Ienzo woke up early, as he did every morning but instead of coming out of a beautiful castle into the landscape of Radiant Gardens he left a dingy cave on some dark world where even the sun’s light barely touched it. He sat up in the small bed that was in his gummyship, almost hitting his head on the ceiling, as he did every morning he woke up in the nightmare he was now living.

It wasn’t that he wasn’t grateful to Even for warning him about what was likely going to happen, he just hated being so isolated from everything. The empty world he found himself on barely had anything that could be studied with any real depth and this made the isolation even worse. Not to mention being so far away from those he cared about, not knowing what was happening.

He got up and turned on the gummyship computer and started his daily journal, sitting down in front of the computer and turning on a small camera.

“Day 110. I am still stuck on this world without really knowing what is happening in the worlds around me. I can sense his power growing stronger with every moment, I can smell it. But if I am honest…” he paused for a moment, sighing softly to himself.

“In a way I can hear it call to me. I don’t know if it is him calling me or the nothingness itself, either way it is becoming hard to ignore.” He tapped his fingers on the desk gently in a rhythmic pattern as he thought about what to say next.

“Despite everything that happened with Xehanort and Xemnas I cannot deny that it wasn’t all bad. While we did lose our hearts we did gain a lot of knowledge that would have been impossible to obtain otherwise. Despite all the manipulation and the events that occurred in the organization it was still what I considered to be my home…” he cut off and looked down at his gummyphone at his background picture of his fellow apprentices, including Xehanort and Ansem the Wise standing in front of the castle at Radiant Gardens.

“I hope to see you soon my friends…” Ienzo couldn’t finish his sentence before he started to choke up and tears swelled in his eyes. However, he didn’t have time to cry before something completely unexpected happened.

Oh, he’d known that some of the Organization’s former number would return to their human forms.  Just like himself, and Isa.   The Scholars, as well.  Those who once were Somebodies, now freed by the Keyblade’s power, would be completed once more, accomplishing what had been the old order’s false goal.

The figure he saw before him now, however...  The way he carried himself, that silver hair.  He shouldn’t be here.  Not after everything that happened.  That... man...  He had no vessel to return to...  For a moment, Lea thought he must be mistaken.  

                He should have disappeared.

Fingers balled into fists, the former Assassin’s nerves on edge.

    “... You.”  A snarl cut across his face as the words were hurled across the space between them.  “How are you still here?”
