Third Person: A groan escaped Vanitas's lips as he slowly regained consciousness. After the blissful sensation of feeling nothing for a while, being brought back to life was quite an exhausting experience. As he began the slow, aching climb to his feet, he began to notice something peculiar: His armor was missing. Well, that was easily rectified. By mental command, his armor began to knit itself back together. The only thing missing was his helmet, but that was irrelevant as there were more important things on his mind. One of those happened to be the burning question: Why was he still alive? Last thing he remembered was merging with Ventus, forging the X-Blade, and battling Ventus for control of their heart.
But once his thoughts came towards Ventus, his eyes narrowed as a lingering thought burned into his mind: He failed. Thats when anger began to build within him; Anger towards Ventus for foolishly choosing to die when they could have been whole, anger towards Aqua and the mouse for interfering, anger towards Xehanort for marching him to his faliure, and anger at himself for blindly following his orders. He was so close! Salvation was nearly in his grasp! He did everything Xehanort wanted, but he still failed! And now to add insult to injury, he was still alive and now had no purpose. What was he supposed to do?! Vanitas then took a few deep breaths to rein in his anger, lest too powerful Unversed appear.
That's when his eyes directed themselves towards the black book on the ground. He picked it up to find that the book had his name on it, which was odd as he never carried a journal. He then opened it to find that he could see people in the book and hear their voices. One particular voice happened to be Ventus. This made him smile malevolently. He was going to find Ventus, and make him pay.
