The final Chapter!
This is the final chapter to Reawakening of Darkness! I really enjoyed writing this story and I hope you all liked it as much as I did!
Before you got to read the ending, here are my SHOUT OUTS!
TerraKH: I couldn't find a good name for him and then saw a ad in the TV for Sherlock Holmes. I immediatly liked the idea of calling him Moriaty. ^^
khheroxasoray: I already made you that offer^^.
For everybody else who wants to know how the sad ending would have been: PM to me.
The poll was Happy End so her you Go *Points in Chapters direction*
And here it is: the last Chapter!
He slowly opened his eyes. The bright white room blinded his sensitive eyes.
"Where am I?" he asked, not expecting someone to answer.
"You're awake!" a soft voce said happy and he was hugged by a familiar person.
All he could see was the red hair he of the woman he loved so much.
It dawned him that he was in a hospital "How… How long have I been out Kairi?" he asked as the redhead let go of him.
Tears of joy were running down her cheeks "A… a week."
"What happened?" Sora asked curious.
"After you blacked out?" Kairi asked.
He nodded "Yeah."
FLASHBACK
"I'm… Sorry, Kairi."
Sora closed his eyes and went completely limp.
"No! Sora, wake up!" Kairi screamed.
Because she cried, she overheard the howling sound of turbines coming closer.
Xion noticed the noise first. She looked around and saw a grey Gummi-Ship heading right at the glass wall of the lobby.
"Go down!" she yelled and pulled Kairi with her to the ground.
The ship crashed into the lobby, accompanied with the sound of shattering glass. Small shrapnel out of glass and other rubble cut over both women's backs.
The ship came to a stop before it hit the unconscious Keyblade masters.
Three people jumped from the top of the Gummi-ship's cockpit.
Kairi looked up and muttered something "The Shera?"
She recognized the three men that were now running in their direction.
Leon, Cloud and to her surprise Vincent.
"Cloud, look after them! Vincent and I will bring the five over there into the ship." Leon ordered and ran to take one of the unconscious on his arms.
Cloud came to Kairi and Xion's side "What happened?" he asked as he saw Sora.
"He just collapsed. I don't know, maybe he had no energy or something…" Kairi said between sobs.
Cloud nodded and laid two fingers on Sora's neck to feel his pulse. After a few seconds he cursed and laid his ear on Sora's chest.
"Fuck," Cloud whispered and held his hand over Sora's nose to see if he breathed. As he couldn't feel anything he cursed again and turned to Kairi.
"How long has he been out?" he asked in a hurry.
"A few seconds, why?" she asked afraid.
"His heart stopped beating, if we don't do anything hell die. He needs a CPR, now!"
Kairi started to panic "Can you do it?" she asked the blond man.
He nodded and laid both hands on Sora's chest. Cloud immediately began to apply pressure to the other man's chest.
"I almost died?" Sora interrupted.
"Could you let me continue or do you want me to stop?"
After thirty times Cloud stopped pressing Sora's chest down. "Quick, take a deep breath and blow the air in his mouth, but be careful to seal his mouth with your lips."
Kairi looked shocked at him "What?"
"Oh come on, Kairi! I know this is nothing new for you!"
Kairi did as Cloud ordered her and as she finished Cloud once again applied pressure to Sora's chest.
Meanwhile Xion helped Leon and Vincent carry the unconscious Keyblade wielder into the Shera.
After another thirty times, Cloud held his hand again to Sora's neck and checked his pulse.
"God damn it!" he cursed and signaled Kairi to repeat the respiration.
Tears were forming in his eyes "I dare you, don't die now Sora!" he yelled and continued to press.
After the next thirty presses, Cloud was already sobbing. As he checked Sora's pulse again he started to laugh, even though it sounded like a desperate sound.
Cloud grabbed Kairi's wrist and pulled it to Sora's neck "Can you feel it?" he asked excited.
After a few seconds Kairi could feel a heartbeat. She pulled her hand back and gasped shocked "You did it!" she said excited and hugged the older man.
"You really did it." She muttered again happy.
Cloud lifted the still unconscious Sora on his arms "We need to hurry, if he doesn't get a real doctor soon he'll die anyway." He said dead serious and entered the opening on the Shera's side.
"Hey, wait for us!" Somebody called out behind them.
Kairi turned around and saw six people, two of the carried by the others.
A tanned bald Turk and a red haired Turk carried the badly wounded Tseng.
Cissnei and Ralene carried or supported another Turk, a blond woman that was barely conscious.
Leon and Vincent, who already brought the other injured into the Shera, came to their aid and quickly carried the two Turks into the ship.
Before he entered, Cloud looked around if there was anybody else to take with them.
"Alright Cid, bring us out of here!" he said to the Pilot via intercom.
