KINGDOM HEARTS III, THE FINAL PART (PART THREE)
The Guardians finally confront Terra and attempt to reach his heart and any light that remains. But, Terra isn’t budging. He has reached the peak of his goal, and nothing will stop him. Not even when Ven and Aqua produce their lucky charms, and Ven reminds him that he kept his promise to be there should he need him. Terra shows a brief sign of being moved, but claims their lives, and the lives of everyone in this era are irrelevant. All that matters is restoring balance through Kingdom Hearts.
Yen Sid whips up some powerful magic, imprisoning Terra and relieves him of the χ-Blade, telling Terra the Keyblade War’s climax will be prevented, revealing he was around where the first war ended and witnessed the destruction. He even uses his magic to give everyone a glimpse of the tragic consequences of the Keyblade War. Even Terra looks horrified, and for the first time, begins to doubt his own motives. Darkness swallowed the universe once before, and only light could save it. Billions of people suffered and died. While Terra’s intentions are well-meaning, but they are wrong.
Terra instead fuses himself with the χ-Blade, releasing a powerful burst of energy that takes everyone out. With that, Terra casts a pillar of darkness into the sky, and calls forth Kingdom Hearts! He commands Kingdom Hearts to open portals to every world, that will allow the Heartless to devour each one til only darkness remains. Millions of Heartless appear, swarming our heroes and begin flying through the portals. Sora, Riku, Donald, and Goofy escape the mayhem, but witness Kairi getting devoured by the Heartless.
Sora loses it and despairs, whilst an enraged Riku, Donald, and Goofy attack Terra. We stay oon Sora as his friends are defeated by Terra. Roxas, Mickey, and Axel leap in to fight Terra, but they too fall to the Heartless. Terra fires an energy blast in Sora’s direction, but Riku leaps in the way and is mortally wounded. He tells Sora he knows his heart won’t give in to despair, and like always, will somehow make wonders happen, and they’ll get Kairi back. Riku falls unconscious, Donald tending to his wounds with magic.
Picked up by his friends, Sora rises, and he, Donald, and Goofy face off against Terra in the game’s final boss. Terra utilises all kinds of crazy powers, uses his Heartless Guardian, can use Xemnas’ powers, dark powers, and most importantly, the power of Kingdom Hearts itself. This would be the hardest boss battle in the game.
After the boss fight, Terra collapses and has a brief moment of exposure. Donald casts a spell and Namine drops out of the sky. Sora charges Terra, stabbing his heart with the Kingdom Key. Namine lands on Terra’s back, and together, they extract the χ-Blade from his heart, whilst exposing his mind to long suppressed memories of happier days with Ven and Aqua. Terra collapses, only to be embraced by a crying Ven, begging him to stop. Terra finally has a moment of realisation, experiencing flashes of the harm he has caused. For the first time, Terra expresses sorrow at his own actions.
Just then, the χ-Blade ruptures, damaged and its power about to implode. Before it goes kaboom, Sora uses it to call upon Kingdom Hearts’ light to wipe out the Heartless and close the portals. Sora takes the strain of the χ-Blade’s energy, Donald and Goofy helping. Sora commands Kingdom Hearts to absorb the χ-Blade itself, which is sucked up into a beam of light, releasing a blinding light from Kingdom Hearts. Everyone is consumed by the light.
Sora awakens in an endless limbo-like realm (The Last World) where the sky meets the sea and there’s no differentiation between the two. Sora finds Gula’s leopard mask, inspecting it with familiarity. Kairi appears, holding Ava’s vixen mask. As you might have guessed, Sora and Kairi are the reincarnations of Gula and Ava.
The two embrace and cry, happy to be together, but Kairi reveals her heart has left the Realm of Light and she appears to be stuck in limbo. Sora promises to free her, even attempting to summon his Keyblade to pull her out with him. She is unable to leave, but he can. Sora even suggests their hearts merge again, but Kairi says that is impossible in this world, implied to be the afterlife. Sora confesses his love to Kairi again, refusing to leave her, and stay with her if necessary, but Kairi tells him that he has to live his life. This argument goes back and forth, Sora hugging Kairi, not letting her go, cursing the universe for its sadistic sense of humour and need to keep them apart.
Kairi gives Sora a pep talk, encouraging him to do what he does best – follow his heart, and knowing him, he’ll find some way to bring their hearts back together. Sora gets an idea to use his Power of Waking and takes a little inspiration from Terra. He summons his Keyblade, but before Kairi can stop him, Sora impales him with it, and we cut to white.
Kairi awaken on Destiny Islands, and is greeted by her friends, including a healed Riku. When asked about Sora, Kairi reveals he used his Power of Waking to fuse with his Keyblade, and restored Kairi’s heart and body at the cost of his own. Riku assumes Sora might be dead, but Kairi shakes her head, saying Sora is alive but lost, their hearts bound. Everyone is relieved, hopeful to find him.
