Here's the sequel to Our Salvation I don't own any FVII characters or KH I&II characters I also don't own the lyrics to the Evanescence song I'll be using in this chapter. (( I've decided to change the name of Cloud and Aerith's oldest daughter Sakura aka Sakka. I first named her because Card Captor Sakura sorta looks like Aerith but my character looks nothing like CCS so from now on she will be known as Terra.))
'Can you feel it?'
It was light shudder so slight so gently but so eerie, the unnatural feeling of change and of brokenness. The light shudder gradually was no longer faint, not timid it became fierce a growling vigorous tremble. You could feel the earth splitting into pieces outside the window was the horror that now became their reality could be seen. The towns had separated themselves you could see them drifting apart until they disappeared. Their cries were so loud they were frightened Aerith kissed their foreheads while Cloud had his arms around them. The tremble had stopped now Cloud helped Aerith up.
"Are you okay?"
"We're fine." He hugged her. Cloud left the room to get the babies their bottles. Roxas and Sora continued to cry.
"Shhh... Don't be afraid." They cries began to soften. "Long ago, people lived in peace, bathed in the warmth of light. Everyone loved the light. Then people began to fight over it. They wanted to keep it for themselves. And darkness was born in their hearts. The darkness spread, swallowing the light and people's hearts. It covered everything, and the world disappeared. But small fragments of light survived...in the hearts of children. With these fragments of light, children rebuilt the lost world. It's the world we live in now it was saved. But the true light sleeps, deep within the darkness. That's why the towns have scattered, divided from each other. But someday, a door to the innermost darkness will open. And the true light will return. Even in the deepest darkness, there will always be a light to guide you. Believe in the light, and the darkness will never defeat you. Your heart will shine with its power and push the darkness away." They became quiet and calm as they listened to the fairytale then they gazed at Aerith.
"So don't be afraid and don't forget." She whispered to them. Cloud entered the room and held Roxas.
"You are the one who will open the door to the light." She whispered to Sora.
Sora tossed and turned in his sleep.
"The door to light?" Sora woke up when he felt a pillow hit his face.
"Could you be any louder?" Roxas laughed when he saw Sora jump.
"I was having this dream."
"What a nightmare? You need to sleep with the light on?"
"I'm serious Roxas. I've been having these weird thoughts lately... like is any of this for real... or not?" Roxas looked at his brother in concern.
"What kinda stuff happens?" The night was silent the stars bright.
"I'm off in this place and this huge shadow is trying to attack me I have to fight it."
"Maybe dad's training is a little too hard for you maybe you should rest tomorrow." Roxas said settling back to sleep.
"Mom was telling me not to be afraid she said I was the one who would open the door to light."
"Goodnight Sora." Roxas said almost half asleep. Sora left the bedroom and found himself going towards the kitchen his mom was already awake with his twin brother and sister Infalna and Zack.
"You okay?"
"Mom... I've been having these weird dreams... I don't know if they're real they feel like I'm there sometimes."
"Sora..." Zack started crying. "Sora try and sleep I know it's hard but try and forget about the darkness. Believe in the light, and the darkness will never defeat you."
'Believe in the light.'
Zack and Infalna finally shut their eyes and let sleep carry them away. Aerith went back out to the kitchen. Cloud realising she was gone got up to look for her.
"He's started having the dreams. He'll be ready soon."
"Are you worried about him?"
"No he'll be fine. Right?" She was worried he hugged her tightly.
"He's going to be alright don't worry about him."
"It's not that easy."She said burying her head in his chest. She thought about everything all her thoughts merged and blended together. Time was so cruel 14 years went by so quickly too quickly. She gave birth to twins gotten married had a little girl then another set of twins. She remembered her wedding day her dress was a white satin floor length gown with embroidery designs. The satin gown had overlaid the organza that was detailed and beaded throughout. The wedding was outside Trout Lily lined the isle the flower's pedals were gently blown by the wind creating an elegant effect. The flower girl was clothed in lavender beaded embroidery dress. Her red hair was vibrant and blue eyes glistened she was excited she never knew her parents Aerith felt like a mother to Kiari. Aerith's hair was classically curled, around her neck she wore a loop drop necklace. A pearl edged veil covered her face as she gracefully walked down the pedal covered isle. Cloud stood near the alter dressed in a black tuxedo satin full black vest matching white tie. Her two boys were next to him holding a pillow each in the middle carefully placed were two golden rings. Cloud was in awe at her beauty. She approached the altar and stood next to him. He couldn't stop looking at her, this was the woman he loved.
'I Cloud take thee Aerith to be my lawfully wedded wife to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward until death do us part.'
'I Aerith take thee Cloud to be my lawfully wedded husband to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward until death do us part.' They were a close family and soon there would be a hole in it, Sora would be missing. She always told him not to be afraid but how could she say that when she was afraid? Sora would bring back the light, he had a job. He was the world's salvation.
'You are the one...who will open the door to the light.'
"Servate a periculo, servate a malefico
Servate a periculo, servate a malefico
Servate a periculo, servate a malefico
Servate a periculo, servate a malefico." The people gathered singing they were praying for Sora they knew that soon his journey would soon begin.
"So much relies on this boy. We put so much pressure and faith on him. What about his family, his mother?" Askua asked.
"We need him Askua."
"Servate a periculo."
'Save us from danger.'
"Servate a malefico."
'Save us from evil.'
Sora continued to be restless his mother's voice rang in his head.
'Even in the deepest darkness, there will always be a light to guide you. Believe in the light, and the darkness will never defeat you.'
'There will always be a light to guide you Sora.'
'Stay in the light.'
'Believe in the light.'
