A/N: Alright! So we have finally hit the end of this! Time flies fast, doesn't it? ;)

So, thank you to Fille des Reves, AkuEri, MonMonCandie, Quinhwyvar, prince of flames, Clockwork-Ceni, Starry Requiem, Jcthegirl, Xainagal, the light before the darkness, Kiryn and Whack Zack for reviewing! It really means a lot!

And now, without any further delays, here's the final chapter! :D

X. Succeeding

"Isa! There you are! You're okay!" Lea shouted, shouting the boy's name as he sprinted towards him. His best friend failed to turn around, busy staring at the ruins of Radiant Garden. Smoke rose from the burning buildings, as areas continued to collapse even after the assault. The silence of the World was haunting, Lea's footsteps and shouts the only sound.

Strangely enough, no corpses were abandoned on the ashy ground beneath them.

"Isa?" He asked, concern in his voice as he hesitantly moved towards him. Suddenly, a small group of black shadows rose from the ground, and circled the boy. He glanced at his friend in worry as the creatures twitched.

"Isa? Isa? Help me, please! Isa!" His voice was heavily covered in desperation. The black-covered man snorted.

"Take him. He could be useful," His voice was cold and emotionless. Lea's eyes widened in horror as the creatures began to claw at him.

"Isa please! Please help me! Isa!" He screamed in pain as a bright orb suddenly came from his chest. It twirled in the air, before shadows enveloped it. Then, a creature the exact same as the others that had attacked him appeared. As Lea drifted out of conscious, there was an unusual empty feeling in his chest, where his heart should be.

"So, it seems that we are succeeding... Axel."

A/N: Oh God, my stomach went loopy as I wrote that. And I'm the author of this! D:

I'm sorry about the fact that I broke the limit, but I really couldn't lessen this anymore! :O

Long story short. Lea survived the attack. He was looking for other survivors. Isa had lost his heart, and was ordered to find Lea by Xemnas as his first mission. That's my view on it, anyway.

I can't believe this is over! :( I really want to do another Challenge now... I have a new one called The Hopeless Romantics of Destiny Islands, if any one wishes to see that! Also, there's a poll on my profile about a whole load of story ideas that I have, but I'm not sure about which one to do. If you guys have the time, please do it! It's very important. To me, at least. ;D

Sorry about the Shameless Advertising! Please review! *Hands out Lea and Isa plushies* ^_^
