Sora.
It was cold. Too cold. And Sora felt alone. Kairi was gone again. And Riku…Well, he was still missing. Without them, Sora didn't feel complete. Even with Goofy and Donald beside him, nothing felt right anymore.
"Garwsh Sora, you look like you need cheering up!"
Sora sent Goofy a smile, perhaps missing a little too much emotion. But Sora was too tired to care. He had too much on his mind. Goofy and Donald were great friends of his, and they'd been through a lot together. But, it just wasn't the same as Riku and Kairi. He missed them. A lot. Maybe sometimes too much. Though he knew he'd find them again someday. At least, he hoped he would. And that's what Goofy and Donald were there for. They knew what Sora wanted, and they were happy to help him. But did they really know what Sora wanted most?
"Sora...Sora? SORA!!"
He turned round lazily to face Donald. There was an angry expression upon Donald's face, but he knew it wouldn't last.
"What's up, Donald?"
"Are we gonna stay here all night, or are we actually going to get something done?"
Sora smiled. "Here sounds good!"
Donald frowned. "Riku and Kairi aren't gonna find themselves, you know! And the heartless…"
Sora felt a stab of pain. Riku. How he longed to see Riku again. And Kairi. He missed her a lot too. Losing a friend was bad enough, but not being able to find them again felt even worse.
"…Yeah. Sorry, Donald. Goofy. Let's go. This keyblade wasn't made to be left on the sidelines!"
And with one fell swoop Sora was already running down the path, leaving Donald, Goofy and the glowing embers of the campfire lost in the distance.
