[So it does happen on occasion that Sora likes to play Sherlock. This particular evening, inspiration strikes while in the midst of training exercises in the woods (taught to him some time ago by a certain blue haired master). His hair's a little mussed, outfit slightly askew. But here's something new! Sora's sporting some new duds: At the moment, his left arm's covered in what appears to be some well-crafted armor.]

I've been thinking... Back in my world, there used to things called Gates that helped get you from place to place. Thing is, they weren't all that easy to find, and they didn't just open for anybody or for any reason.

Only, if I'm right, I just might know a way to make this work!

[Hence, his next question. It's completely relevant to the previous matter, he promises:]

What's most important to you? What's something you guys just can't go without?

[Tell the sixteen year old about your precious items, Siren's Port. So he can ask to see it. Toss it in the air. Point a weapon at it.]

[It'll turn out just fine.]

[Probably.]

Gates? Are you talking about teleporting between worlds or just the city?

[It's hard not to smile at the child, there's kindness there that reminds her of a certain someone.]

I'd say my most precious possession is an item I have from home. It's all I have left to remind of where I came from after all.

Between worlds. If this works right, it just might be our ticket out!

[He's been in Siren's port for a few months now. There are things that pull at his heart besides the Core. There are things he needs to do back home.]

If that was all I had from home, that'd be really important to me too.

What is it?

I've been home once and recently returned... I'll admit while I was home I did miss this place a little.

Still... I have not been able to open a portal away from this island, I still can't. However, I have many gates as you call them across the city. They help me travel quite quickly around the city.

[She knows that all too well, it was always duty and loyalty to her people that made things difficult. She had said goodbye to some very special friends because of needing to do what is right.]

It's special for other reasons, it's a powerful relic of my people... it's known as Fused Shadow.

[Tilting the her NV up, she lets it float into the air before she lifts up her hand. Square shaped flecks of shadow flicker up from her palm before a large stone helm appears floating in view over her palm. Though it appears to be broken in some sections (the bottom half is completely missing).]

[A slow nod as he listens. He remembers her talking a little bit about their home the first time they talked.] That sounds pretty handy! If I could do that, it would've saved me a lot of trouble in the past.

[But when the Helm appears, Sora is suitably impressed! He hasn't seen anything like it.]

Whoa... It does look powerful. What's it supposed to be for?

They do come in handy. Maybe if you asked nicely I'll let you borrow them sometime?

[She let's the helm spin slowly to give him a full look at it.]

Looks can be deceiving... it's been broken, twice now, and it's power has waned. I keep it for sentimental reasons these days. Once upon a time it was a source of great power for my ancestors. They used it to rival and rebel against the Goddesses.

You'd really let me borrow them?

[A spark of excitement. He's temporarily distracted from the matter at hand. At least until she begins to turn it in front of the camera. It's even more impressive once he gets a look at it from other angles.]

If the Goddesses were anything like the gods from my world, they must've been nothing but trouble.

I've been known to let a hero tag along now and again.

[She chuckles under breath, a snicker really before the latter statement catches her ears. Sora's trusting nature, she wonders if it's ever gotten him into trouble.]

Some would agree, however, the truth is the Goddesses created the world of Light.

My ancestors, The Dark Interlopers as they were known they wanted to control the Sacred Realm and the Triforce, another relic of great power. They created this to do that. However, they were stopped by Spirits of the Light and soon after they were banished to the Twilight Realm. My people and I, we are what's left of those who dared to take their power.

Well that's me then! I'm a hero. A Junior Hero back home, actually. [And here, Raven dubbed him an honorary Superhero!] But that still counts, doesn't it?

[There's a slight pause. more he listens, the more it's almost starting to sound like Midna was part of the bad guys. But she seems so nice. And besides...]

But those were your ancestors. I doesn't seem all that fair that you guys had to stay banished when it wasn't you who tried to do all that stuff.

I suppose I could make an exception for a Junior Hero too.

