Roxas raised his hand and whistled for a carriage. A carriage stopped in front of him and Roxas gave the driver the address. "Can you take me here to this address?" The man looked at it and nodded. Roxas jumped and the man whipped his horses to go.
"What am I going to say when I get there?" Roxas pondered. "What's going to happen to Xemnas? Even though he's been cruel, I sure hope he doesn't die." The blond stopped his rambling and listened to the glop, glop of the horse's hooves.
He looked out the window and noticed that it was raining. Great, now I'm going to get wet. The carriage stopped and Roxas looked up at the large mansion he was in front of. The blond jumped out and thanked the driver.
"Thank you…"
"Vincent." The man replied in a deep voice.
"Vincent. Thanks. But can you stay here for a moment? I'll be right back." The man nodded his black locks and pulled his hoddie over his head to keep from getting wet. "Thanks." Roxas ran over to the door and rang the door bell.
He waited for several moments before a short young man answered it. He had silver hair, green eyes and pale skin
"Can I help you?" The guy asked in a monotone voice. Roxas nodded.
"I'm here to see Cloud Strife, sir."
"Do you have an appointment?"
"No I don't, but I need to speak with him. It's very important." Roxas urged on, almost begging. The silver shook his head.
"I'm sorry, but I can't let you in unless you have an appointment." The man said, still using that same voice. Roxas fumed and finally exploded.
"This is a life and death situation here!"
"Is somebody hurt?" The guy asked worriedly, eyes going wide. Roxas nodded again.
"Yes. My step-father is about to die and he needs to speak to Cloud Strife immediately."
"What about?"
"I don't know. It's obviously something very important if my step-father doesn't want to go to the hospital."
The guy nodded. "I'll go get him right away." He opened the door for Roxas and left him at the door, getting his master. Roxas looked around the foyer and was amazed by how huge it was. He was so entranced that he didn't notice that the guy was back with his master.
"This is the boy I was talking about, milord." The guy explained, pointing at the blond. The other guy nodded.
"Thank you Kadaj. But I think I can handle it from here." The man said, shooing the boy away. When Kadaj disappeared around the corner, the man walked over to Roxas and tapped his shoulder. The blond jumped and turned around only to jump back and look wide eyed at the man before him.
It was the man from the locket. Blond spiky hair like his, except spikier, blue eyes like his, and very muscular from what he could tell under all those clothes, unlike Roxas. The man looked at him with a questioning gaze before he spoke,
"My butler told me you needed me for a life and death situation." The man said. Roxas nodded again.
"Are you Cloud Strife?" Roxas asked, holding in a shudder. The man nodded. "I'm Roxas and my step-father needs to speak with you."
"Yes my butler already said that. We must leave quickly." Cloud pulled on his coat and hat and was about to leave before someone called for him.
"And where are going Cloud?"
The blond man turned around and smiled. "I have a situation to handle right now. And I'll be back before dinner. Don't worry, Leon." The man called Leon frowned but nodded none the less. "I'll see you later sweetie."
Leon rolled his eyes and kissed Cloud good-bye. Roxas looked at them wide eyed; now wondering who the woman in the locket really was. He was brought out of his thoughts by a hand on his shoulder. He looked up to see Cloud smiling at him.
"Shall we go?" Cloud grinned.
Roxas nodded and grabbed the man's hand, dragging him back to the carriage. The man on the carriage looked up and got the carriage ready for them. Vincent nodded his head when Roxas told him where to go and whipped his horses.
"So what is your step-father's name?" Cloud asked after a few pregnant moments.
"Xemnas." Roxas answered.
"Xemnas? I swear I heard that name before."
They stopped at the apartments where Roxas lived and got out. "Thanks Vincent." Cloud tipped his hat to the raven. Vincent nodded.
"You're welcome, Cloud."
"Tell Cid I said hi."
"Will do." Vincent whipped his horses, waving his hand over his shoulder. Roxas looked at Cloud in confusion.
"We've been best friends ever since we were children."
"Ohhhh." Roxas nodded and showed Cloud to his apartment door. He opened it and was greeted with gloomy faces. Xaldin was sitting next to Xemnas; Xigbar was leaning against the wall next to them, while Luxord was sitting across from them.
