Back with Sora and company, Zero, Kim, and Fiona rejoined them with another familiar face.
Roger Smith: Well, well, if it isn't Sora. (pause, then frowns) Wait a moment, I don't remember you. I do know your name, maybe because you look like a Sora.
Zero: It's okay. We didn't remember them either, but we know their names.
Roger: Huh. Doesn't that beat us.
Kim: So your friends aren't here?
Sora: Afraid not. Maybe I can find them somewhere in the castle.
Roger: Castle? What castle?
Zero: It's all right, Roger. A reality we can't see that's bigger than just this world...shame we can't help more.
Sam: No problem. We will find them.
Zero: You should be okay from here on in. Whatever shape reality takes, I know you can handle it.
Kim: Good luck.
Roger: Take care. Even though I just first you all, I know you will go well.
The gang leave but only Fiona remains behind, much to Sora's, who stay behind while his friends head out, notice.
Sora: Fiona? What's wrong?
Fiona: I don't know the answers but there's something you should know. Your memories made this town, correct?
Sora: Yeah.
Fiona: If that's the case, it's nothing more than a fighment of your mind...as are we.
Sora: (shocked) Wait. But you can't be a figment! You're standing here as well as the town!
Fiona: But I am not really me. I don't remember the things I should and I sense things I shouldn't. (places a hand on Sora's shoulder) But listen carefully. Be wary of your memories. You wiill face more illusions like this one in your journely. Sometimes the shadows of your memory can decieve you, maybe lead you astray.
Sora: (confused) I don't get it.
Fiona: I'm just another illusion, after all. The truth is out of my reach as well.
Sora: Please don't say that...
Fiona: You cannot let illusions distract you from what is really important to you.
Sora: Now you're making things complicated!
Fiona: (smiles) Just believe what you feel in your heart.
Sora: (sighs) Well, I guess.
Gaz's voice: Hey Sora!
Sora turns as the others came back to him.
Danny: You coming or what?
Sora: Right, hold on. Hey, Fiona, I...
Sora turns and, to his surprise, Fiona is no longer around.
Sora: Huh? Fiona? Where is she?
Max: She left, brainiac!
Sora: But how? She was there a second ago.
Tommy: She left with Zero, Kim, and Roger, remember?
Sora: (confused) What?!
Gaz: (groaning) Great. You are talking to yourself, figures.
As the heroes goes on, Sora pauses as he thought about what he saw and heard.
Sora: (to himself) So that's what she meant...
The group finds themselves in the castle as the door opened allowing thje group to come out. They soon stopped as they see a familiar cloaked figure in front of them.
Cloaked figure: (amused) So, Sora. How was it? Did you like meeting your memories?
Sora: Well, I admit, it was great to see everyone again, minus the Mean Team.
Cloaked figure: Yes, that is odd, because they aren't part of your memories at all. They are real.
Sora: (confused) What?
Danny: Wait, the Mean Team were real?
Cloaked figure: They got into the castle somehow. They may try to stop you all from finding what you're looking for. Be wary of them if I were you.
Gaz: Well, you aren't us, hood boy! And what do you want from Sora anyway?
Cloaked figure: That depends.
The figure walks towards the group as they get their weapons out, ready for a possible fight. Suddenly, someone (the man from before with his hood up) appear behind the cloaked figure.
Man: Hey!
Cloaked figure: (annoyed) What do you want?
Man: Come on, you are hogging the hero. Let me have a turn!
The cloaked figure paused then took out a set of cards before tossing them to the man who grabbed them while smirking.
Cloaked figure: If you wish to test him, very well. Test his heart.
The cloaked figure soon disappeared. The man smirks as he removes his hood revealing himself. He has red spiky hair with blue eyes.
Man: Well, well, since it's my show now, time for the introductions. Look alive, you six. The name's Axel. (points to his head) got it memorized?
Sora: I think so.
Axel: Good. You learn quick. Well, Sora, now that we're on a first name basis...
Axel then rose his hands causing some sort of earthquake to happen. The man then placed his hands out making two chakrams to appear in them. He smirks evilly as the group prepared themselves.
