-Author's note-

For some reason, Hyperlinks aren't working anymore, at least for me. They disappear when publishing. So for now, I'll paste the end of an Imgur link in parenthesis next to where the hyperlinked text would be. just make sure you put in in the "Imguredotcom" in the URL before pasting the rest of the link.

Xion slowly opens her eyes. She stretches her arms before looking over to her special one in the chair next to her and smiles. She puts her hand on his shoulder and lightly shakes him awake.

"Get up sleepyhead," Xion says quietly. Roxas opens his eyes and looks around before looking at his partner and smiling.

"Goodmorning. . ." Says Roxas stretching his arms. The two get up from their chair. They look over at their close friend Namine and then look at each other devilishly. They slowly approach their friend, before suddenly grabbing her arms and shoulders

"Boo!" the two shout. Namine jumps

"AH! I'M UP! I'M UP!" Namine quickly looks around to see her friends behind her laughing. She smiles a little before laughing as well.

"C'mon let's go." Says Xion who reaches her hand out. Namine takes it and they disappear in a flash of light, before appearing in Merlin's house.

"Nobody's home, as per usual," notes Roxas, pulling out a torn page from his pocket and approaching the child's book.

"From the looks of it, that might just be the last page," says Namine.

"Yeah, I think your right," Xion adds on. They put the final page in as best as they can before Roxas instinctively points his hand at the book, but nothing happens.

"Oh. . . Right. . ." Roxas says, quietly putting his hand down and facing his girlfriend. "So, Xion. Care to do the honors?" asks Roxas, brushing aside his mistake. Xion nods and materializes her keyblade and pointing it at the book. With a flash of light, the three disappear into the book.

Roxas, Xion, and Namine reappear in the thick woods in which Pooh and friends live. They're surprised to find that night has fallen over the world. Namine notices something in particular.

"Has there always been a path behind us?" asks Namine. Roxas and Xion turn to see a new path. They follow Namine and take the path. Eventually, they find a small clearing, with a small river, a bridge, and a winding hill with a tree on top, upon which a familiar yellow bear sits. He has a pot of honey stuck on his head, and it looks like he's struggling to get it off.

"Looks like Pooh Bear's back to his usual self." Says Namine. The three giggle before crossing the bridge to help their friend.

"Hello? Can you please help me?" asks Pooh.

"Of course." Says Roxas. They try to pull it off, but it's stuck really tight, suddenly Roxas has an idea.

"Hey Xion, can you get ready to cast a magnet spell real quick?" asks Roxas.

"Huh? Yeah, I can do that. Why?" asks Xion

"You'll see." Says Roxas. The golden-haired boy picks up the bear he holds him in his hands like a fat babe before he grabs him by his small legs in starts spinning around

"Roxas! That's not funny! What are you-" Namine yells but he quickly interrupts her

"Xion! Now!" Roxas shouts as he throws the bear with incredible force. Xion quickly casts a magnet spell. Suddenly Pooh bear is pulled out of the pot and back towards Xion and Namine who catch him before he can land on the ground, meanwhile, the sound of a pot breaking is heard in the distance.

"Roxas what was that!? You could have hurt him!" Xion scolds. Roxas simply shrugs.

"But I didn't-!" says Roxas as he uses his hands to make little finger guns.

"Don't worry, I'm fine, just a little dizzy. . ." says the Pooh bear, the girls turn to Roxas angrily before picking up the pooh bear and setting him down on the log seat to which they join him, Roxas however, is not allowed on the log seat, as punishment for his crimes.

"So, what were you doing here?" asks Roxas.

"I was thinking, about my dear friend Sora." Says the bear "I haven't seen him in such a long long time." The bear turns to Roxas and Xion. "For a while, I had thought you two were him, which is why I hadn't recognized either of you, but now, I realize you're not Sora. Would you mind giving me your names"

"I'm Roxas"

"I'm Xion."

"Roxas. . . Xion. . . What lovely names." remarks the pooh bear. "Say, do you know of a way I can make Sora come back again?".

"Pooh. . ." Namine tries to think of a way they can nicely explain why they can't.

"Don't worry," says Roxas. "We'll come back some time, and we'll bring Sora with us for sure. We promise."

"Could you bring him here now?" asks the pooh bear.

"No. . . But that's fine," says Xion. "Because he'll always be with you- right here," Xion says as she pokes his chest. "You don't have to go anywhere. Just stay here, and you can see him anytime you want." Says Xion.

