Due the current troubles with Proofreaders, this chapter is not corrected. I am sorry for the inconvinience.


Kuran have just arrived Olympic Coliseum. upon a massage from Will. It has been quite some time since his departure and the keybearer wondered why his friend asked him to come here.

After entering the main entrance he saw Phil and walks towards him

"Ah! Kuran! Good that you are finally here! Everybody is already waiting for ya!" told Phil and heads for the door to the main arena.

Waiting? Who is waiting? Will for sure… but who are the others?

"What are you waiting for?" asks Phil

"Coming" told Kuran and moves to the arena and stares. The seats of the arena were full. Full of people.

He even saw a few he recognized while moving to the middle of the arena while Phil stands on a high platform and called towards the crowd "Ladies and Gentleman! Welcome to special battle today! And here we have one of our today's Fighters! Kuran Yuma!"

The crowd cheered more and Kuran asks "What the hell?"

"The today's fight is unpreceded to the history of our world AND the keyblade bearers! And now I give words to the one who organized this match!"

And then he hops of and Will steps on the platform.

"Man, I was NOT expecting a full house." Spoke Will's voice as Kuran saw him appear via Dark corridor.

"How's it going?" He smiled.

"Is this your idea?" asks Kuran "What are you pulling here? And what is special about whatever you planned?"

"I only wanted to see just how strong you are. This must have been Sora and the others when they heard about the idea of us doing this." He said

"I talk about this to them later" he growled "Because I am not really happy about this!"

"So anyway, how have you been?"

"Doing well… catching up with my father. After punching him for the deal with Maleficent and Faith and I were currently looking for a nice house in Radiant Garden"

"Nice I've been a bit busy myself just recently reforged my Silver Fang." He smiled as he showed of the katana, It seemed to appear a bit longer that what he remember but only a few inches.

"But that's not the only thing I got." Will smiled before reaching behind his back drawing another sword, it appeared to be a type of broadsword with the hilt in the shape of a dragon's head with its horns pointing upwards the blade having the same silver sheen as his Katana.

"I decided to take thing a bit further and make a new sword all together."

"Did you mix in something else aside from your soul and the usual blade ingredients?" asks Kuran as he examines the blade.

"Well the thing is when I was reforging my blade I had to melt it back down first, all I really did was pour half of it into a new mold. And thus my new blade: Silver Edge." He explained, holding up the new sword.

"Neat" he told "I have nothing much to tell regarding my equipment… didn't do much since the battle"

"Oh but this thing isn't the only new toy I have." Will grinned.

"What is your other toy?"

He simply grinned before holding out his hand and summoned what looked like a keyblade, the blade was bright orange with a few flame like streaks acting as the teeth the handle was deep red and appeared like a type of dragon that spewed out fire that made the blade and the keychain was that of a small platinum pearl that had a emerald slit in it appearing like some kind of reptilian like eye.

Kuran looked at the blade and noticed that it looked like the Dragon Buster Sword.

"Not bad huh?" Will mused.

"You turned the Dragon Buster INTO a keyblade?" asks Kuran "Now I feel at a troublesome spot since losing the Dragoon form"

"Not me personally but I know some Moogles who can." He said.

Kuran looked at Will for a while before asking in disbelief "Moogles?"

"I don't know about your universe, but in mine, in ancient time the Moogles actually help make the Keyblades for the ancient masters." Will explained.

"That info is not available for me" admits Kuran "But I know somebody I will ask when I have some time…. so. Why are you wanting a fight with me? Just curious"

"One reason is that I want to break these bad boys in, I'd go fight a horde of Heartless, but let's be honest they don't last that long. I'd also want to see how I'd fare against a warrior capable of TRULY wilding the X-blade. there's another reason...But that's more of a personal thing."

"You know I cannot summon it anymore?" asks Kuran "The Blade is put apart, the princess have their share back while any other of the dark pieces were carefully hidden, except for the one that is bond to my heart. I don't have anymore the ability to summon two keyblades, like I had as I faced Maluz. Still wonder how I got this temporary thing"

"So that ability to wield two keyblades came from that fragment?"

