Moana - Warrior's Journey

Chapter 48: The Ultimate Return (Finale)

"Look, folks," Moana said as she stood in front of Kapu'uila to help him avoid the deadly glare. "Please forgive him. He also had a horrible past, just like you guys did."

"She's right," Maui said. "So please, forgive him. He did help you guys turn you guys back into your true selves after all."

Moana and Maui cleared the way for Kapu'uila to give them an official apology. He cleared his throat and said, "Look, what I did was... wrong... I have no excuse... I'm very, really sorry..."

While everyone stayed silent, Harokau approached to him. He let out his hand and said, "I forgive you, partner. And I'm sorry for betraying you. I got carried away with my followers away and... I'm sorry, brother." They both shook hands and exchanged hugs. And then Motonui, Pumanu, Waiata, and Mo'ewai walked up to him.

"Maybe we should've been more open-minded towards you," Pumanu said.

"I'm sorry for misunderstanding you," Waiata apologized.

"We all are," Mo'ewai said. 

"Forgive us?" Motonui asked.

"If you'll forgive me," Kapu'uila said. 

"Of course, we will," Motonui, Pumanu, Waiata, and Mo'ewai said at the same time. 

As the ultimate five exchanged apologies and forgiveness with Kapu'uila, more and more did the same. Just then, five women who looked like Shamen walked up to Moana and Maui. "Moana and Maui," the main woman said. "My name is Puhi and I was the wisp who guided you, along with the other women here, who were also wisps."

"Ah, thank you for guiding us," Moana thanked.

"Now, we just need to find you and the others a new home," Maui said.

"I just do not where," Puhi said.

"You guys are all welcome at my island, Motunui," Moana said.

"I heard my name, what's happening?" Motonui asked as she came to Moana.

"MoTUnui is our island name," Maui explained.

"Wow, I must belong to that island," Motonui said. 

"You guys are all welcome to join us at our island," Moana said. "But... the boat..."

"I'm so sorry, I must've destroyed it," Kapu'uila said. "But allow me..." he gestured and gathered all the flotsams and rebuilt the boat.

"Oh, thank you, thank you so much!" Moana said as she hugged him tightly. "Come on, everyone! You are all welcome to join my island!" Everyone cheered and followed after her. 

"How did you do that?" Maui asked.

"Well, helping out in any way is my special power," Kapu'uila said. 

"I wish I had that," Maui said.

"Oh, you're good just the way you are," Kapu'uila said and they both got on the boat.

"Everyone on board?!" Moana announced.

"Yeah!" Everyone answered delightfully. 

"All right! Next stop, Motunui!" Moana announced and sailed off.

********

While Sina and Tui were harvesting fruits, vegetables, and other herbs, Sina saw a giant boat coming towards Motunui. SH=he gasped and ran towards the beach. Tui saw where Sina was running to, and he also noticed a giant boat coming towards Motunui and he knew exactly who that was. 

Moana was sailing towards Motunui along with Maui, Pua, Heihei, and sixty-seven people. As soon as she arrived, Moana ran to her parents to give them a big hug. "Mom! Dad!"

"Moana!" Her parents also ran to greet her. "Oh, Moana, happy late 17th birthday!" "Welcome back, my precious daughter!" Her parents said two different things but Moana was able to hear everything that they both said. 

"Mom, dad..." Moana started slowly. "I may have turned into a demigoddess..." She finished her sentence as she showed her magical tattoo, created a ball of water and sprayed it to the flowers behind her, and touched the withered flower and revived it back again. "There's much more for... close combat..." Moana nervously chuckled once.

Tui also proudly chuckled once and said, "It suits you."

"She's back! Chief Moana!" Everyone cheered as they ran towards Moana to greet her, and then Maui, and then sixty-seven new citizens. Puhi and four other Shamen have become fortune-tellers of the village.  

********

The town became much bigger as they built more houses, and everyone was given their tasks. Everything was going fine just the way Moana had expected until this happened.

"Chief? You have a moment?" Maui asked as he peeked inside the hut.

"What is it?" Moana asked as she approached him.

"I have some private business, and I'd like to meet you at our spot," Maui said. 

Moana agreed, "All right, let's go." It was the wood where they spent their last moment before they started their journey. They stood at the edge of the cliff at the end of the woods where the sunset shined bright orange for the... lovely atmosphere. 

"Chief... I've been wanting to say this during our journey," he said and then he bent down on one knee and presented a pearl. Moana gasped and covered her mouth. Some tears started to drip from her eyes. "Happy late birthday... and... will you... marry me...?" He asked. Moana speechlessly nodded. Moana then hugged him tight and kissed him passionately.

********

Usually, when people get married at Motunui, they would have traditional weddings, but this time, Moana and Maui had a wedding in freestyle. Everyone ate, drank, sang, played, and danced all day. Sure, they all danced the traditional dances and sang traditional songs because they did not have new ones yet, but everyone had a fun time, and that's all that mattered. 

"I think you made this island more enjoyable than any other ancestors did," Maui said. "And you helped not only people on your island, but you also welcomed other people to become better farmers, wayfinders, and now it's the matter of time to turn them into warriors."

"I intend to~" Moana replied in a singsong voice. 

"What a sly chief you are," Maui said with a sly smirk.

"But I am the good one," Moana said as she grabbed his face. 

"You are," Maui muffled as he replied. Then they both exchanged a warm, soothing kiss. 

A/N: Well, this is it... the final chapter... This was the most difficult fanfic I've ever worked on. I would like to thank all of you for being patient with me to the end. I started this my senior year in high school and now I'm in my junior year in University. Boy the time goes so fast...

Even though I had a really hard time writing this fanfic, I taught myself so much and I think my imagination has gotten better. This also taught me that creativity takes time and how it is SO DIFFICULT to come up with characters and stories. I admire writers at Disney for writing so many good stories and animators making a story come to life.

I will start working on new fanfics now! Stay tuned for new fanfics when I feel that it's enjoyable enough to be published on Wattpad! If you are also a Kirby fan, that is still continuing, and there are other Disney fanfics you'll love like Mulan one and Ratatouille one! I have Harry Potter one-shots and We Bare Bears fanfics! If you are interested, there are also my one shot non-canon ship fanfic and Animal Crossing fanfic.

I have also published Brave, Wreck-it Ralph, and Lilo & Stitch fanfic so please check that out if you love those movies!

Again, thank you all for sticking with me to the end.
