Signs of What's Next
Signs of What's Next is the secret ending of Kingdom Hearts Re:coded. Like Blank Points, it uses game-engine graphics and voice acting and ends with the phrase Reconnect. Kingdom Hearts, but does not tease a future game, instead serving as a prelude to the events of Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance.
Synopsis
King Mickey and Yen Sid are seen mid-conversation in the Sorcerer's Chamber of the Mysterious Tower. Mickey says that they may be close to knowing the location of Ventus's heart, and Yen Sid concludes that the only one left to find is Terra.
Yen Sid then proceeds to tell Mickey that he wonders what Xehanort's next intentions will be. Mickey is puzzled as to how Xehanort could even be around, as both his Heartless (Ansem) and his Nobody (Xemnas) have been destroyed by Sora. Yen Sid explains to him that in doing so, Sora actually freed Xehanort's heart from the Heartless, Ansem, and vanquished his left over body which had become Xemnas. Both halves have now reconstructed the original Xehanort, which will also eventually lead to the return of his original incarnation, Master Xehanort.
Mickey assures Yen Sid that he, Sora, and Riku will be there to counter Xehanort should he attack the Realm of Light again, but Yen Sid explains that Sora and Riku are not powerful enough like Mickey, who is a true Keyblade Master, and furthermore, tells Mickey that one Keyblade Master alone will not be enough to face what is "not a single one of [Xehanort]".
Before Mickey can question this, Yen Sid orders Mickey to summon Sora and Riku to him to undertake a Mark of Mastery Exam.