"No clue" told Kuran "The only difference to other times is that I had the 13 dark fragments"

"But I can tell you heart as grown a lot even if it is different from the lack of the fragment, I can feel it you're still just as strong as ever."

"Don't forget I was a heartless hunting predator heartless in the time between losing the fragment and getting my body back" laughs Kuran "Another mystery: How the heck did I become this?"

"I'm sure you'll get the answer you're looking for. Anyway I think we kept this crowd waiting long enough, You ready?"

"Get your but wiped on the floor" challenged Kuran, calling his Keyblade and a dark blade.

Will smirked as he got his new blades ready, his Armour covering his body.

"Ok...Let's dance!"

And with that Kuran began to rush forward Will, throwing his dark blade at him, which split into several small dark daggers while they flew at Will.

Will spun his blades deflecting the knives before kicking Kuran hard in the stomach. who flew back but fall into a dark corridor with no exit in direct sight making the crow looking around in wonder where he is.

Will braced himself for whatever the dark wilder might be planning as he carefully looked around himself.

Then he heard a faint sound, turning to the direction and saw nothing. Another came and again nothing. Then in the corner of his eyes he saw something moving down. Looking at his feet he saw three arrows stuck in the ground and as he turned he saw Kuran falling down with the bow and shot a fourth arrow that impacted the ground at Wills feet.

And before Will could progress what Kuran might plan, the arrows explode, catching him in four pressure waves of pure darkness.

Knowing Will wouldn't be down by just this little trick, he got another arrow ready, aiming down and waits for an action of his opponent.

Amidst the dust of the Explosion, Kuran soon saw a series of Mega Flares flying at him.

And as reaction Kuran shoot his arrow at the closest one while opening a dark corridor to fall in head first. The arrow impacted with the Mega Flare and caused an explosion, starting a chain reaction until all of these flaming balls were exploding, causing the entire crowd to duck under.

At a side of the field the exit of Kurans escape plan opens and he flew out, flying towards where Will should be and had his Keyblade at two hands, planning to do an overhead strike with the speed he had gained by falling down.

However he soon noticed he wasn't there and saw the crowd looking upward, upon looking himself he found Will Flying down at him, slamming his blades into the ground creating a large shockwave

"Crap!" shouts Kuran and holds his free hand out and a large wall of darkness formed to block the attack while buying him a few seconds to think for the next move.

Will quickly vanished and appeared behind him before blasting him with a Thundaga. Grunting Kuran took the opportunity and threw his keyblade, hitting Will on the head before getting into distance while throwing a few more daggers and pulled a spear out.

Will rushed at him clashing with his blades. The clashing keeps on for a while, striking more and locked with him. Then Will noticed: Kuran had using two spears of darkness to lock with him. And he remembered an important aspect of Kurans darkness use.

His eyes widened before Will warped away. Just in this moment the darkness spears explode, covering the field again and the crowd gasped as they through that Kuran used a move that might hurt him.

Will reappeared atop one of the pillars, scanning the ring for where Kuran might be.

'This is what I get for fighting someone who can actually hide in his own aura.' He cursed to himself.

And spears flew at him from six different positions, all aimed at Will, but only one had a Keyblade strapped on it.

Dodging the spears, he blasted a Mega Flare in the general direction the one with the Keyblade was thrown, hitting Kuran, though more from the explosion of the spell rather than the hit.

He quickly flew at him and sent Kuran crashing into one of the pillars. Kuran groans and made a few hand waves and more spears appeared in thin air and flew at Will. After deflecting the spears, Will suddenly fell down, through a portal created by Kuran

Will made his own Dark Corridor and flew out, before Clashing With him again, during the midst Kuran managed to knock the blades out of Will's hands and the crowd thought it was going to be over, until Will quickly grabbed him and threw him to the other side of the ring.

But a few daggers it Will as Kuran flew and his Keyblade also hits the body.

