The screen flickers for a bit before the author appears, typing away at a computer.

*Hey guys Hakuorofan7 here and welcome to another chapter of Twilit Mages.*

*Surprised to see it out after only a week after the previous chapter. Well let's just say that I wished to get this arc done and leave it at that. Also it was perfectly timed with an update for Hanyo of Snow, making this the second chapter of the update.*

*Also as a reminder for those still grip about spelling especially with a few words, it's Ulitemica's verbal tic. Pronouncing hard c as a k. The rest though...I will admit human error on that part.*

*So anyway let us move onto the the story, shall we.*

*First off I do not own Kingdom Hearts and Fairy Tail.*

*Secondly just sit back, relax, maybe put some music on, and enjoy. I will see you all at the end of the chapter.*

The author snaps his fingers and the screen fades to black as the chapter begins.

Hearts

Xion woke up with a groan, her vision blurry and feeling herself being bound to something.

A few seconds later she saw that she was once again back in the guild's infirmary, wrapped up in blankets.

"I figured that you would wake first, but not for another hour or so." A crankous old voice said, getting Xion to move her head with a groan to face the speaker.

The voice belonged to a tall elderly woman with pink hair tied back into a bun by two large hairpins and with reddish eyes. Most of her clothing was hidden behind a crimson cloak with the edges adorned by white arch like patterns and a wide color adorned with what appeared to be claws.

But what drew Xion's attention the most was her heart.

Compared to everyone else she has encountered so far in Earthland, this woman lacked a certain density around her heart.

A little strange perhaps, but who was she to complain about the strangeness of someone's heart when she was basically housing Ultimecia's heart.

However upon closer inspection of the woman, Xion knew who she was from Makarov's description of her and her particular...quirks including being a hermit and her discrepancies about humans despite being one herself.

"Your Porlyusica, aren't you?" Xion asked, getting the older woman to nod. "That would explain why no one else is in this room."

"You got that right, I hate the smell of humans. But as Markarov has explained it, the two of you are not exactly human." Porlyusica said before holding up a glass filled with a greenish brown liquid and handing it to the Replica. "Drink this slowly, it will help with your regulate you blood flow."

"Thank you." Xion did, doing as she asked and kept quite of about the bitter taste. "So I take it that Markarov called you to check on us with our new hearts and whatever side effects would come through it."

"Got it in one, I am not sure of the anatomy of a Nobody or a Replica and how different they are from a human's. Yet it is all the same in that suddenly getting a new organ would have drastic effects on your both of your bodies. Your lucky that all you two got was going into obstructive shock. Well except for Roxas that is." Porlyusica said before walking to a nearby table with a mortar and pestle was.

"What's wrong with him?" Xion asked, trying and failing to sit up and get a better look at her friend.

"Suddenly gaining a heart disrupted both the flow of blood within both of your bodies and the flow of magic within your bodies. They adjusted fairly quickly to the strain and you should be able to be up and walking with the hour." Porlyusica said as she used the mortar and pestle to ground a bunch of herbs together. "However in the three hours that I have been here, you stabilized earlier."

"And Roxas didn't." Xion said, dread filling her as Porlyusica nodded as she finished grinding the herbs into a fine powder.

"Physically he is stable, but the flow of Ethernano or whatever the other worldly equivalent of it is still disrupted. Until it is resolved, he will not be waking up anytime soon. I can work on that, but there is something that I have never worked on before. Something I believe that you might know." The medicinal advisor said as she poured the powder into new glass, turning the medicine inside into an earthy brown.

She walked over to the side and Xion finally got a good look at Roxas and immediately wished she hadn't.

He was unconscious and bit pale looking, but other then that he looked fine physically.

But all around him was an aura of darkness.

Sensing his heart it was completely enshrouded by darkness, but it was slowly getting a balance.

But what was causing this imbalance had her worried beyond belief.

"Judging by the look of your face, you figured out what was happening." Porlyusica said as she slowly poured the medicine down his throat.

