{{nihongo|'''"A New Day is Dawning"'''|ステキな仲間たち|Suteki na Nakama-tachi|lit. "Wonderful Companions"}} is the final song mission played in [[Atlantica]] in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. It reflects the new beginning of harmony between the surface world and Atlantica. It celebrates the union of Princess [[Ariel]], a mermaid, and [[Prince Eric]], a human.

This song is available after [[Sora]] obtains [[Thundaga]] from the [[Groundshaker]] in the [[Pride Lands]] and returns and talks to [[Sebastian]]. In the mission, Sora must be able to earn at least 30,000 points to be able to pass and end the story. After the cutscene, Sora obtains an [[Orichalcum+]] and a [[Blizzard]] spell upgrade.