Grunting, Will punched Kuran hard enough to send him flying upward before wrapping up to him and kicked him back down to the ground.

Then Kuran punches his arm forward and while not hitting Will, a dark pillar emerges and hits the target into the stomach, sending flying

Will managed to land on his feet when he hit the ground, landing next to his blades.

"Not bad." He smirked.

"Thanks" told Kuran

"Well I don't know about you-" Will pulled his blade out, withdrawing Dragon Buster and pulled out his Katana. "-but I think that's enough of a warm up, ready to get the REAL fight started?"

"I haven't shown you the best yet" told Kuran "Because here is something I forgot to tell you that I discovered…"

"Oh?" He mused.

And Will got pounded down from behind as something appeared behind him. It stepped once on his head before rushing forward to get besides Kurans side.

Will quickly recovered from the strike.

"What the hell?

"Did we ever told you how my Heartless form looked like?" asks Kuran with a chuckle.

"Wait. What?"

And a growl were heard and he saw a bipedal black dragon with green slit eyes stood next to Kuran.

"THAT'S what you look like as a Heartless!?"

"Yes"

"Oh this fight is definitely going to be fun. Let's see how you and your pet does against THIS!"

Will held up both his blades and they both suddenly turned into his Keyblades, his normal keyblade was its usual silver but his new Dragon Buster was more golden as the aura that covered will appear more multi colored. Will gave a roar as his aura blasted a powerful burst of wind that shook the whole ring.

Kuran and his heartless were bracing themselves to not fly away from the wind.

The wind stopped before Will kicked it up a notch by transforming into his Dragon form.

"Here we go."

"As expected" smirks Kuran and climbs on his heartless.

"Hers a new trick I picked up." Will smirked before vanishing again, however his voice seemed to still eco "LETHAL FLAME!"

Soon both him and his heartless were surrounded by weird bubbles grew around them before popping to a series of slashes that covered most of the ring.

Kuran and his Heartless were moving up to avoid the hits and Kuran jumped off his heartless to land on Wills back through a dark corridor and slashes at one of the wings with his axe.

Will vanished behind him grabbed Kuran, and crashed him into the ground, before warping up to the heartless and blasted it with a few mega flares.

At the first sight it looked like he finished it off but it raised up again from Kurans shadow while Kuran threw something into a dark corridor and Wills head got smashed by an iron ball.

After getting up from the hit, he snared Kuran with his Bind and threw him into his Heartless before blasting them both with a powerful Thundaga.

Kuran groans loudly and began to run towards him while his heartless got up and tried to attack Will as well from the side.

Will was quick to block the attacks with his Keyblades before blasting them both back with a burst from his aura.

They flew back and Will felt something jumping on his head again

"Now what!?"

And a second heartless was standing on him and Kuran punches Will once, covering his eyes with darkness before the three began to attack to hit the wings.

Kuran suddenly felt a surge of power flowing from Will that reminded him of an incident from their travel and remembered what that means.

"Damm!" shouts Kuran and rushes off with his two heartless to avoid what happens next and hide behind a dark corridor.

Ultima soon enveloped Will and even the whole ring as everyone in the coliseum felt the force behind the explosion that destroyed the ring. Luckily Kuran was smart enough to get out of the reach of this attack and looks down at Will, Keyblade ready to strike in case he has to.

Will quickly warped away, before Kuran could process this one of his Heartless was sent flying through the wall on the other side of the destroyed ring as the other crashed onto the ground to the point where it's head was stuck..

"Dammit!" told Kuran and quickly looked around to spot Will, even checking the sky

Soon he noticed more of those "Blade Bubbles" from his earlier attack beginning to surround him.

And he went into a dark corridor to escape it.

The attack eventually died down however Will still seemed gone. And Kuran punches the ground as reply and dozens of dark daggers rain down, covering the entire ground in hope of hitting him.

He noticed that some of them looked like they were knocked in a trail formation, it soon hit him that Will wasn't simply teleporting, he is travelling at an insane speed.

