"No thanks.. I'm too tired. I think we both need a break" Sora pat his best friend on his back, and watched as Kairi stood up.
"Sora's right. You two were having fights all day, it's about time we all head inside and get some rest" The redhead said, and smoothed down her hair as a breeze blew it around. The waves crashed against the dock, and spent a light spray of water against their skin.
Sora stood up with a smile. "I'm going to get some food too. I'm starving" The thin boy pat his stomach.
Riku stood up as well along with his friends, his silver hair blew gently against his face. "Dinner was only an hour ago and you're already starving. I swear, your stomach is a bottomless pit" He ruffled the boys wild brown hair, and started walking off the dock to the sand.
The 17 year old boy walked along the soft sand, leaving Sora and Kairi to walk back to their own shacks together. The trio didn't want to go back to the town for the night, and felt like spending the night on the island. The sun had gone down by the time Riku made it back to his room, and he flopped down onto his bed, pulling his shirt off as he did so.
"Man.." He said to himself as he rolled over and looked out of his window, seeing off into the jungle area where he and his friends have had many adventures when they were younger. The jungle was quiet, and Riku could hear the oceans waves from his window, it made him feel at peace.
Riku had started dozing off, that was, until he saw some movements in the forest. He figured it was just some wildlife of sorts, but his curious mind kept his from looking away. The boy strained his eyes trying to see the figure, it was moving around quickly, darting in and out of trees. The figure ran past a more lit part of the outer forest, and that's when Riku finally realized it was a person, a female. He was craning his neck out the window, practically hanging out of it, trying to figure out who it was. He knew it wasn't Kairi, the person had longer hair than her, longer hair than most of the girls in the area. Before Riku could even think about leaving his shack to go follow her, the figure had disappeared into the jungle, leaving Riku confused and lost in his own thoughts. Once again, all he could hear was the sound of the ocean waves, and all he could see was the dark, still jungle. Riku laid back, his silver hair flaired out on his pillow as he stared up at his ceiling, his curiousity getting the best of him. He couldn't decide whether he wanted to go out and search, or if he should wait until the next day and tell Sora and Kairi about his little discovery. Was it someone from the town? Maybe someone from another world? Curse his curious mind. Riku closed his eyes, and after much annoyance, fell asleep and woke up to the bright sun shining down on his fair skin.
"Hey Riku! Get up, lazy!" Kairi yelled from outside, Sora was beside her.
"Come on, we're going swimming today! Hurry up!" Sora had started looking around for a coconut to throw in the window, when Riku looked out, rubbing his eyes. "I'll be down in a few minutes. I've got something to tell you guys" He hopped out of bed, and lazily threw on clean clothes.
As Riku made his way out of his shack, Sora and Kairi were watching a hermit crab walk along the sand. Riku towered over his two younger friends, watching as the hermit crab made his way back into the ocean. Riku cast a dark shadow on the sand in front of his friends.
"So, what was it you wanted to tell us?" Sora said, he got up and brushed some sand off his clothes.
Riku rubbed the back of his neck. "Well.. last night I saw something in the jungle. I think it was a person.. looked like a girl. She had really long hair"
Kairi looked up at him. "Really? A lot of the girls around here have short hair. Maybe she's from a different world?"
Sora smiled. "We should go find her~! Maybe she's from Agrabah.. or Halloween Town!" Sora looked excited, maybe it was one of his friends from those worlds.
Kairi chuckled at how ecstatic Sora was about all this. "I say we should go look. Are you up for it, Riku?"
Riku shrugged, but inside, he was. "I guess so. I just hope she's not a wanted criminal or something"
Sora didn't hear what Riku said, and neither did Kairi, do to the fact that Sora was blabbering on and on about going on their adventure, and that they should wait until night to go search.
Riku looked up at the bright sun, and shielded his eyes from it's intense rays. He knew that night would probably either turn out to be a total bust, or quite interesting.
