The World's Peace Disrupted

Author notes: I only own the idea for this story. I own nothing else relating to the story which included but aren't limited to the characters, vehicles, or summons/GFs mentioned. I don't own the rights to Kingdom Hearts, Disney, or Final Fantasy 7 or 8. They are affilates of the respected copyright owners.

This story is a Final Fantasy 8/ Kingdom Hearts Crossover. FFVIII characters (that haven't already been introduced of the Kingdom Hearts plot include Rinoa, Laguna and Griever (possibily Irvine and others If I feel like introducing them to the story.) And possibly some FF7 characters just to be fair but I don't know much about character's backgrounds. Will have to read up on them as I go along.

FYI: Disrupted- To throw into confusion or disorder. I felt this should be added just to give more meaning to the title.

I sumbitted this story because I am tired of looking for Leon (Squall) x Rinoa Heartilly KH pairings and only find CloudxLeon or otherxLeon pairings. I believe that Leon has only had his heart out for one person who happens to be Rinoa. No one else. Though in this story it seems like I favor Yuffie and Leon as a couple, I don't. She just has a sisterily attachment to him, not a physical attraction to him. Nor does he have a physical or other attraction to anyone other then Rinoa in this story. He may seem a bit emotional and huggy with Laguna but it's to be expected as I have the father (Laguna) and Leon (Son) with a close and unbreakable bond between the two of them.

I have also paired Tifa and Cloud as an implied couple. I'm not much into FF7 but have seen the movie (Advent Children) enough times to base the story of these characters similar that in which is expressed in AC.

This first part is Leon's thoughts, unbolded italized text is telepathy speech. It is used in the case of Griever 'talking' to Leon and Rinoa. The other is Raine's spirit speaking to Laguna through the bond he and she shared. She acts as his conscience when his mind is troubled.

Now, with the disclaimers and whatnot out of the way you can now read what you clicked on this title to read...


CHAPTER ONE

THE SORCERESS' RETURN

Her voice... Everytime I fell asleep her voice is there... calling out my given name... The name I turned my back on the day I was sent here... Yet somewhere in my heart, I feel that she and the others are still alive. What is the purpose of these dreams and the letters I keep recieving?

More importantly, are they real or too good to be true? I want the dreams to be more then just dreams, I pray everyday that it is her trying to get back to me. I hope I am not just living the dreams of my hopeful heart.

He sat at the of town in his usual hiding spot, away from the town's festivities, thinking and enjoying the warm breeze. He sat holding his Griever pendant in the palm of his hand, stroking it, absently, remembering the day he had told Rinoa what he called it and the day he came face to face with the real thing.

Just as he was about to lay down on his back in the tall grass he felt a small burst of energy in the air from behind him. He was startled as a pair of arms were thrown around his neck and he heard a man's panicked voice.

He quickly stood up and tried to wrenched the arms off from his neck but the person wouldn't let him go. As he fought to release himself their stomach touched his side and he was temporally stunned as his energy was sapped from him. He collasped to the ground, weakened slightly. He managed to throw the person off and ran out of his hiding spot, too drained to fight.

"Squall!!" he heard the man calling to him but he didn't recognize the voice, nor did he care. He wanted to put as much distance between him and his attackers as possible.

"Leon, what's wrong?" Yuffie asked as Leon collasped onto the floor of the cabin Yuffie and Aerith were living in.

"Someone is trying to drain me of my energy. They attacked me from behind and..." his voice trailed off as he collasped.

"Finally, Squall, we need your help." a man in a light green shirt said as he enetered the house he had seen Leon go into.

"Who are you and what have you done to Leon?" Yuffie asked putting herself between the man and Leon as he slipped in and out of consciousness.

"Please, I mean no harm. I need my son's help." the silvering dark haired man pleaded. "Something is terribly wrong with his girlfriend and her sorceress magic. It's been going out of control since the last letter she recieved from him. Please, trust me. Squall is the only one that can subdue it."

"As you can see he is no fit shape to help. No thanks to you." Yuffie said not letting the stranger get any closer to Leon with her weapon drawn in her distrust.

