Well this is it the last chapter I just want to say that I had a lot of fun writing this story (and who knows maybe I'll make a sequel someday) so I hope you all enjoy it! End it well Kiriyu!
The cloaked boy had gotten up and washed the stew pot at the cave's opening where the rainwater slid off he then put the now clean pot back into his backpack that he had with him
"Now where was I?" asked the boy as he poked the fire that the stew pot was once on trying to remember
"Oh yes just after Roxas and the mortal Xion fell in love, now I remember." Said the boy the smoke from the fire seemed to increase as it seemed to engulf both you and the cloaked boy
And so the story continues…
Three days after Roxas had fallen in love with the mortal Xion, Roxas sensed that the gateway to the world of the gods had been opened meaning it was time for him to return
However Roxas did not want to leave his beloved Xion behind so he proposed to her and promised her many things if she were to except his hand in marriage
Xion refused such gifts saying that the only thing she wanted was to be with Roxas
Roxas then used his godly power to summon a Pegasus a winged horse that would help fly Xion to the world of the gods when the Pegasus got close enough to the sky Roxas took a couple of the winged-horse's feathers and threw them into the night sky where they formed a constellation as a reward for carrying his beloved Xion to the world of the gods
When they reached the gods world Roxas wasn't surprised to see all of the gods waiting for him
The gods welcomed him back but asked why he had brought a mortal girl with him
Roxas explained that he and the mortal girl Xion were engaged which outraged some of the gods for you see unlike Axel who married a nymph, mortals had an extremely shorter lifespan and what's more they had no connection to the powers of nature like the nymphs had so making a mortal immortal would be outrageous
As a result the gods were unsure of this marriage
Roxas had Kairi and Axel (along with Larxene) on his side who believed that Roxas should be allowed to marry whom ever he wanted
But on the other side were Ansem and Vanitus who believed that mortals were simply worshipers and should not be given immortality
Sora could not decide for the reason that many of the gods were very serious about Roxas not marrying the mortal girl but he did not want to betray his queen
Riku wanted to assist Xion since she was one of his most loyal worshippers but he was unsure of what kind of uproar the marriage of a god and a mortal would cause so he stayed silent along with Sora
But there was also one last goddess who really did not want Roxas to marry the mortal Xion a young goddess named Namine (who was Axel's and Larxene's daughter) she wanted Roxas for herself so she spoke out against Xion and Roxas' marriage much to the surprise of her parents
Kairi being the goddess of love could understand why Namine was against the marriage of so Kairi spoke with Ansem and they proposed a competition that would hopefully solve this problem
Their would be a competition in which Xion and Namine would assist in the balance between light and darkness and the first one to prove how powerful their love would be for Roxas would gain Roxas' hand and to make it fair Roxas would return to his job and not see either of them until the competition began in one month
The gods and Xion agreed and Roxas return to his job like the condition to the competition had said (but not without giving Xion a quick kiss on the cheek when no one was looking) but Xion had no way to fight creatures of darkness or light so she flew on her Pegasus to her patron god Riku's kingdom in the gods world (which was closest to the dark side of the realm of light and darkness) and begged him to give her the power to try and win this competition
Riku agreed but asked for three conditions that Xion must follow first she must cut off a part of her long hair with a pair of magic scissors which would mean no matter what she tried her hair would never grow back as long as it used to be Xion agreed to this (though worried that Roxas wouldn't love her like he did before) and cut off her hair
Riku took the hair and dropped it into a bowl of dark water (from the realm of darkness) and added a small amount of crystal light which when he took it out of the bowl Xion's hair had fused with the crystal light and the dark water which made a sword with a blade of darkness but a handle and hilt of light and thanks to Xion's hair only she could use the sword and no one else
The second condition was that Xion must never use this sword on a creature of darkness and the last condition was that if she did he would take her soul and place it in a doll leaving her body lifeless forever
Xion agreed to both the conditions and thanked her patron god for his assistance then flew off on her Pegasus to the one god that could help her now that she had a sword Vanitus the god of war
When Xion had first arrived Vanitus had held a sword to her throat and asked her if she would prefer to be decapitated on the spot or be slowly tortured by having her limbs torn off (as was his usual greeting for people when he was in a bad mood) Xion said she didn't care as long as he would teach her how to use the sword that Riku gave her
