A/N: In the finale, taking place two years after the end of Part 2. Faris gets the shock of her life when Fang and Lightning welcome their daughter. How will she react? This has 2 time jumps: one to welcome their daughter and the other later on with the reason for the name of this tale. On a side note, I COMPLETELY forgot to talk about Raiden. He's an Esper in FF VI. Celes is C_Cole310 (10 March is her birthday).

Army of Yun-Farron, Part 3

Sarisa Charlotte Yun Farron, Lightning and Fang's daughter, their second child together, who they named after Faris herself and the middle name coming from Lenna's middle name. The one thing VERY few people knew was that Sarisa is Faris' real name. Lightning PERSONALLY made sure that she would carry their second child, after seeing what Fang went through with Kain. With Fang and Lightning giving their newborn daughter loads of love and attention, it was beyond surprising to see Kain plus both Buttercup and Raiden joining his parents in giving Sarisa the love and attention she deserves, since some people thought that he would be jealous of his baby sibling to no end. Thanks for everything, Kain, Lightning's eyes told her son with a gentle smile on her face, knowing that Kain is reminding her of her father, who gave the Farron daughters equal love and attention when they were much younger, something that certain people have no clue on to this day, much to the surprise of Fang of all people.

The Tycoon sisters, plus Vanille, Hope and even Setzer, who wanted to be there for Lightning as he recently found out that he and Lightning are distant relatives due to a genealogy test he was encouraged to take a few months back, all were in the waiting room nearby, waiting for the official word from Fang and their doctor to allow them to see Sarisa at last. Out of the group in the waiting room, only Vanille and Setzer knew about the name of Fang and Lightning's daughter, where they really got it from. For Lightning, it was her way of saying thanks to Faris for putting up with her for as long as she did. In Fang's case, it was something she planned the entire time. It was when Fang brought up the idea with the older Farron, Lightning immediately agreed with naming their daughter Sarisa. "Faris is bound to shocked to no end when she finds out that we named Sarisa after her..." Lightning starts off, with Fang listening in before the noticeable yawn from the older Farron had Fang gently grabbing the newborn, so that the pinkette can sneak a nap of sorts in.

Fang personally made sure to get to know their newborn daughter before the others would meet her. What made Fang smile her best smile was Kain's kiss to Sarisa's forehead, for the aforementioned reason that older siblings would be jealous of their baby sibling. This was never the case for Kain. It was Raiden's presence that inspired him to be there for his younger sister (which started shortly before he found out that he was going to have a younger sister). Buttercup and Lightning got their nap in together, with Raiden being the best service dog he could be to the Yun-Farron family. It was Sarisa getting loud and fussy that woke up both cat and the older Farron from their quick nap. Apparently, the youngest Yun-Farron was hungry, which shocked every human in the room at that time. She may resemble me but clearly has Fang's appetite, Lightning mused to herself before the nurse walked into the room to let the family know that the others wanted to meet Sarisa but started to get impatient. "Let them in" was all Fang and Lightning said at the same time, giving the okay for the others to see the baby girl.

Faris and Lenna are about to get the shock of their lives.

Oddly enough, Hope and Vanille were the first people to enter the large room, cooing over the newborn daughter. "She looks just like you Light," Hope mentioned with a gentle smile on his face, remembering the photo of Lightning when she was a newborn herself. Vanille was too speechless to say anything but gave Sarisa the attention an aunt would give to her niece. Noting the level of fascination Sarisa has with the others, Setzer took it upon himself to approach his cousin and talk to the newborn in a way that Fang picked up on as a means to calm the baby down when needed. Using Setzer's moment as a source of inspiration, Fang approached the Tycoon sisters, who surprisingly were the most hesitant of the group to meet the newborn. Once the pilot's time with his newborn cousin was done, the brunette introduced Faris and Lenna to the newborn. "Faris...and Lenna... meet Sarisa Charlotte Yun-Farron…" Fang told them, with a loving look in her eyes which was only meant for Lightning and their kids. It was this announcement that rendered both Tycoon sisters COMPLETELY speechless, for both Lightning and Fang named their newborn daughter after them.

