Asha quickly learns that that her usual strategy is useless on the huge armour since it is consist of separate pieces. Not only that, something is interfering with with her magic. She feels drained already although back on cocoon, Asha can manage to fight far longer than this. "Something is definite not right." says Asha under her breath. she looks around. The rest of the keyblade wielders seem not be as badly affect like her.

But the huge armour started to float above them. A voice gave a speech about the darkness, how keyblade wielder are cursed and blessed but can only bring despair and destruction to everyone they meet. This struck a chord in Asha's heart. From her world of cocoon, She heard of the l'cie, beings blessed with great power by the fal'cie(gods) but have a cursed fate worse than death. If a l'cie fails his/her mission, they turn into a cie'th, a mindless monster and so bringing destruction to everthing around them. But Asha also heard of lightning and her friends whom all become l'cie. But they made the choice to rebel against the fate set in front of them. They fought together against the fal'cie. They won in the end. Though hope and unity, they were able to overcome the toughest of foes. Asha givs a tear and a smile. Asha decided to rebel as well.

"You can take your damn offer and bugger off. I do not need your power of the darkness. All we need to defeat you is hope and unity. I reject your fate for me. I am the only one who can decide what my fate entails."

She heard one of the keyblade wielders command her to do as he does. She does what she is instructed.
