Kingdom Hearts Vol. 15 Hope, Faith and Joy
It has been five years since Anti-Sora was defeated by Sora and the others. So far there has been no attempt to take over the worlds and Sora, Kairi and Riku have enjoyed the fact that they haven't aged since that day the beat Anti-Sora. Master Yen Sid has retired leaving Riku to take his place, but he still pops in every now and again to observe Riku's data of the worlds. Lea and Mickey along with the students have formed a peace keeping group. While the other Keyblade Masters, like Roxas sr., Xion sr., Terra sr., Aqua sr. and Ventus sr. etc. have all taken official teaching jobs for those future Keyblade Wielders. Sora and Kairi have gotten married and are expecting triplets. After the fall of Anti-Sora they didn't waste anytime into starting a relationship they had failed before and they weren't gonna let it happen again, now that they weren't aging and found that they could very well be immortal they wanted to spend eternity protecting others for the powers of darkness. The Seekers of Darkness hadn't shown themselves for awhile but our heroes were waiting, Riku knew that if anything they were probably gathering more followers and if he had heard any rumors that he would look into it right away.
Ansem the Wise: Anything Riku?
Riku: No, just another dead end.
Eraqus: Riku, you need a break my friend, you work too hard to keep the worlds safe, let us take over for awhile or call in Mickey's and Lea's team. Do they have a name yet?
Ansem the Wise: No. It's not that hard to figure out a name either, maybe something like Key to the Light or something.
Riku: I have too much to do, no time for breaks. When we catch them I will have a rest but knowing that any moment we could be attacked, I just can't.
Eraqus: Fine, I'll call the team in to hunt down the Seekers, where's the last place they were spotted?
Riku: They were in Hallow Bastion, killing and recruiting for their army.
Eraqus: Do you want me to call Sora and Kairi?
Riku: No, we can't bring them into this well, not Kairi anyway.
Ansem the Wise: Oh right, how is she?
Riku: Two months left. They've been thinking about names actually.
Eraqus: Well?
Riku: They're not sure yet.
In Disney Castle the King and Queen were celebrating five years of peace with a festival in the honor of the X-Blade which had disappeared after the fall of Anti-Sora, the others thought that they could only use it when needed. So they hoped they'd never see it again, but they knew that with the growing number of followers that the Seekers were gaining it wouldn't be long until they found themselves in trouble again.
In Destiny Islands Sora and Kairi were getting ready for their upcoming children and a new chapter in their lives.
Kairi: Sora?
Sora: Yeah?
Kairi: Can you feel that?
Sora: We have a visitor, Xehanort.
Kairi: It's been five years, can't he just leave us alone?
Xehanort: No, not anymore, I need you to summon the X-Blade once more.
Sora: Get out of our house!
Xehanort: I said no! Give me the X-Blade now!
Xehanort charged at Kairi in an attempt to force the X-Blade to re-appear but it didn't and Xehanort came to a sudden stop. Sora rushed for Xehanort and slammed him on the ground and summoned his Keyblade pointing it between Xehanort's eyes.
Sora: You dare do that again and you won't get up.
Xehanort: Fine. One day I will return and then you'll have no choice than to give me what I desire. Isa! Briag! Now!
In a blink of an eye the shack fell on top of Sora, Kairi and Xehanort. Soon afterwards Isa and Braig could be heard laughing in the distance. Sora started to move around under the ruble to find Kairi, he found her in an unconscious state, he went to move her but she signaled back to him to stay where he was. Sora was thankful to see that she wasn't hurt. The sky turned black when Xehanort, Isa and Braig combined their negative energy into a moogle sized ball of energy.
Sora: Kairi, we have to move now into the water near the cave.
Kairi: Right behind you.
Xehanort: I hope you both enjoy eternal rest! Say goodbye to the peaceful world all of you have created! I must say Sora and Kairi, I'm a little disappointed with the way you've met your end. Braig, Isa now.
In a flash half of the island fire and Xehanort, Isa and Braig had left, Sora and Kairi were safe for now. Later Sora called Riku and Kairi called Mickey to be on the lookout for Xehanort.
Sora: He thinks we are dead.
Riku: He left in a bit of a hurry then?
Sora: Yeah, we'll talk later, I've got a lot to do here.
Riku: Ok, see ya, thanks for the information Sora. Eraqus see if you can find the Seekers, they're not too far from Destiny Islands. Ansem I need you to keep your eyes on anything that might be a miss in the Realm of Darkness.
Ansem: You fear they rally there, very well Riku I will keep my eye on that place. If anything should seem out of order I will inform you immediately.
Over the next two months no signs were shown that would give a hint to the Seekers whereabouts. Kairi was just about to give birth to the triplets in Disney Castle where she would be safe from any type of threat.
Kairi: Sora! Where's Sora!
Mickey: He's almost here, Riku's bringing him.
Sora: Kairi!
Kairi: Sora! You almost missed it, Xehanort would have been the least of your problems.
Riku: Kairi, he would never miss something this important.
Lea: Is that so?
Sora: Yeah, why?
Lea: Just messing with you Sora, chill bro.
After the birth Sora and Kairi still hadn't thought of names for their one son and two girls. Lea, making jokes asked for their son to be named Axel or Lea, Kairi started thinking of people from their past, but nothing stuck. Sora thought of names form tv shows, Kairi quickly put an end to that. Riku eventually thought of names of peace Hope for the boy and Faith and Joy for the girls.
Kairi: I think that's perfect.
Sora: What was wrong with Goku?
Lea: Sora you'd better quit while your ahead.
Riku: Yeah Sora, you're not in the dog house yet.
Mickey: Is he close Kairi?
Kairi: Holding on by a thread, Sora.
The whole room had a laugh and enjoyed the days that followed, spending the days with Sora and Kairi and the newest members of the family.
