A/N: Ehehehe... been a while hasesn't it everyone? Well sorry it took so long but I had some things to worry about myself like my phone being disconnected, and I had to take some time out to start writing my books (ALL 3 of e'm, in fact I might ask you guys to do me a favor and rate the first two chapters of each of e'm.) but hey I'm back... not sure when this will be updated again though, may be a while sorry...

Chapter Seven:

"How long till we get there?" Riku asked looking at Nicole who still hadn't woken up since the last battle with the heartless that had recently appeared on the island "We should be there really soon." Goofy said looking over to Sora who was leaning over Kari wiping the sweat off of her face. "Don't worry, they're going to be okay." Donald said sighing softly "Yea, I know but I just wish we could hurry." Sora and Riku said hugging each of their girlfriend's bodies. "So where are we actually going?" Selphie said hugging on to Tidus and Wakka who were both blushing but gave it no mind since their friends were hurt "We're going to see King Mickey at the castle... he should know what's going on..." Cid said staring at the space ahead of him "That's good." Said Riku pushing the hair out of Nicole's face. "Well it's better now... we're here..." said Goofy as he looked upon the small round planet with a huge castle sticking out of it "Whoa... that's the castle?" Selphie asked, pulling out a camera from who knows where and taking pictures causing everyone else on the ship to sweatdrop. "WHAT?! IT"S PRETTY!" she said in her defense. "Umm yea whatever, so where's Mickey?" Sora asked standing up and looking out the window of the ship "He should be outside waiting on us, we informed him of the situation before we left." Donald said with a sigh, taking a worried look back at the knocked out Kairi and Nicole "That's good, and there they are we'll land in... WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!?" Cid yelled at the two keyblade masters that were now standing up holding the two women in their arms looking outside of the door. "They don't have time to wait... we're jumping!" Riku said as he and Sora then pushed off the floor and flew through the sky above Disney Castle "What the fuck is wrong with them?!" Tidus asked looking at the falling bodies "Nuts Ya?!" said Wakka also looking at the two young men with great awe "Nuts, but in love..." he finished laying back, waiting for the ship to land.

--The Ground--

"Did they just jump!?" was the question that came out of King Mickey's mouth as he looked at his best friend and the best warrior that he had on his team "Yea, they did guess that they are worried..." said Leon with a grin playing on his face as he looked through his binoculars at the two falling warriors "Don't worry so much... they can fly or at least glide... they have their abilities." He said, giving the king the binoculars as he walked over to the castle doors in order to show Sora and Riku where to place the girls when they landed.

Sora and Riku were now gliding through the deep blue sky headed for Disney Castle at the fastest speed that they could so that they could get help for the two women that they loved. "Hey Sora! You okay!" Riku yelled looking sideways at his friend "NO TIME TO TALK!" Sora yelled with a pissed off look on his face as he began to speed up faster.

Wow... he has changed a lot... Kairi really did change him a lot, he needed her... I'm glad that he did win, but... Riku paused in his thoughts to look at the calmly sleeping in his arms...it looks like we both won... "Come on Sora! Let's get down there already." Riku said speeding up as Sora did the same, finally hitting the ground.

"Guys this way!" yelled Leon as he watched the two young men land on the ground and as they ran towards him and he turned around, leading the two heroes to the room where they would put Kairi and Nicole. "So how's it been going you guys?" Leon asked as he led his two friends towards the room but they kept quiet "Huh?" Leon looked around to see the determined looks on the two young men's faces and to a simple statement... it shocked him. Damn... it's been a while since the two of them but wow, they have changed a hell of a lot... looks like the fear of losing the women that they love has gotten to them, heh... love; a warrior's only weakness...Riona...I miss you thought Leon as he and the two boys ran towards the room.

--Disney Castle; Tsubasa Chamber--

"Sora, Riku... put them down there." Said Leon as the two young men placed the bodies of the women down on the bed "Okay now... what exactly happened?" Said King Mickey as he walked inside of the room holding his keyblade with a worried look on his face "King Mickey..." said Riku and Sora as they gave a light bow and then they began to tell their story. "Well you see, we were having dinner when heartless appeared out of nowhere. A Shadow Sora and Riku appeared to be controlling the others and they didn't look like they were taking orders from anyone but theirselves." Started off Sora "And then while we were fighting the heartless, the "door" started to glow and two keyblades appeared in their hands like Sora's did." Riku continued "But then when we were surrounded they started chanting these spells they called Komachi Alpha Heaven and Komachi Omega Hell or something like that..." they said together "then they fainted and here we are..." the two young men stared at King Mickey's face hard and there was silence... even as the others walked into the room.

