Squall Leonhart: Difference between revisions

[[Donald]] and [[Goofy]] were ordered by [[King Mickey]] to go to Traverse Town to get help from Leon, as well as to seek the [[Keyblade]] wielder. Meanwhile, Leon had encountered [[Sora]] outside the [[Accessory Shop]] in the [[First District]]. Leon then remarked how the could Keyblade choose a kid like Sora, causing Sora to get angry. The two then duel, ending with Leon knocking Sora unconscious. Later, upon waking up in one of the hotel rooms, Leon and Yuffie explained to Sora about the Heartless and his destiny as the Keyblade's chosen one. At the same time in the next room, Aerith is explaining the same thing to Donald and Goofy, who were unaware that the Keyblade wielder is nearby. After Sora eventually met Donald and Goofy, Leon along with Aerith and Yuffie advised the three of them to be careful and to look out for each other before the three set out on their journey.

When Sora later returns from [[Hollow Bastion]] along with Kairi, and after listening to Sora's story on what had happened, Leon and his friends told Sora that the only way to prevent the darkness from leaking out in that world was to seal the Keyhole. Soon after Sora went back to Hollow Bastion, before sealing the Keyhole he was surprised to see Leon, Aerith and Yuffie there, who had arrived on Cid's [[Gummi ship]]. They explained to Sora that Hollow Bastion was their childhood home and that they wanted to see it again. However, all they could see is that their home was in "worse shape" than the peaceful world they were acquianted with. Before saying goodbye to Sora, they sadly told him that once he defeats [[Ansem]] and the worlds restored, they may never see him again as the walls separating the worlds would return, thus preventing interdimensional travel between them. However, Leon comforted Sora that although they may never meet again, they would never forget each other, as their hearts are connected.   

In ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', Leon is seen to be slightly more cheerful than he was in the original Kingdom Hearts, as he and others are rebuilding their home with Leon seemingly being the leader of the "[[Hollow Bastion Restoration Committee]]," which is composed of the returning Final Fantasy cameos from the first Kingdom Hearts and of Merlin. He actually fights alongside Sora in one of the fights near the beginning of the game. Sleeping Lion, a Keyblade in Kingdom Hearts II, is another reference to Squall. He also, along with many other characters, including Tifa and Cloud, help Sora fight the Heartless on the Ravine Trail in the Hollow Bastion (later named, the Radiant Garden). Leon also plays the largest role for any Final Fantasy character in Kingdom Hearts II storywise, the only Final Fantasy character that has relations to King Mickey, and works very close to Sora and company. Leon is also the only Final Fantasy character in the game to come face to face with the Organization and fight the Nobodies. He seems to be a good friend to both [[Cloud Strife]] and [[Aerith Gainsborough]].

* In the ending credits of KH2, Leon recieves a letter, presumely from Rinoa by the insigna emerging from said letter.
