Through the Sea

by khmidorinohibe

"Kairi" At least I know the meaning of my name and how it, just like the sky, is connected to everyone. The secrets it holds in the abyss. The way it reflects everything to reveal their true selves. The home it gives to all creatures. How it can have different forms. How it can help save others.

The Sea...what a vast body of water that could go on miles and miles with no end.

The Sea...where the sky and sun reflect its bright colors against the mirrors.

The Sea...in which provides a home to those creatures in the water.

The Sea...in which holds pureness and life.

The Sea...in which secrets are held in the deep abyss.

The Sea...in which I was named after.

It's funny really. When I awoke on that strange island that became my home I only remembered my name. Nothing more. But the funny part is that I was carried by the sea to the shore, where my good friend found me. When the boy explained that he found me washed up on the shore from the "meteor shower" my adopted parents named me by what I was already named:

"Kairi!"

I turned to see the same boy who first found me. The boy who always had a smile. The boy who always went with the Wind. "Hey, Sora."

"Let's go to the small island together!"As usual, his energy is so lively even in the mornings. "Sure."

While Sora rowed-I offered but he politely declined- I stared at my reflection. My blue eyes- Princess Blue is what my adoptive mother would say- almost blended well with the natural reflection of the blue sky as my red hair contrasted.

"About time you two got here. I was beginning to think that I would start by myself." Another boy, whom I've gotten close too as well, greeted us as soon as we came in sight. He was carrying a medium size log then tossed it to Sora, who fell on the sudden impact.

"Let's get started."

I also find it funny that his name contradicts what he looks like. With platinum hair and aquamarine eyes, he's the one on Land trying to fly up to the sky and cross the Sea.

"Hey, Riku, " I called as I brought the white tarp. "Do you think we'll make it off the island?"

"Of course! We promised that once we finish the raft, we can go out and find another world."

"That's not what I meant." This time he looked at quizzically. "I meant that, do you think we would be able to survive long enough until we reached another world." He didn't say anything but looked at the materials needed for the journey ahead of us.

"I'm sure of it."He looked at me with an assuring smile. "After all, you came here."

I smiled.

"You're right."
