Chapter 1

Kairi sat on the beach, looking out at the sea. She had a faraway look on he face. You could tell at first glance what she was thinking about: Sora. It was like a foreign word, she hadn't seen him in over two years.

Flashback

"Kairi, remember what you said? I'll always be with you too! I'll come back to you, I promise!"

"I know you will!

End Flashback

'He promised he would come back. He promised,' thought Kairi.

She heard soft footsteps and turned to see Selphie walking towards her.

"Hi Kairi," Selphie said softly. Kairi turned to face the ocean again. "Do you really think he is coming back? I mean it's been two years."

"He will come back, he promised," Kairi said, never taking her eyes off of the ocean.

"Kairi, nobody on the island thinks he's coming back. Not even Riku."

Riku had escaped from Kingdom Hearts the previous year along with King Mickey, whom is safely back at Disney Castle.

"Well let them believe what they want, he will come back."

Selphie sighed.

"Kairi, I really don't like to see you in this depression. I really think you should move on. Please! For the sake of everyone, Riku especially."

Kairi raised her eyebrows at the sound of this.

"Kairi how long have you been blind? Riku likes you! As more then a friend! And I really think you two have some potential."

"Too bad for Riku. I don't return those feelings. My heart belongs to Sora and I will keep waiting until he comes back, which he will."

Selphie sighed again.

"Can I at least walk you home? It's getting dark."

"Fine," Kairi said reluctantly, letting Selphie lead her away from the beach.

On the other side of the island, Riku watched the two girls has the headed home. Riku sighed. He knew Kairi was missing Sora. If he could, Riku would bring Sora to her. But he couldn't. Riku had no idea where the keyblade master was. He didn't even know how he escaped Kingdom Hearts. But he was here and Sora wasn't.

Riku got up and walked to the secret place. The little cave was covered with drawling from the various kids on the island. His eyes landed on one in particular. The drawling Sora had made of him and Kairi sharing the Papou fruit. Riku wished it could be him in that drawling, because he loved Kairi with all his heart. Even though he knew she would never return those feelings. His icy blue eyes suddenlt shone with hate.

"Dammit Sora! Why did you promise her? I could have her if it weren't for that promise!" Riku shouted angirly. But he knew it was no use. Sora couldn't here him. So Riku left the little cave and headed home.
