"nothing's wrong" Eric laughed
"I just remember how long it took for the girls to get me cleaned up...."

Kalena laughed,
"yeah you never really cleaned up until now, Eric. Yeah, I can definatly make some new clothes, more royal for you both."

"gah! Grandma!" Eric rubbed his face

Reiko laughed again, patting Eric's back.

"So Mom, are you glad to get away from the Academy again?" Amu asked.  

[kalenakeeper]

Eric smiled

Kalena looked to Amu
"yes, it is nice. It also gives me time to...." she coughs
"relearn a few things....like cooking and maybe how to drive a gummi ship"

Ash playfully placed his hands over his head meaning she was a bad driver.

"Now that you all have arrived, it would be an honor for me to escort you personally to my home." Reiko smiled at Kalena and held Eric's hand. "That is, unless you wish to stop somewhere first."

"Mhm!" Amu nodded.

Yama looked around, a bit anxious like he always was. "Well, at least we have time to do all that. It feels kinda good here. Better than last time."

Kalena smiled, but looked at Amu and Yama
"we can head to your home first, then I can find a place here...."

"oh yeah....Kalena....you may have to talk to Reiko's mother....."

"Er...." she was nervous.
"oh.....kay....."

Eric smiled when Reiko took his hand.

Reiko nodded again and led the family back towards the castle, occasionally, leaning on Eric to make him feel more at ease.

"You feeling okay, Ash?" Amu asked him, patting the small dragon.

Kalena looked around. She hasn't seen a world this healthy in a long time.

"So much light here. It feels nice."

Eric chuckled to what Kalena said.
"she seems surprised" he whispered to Reiko.

Ash looked to Amu and smiled.
"yeah. Im alright. Im just wondering what the legends of this place are. Ancient guardians and stuff"

Suddenly, Light Reiko appeared in front of the group, crossing her arms and looking quite agitated. "I sensed darkness coming from this world and went to investigate." She walked around the group before stopping in front of Amu.

"This one. He is seething in it, yet he looks like he's in full control..." Light Reiko looked intrigued.

"Sorry, Kalena. This is..." Reiko looked to Eric. "The guardian of the Heart? Which seems to be another me?"  

[kalenakeeper]

Ash tensed up when Light Reiko appeaered because he had the same darkness Amu had.

Kalena nodded
"Ah."

Eric nodded
"yes, and I protect this world along with Reiko and Light Reiko, the world heart's guardian." Eric explained.

Kalena sighs and looks to Light Reiko
"I will keep them under control, they are my children and if you wish for him to leave, we are leaving." Kalena said more like a mother than anything, as she held onto Amu and Yama.  

[TheRealKiru]

Amu held onto Kalena, frightened.

"They are...fine." Light Reiko said, hesitant in her decision. "You will control yourselves on this planet."  

[kalenakeeper]

Kalena nodded
"im sure they will be fine. This....is more a vacation.....for me....." she seemed bothered still that she had to leave the academy.

"you know why.....before I become insane....and stuff."

"yep, we are harmless." Ash grinned crawling on top of Amu's head.

"Well, you came here for some R&R, Kalena." Reiko said smiling. "I intend to make sure that you and your children shall receive that care. I am sure your feeling of worries shall move on its own."

Light Reiko eyed Ash before nodding silently and staying in her current position.

"Yep!" Au said to Ash, Yama patting his head. "We'll be sure not to break anything. Or steal." He said, remembering the days when he and his brother were natural pickpockets.  

[kalenakeeper]

Kalena smiled and nodded
"yeah.....I got a lot of worries" she laughed

Eric chuckled
"well hey, nothing bad is happening, kay. I should know."

Ash smiled and climbed to Yama's shoulders next.

[Knux_nyan]

A portal opened up in the field as both Eclipse and Sophia stepped out. "Its been a long time since i was here." He said taking a deep breath of air from the field.

Sophia looked around, she seemed very worried looking around. She hasn't seen this world since she was watching X destroy it years ago.

A bolt of light came right at Sophia hitting her square in the chest

Sophia fell hard onto the ground which immediately made vines appear binding her to the ground


A person walked up, it seemed to be Eric, but only half, his voice was monotone.
Eclipse, why have you brought her here. Do you not know she is dangerous, other than the crimes she did against my grandmother and the heart of this world."