"It's okay, Yuffie. He's telling the truth. I called for them." they heard Merlin say as he suddenly appeared in the middle of the room with a woman in pale blue in his arms. "Leon, I believe she is in need of your assistance. Her energy has become unbalanced since the worlds have been realigned as they should be. I think the child may have something to do with it as well." he said laying the gasping and crenghing woman on the table.

"Child?" Leon asked backing away from her as she reached for him. "I don't know what you are talking about." he said looking at the pain in her chocolate colored eyes. "I will help her but not for the sake of some other man's child." he said, reluctantly placing his hands on her stomach and he screamed at the top of his lungs as most of his energy was drained from him. He broke contact and fell to the floor, unconscious, with blood trickling from his mouth and nose.

"She killed him." Yuffie said seeing Leon's motionless form on the floor. She ran over to him and propped him up.

"He's not dead. Look at his chest." Aerith pointed out as Leon's chest rose and fell ever so slightly. "Here, this should help them." she said tipping a bottle of liquid to Leon's lips then to the young woman he had helped. "They'll need to sleep it off but they should fine when they wake up."

"Easy, Squall." Leon heard a man's voice tell him as he went to set up after he finally woke up. He felt a hand on his shoulder and looked up to the owner's slate colored eyes.

"Laguna?" he asked not believing his eyes. "I've missed you." he said suddenly hugging Laguna.

"I've missed you, too, son." he said holding Leon in a fatherly embrace. They broke apart when there was a knock on the door. "I heard talking in here." Aerith said as she walked into the room with a tray of food for Leon. "How are you feeling?"

"I'm recovering." he said, still feeling really weak.

"How is she?" Laguna asked looking up at Aerith.

"She's doing better then when she when she got here but she's still has a long way to go before she and her child are no longer in danger." Aertih said sadly. "Perhaps if the child's father were to comfort her her magic would stop trying to kill the baby." she said as she set the tray of food on a table in the room.

"She doesn't know who the father is?" Leon asked as he reached for a pice of fruit on the tray.

"She claims that you are the father, Leon." Aerith said looking at him.

"I've gotten to know her, Squall. She's had only ever had eyes for you, son." he tried to reassure Leon. "She sank into a depression after the world started to fall apart. " he explained. "She had to use her Sorceress magic to keep our world from falling apart completely but it caused her powers to become unbalanced, nearly killing both her and the child. That is why we were summoned here.

"Rinoa had also been keeping in contact if that kind wizard as she is now the 'ruler' of our world. She has been keeping order among the mayham but since she only rescently discovered that she was expecting she was forced to hand her rule over temporially to find you. To help her get her magic back under control."

Leon just sat there, not sure of what to think or say. He simply looked at the ring on his ungloved hand.

"Is he awake?" they heard a slightly fatigued voice ask.

"Ms. Rinoa, you need to be resting." they heard Cloud say from the other room as the lighter of the footsteps got closer to the room Leon and the others were in.

With every step the lighter of the footsteps got the more eased Leon felt. He no longer felt fatigued. He startled when the door swung open and a blur of pale blue flew towards him.

She sobbed into his shoulder as she sat knelt on the bed next to him. Out of habit, he started stroking her hair and it made the both of them feel more relaxed and calmed.

Unknown to the couple Laguna and Aerith stepped out of the room.

Leon rested his head against the side of her face and was starting to close his eyes as Rinoa rested her head on his chest when he felt a momevement against his leg and a small burst of energy.

He looked at Rinoa when she looked at him surprised. "That's the first time I actually felt it." she said then she placed a hand on her stomach. She felt another movement. "Here." she said taking his hand by the wrist and she pressed against her stomach and they both felt the movement yet again.

She looked up at him, smiling and unable to contain himself he smiled back at her then he kissed her as he kept his hand on her stomach, no longer afraid of the child being some other man's. He held Rinoa close to him and kissed her like he had been longing to the time they were seperated.

"Things have been going smoothily here one the Keyblade Weilder put things back into order." Leon said as he gave Laguna a tour of Radiant Garden. "It's been a lot more peaceful, but Merlin and myself have been on guard, just in case. One thing I've learned from living here is that you can never completely let your guard down."

