Hmmm... I wonder what today's title is an omen of... Do you suppose it could it be the dark secrets that are Xion's gender and Keybearer-ness? Er... nope, because they're both revealed blatantly in the instruction booklet. Way to pull off "The Reveal", Squendis!</sarcasm> If you can't fathom that weird word, look it up in the Glossary.
Hmmm... I wonder what today's title is an omen of... Do you suppose it could it be the dark and closely-guarded secrets that are Xion's gender and Keybearer-ness? Er... nope, because they're both revealed blatantly in the instruction booklet. Way to pull off "The Reveal", Squendis!</sarcasm> If you can't fathom that weird word, look it up in the Glossary.


Anyway, as Roxas arrives in the Grey Area this fine morning, Xion seems to struggle for a moment before she greets him. This cosy little scene is immediately interrupted by old X-face, who wants to send you off to deal with a '''Bigass Heartless'''&trade;. A tutorial on Unit Panels ensues, after which you should talk to Xaldin for a free Moonstone. When you talk to Saïx, he informs you that you are finally to be rewarded with extra Panel Slots... but not until after the mission! Fat lot of good that is, eh? We're going to take on a '''Bigass Heartless'''&trade;, and we get something we can use to better prepare ourselves ''afterwards!?'' Pfft, he has no logistical sense at all. After the predictable tutorial on Panel Slots, the mission menu opens, and you can set off. Just check your panels first, though. You really want to obey the intel and equip Block if you removed it previously.
Anyway, as Roxas arrives in the Grey Area at the beginning of this fine day, Xion seems to struggle for a moment before she says "Good morning" to him. This cosy little scene is almost immediately interrupted by old X-face, who wants to send you off to deal with a '''Bigass Heartless'''&trade;. A tutorial on Unit Panels ensues, after which you should talk to Xaldin for a free Moonstone. When you talk to Saïx, he informs you that you are finally to be rewarded with extra Panel Slots... but not until after the mission! Fat lot of good that is, eh? We're going to take on a '''Bigass Heartless'''&trade;, and we get something we can use to better prepare ourselves ''afterwards!?'' Pfft, he has no logistical sense at all. After the predictable tutorial on Panel Slots, the mission menu opens, and you can set off. Just check your panels first, though. You really want to obey the intel and equip Block if you removed it previously.


Basically, from now on, every single mission rewards you with a Slot Releaser when completed. For some peculiar reason, they aren't listed under the missions' "Clear Rewards", but rest assured, you do get them. 15 slots to begin with, 80 from missions, and the remaining 25 are all obtained from the Moogle Shop, as you will see later on.
Basically, from now on, every single mission rewards you with a Slot Releaser when completed. They are listed under your "Obtained Items" instead of the "Clear Rewards" after a mission, which I suspect is to prevent complications with the bonus gauge multiplying your Clear Rewards. You have 15 slots to begin with, you unlock an additional 80 by clearing all of the missions, a couple are found in treasure chests, and the remaining few are obtained from the Moogle Shop, as you'll see later.

[[Image:Darkside.png|thumb|right|150px|A '''Bigass Heartless'''&trade;]]Once again, we begin in the Side Street. The target is lurking in Station Plaza, but before you can set out, Xion lowers her hood. Yes, she's female, and looks just like Kairi but with black hair. Hah! That should keep you guessing, foolish players! I don't know why Roxas and Axel seem so surprised when they discover that Xion's a girl. After all, unlike us (we haven't heard her VA yet) they'll have heard her voice, which is quite clearly female. Anyway, it's about time we discussed the mission, yes? As you proceed uphill, you'll run into the usual common-or-garden Heartless. No worries. In Station Heights, there's a chest downhill, but your goal lies at the summit. Enter Station Plaza and proceed towards the far end, whereupon the [[Darkside]] appears behind you.


Your immediate priority is to open the chest lurking in the northeast corner of Station Plaza, as this is another auto-RTC mission. That done, start attacking your mark. The Darkside has a lot of easily countered attack patterns, so there's no real danger as long as you react accordingly to the cues it gives you. The following table has all the information you could possibly need to take down the '''Bigass Heartless'''&trade;:
{|border=1 cellpadding=2 cellspacing=1 width=100% align="center" style="font-size:11px;text-align:center"
!bgcolor=#c0c0c0 align="center" style="font-size:12px"|Attack!!bgcolor=#c0c0c0 align="center" style="font-size:12px"|Cues!!bgcolor=#c0c0c0 align="center" style="font-size:12px"|Response
|-
|Shadow summon||Rears back right arm, then plunges it into the ground||Target and attack the head while it is lowered
|-
|Shockwave punch||Rears back right arm, "charging" sound is heard||Jump over the subsequent shockwave
|-
|Energy orbs||Kneels down on the ground and gathers energy||Stand back a little and Block the energy orbs
|-
|colspan=3|The energy orb attack is immediately followed by a second shockwave punch, this time without the usual "charging" sound cue
|-
|rowspan=2|Dark orb rain||Leans down, raises left arm and punches into the ground||Jump over the extremely fast shockwave
|-
|Follows previous; lifts a glowing orb from underground||Keep moving to avoid falling dark orbs
|}
After the dark orb rain, the Darkside repeats the cycle from the beginning. You can generally ignore the Shadows summoned in the first attack, as you'll spend so much time either running around or in the air next to the Darkside's hands and head that they have little chance to attack you, and they're not much of a threat even if thay do manage to hit you. Hits landed on the Darkside's head do more damage than those landed on the hands, and aiming Fire magic at the head is a useful strategy.


After you defeat the '''Bigass Heartless'''&trade;, it lashes out at Roxas and his Keyblade is sent spinning away. Xion picks it up and finishes off the Darkside, apparently as surprised as Roxas that she can use it. Roxas congratulates her, saying she deseres something extra. No, not like ''that'', you perverts! He takes her up to the top of the clock tower and gives her an ice cream, obviously. Xion asks him how he found such an awesome hangout, and he eventually replies that "Axel took [him] here" on Day 1. This phrasing is extremely poor grammar (it should, of course, be "brought" instead of "took"). Either than, or it's extremely suggestive of sexual activity... <small>Dammit, yaoi f&aelig;ries! Go away!</small> Seriously bad choice of wording there, Squendis! Xion remarks upon Roxas and Axel's friendship, and asks if she can be their friend too. Roxas says he'll ask Axel when the latter returns from C.O.


That, dear readers, concludes Section II. Tune in next time for Section III!
