Y'all know who you are. Ahh that word seems so ... foreign.

Chapter One

Welcome Back

"W-we're back." Sora stuttered shyly. He looked up at Kairi, a sixteen year-old girl with garnet-red hair, and centaurea blue eyes. Sora couldn't help himself but to smile – after all, he was drenched in water from head-to-toe after that huge fall he had into the ocean, and the girl of his dreams was hovering over him, grinning at his return. He fished for something in his left pocket, and took out his key-blade chain, Oathkeeper.

It was Kairi's lucky-charm – the charm that Kairi made out of thalassa shells three years before, when they were making a raft. She told him, sailors wore them to ensure a safe voyage. Sora had used it with his keyblade so many times in the passed, hoping that the charm would give him the same luck that it did for Kairi. Kairi had given him it while they were in Traverse Town, and she made him promise to bring it back to her. Sora had kept his promise.

Kairi held out a slender, delicate hand, offering to help Sora up. She was so unmistakably happy over his return, she couldn't describe it. "You're home." she smiled warmly, and giggled slightly. Her hair had grown so much since before, and it was styled differently too.

It looked better this way, Sora thought to himself.

Sora grinned, and took her hand at once, placing the charm between them. It felt so good to be back. Life was still going to be a lot more different than what it was before any of this began, but at least he was back.

Kairi's smile slightly faded as she looked to see what was in his hand.

Could it be? her eyes widened in shock. No way... He kept it all this time!

She grinned up at him, almost speechless.

"I-I can't ... believe it!" her eyes spoke every emotion that she was feeling.

Sora simply shrugged, and used her hand to help pull him up. He slowly, and gradually let go of her hand, as if he didn't want to.

"Well, I promised didn't I?" he smiled his infamous smile.

Kairi really couldn't tell him how happy she was, she just couldn't find the right words – Kairi was, speechless.

At that instant, she hugged him at mid-waist and looked into his dazzling sapphire-blue eyes.Kairi really had no idea what she was doing.(A/N: hehe, dazzling is such an uncommon word)

"After all this time...you never forgot?" she finally asked.

Sora shook his head.

"Nope, never." he wrapped his arms around her too, hugging back. He also wasn't quite sure what he was doing. He felt her hands let go and slide up to her head like a pillow against his chest. He felt kind of awkward like this, or did it feel good? He really wasn't sure what to think. Kairi, loving him back? It felt almost impossible. But here he was, embracing her in his arms. There she was, nuzzling her head upon his chest. They were just friends though...

Sora almost forgot the others were still there.

"Ahem." Riku cleared his throat loud enough for Sora and Kairi to hear. "Do you guys need a minute..?"

Sora and Kairi let go of each other immediately. He looked down at Kairi, and smiled a just-friends grin. Kairi smiled back the same, and they both turned towards the four others.

Sora put his hands behind his head comfortably, and thought of something to change the subject.

"Ah, It's good to be home." he sighed relaxingly. "Riku's still as cheery as ever." he linked his arm around Riku's neck in a friendly stance.

"Hmph." Riku replied, and jokingly pushed Sora into the water.

Sora exaggerated his fall, and fell into the knee-deep water back first. He came back up almost instantly, just as drenched as he was when he had first came to Destiny Islands

"You look like a wet-rat." Riku tried not to laugh.

Sora mocked him and stuck out his tongue, then dove after Riku.

"Do not!" he laughed as he clung onto Riku's forearm, trying to make him fall into the water.

Riku was backing up and trying to pry Sora off his arm, when suddenly someone stuck their foot out from behind him and Riku fell into the ocean. He lifted his now-soaked head out of the water, and saw Goofy hovering over him with his classic hyuck. (A/N: spelling?? and ... is it an ocean or sea?)

"Mom's gunna freak when she sees my soaked clothes." Sora shook his head like a dog, and his abnormally spiky hair took back its original form.

"Oh, that's right." the King said in his high pitched voice. "We still need to return you three back to your homes."

"You mean..." Sora's eyes lit up with excitement. "We get to stay?!"

The large black mouse nodded at Sora.

"As long as everything stays ordinary, then yes."

"What about Goofy, Donald ... and you?" Sora asked, hoping the answer wasn't what he thought it was.

"We have to return back at Disney Castle, Sora." Donald nodded. "And see our families."

"But you can't go!" he exclaimed and he frowned sadly. "You just ... can't."

"Hey, what did we tell you Sora?" Donald put his hand on his hips, and Sora saw a common lecture coming his way. "No frowning, and no sad faces! Okay?"

"Yeah, you gotta look funny! Like us!" Goofy knelt down beside Donald, and they made a silly face at Sora.

"Just like old times." Sora laughed and picked up Donald, giving him a noogy.

