Brain is chosen by the [[Keyblade]] and awakens within [[Daybreak Town]], where he joins a [[Union]] of fellow Keyblade wielders. Eventually, he is approached by [[Ava]] and informed of the coming end of the world, subsequently joining the [[Dandelions]]. He receives training in preparation for crossing Worldlines in order to avoid taking part in the [[Keyblade War]], thus ensuring the survival of light.

Brain meets with [[Ava]] on the hill overlooking [[Daybreak Town]], where she asks him to become a Union leader. Though Brain initially believes that he's not cut out to be a leader, he changes his mind after hearing that the [[Master of Masters]] was the one to choose the [[Union]] leaders. Brain becomes suspicious when Ava informs him that she can't reveal the other four leaders just yet, and so Ava asks him what would happen if the world's fate was already decided. Extrapolating, Ava points to the [[Book of Prophecies]], asking what would happen if you could change what was written within it, with Brain wondering if the Book would change as well. Ava explains that there's no way of knowing, which means there would be a future that was not planned out. Thus, Ava provides Brain a copy of the Book of Prophecies, going against the predetermined future, as he'd not been chosen by the Master of Masters to receive it. Ava then places the memo from the Master of Masters in Brain's copy of the Book of Prophecies, intending for him to read it when the time came to decide their futures, hoping that her message to Brain would be clear at that time.

As per Ava's instructions, the new Union leaders are to come together in the [[Keyblade Graveyard]] following the Keyblade War. Brain is the fourth to arrive, after [[Ephemer]], [[Skuld]], and [[Ventus]]. Brain questions if the rules set forth by Ava are absolute, expressing his wariness to trust Ava because she wants them to lie to the [[Dandelions]] about the Keyblade War. Thinking of how {{c|Player|KHχ}} had suffered, Ephemer states that no one else should have to carry the burden of the past, a sentiment Skuld and the others accept.{{storylink|Quest 675: Master Aced}}

After the final Union leader, [[Lauriam]], arrives, the Union leaders go to Daybreak Town and enter the Foretellers' Chamber, where Brain finds a copy of the [[Book of Prophecies]] and starts flipping through it. When Skuld proposes that they begin choosing which Union each of them will lead, Ephemer recommends that they maintain the Union χ in order to prevent the conflicts of the past world, with the other Union leaders agreeing to reconstitute the old system later as stated in the rules. Brain then suggests that, while the Dandelions are reliving the events of the past, they collect the necessary ingredients to create new [[Dream Eaters|Spirits]] and sends Ephemer, Skuld, and Ventus to collect the ingredients while he and Lauriam stay behind to make the necessary preparations.{{storylink|Quest 735: The Shiny Hammer Pt. 5}}

When Lauriam returns, he asks Skuld about his sister, Strelitzia, revealing that he had been out looking for her. Lauriam explains the circumstances of Strelitzia's disappearance, including the fact that she had been pursuing an individual in order to convince them to join the Dandelions. Brain chimes in to point out how odd it is that Strelitzia, who was hesitant to become a Dandelion herself, would be so desperate to convince someone else to join.{{storylink|Quest 851: More Heartless in Daybreak Town Pt. 6}}

After Ephemer and Lauriam leave to investigate Strelitzia's disappearance, Ventus asks Brain about the book that he's reading. Brain explains that even if they overwrite the Keyblade War, the world is still on a destructive path, and resolves to be the virus that overwrites that destiny.{{storylink|Quest 860: Daybreak Fun with Ephemer Pt. 5}}

Making his way to the Control Room, Brain encounters glitches and gets to work attempting to stop them.{{storylink|Quest 861: Trouble at the Tower? Pt. 1}} Ephemer, Ventus, and Player, whom Ephemer introduces, manage to catch up with him and question what's happening concerning the glitches outside. Brain reveals that he's managed to stop an infestation for now, before going on to explain how, in the world before the Keyblade War, they were able to visit worlds of the future via the Book of Prophecies. As these worlds currently existed, they did not require the Book of Prophecies to reach them, because they were all connected to Daybreak Town, though it would have been hard to reach them due to the scope of the world. However, since the Keyblade War, these worlds have become disconnected. Having been foretold, the worlds were recreated as data in order to ensure that they and their respective futures could still be accessed virtually, through the data Daybreak Town. When Brain poses the question of whether they are in the real or the data Daybreak Town, he notes that the presence of the glitches suggests that they are within the data version.

After Ventus is put in his room to rest, Brain consults with Ephemer and Skuld. He concludes from Ventus's description that he was there when Strelitzia disappeared, but affirms along with Ephemer that Darkness must be the true culprit.{{storylink|Quest 960: To the Race Track! Pt. 5}} Brain believes now that Darkness is inside Ventus and that it remains close. He suspects it will come after them as it did Strelitzia. Brain, Ephemer and Skuld are then approached by an injured Lauriam, demanding answers about happened to his sister. As Skuld and Ephemer try to calm Lauriam down, Ventus enters the room and admits he is responsible for what happened to Strelitzia. Brain tries to stop Lauriam from attacking Ventus. In the midst of the conflict, Ventus collapses on the ground and Darkness emerges from him.{{storylink|Quest 965: Pest Control Pt. 3}}

The Union leaders discover that Darkness was responsible for replacing Strelitzia with Ventus. Brain questions Darkness about its motive, its relationship with the Master of Masters, and why it chose to show itself now. Finally, he asks if Darkness is alone, to which it answers that it is. Brain then summons his Keyblade and battles Darkness alongside Ephemer and Skuld.{{storylink|Quest 970: Pest Control Pt. 8}} The three of them are defeated, and Darkness tells them that the world is fated for destruction. Brain retorts that regardless of what is fated for them, they believe in Ephemer, their leader. Ventus then awakens and clashes with Darkness, ending the battle.{{storylink|Quest 977: Darkness Looms}}

As the data world begins to deteriorate, Brain and the others make plans to escape back to the real world using the lifeboats. Brain gives Ephemer his Keyblade, [[Master's Defender]], and the Book of Prophecies before returning to the real world alongside Lauriam, Ventus, and Elrena. {{storylink|Quest 978: What Comes After}} Back in the real Daybreak Town, Brain sends Lauriam, Ventus, and Elrena away from the collapsing world in the lifeboats. Brain is then approached by [[Luxu]], who asks what his plan is. Brain asserts that he will stay in the collapsing Daybreak Town for as long as it takes to figure out how to save all the Dandelions. Luxu compliments Brain's intelligence and comments that it's a shame Brain only has one lifetime to live. At some point after this exchange, Brain returns two of the lifeboats to the data world for Ephemer and Skuld.

At an unknown point in time, Brain wakes up in a city. He is approached by a hooded figure who introduces himself as [[Sigurd]] and tells Brain that his arrival on this day had been foretold. Brain begins to follow Sigurd, but is distracted as they walk past a large fountain with a statue. Sigurd explains that the statue is of Master Ephemer, the founder of the town, which he reveals to be [[Scala ad Caelum]].
