Chapter 1

It seemed like just a normal day on Destiny Island; the sky was sparkling with the bright rays of the sun and the sound of crashing waves emitting from the shores. There was not much to do on this little part of paradise, yet for Sora, who was relaxing on the sea shores, life couldn't get any better.

"Oh yeah!" exclaimed Sora.

"Nothing like a day of relaxing at the beach after a term of hard work and exams."

Sora is 16 years old and has gravity defying hair. His eyes are as blue as the ocean he keeps staring at and has a smile that would make even the world's grumpiest man feel happy. Sora was quite a hunk according to the ladies at his high school, but even though he is popular, Sora is actually not all that cheerful at times.

"Hey Sora, I knew you'd be lazing around here."

A Familiar voice called out from above Sora. Sora looked up, grazing his hair in the sand to look at his wise-ass best friend.

"Hey Riku, why are you here?" Sora asked with a confused look on his face and a head full of sand.

"Oh I'm sorry; I thought this beach was open to the public, unless I missed the sign saying "Sora's Beach". But if it's like that then I'll just go back home." said Riku and turned around to walk away.

Sora jumped up and ran after him, wanting to hang out, seeing as he has nothing better to do at the moment.

"Man, what are we gonna do this summer? I can't bear to sit at home doing nothing!" said Sora.

"Well, you got the beach. You could always hang around there and probably pick up chicks."

"No thanks. I don't think I'm in the mood for another girl. Besides, they only wanna go out with me to make other people jealous. Remember that Xion girl from last year? She went out with me for like a month and as soon as she got Roxas's attention...she bailed on me."

"Of course I remember. You wouldn't stop yapping about it for weeks. I can still hear the cries when I go to sleep." Sora punched Riku on the arm at that comment.

"Owww, when did you get so rough? I was only joking!" Riku said while rubbing his sore arm.

"Haha I know, and how in the world did that light punch hurt? Are you skipping out on the gym?"

Riku scratched his nose like a nervous person would before answering: "Maybe, girls can keep a guy busy...it's a full time job!"

Sora suddenly got a spark in his mind. His eyes widened to his idea as he thought it through.

"I got it! I'll just get a job! There must be a few jobs in this town. That ought to keep me busy, and I can make some munny in the process!"

"Haha finally you came up with an idea that isn't half bad." Riku smirked at his buddy as they arrived at his house.

"Well, guess this is my stop. You should check the newspapers for any job openings. You might find one that's fun for you." said Riku as he walked into his yard and raced up to his porch.

"Mmmm...Maybe, if I'm lucky. See ya later Riku. Tell your sister I said "hi"." He waved his friend goodbye before running home to check the papers for any openings that might be interesting to him.

Ten minutes of running caused Sora to stop and take a breather, luckily he was already at his house's yard, slugging his way across the pathway leading up to the door. Sora pushed the door open slowly as a result of the lack of energy. His feet didn't even completely rise off from the wooden floor as he enters the kitchen and set his sights on the fridge.

He lugs the fridge door open and immediately grabs a bottle of cool, refreshing water out and jugs it all down in a single go. After regaining his breath he started to look around his well-furnished house for the newspaper he picked up this morning.

Sora lived in a two-story house that looked quite neat. It had an open kitchen connected to the TV room. Sora loved it because it was quick to get snacks during a montage of his favorite shows that he watched on the UHDTV. Riku loved to come over and play call of duty on that baby. There was also a dining room that hasn't been used in quite a long time, yet no dust has built up. Sora isn't like any teenager who never cleans up after themselves, at least once a week he would fix the place up.

Upstairs were all the bedrooms and a bathroom, Sora had his own personal bathroom of course for those nights when you wake up with a huge emergency. The only other bedroom in the house was the master bedroom that had a window which looked out over the ocean sunset. Sora never sleeps there; he actually keeps the door of that room closed.

In the kitchen, Sora found the latest paper under the fruit bowl on the table that was in the center of the room. He personally hated the newspapers because he could never hold them right. Parts of it would always fall out and the pages were too big for him that it was annoying. So instead of reading the paper in mid-air, Sora placed it down neatly on the table and started looking for any signs of job openings.

Quite a few interesting things came up, other than the prices on cool new hoodies that Sora loved. There were quite a few jobs open but most of them needed adults who were experienced. Sora didn't quite see himself as a waiter, that would only give girls another opportunity to stare at him, and the guys could make fun of him. Sora wanted a job where he wasn't needed to be so out in the open, where he could work in peace and not worry about customers wanting to get into his pants.

Sora scanned through the list of jobs before his eyes caught the sight of a strange kind of work. It seemed like a family is looking for a new butler. Sora thought about it for a minute before continuing down the list. He couldn't find anything suitable for him so he looked at the ad for the butler position again. He just imagined himself with combed hair, in a black and white suit serving a tray to fat noblemen.

Sora shook his head to get that image out of his head and tried thinking of something else, but the idea of how good he looks in a suit made him curious. He quickly located the ad and got the number off from the details. He walked up to the phone in the living room with a questionable look on his face. He became hesitant when he picked up the phone to dial the number. As the phone started to ring, Sora got shy and nervous, not knowing what to expect.

"Hello?" said a gentle voice coming from the other side of the phone.

"Oh uhm, hello...I'm calling about the butler position you advertised in the paper. I was wondering if it was still available." Asked Sora.

"Oh yes, thank goodness someone called about that! The position is still open if you'd like to apply." Sora made out that it was a woman talking due to the sound of her voice. He could hear other noises in the background as well.

"I would like to try it if you would have me." Said Sora, feeling less nervous from talking over the phone.

"Yes of course. Come by tomorrow at 10:30 and we will discuss it. Our address is 12 Fate Avenue on the hill of the island." Sora quickly grabbed a pen and paper from a small stack of note papers close to the phone for exactly such occasions.

"Thank you very much. See you then!" The woman said her goodbyes as well and hung up in quite a hurry. To Sora she sounded a bit busy, yet quite organized seeing as she placed him on a schedule.

Sora looked at the small paper where the address was written on and wondered what lies in store for him at this new job. He stuck the note onto the fridge so that he would stare straight into it every time he would get a snack.

Sora is mindless to what awaits him at the house and to what adventures lies before him.
