~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
Thrais couldn't remmebr what happened, all of a sudden a heavy mist, a blurr that obscured everything in her shifted vision, blanketed everything, it swurlled and removed everyone fomr around ...blacknes sover came her.. and then...
A distant voice. Like the chime fo a bell in the wind from miles away...
coming closer.
Closer.
...ais...
Thrais...?
"Athrais...?"
The smell of orcidious, the white flower in the field that grew all over the srhine. But alos in the high field capped mountains that over looked the sea.
She smelt grass... could it be?
Heavy lids lifted open and she stared at the clear night sky over a sea of white petals flowers. The world then righted itself as she sat up.
The breeze blew warm against her back and ruffled her feathers in her relaxed outstretched wings.
It couldn't be....
She slowly rose to her feet, as the sound of the waves crashing upon the shore reached her ears from far below. And then, when she was standing could she see the perfectly white flower capped field give way to a sheer drop into a crystaline blue sea stretched out in the distance. The setting moon that took up almost a quarter of the sky, sinking into the ocean like a giant round mountain of light- THAT proved it once and for all. She was back...
Back home in Sanctum.
"B-but!..H-how could this be?!"
She ran till she almost came to the edge. Her legs kick up the long flowing gown she wore, it floated weightly around her as she stood and looked down at the waves. The lights dancing off the water, casted by the three moons, trinity circles that over looked her homeworld.
But... she'd had never seen them in such a long time. Not since she was very very VERY young.
Everything smelt sweet, and warm, it must be summer.
But- whre was everyone?! Surely it wasn't a dream?!! Where was everyone, Prinz, Maki, Dorinda, Zife, Sycre, Gabriel, Rix, Orphen..everyone, where was everyone?!!
But all her fears and paniced thoughts melted into nothingness as a very special voice reached her ears.
"Athrais?... whats keeping you little one?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thats voice....
Even if it were a million years later after the last time she heard it, thrais would never forget how it sounded. " ..ailou* ? Tell me what's has you so flustered?"
Time seemed to slow to a crawl , a simple thing as simple like turning, seemed to take minutes as the red headed weaver faced another just like her. Shorter hair, same red color, soft lavender eyes, and a face so warm and wise. Her lips were lush and curved into a smile as her child stared right back at her with shock and amazment.. which melted into awe and rapture.
"Ma-...m...mother..?"
"Yes dear?"
"Mother....Mother...MOTHER!!!" she couldn't get to her fast enough. She almost tripped several time as she ran and threw her arsm around her. Crying her name over and over, like it was the most beautiful word in the world.
"Mother!! MOTHER!!"
She wepted and burried her face in the crook of her neck. Even now thrais's mother still smelt the same, a musk of the orcalous flowers, and earthy moss. It was heavenly to her, her mother's smell.
She felt the taller wingweaver place a hand atop her head, and stroke her long, ruby red hair gently.
"...mah..mah... hush now, you're so riled up, thats no way to act on a night like this. You're going to make your mate worried." she chuckled finally able to pull Thrias away long enough to look into her face.
Ceres, captian of the Sanctums restorative troops, 'Right wing's divition' looked down into her childs eyes with such love and pride. "My little ones's all grown up, but you'll still be my little one." she sighed.
Taking her by the hand, Ceres began to lead Thrais away from the cliff and towards the lights beyond the forest edge. " Well, we best be off now, we don't want to keep the priest waiting all night. It wont be long before the climax of the moons is reached, and we want you two joined before then. That's not a sight to miss lightly."
Thrias was still numb to realize how strange it was that her mother hadn't noticed her daughters weeping over thier reunion.
But eventually the words, ' Mate, ' 'Wed' and Priest registered, and the red-head snapped out of it a little.
"Eh..?... w-what did you say?"
"Now Athrais, don't act weird now..," she laughed, pinching her cheek gently, " Prinz has been waiting for you for a while now, you're habits of wandering off will be a problem I swear... he's gonna have his hands full."
"Prinz?!" Thrais's eyes darted around as they cleared the treeline baurder into the courtyard gardens that surounded the southern moon temple. "W-where is he?!" She asked excited, wondering where everyone else was as well.
"The others are they alright?!"
"Of course they are silly, though Maki and Dorinda had trouble figuring out they're part of the ritual, they'll be fine now, and Prinz is in the second chamber waiting you to enter the first. So hurry up!"
And with that Ceres whisked her daughter through the entry way into a candle hall, that was lined with candles that floated in the water streams that lined the sides.
Before she could ask anymore Thrias was ushered away by maidens of the shrine to prepare for the joining cerimony. The ritual that bound two souls together in life and destiny.
~~~~~~
( ailou= affectionate term for a beloved daughter in Wing weaver language)