Vanitus held the sword at her throat while looking into her eyes which showed that she was dead serious about him training her so Vanitus laughed and agreed to train her but he warned her he would not go easy on her when they spared Xion agreed to this and the training began
After one month the competition had begun Namine looked the same as before long blond hair (like her mother) a blazing look in her eyes (like her father) and over all beautiful though dressed for combat
Xion on the other hand was covered in scars from her training with Vanitus and her once long hair was now cut short thanks to her deal with Riku but she only cared what Roxas thought of her
Soon Roxas left the world of light and darkness and the competition had begun
Namine's job was to eliminate all of the creatures of darkness using her powers over fire and lightning (which she inherited from her parents) Namine's main plan was to simply out last Xion then Roxas would be hers
However after a couple of days Namine was starting to grow tired from using so much magic while Xion was still managing to hold on using her light-dark sword alone
Namine then came up with a plan she had managed to follow Xion the first day when she made her deals with both Riku and Vanitus so she waited until most of the gods viewing eyes were distracted after a few more days the only gods left to watch the competition were Roxas, Kairi, and Ansem so Namine used her power to cause an explosion of fire to happen to a small area behind the gods and that made them all turn around and investigate
During this she dropped down and pretended to be defeated and when Xion noticed that Namine was in trouble she rushed over (forgetting her deal with Riku) and destroyed a creature of darkness with her blade which caused her soul to leave her body and their she lied lifeless Namine quickly got up and continued to destroy the creatures and when the three gods returned and saw Xion's lifeless body they believed Namine had rightfully won
However Sora and Riku at that very moment appeared and told Ansem and the other gods that they had been watching even when they left since they were both the gods of light and darkness they could see everything that happened when the other gods weren't looking they explained what had happened and when Roxas found out he was outraged and tried to attack Namine but Riku and Sora managed to stop him
They decided that since Namine had cheated the rightful winner was Xion but Xion's body and a small doll (which looked very much like Xion) that contained her soul was all that's left of her
Roxas begged Riku to release Xion's soul back to her body but Riku said that she had made a deal with him he could not take it back but Ansem came up with an idea to go around the deal
That was when Ansem had revealed Roxas' two presents one of which was a ball of fire that using powerful winds would help lessen the burden of Roxas' battle with the creatures of light by absorbing them and destroying them as soon as they got to close (that would one day be called the sun) and the other was a large glowing stone that had been made to destroy any creature of darkness it also had the power to control the tides as a result of the water goddess Aqua's assistance in creating it
Ansem took the glowing rock and took a huge chunk of the rock and made a doll of it in Xion's image which included her now short hair (as was her and Riku's deal) and with her scars from Vanitus' training (which to the mortals appear as craters) where Riku placed Xion's soul into this "doll" as a result Xion became the immortal goddess of the moon and Namine as punishment for her jealousy was imprisoned inside the other present and quickly thrown into the daytime sky where she became the goddess of the sun
As a result Roxas was allowed to marry Xion but she would soon have to join Namine up in the sky on the nighttime side to help complete the purpose of the two presents.
This caused Roxas to become depressed at the thought of losing his beloved wife which was not the present's true purpose
So Riku managed to give Xion one last gift as a reward for her selflessness when she saved Namine he made the moon eventually start to turn dark and when the moon became completely dark she could descend to Roxas in the world of light and darkness eliminating all the creatures of darkness with her radiant glow while Namine (still imprisoned in the sun) would eliminate all of the creatures of light allowing Roxas and Xion to be together at last even if it was only once in a while
And that's the tale of the sun and moon
You look at the caves entrance and you notice the rain is coming to a stop
"Well it would appear the storm is over now I must continue with my travels" said the cloaked boy as he proceeds towards the cave entrance
You ask the man before he leaves "What is your name?"
The cloaked man stops at the cave entrance and says "Kiriyu"
A flash of lightning followed by a clap of thunder and the cloaked man called Kiriyu is gone
Okay so maybe the last part with Kiriyu wasn't necessary but I decided to do it anyway. I had a lot of fun writing this story so I hope you guys liked it! Maybe I'll write a sequel to this one day but I'm not sure at this point. So comment and tell me what you think of the story.
Okay as a way of apoligizing to all of you who had to come to this new channel I'm going to post an extra chapter to this story (think of it like a sequal) so stay tuned for more!