King Mickey sighed... afraid to tell the young men what had happened so he placed down his keyblade on the ground and then walked over to look at the women. "Komachi... is a dangerous power... it destroys those without hearts by taking your own..." Mickey started, now sitting down "You remember those two key holes that you saw?" he asked to the men who nodded "Well, Komachi takes the power of the heart... those keyholes were their hearts... they locked them up in order to do the move...I'm sorry." He said, head in his lap now... and everyone staring at him with their eyes wide open "What... what does that mean... that there is no way to save them?" Sora yelled

"No, I..I never said that...there is one way to save them... you have to travel back to the end of the world... the holding place of all hearts and then you must find theirs... protected by the key hole and probably the heartless as well... you see, the hearts are no win real danger because if the heartless are able to break the locks.... Then the keyblades and the hearts of both Kairi and Nicole... will belong to them." Mickey said silently the silence was unbearable... until a loud outburst was heard coming from Riku. "Sora..." "Right..." the two young men looked at each other and nodded as they walked over to the bodies of the two most important people in their lives and then they kissed them. Then their bodies started to glow and the glow started to take the shape of a keyblade... the Alpha and Omega. Sora and Riku looked at each other and nodded once again now taking the keyblades and a determined look on their faces. "End of the world right?" Sora asked roughly "Y..yes..." Mickey said a little shocked "Good, we'll be taking the Gummy Ship okay Cid" Riku said; Cid was so shocked that he nodded dumbly tossing them the keys

"You guys be careful... and take care of them until we get back." Sora said a maturity in him finally being able to be seen as he and Riku took the two keyblades in their hands and walked off towards the Gummi Ship area; everyone else following.

"Be careful you guys!" said Tidus with a serious look on his face "Yea, ya sure you don't need our help?" Wakka asked, tossing his blitzball up in the air "Yea, this is our fight...not yours." Said Sora with a smile "You better come back okay, and you'd better save those two... if you don't I wanna kill you myself!" said Selphie waving madly; tears falling freely.

(Kimi Saeireba; If you were here) (Love Hina Normal Ending; English Lyrics Located at the end of the chapter)

I'M A DREAMER yoake no hikari sosogu ka no chi wa doko?

I'M A DREAMER Honojiroi sono hohoemi, douka sawarasete

The two warriors waved at their friends as they loaded onto the Gummi Ship; on their way to protect those that they love, from whatever it required.

koko wa hi no ataranai basho hitorikiri de naku toki no himitsu no basho sakebu youni namae yobunda kimi ga inakerya, kimi sae ireba

"Hey you two!" yelled Leon as he also looked at the two young men as they prepared for take off "What?" Riku paused "You've both grown...now go save the women that you love!" he said as Riku and Sora gave him a quick smile and then they were inside of the ship.

kitto iku yo, hi no ataru basho kono mama ja owarenai, yakusoku ga aru tooi michi, hitosuji no michi kimi ga inakerya, kimi sae ireba

kitto iku yo, hi no ataru basho kono mama ja owarenai, yakusoku ga aru tooi michi, hitosuji no hikari kimi ga iru kara, kimi sae ireba

This is it... we have to save them... there is no can I... there is only I CAN! Darkness will not control me! The light of my heart and the hearts of my loved ones will pull me on! Thought Riku as he turned the key of the ship This is it.... Hold on Kairi and Nicole... we'll be there... but it would be so much simpler, if only you were here... Thought Sora as the Gummi Ship took off, towards the End of the World and towards the ones that they love....

--Somewhere in the End of the World—

"So they are coming are they? HA! Pittiful humans, prepare to meet death!" Yelled the fur covered warrior as he walked back into the castle of darkness

-End Chapter 7-

A/n: Hey everyone; don't worry Kairi and Nicole aren't out; they'll be back in 2 chapters; just needed a way to start off the story. Cya next time!

English Translation I'm a dreamer. Where does the light of dawn pour down? I'm a dreamer. Dimly white, that smile touched me somehow. That sunshine doesn't touch this place, this secret place where you can cry all alone. As if I were screaming, I call out your name, If you weren't here; if you were here. (1) Surely, I'll go to that place where the sunshine touches. It can't end like this; we still have promises. That far off path, that straight path, If you weren't here; if you were here. (1) Surely, I'll go to that place where the sunshine touches. It can't end like this; we still have promises. That far off road, that beam of light... Because you are here; If only you were here.
