All right, here it is, the end. I hope you like it, guys.

Thanks to all of you!!!!!

"Riku!" Sora tried to draw his attention. The youngest of the Jenova sons didn't blink.

"Sora, take Leon and go. Now." There was a deadly tone to his words and Sora seriously believed someone was going to die here.

"Like hell!" Leon took the distraction at take a shot at Kadaj's head. It managed to graze him as he ducked back, eyes narrowed hatefully. "This bastard's going down."

Kadaj laughed hysterically.

Sephiroth and Cloud were still staring at Riku. Sephiroth had a malevolent grin on his face. "Well, well, Riku's finally decided he's truly one of us."

"I'm not like you." Riku snarled. His voice didn't sound right.

The grin faded. "Don't try it, Riku."

"Why?" Riku laughed almost as Kadaj had. "I'm so tired of this! I'm killing you first!"

He jumped down, aiming his Keyblade at Sephiroth's skull. Sora leapt in the way, blocking the strike. "Know it off, Riku! This isn't going to fix anything!"

"Sure it will. He'll be dead and then so will the triplets. And then Cloud." He giggled, eyes bright on Sora. "See? I won't have to deal with any of this anymore."

"Go for it." Cloud stepped to the side, away from Sephiroth. "I don't care who kills him anymore. You know he'll just come back."

Riku sighed. "Yeah, I know."

Suddenly he whirled and stabbed Kadaj through the chest. Kadaj arched back and dropped to his knees. He barely managed to turn, eyes wide. "But, Brother…"

Then he slumped over.

He found arms wrapped around him and an ecstatic voice in his ear. "I love you right now. Seriously."

"Get off me, Cloud." Riku pushed him away.

Sephiroth did not look pleased. "I can't believe you did that. He's your brother."

"He's not my brother!" Riku stomped a foot. "He's a freak of nature that never should have existed!" He motioned to the unconscious other two. "They shouldn't either!"

Leon looked at Sora for an explanation. Sora shrugged. "Long story."

"So should we kill them, too?" Sephiroth strode over. He aimed Masamune at Loz's torso.

"No!" Sora jumped in. He pushed against Sephiroth's arm. "Don't kill them! They're still part of you!"

The older man narrowed his eyes dangerously.

"Look," Sora began, drawing everyone's attention. "I know they're annoying as heck. I personally can't stand them but they're still living beings."

Cloud glared but reluctantly nodded agreement.

"Can you bring back Kadaj?"

"Why the hell-?" Riku shouted but was cut off.

"Can you?" Sora asked Sephiroth seriously.

"I can."

"Good." Sora grinned evilly. All four other felt chills run down their spines. That expression was so completely wrong on the optimistic boy. "I have an idea I think all of us will benefit from."

Two weeks later, Sora, Riku, Cloud, Leon, and Sephiroth all lounged in Cloud and Leon's backyard. The entirety had been returned to it's original state and Sephiroth was barbequing. Riku and Cloud were out on the grass, tossing hoops at small polls.

Leon glanced at Sora sitting in the chair beside him, happy smile on his face as he watched the two in the yard. "So how'd you do it?"

"Huh?" Sora blinked.

"The remnants. How did you…?"

"Oh!" He chuckled. "It was easy. Maleficent always wanted kids. She took them right in."

"And they totally accept her as their mother." Sephiroth set a plate of steaks on the table. "Riku, Cloud."

The pair looked over, stopping their game.

Leon leaned back in his chair. "Those forty eight hours in the mental ward definitely helped those two."

Both of the other's nodded agreement.

"So," Sora laughed as the last two sat at the table. Food was passed around and he couldn't help a pleased sigh. Now this is what family get togethers should be like.
