The Darkside of the Moon Part 10; Resonance of the Soul
Disclaimer; Everyone talks about their experiences
Kairi
Everyone has recovered from the effects of Necron and Giygas's madness wavelength, to be perfectly honest nothing feels the same for me anymore. When I first started out I was aiming to be the best meister of our generation and now I know that it takes more than just my strength to get me through the trials I had to face. When I fought the Clown and Sora was wounded I realised that despite everything I had taught myself I still made mistakes and with every battle or training session only fuelled my passion to be as good as I could be.
I've been with the academy for a long time now and this experience has taught me many things, I'am strong and I will continue to fight with Sora for as long as I can. We are inseparable now. Master Yen Sid told me that it was the strength of my belief to never give up that ultimately gave me access to my new powers and helped me destroy Giygas but I never would have accomplished this if it hadn't been for my friends, I love all of them and I never want to lose any of them.
Even though this battle is over Master Yen Sid has told us that Dark Forces will always be on the move and there will always be people needed to protect the worlds and that's what I'am going to do. With Sora, Riku, Xion, Zidane, Garnet, Maximus and Terra we will keep fighting to protect this universe, for as long as we live.
Sora
A sacred dream is like a shattered memory. For the longest time I thought that I was alone, Vanitas had always been in my mind and had been there ever since I was a kid, I didn't want to worry anyone so I kept it secret until it was nearly too late, I know now to never keep things building up inside like that because it only ends up making things worse.
Kairi is my partner and she means everything to me and I love her with all my heart, after fighting against Riku and Maleficent with my sister Xion by my side all those years ago I thought I had found my true strength, but with Maximus and Zidane's help I have fully realised my true power. I know Kairi still wants to fight with the Academy to destroy the darkness and I will stand by her side, forever if I have too.
Even though I don't hear his voice in my head anymore, I still sometimes feel Vanitas in my heart. He's a part of me now and I guess I'll have to live with that now. As long as I have my friends and family I won't stop fighting.
Riku
Master Yen Sid has invited us to some kind of Award Ceremony; I can't help but feel like this might be one of the best days of my life! We beat Necron and saved the universe not bad for one day I think. God after all this shit I think me and Xion deserve a long relaxing holiday together, somewhere warm and where I can see Xion in that super-hot bikini she keeps stashed away, yeah she thinks I don't know about that, Oh Baby
I know I'm supposed to right something influential and thought provoking but that's not really my style. I guess I will say this, my friends mean everything to me. Not just Sora and Kairi but my new friends, Maximus and Zidane. They're both awesome guys and I'm so glad I got to meet them, even though there fully qualified meisters they still had the time and patience to become our friends and watch over us.
Zidane and I still have that bet and I can't wait to attend Maximus and Terra's wedding, I love weddings, Bring out the rum! I wonder if me and Xion will ever end up like that? Meh, we're still young and we're still horny as shit, well not as much as Kairi and Sora anyway those two will be having heaps of sex for the next few months! In all seriousness though I'm glad those two finally confessed, their good for each other and considering all the shit we've been through, we all deserve to be happy.
Any way that's me Riku, sighing out!
Xion
Why do I get the feeling Riku is going to write really inappropriate things, I just hope Master Yen Sid doesn't let him wright anything embarrassing in this journal. In case none of the others mentioned it in their passages, Master Yen Sid told us to write in his Journal our own reflection of this adventure as he chronicles the events that had transpired in the last few months.
Everything that's happened has made me appreciate my friends and family even more, I love Riku and I want to spend the rest of my life with him, I have my brother, Sora, by my side and I know he will leave me. My best friend Kairi as well as all my new friends has made this adventure all the more exciting.
None of the things that happened in this journey I regret, I'm glad it happened and I'm glad everything turned out well, we were all worried about Maximus when they brought him into the infirmary, he was in really bad shape. But luckily he survived and I'm sure Terra is very happy; she has big news to tell him and I'm sure he will be absolutely thrilled!

"Max, Max can you hear me?" said Terra as he groaned and moved slightly, he was lying in a hospital bed with many bandages around his waist. Zidane was standing against the wall with his arms crossed and his eyes closed, he hadn't said much since they had brought him in. Garnet was sitting next to Terra as Terra held Maximus's hand and cupped his cheek with the other.
"Terra…." Maximus said weakly as he opened his eyes, he sat up on the bed and gasped in pain, he looked pale and tired. "What happened?" he said as she smiled at him with tears in her eyes before laughing and tackling him in a hug, he gasped in pain as she tightened her grip on him, "Oh please don't do that again" she said as he looked to Zidane and Garnet in confusion, "Erm, I won't?" he said as Zidane chuckled and sat down next to Garnet.
"You gave us a right good scare there mate" he said, "Everyone was worried about you" said Garnet as she smiled, "Last thing I remember was using the Final Shine on Necron, after that it's just one big blur" he said, he sounded really tired and Terra could see he was trying to stay awake, "Your on painkillers right now, get some rest for now and just try and relax" she said she stroked his hair and kissed him on the cheek, "Thanks love" he said as he laid back and fell asleep almost instantly.
"When you going to tell him" said Garnet in excitement, "I was planning on telling him the other day before all this happened, I'll wait until he's recovered, I don't want to stress him out just know" she said as she moved so though that she could lie next to him, "What? What's happening?" said Zidane as he looked between the two girls, "Nothing" said Garnet in a sing song like voice, "Come on Garnet, tell me please?" he whined.
She just smiled and took his hand, "Come on let's leave them alone" she said as she pulled him out of the room, she turned round to wink at Terra who smiled back at her. The two left and Terra and Maximus were left alone, "So what is it?" he said causing her to jump, "Were you awake the whole time?" she said in surprise as he grinned and stretched his arms, "I heal fast remember?" he said as she sighed.
"So anyway what was it you wanted to tell me?" he said as she placed her hand on her stomach and looked to him, "Max, you're going to be a daddy" she whispered as his face looked shocked and he grabbed her hand, "Seriously?" he said as he grinned, she nodded with tears in her eyes, "We're having a baby" she said, he looked at her for a few seconds in silence before yelling with joy and hugging her tightly "We're having a baby!" he shouted as she giggled and hugged him back.
"I love you" she said he pulled back, "I love you too" he said and kissed her gently, they both fell back onto the bed and just laid there, basking in each other's presence, "I have a feeling everything will be ok from now on" he said as he looked out the window to the sky, he was home, he was happy and he was safe.