"Yes it seems gaining a heart has also caused an imbalance with his light and darkness, judging but what I sensed he should be alright in a matter of time." Xion said somewhat truthfully, getting the elder woman to study the Replica for a few moments before finishing up with Roxas.

"I will have to take your word for it since I have absolutely no experience dealing with what you consider the heart outside of the physical sense." Porlyusica sighed out as she placed the glass on a table and grabbed a nearby broom. "You should be alright for me to leave you alone for a few minutes. I promised Markarov that I would let him and the rest of those humans know when either one of you were awake and stable. Only way that I could get rid of them. Now if anything changes even in the slightest about Roxas's condition, let me know immediately no matter how minute."

"Believe me I will." Xion said, getting the older woman to let out a gruff nod before exiting the infirmary and there was a chorus of muffled yelling behind the door.

While she was smiling at the guild being worried about them, it quickly turned into a frown as she turned to face Roxas.

What she didn't say at all that while Roxas's heart was imbalanced, it was much worse then that.

The imbalance was fixing itself, but all the darkness was coming from the fragment of Ultimecia's heart within him.

Xion silenced the room as the mirror appeared before her and revealed Ultimecia.

"What is happening to Roxas, I thought that it was supposed to sealed away. Not overpowering his heart like this!" Xion shouted, uncaring if the sorceress would scold her.

"It is sealed, though strangely his heart was already doing so on it's own. The darkness within his heart is akting as a barrier from the fragment and the darkness surrounding him is the overflow that will vanish soon enough, but the seal is only a stop gap measure. Roxas's heart will grow too strong for the seal and then the real trouble will start." Ultimecia said.

"How many do you need?" Xion asked, surprising the sorceress and getting her to grin.

"Oh well this is a surprise, I didn't think that you had it in you to ask such a thing." Ultimecia said a little happily.

"I just gotten him back and now I find out that my actions might result in him becoming a Heartless if this seal breaks. You said if you had gained enough magic that you could remove your fragment from him. So I will ask once again, how many do you need?" Xion asked steely, hating everything that she was thinking.

But if it would prevent Roxas from being consumed by darkness and ridding herself off of Ultimecia even faster then so be it.

"Now, now there will be no need for that. I kan wait a few days for us to begin as we had promised." Ultimecia said with a placating gesture before turning serious. "Besides the amount needed would be vast to even safely remove the fragment and him turning into a Heartless would be the lest of your worries."

"What do you mean?" Xion asked, getting Ultimecia the grin.

"Open your senses my dear, only on the fragment." The sorceress said, getting Xion to comply.

And she wished that she didn't.

It was darkness, pure darkness laced with dispare and hatred. It felt primordial, inhuman, and far powerful then any Heartless she had encountered.

And worse it felt alive.

"How?" Xion asked, wondering how a human heart can create something like that!

Even with how powerful Ultimecia was there is no way she could have...

Realization dawned upon Xion along of horror at what came to her mind.

"The fragment...it is from when you were one with everything." Xion said, getting the sorceress to nod.

"It is, while you hold my human heart it wasn't always like that. Converting my heart and unbinding it from everything wasn't flawless. There are multiple fragments of y heart everywhere now, which compared to a regular heart would be just a few slivers. Painful but you kan live through it. But when I was one with everything, such a fragment would be pretty powerful. A fragment like that would break off and grow a will on it's own. And as my heart was consumed with utter hatred, well you kan imagine the results." Ultamecia said, getting Xion to groan.

Seems like the worlds were or currently going to be hit by a wave of powerful and intelligent Heartless. Seems like the Organization, Riku, and anyone else against the Heartless.

With one of them now existing within and concurrent to Roxas's heart.

"Though this fragment has not matured into a Heartless yet. The seal will make sure of that, however once it breaks it will try and consume his heart. Then take control of his body like a Geist Heartless and reek havoc on this world in the pursuit of hearts." Ultimecia said, getting Xion to growl and draw out her claws. "There will be no need for that."

To the surprise of Xion another mirror formed right next to her before angling towards Roxas. The sorceress sent out a bolt of magic that bounced off the mirror and shattering it as it landed dead center on the Nobody's chest.