At first, Lenna and Faris couldn't say a word. They named their baby girl after us...but why...it shouldn't matter though. She does look like Lightning though...Sarisa is one cute baby...Kain's gonna be a great big brother to her, they happily mused to themselves while looking at Sarisa with love and a vow of protection in their eyes, Lenna being the one more wanting to interact with her niece than Faris but the older Tycoon sister was okay with Lenna having her time with baby Sarisa. Faris needed a few minutes to compose herself the best she could so that she can have a chat with Fang to get the reason why the newborn was named after her real name. "If it's okay with everyone, Snaggletooth and I need to have a chat of sort outside the room. We'll be back before you know it..." Faris suddenly announced, dragging Fang out of the room with her, although a sincere smile was present on Faris' face. Setzer was playing with Buttercup while Hope was feeding Raiden his favourite dog treats, with Vanille giving baby Sarisa her undivided attention while Lenna only giving Lightning a gentle hug to say 'thank you' for everything despite the duo not interacting as much.

Just outside Lightning's room, Faris gave Fang a hug and cried happy tears onto Fang's shoulders. The older Tycoon sister had no words to say to the brunette at all, a first in their friendship after all this time. "It was Lightning's idea as well as mine to name Sarisa after you, Pirate. You and Lenna went through so much with us, and helped Light with the bullshit she had to go through especially with you-know-who. It's the least we could do to repay you two. If it makes you feel better, Celes and Locked named their daughter after Lenna..." Fang admitted to Faris with a small chuckle, causing Faris to release a chuckle of her own with info about Fang and Lightning's lawyer. "We are far from even, Snaggletooth, despite what you think. I think I owe Lightning another favour of sorts, and Lenna still owes you some ice cream and I forgot what else for Kain…" Faris started with her counter before Fang dismissed that, saying that the favour Faris was thinking about doing for Lightning wasn't needed, and Kain is more than happy for the birthday money from Lenna, and ended the dismissal with ice cream is the 'easiest thing to replace' as Vanille bought Lenna the ice cream the younger Tycoon sister consumed.

Upon returning to Lightning's room, Faris pulls out an item meant for baby Sarisa from a pocket in her trousers - a box containing a pendant that both Tycoon sisters have, more specifically, the Tycoon family heirloom. Since Faris and Vanille only have boys in their family and the pendant is meant for a girl due to the Tycoon family tradition which their sons are both okay with since they were told about the Tycoon family tradition, it made sense for Faris and Vanille that baby Sarisa inherits the necklace instead of one of their sons. Lightning couldn't stop smiling with her eyes at the item, for Fang would put it in safekeeping until baby Sarisa is old enough to wear it. Faris placed the pendant pack in the box and pocketed it until the Yun-Farron family are given the okay to go home with a healthy baby Sarisa coming with them. Buttercup, the first to wake up from the nap, does what the cat does best: give the baby loving purrs and attention. It was some minutes later that Faris, Vanille, Lenna, Hope and Setzer left the room, and the hospital, so that Fang and Lightning and have some family time, until they were given the okay to go home, which Hope and Setzer did all the work to build and prepare Sarisa's nursery weeks ahead of time with insight from Vanille as Hope and Setzer lacked a clue on how to create an ideal nursery for a girl and Vanille had to help with Hope and Lenna's nursery when the younger Tycoon sister was expecting.

It was close to two weeks later that Fang, Lightning, Kain, Buttercup, Sarisa and Raiden all went home, for it was under varying but concerning circumstances that both Lightning and Sarisa had to stay at the hospital longer than expected and Fang lucked out as she was granted three years of paid leave to be with her family which the brunette made sure to take full advantage of. Fang was overjoyed to have her family healthy, her only concern while Lightning was carrying Sarisa in her womb. Being the chivalrous lad as always, Setzer arranged for the transport to ensure that all in the Yun-Farron family was back at home in one piece, with Setzer himself as the pilot and Sazh tagging along to help test the new aircraft. The trip was in silence since both Sazh and Setzer didn't want to disturb Sarisa at any point although Dajh kept the remaining passengers company. Upon arrival to the Yun-Farron household, Sarisa got hungry. Again. Fang found this amusing to no end, and Lightning had to feed the newborn daughter in private, arriving to the house last out of the group. Once they took a look at Sarisa's nursery, which Sazh had a MAJOR role with the toys in it, Sarisa had the biggest smile on her face, happy that she has loads of people who love her from she was inside Lightning's womb, with the theme of the nursery being the feminine theme to Kain's: a perfect mix of Fang and Lightning's respective cultures.

