==Story==
==Story==
After the [[Universe_of_Kingdom_Hearts#Corridors_of_darkness|corridor of darkness]] leading to [[Destiny Islands]] closed, [[Xemnas]] attacks the [[Sora]] and Riku with a giant Dragon-like battleship. After the ship destroys part of the upper tower of the castle, Riku notices the glider and runs towards it closely followed by [[Sora]]. The two then continue to follow Xemnas on the Glider until [[Xemnas_(Boss)#Armored_Controller#Second_Incarnation|they face him in the ship's cockpit]], and the Glider is sucked into a void of nothingness.
===''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''===
After the [[Corridor of Darkness]] leading to [[Destiny Islands]] closes, Xemnas and the dragon appear to attack Sora and Riku. After the latter destroys the upper tower of the [[Castle That Never Was]], Riku notices the Glider and runs towards it, asking [[Sora]] to get on its side platform. The two follow them, fighting the dragon until they face [[Game:Xemnas#Armored Controller|Xemnas]] in the ship's cockpit, and the Glider is sucked into a void.


==Design==
==Design==
The design for the glider is done after Sidecar motorcycles where the driver rides in a set on the main portion of the vehicle while driving, and a secondary passenger rides in a separate seat. This same design is used for the glider. Riku drives while Sora stands on the side appendage, both of them use their [[Keyblade]]s to fight off incoming enemies. Two [[Nobody]] emblems adorn the glider, one directly infront of the driver's seat and another one on the floor of the sidecar.
The Glider's design is similar to that of sidecar motorcycles, where a small cab is attached to the relatively larger main vehicle in order to provide for a second passenger. It shares many similarities with Terra's and Ventus's [[Keyblade Glider]]s. Like Terra's glider, the main vehicle is sharply angled at its front tip, and the seats in both are slung forward so that the driver is nearly horizontal. The sidecar's design is similar to Ventus's Glider, in that the rider must stand as though riding a [[skateboard]], allowing them to strike passing enemies.


It shares many similarities with Terra's [[Keyblade Glider]].
==Controls==
*{{button|dpad}}/{{button|lana}}: Move the ship.
*{{button|x}}: {{nihongo|'''Attack'''|たたかう|Tatakau}}: Sora performs a 360˚ horizontal slash. This attack will only hit the [[Bomb Bell]]s that often appear in front of Sora and Riku. If the Nobodies are hit, they will be thrown into the dragon, dealing a large amount of damage. Riku uses it automatically when the Bomb Bell Nobodies appear.
*{{button|s}}: {{nihongo|'''Laser'''|レーザー|Rēzā}}: The Glider shoots multiple lasers from an angular pod at the bottom of the Glider.
*{{button|c}}: {{nihongo|'''Drain'''|ドレイン|Dorein}}: Riku summons a barrier that absorbs the energy from oncoming lasers and fills an energy meter that, when full, allows the player to use the Megalaser [[Reaction Command]].
*{{button|t}}: {{nihongo|'''Megalaser'''|オーバーレイ|Ōbārei|lit. "Overray"}}: When the energy meter is full, Sora and Riku fire a long-lasting laser that can be aimed with {{button|lana}}.

[[Category:Kingdom Hearts II]]
 
===Mega-Laser===
The Mega-Laser is a [[Reaction Command]] that can only be activated after filling the Mega-Laser bar by using Energy-Block to convert the offensive lasers from enemies into energy to power it up.
 
===Drain===
This command allows you to absorb some of the energy from oncoming lasers to charge up the energy meter so that you can use the Mega-laser Reaction Command. It also appears to reflect some of the energy at Xemnas's ship. It is used by pressing the {{button|c}}.
