Chapter 32 Mother Haha
Xehanort's POV
The Next Day
My classmates and I had once again returned to Destiny Islands.
"How many times are we gonna end up coming here", Eraqus asked in annoyance.
"As many times as it takes", I replied.
Then…I heard this.
"Xehanort", I heard somebody call out to me.
Then, I turned around…and saw an elderly fisherman.
"Xehanort", he said as he walked up to me. "Is that you Xehanort?"
"Yes", I replied, remembering this man as someone who lives on the main island.
"My goodness", the fisherman started. "Where have you been young man?"
"It's a long story", I replied.
"Oh", the fisherman said when he noticed my classmates. "Who are your new friends?"
"They're my classmates", I replied.
"Classmates", the fisherman asked.
"That's another long story", I replied.
"Well then", the fisherman started changing the subject. "What are you waiting for boy? Haha has been worried sick about you."
"Who's Haha?"
…
The fisherman took my classmates and I to the main island.
When we got there, I led them to a house.
In front of the house…was a group of children playing.
When they noticed me…they stopped and smiled.
"Xehanort", one of them called out happily. "Look everybody! It's Xehanort!"
With that, all the children ran up to and started dog piling on top of me!
"Okay", I laughed as I tried to get them off of me. "Okay! I missed you guys too!"
"Mother Haha", one of the children called into the house. "Xehanort's back!"
With that…an elderly woman walked out of the house, and looked surprised when she saw me.
"Xehanort", she said in shock as she started walking up to me. "Is it really you?"
"It's really me Mother Haha", I replied.
"Oh my goodness", the woman (who I referred to as Mother Haha) said in shock. "It really is you! You look so different."
After mother Haha said this, she noticed my classmates.
"Oh", she started. "Who are your friends Xehanort?"
"They're my classmates", I replied. "Guys, this is Mother Haha. She's been my caretaker since I was a baby."
"Caretaker", Hermod asked in confusion.
"Let's go inside", Mother Haha suggested. "I'll explain more then."
…
My classmates and I were now sitting inside the house with Mother Haha.
"For many years, I have taken care of the orphaned children on the island", the latter revealed. "One night, a man in a cloak came to the house. With him, was a silver haired baby boy."
"Hmm", Eraqus started jokingly. "I wonder who that silver haired baby could be?"
"Mother Haha", Hermod started changing the subject. "Do you know who the man in the cloak was?"
"I do not", Mother Haha replied.
"I wonder", Bragi started. "Do you guys think that the cloaked man that brought Xehanort to the Destiny Islands is the same cloaked man who opened the Corridor of Darkness for him?"
"I was thinking the same thing Bragi", I revealed. "The question is…why?"
