They were home. After two long, long years, there was sand beneath their feet. Real sand, and that was actually the ocean lapping at their bare feet. The initial celebrations were over. Their parents had finally stopped demanding explanations inbetween smothering them in hugs and had finally sent them off to bed, happy to have their sons home. Once the houses were quiet, without even speaking to one another, they had both found their way to the little island, the one where they had spent so much time together as children, the one that now seemed so small compared to back then.
They stood side by side in silence until the shorter one finally broke the silence, his voice soft. "Is it really over...?"
The silver-haired teen held a hand out before him, silently calling his weapon to him, shaking his head slightly. "It's over for now. But I don't think it's over forever, our weapons still come to us, I think we might need them again someday."
They watched together as the keyblade disappeared from the older one's hand, a soft sigh leaving Sora's lips. He had been afraid that Riku was going to say something like that. There was another silence that wrapped around the two of them, their hands brushing together for mere seconds before their fingers laced together, both content to just stand there without the worry of anything attacking them from behind.
Again, it was Sora that broke the comfortable silence, not that it surprised either of them. The young brunette was never one to let silence go unbroken. "Now what do we do?"
A rare smile ghosted across Riku's face as he turned his head to look over at his best friend. "We get our lives back and hope everyday that we don't get called on again."
Such a simple answer for a question that was asking so many things. Typical Riku response. But, for once, Sora understood exactly what he meant, a smile crossing his face as he squeezes Riku's hand. The silence grew again, but this time it stood unbroken as the two teenagers thought over the many new beginnings that would soon be upon them.
