===Another Side, Another Story [deep dive]===
The video starts with a flash of [[Sora]] standing in the Crossroads looking up at the sky, followed by a black screen with the words ''"Utter Silence"''. The camera zooms backwards out of something that we see as a message in a bottle on the Dark Meridian, with the quotes "''A fragmented tale,''" "''A world without you''," and "''The eyes will close''" appearing on screen. We see a shot of the Dark Meridian. Then, nearby, Roxas arrives via a [[Corridor of Darkness]]. One eye is briefly shown, glowing yellow, and he walks forward. The screen gets fuzzy and blacks out, showing another quote: "''Something so natural''."
[[Sora]] stands in the middle of the Crossroads, looking up at the night sky.  


The screen cuts to the Dark City, while Roxas walks slowly towards the Memory's Skyscraper in the pouring rain. He is surrounded by hundreds of Neoshadows while holding Oathkeeper and Oblivion. The next scenes involve Roxas engaging the [[Heartless]], easily destroying three. The screen blanks as letters and kanji move like a wheel and form ''"The memory beyond''." Roxas engages the horde of Neoshadows, ripping them apart with his Keyblades, using all of his limbs to do so (as shown when he kicks a Neoshadow away from him). At one point, several Neoshadows jump high in the air. Roxas notices this, retreats a bit, and jumps high into the air with them.
'''Utter silence'''


He tears apart the Heartless close to him, and then throws Oathkeeper to destroy four Neoshadows above him. Once the Oathkeeper is back in his hand, he backflips up to the porch of Memory's Skyscraper, landing in a right-handed stance with his left sword out, perhaps thinking or acknowledging that the Heartless horde is endless.
A message in a bottle arrives on the shore of the Dark Meridian, as the wave recedes.


Roxas looks up at the screens of the skyscraper. The screen blanks again, showing the phrase ''"Something so simple''." Roxas sees Riku looking down at him. Roxas is shown to smirk, and in an impressive and impossible demonstration of free-running skills, jumps up to the side of the building, and begins running up the wall. The Heartless already there as well as new ones that rise out of the windows in his wake follow him, as more try to cut him off ahead. The screen blanks and the numeral XIII as well as the quote "''Where's Sora?''" and "''We must find him''" are shown. Roxas hurls Oblivion at Riku, who chooses precisely that moment to leap off the roof. Oblivion easily cuts through the Neoshadows on its way to Riku.
'''A fragmented tale'''
<br>'''A world without you'''
<br>'''The eyes will close'''


The screen blanks as the number 12 "''[Ansem's other report]''" and "''A creation born of ignorance''" is shown. Riku catches Oblivion as three Neoshadows leap down after him. The screen blanks as the number 11 is shown. There is an arrow that points from the last two quotes to "''Behind the Darkness ≠ Door to the Light''." The two Keyblade wielders close in on each other as the numeral X appears, as well as the quotes "''The secret place "His voice... It's left me." "This time... I'll fight."''. These are to the right of the quotes shown behind number 12.
A white [[Heartless]] emblem appears on a boulder for a split second, before Roxas passes through it. One of his eyes - golden yellow - is briefly shown, and he walks forward.  


Also in this scene, if you look closely, you can see Roxas' Oblivion has been replaced, holding the Kingdom Key in his right hand as he passes [[Riku]], who is holding Oblivion (Another intriguing and comical mistake, Riku seems to be facing outward at first, with the Oblivion pointed away from Roxas, and then when they pass is seen to be facing inward, having to move Oblivion as they pass each other, then outward again when they've passed). Roxas is seen either continuing up or trying to turn around on the screen. Scenes from the first video flash, as well as the number 9 and the quotes, "A world between = A forgotten world" and "The gathering" appear to be below #12's quotes. Previous scenes continue flashing as numerals VIII and the quotes "''The third enemy = Nobody "Who is Nobody, you ask? They are the nonexistent ones..." ''" appear (and seem to be below number 9's quotes). Numeral VII and "''What took you so long Kairi?''" and "''Can we do it? Against that?''" appear below and to the right of #8's quotes.
'''Something so natural'''


The Dark Meridian is briefly shown with Roxas walking towards a hooded figure on a rock, the camera getting fuzzy at the end. After several more clips, during which appear Heartless "We have come for you, my liege." "You are the source of all Heartless.", the number 6, ''[The Thirteenth Order]'', ''Metamorphosis, "Sora?" "Sora... why?" "Your Highness! But why?"'', the number 5, "''change" "the third key"'', the number 4, ''End of the World "What is this place?" "Is this the answer you've been looking for?" "This is the world in its true form." "Maybe our journey was meaningless after all."'', the number 3, ''Paradise'', ''"We'll go together."'' , and lastly the numeral II, [[Mickey Mouse|King Mickey]], in an Organization XIII coat, is shown flipping through the air and landing on the rooftop of the Memory's Skyscraper. (In the flashes, we see Riku killing a large number of Heartless with the Oblivion on his way down to the ground.)
In the Dark City, Roxas walks towards the Memory's Skyscraper in the pouring rain. Clashing blades sound, and in an instant, he is surrounded by numerous Neoshadows, now holding Oathkeeper and Oblivion. Roxas engages the Heartless and easily destroys three.


