EPILOGUE: Fufilled Desires.
(~Fufilled Desire-CRISIS CORE FINAL FANTASY VII~)
At Olympus Coliseum...
The village was left in devastation due to the fire that happened just days before. Only half of the population managed to survive the fire and escaped with minor injuries. The other half...did not make it in time. Survivors had said that the cause of it was a mad-man with silver hair and a long sword.
Hercules, having heard this, immediately rushed over to see if there was anything he could do, but for the first time ever, there wasn't anything to be done. His heart ached at the devastation that was left behind, and unable to believe that Sephiroth, whom he suspected was the one to cause all of this, had actually done it. Meg, Pegasus and Phil were with him and could only gaze around in guilt, shock and sympathy at the remains of the village. It only ached their hearts even more, especially when they had heard that the boat Zack had been sailing on had been attacked and sunk.
Back then, Hercules had been too late to save his friend. But then again, this was the burden of being a true hero; he couldn't always save everyone...not even his friends. But little did he know that Zack wasn't dead at all...
Still...Zack's ending didn't go so well.
Hades watched on from afar and sighed before poofing away back to the Underworld to gather up more souls for the River of Death, but to his shock and dismay, despite the annoyed black-spiky haired young man's last words, Zack's soul still wasn't in the Underworld. Where could he be, he wouldn't know.
Until then, the next challenges Hercules and his friends would be two years away, and they would be facing not just Hades who would be joining new allies for domination, but another threat.
In Traverse Town...
Aerith, sorrowed for what she sensed earlier, had made it back to the hotel were Leon and Yuffie were waiting, and for once didn't encounter any Heartless for the time being, meaning that things had settled down a little in the Realm of Light. When she met up with both of them, Leon and Yuffie both immediately went over to her, only to notice her saddened expression.
When she told them what she sensed, Aerith began to cry as she buried her hands into her face, sobbing. Leon was shocked, before lowering his head in guilt. He knew that Zack was a strong warrior, but perhaps his luck finally ran out and the Heartless possibly got to him. Yuffie, horrified at Zack's apparent demise while not knowing how Aerith sensed and knew this, threw herself into Leon's arms and sobbed, her tears soaking his shirt, making him uncomfortable.
He wasn't cut out in trying to comfort someone, especially someone as young as Yuffie. Still, Leon couldn't push her away. So, the only thing he could do was awkwardly rub the fourteen year old ninja girl's back to soothe here, before finding himself having Aerith's arms around him and Yuffie. He sighed.
This was going to be a long sad day. Though the three of them were unaware that there may be a chance that they will see Zack again someday.
In the Land of Dragons...
Mulan and her father gazed up at the cherry bolossems that bloomed in the trees of their garden at their home. They had just had a visit from the doctor who told Mulan's father to have three cups of tea in the morning, and three cups of tea at night everyday for his health. Despite this, he was a warrior, and knew that someday he would have to serve the Emperor. Mulan in the meantime, took it upon herself to look after her father now more than ever.
She thought about the young man she'd met weeks earlier, but hasn't seen again after he saved her from those mysterious black monsters which haven't appeared again for a while either. But there was something wrong happening. She had no idea how or why, but she could sense it. So, like her family, she prayed to her ancestors to help her find the answer to this mysterious case, yet knew that the answer wouldn't come to her at all.
But perhaps the small dragon Guardian that hanged from the ceiling above her might understand better in two years time...but not without a price of dangers that were ahead.
In Neverland...
Cubby and Slightly were carrying the treasure chest toward their hideout at the old tree and watched as Peter Pan flew above them. The two boys cheered for him as he flew up, before noticing Captain Hook and Smee who were hiding behind the bushes, preparing to make a surprise attack to snatch the treasure chest, but the two pirates were unaware of Pan watching them. Pan then surprised Hook by snatching the Pirate's hat before placing it onto his own head, laughing while Hook, angered to have been tricked yet again, yelled at him to give him his hat back, swearing revenge and the usual same old same old.
Life in Neverland continued on as normal, but it would slightly change in two years time.
In Disney Town...
The Annual Dream Festival was on again, and like the past seven years, nothing went wrong. The usual games happened, despite that, since Pete's banishment into another dimension eight years ago, his Pinball attraction was taken down since no one wanted to remember how much trouble that large trouble-making cat caused. Instead, it was replaced by an happy lit-up water slide of a large pool, suggested by Goofy which King Mickey happily agreed to.