He twitch violently for a few moments before settling down, with the darkness around him starting to disapaite.

Xion sensed that something was happening with Roxas's heart and the fragment. The latter seemed to be wavier while the former's light increased.

"Your turning the fragment's darkness into light." Xioon said as Ultimecia nodded as the mirror began to crack.

"A simple enough spell and while it does strengthen Roxas's heart, it will weaken the fragment's power slightly and will inkrease the odds of him surviving when the seal breaks." Ultamecia said with a frown. "Now with this I believe that is everything I agreed on my side of the deal, next time we interakt you will uphold your end of the deal."

The mirror shattered and Xion sighed as she ended the lying in wait

Well this was just great, she had given Roxas a heart of his own but now with a Heartless in the making as well.

Looks like she had inadvertledly created another mess to deal with, but at least this seal and Ultimecia's spell will delay it for now. Hopefully until she could help Ultimecia recover enough strength to rip it out of his chest.

But for now she would figure out how to explain this to Roxas when he woke up...

"I would say congratulations are in order, but I suppose now is not the time is it." A voice called out, getting Roxas to groan as he opened his eyes and came face to face with Ven.

The Nobody got up with a groan and Ven backed up. His vision was blurry for a few seconds, but when he cam to he saw that it was the same area he had meet his lookalike.

Except the whiteness was replaced by darkness and the circular structure was now a mosaic platform.

One that depicted him at Twilight Town on the clock tower with Lea and Xion.

Then to Roxas's surprise the mosaic shifted to include both the same image and two more onto appeared on the platform. One depicting him and Xion joining Fairy Tail and the other featuring the two of them surrounded by the guild before the pulsing began.

"Amazing isn't it, I didn't even know someone could do that within their own heart until I tried it myself." Ven said with a smile, shocking Roxas.

"Wait you mean-" "That's right this right here is your heart, at lest the metaphysical representation of it. But still this is your heart and if Xion's reaction was of any indication she has one as well." Ven interject while Roxas continued to look on in shock.

It was hard to believe, a quick check of himself sowed it all too quickly.

He had a heart, an actual heart beating inside his chest and if Ven was to be believed then the Xion had one as well.

This should have been impossible, Kingdom Hearts was supposed to be the only thing capable of granting a Nobody a heart. Unless of course...

"Whatever brought us here and changed Xion, that is the only explanation. It was capable of bending reality to such a degree that it is possible for us to gain hearts ." Roxas rationalized, getting Ven to nod.

"While that is true, sadly it doesn't seem to have all been for the best." Ven said, getting Roxas to look confused before laughter erupted around them.

"That is a understatement brother!" A voice Roxas remembered as Vanitas's laughed out as what the Nobody could best describe as a little shadow appeared not far from them, getting Roxas to summon out his Keyblades. "Easy there I do not plan to fight, especially after barely escaping that mass of darkness outside."

Roxas looked apprehensive, but Ven just sighed and put a hand in front of him.

"It's alright, if Vanitas is truly here to cause trouble he would have already done so. Besides he can't to anything with the two of us are here." Ven said, getting Vanitas to growl at him but nothing else.

"Fine, but what's this about a mass of darkness?" Roxas asked, not letting his guard down.

"Well if you must know it is exactly as it is exactly what I said, there is a mass of darkness right outside of your heart. And from the way it's acting then there is a good chance that it could become a Heartless, if that accursed seal wasn't up." Vanitas grumbled out, shocking Roxas.

It was hard to believe, but it wasn't that far out there.

Vexen's experiment went wrong and it produced a giant Heartless that was put down after trashing the lab. So it was possibly another one to have been created after he had reactivated it, just he didn't inspect it to be inside him of all places.

The price to pay for saving Xion from nonexistence he supposed.

That doesn't mean he was going to take this lying down after all.

"I take it that neither of you can remove it?" Roxas asked, getting the both of them to shake their heads.

