AN: Yooooo wassup guys :D. Hope you all are doing well. Good news about this chapter, there will be no 18 plus chapter and that there's gonna be romantic fluff stuff hehe UwU. So, without further ado, let's hop right into it.

Sora and Kairi walked through the bamboo forest. It seemed quiet and peaceful as they happily talked away.

Sora sighed in contentment. "Did I ever tell you that kissing you feels like paradise?"

Kairi giggled. "And did I ever tell you that your kisses always make me the happiest?"

The two chuckled. Suddenly, both their Gummiphones gave a brief ring. They picked the phone out of their pockets to see what it is.

"It's a message from Mickey. Let's see what it says." Sora said as he and Kairi opened their phone to see what message the king.

"Wonder what he has in store for us?" Kairi wondered. "A mission from Yen Sid maybe?"

What they saw surprised them.

"Whoa!" Sora exclaimed.

"There's going to be a huge party going on in Beast's castle in five days," Kairi read. "And we are most welcomed to join if we wish."

"Of course, we'll all be there!" Sora happily said. "I just hope everyone's not busy though."

Kairi smiled before continuing to read. "I promise to you all it'll be fun. I'll even bring Minnie and Daisy along with us too."

"Nice! Just the thought of everyone gathering there for the party and having fun."

"And the dance," Kairi added as she closed her eyes and clasped her hands together. "It always made me smile."

"Oh? Dancing?" Sora said.

Kairi turned to her lover. "Yup. Would a party be called a party without some dancing?"

Sora chuckled. "You always love dancing. Luckily, I love to dance too."

"You and me both."

Suddenly Kairi had an idea as she stepped closer and closer to her lover. Sora looked to Kairi as she gave him a toothy smile.

Sora smiled back. He had a good feeling on where this was going. "What do you have in mind princess?"

Kairi slid her arms and wrapped around Sora's. "Let's say…we practice?"

"Aww, but I'm tired," Sora teasingly pouted.

"Come on! It'll be fun!"

Sora decided to get cheeky. "What happens if I don't do it?"

"Oh, then no kisses for you then."

"On second thought, why not?" Sora quickly said.

Kairi gave a mischievous smile. "Hmph! That's what I thought. Come on!"

Sora chuckled. "You mean right now? In the middle of this forest?"

"Well, yeah, I don't see why not? Besides, doesn't it feel more romantic?" Kairi said.

"Hmm, you have a point."

The Princess of Hearts laughed. "Dummy…now come on! Let's do it!"

"Ok, ok."

Kairi stood in front of Sora as he offered his hand to her, to which she gladly accepted.

"Don't we need some music so we can get into the mood?" Sora asked.

"No worries. Besides, I'll lead this dance."

Sora smiled. "Ok."

The two got into their dance positions, with Sora's right arm wrapping the back of Kairi's while her arm rested on Sora's shoulder. Sora's left hand and Kairi's right hand then held on to each other, while keeping it raised up. This was how Minnie taught them. Kairi began moving to the right, to which Sora followed her. Minutes later they began to happily dance away as they smiled and laughed.

Suddenly, Sora pulled Kairi close as their face were now inches from each other. He wrapped his arm around her back, while the other at the back of Kairi's head.

"How did I do?" Kairi asked.

"You did good, milady," Sora said.

"Told you it's gonna be fun~."

"Not as fun as what I'm about to do you princess~."

"Oh~? And what do you think it is~?"

"You know already~."

They slowly closed their eyes as both their lips inches closer and closer.

Noon almost came as Mulan set out to the forest to get bamboos and supplies for her home. It was a quiet walk at the forest. Suddenly, she heard…what seems to be…clashing of blades from a distance. She wondered…who would be sparring in a place like this? A master training his student perhaps?

"Come on, let's find out what it is," Mulan told her horse.

The two followed the sound of blade clashing against each other. They finally arrived to see a girl and a familiar looking boy clashing a sword-like weapon against each other. The two had smiles on their expressions, enjoying their sparring matches together.

"That's my girl!" the boy said as he clashed with her.

"And THAT's my lazy bum!" the girl replied.

They then had their blades locked against each other.

"Wow…you are looking beautiful up-close Kairi~."

"Why thank you Sora. Same goes for you~. I can kiss you again~."

"Wait…Sora?" Mulan remembered. That was him?! He…looked different from the last time he saw the boy. "Sora! Is that you?"

The boy and the girl stopped what they were doing as the boy widened his eyes in surprise.

"Mulan!"

The warrior maiden ran to the boy and gave him a hug before she let him go. "It has been too long Sora! How are you, my friend?"

