I'm coming back; I'll always be with you…
Kairi, now age 15, sat on the beach in Destiny Islands. It's been a year since she last saw Sora. And the last time she saw him, was near Kingdom Hearts, the door to the light.
But how was Riku? What happened to him? How come she can't see him here, on the island?
And…how was Sora? What happened to him? Is he fine? Did he find Riku?
So many questions left unanswered. She feels so miserable sometimes. All she wants to do is see them again.
……………………………………………………………………………………………
Kairi was walking in the secret place. It's a bit more smaller now, since she has grown already. But that won't stop her from going there. That place was…her most treasured memories. She won't let it disappear. She wants to keep it there forever. Till the day she meets them again and after that, this place will still be kept in her mind, forever.
And then there was the door at the end of the place. She knew, it was the door to the other worlds. But it couldn't open. And it's fine…it didn't have to open. Somehow, she knew that somehow and someday they will come back. No doubt they will.

But sometimes she wanted to see them again. Even though she knew she had to believe in light, sometimes she felt there was darkness in her heart that was urging her to believe in darkness too.
But she didn't want to. But the darkness keeps on urging her over and over again. Sometimes she would surrender herself to the darkness.
But suddenly, it just stops. The darkness goes away. She didn't know why.
And then she remembered. "No matter where you go, I'll always be with you." Those were the words she said to Sora that day.
"Kairi! I'll come back!" Sora shouted out. How can she forget?
"I know you will!" Was what she replied.
And then, it all made sense. Why the darkness never came to her, was because Sora was always with her in the beginning. Her best friend, or part of her heart, was with her. Part of Sora's heart was with her right on the very first day they met.
After all that, she was happy. She no longer needed to be worried if Sora wasn't with her, yet. He would one day come back, to fill that empty heart of his once again.
But what if, part of her heart was with him? Then that means…they are always chained together, and that meant…she would never have to lose him.
"I'll be waiting for you, Sora. Don't worry; you're always with me, as I am with you."

"I can feel you Kairi. I'll come back, I promise. I will come back."
He ran to Donald and Goofy who were waiting for him to come on their search for the king and Riku.