Despite the fun activities, Mickey himself couldn't help but sense that someone he knew, a friend, met a tragic end, but he tried to cross it off as bad memories of the losses of Ven, Serenity, Grovyle and Jason, the disappearences of Aqua, Terra, and Ansem the Wise, and that Radiant Garden somehow vanished as well. But he was worried that someone else close to him also vanished. Still, he didn't want to ruin the Dream Festival. So, the young King decided to wait until the event was over to ask Master Yen Sid why he was feeling this way...
But someone would distract him and make him forget that meeting. Though Mickey was unaware, that in two years time, his greatest challenge would begin. He also sensed a familiar warm light lit up in a Universe far away, but would not know of it's power until his next adventure begins.
In Twilight Town...
After another hard day of a mission, Axel decided to take a detour and was now gazing out high from the Clock Tower at the scenary of the town and it's surrounding forests, while the sun was setting red. Rumor has it that the spiky-black haired swordsman lost his heart, according to the Superior, but Axel didn't care about any of that. How can he? He has no heart, and hadn't had one in the last seven years.
He looked down below and noticed three twelve year old children, two boys and one girl, happily playing catch with a frisbee and seeing that made Axel blink in slight surprise, as a memory of his childhood as a human entered his mind. He shook his head and smirked a little. Feelings were for those who had hearts.
Or so he thought. Because in two years time, he would meet a new and final member of the Organization that would change his mind, and change him forever.
In the world of Midgar...
There was still no sign of Zack, Cloud or Tifa. Reno and Rude had looked everywhere in the area Elena had suggested to them. When they rechieved orders to head back, they were instead forced to land somewhere close to the Ruins of Midgar when Militas Ultra's Helicopter nearly caused the two Turks to crash land. The two partners then found themselves surrounded by at least twenty Militas Ultra soldiers who trapped the duo in a circle. Reno and Rude both stood back to back, the former holding a tight grip on his EMR in his left hand.
But the two weren't worried. They'd been in this situation before. Reno then smirked and made a teasing comment on who would be the first to finish half of the opponents off, which made his best friend chuckle, taking up the bet. After all, there's no mission that's impossible for the Turks.
They then attacked their enemies. Reno's speed took out the faster ones of the Militas Ultra, and since he was built for speed, he was faster than these losers. He thrusted his EMR, clobbering two or three of his enemies, knocking them out with whacks, and highly-skilled kicks with his martial arts skills he was trained in. Rude's strength took out the stronger ones, being that he was built for power, fractured a couple of his opponents' skulls and thrusting them over him.
The two Turks continued to fight until all of their enemies in the area were defeated, which allowed Reno and his partner to make a hasty retreat back to ShinRa HQ in Edge, to make a report of their failure to find Zack, Cloud and Tifa, fully unaware of what really happened to the three of them.
Near Neo Tokyo on Earth...
A nine year old short brown-haired girl with green eyes, wearing her black, red and white school uniform, roller-skated her way to school after waving a goodbye to her father. She skillfully skated to catch up to her older brother, who being at sixteen, had short dark hair and eyes, rode on his bike. He usually picked on her due to being the youngest, but he still cared for his little sister, especially since their mother having passed away six years earlier.
The brown haired girl then smiled as she and her brother met up with his friend, a teenaged boy same age as him, with silver short hair, blue eyes and glasses, having a gentle and very kind smile, not to mention being so cute that the nine year old girl had a huge crush on him.
However, in just one year, her life was about to change.
In the land of Kanto on Earth...
An eight year old boy was fishing at a river which was his secret spot in fishing up water type Pokemon, dreaming of becoming a Pokemon trainer and he smiled at the exciting thought of it. To think that in just two years time, he could finally become a trainer and follow in his late father's footsteps since the man had passed away three years previously.
Little did the boy know, in his dream of becoming a trainer, it was just the start of a destiny for him and his own Pokemon partner who would become his true best friend for life.
On Destiny Islands...
The twelve year old spiky-haired boy, having been startled awake by his two friends, a thirteen year old silver haired boy with light blue eyes, and a twelve year old girl wih blue eyes, the girl who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere seven years previously with no memory of her past save for her name, who both laughed at the spiky-haired boy's embarrassment.
After a conversation, the trio then had a race, like they always had many times before that never got too boring. As usual, the two boys were competing against each other, while their friend trailed behind, laughing. The three of them were unaware, however, that the truth behind the mysterious heart in the spiky-haired boy's heart, the key-sword like thing the silver-haired boy once held but had forgotten due to a meeting years before, and the red-haired girl's memories would start in two years to come.