"No can do, why do you think I am here. That thing almost got me and I am pretty sure if it did then it will be the end of me in my current state." Vanitas growled out.

"And even if I could, I am using all the energy I can to keep this seal up. Though the good news is that it seems to be weakening." Ven said, getting Vanitas to scoff.

"Barely, it will take forever for it to get to a point when it won't be a threat to this heart. So I am willing to call a truce then and helping with the seal, if only to make sure I get out of this alive. After that all bet's are off." Vanitas said, getting Ven to nod.

"Wouldn't expect anything else from you." Ven sighed out before he turned to Roxas. "I know this is not the best solution, but it is the only one that we can do at the moment. The only way I can think to successfully remove this darkness is to get Aqua or Terra into this world. Other then that you are out of options."

The Nobody processed all of that for a minute, before sighing.

He couldn't figure out a way himself to get rid of this darkness on his own. And considering he didn't even know if he would meet either Terra or Aqua again, he would have to search for a way to do so on this world then.

After he told Xion about all of this of course.

A second later felt himself being pulled away and looked at himself fading away.

"Looks like your time is nearly up, shame too. I was hoping to have some fun." Vanitas said with his tone laced with snark, getting Ven to sigh once again.

"Well maybe that is a good thing, if our first meeting was your idea of fun than consider me not amused." Roxas said, getting the shadowy figure to pause before letting out a laugh.

"That was a good one, oh why couldn't you have been my other half and not this weakling." Vanitas said, jabbing a finger at Ven.

"Well I didn't ask for my heart to have been split in two." Ven said.

"But you were willing to nearly kill yourself once we merged again, condemning us to spend the rest of our existence's to next to nothing in that little boy's heart and now Roxas's own." Vanitas said, getting Roxas to look on in shock before sighing out.

"So your heart was in Sora's, I suppose that explains a few things. Like why I look nothing like him. Though how did the two of you end up in my heart then?" Roxas asked, as he started to fade away even faster.

"Same way you got here apparently, though we don't exactly have anytime to cover any other details but let's just say that it wasn't pleasent." Vanitas said with a shiver.

"For once we agree." Ven said with a shiver before facing Roxas. "Still it looks like our time is up. Well keep up the seal and if anything happens...well I am pretty sure you'll know if we can't contact you first. Still what I suggest for now is to enjoy your new life, both you and Xion deserve it."

"Don't worry we will. Hopefully next time we meet it will be under less strenuous circumstances." Roxas said as he nearly faded completely.

"Hopefully, Roxas." Ven said with a smile. "And one last thing, thank you for showing Terra and Aqua that I am alright."

"I wouldn't call this situation alright, but your welcome Ven. " Roxas said with a smile before fading away.

"Have to agree with Roxas there, this situation is not alright. It has taken 10 years for someone to screw the old coot over while everyone you have cared about or has ever touched in someway has suffered due to his actions. Still not that I can't complain. It just makes everything easier for me once I break out of here." Vanitas said.

"Like I would allow that." Ven said, throwing his darker half a glare.

"Oh I know, but that will have to wait until after deal with this accursed darkness. That thing will is going to be a pain to hold back." Vanitas sighed out.

"And I guess that is your plan, wait until that thing wares us out enough and try to escape after it is gone." Ven said, getting Vanitas to laugh.

"Got that right weakling, though it will take it's toll on me as well. I said that I was going to be free and that is what I intend to do." Vanitas said, getting Ven to sigh.

"You never change do you." Ven said while shaking his head, only getting his dark half to laugh again.

"Not at all, not in the past 10 years while your were asleep and I was nothing more then the source of nightmares for that little boy. Those were good times. I will get free one day, but for now let's just focus on keeping the darkness at bay...by Kingdom Hearts that is something that I thought I would never say." Vanitas as he summoned his Keyblade.

"You and me both." Ven said as he did the same thing.

The two of them trained their Keybaldes upward and launched two beams of light heavenward into the void, hitting the seal and beginning their long virgil of maintaining it.

Roxas woke up groggily and began to cough as he felt some kind of bitter liquid being forced down his throat.

