"Mothers here as well..why I thought you too would stay in radiant gardens where you are safe"said amaya.wincing when elyse yelled a "Calm down little one...you all can sense their presence "commented a gentle.voice of Rose as she follower putting away her fake witch hat she loved to wear to scare people for fun "It is good to see you both again, you have grown a bit stronger with your true self amaya.."said rose"but where is Joshua...I wanted to see how he is fairing against his own darkness"said rose "He went with riku to the basement to truly defeat his darkness. I am worried because he wished to do it on his own without me there...I mean what if he loses again? What if I don't make it in time??"she asked "He has to fight it himself for.to you his darkness is.like a disease yes? In truth, sadly some souls are meant to be in the dark to thrive in it. You and he may feel strong in the light but never will he be whole until he becomes one with his own self."she said rubbing her forehead "I lost all my light when I conceived you, which just made me feel as long as I was around you, my own darkness would be at bay..nope it just wanted to destroy you, a child of light, the new princess of heart...so I lost control many times and had to go away yuna and the others watched over you.many times as lucus went after me."said rose "it took me 4 Years to finally control my own darkness, to accept it." She commented "but mother...Joshua became a heartless when he released his heart to feawaken me...somehow I was able to bring him back from the heartless form...then here recently, he had grown jealous and the dark snow of Narnia, fueled his darkness but he snapped when magurim bit my arm. I was afraid of losing him again when I saw that other form and felt the evil, the darkness radiating from him. Ascot and some of the others fought him on the outside as I fought a dark dragon on the inside...in truth, what little light of him saved me as I somehow allowed my own to help him push that thing back"she commented sitting elyse down. "Did you noticed that the darkness couldn't truly touch your heart, to grow in you like many of us? Those of darkness are always drawn to the light, to try consuming the light of those who haven't fallen in its grip.."said rose "that is probably why there was that ambushed of those little heartless when you went missing, though I never seen them group that big around one person...I need to research that"said rose "Any who, have faith in Joshua, he survived all this time and went against a lot of people's wishes to find you when many of us spent months even a few years hoping to find you again...many of us had given up and told him to but that stubborn boy kept insisting that something kept telling him to continue..and he was right "said rose "if you wish to compare you are his kairi like he is your sora, there is no one else that can fill a gap like you both...you isn't whole without the other..though it is more like riku and kairi instead of sora"she said looking towards the stairs "just have faith...riku is with him so to make sure Joshua doesn't lose"she added before amaya nodded "Mother...you said you always wanted a son but only bared two daughters..well Ascot here has no family...would you be willing to adopt him? He is a child of light like me. He helped keep me safe when Joshua went scouting on his own...he helped me bring back Joshua "she said. "Plus, it would give elyse another playmate and family member "said amaya hoping rose would say yes. Rose turned to ascot moving over to him "is it true you wish to be my son?"she asked as amaya picked elyse up
