow and she laughed nervously.
"Oh look at that, it's such a pretty hair ornament. Can you buy it for me Ramiel!? Please?" She ran to him and pulled him in to buy something. They then waited for the lantern festival and enjoyed the festivities for now.
