Kingdom Hearts II: A Journey's End

Chapter 28: Olympus Stone and smile

"So, he trained alongside Hercules?!" Sora asked and Phil nodded.

"Yup, Captain Eager competed against Hercules to see whoever trains under me, well I picked Hercules." The Satyr said and Haruka pouted at this.

"Well that's not very nice. You could have trained them both, common sense." She stated and they looked at her. "What?"

"Hey, are you the one who saved me?" They heard Zack asked and Haruka turned to him with a smile.

"Yeah, that's me!" She waved and he smiled.

"Thanks."

"Oh you don't have to thank me, it wasn't a big deal." She giggled.

"Harumi, it's really you, isn't it?" He asked and she shook her head.

"That's my sister. The name's Haruka, got it in your head?" Haruka tapped her forehead with a smirk.

"You know I knew your sister. I asked her out on a date but for some odd reason she said no…" Zack wondered as he scratched his head and Haruka giggled.

"She has a boyfriend silly." Zack's eyebrows rose.

"Who?" He asked.

"Terra!" Haruka said happily and Zack looked down. He seemed a little down but his frown turned into a big smile.

"Wow, that's awesome, they totally suit!"

"Zack, is that you?!" Hercules asked and Zack turned to him.

"Herc, woah!" They high fived.

"It's been such a long time." The hero said and he nodded.

"Hey, I'm gonna be going now." Phil said.

"Where you going?" Sora asked.

"None of your beeswax." Haruka rolled her eyes at this; he's never gonna change.

"Sora, Haruka bad news." They looked at Hercules. "The Olympus stone's been stolen."

"What?!" Sora exclaimed.

"By who?" Haruka and Goofy asked.

"We don't know who it is yet." Herc answered.

"Hades?" Zack guessed.

"I highly doubt it." The hero replied. "All we're sure of is that it was a guy in a black hooded cloak. And he had a bunch of accomplices, a bunch of creatures in white." The four friends looked at each other and nodded.

"I think we might know who that thief is, Herc." Haruka said.

"If we get the Olympus Stone back, can we borrow it for a while?" Sora asked.

"Sure." Hercules nodded. He asked if they've seen Meg and they shook their head. Hercules sighed at this.

"What's wrong your hero-ness? Feeling under the weather?" Hades placed his hand onto Hercules shoulder.

"Hades." Zack growled.

"Why if isn't that pipsqueak." The lord of the Underworld smirked. "You know I thought staying in perfect shape was part of the hero job description, Wonderboy."

"Oh yeah, Hades we gotta talk!" Sora said and Hades flicked his head. The brown haired boy fell back and Haruka growled.

"HADES!" She roared and stomped up to him. "You lay a finger on my friend again and so help me I'll kick your flamin' ass so much that you'll die in the Underworld!" She growled.

"I can feel darkness from you." He muttered.

"Do I look like I care, baldy?" She asked with a smirk.

"I AM NOT BALD!" Hades bellowed and shot a fire ball at her. Zack's eyes widened and he pulled her away from the fire and pulled her into his arms.

"Are you okay, Haruka?" He asked and she nodded thanks. He unwrapped his arms around her and glared at Hades.

"Don't you even think about hurting Haruka!" Zack growled.

"Oooh, I'm so scared!" The devil said and then turned to Hercules. "Your little nutmeg got herself lost in the underworld." Herc growled and just as he was about to punch him, Hades turned into smoke and appeared next to Haruka.

"You kidnapped her!" Sora, Haruka and Zack exclaimed in unison.

"Well maybe…But why get caught up in the details." Hades asked. Hercules called for a white horse with blue hair and wings, Pegasus. He was about to get on but Hercules was stopped by Hades.

"You can't leave now okay? You've got a really important match today, against, um what was its name? Ah yes, the bloodthirsty Hydra. If you don't stick around, who knows what kind of accidents might happen." Haruka's eyes widened and her jaw dropped to the ground.

"Yeah accidents you cause!" Sora shouted.

"Yeah, baldy accidents happen because of you!" Haruka pointed at him.

"Like I said; details who need them." Hades shrugged.

"You're nothing but a big coward, Hades!" Zack hissed.

"Ah, well. We can't all be heroes." The lord of the Underworld disappeared. Hercules ran a hand through his hair and he looked extremely worried.

"Hey, Wonderboy! You don't have to worry about a thing! Me and Sora will sort things out!" Haruka said as she punched her fist in the air.

"Are you sure you both can take care of this?" Hercules asked.

"Yeah, Sora and I will be okay!" Haruka said with a grin.

"And I'm going with you." Zack said and she turned to him.

"Zack…" Haruka trailed off.

"Aw come on! I'll be okay and I'll become stronger." The red haired teen smiled sadly at this.

"You remind me of Ven." She stated.

"But, what about Hydra?" Sora asked.

