Years Ago
Destiny Islands an island in the ocean of the Kingdom of Enchancia, a visiting young woman who was a Keyblade Master by the name of Aqua was watching two young boys called Riku and Sora racing. The younger a brown haired boy by the name of Sora had reminded her of her friend Ven.
She had given a speech to Sora telling him to watch out for his friend Riku just in case he goes down a dark path. Before she left she then spotted Sora going to a hut where there was a gravestone. He was kneeling down at it and Aqua once walking over read that the tombstone was for a loving husband and father called 'Birk Balthazar'. She could easily put two and two together.
"From the time on the tombstone, it looks like it wasn't long before your father passed away." Aqua told him softly looking at him sympathetically.
Sora was looking a bit sad and said "Mum says he will never truly be gone as long as we keep him in our hearts. My sister Sofia was born a week ago and she will never get to meet dad..."
Aqua gave a sigh knowing it was not an easy time for him to go through. "That will always be true, loss will never be easy but don't let it consume you too much Sora." Aqua told Sora and smiled.
Aqua said goodbye to Sora as she left in a portal and Sora went inside the hut. His mother Miranda had been watching ever since she spotted Aqua approaching Sora and Riku. She was scared to see a stranger approach them but she was amazed by the speeches she had given him.
She thought about inviting her over but she had disappeared. Sora said hello to his mum and smiled at baby Sofia in her crib.
Miranda thought about how with the savings she and Birk had saved up, they would be moving to a village called Dunwiddie in Enchancia which was not far from where the Royal family lived in their palace. She had bought a place to open up a shoe shop. She also wanted to make sure Sora would get to spend time with his friends on Destiny Islands, times where he would stay with an old friend of Birk who they made Sora's godmother.
Present Day
Sora thought about when it all started on Destiny Island, he was best friends with Riku and Kairi who thought about building a raft together to sail the seas. Riku was always a bit jealous of Sora getting to live and see life on the Islands when he was staying with his mother in Dunwiddie. It was during this time in one of the visits where he had first encountered the Heartless and went on his first adventure.
Now he was a wielder of the Keyblade learning with Riku at Disney Castle, but he could not help but miss his mother and younger sister Sofia since it was before his first adventure when he last saw them.
He hadn't seen his mother and sister in quite a long while, they usually shared letters when they could since due to how far away from the lsland was despite still technically being part of Enchancia. It was because of this distance they couldn't come to the Island when they wanted and it took some time for him to reach there. But he got presents for his 15th and he sent those letters and presents for the special occasions as well.
He decided he wanted to make a decision and he knew what that decision was.
He sighed as he decided to enter a hall in the Disney Castle and greeted King Mickey who was already giving lessons to Riku. There was also Yen Sid, Kairi and the three fairies Flora, Fauna and Mayweather. "Your highness, I am sorry for interrupting but I don't suppose I could ask a favour?" Sora asked with a bow and King Mickey motioned for him to continue.
Sora asked "well you see, I know how important it is to learn how to use my Keyblade but I was wondering if I could have some time off?" There was a glare from Yen Sid but Sora coughed looking a bit scared but nonetheless continued "You see it has been a long time since I last saw my Mum and my sister so..."
"Speak no more Sora, take as much time as you need and I will call if there is an emergency. I can have Donald prepare a Gummi Ship to take you back to Destiny Islands." King Mickey told him with a smile stepping of his throne.
"Thanks your majesty and that's great but they don't live on the Island, i was staying there with my godmother." Sora explained and King Mickey apologised for the misunderstanding.
"They live in a village called Dunwiddie and Sora told me they run a shoe shop." Kairi explained and there were eyes widening from the three fairies.
"Pardon us for interrupting but can we ask the name of your sister and if you know your mother's name?" Flora asked to the confusion of the others.
"Well my sister is called Sofia and I think my mum is named Miranda, why do you ask?" Sora explained to further widening of their eyes. They then huddled together.
"I didn't know Princess Sofia had an older brother and Queen Miranda never mentioned having an older son..." muttered Fauna.
"Should we tell him?" asked Flora unsure what to do.
"Let's let it be a surprise for him." Merryweather suggested and they agreed. They just said that they were just curious.
After Sora left Yen Sid faced the three fairies and told them "I can tell you are keeping a secret from him, he might not be happy about it when he finds out you kept something he should have known from him beforehand." The three fairies smiled and asked it would be better for him to have it be a surprise.