"I'm doing awesome, thanks!"

Kairi then walked beside Sora.

"Oh, and is this your bride to be?" Mulan teased.

"Well, when you put it that way, yes, she's my girlfriend."

Mulan widened her eyes. "Congratulations! I pray that you will have a happy marriage."

"Thanks Mulan."

"I'm Kairi, it's nice to mee you."

"I'm Mulan, it's a pleasure to meet Sora's bride to be."

Kairi smiled and nodded. "Sora's told me all about you."

"Oh, did he now?" Mulan then ruffled the boy's hair. "I bet it's something nice?"

"Well, duh, of course," Sora answered.

The three laughed.

"Oh, let's head back to my home. You might need a rest after all that training. Don't worry, my family isn't home, they're off to another city for days."

"Sure!" the keyblade couple said.

"Hop on my horse," Mulan said.

"Sweet!" Sora said excitedly. "We've never ridden a horse before!"

Mulan chuckled. "Then consider this a new experience."

Off the three went to her home as Sora and Kairi rode on top of the horse with Kairi in the front and Sora in the back. Mulan walked on-foot and guide her horse.

"Mulan, you sure you don't want to ride on the horse too?" Kairi asked. "We don't want you getting tired."

Mulan smiled at her kind personality. "Don't worry about it. I can use the exercise."

As they continued with the journey, Sora wrapped his arms around Kairi's waist, snuggling as he did so, rubbing his face behind Kairi's soft hair.

"Hmm…you smell good your majesty~," Sora whispered.

"Then I want you to hold me closer~," she whispered back.

"Say no more~."

Finally, they reached Mulan's home. Sora and Kairi stopped what they're doing as they hopped down the horse.

"Welcome to my home. Make yourselves comfortable," Mulan said.

"Thanks!" the two replied.

The keyblade couple looked around.

"Nice place! Looks traditional," Sora commented.

"I think we have a place like this in Destiny Islands," Kairi remembered. "But nothing this beautiful."

Mulan smiled. "Thanks you two, it's nothing. This is but my humble home, that's all. Oh and, don't forget to take off your shoes."

The couple looked around as Mulan brought her horse to the stable. They got on the porch of the house as they took off their shoes. The couple went in and looked around.

Kairi smiled. "I love this place. Looks traditional, but it's pretty."

"Yeah, like you~" Sora said. "Minus the traditional part. I mean, well, even if you look traditional yourself, you'd still be pretty anyway-"

His words were cut off by Kairi's kiss. "I know Sora~."

Sora smiled as he wrapped his princess in a hug. They rocked back and forth for a good few minutes before they lean in for a kiss. Their lips were inches from one another before…

"Ahem," came the voice of Mulan they instantly turned their heads to see Mulan standing there shaking her head as she chuckled. "Sorry to bother you lovers, but I just want to tell you two that I'm going into the fields to train."

"Oh? Training?" Sora said, as he and Kairi still holds one another in their arms.

"Yes. You want to see me train?"

"Sure," Kairi said as she and Sora let go of each other.

"Let's go!" Sora happily said.

They arrived at a field not too far from Mulan's home surrounded by grass.

"Alright, let me demonstrate my training," Mulan said.

The couple nodded as Mulan started. She began to squat as she spread her legs apart, putting her arms together near her sides. Suddenly, she rose before performing punches, kicks, and many squats. She waved her arms and moved her feet graciously. Mulan then jumped high performing a final kick in the air before landing on the ground safely and into her squat again. She stood up fully, putting her fist and her palm together, bowing. Sora and Kairi looked in absolute awe and amazement, not even Aqua, Terra, Riku and Ven could do something like this. Mulan could be as skilled as Tifa and Leon.

"That's amazing!" Sora and Kairi said.

"Thank you. It's called Kung-Fu."

"Kung-Fu?" Sora echoed.

Mulan nodded. "It is a fighting style and discipline that aims to teach one to have a strong mind and body."

"That sounds amazing."

"It is. I've been training for quite a while already."

"Can you teach us?" Sora asked.

"Sure, but we'll have to start at the basics first. Let's start with the horse stance. You have to stay like this for a minute."

As a demonstration, Mulan spread her legs apart, far from each other as she squatted.

"That's it?" Kairi questioned.

"Doesn't seem too hard," Sora observed.

Mulan laughed. "It'll surprise you two, I guarantee." She stood up fully as she walked over to the couple. "Now, I want you guys to do what I did."

"Okay," Sora said as he and his girlfriend bent down.

"Spread your legs further and squat down lower."

"Huh, this isn't too bad," Sora commented.

