[ the image is jiggling all over the place as two moogles are holding a communicator and flying through Traverse Town ]

Where did she run off to? We couldn't have turned our backs for more than five minutes!

Kupo, she said something about being thirsty but she didn't even listen to anything that we told her.

[ they keep going without stopping until they find a red cloak on the ground, then a red boot, then another all leading to a familiar i couldn't find a regular image, sorry ;; looking spot behind the hotel. the moogles stay in place now, showing a girl standing in the water. she's wearing a bodysuit and has short pink hair. feeling a presence and hearing their wings, she turns in the direction of the moogle's with a worried look on her face ]

This one was thirsty... There was no time to listen.

[ the moogles drop the communicator beside her but awaaay from the water, so that they can explain everything to her now that they've found her. feel free to talk to her so that she can figure out what the communicator does or just come visit! ]

Guess who's back? Who missed me?

[The devil boy is back and with a shirt! He's standing outside a building for sale rubbing at his chin and frowning. There's a moogle floating beside him and he's checking the place out, obviously.]

Now that we're all back in our own shoes, it's time for business. What do you think about this as our main head quarters? It's big, it's got three floors, when we start expanding we'll have a lot of space. Hell, we can even build in a holding area somewhere. [He turned to the moogle.] I'll take it, little guy.

[He gave him a signed paper and just stared up at the building. He'd have to put some sign on it for the police force. Maybe just move in here in general. The place needed some touches but he'd get through the details. For now, first things first.]

I know I had asked a while back if anyone was interested in joining, but some personal problems got in the way of any progress being made. So far it's been Commissioner Shirogane and myself doing the work but as of Monday, the people who signed up will officially be on the payroll. Don't know who you are? Let me start-up your memory, here.

We're still hiring! You want to help out your community, we're pretty flexible with hours and where you want to work. Leave me a note here, let's talk business.

You know, while I didn't have anything truly horrible happen to me. [And for some reason nearly losing your head doesn't count towards it.] I have learnt that while Wonderland is a rather fun place to go, the people who live there are pretty mad.

[And he's saying that in the literal sense.]

I mean, the Queen pretty much wants to cut off someone's head for very silly reasons. The Cheshire Cat always smiles for a reason I don't know and the Mad Hatter... well, the truth is in the name.

[Though the last two names are... oddly familiar to say the least, after all they are names of chains, one of which is Break's]

I wouldn't suggest annoying the Queen too much though, she will want your head for a while. [It's also why he knows he cant go back for a good while. That's what happens when you fall on her precious roses.] But overall it's probably the most fun world I've been to during my time here.

[It seems like the young man has finished rambling, until that is he speaks up once more.]

Oh right, someone asked me to solve this riddle, yet I have no idea as to what the answer is. Why is a raven like a writing desk?

[And now he is finished, but not before letting out a slightly chuckle at some type of thought, yep he thought of an answer.]

Heya everybody. I hope you're all doin' alright! That was a real doozy and I'm very sorry Merlin and I couldn't stop Maleficent and her portals sooner. It's becomin' clear to us that we're dealin' with more than just her and heartless, though. She's gettin' help from somewhere, we're sure of it! Even before, she never had the power to do things to this size!

That's why, after talkin' to some folks, it's time for me to be honest with all of ya. I know I haven't been able to tell everybody everything and it's for good reason, but now I got no choice. Many of ya have heard of the keyblade already, but what you may not know is that only a special person can wield one. This is 'cause they're the only weapon that can truly ward back heartless and get rid of 'em forever. I am a keyblade wielder myself. It was important to keep this secret 'cause heartless are drawn to 'em and they are very valuable, important weapons. We couldn't risk 'em or the knowledge of 'em gettin' into the wrong hands, but I have a feelin' it's too late for that.

That's why I'd like to introduce you to the other keyblade wielders, the protectors of this kingdom. Ventus, Aqua, Terra, and Kairi have this ability and from now on, they'll be representin' me and the rest of Star Kingdom. If you need help, you can ask 'em. Things are hectic around here and as much as I'd like ta be everywhere at once to help everybody, I just can't. Leon isn't a keyblade wielder, but he knows a lot about 'em and this place. You can always go ta him, too.

[Mickey pauses to take a deep breath as if he took a huge weight off his shoulders.]

Before Maleficent opened those portals, we were workin' on bringin' another world out of darkness. We had ta put it on hold durin' all this chaos, but we just finished pullin' it out. It's a big temple of sorts full of folks called "jedi", who've agreed to open their temple up to refugees. We set up a gummi ship station in the hangar there and it's ready for ya to visit now.

I think that's everything! If ya need anything, please don't hesitate to ask.

[The video opens to show Kaworu smiling cheerfully in Traverse Town, as if his world hadn't just been engulfed in Darkness not too long ago.]

The heart is fragile, susceptible to the insecurities that come from within and from the influence of others. Such insecurities don't need a label, like "Darkness", for the heart to fall prey to them.

[He looks upward and pensively eyes the night sky.]

I didn't predict this. But I heard the ones who aren't here are only trapped in the Darkness. That means there's still hope. The heart is weak, but it possesses something wonderful: the ability to choose. More of the Lilim will find themselves here, over time, so long as they choose to face the Darkness.

[He glances back down at the screen, briefly shutting his eyes before opening them as he smiles.]

I think that I've been on this particular world long enough. Which worlds should I see next? Is there anyone willing to show me around?
