While Mai's thoughts were wandering towards something else, the emperor had suddenly began addressing her. [i][color=bc8dbf]"Did he read my mind?"[/color][/i] Not that she minded it too much, since it gave her the answer she was looking for. Although the answer itself wasn't something she liked, she couldn't find it in herself to deny it outright either.

Soon after, she found herself in an unfamiliar building alongside her previous team members and V2.

It didn't take long for Ryteb to start giving orders, and for her to scratch the back of her head. She wasn't sure how she would go about preparing for the eventual encounter. She usually just winged her fights and very rarely did she strategize since all she fought against were Nobodies and Heartless for a good chunk of her battle experience. [color=bc8dbf]"I suppose I'll... prepare my mental state?"[/color], she said with a shrug.

V2's comment about their location caught her attention. [color=bc8dbf]"We're in Japan?"[/color] Although the names of the people mentioned earlier were indeed Japanese, this place looked too different from what she remembered as Japan. Everything looked so advanced here. Perhaps several decades in the future? Once everything in this world had settled down, the girl hoped that she could explore the area before they had to leave. It wasn't often that she could see a possible future for the place that she originated from.