Mulan smirked. "Alright then, let's begin the training."

An hour went by as Sora and Kairi collapsed on the ground in exhaustion. They panted heavily with sweat dripping down on them.

"I…can't feel…anything…" Kairi said.

"M…me too…" Sora added.

Mulan chuckled. "Never underestimate the training of Kung-Fu you two."

"How did you survive?" Sora asked.

"Oh, just sheer perseverance, nothing else." she replied as she sat down beside them. "Take a rest you two."

There was a brief silence among them as they take in the fresh breeze.

"Mulan," Kairi spoke up.

"Yes?"

"Sora said you dressed up as a man to get into the military right?"

"I do."

"Why do you have to dress up as a man to do it?"

"Ah yes, I didn't tell Sora, Goofy and Donald about it because we fighting those dark creatures at the time. Well, there's a rule in the military that women should not be allowed to be in the military."

Sora and Kairi were surprised as they sat up right.

"What? Why not?" Kairi asked.

"Because I live in a society where women do not stand on equal footing as men, and that women are treated as nothing more than secondary."

"That's horrible…"

"I would never treat Kairi as lower than me," Sora proclaimed as she wrapped his arms around Kairi.

"Sadly, that is the society I'm living at. Nothing changed much, especially after Sora, Donald, Goofy and I saved China."

"I didn't know you had to go through such lengths to serve your country," Kairi said.

"Oh, I do want to serve my country at times and be free from social norms. But why I joined the military is because I had to save my father. You see, China at the time was in trouble because the Huns are invading. So, the emperor called for every man from different families to fight and defend our country. My father was very ill and cannot fight well, so I had to take his place, disguise myself as a man and fight for him. It was tough, having to be in the military while disguising myself as a man, but eventually, they came to respect me."

Kairi smiled. "That's wonderful."

Sora nodded. "Yeah. It really shouldn't matter if you're man or woman. They should always treat each other equally. The keyblade chooses both boys and girls to fight against the darkness."

"I like the way the keyblade thinks," Mulan said.

"I bet the military is tiring when you have to do Kung-Fu training like this," Sora said.

"Yes. But…that's…not even the half of it. And you're lucky if you only get Kung-Fu training."

That got Sora and Kairi's curiosity piqued.

"What do you mean?" Kairi asked.

Mulan become quite for a moment, before opening her mouth to speak. "It's…not always going to be rough and tough training in camp. Soldiers are to be bred for war. That means they have to be ready for any worse-case scenario. I was…not prepared for it."

"Something kind of happened to us," Sora spoke up. "We were going to fight Organization 13 in their final stand but…we weren't so lucky. A giant wave of Heartless got us. Our bodies were destroyed, but our hearts remain intact. Thankfully, I was able to bring everyone back with Kairi helping me."

"I'm glad you and your friends are safe. Shang's father wasn't so…lucky. He and his men were killed."

Sora and Kairi looked at each other in worry.

"What…happened? If you don't mind us asking," Kairi said.

"We were on our way to assist the Shang's father when we stumbled upon a burnt down village. Not only were the armies killed, but every other innocent villagers…the ones that can't fight back…were killed. Children too…" The two looked at Mulan in horror and worry in their eyes. "They were all gone…no amount of magic like both of yours can bring them back…our enemies were ruthless…"

Mulan shut her eyes tightly. She felt arms surrounded her as she looked to see Sora and Kairi hugging her.

"We're sorry," the couple said.

Mulan hugged them back. "Xie xie…"

Back at the Gummiship, the couple took a bath together in the shower. After they finished taking a bath, Kairi sat down on the bed, thinking of what Mulan said. She can't help but feel worried about what Mulan said. She didn't experience war herself, but she hoped she'll never have to. The princess DEFINETLY does NOT want war happening on her friends. Especially for Sora…

"Hey honey," Sora said, knocking her out of her trance as she looked at him. "You alright?" He then sat next to Kairi.

"It's just, what Mulan said about war troubles me."

"Yeah, I understand. I don't want to lose you too."

Kairi leaned against Sora as they fell on the bed. Sora then wrapped his arms around Kairi. "I don't want that on any of us. I don't want to lose our family, especially not you. After what we've been through, after we almost lost our hearts forever, to almost not being able to save you in Quadratum…"

"I know…but you won't lose me that easy. Honestly…I would rather we die together instead…I thought I lost you all forever back at the graveyard. I thought it's the end for me too…trust me, we will NOT go through that again…"

They held hands, feeling each other's heartbeat. The two then shared reassuring kisses to one another, sighing in relief as they did so.

Evening came as Mulan, Sora and Kairi gathered at the dinner table to eat.

