A small, quaint, town with clothing stores, restaurants, a library, a grocery store and an arcade. Resides in between the dorms and the Academy. When let out for lunch, this is where students go. There is no lunch room.

To begin this epic tale, we start in Keyblade Corner. Classes have been in session for only a week now, and new friendships and alliances are still blooming or have yet to be forged. It is currently a beautiful sunny day. Several large planets are visible in she sky as the great Antedon passes by. The town is busy with students, as class has just let out and the weekend is closing in.

Rushden enjoyed school, but he was glad today was done and over with. The lectures were boring and training was lacking in heart today. So while he waited for Kai to get out of his own class, he sat at his favorite cafe and drank a strawberry lemonade. He bit into a cupcake and softly purred. If only he could get them these good at home where his family lived.
Rush wasn't a first year. He had been training here for a year and a half. In between classes he was off saving worlds. After a boring day like today, he was hoping to get another mission soon.

Ronan sighed, exiting his sparring class at the end of the school day. He has been here only a week, and he already felt like he was failing. Well, he can't help it. He was relatively new to this Keyblade thing.
The Kelpie hybrid yawned, stretching his arms behind his head. He walked down the street, his eyes studying every corner. He's been doing that since his first day here. Even though he technically had family here - and his dad visited here often - he felt that it was in his best interest to know where everything is and how far it was from where he was staying for the past week. He passed by a cafe, glancing up to see a person...Paladin, right? Maybe? He stopped in interest. He looked like he was in one of his classes. Should he introduce himself? Or would that be rude now? He looked like he was waiting for someone, after all...

Rush pulled out his phone and checked the time. Where are you Kai?, he thought and sighed. He was getting bored. He took another bite of his cupcake and glanced up, just in time to see another kid watching him. His head raised up a little in interest and he smiled. He remembered seeing him in one of his lecture classes. He was new.
"Hey there! Class end for you too?" he said with a smirk. He waved him over so he didn't have to shout. "Name's Rushden. What's yours? I think I remember you from our Magic Safety class?"

Ronan jumped, blushing faintly as he was recognized by the Paladin. Okay, so he did know him. That was embarrassing, he should have answered first-
Ronan mentally shook himself. Stop that! You know that that's not an issue! Ronan waved back. "Hi. Um, yes, I think I am in that class with you. I'm Ronan. Nice to meet you." The Kelpie mix walked over to the boy. "Are you waiting for someone?" he asked curiously. He blushed again. "A-and sorry if I'm weird, but it's my first time meeting a Paladin who isn't one of my 'honorary' aunts, so I'm actually very excited to meet and talk to you!" he blabbed out. He blushed redder in realization of what he said. "I'm sorry, that was so rude of me!!" Yeah. He wasn't quite exactly his father's son.

Rush smiled but his head tilted in confusion. "Paladin?" He thought about what he was getting at and nodded, finally understanding.
"Oh! You mean Pallion! Yeah, I'm sort of a mixing pot of stuff. Heartless, Human, Nobody, Pallion....I"m sorry I'm getting off topic." Rush looked at his phone again and rolled his eyes.
"Yeah, but I think he's running a little late. You can sit with me. If you're not busy. Be nice to get to know someone new." He motioned to a chair. He listened to Ronan with interest and again, became curious. Honorary aunts who were pallions?
"Wait, hold on. Who's your aunt?"

Ronan blushed more. "I-I'm sorry! I didn't mean to confuse the two! I should have remembered, knowing those two, but I haven't seen them in a long time." He sat down with Rushden, staring down at the table in embarrassment. He perked up when he heard Rush's blood. "Really? Wow. I'm a quarter human and three-quarters river Kelpie." he said, puffing out his chest a little with pride.
He looked up at a waiter and ordered a raspberry lemonade. He looked over at Rush in surprise. "Oh? My aunts? Their names are Thorn Penndragon and Claire Kojiro... At least, I think that was their last names, last I heard of them..." he mumbled, taking a sip out of his lemonade when it showed up.

