Hurky: OMFG, sorry for the lack of updates! I have been extremely busy, like finals and my graduation.

Riku: But now we have all summer to do updates and stuff!

Sora: This chapter is sure to be good. Here's the next chapter of The Little Merboy 2: Return to the Sea!

As we had finished off in the last chapter, Skye sat at the dinner table with his parents. They all ate their dinner in silence. Skye was thinking about the dreams he was having. Finally, Sora spoke.

"Skye, we got a few calls from your teachers," he said. "It appears that you've been falling asleep in class a lot. Is everything okay? Or have you been up all night, playing video games again?"

Skye speared the broccoli on his plate with his fork and looked up at his father. "Uh, no." he lied. "I've been working on that upcoming math final, remember?"

"That's right." Kairi said to Sora with a nod. "He did tell me about that final." She turned to Skye, who was yawning. "But your teacher says that you've been falling asleep at your desk a lot. You need to get to bed earlier."

"Maybe." mumbled Skye. He stood up and took his plate. "May I be excused?"

Sora and Kairi let Skye leave the table and then went to the large living room to watch some TV on the couch. Skye was telling the truth about his final. He just didn't want to tell his parents about his dreams. They would just tell him that he was crazy.

Skye walked over to the couch, plopped down on it, and turned on the TV, where a movie was on. He felt a little too tired to channel surf. He lied down and closed his eyes. When he felt like he opened them again, he was on a yacht. There were white decorations strewn everywhere and there was a long red carpet with rose petals on them. There were also a lot of chairs and people were sitting on them. Up ahead of Skye was a couple and a minister. The woman of the couple wore a long, white wedding dress with a veil. The man wore a white tuxedo, standing next to the woman. Skye recognized it as a wedding. This couple was getting married. And they looked familiar to him, but how?

Suddenly, the scene changed to a hospital scene. Skye thought that someone had died, but it turned out that someone had been born. The same man and woman were there, only the woman was in a hospital bed, with her long, red hair damp with sweat, but she was smiling and holding a small baby while the man sat next to her, admiring the baby. Skye thought the baby was all too familiar. He saw the baby in pictures somewhere, but where?

"So, what will we name him?" asked the auburn haired woman to the spiky haired man. "I can't think of any boy names. I was hoping it would be a girl, and I had a bunch of girl names already picked out, but I guess I hoped too much."

The man smiled and chuckled a little. "How about-" he said until Skye felt someone picking him up and walking.

Skye opened his eyes to find his father, carrying him up the stairs in a piggy back ride. Skye had his head resting on Sora's left shoulder and his arms were slumped lifelessly. Sora was a strong man, since he was muscular, but Skye also didn't weigh a whole lot, either. He was slender because of all the swimming he does year-round.

"Mmph." mumbled Skye, still half-asleep.

"You fell asleep on the couch." explained Sora, right when he finished walking up the stairs and started down the long hallway. "Your mom and I don't really like you sleeping there. You need your bed."

He walked into his son's room and put Skye gently on his bed. Sora kissed his son on the forehead. "Good night." he said. Then, he walked off.

As Skye closed his eyes for the last time that night, he thought, Whoa, Dad hasn't carried me up the steps since I was a kid! He kisses me on the forehead every now and then, but...man, I've been REALLY sleepy...

Then, he drifted into a deep sleep.

Meanwhile, somewhere in the ocean, a merman with spiky red hair wearing a cloak was sitting in Ansem's old lair, looking into Ansem's old crystal ball at Sora, who was walking downstairs.

"I can't believe this!" said the man angrily. "How can Sora live happily, after defeating my mentor? In the past several years, he was able to marry that Kairi girl and mate to create that foolish boy Skye? I'll bet you that he was an accident."

"But Axel," said a slithery voice. "Sora and Kairi wanted a child. They tried a few times before they succeeded."

"Quiet, Flotsam." said Axel.

Ansem's eels, Flotsam and Jetsam both swam in and stopped to float in front of Axel.

"Ansem was the best mentor I have ever had." said Axel. "But that stupid merboy Sora defeated him. Why? Because he was self-centered, that's why! He only wanted to be a human. He didn't care about what would happen to the merpeople if he wasn't going to be here to take the throne when his mother and brother perished."

"He's not a merboy anymore." said Jetsam. "He's a human. He grew up to become a man."

Axel floated up. Because his cloak was so long, you couldn't have been able to see his tail, so it looked like he was standing if he was close to the ocean floor. He was silent for a minute.

"You know," said Axel, with his anger fading and his frown turning into a smirk. "Skye thinks of his father as a role model. I can meet Skye and expose him to what his father really is! Skye will never want to speak to his father again! Besides, those dreams I keep sending him aren't working anyway!"

Axel laughed to himself as the image in the crystal ball changed from Sora to Skye, sleeping peacefully in his room.

The next morning, Skye woke up feeling refreshed. He felt that he wouldn't fall asleep in math class. After eating breakfast, Skye grabbed his backpack and walked out the door. He walked the soft sands of Destiny Islands to Nicky and Rebecca's house. Axel was waiting by the sea shack, as a human. Axel had the ability to turn himself and anyone into a human. He stood there, bored.

"Where is this kid?" he asked himself. Right when he said his comment, he saw a spiky auburn haired boy walking across from him.

"Heh heh, showtime!" said Axel with a chuckle. I want to see how this Skye kid is.

Sora: He better not mentally contaminate my son!

Kairi: He's my son, too!

Riku: Where is that kid, anyway?

Hurky: He doesn't come to Authoress' Corner. Please review:-P