~~~~~~~~~~
Everything as getting muddled. Clouded, she was begingin to forget what had just happened. Was she dremaing? Was she dreaming and this was the relaity, or is this a dream and she was knocked out or something. It felt too real to be normal for a dream though.
As she stood there in the second chamber, one fo three... the center on that this one was conencted to, would be the actual final cerimony chamber, where eveyrone would be waiting ina circle.
But the two branching off from it, were entere dfomr the touside, by the two mates by opposite ends. So the end result was ot wlak through thier chambers into the center and meet in the middle.
She felt nervous... was this really happening?
Was she actually going through a real binding ritual to become Prinz's Mate...or.. Wife, as humans call it?!
She felt a bubbling excitment swelling gup inside her as she was being carried along in this wonderful dream. She had wanted to be with her mother for a litlt ehiwle longer, but she'd see her again on the inside.
As the chi ing music began, the chamber she was in lit up as the floating candles ignited. They were in the shape of lotus flower and began to rise in the air suspende dby the energy envoked by the ritual begining.
When wingweavers are bound as mates, the shrine acts a junction for all lines of destiny and life to meet at the center where the two partners would be tied together. The presence of the threads being pulled in was what amde the marbal walls suddenly illuminate and go transparent. Now through the stone she could see the moons in the sky above.

Zife and Sophia reached the gates to the Kingdom and entered, The Keywielder could hear music playing all over the Kingdom people where dancing, singing generally having a great time. “Come on.” Sophia said and ran off towards the castle.
Zife shook his head and followed behind her, everything was so cheerful and happy. The two reached the court yard there the Keywielder saw all his friends Thrais, Prinz, Syric, Maki, Dorinda, Tau, Gabrielle, Orphan, Vice, Ryo everyone. "What’s going on?" The blond asked.
"Its a party duh now come on we`ve already started to drink!" Prinz exclaimed holding up a drink.
"Ya Drink!" Orphan said Zife was barley able to make it out, he was laying flat on the ground holding up his drink.
Syric was holding his flask and drinking most likely rum of some kind, the same with Tau. Gabrielle was enjoying a quiet drink having a conversation with Tau.
Vice and Ryo where having a conversation both looked like they where about to fall over.
"Party!" Maki and Dorinda screamed as they put their arms over Prinz and began to sing, rather badly soon enough Prinz joined in along with Thrais. Zife couldn’t help laughing at the site; he walked over and grabbed a drink.
"Drink up Zife!" Prinz slurred grabbing Zife`s drink and sticking it in the blonds mouth making him chug it.
Syric looked over then returned to his drink. "Geez Prinz you think you can control yourself." The tall blond said taking another swig of his flask.
Prinz danced over to Syric, "Don`t be such a sour puss, have some fun Mr Serious!" Prinz sung then pulled the tall mans pants down, revealing his bunny rabbit boxers. I knew you had a fun side.` Prinz laughed.
Sophia came up behind Zife and wrapped her arms around him. "Having fun" She asked him, he closed his eyes and smiled he was about to answer when he heard another voice a louder more anger voice.
"Zife!" The voice shouted Zife opened his eyes and found himself surrounded by Darkness a spotlight beaming down on him.

[Other than a peculiar gender-bending, we're all good.]
Gabriel felt the jolt through the darkness, the tremors of Zife's barrier breaking down as something else began to push through.
Took you long enough, chief. I just hope you can finish what I've started. The darkness is thinning, I can feel it. Just a little push and it'll break...
The light in Gabriel's hand burned like a sun now, but his body couldn't handle the strain any longer. Black flames flickered through cracks in his flesh, clawing at his arm as if to consume the last of his light, but in vain.
I only have to hold on a little longer...as soon as Zife breaks free, he'll free the others, there's no way Asmodeus can stop him now. The moment the walls come down, I'm finished...but, then, I won't matter after that.

