Aqua fought Terra-Xehanort, and tried to save his heart, but she failed, and got trapped in the Realm of Darkness, where she wandered for a decade until she was found by King Mickey, who requested her help to open the door between the realms of light and darkness.

After the battle, Ventus' heart was damaged beyond repair, and Aqua took him to the ruins of the Land of Departure, where Aqua locked him up to protect him from Xehanort, who had taken over Terra's body. Aqua was forced to fight Vanitas, who had taken control of Ventus' body. Aqua was assigned to go after Ventus, while also keeping an eye on Terra's darkness-infected heart.Īfter travelling through many worlds while fighting the Unversed, Aqua found out that Xehanort wanted to take control of Terra's body and use Ventus' heart in order to create the χ-blade, a weapon with a power equal to that of Kingdom Hearts. The day after the exam, Terra left the Land of Departure in order to eliminate the threat of the Unversed, and Ventus followed him without Eraqus' permission. This turned out to be the case for Terra, who failed the exam, while Aqua was able to pass and become a Keyblade Master. When the time to take the Mark of Mastery exam came, they received a visit from Master Xehanort, who secretly interfered with the exam in order to see if Aqua or Terra had any darkness within them.