The Gummi-ship slowly pulled out of the now ruined building. As they lifted off, Kairi could get a glimpse of the building. The first ten floors of the tower were almost completely destroyed.
"Cid, contact Radiant Garden to ready doctors for eight emergencies!" Leon ordered over the ship's intercom.
"Oh, and I fucking thought you want me to fly to a drive-in and get us some food." The answer came back out of the intercom's speaker.
END FLASHBACK
"So… Cloud saved my life?" Sora asked as Kairi finished telling him what happened.
The redhead nodded "Yeah…"
"How about the others? Did they all make it?" he asked worried.
"Aqua and Riku woke up the same day again. Terra, Ven and Lea woke up three days ago. They are all well." Kairi answered in a soft tone.
"And Tseng? Did he make it?"
Kairi nodded again "Yeah, but he probably needs a wheelchair for a while."
Sora eyes widened shocked "A wheelchair?"
Kairi sighed "His spine was pierced by Moriaty, as far as I know."
"Is Moriaty…"
"Yeah, Tseng killed him." Kairi answered before Sora finished his question.
Sora sighed relieved "It's almost over now."
"Almost?" Kairi asked surprised.
"Yeah…"
"Don't you want to tell me?"
"Later… What have the doctors said about me?"
"Except that you are as scarred as Jack? Not much, only that you need to rest for a few months before you are allowed to fight again."
Sora let out a short laugh "I already figured that. And what does Dr. Kairi say?"
"No fighting for you, ever again." His fiancée answered with a smirk.
Sora frowned "And I figured that already too!"
"Yeah, you won't fight anything for a looong time." Kairi said with a smile and leaned down to place a kiss on his lips.
Kairi stood up from her chair and picked up two crutches from the floor.
"Wait, why do you need crutches?" Sora asked shocked.
"Apparently, I strained my ankle when I used Xion's sword as a jump pad. But I only noticed it after we arrived here…" she explained.
"oh… Where are you going anyway?" Sora asked as she walked to the door.
"I need coffee, really bad." She answered and left the room.
Sora sighed and leaned back in his bed. He hoped he would never need to fight again, like Kairi wanted…
TWO WEEKS LATER
Sora waited at the Forge, a giant artificial world he discovered two years ago. He didn't know who made it, but he was pretty sure it was used to created weapons, maybe even Keyblades.
A small dissolving moon circled the world and the rubble from it was pulled down in a hole leading to the worlds heart. The Forge had no real heart, of course, but instead a giant crucible.
The immense heat in there melted everything and created a seemingly indestructible material.
Whoever created this world had to face an extremely dangerous enemy, probably the darkness.
However, Sora didn't really care about it. It was the job of historians to find out stuff about the forge, not his.
Five Portals of Light opened in front of him.
Out of them stepped Jack Skellington, Hercules, Adam, Simba and Aladdin. The spark of a Star Shard hit near them and transported Donald and Goofy to the Forge too.
Sora was happy to see them all again.
"My Friends," he greeted them "I'm glad you all followed my question to come to this distant world. I hope you all brought the box or package I gave you four years ago with you?"
The seven men nodded and held out their packages.
Sora smiled "Good. Please lay them down in front of me."
His friends did as he asked and placed the seven packages in front of him. A humming tone started to rise from the boxes.
"You may ask what in these boxes is. Almost five years ago, while Xehanort and I fought, he created the most powerful of all Keyblades, the χ-Blade." Sora explained as he opened the boxes. The hum became even louder.
"After I defeated him, I used the χ-Blade to ban him out of this universe and seal the Realm of Darkness." He continued.
"After this, I shattered the χ-Blade into eight parts. Seven of them I placed in boxes and gave them to my friends to protect them from every bad."
The shards of the χ-Blade floated out of the boxes and came closer to each other.
"And the last one, I sealed in my arm, so nobody except me could use it ever again." He explained as the broken χ-Blade formed in front of the eight men.
"Before I touch it, please take cover so you won't get hurt." Sora said, aware of the blast that will be created when he touch the χ-Blade.
His friends did as he asked and took all cover behind what looked like a giant anvil.
Sora came closer to the floating blade and touched its handle, creating the whole χ-Blade.
The blast that was created blew away all the dirt on the ground and revealed a blue metal underneath it.
His friends came out of their cover again and looked afraid at him.
Donald was the first to speak up "Sora, what is-"
"I know, this is one of the powers the χ-Blade holds, but I only need it to cast a new seal on the Realm of Darkness. A stronger one." He said and tried to calm them down.
Sora waved his hand and a Corridor of Darkness appeared in front of him. He looked at his friends again "Wait for me, I'll be back soon." He said and stepped into the Corridor.
"Garwsh, do you think he'll do something stupid?" Goofy asked in the round.