[She smiles at the pause, sadly life is complicated, and even she had to learn the hard way that appearances could be deceiving.]

They were, but they are still quite the part of my people, they are heroes to some and it's because of those people that my kind must remain away from the light. Sometimes peace is not as steady as people would like, but my kind are strong and they will survive all the same.

[The Fused Shadow flickers out of site before she takes hold of the thick book again.]

Now why don't you tell me what you plan to do with that piece of armor.

Hmmm... Well, the reason I wanted to know was because that's how it worked on my world. These Gates, the ones we used to get around? They only opened when you found special items. These items opened up the Gates for us to go back and forth.

And when I thought back to it, a lot of the items were special to people on that world. They had a lot of memories and meaning, you know what I mean?

[Some hesitation. Because here's where some people would get a little iffy.]

Thing is? I'd kind of need to see it in person for it to work.

I think I understand, what sort of items have you learned open these gates the most? You're looking for just the item to try and use right?

Right! Well... one time, it was ice cream. I know a lot of the kids used to have it all the time. On another world, it was a rose-- a magical one that somebody couldn't go without. Then on another, it was a Santa Suit. It was a gift from a really good friend.

And right! I do wanna use it, but don't worry! I don't think it hurts any of the items to use it as a key for the Gates.

Ice cream?

[It earns a chuckle, that seemed to be the strangest of the items, mostly because she was certain after a while it would melt.]

Still, if you truly believe that such a thing might be possible and it hasn't been done before, I would be willing to let you try. Perhaps my own Fused Shadow might be able to do some good after all this time?

[You're telling Sora. He's not quite sure how that worked out with the ice cream either.

That's great! We'll be outta this place in no time!

You don't mind me stopping by to see it for myself? I'll be really careful with it, I promise!

With any luck.

[Her smile hides the fact that she thinks it won't be that simple, however, Sora's enthusiasm and hope is nothing but contagious.]

I also don't mind at all, it'll give me an excuse to show you those portals when you're done, right?

[Sora nods enthusiastically.] I'll be there in a flash!

[Although, he stops himself for a moment before he can get a little too carried away.]

So... where exactly do you live again?

I've been relocated back to Tower since the explosion, however if you think another location will do I can come and meet you.

(OOC: And now I realize I should pay more attention to the time of day of the post. Is it day or night, I was assuming night give the time of Sora's post, but now I am so unsure.)

[ooc: I'm pretty flexible and we can wing it: afternoon or in the evening. Either is fine. Just depending on what you want Sora to see/ what your preference is?]

(OOC: Night is probably better considering she doesn't exactly look all that great as an Imp when she's not wearing the Fused Shadow. I mean seriously ... just look at that hair.)

Nah! I can meet you there just fine.

I'll see you soon, then?

[Shutting the feed off with a quick goodbye, Midna sets away some of her things before heading down to the first floor of the Tower Apartments and as Sora approaches she offers him a friendly wave.]

Hopefully you didn't run into trouble coming this way, we at least won't have to worry about any of the smaller creatures bothering us, my presence tends to keep them away.

Nah! Nothing I couldn't handle anyhow. But it'll be nice to have a break from the little ones.

[There's a slight pause as he beholds her appearance. He's seen her on the feed of course but... she's a lot prettier in real life.]

[Not to mention tall, but she's used to being quite a few feet taller than most heroes.]

At the very least it will give us some time work uninterrupted.

[As she speaks, she draws out her right hand and in her palm very tiny at first appears the Fused Shadow. She lingers just far enough away from Sora to ensure neither of them are in the way of being harmed as the helm grows larger.]

So how exactly does one go about opening this gate?

[Sora's already short to begin with! He blinks. Then shakes his head to get back on track. The Fused shadow looks impressive in person too.]

It's pretty easy. All you've gotta do is just hold it. Then I do my stuff, and if it works... we've got a ticket out!

[He stops a moment. Riku's warning is still clear in his mind even after all this time. He has to make sure.] But uh... you don't happen to work for SERO, do you?
