Please Note:
Master Xehanort will refer to the old Xehanort and Xehanort the Apprentice will refer to the second Xehanort.

BIRTH BY SLEEP
Part 1: Overview
Birth by Sleep is the title of the upcoming PSP game in the Kingdom Hearts series, telling the story of three new Keybearers who must track down Master Xehanort, an old man who shares the name of Ansem the Wise's apprentice.
Let's begin with my idea of the trio. We especially know that Terra and Ven are connected to Riku and Sora, but how? We see both of them on the Destiny Islands, but where in the game, we don't know. Did they originate their? Or is this the end?
Terra, Ven, and Aqua are apprentices of a Keyblade Master unknown as of now, and are sent on a mission to find another master, Xehanort, along with his apprentice, who I will refer to as Dark Soldier.
Master Xehanort appears as an old man, but in clothing similar to Ansem (reffering to the Apprentice Xehanort's Heartless). His goal is "Kingdom Hearts" and is interested in the "Hearts of Pure Light".
Part 2: Terra, Ven, and Aqua
Terra: He seems to be the oldest, and strongest of the three, making him the "leader" on the mission. Terra was also interested in the "hearts of pure lights" and in all the pictures or trailers with Terra confronting Master Xehanort, he says "I have a friend," or "What have you done to his heart?" (See Part 3). Ven, Aqua, and Terra believed that they should too search for hearts of pure light, believing that Master Xehanort will appear. But something happens to Terra:
Aqua: "I'll ask again."
Aqua: "Was what you said to Ven a lie?"
Maleficent: "It was all true."
Maleficent: "Terra succumbs to darkness in order to gain power."
Aqua: "Get out of here!"
This means Terra either joined the side of darkness, or pretended to. I believe Terra didn't join the darkness for power, but needed it, or thought he did, to help someone...Ven. (See Part 3)
Ven: He seems to be the youngest and doesn't know as much about the Keyblade. He resembles Roxas, Sora's Nobody. Master Xehanort also met Ven in the Olympus Colliseum. He either didn't know it was Master Xehanort, or forgot.
(Ven turns to see MX)
Ven: Who Are You
(Eyes widen)
MX: Seems that your loosing it
MX: However, you haven't lost it perminantly
MX: However, the only way to obtain it, give up. Now Recover Everything
What does this mean?
These are my theories on ven:
1) Ven lost his memories of his past, and must surrendor to MX to recieve them, supposedly.
2) Ven lost the ability to weild the Keyblade, but he could still return it. (See Part 3)
I go with theory number 2.
Aqua: The only woman in the trio, and her role is unknown. She seems to have a care-free heart, seen dancing infront of the castle. Aqua is wise, which interviews say you can tell by her voice. She cares about Ven and Aqua deeply.
Part 3: The Meaning of Birth, Awakening, and Unbirths
Birth by Sleep may mean many things, with the true meaning unknown.
My idea is the birth of a Keyblade Master. Here's why. Sora became the Keyblade Master after the events of "The Awakening," similar to Roxas. Sora's ability to weild the Keyblade was "sleeping" and once "awakened," he becomes a Keyblade Master. So what is an Unbirth? Un is a prefix meaning not, or opposite of. Un-birth, opposite of birth. If Birth by Sleep means to recieve the ability to become a Keyblade Master, than an unbirth is an ex-keyblade master, one who lost the ability to weild. I think that the emptyness from loosing the Keyblade grows, and consumes him. Tie it in to what I said about Ven, and it makes sense. We know he wasn't the strongest of the three, and he lost "Something," so maybe it really means that he is "Loosing" it, the power of the Keyblade. Now, Terra says "What have you done to his heart?" He is reffering to Ven most likely. Whether he pretends to side with darkness, or really is siding to help Ven (similar to Riku helping Kairi), he might be searching for a sort of "cure." Otherwise, Malificent is lying.
Part 4: Master Xehanort, Dark Soldier, and Terra
Master Xehanort and the Dark Soldier left, with one of their goals to search for hearts of pure light. One of the biggest mysteries is "Why does Master Xehanort have the same name as Apprentice Xehanort?" Birth by Sleep is supposed to be about Xehanort's forgotten memories. So could this mean Apprentice Xehanort is really someone else using the same name? Or maybe, he is one of the trio, or somehow the same entity as Master Xehanort.
Master Xehanort is supposedly the enemy who's mistake needs to be corrected by Terra, as he says in one of the trailers. What is this mistake, and why Terra? Terra and Master Xehanort are seen a few times together. And I think Terra is siding with Xehanort, because he knows how to help Ven, or so he makes Terra believe.
And what about Dark Soldier, who or what is he? I think he is the darkness in Terra born.
Part 5: Erasure
"Your my friend right. So I ask you one thing...erase me."
The last line in the TGS trailer. Ven says this in the presence of someone on the Destiny Islands. Why does he want to be erased. Something bad must have happened. Ven was friends with Terra. And if Terra does join the darkness, or is consumed by it, then Ven might feel responsible. Or maybe something happened to Aqua. And what does "erase" mean? I doubt its wiping someone with the pencil eraser. To destroy him, or make him just disappear. Who can, and why?
Part 6: Chasers
Forgot about the Chasers? What or who are they? I believe they are chasing something, hense the name. I believe they are chasing Master Xehanort for the Hearts of Pure Light, or an organization with the same goal that includes Master Xehanort.
Part 7: The Event of Radiant Gardens, Xehanort the Apprentice and Kairi
Xehanort was found on the streets of Ansem's castle without a single memory. Who is he really. Is he Master Xehanort? or is he Terra? Neither. I believe Master Xehanort is the Dark Soldier, who is part of Terra.
What does Master Xehanort have to do with Kairi? She is the seventh princess of hearts. She is the last "Heart of Pure Light." If Master Xehanort was searching for the princesses, that means he needed Kairi. And she was in Ansem's castle, so she is connected to him somehow. So if Master Xehanort knew Ansem the Wise, then Ansem knew MX needed Kairi. So he sends her to the Destiny Islands.
Part 8: Basic Summary
Master Xehanort, part of a group known as the "Chasers" are searching for several things, including the Princesses of Hearts, and obviously the heart of all worlds, Kingdom Hearts. Terra, Ven, and Aqua, who are learning the way of the Keyblade Master, are sent to search for Master Xehanort and his apprentice, the Dark Soldier, who is Terra's darkness. The enemies are unbirths, those who lost the power of the Keyblade forever. That is why Sunset Horizon is filled with Keyblades.
Ven is getting weaker as a Keyblade master, and soon learns he will become an Unbirth if he doesn't do anything, and Terra needs to help him. Terra joins Master Xehanort, and slowly gets manipulated by darkness, unaware of this, to save Ven. In the end, he realizes that Master Xehanort was just using him so his plan would be complete, just being a toy. They battle one last time, and Terra and Dark Soldier merge into one being. That one being is found at Ansem's castle, without a single memory of Terra or Dark Soldier, except for "Xehanort." Ansem was somehow involved with all of this, and sent Kairi right before Master Xehanort would find her, to the Destiny Islands, a small world almost impossible to find. For he also knew that the true Keyblade Master would find her somehow (Sora). Ven is found on the Destiny Islands after the long battle, and asks to be erased by someone. Aqua is found by Xehanort the Apprentice, and is used as one of their experiments, creating the first Heartless.
Master Xehanort will refer to the old Xehanort and Xehanort the Apprentice will refer to the second Xehanort.