"I'll deal with it." Hercules said heroically. Haruka's eye twitched at this and she tilted her head to the side. She turned to Zack and pointed at Hercules with her thumb.

"You wanna be a hero, like him?" She asked freaked out. Zack nodded with a big smile.

"Uh-huh." The Princess blinked at this and rolled her eyes.

"Okaaaaaay then."


Haruka, Zack, Sora, Donald and Goofy headed to the Underworld again and they found Phil on the ground.

"PHIL!" Zack, Sora and Haruka exclaimed and they ran towards the Satyr who stood up while he had his hand on his forehead.

"Oooh, ooooh." He groaned with pain.

"You okay?" Haruka asked concerned.

"What happened?" Sora asked curiously.

"I spotted this strange guy all dressed in black. I chased after him, but he turned on me. Next thing I know, I'm seeing stars." Phil explained.

"All dressed in black?!" Donald exclaimed.

"He's the one who stole the Olympus Stone." Zack mumbled.

"Did he by any chance have silver hair tied up and wore a blindfold?" Sora asked unexpectedly and Haruka raised an eyebrow at this.

"I didn't see his face." Phil said.

"Where did he run off to?" Goofy questioned.

"To the underworld. He's a bad apple, all right. And all I wanted was to find a backup hero." Zack's face was to die for, his jaw dropped and eyes widened.

"Hey! What about me?"

"Yeah, what about him?" Haruka pouted.

"Uhhhh…about that…goodbye!" Phil started running off and Zack face palmed. Haruka on the other hand shook her fist at him.

"Hey come back here! You didn't answer our question!" She yelled and Sora placed his hand onto her shoulder.

"Just forget it Haru." He mumbled and she sighed.


They walked into the Underworld Caverns and there were many Heartless scattered everywhere.

Around eight Heartless surrounded both Zack and Haruka. They stood back to back and had their weapons ready. They started fighting their enemies and proved to be a great fighting pair like how Zack and Harumi were in the past.

Haruka turned her head to Sora. The curse was really getting to him and he fell onto his knees. A Heartless jumped onto him and the Princess' green eyes widened.

"Sora!" She exclaimed and jumped onto that Heartless with a swing of her Keyblade. The Heartless disappeared and she held out her hand. "Sora, are you okay?" She asked softly and he took her hand. Haruka pulled him up and he nodded.

"Yeah, thanks." Sora said.

"We seriously need to find that Olympus Stone." Zack declared.

"Yeah, you're right. We need to find it, so that you guys can fight with all your strength." Haruka stated.

They walked further and further into the Caverns until they got to a secluded area where a person with a black coat and hood was standing.

"Huh?" He turned around and saw them all, especially Haruka and Sora. "Oh!" His voice was bright, young and cheery. He took off his hood to reveal his appearance; cyan eyes and a blonde mullet.

"Wait a sec..." The boy slurred. "Roxas, Phoenix!" Haruka and Sora tilted their heads to the side and their eyes twitched.

"Excuse me?" Sora asked.

"What the Underworld?" Haruka blinked.

"Roxas, Phoenix?" The nobody repeated. "Oh it's no use."

"Huh? What are you talking about?" Sora questioned.

"No, no. Who are you talking about?" Haruka corrected. From out of nowhere, he took out a random card and started reading it.

"Let's see, here… 'If the subjects fail to respond, use aggression to liberate his and her true dispositions.'…Right. Did they ever pick the wrong guy for this one…" He mumbled to himself.

"You're bizarre." Sora said.

"Yeah man! You cuckoo!" Haruka sung as she twirled her finger next to her forehead. The blonde haired nobody took out a round medal.

"Look, it's the Olympus Stone!" Zack exclaimed and Haruka and Sora gasped at this.

"He's gotta be the thief!" Goofy pointed at him.

"Now that's just plain rude!" He said and raised the Olympus Stone in the air. It glowed and disappeared. There formed a sitar like blue weapon in his hands and their weapons appeared in their hands too.

"Dance water dance!" Nearly 200 nobodies appeared.

"Crap, crap, crap, crap, CRAAAAAP!" Haruka cursed as they started to fight their enemies. After five minutes, there were still many nobodies around. But then, an idea popped in Haruka's mind.

'These nobodies are made out of water. Fire won't work against water but this does!' She smirked and raised her Keyblade in the air.

"Thundara Storm!" She yelled so loudly that it echoed throughout the Underworld. Her necklace glowed immensely. Many lightning bolts the remaining 100 nobodies.

When all the nobodies disappeared Haruka felt extremely weak. Her legs were like jelly and they gave in.

"Haruka!" Sora exclaimed and wrapped his arms around her. He lifted her up and held her closer to him. "You, okay?" She looked into his eyes and she shook her head. "You're gonna be okay." He whispered.

