Chapter 14: Here On The Land and Sea
Surane didn't remember falling asleep, but she did remember waking up in her father's arms as he walked over to Mana.
"Dad?" She said half asleep.
"Oh Surane." Ventus said as he smiled gently. "I was so afraid that we'd lost you."
Ventus then set Surane down next to Iris, and she hugged her as she cried.
"I'm so sorry Mom!"
"Oh no, sweetie." Iris said soothingly. "We're sorry. We should have told you the truth."
"I didn't mean to hurt anyone." Iris said sadly. "I just hoped I'd make a better Mermaid than a girl."
"Oh Surane, it doesn't matter whether you have fins or feet." Iris said smiling. "We love you for who you are on the inside. You're our very brave little girl."
"Just like your mother." Eraqus said smiling.
"Oh, Grandpa!" Surane said as she hugged him. Ienzo joined in as well as Roxas helped Leon up.
"Hey, knock of the mushy stuff will ya?" Sora said as tears formed in his eyes. "I can't take it."
"Oh, you always were a sucker for family reunions Sora." Kairi said smiling.
"Surane, Ienzo," Eraqus began. "I don't blame you for wanting to join the Koz, and because you're my grandchildren, I'm giving you a most precious gift. A choice. You can come to Atlantica with me, or you can return to your home on land. Each of you can choose which you prefer."
Ienzo looked at Surane as she looked back at her parents who smiled in an, "It's your choice" way. Surane then smiled along with Ienzo.
"I have a better idea."
A day later, by the rocks where Ienzo and Surane hung out, Surane used her brand new Keyblade to disintegrate the wall, and everyone on both sides cheered.
"Now we can all be together!" She said happily.
Iris looked at her daughter and smiled. She and Leon were turned back into humans as soon as they arrived home. Axel then popped up and prepared a song he'd been working on all day.
Woo!
I feel the music playing!
It's swinging and it's swaying!
Like a great rhapsody!
Today we're so delighted!
Today we're all united!
Here on the land and sea!
Surane dived in to the water with Ienzo and the two got into a water war with Riku and Rose as Auqa and Terra laughed.
I see the sails are sailing!
Even the whales are wailing!
We're fun and fancy free!
We're feeling better now!
We'll sing together now!
Here on the land and sea!
Ventus then grabbed Iris and dived in as the two laughed. They were quickly followed by Leon, Riona, Roxas, and Namine. Iris then kissed Ventus hard, and Aqua and Terra covered Riku and Rose's eyes.
Move your tails and move your feet!
Live is sweet! Live is Grand!
Below the waters with the great brass band!
Demyx swam up and cheered along with his five sisters and niece.
"Whoo-hoo!"
Zack swam up to Surane and Ienzo and smiled.
"Hey, I just wanted to say that I'm sorry." Zack said as he smiled. "Friends?"
"Friends." Surane and Ienzo said. Then they tackled him in the water, and all three of them laughed and played.
Iris took Surane to the rocks for a minute, and gave her back her locket.
"There's no more stormy weather." Iris said smiling.
"Now we can sing together." Surane said smiling too.
In perfect harmony!
We're feeling better now!
We'll sing together now!
Here on the land and sea!
"Those on land sing!" Axel called out.
La-Di-Da-Do!
Those below sing!
Lo-Di-Do-Do!
Life is sweet as sweet can be!
Here on the land and the sea!
"Come on Father!" Roxas said smiling one of his rare, honest, smiles. "Join everyone, the water's fine!"
"I think not." Xehanort said stiffly. "The very idea is-"
But whatever the very idea was, they didn't know because Ienzo shoved Xehanort in as he smiled.
"Ienzo!" Riona said smiling.
"Okay everyone!" Ienzo said. "Watch this! I've been practicing all week!"
"Yeah Ienzo!" Terra called out. "Show us what the son of Leon's got!"
"Nothing scary!" Aqua said. "We've got two year olds present!"
Ienzo smiled and fired off a blast from his sword that exploded into a series of sparks that remained in the air and took the shape of not one, but two Mermaids. One was obviously a young adult while the other was only twelve. Everyone clapped at this.
"Thank you!" Ienzo said taking a bow. "Thank you!"
As Ienzo bowed, he accidently hit Vexen in the head.
"Oh!" Ienzo said. "I'm so sorry!"
"It's alright Ienzo." Vexen said smiling. "Now let's get to some swimming."
"You got it." Ienzo said smiling.
Shortly after. The entire enlarged family grouped themselves together in a ring with Iris, Ventus, and Surane in the center.
We're feeling better now!
We'll sing together now!
Here on the land and sea!
Eraqus then caused a rainbow to appear in the sky.
"Wow can you teach me how to do that?" Manar asked, and everyone laughed.
Chaos: Looks like this is the end of the story, right guys?
Surane: i never wanted it to end!