Closing his eyes he concentrates on the darkness that surrounds everybody even in the realm of light… trying to track Will with his fingers ready to snap.

It took a bit of concentration, but he did managed to feel a source of darkness darting around, it was about to close in on him again reading to attack.

And he ties and once Will got closer he snapped the fingers, a big ball of darkness emerges and explode at the moment where Will was above it

He quickly jumped over Kuran to avoid the blast and landed behind him.

"THAT was close." He smirked.

"And jumped into the trap" told Kuran and a box of darkness traps Will, got pierced by several dark spears and then explode hard.

Kuran walked away to get away from Will in case this wasn't too much… this move cost a lot of energy and his darkness reserves are low.

Will managed to get up from the assault and noticed the crowds horrified look and then noticed one of the spears still in his stomach

"Dude what the hell!?" Will scolded.

Kuran stared at him "I was pretty sure I didn't hit your body… just immobilize you… AND GET THE SPEAR OUT!"

"You make it sound like you haven't seen me get stabbed before." Will said before pulling it out.

"Never since you lost your immortality" countered Kuran "I don't want to be responsible for your death!"

"Relax I was only joking, is hard to restrain yourself in the heat of the moment after all. come on let's keep going." Will smiled.

"Still… your wound?" asks Kuran, pointing to the stomach.

"You forgot I can do this." Will said before casting curaga, healing the wound.

"You really need your pain tolerance lowered" told Kuran with his head shaking while his two heartless returned after finally recovered from Wills onslaught.

"Sorry, can't afford to feel pain most of the time." He countered before casting Curaga on Kuran, much to his confusion.

"When I healed from the stab I also healed all the damage from this fight..Let's make this fair."

The two heartless looked at their master for instructions.

Kuran told them to be careful while watching Will.

"Round 2!" Will sent Kuran flying before wrapping up to him and threw him back down hard.

And the two heartless tackled Will down before rushes to the sides and all the dark daggers lying around on the field began to explode, covering the field in darkness.

Will managed to escape and fly high up, scanning the ground for Kuran. But due the thick darkness Will couldn't see Kuran… and seeing that no attacking was coming, means that the darkness user was charging up something.

"Ugh damn it!" Will mumbled before blasting a series of Mega Flares all over the ring in hopes of hitting him.

Only for him to see that several dark corridors opens to send the mega flares back at the sender… namely Will. Which shocked him as the amount of dark corridors exceeds what Kuran usually can pull off.

Dodging the counter Will flew high to try and avoid whatever Kuran is planning. It took a while before Will saw what is coming… nothing. The darkness dispersed and Kuran wasn't on the ground. So the only natural thing was to look above and Kuran was there. And it seems that he had taken a page from Laharl.

"Time stop!" Will soon find the attack frozen inches from his face but took the opportunity to get out of the way. And that Kuran had surrounded himself with dozens of daggers pointing outwards, expecting the time stop. Still… where the heck managed Kuran to get a meteor made of darkness to ride on top of it?

Will resumed time as the dark meteor crashed into the ground. And then he felt a second one impacting with his back, crashing into the first one and both explode, nearly destroying the entire arena if it weren't for quick shields casts by many magic users.

Standing on the field Kuran watches to see how this affected Will, panting as this was a very costing move… he had to use darkness to substitute his lack of magic abilities. Speak he really hurled down two giant chunks of darkness. Not to mention the redirecting the Mega Flares earlier… if Will isn't down now, then the match was over anyway.

Will soon pushed off rubble that landed on him as he got up, he may not appear hurt, but it was appeared that fatigue of the fight is starting to get to him as seen by how hard he was panting.

"Not going to lie….I actually felt that." He smiled.

"Thanks… put a lot into that" told Kuran with a grin "But had to counter your Time Stop somehow when I use this as trump card"

"I always figured you would make me feel pain again, Considering how hard I've seen you hit."

"Admit it: Smart move with the second rock" laughs Kuran "I mean come on. You didn't expect it or I would have missed you"

Will laughed a bit." Yeah no kidding. I can genuinely say I don't think I have much left in me so let's try and end this quick."

