Riku: Difference between revisions

With all seven guardians finally assembled, they meet at the Mysterious Tower, where Riku thanks Aqua for saving him during his first visit to the Realm of Darkness. Yen Sid tells them all to spend the day recuperating before meeting at the Keyblade Graveyard. Riku accompanies Sora and Kairi to the Destiny Islands, but spends the evening on the beach alone so he may speak to the replica in his heart. The replica admits he would rather exist within Riku's heart than fade into darkness, and states he has "one last thing to do."

The next day, Riku joins the other guardians in the Keyblade Graveyard, where he helps battle the horde of Heartless, Nobodies, and Unversed summoned by the real Organization XIII and passes through the fissure ahead of Sora. On the other side, Terra-Xehanort appears and attacks the guardians, incapacitating Ven and Lea before being ejected from the battlefield. In his wake, a massive Demon Tide appears, and though Riku tries to rally Sora and Aqua to fight it, it quickly devours them all except for himself and Sora. As Sora breaks down in tears, Riku steps forward with a simple statement of faith in him, and faces down the Demon Tide alone.
