Home

How long had it been since he had seen this place? Really seen this place. Not just some illusion created by Xehanort or The Organization. It had been two, maybe three years. And now here he was. He was home. Really home.

There was his house. He wondered how worried his parents would be. Would they still be living here?

Kairi said they hadn't moved. He found that surprising. He thought the hurt of his possible death would be too much pain. And he knew his family had the money to move if they wanted to.

Did Kairi tell them what happened? Did his parents already know about the Keyblade and what his heroics were? Did they know he saved the universe?

Probably not without proof. And Kairi had none. They probably thought she was kidnapped and driven insane. The only evidence she had was the fact she disappeared during the storm before everything was destroyed.

Do you think they remember the destruction? Maybe it was like that book Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. They just wake up right where they were when they blew up, none the wiser except for one missing person. In this case two.

What would they think of Mickey, Goofy and Donald? It's not often you find a humanoid dog who beats people bad guys with a shield, a humanoid duck that's a wizard, and a humanoid mouse who also wields a magic weapon and is a king. But at least it would be proof.

"Do you want us to stay outside for the reunion, wait until you give us a signal?" Mickey asked, "Give you and your parents some time to let it all out?"

Sora nodded. He needed this time. It had been years since he'd seen them. Slowly he stepped towards the door. His hand grasped the handle. He took a deep breath before sliding the door open.

"Mom! Dad! I'm home!"