"Aw, look at you guys, Roxas and Phoenix. I knew that you guys are still in love!" Their eyes widened and cheeks turned pink as they looked at the crazy nobody.

"What are you even talking about?!" They asked in unison.

"Roxas, Phoenix! Please come back to us! Phoenix we miss all your jokes! It was so much fun…" He whined and disappeared into a portal of darkness.

"The guys a broken record." Sora said and Haruka laughed at this.

"More like a lunatic." She said and they all laughed.

"Look!" Donald pointed at the ground.

"It's the Olympus Stone!" Zack pointed out the obvious. Donald picked up the stone and gave it to Sora.

He held it up and he, Donald, Goofy and Zack glowed. They all got their strength back but Haruka was still really weak. She was slowly losing consciousness as her vision became blurry. She closed her green eyes and fell out of Sora's grasp.

"Haruka!" Zack, Sora, Donald and Goofy shouted. The brown haired boy kneeled to the ground and lifted Haruka to his lap.

"Haru, wake up!" She was still breathing but wasn't responding at all. Sora took out an Elixir and poured it into her mouth but it didn't work at all. They tried Potions and Mega-Potions but they didn't work either.

"What do we do?" Zack asked.

Suddenly they heard a portal open and looked up to see a man with a black coat. He was making his way towards Haruka but Zack stood in front of both Sora and the red haired girl with his sword.

"Don't come any closer!" He hissed and the person in the black coat placed his hand on Zack's shoulder. He shook his head and took his hood off. It was the same boy who saved Haruka at the mountain. Sora's eyes widened and he gasped. Lightly the silver haired saviour lightly pushed Zack and walked towards Haruka.

He took her out of Sora's hands and cradled her in his strong arms. He looked up at Sora and motioned him to go away.

"Huh?" Sora asked.

"I think what he's trying to say is that he needs space, Sora." Goofy answered and the blindfolded boy nodded. The brown haired 15 year-old walked off a bit and gave them a bit of space.

Haruka's saviour took out a golden bottle from his pocket; a bottle of Megalixer. He poured it into her mouth and she swallowed it. He held her closer to him and whispered into her ear.

"Haruka please wake up." The silver haired teen leaned closer to her and kissed her lips. Her hand twitched and the she regain consciousness as her hand moved. His lips felt so warm, welcoming, beautiful yet so familiar. She kissed back and placed her hand onto his cheek. He smiled into the kiss and pulled away after a few seconds.

She rubbed her eyes and sat up straight. The silver haired hero stood up and turned around. Sora dashed to Haruka side and wrapped his arms around her possessively.

"That was seriously inappropriate." He muttered and the teenager with the blindfold shrugged.

"Was he the one who saved me on the avalanche?" Haruka asked curiously like a child and her saviour had goose bumps from head to toe by hearing her voice. He felt his heart skip a beat at her lovely womanly voice.

"Uh, yeah…" Sora mumbled and the red haired girl stood up.

"Wait!" She shouted and her hero stopped walking. She ran up to him and what she did made his heart stop. She hugged him tightly from the back and Sora, Zack, Donald and Goofy gasped at this. The silver haired boy's cheeks turned bright red like her hair.

"Thank you so much for saving me at the avalanche and now! I really appreciate it dude!" He smirked at this, the girl never failed to change. "What can I do to repay you?" He shook his head at her and pulled her arms off him.

The silver haired teen turned to her, wrapped his muscular arms around her and pulled her into a tight hug. Her green eyes widened and cheeks turned beet red. But nonetheless she hugged him back; it was so warm and cosy in his embrace.

"I'll always be there to save you, but I don't think we'll ever meet again. I'm sorry. But remember that I care about you and all I want is what's best for you Princess." He said and for some odd reason she felt her heart skip a beat. He pulled away from her and Haruka pouted with a frown.

"Oh, so we won't be able to meet again, that's sad." She said with a childish tone.

"Princess, you and I are connected by our hearts and the pendant of half a Paopu Fruit I gave you. Never forget it." He stated and just as he was about to walk off, Haruka said something.

"You know you don't have to call me Princess. My name's-" Just as she was about to say her name, the silver haired teen interrupted.

"Haruka." He turned to her and smiled. His smile made Haruka's heart melt. The smile was so true and pure like snow. The smile was beautiful like a rare rose. His smile was so…amazingly captivating!

Haruka couldn't help but smile back at him even if he couldn't see it. The blindfolded hero wasn't able to see the smile but he knew that it was beautiful like her, pure like her heart, bright like her eyes and adorable like her pout.

He turned around and hid his blush. "Goodbye Haruka." He said.

"Bye-bye!" She giggled and said like a 5 year-old as she waved at him. He walked through a Corridor of Darkness as he smiled dreamily with that same true, pure, beautiful and amazingly captivating smile on his face.

'I still love her.' The hero thought to himself.
