Luckily, Aqua had an easier time slipping through the crowd. This did not, however, mean that she had any idea of where exactly he was going and she was left with simply doing her best to stay approximately parallel to where he was going.

If she'd heard what Sora had been intending to get, she might have been able to guess at which deck he was going to. But really that shouldn't matter as long as she kept him in sight. Hopefully the steps would keep him from getting away too fast. Hopefully.
