Shortly after their arrival in [[Twilight Town]], [[Sora]], [[Donald]], and [[Goofy]], they spot a Demon Tide chasing [[Hayner]], [[Pence]] and [[Olette]]. Sora, Donald, and Goofy fight against it, but the Heartless retreats before it could be vanquished. | Shortly after their arrival in [[Twilight Town]], [[Sora]], [[Donald]], and [[Goofy]], they spot a Demon Tide chasing [[Hayner]], [[Pence]] and [[Olette]].

After [[Terra-Xehanort]] is repelled by Donald's Zettaflare at the [[Keyblade Graveyard]], a massive Demon Tide appears and swallows [[King Mickey]], [[Kairi]], Donald, Goofy, [[Ventus]], [[Aqua]] and [[Lea]], scattering them throughout the worlds for the [[Lich]] to take their [[heart]]s.

[[Riku]] attempts to fight back against the Heartless to rescue his friends and boyfriend, but both he and Sora are swallowed as well. However, thanks to Kairi's light, Sora ends up in [[The Final World]], where [[Chirithy]] helps restore him. Using the [[power of waking]], Sora is able to save his friends and return to the moment Terra-Xehanort attempted them. When the [[Lingering Will]] repels Terra-Xehanort, [[Dark Riku]] and [[Xigbar]] takes his place and summons a horde of Heartless and Nobodies as a final test for the [[Seven Guardians of Light|guardians of light]]. Unfortunately, a new Demon Tide appears and goes berserk, swallowing up the rest of the Heartless and Nobodies to strengthen itself. Sora charges bravely into battle, being contacted by the spirit of [[Ephemer]], who assists him by summoning the [[Keyblade]]s in the graveyard to help fight back the Demon Tide. With the power of the [[Union]]s, Sora is able to reach the core of the Demon Tide and destroy the Heartless. | ||

The Demon Tide is the final boss of ''Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-''. As such, it is resilient. Aqua should be sure to have many items equipped before she faces this Heartless. | The Demon Tide is the final boss of ''Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-''.

This boss initially has access to three attacks: a soaring strike, a Shadow trap, and an assault from underground. Each of these can be avoided with a well-timed [[Barrier]], and a quick Counter Blast can then be used to damage the boss. Aqua can tell when the Demon Tide is about to attack by watching the eyes of the Shadows that comprise it: when the eyes glow red, it means the boss is about to strike. Aqua should avoid the Demon Tide in these instances and use a combination of physical attacks and magic to harm it in the interim. | ====Phase one==== | ||

Aqua should avoid the Demon Tide in these instances and use a combination of physical attacks and magic to harm it in the interim. Whenever the Wayfinder [[Situation Command]] becomes available, Aqua can use it to immobilize the Demon Tide and quickly deplete its HP by teaming up with King Mickey. | |||

The Demon Tide becomes much more aggressive in an attempt to protect its vulnerable core. Added to its arsenal is a new projectile attack that is best avoided with Cartwheel. It switches between this and a another attack, in which its tornado of Shadows glows red and rushes Aqua. During this attack it retreats every now and then, giving Aqua the ability to use Barrier again. If Aqua stands too close to the edge of the map, it might not retreat far enough. In this case the attack is continuous. While the tornado is blue-purple, it's safe to attack. When its health gets even lower, the Demon Tide warps away its core while its tornado remains. After this, invulnerable orbs made of Shadows will be launched from the ground at random. If this happens, Aqua should Cartwheel around as much as possible to dodge these. If she is hit, the orbs will launch her into the sky, where she is a risk of being hit again by other orbs. These can be avoided with Air Slide, although this becomes more difficult as Aqua falls towards the ground. At the end of the attack, the tornado increases in size and whirls around the entire arena, limiting Aqua's movements. When the Demon Tide is not using any of these attacks, Aqua should enter the tornado and bombard the Demon Tide with aerial combos until its HP is fully depleted. | |||

After the Demon Tide has been defeated at the Keyblade Graveyard, a special sequence is entered in which a new Demon Tide appears and Sora rides upon a mass of Keyblades while flying towards it. Enemies will repeatedly fly at Sora, however they can be eliminated by firing lights with {{button|triangle}}. Large projectiles cannot be destroyed and must be dodged to avoid damage. After damaging the Demon Tide with 300 lights, the [[Situation Command]] '''Union χ''' appears and will end the battle when used. | After the Demon Tide has been defeated at the Keyblade Graveyard, a special sequence is entered in which a new Demon Tide appears and Sora rides upon a mass of Keyblades while flying towards it.