The others started to laugh.
Hercules laid a hand on Goofy's shoulder "You know him…" he said still laughing.
"He wouldn't be Sora anymore…" Aladdin added.
Simba stepped to Donald's side "Yeah, it would be kind of weird if not…"
"He just saves the day in his way." Adam added to defend Sora a bit.
"I don't know what you guys are talking, but I'm pretty sure Sora will turn all hell lose on us." Jack said and earned another round of laugher.
"Yup that's our Sora!" All seven of them said in unison.
THE DARK MARGIN
Sora stepped out of the Corridor of Darkness and looked around.
"You might not be able to leave after you sealed it." Roxas said in his mind.
Sora sighed "I know… but with the light in the χ-Blade, I should be able to leave in time."
He raised the χ-Blade and floated up in the air. In front of him appeared a giant keyhole, that wasn't only the keyhole to one world. It was the Realm of Darkness' keyhole.
Sora pointed the χ-Blade at it and a bright beam of light came out of it.
With a loud click, the keyhole locked and disappeared again.
"Only one more thing to do…" Sora said to himself as he touched the ground again.
With all his power he stabbed the χ-Blade into the ground and recalled the Summon he said four years ago.
The earth started shaking as he started. With a wave of his hand he summoned a Portal of Light to leave after the Seal was finished. Out of the hole the χ-Blade created came chains out of pure light and started to envelope the world he was standing on.
Sora pulled the blade out of the ground and watched for a second as the chains shot to other worlds in the realm of darkness, creating a shield that protected either side from the other. Light from Darkness and Darkness from Light.
With a happy sighed he stepped back into the Portal.
THE FORGE
A Portal of Light after two hours and Sora stepped out of it.
"What took you so long?" Donald asked annoyed.
"Long?" Sora asked surprised "Oh, I forgot the messed up time over there." He excused and scratched the back of his head.
Sora pulled the χ-Blade out and let go of it, turning it into its broken form again.
"Get ready." Sora said as he summoned Oathkeeper.
To the surprise of the other men, he hit the χ-Blade with his Keyblade and it shattered into seven pieces again.
Sora placed each piece into one of the boxes and handed it to one of his friends.
After he was finished, he stepped back and watched his friends prepare to leave.
"Haven't you forgot something?" Roxas asked in his mind.
"Oh yeah, before you all go, I have to tell you some news." Sora said and gained interested looks from his friends.
"What is it Sora?" Simba asked curious.
"Kairi and I will marry soon." Sora let out with a smile.
"WHAT?" his friends asked in unison.
Sora chuckled and invited them all.
RADIANT GARDEN, TWO DAYS EARLYER
Riku entered the Restaurant he was invited to by his two best friends.
He was relieved Sora was alright again.
"How can I help you, Sir?" a waiter asked him.
"Oh, I wait for friends who invited me here tonight."
"Did Sora invite you?" Someone asked behind Riku.
Riku turned around "Yeah, they call- Uh, hey Xion." He stuttered awkwardly as he realized who talked to him.
The raven haired woman smiled "Yeah, me too. What could they want?"
Riku shrugged "Don't know."
"We probably know it soon- hey they just arrived."
Sora and Kairi entered the Restaurant and came in Riku and Xion's direction.
"Hey guys." Sora greeted them cheerfully.
Riku was a bit confused "Uhm, hey."
"Let's take a table and get something to eat." Kairi suggested.
Sora smiled "Yeah, I'm starving."
"You're always hungry Sora." Riku reminded him laughing.
"Not true."
The four sat down at the closest table and ordered food and drinks.
"So why did you want to see us?" Xion suddenly asked.
Kairi looked to Sora "Should I or do you want?" she asked him.
"The honor is all yours." Sora answered with a grin.
Kairi nodded "Okay… Sora and I…"
Xion and Riku both listened interested.
"…are going to marry soon." Kairi finished.
Both, Xion and Riku looked surprised at their friends.
"And guess who's my best man, Riku." Sora said with a big grin.
After a few seconds, Riku fended of the surprise and was happy; his two best friends would soon marry.
"Uhm, who?" he asked after a while.
"You of course!" the other three said in unison.
THREE DAYS LATER
Sora entered his home again and looked around, everything was perfect now. No heartless to attack the Realm of Light again and he would soon marry the love of his life.
Somebody ran down the stairs and hugged Sora.
"Come, I have to show you something." Kairi said happy and pulled him upstairs.
As they reached their bedroom, Kairi grabbed a white sticklike thing and held it out in front of her.
Sora took a closer look at the object.
It was a long white plastic stick and had something that looked like a piece of paper in a deeper spot with a blue plus on it.
"Wha-" Sora was about to ask but realized what it was.
He looked up to his soon-to-be-wife.
She nodded happy.
