( Locked from Hades, Icy, Ciel & Sebastian; Leon doesn't trust any of 'em. 8| )

We can't wait anymore.

[The look on Leon's face is grave and it looks like he's got a slip of paper in his other hand. The seal of the King is on it and there's an equally grave message within; each of the keyblade bearers -- Kairi, Ventus, Aqua, and Terra -- should have gotten one, as well.]

Each time something happens, it's gotten worse. We were still reeling from the attack on Disney Castle, and now this mist has chipped away at our stability. Our enemy is ruthless. We can't wait to regain our footing. The time to act is now.

[He holds up the letter, showing it to the network.]

I received a letter from the King. There's something out there, an entity unlike anything we've ever fought before. A terrible and great darkness... The King says he's not sure if even the keyblades can stand up against it. But he does know that it's fueling Maleficent with her power. That's why she's been able to cast spells that affect every world in our kingdom here.

If this... thing is just continuing to give Maleficent her power, we don't have any time to lose. We need to organize an attack while we have a chance. I'm going to need the keyblade bearers to help lead this. The World That Never Was is massive and filled with Heartless and who knows what other creatures. We can't just charge in as one big group. We need a plan.

I need to know who wants to help and what you can do so I can prepare. In three days, we'll hold a meeting in Radiant Garden at the town square. We'll make a plan then.

[Poor guy. Leon sympathizes and he doesn't question Ven's ability to kick some tail, but it doesn't stop him from being a little worried.]

Glad to hear it. [His brows furrow.] You gonna be okay?

[It wasn't nearly the worst he'd ever been through... though it's kind of sad he really can shrug it off with that comment. Keyblades turn your life into a rollercoaster of hell.]

I'm gonna have to be, right? We need everyone to help with this thing. [Tired and worn down or not, he's determined. And he's not going to stop just because he doesn't "feel good."]

Yeah... We all gotta pull ourselves together.

[There's never any rest for the good guys, is there?]

For what it's worth, I and everyone else appreciate it, Ven. You guys... have to sacrifice a lot.

[Not in this universe. Sorry, Leon - Xehanort blindsided them.]

[And he just shrugs at that - on one hand, it's kind of true, on the other, it's true for everyone. And at least he and his family have their home back at last, most other people aren't so lucky.] So did you, and everyone else who's here. They deserve to be home, with their family and friends. We've got to get them there. It's not fair that they don't have any other options but to stay on worlds they're not familiar with and Heartless everywhere.

[He intends to find some way to fix this. He just doesn't know how; everything's so big.]