"No you don't." A crankous voice said as he felt even more of the liquid being poured down his throat. "Can't let you waste even a single drop of this brat."

"Believe me Roxas the taste might take some getting used to, this will help you in the long run." Xion's voice ran out as his vision cleared up to see that he was in bed with Xion nearby him and an older woman who scoffed.

"Tell me about, unlike a potion this actually has quite the taste to it." Roxas groaned out as he tried to sit up only to have to lie back down with a grimace.

"You have been out for over 5 hours, just gained a heart, and have gone into shock before finally stabilizing. You are going to need a for a bit more before you can be able to get out of bed. Other then that the both of you are almost ready to be dismissed from my care. Just give me a second." Porlyusica said before walking off to the other side of the room.

"So Roxas how does it finally feel to have a heart?" Xion asked Roxas with a smile.

"Honestly...it feels kind of weird. Having this weight in my chest, it will take some getting used to. But I suppose I don't feel any different, a little less empty perhaps. Still I am at least happy the two of us finally got hearts." Roxas said with a sigh, getting the Replica to frown.

She had not anticipated that kind of response.

But she supposed that it will take some time to get used to it.

"I suppose you feel that way because of how we were formed, without having to experience a heart for ourselves until now. I suppose the two of us would have to experience of finding that out together." Xion said with a smile.

"And I wouldn't have it any other way Xion." Roxas said happily.

A moment later a loud grunt caused the two of them to turn to Porlyusica, a sly smile on the older woman's face as she approached the two of them.

"I would hate to ruin the moment, but I would prefer to be home right now and away from this human infected infected hive." Porlyusica said gruffly as she walked up to Xion and handed her a tiny glass jar containing a brown liquid. "Mix this with water before going to bed and immediately after you wake up."

"This is too help our bodies get used to our hearts isn't it?" Roxas asked.

"More then that, it is to help make sure that your blood is circulating properly, gaining hearts messed up whatever was circulating your blood. This will help you regulate your blood flow until I deem you both fit enough. Until then you both will see me every two days at my home in order to check on your conditions. A member of the guild will show you where, just be sure to keep them out of my house while your at it." Porlyusica growled out before clearing her throat. "So until I clear you two no training, missions, or any other strenious activities of any kind. Normally most of the guild is too thickheaded to listen to that, but at least one of you seems smart enough to listen to reason."

"Actually the both of us are, though Roxas is the more stubborn one." Xion said slyly, getting him to sigh.

"Hate to refute that, but she is right." Roxas said honestly, getting the old woman to let out a small laugh.

"Guess I was wrong then." Porlyusica said with a small smile before frowning as she grabbed her broom. "I will be seeing the both of you in two days. Unless of course the two of you do anything foolish, which I doubt. But I have to impart some wisdom into those foolish humans outside the infirmary."

With a grumble the medicinal advisor walked towards the door. She opened it and began swinging her broom and yelling at the guild members to get back before slamming the door shut, much to the bemusement of Xion.

"Well today has certainly been surprising day." Roxas sighed out.

First it was turning a year old, then it was gaining a heart and going into shock, meeting Ven and Vanitas and all that entailed, and finally meeting a healer that hates humans.

It was defiantly an interesting day for the Nobody...or was he a Somebody now due to gaining an heart? He would think about it later.

"It certainly was Roxas." Xion sighed out as she looked between him in the door, figuring with the muffled yelling going on they at least had some time before they got in here, "Though there is something you should know-"

"It is the darkness around my heart isn't it. Ven already told me." Roxas said, getting Xion to looked surprised for a moment before regaining her composure.

"Yes it is, but how exactly did Ven tell you? You said that you saw him in what you believed to be his heart?" Xion asked.

"He was in Sora's heart all along with Vanitas, for years perhaps if Terra was of any indication. I don't know how, but I wond up inside my heart, apparently whatever happened caused them to move into my heart." Roxas explained, getting Xion to nod.

"I suppose that is why you look like him if what you told me is true. And I suppose that he is responsible for the darkness not to consume your heart." Xion said.

