Secret Ending
13 Years Later
"...And that Ichiro Lucis Caelum, is the story of how I met your mother, Asuka, and her friends from Hanzo Academy," Sora said to his son.
Ichiro was amazed. He wore a set of clothes that were like a mishmash of both his parent's clothing styles, and he had the same ribbon that his mother once wore, which was around her neck.
"Hmm… I guess after what happened before, Dad, I'm proud to be your son, and I'm sure Mom is too. As for Great-Grandpa, I know that wherever he is, he's watching over me with a smile on his face," he said to his father.
"And we're all proud that we brought you into this world, Son. Not only will you become a great king one day, but you'll also be ready to make your own way in the world, with your brothers and sisters," agreed Asuka, who wore a different outfit, but still looked very much the same as she did back then.
"Yeah, even if we do have our differences, it's because we're all part of one big happy family," added Rina, daughter of Sora and Minako.
"And through my mom, we carry the magic of friendship in our hearts, guys. Because together, we'll always stand strong against the darkness, no matter what it throws at us," smiled Skylight.
Serlena, Sirius, Serlena, Scarlet, Ivory, Verona, and Rei nodded at his words.
"Yes, the Magic of Friendship truly is powerful," admitted Minako.
"I agree. It may surround us, but it connects everything together in the Realm of Light, and is just as powerful as Kingdom Hearts," said Momo.
"Well, I can tell you one thing, everyone. If our enemies ever thought of trying to make us do something stupid, like have us succumb to darkness, I say we promise ourselves that we won't be fooled by them," suggested the daughter of Sora and Weiss.
"That sounds like a good idea, Ivory," agreed Rei.
"Yeah, my thoughts exactly," chimed in Verona.
"I'm glad to hear you say that," replied Blake.
"By the way, Dad. I was wondering if you could tell me the story of how you met my mother," said Iyashi.
"Um, what do you think, Sora?" asked Compa.
"Well, maybe some other time, Compa. Besides, after that story, It's almost time for our kids to go report to Master Yen Sid for their first mission as Team SSSSIIIVRR," said Sora, as he sat back on the throne.
"Oh well, I guess we'll hear it after we complete our mission, Father," admitted Serlena.
"Well, it's like they say, you win some, you lose some," said Ruby.
"I wouldn't have it any other way, Ruby," agreed Yang.
The others nodded in response, as they all looked at their children.
"Skylight, Serlena, Serious, Scarlet, Ivory, Iyashi, Ichiro, Verona, Rei, and Rina, go forth in the grace of the gods. Walk tall, and no matter where you go, the line of Lucis will always be with you. Your hearts will be your guiding key, always," Sora said to the future kings and queens of Lucis.
Soon, Team SSSSIIIVRR marched off into the distance, as Sora had his hand held in farewell, then he turned and walked back to the window, as he saw a newly constructed transport taking them to Master Yen Sid's tower, far beyond the reaches of Eos, his true home.
"I'm sure they'll be fine, Sora," assured Queen Kairi.
"Yeah. I know they will. Or rather, we know that they will," Sora replied quietly, as his other wives stood with him.
All the memories of Sora's previous adventures would always be a part of his heart, no matter what. And he knew that one day, after all the hardship he endured, there would always be a shining light that would cut through the darkness, and maintain balance for all time.
