Chapter 167: The Highwind's Passengers Mickey walked inside the cockpit, where Eric had a strong grip of the steering wheel while the crewmen concentrated on their monitors… "…It took years to think of, and now…now I'm standing inside it, a REAL flying ship. I gotta congratulate the chipmunks when I see'em again." Mickey said. "Those little rodents worked on the ship's tech nonsense, the ship, that's MY work." Cid said as he turned his chair to face Mickey. Mickey crossed his arms and said, "You Amestrian mechanics have my gratitude, thank you." Cid then corrected, "I ain't some shmuck from Amestris, I just own a shop there. My real home is the one my pals in the Restoration Committee tried to take back. Unfortunately, I hear they ran into some Amestrian trouble, FORT BRIGGS Amestrian trouble to be exact." Mickey then walked over to Cid and said, "…Your home…wouldn't happen to be Radiant Garden, would it?" Cid nodded, "Whatever's left of it is still, and will always be, our home.

Chapter 168: Highwind to Low-wind Sora walked through the Highwind to the Elrics while thinking about Namine’s warning that she would not only restore his memories of Kairi, but something else…something she’s afraid of giving back to him. As Sora considered Namine’s words, he started to hear someone weep… Sora checked inside a room where Rio sat on a bed and cried. Rick tugged on Sora’s coat and said, “…excuse me, do you mind? Rio needs some time alone.” Sora nodded and walked with Rick. As they walked away, Rick explained, “…he found out why Mom couldn’t protect us.” Sora then asked, “W-wait, what about a mother?” Rick then pulled out the locket Rio had earlier and said, “Earlier, Rio hated mom because he thought she abandoned us, but she actually couldn’t see us. She was praying and forgot to take this…” Rick then opened the locket to reveal a happy picture of him, Rio, and their mother, as well as a small tiny bag with pills in it. Sora examined the pills and said, “…these are

Chapter 169: The Sonozaki Sisters As the Highwind began to fall, Rio left his room and asked, "Rick, what's happening?!" Rick answered, "I don't know Rio, it feels like the ship's about to break in half! Not only that, but some of the crewmen say they're being attacked!" Rio grabbed Rick and said, "We can't just stand here then, we need to hide-!" (WOOF-WOOF) The boys suddenly noticed Maka, running through the hall with Vivi chasing her. As Vivi caught the little pup, he noticed Rick and Rio, and then he said, "Do you guys know where Sora is?" Rick answered, "He might be with the Elric Brothers, but with all this trouble going around, he could be anywhere!" "-Then we'll have to find him, won't we?" Eiko asked as she arrived by Vivi's side. Eiko then said, "Fear not boys, the adult is here to guide you to safety!" Vivi then argued, "How can you be the adult? I'm older than you-." Eiko then argued back, "WOULD YOU DENY A WOMAN HER RIGHT TO LEAD?!" Vivi kept himself quiet as Eiko

Chapter 170: The Breaking Point "What do you intend to do with them, once they're ready?" "I would prepare the MARK OF MASTERY." Crimson sat in his throne, contemplating what he and Yen Sid discussed… "…Edward Elric…a worthy candidate for 'Warrior of Light'? NOT EVEN CLOSE TO DOIN' THE 'THRILLER WALK' WITH ME! Those kids, THAT one in particular, are migraines with legs, and the last thing Balthazar needs is another reason to lose his hair!" Crimson then snapped his fingers and summoned a portal to see how the Highwind was faring against the assassins' attack. First, Crimson saw Alphonse opposing Mion while protecting Vivi. Then he saw Sora chasing after glimpses of Shion's shadow. He then saw Edward, greeting Winry, who with Aqua, Ling Yao, Lan Fan, Goofy, and Aqua, carry Kairi and Namine over to the portal. And finally, Crimson noticed, Mickey and Cid preparing the escape pods to eject with every passenger from the ship. Crimson then said, "The supposed 'chosen' seem to have

Chapter 171: The Pain of the Past Just remembering what Shion did enraged Sora to the point where he changed the Keyblade back into a real dagger! And thus, he leapt towards Shion, planning to end her life! Just then, cracks started to spread through the generator room, showing the two assassins where the Highwind was crashing down towards! The part of the floor Shion was on broke away, making Sora miss! Sora however, didn't give up, he swung at Shion, but to his surprise, the girl was flexible enough to dodge his killer sword attacks! "What was it you said before, 'I never harmed people like you did'? From the look on your cute little eyes, I'd say you've got some KILLER in you!" Shion bragged. Sora then swung his leg, tripping his enemy over! The bodyguard then attempted to stab Shion, but the madwoman dodged and attempted to inject him with Hinamizawa, but Sora grabbed her wrist and threw her against the wall, forcing her to drop the syringe! Sora prepared the killing blow when