The next day was the day of celebration, everyone travelled from the ruins of the Academy to the one in Twilight Town, all of the students were cheering and laughing as confetti rained from the sky as a parade went through the halls, Kairi couldn't help but beam to everyone as they cheered her name and clapped as she and Sora went past, he starched the back of his neck and grinned in embarrassment as she waved to some people she recognised.
She could see Samus, Dredd and Reno in the crowd and she beamed at them, Reno winked while Dredd nodded and Samus took off her helmet to smile at her, Donald and Goofy and some of the other students were leaping into the air and cheering loudly as Riku and Xion walked past, Xion looked embarrassed as Riku blew fake kisses to all the girls screaming his name and making the peace sign with his hands.
Garnet was dressed up in an impressive looking in a long white strapless gown decorated with green vine-leaves from chest to waist, she was also wearing gold hair ornament, detached sleeves, a silver crown embedded with green jewels and a green jewelled necklace, she waved to all her friends from Alexandria as they shouted and cheered her name. Zidane was right next to her, he was dressed in much more proper attire and Kairi could see he looked very uncomfortable in it. He saluted Mickey and the others as they walked past them.
Finally Terra was walking in a giant mecha like suit that made her look both beautiful and intimidating, Maximus was still not strong enough to walk yet so he was with her on the mecha, they were both laughing and waving at everyone as their friends from The World of Magicite cheered them on, Maximus made a strange gesture to Reno, who retaliated with the same one and a grin as they walked past.
Eventually everyone reached the end of the hall and the cheering stopped as Master Yen Sid stood up and looked down the young warriors, "Kairi and her weapon partner Sora, you have given the title of a three star level meister, you are now no longer bounded by the academy's walls, you are free to cave out your own destinies, the same goes to you Riku and Xion. The four of you are now the top meisters of your generation, congratulations" he said with a smiled as Kairi leapt into the air in joy and tackled Sora in a massive hug.
Riku laughed at them before kissing Xion passionately, Zidane and Garnet cheered for their friends as did Maximus and Terra. Sora flashed Kairi his signature goofy grin and kissed her as she wrapped her arms around his neck, everyone started cheering as they looked to each other.
"What now?" he said as she looked to the others who grinned at her, "For now, just this. Sora and Kairi" she said before she kissed him again, he smiled as they kissed and the two stood there as everyone started partying and celebrating the night away.
"A sound soul dwells within a sound mind and a sound body"

In the middle of a dark endless sea of murky water stood a lonely solitary island, there was very little on the island, only a tree that curved out and rested over the sea, a bunch of ruined old wooden houses and a small forest of dead trees.
Standing there overlooking the dark waters was a figure dressed in a black coat that concealed his face from view. A portal of darkness opened up and another figure appeared, he walked up the other and stood next to him, "I've been to see him" said the taller one, the other, who was obviously still a young man gasped and turned to the other.
"And?" he said in a voice of interest, "He looks a lot like you" the other replied. The younger one sighed and looked away, "How long?" he said as he looked out onto the endless ocean of darkness, "It will happen seven years from now, be patient and train well. I will come for you when the time is right and then everything will be made clear" the older one said as he prepared to leave.
"Do you really think you can stop Kairi?" said the younger one, "Sora, Kairi, all of them they are unruly and therefore cannot be ruled, to challenge them would be to court with Death" said the older one as he approached the younger one and lowered his hood, "But you know all about that don't you Roxas?"
A/N; IT'S THE END! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Oh man, see I told ya Roxas would show up again….in the very last chapter….Oh well!
On reflection I enjoyed writing this but I do agree with it needing to be improved, there's a lot of grammar and continuity mistakes in the first few chapters that I'll probably have to correct, in the Final Mix version. All in all I really enjoyed writing this, if anything else I'm proud of myself for being able to write nearly 35 chapters of this so for anything else its let me write something that's long and multi chaptered. There will be a sequel and a prequel which will both be better than this, they'll be less complicated is what I mean. I'll take a break for a few days and then get started.
Thank you to everyone who viewed or at least read even one chapter, thanks to all those who reviewed, even though most of them stopped after the 13th chapter or something. Thanks for at least reading this and I hope to entertain more people in my following stories. This has been LenchkuMaximus and this was Kingdom Hearts; Resonance of the Soul