"You mean I just have to stay right here?" asks the bear.

"Yeah, that's all." Namine chimes in.

"What about you? Can I see you three anytime too?" Pooh asks.

"Of course," Roxas says, with a smile. The four look up to the sky and stargaze for some time. But all good things have to end eventually. As Xion and Namine get off the log seat, and Roxas gets up from off the ground, Pooh asks something.

"Do you have to leave?" asks the bear.

"Yeah Pooh, we really do. . ." Says Xion sadly. The bear is quiet for a moment but smiles.

"That's alright. Just come back to visit me one day!" exclaims Pooh Bear

"Of course. And we'll bring Sora too." Roxas says. They wave goodbye to their good friend, and he waves back as they proceed to take the path back into the woods before Xion uses her keyblade to exit the world in a flash of light. They reappear in Merlin's house, but this time it's not empty, instead, they find Leon.

"Hey. I thought I'd find you guys here." Leon says "I noticed the gummi ship in the sky and thought I'd look for you."

"What's up?" asks Roxas.

"Is Ansem's computer still working?" asks Namine.

"Yep, Looks like Tron's keeping things stable." Says Leon.

"That's great. Let us know if you need our help though." Xion quickly adds on.

"Though. . . they can't exactly get ahold of us if we're not here. . ." Roxas notes.

"That's actually why I'm here," says Leon. The three look at the man with curiosity in their eyes.

"Cid is working with Scrooge, as well as Chip and Dale to make some sort of Long-distance communication device, that works across worlds." Says Leon. "It's like what Chip and Dale use to send the gummi ship messages, but way more complex." Leon explains, "Right now they require a program on a terminal with special hardware to work, but apparently they want to make these fit in someone's pocket one day. . . Not sure how that'll work out." Says Leon. He turns around and grabs a box He hands it to Roxas who nearly drops it. The box is surprisingly heavy.

"Geeze. . . Leon what is this?" asks Roxas.

"Some equipment you can connect to the terminal in your gummi ship. It should allow us to talk with you guys at any time, no matter how far you are from us. Just as long as you have access to the gummi ship."

"Woah! That's so cool!" Xion exclaims. She's always been a fan of technology, perhaps that's her inner Vexen coming out a little. "Thank you! We'll get it working once we're back in the ship!"

"Don't thank me, Thank Cid and the others. They're the ones who spent days making it. I'm just the messenger." Says Leon. he turns and waves goodbye before exiting. Namine grabs onto Xion's arm and Xion puts her hand on Roxas's shoulder before she materializes her keyblade and raises it to the sky. Then, in a flash of light, they disappear.

Sometime later, Xion finishes screwing in the final panel before turning to the terminal and pressing the on button. The three look on at the terminal and see a new icon on the top right, in the shape of some sort of speech bubble. Xion clicks on the icon and an application opens simply called "messages", speaking of messages, she has 1 new message ( /a/TAcMx7c ). Roxas and Namine practically die of laughter as Xion fires back at Cid with the comeback of the century. Eventually, though, they manage to calm down

"This is gonna be very useful! I honestly hope they actually can make things like these that fit in a pocket." Says Roxas. Xion enters a command into the terminal and rushes to her seat, Roxas and Namine take their seats as well and the gummi ship blasts off.

"Where are we going next?" asks Namine

"The only place we haven't checked, Olympus," Xion responds. The three sit in their chairs as they wait for the ship to arrive at their destination. Roxas grows bored and wishes contact with his special one, he reaches out to grab her hand, but she swats him away

"Ow! What was that for?" asks Roxas

"You nearly hurt Pooh. You lose your physical contact privileges" Xion scolds

"But- . . . please?" says Roxas. She looks over to her boyfriend, trying her hardest to glare at him

"*sigh* I can't stay mad at you." Says Xion. She gets out of her seat and sits in the same seat as Roxas, wrapping her arms around his neck. Roxas's face turns red, before he wraps his arms around Xion, embracing.

"*sigh* Xion you spoil him too much. . ." Namine remarks.

"Yeah, but I love him so I don't care." She says as she closes her eyes and holds Roxas closer. Namine rolls her eyes before she grabs her sketchbook and begins drawing. It's rough, but it's possible to make out what she's drawing. Atop a clocktower sits seven people, holding ice cream, and watching the sunset.