Which would change their lives forever.
In Neo Tokyo on Earth...
After feeling uncomfortable due the unusual sale Molly's mother was doing by seeling diamonds and so many costumers going all crazy, Serena, upset with her grades, having met a rude but very handsome man with short black hair in sunglasses who made bad remarks by calling her stupid, incredibly lazy, and even worse, commented on her hair by calling her 'Meat-ball head', having gone home only to be kicked out and forced back to the library when her mother saw her grades, and finally after having studied just to sastify her mother, made it back home and was now lying on her bed in her room, exhausted.
Serena hadn't even borthered to change out of her school uniform just yet, and instead had fallen asleep, only to be startled awake when her window slammed shut, and turned to see Luna, the black cat whom she saved from three younger boys who harrassed her earlier in the morning when she was late for school as usual. Serena was then terrified when Luna began to talk, and the latter was then telling the terrified teen that, despite some hesitation but had been watching her, is a chosen warrior, a Sailor Scout of the Moon, before noticing that Serena was still scared.
To make her believe the cat, Luna then leaped into the air, and with some magic, a around golden locket materialized before it landed softly on the quilt of Serena's bed. It was a beautiful locket with four small crystals of red, blue, yellow and green inside it, and in the middle, was a cresent moon with a pink round circle above it. Serena, her fear replaced by surprise, picked up the locket and gazed at it's beauty.
This was the starting point of her own destiny that would change everything.
Back in Midgar...
Tifa had continued to traverse her way around in search for Cloud, making her way to the port of Junon after hitching a ride in a car to avoid the Mines where Midgar Zoloms roamed. As she thanked the driver for the lift, she paused when an unfamiliar large man, about three times taller than any average man, in a black coat, entered some kind of portal of darkness to head back to the wherever he came from.
Despite that the darkness of the portal looked dangerous, Tifa suddenly sensed that Cloud had already left the world and so, deciding to try her luck, she raced towards it and made it through the Corridor of Darkness just in time, finding herself in a strange tunnel place, before finding a door of light ahead of her. As she entered it, she found herself in an unfamiliar place...
She found herself in Traverse Town where her journey began.
Cloud had changed clothes to begin his journey to find Sephiroth. He now wore an outfit that was similiar to a SOLDIER 1st Class, except that one shoulder pad was missing, the other one had nuts and screws in it, his left hand had silver gear-like gaunlet around his wrist above his black glove, his right glove being fingerless, and to add to his journey, a red tatered cape that reminded him of someone's cape, but couldn't pin point on what it was.
None the less, as Cloud gazed at the field before him, he then shethed Zack's Buster Sword onto his back, before attatching the Starshard onto a motor cycle, ShinRa improved, which glowed along with the motorbike. Taking the hint, Cloud climbed on and started the engine before doing a bit of a wheely and then took off in high-speed.
As he did, Cloud and his bike then vanished into a portal crated by the Starshard now that it was attatched to the motor-bike, leading the young swordsman on his long journey to find Sephiroth and settle the score with him once and for all.

KINGDOM HEARTS: CRISIS CORE.
Back in Neo Tokyo on Earth...
(~To be Continued from Opening of FFVII-CRISIS CORE FINAL FANTASY VII~)
It was early evening, and the moon was shining brightly in the sky above the city's lit up lights, including Neo Tokyo's tower. Two figures, one cat, another a young girl in an outfit no one has seen before, were racing through the streets towards a store where the girl's destiny has fully began in a great war for peace of Earth that would lead to more battles through out the next four years.
Molly was being attacked by a hidous monster who had disgised herself as her mother earlier and was now choking her to steal her energy, talking about Earth about to be destroyed, when...
"Let her go!" A new voice demanded behind the monster, who turned her head to see a young girl, no older than fourteen, with long blonde hair with buns on the top, two red smooth rubies on them, wearing a white outfit her fuku and sailor scarf blue, her boots red with white on top, a golden tiara in place, red bows on the front and back, long gloves, and had blue eyes, as she repeated her demand, "I said let her go!"
"And who are you?" The monster asked, skeptically.
The girl, startled as she realized she couldn't give away her new secret and was nervous at her first battle, began hestiatedly before thinking about what her companion, Luna, had called her earlier, before deciding that her new persona would do to hide her real idenity.
So, she boldy introduced herself, with some confidence.
"I am Sailor Moon, Champion of Love and Justice!"
Her destiny has been began; Serena is now officially the real Sailor Moon.