"So, this is how you hold a chopstick," Mulan instructed.

Sora and Kairi laughed as they fumbled in handling the chopsticks.

"This was easier when I use the chopsticks at Quadratum," Sora remarked.

"Because the chopsticks look very different from what we're holding now silly," Kairi pointed out.

"Oh yeah…"

As the two struggled to hold the chopsticks, someone called out from Mulan's home.

"I'll get it," Mulan said as she got up and went out.

"Kairi…I think I got it…" Sora slowly grabbed a food shakily. "I GOT IT!" Suddenly, his fingers fumbled on the chopsticks as the food he grabbed and the chopsticks fell on the table. "Ugh…why?!"

The Princess of Hearts giggled. "You'll get it next time handsome."

"Sora! Kairi! I have news!" Mulan's voice came in as she arrived at the dinner table.

"What is it?" Sora asked.

"Donald and Goofy were here."

Sora's face lit up. "Really?!"

"They left. They said they were busy. They told me they said "hi" to you."

"Oh, ok then."

"I've got this from them."

Mulan showed them object that she was holding at her hand.

"A letter?"

"Looks like an invitation letter."

"I've never seen much of this letter before. I've only seen them from foreigners when they visited China. I think you opened it from here?" Mulan widened her eyes in surprise as she finished opening the envelope. "Oh, Belle is having a party in the castle. The other princesses are invited!"

"Really?!" Sora and Kairi said in surprised.

Mulan nodded. "I can't wait! I miss them so much. The party will start in just five days."

"Funny you should say that…" Sora began.

"Because we are invited too!" Kairi finished.

The warrior looked in surprised. "That's wonderful! I'm glad you two can come along."

"Yeah, we also haven't gone to Belle's world yet too. So, this is a good opportunity for me to spend time there with Sora."

"Oh, which reminds me. When are you two getting married~?" Mulan teased causing them to blush.

"Mulan!" the couple cried.

Mulan chuckled. "Alright, alright. How's the food by the way?"

"It's good," the couple said happily.

"I'm still trying to get the hang of the chopstick though…" Sora said.

"But it was fun nonetheless," Kairi said.

"I'm glad. We'll be doing another activity tomorrow, that is if you two are up to it. Don't worry, tomorrow will be a bit more relaxed."

Tomorrow

"Let's began everyone! I want you all to sit down and relax. Nothing more."

"Wait, that's it?" Sora questioned.

"Yup."

Sora and Kairi sat down as they were told.

"Well, maybe this isn't so bad."

"Now, I want you two to relax. Release the tension. Lie down." The couple repeated what she said as they laid down. Minutes passed as they all felt relaxed as Mulan sat back up. "When one trains in Kung-Fu, it's not always about fighting. It's about finding inner peace within yourselves. It's why the soldier in the military must learn to not be tense. Kung-Fu is not only used for fighting, but for health too."

"That's interesting," Kairi commented while she and Sora are still lying down.

Hours passed as Mulan went to the market. The Keyblade couple were back at Mulan's home with Kairi now lying top of Sora as he wrapped his arms around her.

"You know, if our training is going to be about us cuddling like this forever, I'd say it's the best training ever~."

"Oh, you silly lazy-bum~."

"I mean, won't you like it too your majesty~?"

"Of course~."

They felt nothing but pure warmth in their hearts. Oh, how they wish they can stay like this forever and ever. Sora then switched places, lying on top of Kairi as he smiled at her. Sora went down to Kairi's neck.

"May I princess~?"

"You may~. But slowly please?"

Sora nodded. He slowly kissed and licked her neck.

"AH!" Kairi moaned as she wrapped her arms around Sora's waist tightly.

"Oh…I love it when you moan for me…so…beautiful…" Sora complimented.

After a few minutes, Kairi then got on top of Sora as she did the same to him. Sora moaned in pleasure, wrapping his arms around Kairi's waist.

"How is it that a boy like you could…moan so …cute?" Kairi wondered.

Eventually they kissed at each other, getting into each other's mouths. Saliva began dripping out of their mouth as they began to drown in yet another ecstasy.

Days later

"You sure you don't want to come with us?" Sora asked.

"It's alright," Mulan assured him. "I have someone else send me there."

Sora nodded his head.

"Hope to see you there," the couple said.

Mulan smiled "Of course." She then pulled the two in a hug, to which the two returned it. "Stay safe. And I pray you two have a wonderful and happy love life."

"Thanks," the two said.

Kairi and Sora left her house as they waved her goodbye. They set out back to the forest where their Gummiship is, ready to spend another romantic time at Beast's Castle.