Then Kuran pulled his Light Within Darkness out and smirks "Sword clash?"

Will held his keyblades at his side.

"Sounds good…" he said as the coliseum fell quite in anticipation.

And Kuran rushes forward

Will did the same as a loud clang echoed with the two appearing on the other side of one another they both stood there for a minute before will dropped both his Keyblades as the turned back into his sword, and collapsing indicate the end of the fight.

"AND WE HAVE A WINNER!" shouts Phil while Kuran just laughed and falls on his back, tired form the match, his heartless leaving, returning from wherever they came from

Sometime later the two found themselves in a recovery room as Will came to it didn't take long for him to process what happen.

"Guess that's it, huh?"

"Yeah!" told Kuran "And you know what? Faith just told me we got rich. 5 of seven people bet against me."

Will only laughed. "Not bad..Good fight there."

"thanks" laughs Kuran

A realization suddenly occurred. "We destroyed the whole ring."

"You didn't notice it earlier?"

"Were probably going to have to pay for it…"

"Or at least helping rebuilding it" told Kuran "But damm! What do you think would happen if you use Ultima or me remaking Meteor with my darkness?"

"Oh good you're both doing alright." They looked over to see Aqua and the others come in.

"Hey guys." Will smiled.

"Hello" told Kuran

"How you guys feeling?" Lea asked.

"As far as getting smashed by a meteor goes, not bad actually." Will answered.

"Regarding that" told Sora "SINCE WHEN ARE YOU ABLE TO PULL SUCH A POWERFUL SPELL? THAT WAS TOTALLY COOL!"

"Only when I use blade fusion." Will smiled.

"Yeah but don't you think you might be pushing it some time. I mean if you get to reckless you could really get yourself killed." Terra added.

"Still alive aren't I?" Will countered.

"HIs problem is that due the time being immortal he got so many death blows he got resistant to pain" told Kuran with a sight before Faith comes back and gave Kuran water

"So what did you think of your Husband in action?" Will asked her.

"Given I have seen him fighting before he is impressive" she laughs "And to disappoint you: We didn't marry yet"

"Well whatever it's clear that it's still happening." He smiled.

"That is true" told Kuran and Faith punches Will "That is for making him lie here! We wanted a good evening"

"Trust me, after an intense fight like this can make a planned evening more….Exciting." Will stated.

"You can be such an idiot"

Will then noticed something about Faith's aura.

"As perverted as this sounds: Have you two done it yet?"

"Will… why do you think we got kicked out of the party by Disney Castle?" asks Kuran with a blush.

"That's right! And I have even a video from this!" declared Lea "And send it to everybody I know"

Will soon turned to Kuran. "Congratulations it's going to be a girl."

Kuran looked at Will, back at Faith who looked back before turning to Will

"I am pregnant?" asks the girl.

"It's faint but yeah, I'm seeing a different Aura coming from you." Will explained.

"I need to see a doctor" told Faith "I need to confirm it"

"So Serena is on the way" laughs Kuran "Faith and I have agreed to name our first girl like that"

"Serena huh? It's a nice name."

"Thanks" told Kuran "If it were a boy, the name would be Ancelot"

"Sounds classy." He smiled.

"We wanted this name" told Faith.

"It's a good name anyway like I said congratulations"

"Thanks" told Kuran and laughs "Damm" That is quite a surprise"

"Speaking of kids. Christe and Tia finally had their eggs." He smiled.

"Congratulations Will" told Kuran "What are they?"

"A boy we name Kevin and a girl we gave the name Carrie." He smiled

Scratching his head Kuran told "For some reasons the names sound familiar"

"You think so?"

He nods "Yeah I heavily think so"

"Wired…Anyway I'm so happy I can finally be a father, it's been so long for me. now I finally have some eggs of my own." Will said, before the word egg reminded him of something.

"Oh crap I totally forgot something!"

And they all looked at him in wonder "Will… what is wrong?" asks Kuran.

