Okay, the pictures for Hikari's forms are on my Deviant Art account; surviorlaura.


My Pov

After leaving the Mysterious Tower and Twilight Town, we found there was only one world that was accessible. Hollow Bastion. We landed into the world. I was happy to be here, because I would be able to see Leon and the others. They probably thought I was lost for good. I couldn't wait to see them. I looked around and noticed how different the world looked now.

"Uh-oh. Looks like we're gonna have to do some fightin'." Goofy said. I looked in the distance to see two Solider Heartless just has they vanished. Great. We traveled through the town and ran into Donald's uncle, Scrooge McDuck.

"Oh, Uncle Scrooge!" I said. He turned around and stared at me.

"My, my! Little Hikari, is that you?" I nodded. "What a beautiful young lady you've become! I can't believe it's been ten years since I last saw you." Scrooge said.

"Uncle Scrooge, what are you doing here?" Donald asked.

"I'm tryin' to recreate my favorite old-time ice cream. I'd make millions if I just got it right..." Scrooge said. He took a taste of the ice cream bar he had in his hand, but grimaced at the flavor. "Terrible...!"

"Don't worry, you'll get it right." I said.

"Thank ya, lass. I think you should being headin' over to Merlin's house. That's where Leon and the others are at. I'm sure that they'll be overjoyed to see ya!" Scrooge said. I nodded. We headed toward Merlin's house. We came close to it when some strange sphere started popping up out of the ground.

"Hey, what's going on?" Sora asked.

"That's the town's defense mechanism." a voice said. Who was that? I looked around and happened to look up. It was Yuffie! On her shoulder was Wormmon.

"Yuffie!" I said.

"Wormmon!" Salamon said. They saw us and gasped.

"Hikari...? Salamon? Is that really you?!" Yuffie asked. I nodded. Her joy turned to fear in second. "Look out!" I turned just in time to slash at a Dusk the charged for me. Several more appeared. I actually had to switch into my Valor Form to get rid of them. I reverted after all of them had been dealt with. Yuffie jumped for where she was and tackled me in a hug. "I can't believe you're okay! Wormmon jumped on Salamon, happy to see her.

"We've missed you two so much!" Wormmon said.

"I'm sorry for worrying everyone." I said.

"Don't worry about. Everyone will be so happy to see you. I see you guys are still in top form." Yuffie said.

"What'd you expect? Looks like you're doing okay." Sora said.

"Well, what did YOU expect?"Yuffie asked.

"How are the others?" Donald asked.

"Great!" Yuffie said.

"Yuffie, have Riku or Mickey been here?" I asked. She turned and started walking.

"Nope." Yuffie said. I knew it. "But I had a feeling I'd see you guys again. Including Hikari." Yuffie said.

"'We may never meet again, but we'll never forget each other.'" Sora said. Who was he quoting?

"Is that suppose to be Leon?" Yuffie asked.

"Leon said that?" I asked.

"Yep." Sora said.

"Everyone's working on stuff at Merlin's house." Yuffie said. We followed Yuffie to where Merlin's house was now since Hollow Bastion was so different now. We got to the house, but Sora stopped me.

"Hikari, wait out here for a minute. It'd be better if you surprise everyone." Sora all thought it was a good idea. I hid to the side while everyone else went in. I heard the conversation and soon I was brought up.

"It's too bad Hikari isn't with us anymore..." Leon said.

"I hope she's in a better place now." Aerith said.

"Kid had a good heart. Her sacrifice was probably the noblest thing I've ever heard..." Cid said. Aww. They all missed me. Sora secretly signaled me from the doorway.

"Oh, you guys are so sweet." I said. Salamon and I stepped into the room and all of them looked at us wide-eyed. I smiled at them sweetly.

"Hikari!" Aerith exclaimed. She wrapped her arms around me and I hugged her back. Lalamon nuzzled Salamon.

"Welcome back, your highness." Cid said.

"You're alright..." Leon said. I looked at everyone.

"Come on, you guys. There was no way you were getting rid of me that easily!" I said. Everyone laughed at my statement.

"I knew it." Leon said.I cocked my head to a side.

"Knew what?" Sora asked.

"Awhile back, everyone suddenly remembered you guys all at the same time." Leon said. Remembered?

"You mean... you forgot us?" I asked. For some reason it didn't surprise me. Like I knew that there was a reason they forgot us.

"Are you kidding me!?" Sora exclaimed.

"Thanks!" Donald huffed.

"Oh, yeah! Hikari, a girl named Yami has been living here the past year. She says she knows you." Yuffie said. Yami? Wait, that's my sister!

"Yeah! She's my older sister. Where is she?" I asked.

"She's with your grandmother, near the edge of the square. Hikari... there's something you should know-" Aerith began, but I cut her off.

"You can tell me when I get back." I said. I hurried out the door.


Sora's Pov

Everyone seemed worried after Hikari left.

"What's Hikari suppose to know?" I asked.

"Sora, did anything happen with Hikari and Riku before she lost her heart?" Leon asked. I thought.

"What do you mean?" They got even more nervous.

"What Leon means is; did they get into a fight that turned ugly?" Cid explained.

"Sora..." Donald said. I looked at him.

"What?" I asked.

"Remember a year ago on Captain Hook's ship? When we found Wendy, Hikari and Kairi... Hikari looked a little too relieved when we found her." Goofy reminded me.

"And she looked like she had been crying." Donald said. I thought back. Hikari did seem really relieved. A little too much.

"There... was a reason for that." Aerith said.

"What?" What Aerith said made my heart stop. "No... way... Riku would never do that!" I shouted.

"He didn't do it willingly. Ansem forced him to do it." Yuffie explained.

"How do you even know this is true?" I asked.

"Because, three months ago... Yami produced the proof." Leon said. I thought for a minute. What proof could she have possibly... Then it hit me.

"You mean..." I said.


My Pov

If I remembered correctly, Grandma's house was right over... there! I spotted the house. My heart was racing. This would be the first time I've ever seen my sister. I knocked on the door. I heard a voice response from inside. My guess it was Yami.

"It's open Grandma." Yami said. Grandma must have stepped out. I opened the door and saw Yami sitting in a chair. Laying at her feet was a Viximon. She looked up and her eyes widen with both shock and happiness. "Hikari?" Tears flowed down her face as they did mine.

"Yami!" I cried. We embraced and it was like I could feel sixteen years of my sister's love pouring into my heart.

"It's you! I can't believe you're awake!" Yami cried.

"I'm happy to see you, too! We have sixteen years of catching up to do." I said. She nodded, but then her smiled dropped.

"Hikari... Did Leon or anyone say anything to you about something important?" Yami asked.

"Aerith was trying to tell me something, but I was so excited to see you, I left before she could tell me." I said. Suddenly, a small cry interrupted the conversation. Yami walked over to a cradle that was on the floor and took out the bundle that was lying in it. "You're a mom?!"

"No, this baby isn't mine..." Yami said.

"Who's is it?" I asked. She gulped and turned to me. She moved some of the blanket out of the way so I could see the baby's head. The baby had ice blue hair.

"He's yours." Yami said.