Terra is shown to be sitting on the shore, freed of his darkness, his eyes and hair back to normal. Aqua and Ven join him, and he can only apologise for his misguidance, seeing that darkness can be dangerous when misused. The trio make up with many tears and apologies, Terra realising he never let go of his friends, producing his own lucky charm, and trio holding them aloft to the setting sun. They all made mistakes, Aqua concluding that light and darkness are as black-and-white as she thought, and the heart is a fickle thing.
While Aqua and Ven start debating how to restore their home, Terra gives them a sad smile, admitting they’ll have to do it without him. He reveals the damage done by the removal of the χ-Blade and his own addiction to darkness has caused his heart to become weak. He jokes that Master Eraqus will give him a lecture, and bids farewell to Aqua and Ven, turning into light and fades away. Aqua and Ven watch on, a little angered that Terra found peace after all he has done, but decide they must crack on without him.
Riku, Kairi, Donald, Goofy, and Mickey watch the sunset, glad the battle is over, though some questions still need to be asked and things to be resolved. They all agree to work together to find Sora and bring him home.
In a montage, as “Don’t Think Twice”, we see characters from across the franchise. Goofy and Pete train together in a nod to Goof Troop; Donald, Daisy, and his nephews visit Uncle Scrooge’s bistro; Mickey spends time with Minnie and Pluto; Vexen and Zexion further study the Replica Program together; we glimpse Demyx, who has met Stitch, and they play their instruments together; Roxas, Axel, Namine, Hayner, Pence, and Olette have ice cream together; Aqua and Ven make markers for Terra and Eraqus; Yen Sid sits in his tower, reading through his copy of the Book of Prophecies; and Riku and Kairi watching the sunset together, Kairi holding Sora’s lucky charm in her hands.
THE EPILOGUE AND SECRET ENDING
There would be two endings – the post-credits epilogue, and a secret ending. The epilogue would have Kairi wake up in the Final World (which could be seen as Kingdom Hearts itself, since all hearts begin and end there). She meets Skuld, who she recognises as none other than her grandmother as a girl. Yes, Skuld is Kairi’s grandmother. Skuld tells Kairi that Sora has left, disappearing into another world, perhaps even another reality. Though Kairi wants to follow, Skuld explains it won’t be easy, but suggests a good place to start looking for a way is in Traverse Town. Chirithy appears, and claims there is a potential tool that could help: Luxu’s mysterious black box.
Cut to the Keyblade Graveyard, where we see the hooded Luxu using familiar gravity powers to dig up the black box. Luxu removes his hood, revealing he is Xigbar. He tells the Master of Masters that he completed his mission, producing the Gazing Eye Keyblade, and decides now that his task is done, he wants to take a peak inside the box, but needs to figure out how to unlock it.
The secret ending is basically the same as the canon game’s ending. Sora awakens in Shibuya, Tokyo from The World Ends With You. He spots the Master of Masters walking around and tries to follow him, but he disappears. Sora approaches Shibuya train station, and sees a silver-haired man standing atop it. He calls out to the man, assuming he is Riku. The man leaps down, but he is actually Yozora, the characters from Verde Rex, the fictional, in-universe video game in Toy Box. He resembles Riku, but sports Sora’s eyes. He asks Sora who he is, and summons a Keyblade, which is a lot more hi-tech and cyberpunk compared to the Kingdom Key. Sora draws his own and prepares himself as Yozora runs at him.
FIN!
What if you had these Worlds for Kingdom Heart IV? (Treasure Planet, Moana, Zootopia, Atlantis: The Lost Empire, Princess and the Frog, Brave, Coco, Agrabah (King of Thieves), Arendelle (with Either a Sequel Storyline or an Original Plot), Toy Box (With the Rest of the Toys in the Real Toy Box) and Incredibles)
Wasn't this implied to be Kairi to explain why Axel took such a liking to her?Axel sits alone atop the clock tower in Twilight Town, eating ice cream. To his surprise, Saix shows up and chats with him. There isn’t any chat about a girl we’ve never met before being a lost puppy for them.
Wasn't this implied to be Kairi to explain why Axel took such a liking to her?
See I took it as them talking about Kairi but it had to have been something like 2 AM when I got to that scene so it might have been my mind making a connection that wasn't there.No, Saix and Axel, in the canon game, apparently knew a girl who was one of Xehanort's test subjects. They longed to free her, but she disappeared. It is implied she is Skuld, one of the Dandelion Keyblade wielders who survived the Keyblade War.
It could also be Ava as well since she didn't show up in the post credit ending.
Is it set after Union X, and before Dark Road?Hey, I'm working on Kingdom Hearts Legends X Darkness, an MMO adaptation of the Kingdom Hearts franchise.
