Lea shook his head.

"Having a heart or not didn't change who we were that much. At least I don't think it did. Besides we were starting to gain new hearts. Especially Roxas. Or maybe Sora was influencing him more than any of us realized." said Lea.

He wasn't sure as he wasn't a scholar. He hadn't studied the heart like Yen Sid or Xenahort had done.

"Wait. So Roxas is out there somewhere? I thought he was still inside Sora." said Lea.

This was news to him. His best friend was out there and he wanted to be there for him. But he'd give him his space. Being absorbed into someone and then being separated had to take some time to adjust.

"It's funny I didn't have a heart when I worked in the organization. I only stayed loyal to Saix because we used to be friends. But then I met Roxas and Sora. And was around them I felt like I had a heart. I remembered what it felt like and I don't know if my memories were playing tricks on me. Or if it's just the two of them. I want to be friends with Sora but I was afraid he'd remind me too much of Roxas. Or the guy wouldn't like me. I mean I didn't get along with everyone in the Organization. Well I was Demyx and Zexion but they were more acquaintces I guess. Roxas was my only real friend there." said Roxas.

He sighed.

"I guess it couldn't hurt to start fresh with some new members. Less baggage. And try to hang out with Sora later." said Lea.

He paused and looked up at Riku.

"I do want your help on this training thing though. You are a Keyblade Master and I think I'd get better training from you. No offense to Master Yen Sid but there's only so far he can teach me. Because you were the first to use darkness with the keyblade and come back from it. I don't want to get lost in the darkness. I hope you could not just be my teacher but my guide." said Lea.

Lea nodded and then frowned.

"Trust isn't an easy thing with me. Isa and I drifted apart in the Organization. He was my first real friend and now he's working with Xenahort. And Roxas might as well be dead. I'm glad Sora's ok but every time I see him I'm just reminded of what I lost. My two best friends are gone and I've never felt so alone before." said Lea.

He sighed sitting down in a chair.

"As a Nobody it was a lot easier. But now I have my heart and alll those emotions are back." said Lea.

He glanced up at Riku.

"I suppose I could try. Do you have any pointers?" asked Lea.

Riku

Lea chuckled.

"I guess you could say that." said Lea.

He kept eating his ice cream soon finishing his as well. It was better than he thought.

"This was quite good. I think I may have found a new favorite ice cream place." said Lea.

He grinned at Argus's words.

"Thanks. I'm glad to hear that." said Lea.

He chuckled again as Argus spoke again.

"Fair point." said Aksel.

He shook his head.

"No. I didn't. Although our superior Xenahort is a former Keyblade Wielder. He couldn't wield one after becoming a Nobody but Roxas could. He was kind of a special nobody. He was Sora's Nobody. When Sora was turned into a Heartless he was brought back to his human form by one of the princesses of heart. I guess he was basically a walking heart." said Lea.

He sighed.

"Roxas was my best friend in the Organization. And he could wield a keyblade. He eventually left and joined with Sora. Sora had lost his memories and some had transferred to Roxas. The only way Sora could wake up was Roxas had to disappear. I'm glad Sora's okay but I feel like I lost my best friend anyway." said Lea.

Lea chuckled hearing Riku's sarcasm.

"I didn't know you had a twin brother." said Lea.

He nodded walking over to Riku.

"I need your help Riku. Will you become my teacher? My mentor. My master. Whatever you want to call it. You've channeled both light and darkness in a way no one has seen before. I could use darkness as a nobody but now I fear it could hurt me if I'm not careful. I want to channel it so it doesn't consume me. I don't want to risk losing my heart again now that I have it back. Will you help me?" said Lea.

He paused looking at him with a grin.

"I haven't tried using my powers since we rescued Sora from the Xenahort club. But I know just light alone may not be enough. You've shown everyone that you don't have to fear the darkness but can use it alongside the light. I want to do that too. Use light and darkness together." said Lea.

Riku

Lea paused seeing someone order scoops of ice cream and he chuckled. He certainly liked ice cream. And in that moment his smile fell as he remembered Roxas. Maybe this wasn't such a good idea. At the mention of birthday cake he shook his head.

"If I wanted a cake I'd visit a bakery. I want to try their ice cream. My favorite's usually sea salt but I doubt they have it here." said Lea.

He paused deciding on what he wanted.

"I'll take some rocky road, vanilla, strawberry, and cookies and cream." said Lea.

He decided to try a few. When the owner offered toppings he decided on the chocolate sauce and sprinkles. It looked like more a decoration than ice cream but he was here to try the food. He paid for it and seeing there weren't many open tables decided to join the stranger at his table.

"Hello. I'm Lea. Got it memorized?" said Lea.

He grinned and started to bit into the ice cream liking them all as they had such unique flavors. And the chocolate sauce and sprinkles helped too.
