'''Chapter 3: Sea Salt Ice Cream''' is the third chapter in the ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts II|manga}}'' manga.


==Story==
==Synopsis==
On his way to [[The Usual Spot]], [[Roxas]] casually tosses a stick, which ends up hitting a man in a black coat, who walks away without a word. Roxas enters the Usual Spot, where his friends wait, and they eat ice cream together. [[Hayner]] comes up with the idea to go to the beach, but they don't have enough money. Hayner runs off, saying he'll take care of it, and ends up getting all of them a job [[Poster Duty|putting up posters]]. The posters announce a [[Struggle]] tournament in two days, and Roxas promises Hayner they'll fight each other in the finals, and split the prize between the four of them.
While walking towards the Usual Spot, [[Roxas]] continues trying to summon the [[Keyblade]] using a [[Wooden Stick]]. He gives up and throws it away, accidentally hitting a man in a black cloak. Roxas apologies as the man walks away.


Meanwhile, the man in the black coat calls [[DiZ]] to tell him about the beach trip. DiZ tells him Roxas isn't allowed to leave town.
Roxas meets up with his friends, who give him an ice cream bar. The quartet speak of their future, and how they won't be like this forever. Hayner suggests that they all go to the beach that day to create new memories of their friendship. However, they do not have enough munny. Determined to go to the beach, Hayner heads into town and gives everybody a job. Their job is to put up posters around town of the upcoming Struggle Tournament.


At the station, the friends have collected enough munny, and [[Olette]] gives Roxas the pouch for safekeeping. As he makes his way to the station, a stick is thrown at Roxas, and he falls. The man in the black coat looms over him, and asks him if he can feel [[Sora]]. His friends call out to him, and Roxas sees the man has vanished. As they order train tickets, Roxas discovers the munny is missing. Realizing the man in the black coat must have taken it, he prepares to head back, but his friends tell him nobody was around when he fell. At that moment, the train leaves. The four friends end up eating ice cream on top of the clock tower, with Roxas thinking about the man's question.
DiZ, on the other hand, refuses to allow Roxas and his friends to leave the town. He informs [[Riku|his apprentice]] over the phone to stop them at all costs, and also not to get too attached to Roxas.


The next day, Roxas finds a note from Hayner saying they'll go to the beach that day. [[Pence]] and Olette appear and explain Hayner got the munny from his uncle. When Roxas responds, Pence and Olette appear frozen. [[Naminé]] appears behind Roxas and tells him to come to the [[Old Mansion]], where she will explain things.
The quartet soon earns enough munny necessary for the trip. Olette hands Roxas the munny pouch, placing him in charge of getting the tickets. The group then hurries towards the station. At the Station Plaza, Roxas trips on a stick. The man in a black coat appears, lifting Roxas up. The man asks if Roxas can feel Sora, and then disappears.


==Worlds and characters==
Roxas rejoins his friends in the station, only to find out that he was robbed. Roxas concludes the thief is the man from before. He tries to go after the mysterious man, only to be stopped by his friends, who never saw the man in the first place. The train soon leaves without the group. The group goes to the Clock Tower with some ice cream, with Roxas still lamenting on the loss of the pouch. As everyone watches the sunset, Roxas recalls the words that the black thief spoke, and wonders about Sora.

Back at the computer lab, the apprentice asks about the status of [[Organization XIII]]. DiZ states the Organization has been quiet, apparently waiting for his move. Regardless of the Organization's actions, DiZ wants Naminé to work faster. Elsewhere, a [[Naminé|girl]] is shown overlooking a [[Memory Pod|pod]]. She only says one line: "Sora".

Roxas arrives at the Usual Spot the next morning, finding a note left by Hayner. The note instructs the group to gather at the station, claiming they will go to the beach. At the station, Roxas meets Pence and Olette, who reveal that Hayner got the 5,000 munny from his uncle. Suddenly, time stops, freezing both of them. A girl appears and tells Roxas to head for the Old Mansion if he wants the answers to his questions. Time then unfreezes and Roxas dashes after the girl, confusing Pence and Olette.
