Hyrule

Link stood at the ruined entrance to Kakariko village and gave a long sigh as he saw all the work he would need to do to rebuild it back to the thriving town it used to be.

"Worried?" Zelda asked as she approached Link and he shook his head.

"No. I know it's going to be difficult but just because it looks a bit intimidating I can't run away…isn't that was Soren and Alice taught me?"

"Yeah…besides, I'm sure that the next time we meet them we'll want to introduce them to Hyrule in its prime. At least I would like to do that."

"You're not the only one." Link said with a whistle as Gorons and Gerudo started entering the ruined town, "I'd think we'd all like that, for everyone."

Mushroom Kingdom

Mario gave a sigh as he looked over the treaty that he and Bowser were currently in a heated argument about.

"Why would we give you kidnapping rights on our ruler!? This makes no sense!" He said slamming his hand down.

"Look, I'm agreed to leaving the Mushroom kingdom alone and not turning this into an all-out war. But I need some pull in order to keep my rule as king." Bowser said growling.

"Do you need it?" Luigi asked and Bowser shot a small fireball that hit the ground at Luigi's feet.

"My people need to know that they didn't go to war for nothing. If we want to maintain a stable peace then all I'm asking for is a simple kidnapping attempt three…four times out of the year to keep up public image and show that we are still a strong kingdom they put their faith in."

"So this would be a publicity stunt?" Mario asked and he nodded, "…That is insane!"

"Actually, it might be the best course of action." Peach chimed in making everyone turn to her, "Soren, Alice and Gareth all wanted a peaceful resolution to our turmoil without resorting to bloodshed and this might be the best course of action. Our kart races have been a good start but a show of power might help the more extreme forces stay in line behind either Bowser or myself; we don't want rouge forces trying to cause bloodshed…so we shall agree to this."

"Princess, are you serious?" Mario asked and she gave him a very serious look before giving the same to Bowser.

"But understand that under no circumstances are you to hurt our citizens and we are not allowed to kill yours. This shall be a simple powers struggle to keep things in balance…UNDERSTAND?" Both Bowser and Mario nodded before Peach gave a radiant and bubbly smile, "Well then, if that's settled-" She quickly altered and signed the treaty before getting out of her chair and heading for the door, "-let's have some cake to celebrate." As she left both Mario and Bowser gave a lovelorn sigh.

"What a woman."

Final Fantasy

Sarah finished dispatching the last wolf that tried to get into the village and swiftly sheathed her rapier before turning back to her large team of eight who all looked slightly worn from the long battel they just endured.

"That was the last of them so we should be fine." Sarah said and Brokkr collapsed to the ground.

"Ay be to old fer this work." He said.

"I think that's my line." The sage said and Brokkr chuckled as Sarah took a seat on the nearby rock.

"Hmm…" Kent said getting very close to Sarah who giggled nervously before scooching away.

"Something wrong Kent?"

"It's just weird to think that you're the same princess Sarah from Cornelia. She's very regal and elegant." Sarah giggled at this statement.

"As a princess I had to be…but here I can be whoever I want to be…and I want to be someone who helps others and travels wherever she wants to."

"Like those other versions of us?" Sarah nodded.

"They gave it their all until the very end and came out standing tall on the other side…I might have lost my kingdom in the process but I'm glad they worked to save this world from the destruction my world faced. I want to protect it now…anyway I can. Even if it's just as a simple adventurer."

"Well…you look good for an adventurer."

"Well thank you."

"Kent…" Hana said appearing behind him and making him sweat profusely before she grabbed him, "Don't go flirting with other girls when I'm right here!"

"Ow! Stop that Hana! Where did you learn this!?"

"Alice said these were good techniques to use when I don't want you ogling other girls." She replied and Sarah started laughing uproariously before she fell off the rock and into the grass still laughing.

Remnant

Ruby stepped out of her house quietly and came face to face with the remainder of team JNPR; Jaune, Nora and Ren who all smiled at her.

"Are you guys ready? Haven is a long way away." Ruby said.

"We wouldn't be here if we weren't." Ren replied, "Besides," He held up his letter from Soren, "I'm pretty sure they wouldn't want us to give up so easily." Ruby nodded as Jaune and Nora pulled out there letters from Soren as well and Ruby pulled out hers.

"…Where do you think they are?" Jaune asked.

"Probably off on another adventure of their own." Nora said, "They were a pretty crazy group."

"I don't think I wanted to hear that from you." Jaune said chuckling.

