Warning red.pngREAD BEFORE EDITING:
  • Red-linked phrases should not be de-linked or pipe-linked if the phrase is from an official publication. Instead, please start an article or redirect at the link's target.
  • Technical info must be written in accordance with the consensus formats. Adding technical info without using these formats creates extra work for other editors and wastes everyone's time.
  • Trivia will be removed if it fails to meet the notability guidelines.
  • Do not source news to fansite translations of official publications or journals. Instead, source the publication or journal itself.
  • Based on the spelling used by the games, "Grey" is preferred over "Gray".
  • Entelechy is used here per its English definition, and is not meant to imply that it is an official term within the Kingdom Hearts franchise.
  • Do NOT add voice actors to a character's article UNLESS YOU HAVE A CLEAR SOURCE TO SUPPORT IT.

[[File:2.9 - The First Volume 01.png|250px|thumb|Sora and friends heading to Olympus Coliseum.]]'''2.9 - The First Volume''' is the secret ending of [[Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-]]. Like ''[[Blank Points]]'', ''[[Signs of What's Next]]'' and [[Another Guardian of Light]], it uses in-game engine graphics, voice acting, ends with the phrase "''Reconnect. Kingdom Hearts''", and does not tease a future game, instead serving as the true ending of the game and a true prologue to the events of ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]''.

"'''2.9 - The First Volume'''" is the ending of ''[[Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-]]''. It uses in-game graphics and voice acting, and ends with the phrase "[[Reconnect. Kingdom Hearts]]". It serves as the true ending and acts as a prologue to ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]''. A slightly condensed version of the scene was later used in the opening scenes of ''Kingdom Hearts III'' itself.
 
==Synopsis==
==Synopsis==
Having learned the role he unknowingly played in sealing [[Aqua]]'s fate, [[Riku]] demands to know why [[King Mickey]] kept it secret. [[Yen Sid]] explains this was done to prevent [[Sora]] from attempting to rescue Aqua, and he reveals a safe means of entering the [[Realm of Darkness]] has been found. Riku and Mickey receive new garments made by [[Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather]], and they depart to find Aqua and return her to the [[Realm of Light]]. Meanwhile, [[Kairi]] is instructed to train under the wizard [[Merlin]] so she can become a [[Keyblade]] wielder.
Horrified by the news, Riku demands to know why Mickey kept this a secret from him. Yen Sid explains the dangers of venturing into the Realm of Darkness, something that Sora most likely would have tried to attempt, though they have now found a safer way. Yen Sid presents Riku and Mickey with new garments to protect them from the darkness for their journey to rescue Aqua, and assigns Kairi to train with [[Lea]] as a Keyblade wielder under [[Merlin]].  
 
A short time later, [[Donald]] and [[Goofy]] reunite with Sora, who returns to [[Mysterious Tower]] after a prolonged absence. Sora is tasked with learning to retrieve lost hearts by Yen Sid, and he is told that almost becoming [[Master Xehanort]]'s vessel has stripped him of many powers. Yen Sid reminds Sora of [[Hercules]], who once lost and regained his godlike strength, and the Keyblade wielder departs with Donald and Goofy to pay the hero a visit.


Aboard the [[Gummi Ship]], Sora and friends wonder how they will travel to other worlds, as the lanes between them have been resealed. Suddenly, Goofy remembers an old saying of Yen Sid's: "May your heart be your guiding key." Using his heart, Sora successfully opens a path to [[Olympus Coliseum]].
Shortly afterwards, Sora returns to the Tower, where Yen Sid explains that his task will now be to find a way to retrieve people's lost hearts. Though Sora has once again been stripped of most of his power, due to nearly becoming one of Master Xehanort's vessels, Yen Sid reminds him of [[Hercules|a previous acquaintance]] who once lost and regained his power, and advises Sora to pay him a visit with [[Donald Duck|Donald]] and [[Goofy]].


Aboard the Gummi Ship, the trio ponder on how to travel between worlds due to the passageways having been sealed again. Remembering Yen Sid's words, "May our hearts be our guiding key", Goofy advises Sora to use his heart and he is able to open a passageway to Olympus Coliseum, setting the stage for ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]''.