"I just remember that I have something for you." He said. "Can you walk yet?"

Kuran tried it but Faith had to help her boyfriend and Kuran got over."What do you have?"

"You don't HAVE to get up. Anyway it's a surprise." Will said getting up himself.

"Are you sure you should be moving?" Riku asked.

"I've had worse." Will said before popping his neck a few time before leaving.

"How the heck is he not dead yet?" Roxas wondered.

"Sheer luck" guessed Kuran "And not smart enough to realize he should be death yet"

"Guy knows how to keep fighting that's for sure." Ven added.

Kuran got back into the bed and wondered "Just what is he getting…"

About 30 minutes or so passed before Will came back with something wrapped in cloth.

"Here we go, consider it my early present for the wedding you've yet to plan." He said before handing it over to Kuran.

Kuran took it and began to unwrap the clothes from it. what he found was what looked like a large black egg. "An egg?" asks Kuran in surprise while eying the oval and delicate object.

"That's right. It sort of appeared one day at the Eye of Aurora. Looking at it, I got this weird feeling telling me that it should be with you, so here it is." Will said.

"Neat… thanks Will .But… can you tell a bit more about it? I have not a single clue what kind of egg this is."

"I literally told all I know about this I'm just as clueless as you." He admitted.

Wrapping the egg into the clothes again Kuran chuckles "looks like I have to get an incubator to hatch it"

"Why do think I've wrapped it up."

"I thought only to keep the warmth as long as possible."

"Well you could let Lea hold on to it for a bit" Will said.

"Oh ha ha very funny."

"I want to hatch it, not to fry it" told Kuran

"Sure keep laughing it up." Lea huffed.

"No need to be such a...Hothead." Sora joked.

"Nice." Roxas laughed.

"Sorry but on this one I have to agree with Lea: Lame" told Kuran and Aqua nods to this

"Well I thought it was good." Will added.

"That only proves that it WAS lame." Terra added.

"But seriously: How to ensure this egg gets the right temperature?" asks Kuran "And… sure it isn't from Florra in some strange way?"

"The dragoness you told me about?" asks Faith

"I could be, I mean when I first found it she was the one hold on to it." Will said.

"W-What are you talking about? Who is Florra?" asks Sora confused

"A dragoness from Wills universe" told Kuran "We… had a relationship for a time being"

"Among other things…" Will mused.

"Wait… are you telling… this egg… is…" asked Aqua and points between Kuran and the egg.

The boy shook his head "From what I learned about Aura dragons biology it was WAY too much time since I have even seen her. Let alone… this once… incident"

Turning to Will he told "Still mad at her for giving me an energy drink WITHOUT telling that it makes one sex crazy when using the first time"

"I know..Anyway I don't know what she was doing with it. According to her it just sort of appeared."

"Really odd" told Roxas and Aqua wondered "And you are sure it is safe to give it Kuran and not somebody who could know something about it or at least build up safety nets in case something goes wrong?"

"I sensed a strong darkness in it. but at the same time it doesn't feel evil or malicious, a darkness that's very similar to his." Will said as he felt the egg.

"Are you telling that Kurans counterpart is in there?" jokes Roxas.

"I'm honestly not sure…"

"You are not serious?" asks Aqua.

"I am."

"You know… something is disturbing me" told Mickey "Since when can you control heartless Kuran?"

"I can only control this new type and only those I 'tamed'" explained Kuran "I found them with an expedition to the Dark Plains to see if any survivors still exist and found a village… some time after the battle for the X-Blade these heartless appeared and began hunting other heartless and went into a symbiosis with the village: The people lure the heartless close and these predators are hunting them down. And for some reasons after I fed a couple of them with my darkness, they followed me and listened for my orders, as long I kept feeding them. In fact we don't even have a name yet."

So they hunt down other Heartless even though there Heartless too?"

"Yes" told Kuran "In fact whenever they devour another heartless, the heartless isn't regenerating. The heart is released like as it was defeated by a keyblade. And the released heart does one of two things: Either returning to kingdom hearts to gather darkness to form a new one of the predator type"

"Does this mean here are hearts that decides to stay like that?" asks Sora in disbelieve.

