Mickey Mouse: Difference between revisions

At the Mysterious Tower, Yen Sid suggests that Mickey and Riku journey to the worlds Aqua had visited to in the past to gain clues to her current whereabouts. He provides new garments for Kairi and Lea, and requests that Riku and Mickey deliver them when they visit Merlin to gain new Keyblades. Mickey travels with Riku to Radiant Garden, the last place Aqua was seen in the Realm of Light. They discuss the path of Xehanort's heart through time and vessels, and the realization that the Xehanort that served Ansem the Wise was, in fact, a possessed Terra. After a phone call from Sora, they head into the castle to discuss the replica project with [[Ienzo]].

Without any new leads to her location, Mickey and Riku travel back to the Dark Margin to pick up Aqua's trail. They are assaulted by the Demon Tower, and Mickey becomes trapped within it. [[Anti-Aqua]] reveals herself and claims Mickey's Keyblade, planning to use it to return to the Realm of Light and leaving Mickey and Riku trapped in the realm of darkness. Sora enters the realm of darkness to defend Mickey and Riku, defeating Anti-Aqua and freeing her from the darkness.

After this, Mickey and Riku rest at The Mysterious Tower while Sora escorts Aqua to go wake up Ventus. After retrieving Ventus and Kairi and Lea return from their training, the whole team regroups at Yen Sid's Tower and Mickey takes the opportunity to apologize to Ventus and Aqua for being unable to find Terra. Aqua assures him that he shouldn't feel sorry because he is Aqua and Ventus's responsibility. Donald also takes the time to share that Mickey is a true Keyblade Master. After that, Yen Side instructs everyone to rest for the day and prepare for the final battle the next day.

The seven guardians of light along with Donald and Goofy arrive at the Keyblade Graveyard, ready to clash with the thirteen seekers of darkness. They are greeted by Master Xehanort. Gradually, Xemnas, Ansem, Vanitas and Young Xehanort also arrive to taunt the seven guardians of their impending failure. The seekers of darkness then unleash a massive swarm of Heartless, Nobodies and Unversed for the guardians to fight.

After dealing with the swarm, the guardians are soon approached by Terra-Xehanort who proceeds to take out the team. Donald destroys Terra-Xehanort with Zettaflare, but collapses due to magic overuse, and the guardians, including Mickey, lose their hearts to a massive Demon Tide. Luckily, Sora is able to save everyone and bring them back to the point before their initial defeat at the hands of Terra-Xehanort. The guardians confront Terra-Xehanort again but their encounter is interrupted by the Lingering Will who takes the fight away from them. The guardians are soon confronted by a Demon Tide with a massive horde of Heartless and Nobodies. Mickey and Riku pair off to fight the Heartless. Their fight with the Heartless is cut short by a Heartless swarm forming and sweeping up all the enemies, followed by Sora defeating the swarm thanks to the light of the past. The guardians are soon approached by Dark Riku who summons a horde of Heartless to surround them. Mickey attempts to cast Stopza to eliminate the horde, but Riku persuades him not to. The guardians are saved by Yen Sid who holds off the Heartless with Donald and Goofy to allow the guardians to proceed to the final fight. The guardians soon confront the Real Organization XIII. Master Xehanort initiates the final battle by creating a maze called the Skein of Severance. The guardians soon split up to fight their final battles.

Mickey faces off against Xemnas, Luxord, Larxene, and Marluxia. When Sora joins the battle, Xemnas powers up Luxord and leaves. Luxord traps Mickey in a card and battles Sora for Mickey's freedom, but Sora frees Mickey by defeating Luxord. Mickey helps Sora defeat Marluxia and Larxene and chases after Xemnas, telling Sora to assist the others.

Sora regroups with Riku and Mickey at the Tower of Endings, where Master Xehanort explains that with nine keys spawned from the clashes between light and darkness, he only needs four more to forge the χ-blade. The three guardians defeat Young Xehanort, Ansem, and Xemnas, forging three more keys. With one clash left, Master Xehanort slays Kairi, forcing Sora to attack him in tears. In anger, Mickey attempts to cast Ultima, but Xehanort counters with Stopza and forges the χ-blade at last. Despite being frozen in time, Mickey is able to contact a future version of Sora, explaining that Xehanort had merely scattered the fragments of Kairi's heart and telling Sora to collect the fragments to save her.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind}} After the time freeze wears off, Mickey explains his plan to use Xehanort's ability to move through time against him and trap and defeat him. Mickey attempts to enlist Aqua and Riku to help him do the job, but Sora intervenes and states his desire to do so. After some convincing, Mickey allows Sora to finish off Xehanort while Mickey and the other guardians close Kingdom Hearts.

After Master Xehanort's defeat, Mickey and the other guardians follow their hearts to Sora, Donald, and Goofy. After Xehanort hands Sora the χ-blade and admits defeat, the other guardians completely close Kingdom Hearts and return to the Keyblade Graveyard. Sora announces his desire to save Kairi using the Power of Waking. Mickey tries to warn Sora not to as he might lose his heart in the process. Riku and Sora convince Mickey to believe in Sora. He then wishes Sora a safe journey.

After Sora's departure, Mickey, Donald, and Goofy return to Disney Castle with Yen Sid. Mickey reunites with Queen Minnie and Pluto. He soon watches fireworks in celebration of Xehanort's defeat. Mickey then travels to Destiny Islands to celebrate Sora and Kairi's return. Mickey and the others soon witness Sora fading away as a result of misusing the power of waking.

After Kairi awakens, Mickey is informed that Riku had a gone to [[Quadratum]] to find Sora. Fearing for Riku's safety, Mickey tries to go after him before being stopped by Yen Sid, aware that they were going into "uncharted waters". Knowing that Xehanort's clue came from during his time as a researcher, he and the group hear Yen Sid recall stories of the ancient Keyblade Masters crossing over into another world and believes Xehanort might have studied it.  

In battle, Mickey can perform two attacks: the first being simply [[Attack]], and the other being [[Pearl]], a magical attack that damages the opponent with a homing ball of light. He can also jump with {{Button|c}}, and can use {{Button|t}} to perform the D-Charge Reaction Command, which slowly charges his Drive Gauge; the process is sped up during [[MP Charge]]. Once the Drive Gauge is full, Mickey can activate [[Healing Light]], which will fully recover Sora's HP, [[MP]], and Drive Gauge as well as switch the player back to Sora. If Mickey is defeated before using Healing Light, Mickey will instead use a Hi-Potion to heal Sora so that he regains half of his HP, although his MP and Drive Gauge will remain the way it was before he was defeated.

While Mickey can deal damage, he lacks a finishing move, so he cannot defeat a boss as Mickey due to the fact that he lacks a finishing move. However, Mickey is very powerful and one could use him to damage the boss to the point where Sora need only land a finishing blow to finish the battle after reviving him.

King Mickey can be playable during the following battles:
