Chapter One
Along the beach Sora walked, lost in thought about the island. This was the place where Kairi and he, with Riku grew up. It held so many memories and wonderful laughing times. He never wanted life to end. It was perfect this way.
Kairi walked a bit behind Sora. They had decided to both go for a walk, but it turned out to be a one person thing. Kairi looked into the distance where she came from. Out there, somewhere. She wanted so bad to find out her past, but she wouldn't ever, so it didn't bother her much. It was just her deepest, most desired wish, usually unattainable by most people.
Sora walked along with his shoes off, wading knee-deep into the water. It was cooling and soothed him. Sora heard an animal rustle in the bushes up the sand bank and turned towards them. High on the bank, something caught his eye. A piece of metal glittered. There was never any trash on it, so it made him wonder what it could be.
Abruptly, he changed course and walked to it.
"Sora? What it is?" Kairi followed.
"I…I don't know. I saw something glitter and I'm checking it out," he said as he turned to her. He waited for her and together went to investigate. Sora reached it first and pulled out a fistful of sand and a heart on a chain. It was a locket.
"It's a locket."
Kairi got all excited since she understood the importance of lockets. Sora opened it and a few drops of water fell out. There were two pictures in it, and both were moldy looking. They weren't very clean. Sora studied them. There was a picture of a couple, a woman and a man wrapping their arms around each other. And the other picture was of a girl and boy.
But… they all looked familiar. Like someone he knew. Sora quickly turned to Kairi and studied her face.
"What?" Kairi inquired.
Sora turned back to the pictures. "Look at these." He gave the locket to her. She looked at them and asked what was so great about them. As she was giving it back, she suddenly gasped and kept it.
"Hold on… There's something about this locket. It is sad. I've seen it before. But, where?" Kairi put the locket on and Sora noticed it was shaped exactly for her. The chain was exactly the correct length, and the heart fit exactly where it looks best.
"Kairi, it- its perfect for you. Like, it was made for you." Kairi turned to the ocean and felt a longing to be in it suddenly. She felt that two people were watching her, and suddenly felt sad. What was it? Was it the locket?

Kairi stood in her room, next to the closet. She tore down all her old stuff and groped for a bag. In this bag, she found a pair of clothes fit for a two year old. She studied them closely. These were the clothes she had when she drifted ashore ontoDestiny Island at two years of age. No one was with her, and she didn't remember much. A young boy found her, and she was raised here. All she knew was at one time, she made many people happy. But, these people were gone now. And she knew who were in the locket now.
"There is a story…My story. I won't ever know it, but what is it?" Kairi laid on her bed and fell asleep crying, clinging onto her clothes.
A/N: Chapters will be longer than this...I promise! Now, I want at least three reviews to make me keep going! Enjoy!