"Well, I'm sure that we'll see them again when we need them most…but for now we have to keep going." Ruby said making everyone nod, "Not just for them, but for all of our friends." With that they walked off into the woods and towards Haven.

Netherworld

Owen scrambled around the Overlord's palace frantically completing yet another mundane task given to him by Etna; he had been turned into a prinny to atone for his sins and of all the luck he was put back in Laharl's care as his prinny.

"Hey Owen!" Etna called making him turn around.

"What?" He asked bitterly.

"Go clean out the fridge. It has a back-up of expired food that needs to be removed."

"Have you lost your mind!? The last one tried to eat ME!"

"Well I'm trying my hardest to get you back to your body so hurry up and complete these tasks!" She had a point. He had to work extra hard to be able to pay off his sins and return back to his body cleansed…especially for a certain someone, "Speaking of…hey twins, bring her here!" The gemini twins came into the room holding a brown prinny in their hands, "I can't bring them back until they get their quota either so time for work!" Etna slapped the brown prinny on the back and she tumbled down in front of Owen who helped them up.

"Thank you Owen."

"No problem, now let's work hard to get back our bodies…Nina."

"Alright."

"Now I want Nina to fish the sea monster that's taken up residency in the moat." Etna said shocking both of them.

"W-What!?" Nina calmed down before giving a confident look…which isn't much for a prinny, "Alright…I can do it!" Owen moved to instinctively help her but stopped himself before remembering what Soren told him.

"…Alright, you can do it Nina." Owen said and Nina nodded before grabbing a fishing pole and rushing towards the moat, "…Have to let them face their challenges on their own…isn't that right?"

"After the fridge can you help me spar?" Shifty asked with a wicked smile.

"You just want a punching bag!"

Jack and Sarah sat at a camp fire as it flickered and sparked. Jack enjoyed the meat skewer Sarah had put together and slowly chewed as the rough meat of the newt almost left his taste buds numb.

"I'm…not much of a survivalist ." Sarah said sadly.

"Obviously." Jack replied spitting the skewer meat out before pulling out a skinned rabbit and setting it up over the fire.

"Oohhh…time for a Jack special!" Sarah said excitedly.

"For the seventh time this week." Jack retorted as Sarah sung to herself making Jack smile, "Whatever…which piece do you want?"

"A thigh." She said and he nodded as he seasoned it and began to spin it, "…Hey, what do you think Soren and the others are doing?"

"Probably on another adventure." Jack replied surprising Sarah.

"Really? Even after everything?"

"Yep, I wouldn't doubt he'd want to keep seeing new places and people…that's just how he is." Sarah sighed.

"Yeah…and kind of how you are."

"…I guess." He replied making her giggle.

"So where are we headed tomorrow?"

"Wherever we end up." Jack said and she nodded as they sat over the fire content with how things were.

Soren

"Um…" I was at a loss for words on where we were. In front of us was a two story house with a green lawn on it and…that was it. The rest of the area was as white as the void between realities.

"…You broke something didn't you?" Alice said.

"No! I can't break reality."

"Then where are we!?"

"I like to think of it like home base." A voice said making us turn back to the house and see Mary standing in front of the door, "Your own little home away from home…well, your new home anyway."

"Wait, what do you mean?" Lily asked.

"This is your home!" Still no clearer, "I've given you your own reality that has only one thing to it; your own house for all of you."

"Seriously!?" Gareth asked and she nodded.

"Every room is personalized to your preferred style and it's outfitted with everything you could need…including various media and gaming consoles and the movies, T.V. shows and games pertaining to such." That's…really impressive.

"That's amazing." I said, "…Any reason why?"

"Well, I said I would help you when you were ready. Think of this like my way of helping as well as a thank you for helping me when I needed it." She outstretched her hand and I saw a key to the house sitting in her palm, "Just know that I'm going to be spending a lot of time here…so get ready to have me as a fifth roommate." I looked down at the key before chuckling and grabbing it; this was going to be a lot of fun.

?

"Um…commander?"

"Yes?"

"Owen...his world has disappeared."

"What!?"

"Well…it seemed to be taken away in a sudden moment…he must have abandoned it."

"…So he gave up? How!?"

"We're not sure…but there was a sudden blast of travel energy a few days ago before it went quiet…wait…another energy spike showed up."

"Trace it."

"...It's a traveler's haven…only a level one though."

"Any familiar signatures?"

"Yes…it's those four that have been showing up everywhere."

"…Keep tabs on them."

"Yes ma'am."

"Looks like things are getting a bit more interesting."
