The game begins by introducing the Organization and the concept of [[Kingdom Hearts]], by way of stolen [[Saïx]] quotes from [[Kingdom Hearts II|KHII]]. [[Sanctuary]] plays as we then cut to [[Axel]] expressing a big question about [[Roxas]], before seeing a load more scenes cut together from KHII and [[Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories|Re:CoM]], accompanied by individual introductions of each Organization member. Roxas's intro includes the scene of his naming. After the opening sequence, we are treated to a scene which takes place on Roxas's 255th day in the Organization, after which the game rewinds to Day 7.

Roxas wakes up, brushes his teeth, and runs to catch the school bus. Seriously though, he wakes up and makes his way to The Grey Area, which is essentially the base room from which you will venture out into the rest of the game. You're given a tutorial on how to move, in case anyone is not quite smart enough to guess that it's the D-pad, after which you can move around. Neither [[Xigbar]] nor Saïx has much of interest to say, and [[Larxene]] is just her usual rude self, so talk to Axel to proceed. Roxas is currently locked into the "silent protagonist" cliché, although he does manage to spare a few words. Since when is [[Castle That Never Was#Where Nothing Gathers|Where Nothing Gathers]] called the "Round Room"? Ugh, I hope they're not trying to make that the official English translation, because unlike "Where Nothing Gathers", it sucks as a name. The scene that follows is [[Xion]]'s inauguration, and it reminds Roxas of his. [[Xemnas]] seems strangely bored in the latter, but whatever. After a Roxiloquy (look it up in the [[../Glossary|Glossary]]), we begin the game's first proper day... | Roxas wakes up, brushes his teeth, and runs to catch the school bus.

You start in the Underground Passage, where you're first given a tutorial on jumping. Your first task is to reach Axel, which requires you to use this newly-explained skill. One camera control tutorial later, you now have to look for a chest. Head out of the chamber into the corridor, and turn left to grab some Munny by attacking the crates. Now follow the only other open path all the way to the northernmost point in this area. On the way, you'll be tutorial'd on barricades. Once you find the chest, Roxas forgets the first rule of gaming: [[ | You start in the Underground Passage, where you're first given a tutorial on jumping.

On the way, you'll be tutorial'd on barricades. Once you find the chest, Roxas forgets the first rule of gaming: [[wikia:8bittheater:Thief|grab anything that isn't nailed down and on fire]]! Ever the voice of educative reason, Axel tells you to open the chest. You get a tutorial on treasure chests and the backpack, after which you should claim the chest's contents. Mission Complete! Head back to the dark corridor you arrived by. As you pass through the square room with the pillar in the middle, flip the glowing switch for a shortcut, then examine the dark corridor to RTC (Return To the Castle). A cutscene follows, as does another Roxiloquy. | ||
Incidentally, that treasure chest is the only one in the whole game that can be opened repeatedly. | Incidentally, that treasure chest is the only one in the whole game that can be opened repeatedly. | ||

You know, he of the rebellion. No? Oh, alright, [[Marluxia]]. Stand and watch him for a while... you'll notice he does a hair-flick that's extremely reminiscent of [[finalfantasy:Kuja|someone else]]. [[Demyx]] enquires about your musical talents, while [[Vexen]] is just a little creepy. When you're ready, talk to Saïx. | ||

After you finish off those Yellow Operas, you're done for the day. Marluxia does his hair-flick again, and we see a flash of his craving for the Keyblade's power that comes to a head in CoM...

Zexion tells you that no matter what your mission is, you should always take the time to collect hearts too. Talk about obvious... you'll soon realise that you need insane amounts of Heart Points to buy stuff in the Moogle Shop later on. Tutorials on mission objectives and the area map ensue, after which you should begin seeking the Heartless out. You can see them on your map, but since it's an early stage in the game, I'll help you a bit. From your starting point, go straight ahead and slightly to the right to take out a Yellow Opera. Next, continue ahead towards the stairs for another one, then follow the dark paving to the far east wall where you'll find two more Yellow Operas and a [[Dire Plant]]. Still following the paving, head south and west to find another Dire Plant, before finding one last Yellow Opera as you approach the start point again.

Larxene "greets" you before launching into a rant. In answer to her question, she ''does'' look like she runs a nursery school, but not one you'd want to send your kids to! She then gets an evil gleam in her eye (not that you can see it on the game's 3D model of her) and announces that for the first stage of this mission, you aren't allowed to use your Keyblade. If you forgot to equip your magic, you will totally phail this and have to withdraw. You receive a tutorial on magic, which you must then put to use by burning the Dire Plant to a crisp. Another group of Heartless appear, and Larxene's short tolerance span manifests itself, so she permits you to use your Keyblade to speed things up. Two tutorials (recovery items and shortcuts) later, you should take the Dire Plants out with your two remaining Fire casts and wipe out the Yellow Operas with attacks. Once you're finished, Larxene entertains us with her best [[ | Larxene "greets" you before launching into a rant.

Once you're finished, Larxene entertains us with her best [[wikia:simpsons:Comic Book Guy|Comic Book Guy]] impression ("Worst. Mission. Ever") before enigmatically hinting at there being another Keybearer. Hmmm... Clear out the three treasure chests if you've not already done so, then RTC. Unsurprisingly, we're treated to another Roxiloquy. | ||

When you wake up in the morning, the last thing you want to run into while not properly awake is Vexen's ugly mug. Still, you'll probably wake right up when he says something quite frankly disturbing like "You're mine today" to you! Stuff of nightmares, that... Today's mission is recon training with Vexen. Yet another tutorial crops up in your path (don't trip over it, now!) and the game offers you Control Scheme B. I prefer to stick with CSA, but you can swap if you want. Double check your panels – you'll want to equip the Scan panel you got from the last mission, as well as Potions and Ethers. Queen Bitch has naught but an amusing pastime to suggest to you, Demyx utters a resentful remark about the aforementioned, and Vexen is going into [[ | When you wake up in the morning, the last thing you want to run into while not properly awake is Vexen's ugly mug.

By now I shouldn't have to tell you to talk to Saïx to get going. | ||

Now, for the first time, the Organization members lounging around in the Grey Area have freebies to give you!