"Him and Vanitas, though for the later it is only to survive. It is a temporary fix though and the only way Ven knew to get rid of it was to get Terra or Aqua here." Roxas sighed out. "Never got the chance to explain how though."

"And considering how you described their current situation, I doubt they would be of much help if they could enter this world there is. Though maybe there is a solution in this world we could look into." Xion said, getting Roxas to nod.

"I was thinking the same thing, but what I am more concerned about is how to tell the others." He said, surprising her. "Believe me I would very much like to get rid of this darkness...but as Ven suggested it is probably for the best to enjoy this new life while we can."

Xion paused for a moment upon hearing that before nodding.

That was probably their best course of action to take.

While they could look for ways to deal with Ultimecia's fragment on this world, he was in no immediate danger so far.

They could live out their lives here while she strengthening the sorceress inside of her while Ven and Vanitas held back the fragment until she was strong enough to remove it.

If everything went accordingly then she could get rid of the fragment, rid herself of Ultimecia, and maybe rid Roxas of this Vanitas while she was at it. All of her and Roxas's troubles gone in one fell swoop.

But she could start focusing on that tomorrow.

It was still their birthday after all.

"Honestly Roxas that is a good idea and I think we should tell Markarov when we get a chance to talk with him alone. As for the rest of our friends, let us wait until Porlyusica thinks that we are healthy enough. They are already worried enough as it is with us collapsing suddenly, this will only worry them even more." Xion said, getting Roxas to nod.

As of right now it was their best option. That and he didn't want to worry his friends anymore today.

A moment later the two of them heard the door opening and in rushed Natsu.

He ran towards them at full speed, only to stop when Xion had put up a barrier that he crashed into.

"Natsu I thought that Porlyusica would have knocked some sense into you." Xion sighed out.

Natsu pulled himself off the barrier with a groan.

"The old hag tried to, but his head is too thick to process it." Mickey said as she and her team walked in along with Levy, Lucy, and Elfman. "Still though it is a shame you two can't go on missions, I had just picked the perfect one too."

"I still demand a rematch!" Natsu shouted, lighting his fist on fire.

Only for another barrier to slam into him and knock the dragon slayer flat on his ass.

"That would be enough on that." Xion sighed.

"Agreed, it isn't manly to pick a fight in the infirmary." Elfman said, getting Wan to nod.

"Or anywhere else, I had my fill of seeing everyone fighting today. Especially what had nearly happened with the cake." Lucy sighed out.

"What happened to the cake?" Roxas asked.

" Let's just say some of us got antsy while waiting to hear about you two and it lead to a brawl that nearly ruined your cake." Joey said, while holding out is hands upon receiving inquisitive looks from the two. "It is fine, Mira managed to salvage it and she should be here in a minute. So please do not turn into Erza."

The two new Somebodies both sharing a look with each other before sighing out.

"I guess we should have expected something like this happen in Fairy Tail." Roxas said with a small smile.

"Guess we should, though can someone please tell us who this Erza is and what they hve to do with cake?" Xion asked, getting most of the mages to shudder.

"Maybe another time, but let's just say it isn't pretty." Chico said with a shudder.

"Besides there is more important matters, like how are you two adjusting to having hearts." Levy said, getting them both to nod.

"Honestly it is a strange feeling to have one, but then again I just woke up not that long ago. So I am not all that used to it. But to tell the truth...I don't really feel all that excited to have one." Roxas said truthfully.

"Neither do I. This should normally should be a big deal for us, after all we spent most our lives working to get a heart...only to feel indifferent upon recieving one." Xion said, both of their comments surprising most of the mages.

"Really, after everything that both of you said about Nobodies and the lack of hearts I would have thought that the two of you would have loved this. Especially today of all days." Mickey said.

"What if maybe the reason the both of you feel like this, is because the two of you don't need one?" Lucy said, getting everyone to look at her in surprise. "What?"

The room was silent for about a whole minute, before Xion groaned and face palmed.

