Author's Note: Sorry about the extremely late update. I had this chapter ready to go last weekend, but due to sickness, I couldn't bring myself to post it. I have been stressing a lot about how to begin Twilight Exodus. I think I've finally got it. Expect to see it soon. I'd love to express my thanks to everyone who has reviewed and read this story. It has been maybe a little over a month since I've started this. If you'd like to stay with me for one more installment, I wouldn't fail to disappoint you.

Oh wait. I forgot the disclaimer for this chapter. I don't own Passion by Utada Hikaru and don't sue me for making a character that resembled her. I didn't post the translation, because it's so easy to just go and look it up.

Enjoy the last chapter/Epilogue.


Epilogue

Kairi:

All of us returned to Destiny Islands with the exception of Daisy. Daisy returned back to the castle. She wasn't alone, however. With the death of Mickey, everyone returned from the dead, except for certain Organization members. They came back with no memory of dying. This made it easy to soothe Sora's conscience. Demyx and Roxas moved in with us, which made life a lot more interesting.

Axel became a lot livelier than before. He and Roxas eventually became lovers. It was actually quite sweet. Axel still owed Roxas ten-thousand munny. Demyx became a famous pop/rock star and was now living the life that most rock-stars lived, with the exception of use of drugs. He made a wonderfully good living. So much so that we were able to move into a lavish house on the main island.

We rarely saw him during the day at all. Axel used to call him a vampire.

Sora seemed to change after we got back home. He became distant and melancholy. For a moment, I thought I had lost him. Eventually I become pregnant with our first child. Sora seemed to cheer up then. In fact, he became over-protective in a good way.

We lost the child one month into pregnancy.

I was devastated.

Riku became a closer friend—a shoulder to cry on. Did I mention that he and I got over our issues? Well, we did. I still think that he was accepting the fact that Sora and I were still together. He also still owed Roxas fifteen-thousand munny.

I managed to recover and now I was expecting again.

"Hey, Kairi, we're going to be late!"

I frowned as I smoothed over my outfit. Sora was so impatient. Besides, I had to make sure that I looked okay. Today was one of Demyx's biggest concerts and he had given us front row seats. I didn't blame Sora for being so excited. After all, it was rare when he did get to go out in public. He was still attempting to control his Heartless powers.

"Kairi?"

I turned towards the door as Sora poked his head in the doorway. He had trimmed his hair to his shoulders after Roxas made a game out of pulling it. His eyes never did return to being blue, but that was okay.

"All right, I'm ready. Where's Axel and Roxas?"

"On the porch."


Ten Minutes Later:

The stadium was a sight to behold by itself. Demyx really was treating us like royally by putting us up front like this.

"I wonder what Demyx is up this time?" Sora asked softly.

Axel rolled his eyes.

"He did say there was a special performance this time," Roxas commented.

It wasn't long before the 'Melodious Nocturne' walked onto stage.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to our special concert. Introducing Kailani!"

Demyx stepped back as his sitar appeared in his hands. In the background, a person appeared with a set of drums. A woman dressed in a long, flowing blue dress walked onto the stage. Next to Demyx appeared a man with a keyboard. Seconds later, the music began.

"Wonk uoy naht niotceffa erom deen I…"

What was peaceful silence exploded into a driving passionate beat.

"Omoidaseba…haruka haruka

Mirai wa…doko made mo kagayaiteta

Kirei na…aozora no shita de

Bokura wa…sukoshi dake obiete ita.."

The woman, Kailani, began walking around the stage slowly yet elegantly as she sang.

"Natsukashii iro ni mado go somaru…

Mae wo muitereba

Mata aemasu ka…

Mirai wa…doko e demo tsudzuiteru 'n da

Ooki na kanban no shite de

Jidai no…utsuroi uo mite itai na…"

Her voice was pure…almost as melodious as Demyx was when he was singing seriously. With a small poof, a small group of dancers appeared on the stage. They began to dance in a loose circle around Kailani just as she began to sing again.

"Nido to aenu..

Hito ni basho ni

Mado wo akeru…"

Her voice grew in intensity and passion.

"Omoidaseba…haruka haruka

Mirai wa…doko made mo kagayaiteta

Kirei na…aozora no shita de…

Bokura wa…itsumademo nemutte ita…"

The dancers twirled and flipped around, captive to the beat of the music.

"Zutto mae ni suki datta hito," Kailani sang.

Much to my surprise, Demyx responsed.

"Fuyu ni kodomo ga umareru sau da…"

"Muskashi kara no kimari goto wo.." Kailani.

"Tama ni utagaitaku nara yo…" Demyx.

"Zutto wasurerarenakatta no…" Kailani.

"Nengajou wa shashin tsuku kana…" Demyx.

"Watashitachi ni dekinatta koto wo…"

"Totemo natsukashiku omou yo…"

"My fears, my lies…"

The music went silent. The dancers vanished.

"Aozora no shita de," Kailani sang softly.
