Sora wasn't a morning person, at all. Even less so that Riku was. So the fact that he was actually able to drag himself out of bed to follow Riku to the meeting spot was sort of a miracle.

Something about the false islands still didn't sit well with Sora. He couldn't quite put his finger on it, but he knew it was a bit more than just the fact that they were fake.

"Hey, Aerith!" Sora said when he saw her walk up, "You're coming too?" He hadn't expected her to come, but it was always nice to see his friends again. And unlike some of the others he had run into, Aerith still remembered him.