"Hearts determined to fight the darkness, even when there already swallowed…" Terra pondered.

"Think maybe that's why they listen to you?" Will asked.

"Not sure" told Kuran "They are showing intelligence but behave mostly like animals"

"Interesting.."Riku said.

"Well as long as they're not harming innocent live I don't really see the harm." Will added.

"They only hunt those I order to be hunted or if they are showing extreme strong darkness" told Kuran "Or they getting provoked"

"I still don't like it" told Mickey "This doesn't sound natural"

"Neither does the concept of Kuran bearing a piece of the X-blade or creatures made of light lashing out at people for so much as looking at them funny...What's your point?" Will countered.

"That all can be at least explained reasonable" told Kairi "The light bearers fight whatever darkness they find, reason not asked, the piece is due Maleficent putting it into his heart to save his life, part of the deal with his father."

"Still an uneasy concept though."

"Yeah… I still wonder where she got that piece" told Kuran "And didn't realize it's power".

"I'm willing to bet she didn't really know what it was and saw it simply as something that can give her more power." Ven thought.

"Still you can't help but wonder how she found it." Lea added.

"So unless we find her, we cannot ask her" shrugs Kuran

"Knowing how she is she'll more than likely come to us at one point." Kairi said.

"Yeah" told Aqua "But I prefer that she gives up on her plans. But she will never do this favour"

"And who knows WHERE she is right now"

"in the meantime, you guys want to come up with a name for those Heartless?" Will asked.

"And how should we name them?" asks Riku

"What would sound good for a Heartless that acts like that?" Sora thought.

"Dark Hunters?" jokes Lea

"Too obvious." Roxas said.

"That's why it was used as joke" told Lea

"What do you think?" Will asked Kuran.

Kuran was in deep in thought and wondered "Shadow Predators?"

"For some reason that sounds cooler." Will said.

"And why not dark Hunter?" asks Sora "I think this sounds better"

"Not really" told Kuran

"Well considering that you're their leader, it'd only be fair that you decide what name sticks." Terra added.

"And I go with Dark Predators" told Kuran

"Well that settles it." Will smiles.

"Anything else we need to clear?"

"I don't think so."

"Actually…" began Sora "But… you said that Faith gets a girl. But how do you know? Babies are brought by the stork. So Faith cannot have it yet or know it. And why does she need to confirm it by the doctor?"

Kuran stared at Sora and asks "Sora… did you had ANY lessons in Biology?"

"He should have" told Kairi in disbelieve "We had this as we were 12"

"Don't worry I got this." Will said before dragging Sora outside.

"S-Should we let him explain it to Sora?" Aqua asked concerned.

"Yes" told Kuran "Yes we let him. I cannot stand having such an idiot around"

"Sora isn't an idiot" protested Kairi

Roxas laughs weakly "Well… then how do you name this… episode?"

Before Anyone could speak they all heard Sora from outside

"OH MY GOD!"

"I think he just learned the truth" told Kuran with a laugh

Soon Will came in by himself. "Well looks like I can finally check "Mess with Sora's innocence" Off my bucket list...Today is a good day." He said.

"He's not broken is he?" Riku asked.

"Nah he's more "Contemplating his life."

"How long does it take for him to recover?" asks Kuran

"In my opinion: I'd give him 2-3 weeks….But I've been wrong before."

"What if Maleficent strikes before that?" asks Terra

"Well a good attack should be able to snap him out of it.

Kuran chuckles and shares a kiss with Faith before breaking it in surprise as the egg began to shake.

"Is it hatching already!?" Will asked

Getting the wraps off, cracks were seen on the egg and Kuran told "Apparently."

And they all watched as the cracks grew on the egg and Kuran asks "What… what I am supposed to do?"

"Let it." Will said as everyone watched.

And a head broke through. A black head with a purple forehead.

