If everyone were going home, did that mean that she was going to get lost again? Sherry crossed her arms and sighed deeply. She didn't want to be lost again. That wasn't fair.

"Are you okay, sweetie?"

The prospect grew more horrible and frightening the more she thought about it. "Because, if that's the case... I don't want to go."

"The universe that they're from, the one this place was copied from, it's our world. If we just go back to that Manhattan, you'll be in the future by ten years, but..." she hesitated, biting her lip and considering Sherry for a moment. "I can take care of you. If you want to stay with me."

Somehow, as she walked up behind his chair and put a hand on his shoulder, she thought she knew what Fletcher was going through. She forced a smile.

It was almost a difficult choice. Almost. But his mind was made up. The only thing that was making him pace was worrying about how a couple of people would react.

But at the same time...that meant they had to say goodbye to friends. Sora had done these sort of goodbyes before, and like those, he was determined for this to not be their final one. He'd made so many friends here, so many people that had all touched his heart...he couldn't give them up. He couldn't give up any friend.
In his search around the DRT room, he was almost instantly drawn to his Nobody's presence. "Roxas!" he called out, and ran up to him with an expression of both happiness and hurt. "Roxas, We get to go home!"

"Sora," he said, a little awkwardly. There was a pause. He looked at his shoes. And then at Sora again. "I ..." He trailed off again, but, wincing slightly, finally managed, "You get to go home."

At Roxas's next statement, Sora felt something like a lump form in his throat. He felt like he didn't understand. "But...you're coming back, to..."

Still, there was one last thing she could do for everyone. A token of her gratitude for their companionship. Set up before Giselle was a large table and on it was a cake. It was a large cake with thick white frosting. Across the top, in cursive writing, were the words:
And now you're beside me
And look how far we've come
So far we are so close
A wishing star was decorated across the top, colliding into a heart. Giselle's own work and her way of saying that if we wish hard enough, we will all reunite again.
She had another gift prepared too. However, these were for specific individuals. She just hoped they would stop by to see her. She had to try hard not to start crying on the cake.

Stomach growling, Harry poked his head into the room, eying that food like a starving dog eyed a bone. After all, what was a better way to forget the pain of loss than with cake?
Besides...he might never get to taste it again.
"Mind if I steal a slice?"
Reply
"I hope you like it. I made it for everyone. Especially since I didn't get to finish the cake I made before we were taken on board."
She cut a slice for Harry and put it on a plate. As she handed it to him she smiled again, "I have another gift for you as well. I hope you'll take it with you." Giselle leaned down and pulled something out of her bag. It was another scarf, woven with soft wool and at the edge of it was a heart. Inside the heart the name 'Riza' was curled in white.

Harry looked up at the mention of another gift, and was halfway through opening his mouth to say she didn't have to do that when he saw the scarf. It was incredibly corny, but if Giselle had taught him one thing in the time they had spent together, it was that corny was by no means a bad thing. His lips quirking in a small smile, Harry accepted the scarf, and promptly tossed it on roguishly.
"So, how do I look?"

It was amazing what storming a CIA ship screaming about your medical condition and how you were a lawyer with enough evidence to put the entire crew up the river for a good, long time could do for you.

She looked over her shoulder at Diego, still serenely drinking his coffee. "I can't believe we're really going home," she said happily. Home... back home, to Los Angeles. Home, without monsters and with all the food she could possibly eat. Home, with Mia.
"Sis is gonna be surprised to see us."
Reply
"I don't think she'll be too surprised, hermanita."

Phoenix knew he had to talk to them, to... damn it, he didn't want to say that to them. How could he? He was going to go home and they were going to be right there.
He started off slow. "Uh... hey."