“Where the hell am I?” Zife thought turning around scanning the area, but could see nothing. He began to breathe heavily gripping his chest he fell to his knees.
“What are you afraid of?”
“What’s going on?” Zife asked aloud, still breathing heavily sweat beaded down his face. His wings covered his body.
“What are you afraid of?”
The weary Keywielder slowly stood up and responded. “Nothing! I’m afraid of nothing!” he yelled into the darkness
“No You’re afraid of failure aren’t you? You fear that your friends will hate you? You’re afraid of seeing how weak you really are? You are afraid of the darkness.” The voice said.
“No! I’m afraid of nothing!” Zife shouted grabbing his head; he fell to his knees again. Images began to flash all around him, images of Sophia, and all his friends. Each shouting at him.
“Zife you failed us!”
“I hate you!”
“You’re weak!”
“What a pathetic leader!”
“I hate you!”
“I hate you!!”
“Stop!” The blond shouted he held his hands out summoning his Keyblades; he began to swing wildly at the images, hoping to stop the shouting.
“You must conquer these fears and doubts about yourself, Why do you wield the Keyblade?”
“To protect what I care for.” The blond answered, he was out of breath something about this place weakened him.
“You’re oblivious to what you’re actually doing. Wielding that blade is only increasing the chances of their death.”
Zife was shocked at the anger in the voice, five more spotlights appeared around him, and beneath each was a dark figure. And behind them a screen each showing a time when he used darkness within his heart.
“You let the hatred within the blade take control! You even hurt your friends yet you say you wield them to protect.”
Zife fell to his knees his body felt incredible heavy, along with Forbidden. Each dark figure began to walk towards the fallen warrior.
“You see how much darkness still resides in your heart, yet you fear it you keep it bottled up refusing to unleash it, because you are afraid of the consequences. Yet bottling the darkness up is what causes you to use with darkness in such a dangerous way. You’re weak! If you continue to keep the darkness suppressed you will be creating something extremely malevolence. You have to understand that the darkness will never, EVER go away.”
The Keywielder grunted trying to resist the pressure from crushing him.
“You have to control your darkness, you can’t be afraid of it; you must face it head on!”
“SHUT UP! Shut up shut up!” Zife screamed
“You’re not listening; understand anger, hatred and sadness are a different darkness. Darkness doesn’t have to be evil it can be used to protect just as well as the light.”
The blond began to feel the pressure disappear, his body returned to normal. He stood up and looked at the five figures in front of him. Each figure merged with Zife’s body.
“Now go break free from this spell and show your true potential show that you’re not afraid.”
Zife stood tall and looked deep into the darkness, “I’m not afraid of the Darkness, you hear me Asmodeus I’m not afraid, of you, your band of Endless or your Darkness!” The Darkness around the blond began to break and splinter.

"Finally!" Gabriel's broken voice rang out clearly this time, not merely his thoughts, seeping through the cracks in the barrier surrounding the Chasers' leader. "Zife, I don't have long left, so listen. No one fights alone out there! You'll understand what I mean when you free the others. Sorry I won't be there for the big finale, but my number was up before we ever landed. It's your show now, chief, you and the others will have to finish this." The light of Gabriel's shattered heart began to force its way through the darkness, thin and pale and tired but by no account weak, surrounding Zife like a second skin. "This is the last thing I can do for anyone, Zife. It's not much, but it's all I ever had. Please....tell Isabel...that I'm sorry." For one last moment, the sun in Gabriel's ghostly hand went supernova, and Zife could see in that moment a pillar of smoke and ashes where the beleaguered pilot had stood. All that remained aside from that desperate light was a hollow, burned-out shell, like a druidic wicker man offered to the flames. Then even that disappeared, ashes blown past Zife on a spectral wind as the source of the light, the last jagged shard of Gabriel's broken heart, fell into his leader's hand. The blast began to fade, but still the light clung about Zife's body, a glistening aura that would not be extinguished, owing to no name and no face, only to the hope shared between the Chasers as friends and comrades in arms.
A single whisper fell into each Chaser's ear, sleepy and resigned but, in its quiet way, content, and then Gabriel St. Germaine was no more.
"Goodbye."

