A King's Treasure [Rikku || King Mickey]

With Ansem long gone, the mouse king found himself at a heavy pause in the Bailey. The city didn't seem so radiant without Ansem the Wise. That was of course the sort of thought the mouse would keep to himself. The true effect of that loss was a burden he would bear alone for no one had the chance to know Ansem quite as well as he did. Even with that sorrowful shadow looming over the tiny keyblader he was determined to visit Radiant Garden often. Afterall, he too was a member of the restoration committee and he was very invested in seeing his friends proud of the place they once called home again. It would take a lot of effort on their part, but the unfortunate truth of it was that this garden had one very large very nasty weed. His eyes narrowed in on the vale and he could just sense the dark presence lingering there. Mickey didn't know what exactly, but he knew he could count on Maleficent to be up to something.


It wasn't just the Dark Fairy either. The last time the king came to the Radiant Garden, he went down to Ansem's lab. He was surprised to find a presence there as well wearing Teresa's face like a mask. Another friend of Mickey's that it pained him to think about. Still the king would press on. He would always press on for what was good and for the people he cared about.

A soft noise pulled at the Mouse King's attention and he turned to face the small blonde fairy just as she landed on the railing. She addressed him so she knew of him, and she looked familiar as well. He only met the Gullwing sprites in passing, but if he recall from Jiminy's journal contents, at one point this little treasure hunter was answering to Maleficent herself. Mickey rises a glance over his shoulder back at the vale before regarding the girl. "Oh. Hello there. I was passing through mostly. Thought I'd catch up with Leon or Yuffie t'see how things've been goin."