"You've changed since then..." Laguna said. "I guess it was meant to be for you, though. Leader when you were in Garden. It's almost natural that you'd be chosen to be the leader of this Garden as well."

"Yeah. That tends to be my luck." Leon said then he looked up as he heard something from behind them. He drew his gunblade when he saw a montrous creature landing on the ground then it started running towards them.

"It's okay. He's on our side. Rinoa broke the spell on Ultimecia had on him." Laguna told him as he placed a hand on Leon's forearm then reached out a hand to the beast. "Odd though. She usually doesn't him loose unless..."

Laguna stopped talking as Leon fell to his knees, holding his stomach.

"Someone has kidnapped her." He groaned in his pain. "They're torturing her and the child."

'She was taken away by some hooded figures. She managed to summon me just before they disappeared, Master.' Leon heard a voice in his head tell him. 'If anything were to happen to her or the child then it would be my fault. I failed to respond to Mistress' Summon right when she called for me.'

Leon looked up and saw the creature looking right at him. "Do you think you can find her?" he asked, still doubled over in pain. The giant creature nodded at Leon then crouched next to him. Getting the hint Leon pulled himself onto the creature's back and gently postion his feet against the creature's sides.

"Laguna, can you alert the others? I'll call if I need backup." he said, still clenching his teeth in pain as he felt Rinoa's pain through their 'connection'.

"But..." Laguna started to protest but Leon and the winged beast were already gone. "Sir Laguna! Where's Leon?" Yuffie asked running up to where Laguna was standing. "Gone. He and Griever just left to find the men who kidnapped his wife." Laguna said, feeling helpless wondering where his son got such a reckless streak from. "Best make peperations for battle. He said he'd call when he needed our help."

"Malificent, I can't touch her. Her child keeps fighting. It zaps me everytime I try to contain her magic." Pete whined, nursing his injured hand.

"My husband will get me out of this." Rinoa said as she fought despritly to control her Sorceress magic but the baby's stressing along being away from her husband for so long wasn't helping matters any.

After almost an hour of hearing Pete's complaints of getting zapped Malificent decided to take matters into her own hands. Rinoa screamed at the top of her lungs as Malificent pressed her forked staff to her abdomen, draining her and the baby of their energy.

"You're killing it. Please. Stop." she sobbed as she felt her baby fighting and cringing from being drained of its energy. Rinoa bit down on her bottom lip as she was stabbed by Malificent's staff as she latter was startled out of her concentration when the doors to the dungeon flew open. These was a flash and the sound of Pete howling in pain amongst the confusion.

"Imbecile!!" was the last thing Rinoa heard before she fainted. As she fell from where she had been strapped up to the wall she felt a pair of arms gently grab a hold of her. She knew it was Leon as she felt the baby start to regain a little bit of its lost energy.

"Griever." she heard Leon say. "Return to your dormant state. You need the rest. I can carry her back. It shouldn't be a problem."

'Yes, master.' Griever told him telepathically then it went into the Griever pendant that rested against Leon's chest. Once the creature was in its dormant state Leon felt some of his own energy return. He helped Rinoa onto his back, which wasn't an easy feat without hurting her or the baby. He managed to carry her out of the dungeon and through the castle but the stairs along with the frequent battles on the way out wore him out.

"We'll get it from here, Leon." he heard a familiar voice tell him. He looked up and saw Sora, Donald, Goofy and Cid in an oddly familiar red dragon shaped aircraft which was poileted by Cid.

"The King sent us to find you after Merlin talked to him." he heard Goofy say as he lay Rinoa down on a nearby bed.

"I was too late. That witch managed to steal some of Rinoa's Sorceress magic." Leon said as he laid Rinoa on a laid out bed as she slept.

"That's the Sorceress the King sent us after?" Sora asked looking at Rinoa sleeping peacefully.

"Yes. She's my wife." Leon said as he combed his fingers through Rinoa's hair causing her to smile in her sleep. "I think Malificent wanted Rinoa's energy but in order to do that she'd have to kill the child." he said resting his head next to hers as he was thoughly exhausted as well.

"We're going to have to keep her under close watch so she's not kidnapped again. I don't think Malificent got enough of the Sorceress' powers to use against us but we can't make her an easy target, either." Mickey said as Aerith tended to Leon and Rinoa. "I gave them another one of my speciality potions. They should be able to recover faster now."