((I must say Zife, I'm greatly offended. There's a party with beer and no RAMEN?! How could you?! crying ))
Maki paused in her weak steps as she carefully was moving forward, trying to feel her way through the darkness. The whisper of the tired pilot reached her ears. She eyes looked up wide at a small glimmer to her left. "Gabriel?" She clenched the necklace at her chest, in hopes that the goodbye wasn't real and prayed as she resumed groping her way through the pitch black.

((lol. Then Prinz is destroyed. xD ))
Syric hadn't moved. He couldn't.
All he could do, all he wanted to do, was kneel there by the bed and watch Elle sleep peacefully. He smiled. An actual, genuine, gentle smile.
Syric didn't think it would happen.
"Goodbye.." Came a vaguely familiar voice.
Syric glanced around. Who was that? Elle didn't stir from her slight slumber.
Everything outside of their bedroom had flown from the large man's mind. The Islands, the Chasers, the Order. He couldn't recall any of it.
Then, with that whisper, it came back to him slightly.
What? Why would I want to go back there..Elle is alive!
Syric gladly shoved those thoughts away, and went back to smiling down at his beloved.
He wanted to cling to this dream, never to wake.

((sorry for my inactivity, things have been hectic around my house for the past few weeks...........time to get back to the event))
as vice stood fighting heartless, the whisper reached his ear and he stopped, the grim scene fading back to the flower field "Gabriel........it can't be......." he said, a tear rolling down his cheek as his sad frown turned into a face of anger as he swung wildly about the darkness that surrounded him "Asmodeus! you will not get away with this, fool!" he yells, as the flowers quickly wilt and three dark figures appear in spotlights in front of vice "how dare you dark servants approach me"
"we have been here all along, Vice. Your anger just drew us out of hiding" says the middle figure, reaching out his right hand
"if you have come to turn me into a heartless, you shall find that it is most difficult"
"we are only here to unleash the darkness stored in your heart, the darkness that every living thing has inside their heart" said the other two, holding out their right hands
"I am a warrior of the light, trained to fight the very beings that originally devastated my homeworld of Radient Garden, and you are trying to unleash my darkness?"
"you choose to throw away the greatest power in the universe?" says the middle dark figure, raising both his hands
"no, I choose to destroy that power, and prevent anyone without a pure heart from entering Kingdom Hearts!" he yells, dashing towards them and slicing them all down in a single swing "Darkness has no power over me" he says, dropping both his blades and looking into the sky, staring up at a large blue heart floating amidst the darkness "if only I could enter Kingdom Hearts one time before it is defiled by those Order fools" he says, reaching both his arms up towards the shining beacon in the sky "that would be enough for me to die in peace"

((Haha sorry Maki I'm deeply ashamed of myself XP they next party I'll make sure theres ramen))
As the darkness around Zife began to break apart he could hear Gabriel’s voice and watched as light penetrated the darkness behind him. The blond turned around and spotted the pilot, holding a bright light between his ghostly fingers. It took a minute for Zife to realize what Gabriel was doing and after listening to him he understood. “Gabriel no, don’t go not yet!” But deep down he knew his words would not convince the pilot there was no swaying Gabriel’s heart.
The light surrounded Zife and he felt Gabriel’s spirit and soul, he looked on as the light in Gabriel’s hand started to brighten and give off more energy. “Gab no!” Zife shouted as he tried to reach his friend and comrade, but no matter how fast he ran he couldn’t get close and finally the light exploded.
The blond clenched his fist trying to hold back his tears as Gabriel’s body turned to dust in front of him and as the ashes blew past him. “Dammit!” Zife screamed as he fell to his knees and started punching the dark ground he kneeled upon. He stopped and slowly stood up he felt something warm he looked up and saw a light he raised his hand and caught it the last shard of Gabriel’s heart. “I will tell her, and I won’t let your death be in vein my friend.”
The Blond Keywielder raised his hand and summoned Freedom the blade gained power from the shard of Gabriel’s heart. “Your almost there Freedom soon.” The shard was absorbed into the Keyblade and started to give off a bright light.
“Thank you Gabriel Germaine.” The blond raised the blade above his head and made a mighty swing creating a wave of light energy that collided with the darkness shattering it. “Asmodeus you will pay.” Zife whispered then jumped spreading his wings he flew through the opening.
On the outside all the order members had returned to the enormous ship, there were several floating black orbs each held a Chaser inside. In a bright flash one exploded and out came Zife.