Sarisa was the last piece to fully heal Claire "Lightning" Yun-Farron.

Five Years Later

"Is everyone here ready for this picture to be taken?" Lightning yells to those who came to visit in a calm manner, knowing that the nature of this photo shoot is to send a message to a certain couple who STILL refuses to leave her and Fang alone: you mess with Lightning and her family, you're dealing with the Army of Yun-Farron, people and animals who would give their lives to ensure that all in the Yun-Farron family live in peace as they rightfully deserve that. It was Leia who volunteered to be the photographer for this event, and the doctor managed to get the dogs, cats, horses, chocobos AND humans to fit in the cameras provided (Celes wanted a photo more so than the rest and generously paid for a framed copy) for the photo shoot. Celes gave the older Farron a side hug with a 'so good to see you again, Light' and a gentle smile on her face, recalling that Lightning's business was doing much better than the lawyer anticipated and the pinkette is able to walk normally again, proving everyone in general and those at the Guardian Corps wrong. Raiden was able to stay with Lightning and Fang as their dog, with Rygdea keeping true to his word as he was able to have Buttercup rest on his shoulder.

With Leia taking varying shots of the large group, it very surprisingly was Weiss who became the most fond of the chocobos Fang and Lightning owned, with one of them claiming the former SDC heiress as his human. To her surprise, this particular chocobo was named Myrtnaster and the feeling was mutual between Weiss and the chocobo. It was the doctor who took a quick photo of the duo, plus Lightning and Fang looking on in awe, in one take. Lenna couldn't stop smiling at the serene scene, and had a feeling that Weiss was going to be gifted with said chocobo. Fang confirmed the younger Tycoon sister's thoughts and wanted to surprise Weiss with Myrtenaster the Chocobo for her birthday, hence the reason for the quick photo Leia took of the duo. Once the entire photo shoot was over with, Lightning, was about to pay the doctor for the photo shoot before getting an odd glare from Celes that said it all: the lawyer paid for everything, and the older Farron was forbidden from shelling out a single coin to cover anything. Fang, being Fang, couldn't stop laughing her arse off at this particular exchange, despite the fact that both Odin and Raiden couldn't stop playing with each other and Locke had trouble getting the dogs under control.

It was a few weeks later that Lightning was able to post her favourite photo from the photo shoot on her Instagram account as PinkThunder57, which was EVERYONE who knew them well (Celes took a month off from her firm according to Locke, with Lebreau and Gadot leaving the bar back in Bodhum closed as it was being remodeled) being there, with one clear message to a certain couple in Bodhum as the caption:

To a certain pair who won't leave us the fuck alone, this is WHO you'll have to deal with THE INSTANT you try whatever dumb shit you have up your sleeve on my wife Fang, my son Kain, my daughter Sarisa, the pets and even myself. I've been kept up to date on things in Bodhum by C_Cole310 who is the lawyer to both BahamutsLady59 and I. If you think that I have nothing left up my sleeve to use against you... all I will say to you on the topic is that you'll be dealing with the lawyer to respond to whatever it is from you. Consider this your ONLY warning.

The comments on the post ranged from those who said that Lightning made the right call with the photo to post to one by C_Cole310 with one particular emoticon as her comment: one who is literally rolling on the floor, laughing her arse off and others who couldn't stop laughing at the caption due to how true it actually is. It was that evening where Fang planted a gentle kiss on Lightning's cheek after saying the following, just before they went to bed: "I'm so proud of you, my Sunshine. Thank you for everything. That caption you posted is one of the reasons why we're still together to this day. I love you, Claire. Sweet dreams...", with Lightning placing an ear to Fang's heart just so that the older Farron can hear Fang's heart beat, only for her and the rest of their family. The very people Fang will fight to the death for, the people who Lightning would do the same for.

Having an Army of Yun-Farron, those who are on Lightning and Fang's side, ensured that a certain couple in Bodhum got the message loud and clear, which they would all see come true to the very end.

Sonia and Kain smile on Fang and Lightning from the heavens above.

Proud of the women they became.
