"…Say Goodbye, to the World you thought You lived in. Take a bow, play the part of a lonely, lonely heart.
Say Goodbye to the world You thought You lived in…"
Seagulls cawed, and ocean waves hit the shore softly when Ebsolon began to come to. Laying on her stomach, a few yards away from the waters edge, Ebsolon pushed herself up from the sand using her forearms, coughing slightly to get the salt water taste out of her mouth. She lifted her head to examine her surroundings.
She was on an Island, that much was certain, large palm trees scattered across the landscape, and houses cluttered together along dirt pathways.
Ebsolon sighed, "I was hoping this was the Startide Islands." Speaking softly, she got to her feet and turned to the right, a boy slightly younger than her staring at her, a goofy smile on his face.
Ebsolon cried out in shock, and fell backwards to the sand again, "Oh Tutela, It's a human! I'm in a human world!" Her conscious screamed.
"Hey there!" He smiled, offering a hand to help her up.
Cautiously, she took it and stood in front of him, taking this moment she gave him a look over; spiky brown hair, with sky blue eyes. He wore a light blue tee shirt with a white rim on the neck and sleeves. Dark blue shorts came to his knees, and a belt with a wooden sword rested over his waist.
"I'm Sora." The boy said, "Are you new around here? I haven't seen you before."
"Ah… What?" Ebsolon spat out.
"Where are you from?" Sora asked.
Ebsolon bit her lip, "Think fast Eb. If I tell this kid the truth he'll think I'm off my rocker." She thought to herself.
She shook her head in response.
"You… don't know?" Came a voice from behind Sora.
Sora turned and Ebsolon peeked around his figure.
A girl, the same age as Sora, with short mahogany colored hair walked up beside him. She wore a pale purple blouse, which tied around the back of her neck. Her skirt was a deep purple with imprinted floral designs around the hem of the bottom.
"I… I guess not." Ebsolon shrugged.
Sora and the girl exchanged glances, "Well… Uh, This is Kairi. A friend of mine." The girl gave a gentle smile and waved, "Nice to meet you- um… What's you're name?" She asked.
Ebsolon looked down at her shoes then sighed, looking back up at the two humans, "Ebsolon."
"Alright well, Nice to meet you Ebsolon!" Sora grinned, "Hey, mind if I call you 'Eb' for short?" He asked.
"Whichever you prefer." Ebsolon responded, "It's one of my preferred nicknames anyway." She thought to herself.
"Ha ha, Alright! Hey, Where's Riku?" Sora asked Kairi.
She shrugged, "He'll get here when he get's here…"
Ebsolon crossed her arms and leaned forward then backwards, "Ah, speaking of which…" She leaned forward again, "Where is 'here'?"
"The Destiny Islands." Another voice game from behind Sora and Kairi.
This time, a slightly older boy with shoulder length silver hair came from a set of stairs leading up to the village. A yellow vest with a black rim fitted on his chest. He wore navy blue pants that had several pockets on them, and covered his shoes.
"Oh, Hey Riku." Sora laughed, "'bout time you decided to join us! What took you?"
"Tidus and Wakka." Riku replied, walking up to the group. He crossed his arms and examined Ebsolon.
"This is Ebsolon." Sora introduced. Riku gave a short wave, and Ebsolon nodded slightly.
"So you don't know where you're from, huh?" He asked.
"It would seem that way, yes." She nodded.
"Well… Why don't you stay with me at the mansion Eb? I mean, you don't have anywhere else to go… Right?" Kairi suggested.
"Well… yes, but… But I don't wish to burden you." Ebsolon said, averting her eyes.
"Burden-? Oh, that's silly, I don't mind! And the mayors a really nice guy! C'mon." Kairi waved an arm motioning Ebsolon to follow her.
Figuring that she would be fighting a loosing battle, Ebsolon sighed and followed Kairi into the town.
"See you guys later!" Kairi called back.
"So… Both Eb and Kairi don't remember where they're from… Kinda weird huh?" Sora asked Riku.
"It's not coincidence, Sora. Something's going on here." Riku responded, "And we'll find out what sooner or later."
"…I tried to live alone, but lonely is so lonely alone. So Human as I am, I had to give up my defenses.
So I smiled and tried to mean it. To let myself let go…"