The Next Day
Riku and Kairi were there to say goodbye when Sora left in the Gummi Ship with Donald. They arrived at the Dunwiddie Village and Sora exited with his backpack looking excited as he recognised the buildings around him. He said goodbye to Donald as the Ship left and Sora entered the entrance of the Village.
Some of the villagers heard noises and were spotted Sora coming through the entrance. Some of them recognised Sora and waved to him and he waved back. He whistled as he ran excited to his mother's shoe shop.
He paused when he saw a sign on the door saying it was closed down. Feeling a bit worried a knocked on the door, after a couple of minutes waiting he tried knocking again several times but no sound.
"Mum, are you in there?" Sora shouted as he looked through the window and saw nothing in the inside of them, as if no one had been there in years. He felt a bit guilty wondering if his mum had to close the shop due to lack of business then he should have been there to help.
He had no time to think of this as he heard a voice say "Sora, is that you? My have you grown." He turned around and saw smiling at him was a woman he recognised as Mrs Hanshaw the mother of one of Sofia's friends Ruby as well as the scout master of Sofia's Buttercup Scout Troop.
"Nice to meet you again too Mrs Hanshaw, do you know where mum or Sofia are?" Sora asked and was confused when Mrs Hanshaw giggled.
"I am guessing you didn't get the news. All I am going to say is that you can find them at the Royal Palace." Mrs Hanshaw told him as she said goodbye to him.
Sora calmed down a bit, so his mum must have gotten a job at the palace then. He then groaned as he realised it would take quite a long time to trek up there. "Well better get a heard start then..." Sora muttered walking to the road that would take him out the village.
After only ten minutes of walking up the road he was already getting a bit tired. He was telling himself he should be able to handle this due to having gone through a lot since he first got the Keyblade.
Fortunately he came across a travelling carriage who offered him to take him to the palace when he explained he was visiting his mother who may have taken a job there. The carriage ride made things a lot easier and after some rest they made it to the palace.
He thanked the driver and made his way up the steps to the palace. He didn't know the Queen was looking down from the balcony and gasped when she recognised Sora going up the steps. She had then rushed down the stairs to greet him at the door.
Before Sora could knock the door opened and Sora gasped when he saw his mum Miranda at the door wearing a royal gown and a tiara on her head. No time to think of that as Miranda enveloped him into a big hug. "It's been too long Sora." Miranda told him with tears in her eyes as she let go and motioned him to go inside.
"It has been mum; I have a lot to tell you." Sora told her and she smiled saying there was a lot she would have to tell him as well. He was about to ask what was with her dress when he saw a man with a crown on his head accompanied by a grey haired servant with glasses.
"King Roland, your highness." Sora said kneeling before him, he may not have spent a lot of time in Dunwiddie but he knew the image of King Roland II. Miranda got Sora up telling him he didn't have to do that to him.
"Miranda, can I ask who this young man is?" King Roland asked and Miranda smiled at him and the servant.
"Roland honey, Sofia and I should have told you about him long ago. He was staying with family friends before but this is Sora my firstborn." Miranda introduced to the shock and surprise of King Roland and the servant.
Sora was a bit confused by how his mother addressed the King but then he caught on the match between that and the gown and tiara his mum wore. "Yes Sora, sorry you had to learn like this but King Roland is your stepdad." Miranda told him and Sora sighed.
"Baileywick, can you prepare some refreshments while we have some catching up to do." asked Miranda and the servant nodded as he took Sora's suitcase from him.
"Let me handle this for you Prince Sora." Baileywick told him to Sora who began protesting, not really processing that apparently in the time since he last been home his mother had married the King.
"What, I am not a prince..." Sora complained but Miranda told him to just rest as she imagined that it must have been a long journey for him.
"I will show you to the dining hall Sora and I want to welcome you to the family. We may have a lot to discuss." King Roland told Sora with a smile and Sora sighed.
This would be more complicated than he thought it would be.
I read a story where Sofia had an elder sister who was away and had a rivalry with Cedric. Plus another one where Sora and Sofia were siblings and there were games consoles involved. I couldn't find it again when I tried to search for it but if you know what it is then please tell me. I was thinking of a Sora X Elena pairing. Please tell me what you think in the reviews or comments as I plan to put this on both Fanfiction and A03. Also I have read stories where Sora was the son of Cloud and Aerith so that was a little inspiration for this.