"Put me down! Put me down!" Donald wailed, and swung his feathery arms in all directions.

Sora laughed and threw Donald into the air.

"Waaaaah!" Donald wailed again.

Sora motioned his arms that he would catch Donald as he came tumbling down, but quickly slipped his hands back behind him.

"No! Catch me! Catch me!!"

"Ah, too slow." he smiled, as Donald sank into the water with a splash.

"You little..." Donald silently cursed out at Sora as he emerged from a small wave he had created when he fell.

"Welp," King Mickey interrupted, before Donald tried casting any magic. "I think its time we sent you all back home."

Donald and Goofy nodded in agreement.

"Don't worry Sora, we'll try to keep in touch with ya!" Goofy patted on Sora's back sternly.

"Okay..." Sora sighed knowing that it didn't matter how much he tried, they were still going to have to leave sooner or later. "How though? The worlds are sealed already, aren't they?"

"Merlin knows lotsa' handy magic tricks." Goofy replied. "He'll find a way."

"So you could visit us then, right?" Kairi raised an eyebrow.

"Not sure... It could be a bit dangerous doing that. Merlin always takes precautions though, so he's the only one who can tell ya if we'd be able to visit or not." the King told her.

"Oh..." she nodded.

"What if we want to give you guys a letter?" Riku frowned.

"Good question." Donald agreed and turned towards the King, expecting an answer.

"Welp, I don't think you can. Not unless we give you a letter saying how you could do it." he explained. "But this could all contradict itself ... And I will only send you a note if there is an emergency."

"How do we know if the note is from you or from Donald and Goofy?" Sora wondered, and began walking towards the small dock that all the child islanders had made a while back.

"If it's from me, the King Seal will be on it o'course!" he smiled cheerfully, and pointed a gloved hand towards his chest.

The group nodded, and all followed Sora to the three boats floating in the rippling ocean.

"Hyuck! I wish we had a special seal like that, eh Donald?" Goofy nudged at Donald's side.

Donald smacked his own forehead and rolled his eyes.

"Two in a boat." Mickey told them, and took a spot in a boat with Donald. "And try to sit with someone around your weight or size."

The four others looked at each other, and chose the partner closest to their height. Sora sat with Kairi, and Goofy with Riku.

Sora pushed the boat further into the ocean so he and Kairi could get in, and they all began to paddle back to well ... civilization. The better name of it was Destiny Islands Mainland.

It was peaking up from the horizon and you could see a few sturdy docks, and some sail boats near by. The sun was setting by now, and the clear blue water sparkled the skies reflection with warm pinks and yellows.

"Welcome back, Sora." Kairi smiled sweetly at him, as they got closer and closer to the Mainland.

Sora grinned his classic smile and took a nice long look at his home.

"It all looks the same." he laughed.

"Yeah, it all is." Kairi agreed, and pulled one of her bangs from her face. "Wait till you see your room." she tried not to laugh.

"Why...? Whats so bad about it...?" he asked slowly and cautiously, still paddling at a fair speed.

Kairi giggled.

"It's still the exact same." she dragged her fingertips along the water, and smiled at him again. "Still the same laundry scattered across your floor, the same food under your unmade bed, and posters of bands that don't even appeal to you anymore. It's the exact same."

"How do you know?" he raised an eyebrow jokingly.

"I helped around your house with your mom every once in a while after everyone's memories had been restored." she explained. "She kept it the way it was, because she knew that you would come home some day."

"And that day is today." he grinned with excitement.

"Are you going to tell her the truth?" Kairi asked him anxiously.

"Uhh..." he thought aloud. "Not sure. I don't think her poor old heart could handle it."

"You should definitely ask the King." she replied calmly, and stared out at the ocean's view.

"Yeah, I will when we get on Destiny's Mainland." he agreed, seeing they weren't nearly as far as before. His eyes wandered back to Kairi, or at least her silhouette. The sun danced behind her casting a hypnotizing glow, and the waves shimmered light at her face just right. He could hardly believe that she was a Princess of Heart. Mind you, she was gorgeous so why did it surprise him?

What surprised Sora, was all these thoughts popping into his mind and the way he kept starring at her. (A/N: Is Sora checking Kairi out? Oooo, hear those fangirls squealing.)

"What?" Kairi looked back at Sora, seeing he was starring at her obliviously.

"Huh?" He shook his head, bringing himself back into reality. "Oh, nothing."

Why'd you stop looking at her?

Shut up Roxas. I don't know what I was doing in the first place.

Well, I was enjoying it.

Just be quiet.

"We're heeere." Riku laughed as their boats slowly approached the dock.

Sora breathed in deeply, and smiled.

"It's good to be back."