More of it started to break out the shell soon revealing a mostly black wyvern that had a matching purple scales on its collar and tipped tail along with light blue tips on its wings, the Wyvern slowly opened eyes revealing them to be light yellow with dark purple pupils

"A wyvern?" Will asked curiously as he examined the baby.

"Looks that way" told Kuran and went close to it, getting somehow it's attention.

It looked at him and sniffed him a bit. Staying still, Kuran wondered what the little wyvern would think of him while he slowly moves his hand to the little creature.

It sniffed it's hand a bit before rubbing against him a little before yawning and falling asleep in his arms. Smiling Kuran stroke the little one and asks "Do you know the gender?"

Will examine the baby before answering.

"It's a girl."

"Then I name her Merida" smiles Kuran

Looking at this, Terra wondered "Do you even know how to handle her?"

"He's had his fair share of handling all kinds of Dragons on our journey, don't worry about it." Will vouched.

"Even raising some from egg?" asks Xion and then Lea cried in pain and they saw that a book was at his feet and the way Lea was holding his head, it must have hit him.

"From where… does this book come from?" asks Faith in wonder while Mickey picked the book up "How to raise a Wyvern. From XSDStitch"

"Well..If he didn't before he does now." Riku sweat dropped.

"Indeed" told Kuran "But wouldn't it be… less wall breaking mixed with deus ex machina if he had at least let me find it in a bookstore or so?"

"I'd imagine so." Aqua stated.

"Well it kind of doesn't matter anymore at this point." Will said.

"Point here" told Kuran while stroking the sleeping wyvern as Faith picked up the book and looked at it, mostly if here is something they have to look out when taking the freshly hatched wyvern back home. And perhaps having a hint what kind of wyvern she is.

"Well this has been a fun filled day." Ven stated.

"Yeah no kidding." Will smiled.

"So what are you going to do now?" Terra asked.

"Well, After relaxing and healing up, I've been thinking of starting my own mercenary business, I like to fight so I might as well make it a job, y'know?"

"Are you that bored in your palace?" chuckles Kuran "And how much do you charge from people?"

"Haven't worked on those details yet." He confessed.

"Then good luck on this" laughs Kuran

"Good luck with your new pet." Will countered.

"Thanks" told Kuran and Faith wondered "Anything else you want to do or is it time for good bye?"

"Still got to rest up a bit first you know.." He smiled.

"Then do" told Aqua

"That's the plan right now." He said laying back down on his bed. Kuran did the same while Faith took Merida off from him but the little Wyvern woke up from this and jumped back at Kuran, refusing to leave his side.

Looking at Will he asks "Is she thinking I am mommy?"

"More than likely. a lot of babies have a tendency to attach themselves to the first person they see when they are born." He explained

"I am more surprised that she is already fit enough to simply jump back to "mommy" instead of whining to get the attention" told Ven while scratching the head "I mean is this normal for a freshly hatched hatchling?"

"Well it's not like it's a human baby." Will countered.

"But a hatchling" told Lea "And do you know how most hatchlings look like?"

"Do you live with dragons?" Will countered.

Lea looked at him for a while before telling "no"

"Thought so...In any case most dragon hatchlings have been known to be physically stronger than most other babies, they usually are up and about within the span of about 3-4 weeks."

"Eh… this little fella hatched only some time ago. So up and about shouldn't be for weeks according to you. And I have no idea how dragons and Wyverns are really related" told Lea.

"Lea… can't you just accept it is that way and done?" sighs Roxas

"But he does have one good point: It's always a good idea to keep an eye on them...But that's more common sense." Will said.

"Agree on this matter" told Terra "What a weird day today"

"Eh, compared to what Kuran and I have been dealing with, it's actually pretty normal."

"That makes me worry" told Aqua

"Well nothing left now but to let the future happen, whatever it is." Will stated.

with that the others agreed. And then they heard a snore… Kuran has fallen asleep and Merida was lying on his chest, curled in and sleeping as well.

Will smiled a bit before laying his head down, going to sleep himself.

Faith went to Kuran side to look after them while the others began to leave.
