A/N: Title doesn't make sense, does it? It will in time, just read.

She was here. Finally, after years of wishing, hoping, crying, and wondering why, she was finally here, finally on another world, finally on Destiny Islands. The salty sea air blew across her face as she squinted up at the sky of blue topaz.
Sky. Sora was the sky, innocent and naïve and free, yet apt to emotional change, what with storms of anger over injustice. She laughed; what a strange way to describe the sky. But hey, that was Sora for you; always there to help the weak. Se smiled weakly, and hoped with all her heart that he'd be happy. Pale fingers worked their way through white sand, the closest thing to earth a beach had.
Earth. Riku was the earth, steady and stable and loyal to those he cared about. She didn't care that he'd once sided with darkness; everyone had their faults. But if Riku was earth, could she crack a joke about fault lines? She scrunched up her nose as she weakly sat up; what a nasty thing to joke about! She swore she'd never make that joke as she squinted at the cobalt sea creeping up the coastline.
Sea. Kairi was the sea, calm and clear and dangerous, even though she didn't know how one with no darkness in her heart could be dangerous. Maybe it's because of her purity that she was so dangerous? She shook her head, trying to get rid of her strange thoughts. How confusing! Maybe she should just focus on the warm sun above her.
Sun. She was the sun, wasn't she? She laughed; she wasn't warm or cheery, at least, not all the time. Could she really be responsible for bringing light and warmth and life to others? She had no idea, for her story hadn't started, and as such, her role was still unclear. As she started to maneuver herself to a standing position, her hand brushed against something large and round and smooth, too smooth to be a pebble in the sand. She paused, and turned to her hand, blinking. Under her hand was a solitary pearl what had dislodged itself from its oyster host somehow.
…Pearl…
She smiled. There was only one pearl in the story, and all she wanted was to see this pearl one more time. She pocketed the treasure as she made her way to the worn dock, where a solitary boat was tied, as though waiting for her to finally arrive.
"This will remind me…until we meet again." And so her story began.

A/N: This was just a random, emo oneshot. I don't really plan on going any further, but I thought it'd be interesting to write. Yeah, that's Sora, Riku, and Kairi from Kingdom Hearts. The title has the basic meaning of a different person's name, and 'Sun' and 'Pearl'…well, I'm not telling you who they are. They're not in the series; they're just add-ins. Please, I…don't ask me to write more, because honestly, this was…a bit emotional for me to write…I didn't cry, but…this is kinda close to me now. So, please…just…review, or something. Thank you for reading.
