Zac stood up and said, [color=orange]"You guys are right. We're all gonna have to split up if we want the best chance to push back the Heartless. Having more than one Keyblade going to a world doesn't make much sense, if we can avoid it, since only one needs to actually lock the Keyhole. But, like Levi said, it'd be suicide to send you newbies off on your own. You guys already met them, but over in the next room with Leon and Yuffie are some emissaries from the King who'll be going with some of you and in the other room are Hoshi's new friends. Whoever those six go with, they'll have your backs. We just gotta decide who's going with who. As for me..."[/color]

Crossing his arms, he continued, [color=orange]"Like I said, sending more than one Keyblade to a world isn't really efficient and I still have my own things I gotta do. I've been doing this for a while, so I'll be fine on my own, anyway. That said, your companions should all have Gummi ships like mine or else you're all due for one incredibly short journey. I'll exchange contact info with each of them so if you guys need a mechanic or an extra set of hands to knock heads together, I'll be a short call away."[/color]

He then looked from Lucian to Hoshi, then to Levi before back again as he added, [color=orange]"As for your goals, other than sealing the Keyholes, you've gotta find this Alias guy, right? There's no reason for both jobs to be separate. If you're meant to find him, all you gotta do is continue on your way and follow your hearts. Finding him will happen naturally over your journey."[/color]

[color=orange][i]That's the only hope that's been driving me all this time, after all.[/i][/color]