''"Kingdom Hearts"'' then appears on the now black screen. The kanji for "I've been to see him." appears at the bottom of the screen. Back on the [[Dark Meridian]], Roxas finishes his walk towards the figure on the rock. A hooded [[Xemnas]] turns to Roxas and speaks to him (his voice is not heard, but his mouth is seen moving). The quote comes on the screen ''"He looks just like you"'' (which just so happens to be what he said). Sora is then shown flying over a vast expanse of ocean, seemingly asleep. The screen again blacks out and the final quote, ''"Everything is coming back to me, the true..."'', appears, before fading out.
'''The memory beyond'''
 
He continues, slashing them with his Keyblades, not hesitating to resort to kicking two of them. Three Neoshadows jump high in the air. Roxas looks up at them and follows suit, doing a backflip. The three Neoshadows land on the ground, one on top of each other and dissolving into darkness. More Neoshadows leap into the air, and Roxas proceeds to slash at them as he rises; with Oathkeeper in hand, he [[Strike Raid|throws the Keyblade]] and eliminates four of the airborne Heartless. The Oathkeeper returns seconds before Roxas lands on the ground, and backflips up to the porch of Memory's Skyscraper, other Neoshadows beginning to crawl up the structure's gargoyle statues, as he looks out at the horde of Heartless. He looks up at the screens of the Skyscraper.
 
'''Something so simple'''
 
Riku stands atop the screens, looking down at Roxas. He smirks; Roxas mimicks the action and jumps onto a post, leaps to an extrusion on the wall, and begins running up the side of the Skyscraper, Oathkeeper and Oblivion held out at his sides. Neoshadows begin to chase after him, as new ones emerge from above, which Roxas promptly cut down. Riku walks up to the very edge of the Skyscraper's screens.
 
'''XIII'''
<br>'''"Where's Sora?"'''
<br>'''"We must find him..."'''
 
Roxas hurls Oblivion upward in another Strike Raid-like move, eliminating several more Neoshadows. Riku jumps off the edge, body parallel with the ground, with his arms outstretched.
 
'''12'''
<br>'''[Ansem's other report]'''
<br>'''"A creation born of ignorance."'''
 
The Oblivion slices through one more Neoshadow before Riku catches it; his body turns, now parallel to the Skyscraper as three more of the Heartless leap down after him.
 
'''11'''
<br>'''Behind the darkness ≠ Door to the light'''
 
The two approach the Skyscraper's largest screen; Roxas - now wielding the [[Kingdom Key]] in his right hand - runs past the bottom of the central screen while Riku falls.
 
'''X'''
<br>'''The secret place'''
<br>'''"His voice... It's left me."'''
<br>'''"This time... I'll fight."'''
 
The two pass each other, turning their head to the other before continuing on their way. The clouds above Memory's Skyscraper clear, revealing three rays of light.
 
'''9'''
<br>'''A world between = A forgotten world'''
<br>'''The gathering'''
 
Roxas mouths something as he and Riku continue on their paths.
 
'''VIII'''
<br>'''The third enemy = Nobody "Who is Nobody, you ask? They are the nonexistent ones."'''
 
Roxas has flashing images of Sora during his [[Dive to the Heart]].
 
'''VII'''
<br>'''ENDLESS'''
<br>'''"What took you so long, Kairi?"'''
<br>'''"Can we do it? Against that?"'''
 
More flashes of Sora's memory. Roxas walks up to [[Xemnas|the hooded figure]] sitting on a rock.
 
'''HEARTLESS'''
<br>'''"We have come for you, my liege."'''
<br>'''"You are the source of all Heartless."'''
 
'''6'''
<br>'''The Thirteenth Order'''
<br>'''Metamorphosis'''
<br>'''"Sora?"'''
<br>'''"Sora...Why?"'''
<br>'''"Your Highness! But why?"'''
 
An older Kairi watches the meteor shower on Destiny Islands.
 
'''5'''
<br>'''Change — The third key'''
 
Riku plummets to the ground.
 
'''4'''
<br>'''End of the world'''
<br>'''"Is this the answer you've been looking for?"'''
<br>'''"This is the world in its true form."'''
<br>'''"Maybe our journey means nothing after all."'''
 
'''3'''
<br>'''Paradise'''
 
Kairi reaches toward Sora.
 
'''"We'll go together."'''
 
'''II'''
 
A Black Coated [[Mickey Mouse|King Mickey]] flips through the air, landing on the rooftop of the Memory's Skyscraper with the [[Kingdom Key D]] held behind him.
 
'''KINGOM HEARTS'''
 
Back at the [[Dark Meridian]], Roxas approaches Xemnas again; he turns to Roxas and speaks to him.
 
'''"He looks just like you."'''
 
Sora then flies over a vast expanse of ocean, seemingly asleep, under a cloudy sky.  
 
'''"Everything is coming back to me, the true..."'''