"Why didn't I think about it." Xion groaned out. "It was how we formed. That's why we still feel that way about our hearts."

Upon hearing that, Roxas simply copied her actions.

"Does someone want to explain what is going on with the face palming?" Mickey asked.

"As we said before, the two of us are different from other Nobodies. We had to learn how to emote on our own. And considering our conditions and regular Nobodies aren't supposed feel emotions..." Xion trailed off.

"The two of you developed emotions on your own, without hearts." Levy finished, getting Roxas and Xion to nod.

"So you two were pracitully human without your hearts then. Gaining them only completed the process." Lucy said.

"So what does it matter in the long run. As far as I am concerned they are and always will be Roxas and Xion. Nobody, Replica, or human. With hearts or without them." Natsu said, surprising everyone in the room.

Once again the room was fully silent for a moment, everyone staring at the fire mage dumbfounded.

"Natsu...that was manly." Elfman said, breaking the silence.

"Natsu that is honestly the smartest thing that you have ever said around me, and I mean ever." Mickey said in disbelief.

"Hey!" He shouted indignantly.

"Actually it was a good thing to say Natsu." Roxas said with a smile.

"Really puts things into perspective." Xion said truthfully.

She honestly meant it...at least as far as Roxas was concerned.

They had developed into their own identities, without ever having a Somebody to experience tings first hand. The rest of the Organization, they all lived their live as Somebodies before losing their hearts and becoming Nobodies and lost the ability to feel.

But for her and Roxas, they had to develop something that they didn't have in the first place.

So by the time Roxas gained his heart and she could pass off Ultimecia's as her own...they were already complete. A heart was just the finishing touch in order to become a human.

"Well that is a first for you ash breather." Gray called out as he walked into the room with Mira and Cana, each holding the cake and a barrel of liquor respectfully.

"Why you-" Natsu was about to shout and lunge at Gray, Mickey covered his mouth while Joey and Wan grabbed his arms.

"Natsu if you try anything right now I will personally put you through the floor once again." Mickey said.

"Please don't test her, I would rather not have to fix that another hole in the guild." Joey said, with Wan nodding in agreement.

After a few moments Natsu slacked in their grip.

"Fine, but the stripper better not try anything." Natsu grumbled out as he was let go.

Grey just smirked at that,only annoying the fire mage even further until Markarov entered the room.

"Normally I would save something like this outside of the infirmary, but since Porlyusica has...strongly advised that Roxas cant be moved." The guild master said before extending a hand and the flames on the candle lit up. "I would say make a wish you two, but with what happened today it might just come true."

Everyone let out a laugh at that before both Roxas and Xion shared a smile before blowing out the candles.

They didn't have the need for a wish, they had everything they needed right here. Well maybe expect for Lea, they could wish for him to join them. But for everything else, the were happy right here.

For now they were free of the Organization, surround by friends, and turning a year old after everything they had been through..

They couldn't have wished for anything better.

The screen flickered for a bit before the author reappeared.

*Hey guys Hakuorofan7 here and I hoped that you all enjoyed this chapter.*

*So as you can see Roxas has a potential Heartless within him. That thing won't be causing trouble for quit a while, but this isn't the only one.

And a glimpse of the danger Roxas could face one day.*

*Now then with this chapter over it is about time to move onto the main story.*

*Next chapter will have Roxas and Xion embark on their first mission for Fairy Tail, not going to reveal anymore details as to build suspense and I hope you all will enjoy the chapter when it comes out.*

*Now I promised a harem listing...well I have an announcement to make first.*

*I am splitting this story up into volumes, based what I have planned. Don't have an except number, but about 5 or 6 should do. So for harem I am doing the updates based on when the volumes occur and what I have planned.*

*So the ones I have to add now are...*

Mira

*...Well she is the only one for now. As I said I am doing this by volumes and while I do have another suggestion or two I will have to run it by my confidant for this situation.*

*Well anyway that is all for now.*

*If you have any suggestions or questions let me know and I will get back to you while I can. So until next time, ciao!*
