A/N: This is my first shot at writing a Kingdom Hearts fanfiction, so I apologize if it isn't very good or if the chapters are too short. So, if you have any suggestions or any ideas just post a review. Actually, even if you just drop by and say hello I'll be more than happy.

I just want to get this over with, but I'd consider it AU/AR. It's in a slightly more modern setting, and all the characters are alive. That's right, every single one. However, it's a continuation of what happens at the end of the second game than a completely new setting. And this will have yaoi, maybe even yuri pairings. So, if you dare to venture further, read on...

Also, this story may have more mature content in the later chapters. I haven't decided how far I want to go, but I figure I'll play it safe and put an M on my story.

The stars had twinkled brightly in the sky that night. That night was one of endings and new beginnings. Countless had fallen that night, and their path was slowing being chipped away with each finishing blow being dealt. It seemed all hope was being lost. And then, the final one fell into the abyss as the moon shone brightly in the sky. Now, they had all evaporated into the nothingness from which they had been created.

But with his last dying breath, Xemnas undid all the work they had accomplished. He hadn't a clue what sort of cataclysm might occur of his actions, he just merely did it to salvage any remaining pride he had. He may have gone down swinging, but he preferred to be the one to destroy their gateway to Kingdom Hearts then have Ansem do it. Having Ansem be the one to unwind all their work would mean having everything go in vain. If he, himself destroyed it, it would be… He didn't have the words to be able to describe it, but he was the one that had been the cause of all this, and now he would be the one to wipe all traces of this foul experiment forever.

The heart shaped moon, the gateway to Kingdom Hearts exploded, showering thousand of lights through the sky and the air. The glowing lights gently touched Xemnas' body, which was sprawled across the ground. He was awaiting death, all emotions and pain now fading away. His eyes couldn't bear to watch anymore. Everything was lost. His fellow comrades, their progress, and he wouldn't be surprised if their headquarters came crashing down.

His body was filling with a warm feeling, but one that was numbing all his senses. He knew he was going to die, his fate was inevitable. He didn't know whether he had any regrets or not left in this world. He regretted not being able to reclaim his heart, but then again, regrets were only for those that had feeling and emotions. Those that were whole…

Nobodies could not become somebodies. They were nothing, like the nothingness from which they came.

But, if he did have one last dying wish it would be that the others could continue on his legacy. It was obvious that one day he would die, After all, this whole plan was his and whoever wanted to stop him would go after him. However, it was too late to for even his dying wish to come true. He was the last one. My, how the mighty fall hard. Was that it? Would all of their work go in vain?