Rush smiled widely and he jumped up a little in a quick motion. "No way! Really!? Claire and Thorn are your aunts too?! Mari is my mom! How are you related? I've never met you before." he said with excitement. What were the odds of seeing another relative? They did have a very large family. He would only suppose there would be people he had never met before.
"I'd never heard of a Kelpie before. I think Aunt Claire mentioned it once or twice in passing. I can't believe you're family with my aunts! That makes us cousins!"

Ronan gasped in surprise. "No way!! You're Mari's?! I never got to meet her! Oh, you're so lucky! Then again, my dad and my aunt - his twin - were closer to Aunt Thorn and Aunt Claire. Wow!" He took another sip of his lemonade. "Well, from what I understand, Aunt Thorn and Claire just...took my dad and Aunt Anaryn under their wings... Uh, figuratively speaking. My dad and aunt were orphans, so they just kind of...blended in with Claire and to a degree Thorn."
He chuckled. "Well, Kelpies are usually found in one place, unless we hope from world to world." he joked. "Well, you've got a three-quarter one here! Not all of them have...well, violet hair. Only, like, three of us do. And those other two are my sisters."

"This is so cool! I've heard of Arlen and Anaryn. I've never met them myself but I heard good things.You should bring your family to our family reunions! We have one every year. I'm sure Aunt Thorn would have sent an invite out to you guys. She invites all of the family...and I mean all." Rush paused and pondered. "But then again, Aunt Thorn is...well...evil is a strong word. But she is on the others side...you don't things have gotten tense between them? I know she likes to conquer other worlds..." Rush said in a hushed tone, a little concerned. He never spoke much about his aunt Thorn. He didn't want the other kids to think he was siding with the enemy. But then again, he had Cole as a cousin. He sipped more of his lemonade and sent a quick text to Kai where he was and that he met a new cousin.

Ronan looked down sadly. "Well, she hasn't really been to see us in years. I think she and Dad may have gotten into an argument about our world, or maybe she just forgot about us... I haven't seen her since I was little. I don't think she even knows about my baby sister..." He sighed. "I don't know. I mean, I know from Dad that she was technically on the...wrong side of morality... But that doesn't mean she stops being family, you know?"

Rush nodded.
"I agree. It's not like Thorn to forget anyone. Probably a spat. But you're right. Family is family. You should meet more of your family. There's a few here. There's my sister Daimond, Kai, Kyou, Cole."
"Cole? What'd he do now?" he heard a voice say. Claire was walking by the cafe. She was looking for her sons, needing to make sure her eldest was keeping out of trouble. "Seriously have you seen them? Mainly Cole. He's not answering my texts." she said. Claire, after having children, dressed more modestly now. She wore a form fitting shirt and some curve-hugging capris. He hair was tied back into a ponytail, leaving only a fluff of hair hanging in the front. She needed to be decent in front of this many children. She looked to Ronan and raised a brow.
"You look familiar. You're not in my class I'm sure. Either that or you just blend in with the other kids. The only one I can't get out of my head is that space obsessed kid....augh. I need an aspirin after him."

Ronan chuckled nervously. "Yeah. I do hope that they get to agreeing with each other soon... Dad misses her." he said sincerely. "And I'd love to meet everyone else!" The young Kelpie looked up in surprise when an older Pallion popped by, overhearing their conversation. His eyes widened in surprise. "Aunt Claire?! Is that you?!" he exclaimed, becoming excited. He hadn't seen her in years, either! "It's me, Ronan! Your nephew!"

Claire smiled in disbelief. "You can't be! You were so little last I saw you! Oh my goodness. You've gotten so big! And so handsome! You have your father's looks for sure." she chuckled. "Family all around today. I see you've met Rush. He's a sweet kid. Stick with him, he'll keep you out of trouble."
Rushden blushed. "Cmon Aunt...don't embarrass me.." Rush muttered.
"I mean it, you and Kai are a great influence. Keep Ronan out of trouble. The last thing I need to hear is Arlen getting called to the principle's office along with my son..." Claire looked off down the road and sighed.
"Speaking of which I should keep going, keep Cole out of trouble. I'll see you two later."
She leaned over and kissed them on the head.
"I'll catch you two later. We'll catch up later Ronan. If you see Cole, tell him to call me" Claire walked off, looking annoyed.
(I'm heading to bed. I missed this so much. Destrukk will be on tomorrow smile Night!)