Cloud immediately went to Xemnas' side and looked at him with pity. "I'm here, sir. What is it you want to talk to me about?" The blond sat on the coffee table in front of the man.
"Roxas," Xemnas started off weakly, "did you give him the locket?" Cloud looked back at Roxas in confusion. Roxas shook his head and handed it over to the older blond. Cloud opened the locket and gave a sad smile.
"I'm sorry about your wife." Xemnas said in between breaths. Cloud shook his head and pocketed the locket.
"Don't apologize. It's been about a year since that accident and I've already moved on." Cloud snapped. "Too bad the baby went with her."
"No he didn't." Cloud snapped his head up. "Your baby is fine. When your wife had her baby, so did mine. But Rinoah's baby was dead when it was born, so I switched it with a live one. Which so happens to be yours." Xemnas explained weakly.
"You mean my baby is alive?" Cloud asked hopefully.
"Yes, but I don't know where he is." Cloud frowned at that. "But Roxas knows." He pointed at the younger blond, making Roxas freeze up. "Please… take… good care of… him." With that, Xemnas breathed his last breath and went into a deep sleep that he'll never wake out of.
Xigbar, Luxord, and Xaldin mourned for him and waved the blondes off. Roxas and Cloud nodded and left the building.
"Can you take me to where my baby is?" Cloud asked hopefully, calling for another cab. Roxas nodded and climbed in after Cloud.
"Can you take us to the church right up here?" Roxas asked the cab driver. The driver nodded and whipped his horses to go.
"The church? You mean the Saint Katherine Church?" Cloud asked. Roxas looked at him oddly.
"If that's what it's called."
The carriage stopped and both blondes jumped out. "Will you wait here, sir?" The older blond asked the driver. The driver nodded again. "Show me where he is Roxas." Roxas made a sign for Cloud to follow him.
The older blond followed Roxas to the cellar where he opened a door to the living room. He was immediately bombarded with questions and was hugged by a very worried Axel. Roxas was tipped over and kissed passionately.
"Axel (kiss) there's somebody here (kiss) to see (kiss) Danny (long kiss)." Roxas said in-between kisses. Axel stopped and gazed over to the man in front of the door, who had a smirk on his face. "Cloud, this is my boyfriend Axel. Axel, this is Cloud."
Cloud nodded his head in greeting, a smirk still on his face. Roxas pulled out of Axel's arms and picked up Danny, handing him over to Cloud, who took the baby gently. "Cloud, this is your son, Daniel." Roxas smiled warmly at the older blond, while everybody gasped at him.
Cloud looked over at Roxas and smiled gratefully at him. "Now that you have your son back, you don't need to stick around here anymore." Roxas said sadly. Cloud chuckled and the baby back over to Roxas.
"What are you talking about? I don't know a thing about Daniel and we have room for a couple of more sons… and daughter." Everyone looked at the older male in surprise. "So, would you guys like to come live with me?"
Cloud was tackled to the ground by them and was hugged and kissed. Roxas was still standing with Danny, smiling at the sight before him.
Leon was angry, no, furious with Cloud when the blond brought home all those boys and girl home. But he soon gave in when Cloud explained the situation to him and had promised to make it up to him later that night.
Sora and Riku had gotten their own room, along with Roxas and Axel. Larxene got her own room and Marluxia had to share a room with that Kadaj guy. But he wasn't complaining when they instantly connected to each other. Now they're dating and having sex next door to Roxas and Axel.
A few years later, Axel and Roxas and had gotten married and moved to their own house next door to Cloud and Leon, while Axel and Leon worked together. Riku and Sora had done the same thing, except they are business partners for their own company.
Kadaj and Marluxia had gotten married also, but decided to stay at the Strife mansion as butlers. Larxene moved away from London and married some rich guy named Yazoo. They're doing well and are on their third child.
Cloud and Leon had adopted another baby, a three year old, for Danny to play with, who is now five and is very happy and healthy. The baby had blond hair like Danny's and had brown eyes. They named him Hayner.
When Danny turned 17 and Hayner turned 15, they started to develop feelings for each other. Cloud and Leon were surprised at this but didn't break them apart. If Danny is happy, so were they.
It's seems like there are such things as happy endings.
End. Sorry for it to be so short. I promise to make another story about Cloud and Vincent next time!... I'm going to Anchorage tomorrow, whoa!
