Disclaimer: Lana, '"YOU bloody little...I'll kill you!"

DraconicKeyblader, "No you won't, and I have someone for you to shift the blame onto if you do the disclaimer."

Lana, "Who?"

DraconicKeyblader, "You'll see."

Lana, "Fine. DraconicKeyblader does not own Kingdom Hearts or anything in this fic save for the plot and OCs."

DraconicKeyblader, "Now was that so hard?"

Lana, "Full of secrets, aren't you?"

DraconicKeyblader, "Yep, part of the fun."


Destiny Islands: Sea

"No, no way," Diana and Lana said in concert.

"But mom," Sora complained, "The entire Multi-verse could be at risk!"

"I don't care Sora, you've sacrificed enough. Let someone else do the saving this time."

"Mom," Riku interjected, "Sometimes individuals must sacrifice for the good of the whole."

"And where did you get that load of bull?"

Riku blushed, "From a movie. But it still apllies to the situation." The boats speed increased as they pulled away from the island. This arguement having been going on for the last fifteen minutes, with Sora and Riku making no headway against their parent's decsion.

"How much do you love your sons?" Kairi asked suddenly, eliciting a silence from the mothers, who just looked at her quizzically.

"More than anything. That's precisley why we aren't letting them go."

"Do you think the other mothers in the Multi-verse love their children as much?"

"Um, probably," Lana said as she steered the boat towards land, "But what does that have to do with this?"

"If you don't let us go, then those mothers are probably going to lose their children. Or worse, watch them become Heartless. Our Keyblades are the only thing that can truly stop them, and if we don't go, they will decimate the Multi-verse. And then they will come here. Do you want the lives of all these people on your heads?"

Sora stared at Kairi in surprise as she sat down, grinning happily, "Where did you learn how to argue like that?"

"Who do you think was captian of the debate team before Selphie?" The redhead replied mischievously.

"You just keep surprising me," Sora answered with a shake of the head.

Kairi fluttered her eyelashes, "Is that a good thing?"

"PG you guys, let's keep it PG here," Riku interjected as Sora desperately tried to push him out of the boat.

"She does raise a good point," Diana said haltingly. She turned to Riku," Will you promise me something?"

"Sure. Anything mom," he answered quickly.

"If you go, promise me you will come back in one piece."

Riku's smile went from ear to ear, "It's a deal."

Sora turned to his mother, hope written on his features at his friend's victory, "So can I go?"

"No."

"But!"

"No buts Sora, you can go with Riku and Kairi to say goodbye, but you are staying here. And that is my final decsions."

Sora sat down in a huff, "Fine."

"Um, Lana," Kairi began, "Since me and my parents aren't on very good terms right now, can I crash with you and Sora?"

"Of course Kairi, our couch is always open to you."

"Thanks," she whispered covertly to Sora now, "I'll work on her until we have to go."

"You're the best Kair," he whispered back.

"Tell me something I don't know."


DraconicKeyblader, "So that's the chap...um, Lana, why are you holding that rolling pin?"

Lana, "No reason, could you come over here for a sec?"

DraconicKeyblader, "Uhhhh....Ahhhhhh!"
