" Now, whats the leader's job?" A middle aged man asked a young boy, his dark brown eyes shinning happily. A white haired middle aged girl folded her arms behind her head.
" Give them a break, Bael. This game's pretty self explanatory." The snow haired girl sighed. " I don't see why we have to leave though..."
" We agreed when Noa and Saxs retired, we would hand off our party to our children. You seemed happiest with that thought, Heather." Bael frowned, his blonde hair swaying due to the motion in the ever so slight breeze.
" But that was thirty years ago! Now... it just seems like it all went by too quickly..." Heather sighed as she clutched her heart with a fist. " I'm not... I'm not ready to say goodbye yet."
" Time will never stop." Tenshi, a girl of the same age as Bael sighed, brushing her light brown hair with her manicured nails. " We all knew this was gonna happen one day."
Heather sighed in defeat as she looked at the old, cobblestone mansion. Children were running about, claiming the already vacant rooms. All sources of group photos and priceless, materialistic items were no where to be found. It looked... empty in a way. Yet, it still filled with so much love and memories.
" Greetings to you, Milady Scarlet." One boy bowed to a girl, the girl giggling and curtsying.
" As to you, Milord Jason."
Maya smirked at the kids words, her turquoise eyes filling with tears. " At least they got that part right..." The brunette breathed. As soon as the words left her mouth, Ravens, a maiden with light purple hair and blue eyes emerged from the kitchen, Noora, a girl with brown hair and soft blue eyes following. They both were carrying large cardboard boxes.
" This is the last of it." Ravens sighed, setting it down on a table. Bael smiled softly.
" Then its time for us to go," He said. " C'mon, Noa and Saxs are waiting on the other side."
" I can't believe even at 65, he's still the biggest perv anyone could ask for." Maya crossed her arms with a sigh and shook her head. "He's hopeless..."
Heather giggled and followed the group outside, Bael preparing his keyblade to travel to the real world. Even if all past experiences told her it was best not to-she couldn't help it. She turned the heel of her boot and gave one last look at the mansion.
" This place..." She mumbled, tears staining her eyes. At this point, Bael had summoned the portal and turned back to her. "We made a lot of memories here, haven't we?"
" We have."
" L-like that time I broke the stove... and when Maru wanted to kill Rem! Oh and Saxs, he always drowned in the pool when he saw us in our swim suits..." At this point, Heather was rambling. " What was it he used to say? ...blub blub blub?"
" We'll make more."
" But what if we don't?! What if we never see each other again? Not just you, but Tenshi, and Rem and Noa and Maya and Saxs and Maru and Ravens and and-"
" We'll see each other again. If kingdom hearts has taught us anything, its that our hearts are connected right?" Bael smiled deeply and tapped on Heather's chest. " We'll find each other one day, whether it be a couple years from now, or a decade. I promise." Heather sighed a shaky sigh, holding her emotions back as tears pricked her eyes.
" ...Fine. Well then, farewell... Bael." Heather suppressed a shaky smile and put her feet on auto pilot, forcing herself through the portal. Bael smiled, tears streaming down his cheeks now that he was alone.
" Farewell, Heather. Farewell, Everyone. Farewell, Heavens knights." He walked through the portal.
This party has had its ups and downs, its good and bad, yet even then, we've all stuck together like a family. I've made a lot of memories in this party, we've been on a lot of adventures. Thinking back... these experiences are what made me, me.