"What about her wounds, Aerith?" Cloud asked from where he sat.

"She's mending fine. With Leon by her side, she is safe." smiled Aerith kindly to Cloud then she went out to start watering her flower collection in the backyard.

"Wouldn't it be safer to just take them back to our world?" Laguna asked as he watched and listened to the friends' conversation.

"The other worlds could be in danger if we to allow that portal to be opened again." Merlin said looking at Laguna gravely.

"I know you're worried about your son and unborn grandchild, Sir Laguna. But it is vital to maintain the worlds balance as much as possible. Otherwise it could cause a chain reaction, causing chaos among the worlds." Merlin said looking at Laguna.

Laguna looked at the sleeping couple then nodded his head, smiling.

'Do not friet, my love. You are in capable hands.' Laguna heard Raine's voice say as he felt the ghost of her petite hand rest upon his jaw. 'You and our family will be safe here. I'll by trying to keep the sorceress's magic under control. But as I am but a spirit that resides within our future grandchild i can only do so much.'

Laguna closed his eyes then he placed one hand on his jaw where he felt one of the hands then he put his other hand over his heart, visualizing Raine standing there with him. 'I've missed you, Raine. There's not a day that goes by that I don't hate myself for what I did to you. What you had to go through because of me.' he thought, knowing the voice could hear him. 'I wanted to be there when our child was born. I was devistated to find out that you died because of me.'

'Laguna, please. Don't beat yourself up about it. It wasn't your fault that I died. I could never blame you for my death. It was just my time to go. Don't let my death keep you from moving on.' she told him, lovingly. 'You have more important things to do then to worry yourself to an early grave. Our son will need your help when his child is born. He will need you to take up your role as his father to get him and his wife through the difficult times that lie in store for them. He has my stubborn streak, but his intentions are always the best. Try talking to him sometime. Let him know that you're there for him and his growing family, no matter what. I think you'll be surprised as to how much he'll open up, if you give him the chance.' she said then she leaned and kissed him on the cheek. 'Take care of them, Laguna. They have a vital part that is yet to be bestoyed upon them.' she said then her spirit disappeared.

"I felt her presence." he heard Leon say when he opened his eyes. He looked around and saw Leon laying next to Rinoa, watching him from where he sat in a chair next to the bed. They both looked when the door cracked open, filling the darkened room with light pouring into the main room of the cabin.

"I'm sorry. Am I interupting something?" Tifa asked, mainly looking at Laguna.

Laguna noticed that the question was aimed at him and he saw her looking at his face. He lifted a hand and felt tearstreaks on his cheeks. "I'm fine. Just got caught up in my memories." he told her, drying his face with his shirt sleeve.

"Dinner is ready, if you're hungry." she told them then she left the room.

"I'll get her, you go ahead, Dad." Leon said startling Laguna a minute as he had never called him 'dad' before.
Nodding his head, he smiled then as he walked out of the room he heard Leon coaxing Rinoa awake. "Rinoa, dinner's ready." he said softly as he placed a hand on her shoulder.

She woke and stretched, then looked at him to see him smiling at her. "I miss seeing you smile." she said lifting her hand to his lips. "Ohh." she said as her stomach started growling from the smell of the food that was being carried into the room by a gentle breeze flowing through the house.

He smiles broader then he kisses her lips, breifily. "Let's get you something to eat." he said then placed a hand on her stomach and felt a small jolt of energy but he was now used to and figured it was the baby's way of identifying him.

"I guess that would be nice. It smells so good." she said then she sat up in the bed. Leon climbed over the edge of the bed then he held a hand out for her to take and pull herself off the bed better. "I think it might be twins." she said putting her free hand onto her stomach as she felt Leon drape an arm across her back to help her steady herself as she had been having problems with fainting spells when she went to stand or walk without him there as a crutch. She smiled up at him and rested her head on his shoulder when she felt his hand rest on top of hers that rested on her stomach.

He smiled contently, kissed the crown of her head then they walked out of the room together.

When they walked into the kitchen they saw some two new yet familar faces at the table.
