'''Mission 40''' in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'' is an optional mission that has [[Roxas]] once again eliminating a group of pesky swarming [[Heartless]].

==Mission assignment==
===Summary===
''Rare Heartless called Deserters have surfaced in Olympus Coliseum. Find them, and eliminate them at once.''

===Objectives===
*''Pursue and defeat the Deserters!''
==Story summary==
Roxas once again goes after Deserters on behalf of the [[Organization XIII|Organization]].

==Mission walkthrough==
You will start out outside as usual.  The chests in the outside corners are real treasure chests, but the one against the west wall is a [[Cymbal Monkey]] in disguise, so be aware.  Whatever your choice, head into the '''Coliseum Vestibule''', and then into '''The Coliseum'''.  You don't even have to talk to [[Philoctetes|Phil]] this time around to go in.

This time with the Deserters is a little different than in previous missions; they have invited their cousins, the [[Soldier]]s, along to play.  Soldiers will keep re-spawning throughout the round, and won't stop until the Deserters stop spawning.  So unless you are in the market for a massive heart chain, don't worry about the Soldiers and focus on the Deserters.  You can choose to hit barrels into your enemies as well, but it's usually just more efficient to whack them with a decent [[Keyblade]].

Once the mission is complete, be sure to grab the well-hidden [[Ordeal Badge]] towards the southwestern corner before leaving the Coliseum to RTC; this mission really doesn't take long at all.

This should be an easy mission as magic and [[Limit Break]]s are all you need here to bring down the Deserters and get back to the entry point to RTC. Just try to keep an eye on where you are to avoid wasting time on Soldiers when using a Limit Break.
