Well, here's the first epilogue for now. I'll get the others up and running as soon as I get the chance.

I apologize if this one's a helluva lot shorter than most epilogues I've ever written, but I had no idea what else to add in there, you see. I mean, it's just our heroes trying to figure out what to do now but then are lead on by the king's dog, which is meant to foreshadow that their adventures is far from over and that Castle Oblivion is right around the corner.

But I'll admit, I had fun adjusting the dialogue in it, with what little I had to work in for a little more giggles.

That being said, I hope you enjoy this anyways.

I own nothing of Kingdom Hearts except my OCs.

Read, leave me a review, but flames are unacceptable.

Epilogue 1: A New Mission

It was rather strange where the party found themselves. One moment, they were inside the realm of darkness as it began to disappear after the defeat of Ansem, and now they are in an unfamiliar territory surrounded by green trees and grass, with a long winding path that stretches out seemingly endlessly. Not to mention, it is a rather uncannily peaceful environment with birds chirping in the distance, even though they haven't seen any.

Side by side, Sora and Luna walked along the road alongside a now normally dressed Donald and Goofy with Medea trailing along behind while attached to her master's shadow. They have no idea how long they've been walking down the path, nor do they know what could be beyond the never-ending path waiting for them, if at all.

But Donald had another question on his mind. "Well, now what do we do?"

"We've gotta find Riku and King Mickey," Sora replied.

"But, uh, where do we start lookin' for that there door to the light?" Goofy wondered.

"What I'd like to know is how the hell long are we gonna continue walking down this damn road," Medea complained.

"For that matter, how will we know whether we'd be able to find them?" Luna wondered, a little worried on their lack of progress.

Those were all very good questions to ask…but unfortunately for all them, none of them have an answer to any of their own questions. All of them stopped and sighed in dismay at their lack of a solution, shaking their heads in displeasure.

Now what are they gonna do?

But then, the sound of a dog barking abruptly caught their attention, forcing all of them to look up to spot a yellow dog with black ears and tail trotting in front of them with something in its mouth.

Luna, being who she is, couldn't resist stepping over for a closer look. "Oh, hello there, doggie. Are you lost?"

Donald seemed to recognize the canine. "Pluto?"

Medea turned to the duck in confusion. "Ya know this mutt?"

"Hey, Pluto. Where've you been?" Goofy asked.

But upon closer inspection, the boys – particularly Donald and Goofy – realized that the white thing Pluto was carrying in his mouth was not just a paper. It was an envelope – and it bore the familiar shape of a mouse head, just like King Mickey's! Could this possibly mean that he managed to send a message to them?

"Gawrsh, that's the king's royal seal!" Goofy deduced quickly.

Luna was taken aback at that. "Is it? Then how did this cute dog get ahold of it?"

"Hey, have you seen King Mickey?" Sora asked the dog, hoping to appeal to him.

Pluto only stared at Sora for a moment, then looked over to a curious Luna, but then suddenly turned around and started to run off with the envelope, convincing them to give chase.

Medea groaned at this. "Great. The dog wants us to play 'tag' with it."

Luna straightened up and started running ahead of the group. "Wait! Please, wait! We have to know whether it's from Mickey."

Not long after Luna started to run off with Medea following close behind her from her shadow, Sora, Donald and Goofy immediately chased after them down the road with more vigor than they did earlier. Now they have reason to keep going despite all the odds stacked heavily against them. They have their other friends to find and come back home with, and it's certain that they're out there, searching for a way to return to the realm of light after the ordeals of the Heartless during the reign of terror under Ansem's machinations.

What awaits them just beyond the road beyond their line of sight? Will they be able to find their friends? None of them know for sure what waits for them now, but come what may, they'll find Riku and King Mickey and – once they know they've survived the realm of darkness, they'll come home to their loved ones waiting for them.
