The sun illuminated the tranquil sea, spreading a white shimmer of light throughout the island, pouring in more and more light as it rose. Sunrise had always been the most peaceful time on the island, not necessarily the fun or prettiest, but defiantly the most relaxing. It had been a week since the boys returned to the island, Sora and Riku, my best friends in the whole of the universe, and always will be. Who am I you ask?
I'm Kairi. Just Kairi.
The wooden crafted pier creaked as I lay back, shuffling to get comfortable. The sky was now a crystal clear blue, merging itself with the ocean.
"Morning, Kairi!" A gentle voice snapped me out of my thoughts. Scurrying to an upright position, I felt a smile emerge on my face.
"Morning Sora" Sora never was one for morning's, or anytime of the day for that matter, that's what made him so different I suppose, that and his heart. A heart filled with so much light and joy, it outshone most peoples; it was not hard to see why the key blade had entrusted him to be its master.
"What are you doing up so early?" I enquired, still staring at the sea.
"Could say the same thing about you" Was his best reply, yawning he slumped down beside me, I couldn't stop myself from giggling, I told you he wasn't a morning person.
"Touché"
"Hey guys!" Came an overly cheery voice, from behind, Riku as always was up early, fresh and willing to go in the morning, always up for an adventure. Well one that wouldn't end up with him giving in to the dark side.
"Hey Riku" I replied, taking in his greeting smile. Everything was perfect know, the three of us together again, at last. We all sat in silence for a few minutes, watching the sunrise until a question I tended to avoid broke the silence.
"So guys…what exactly do we do now?" Sora asked as I turned my head avoiding making eye contact, I knew Sora wanted to get back out there and visit more worlds, save civilisations and stuff, but then what would happen to us, the perfect life we lived before Organisation XIII and Maleficent came and screwed everything up.
In a way the sights and places I have seen, have been worth the struggle, the few people I have met have alone been so interesting, What it would be like to be Sora and have seen all those places…it would have been marvellous.
"I-I don't know…" I stammered, and then something weird, compelling yet wonderful happened. The waves were making music, along with the swaying trees in different pitches all in tune, and Riku opened his mouth…
Riku- As you go through life you'll see
There is so much that we
Don't understand
And the only thing we know
Is things don't always go
The way we planned
But you'll see every day
That we'll never turn away
When it seems all your dreams come undone
We will stand by your side
Filled with hope and filled with pride
We are more than we are
We are one
The music was flowing, echoing throughout the entire island, we had made our way across the beach gliding to the music. I walked up towards the sea, staring at the horizon as the wind hit my face sending percussion across the beach.
Kairi- If there's so much I must be
Can I still just be me
The way I am?
Can I trust in my own heart
Or am I just one part
Of some big plan?
Sora- Even those who are gone
Are with us as we go on
Your journey has only begun
Tears of pain, tears of joy
One thing nothing can destroy
Is our pride, deep inside
We are one
All- We are one, you and I
We are like the earth and sky
One family under the sun
All the wisdom to lead
All the courage that you need
You will find when you see
We are one
We stood there in silence for several minutes as the percussion dimmed, leaving us in the middle of the beach wondering what just happened. I felt the need to break the silence, but what was I supposed to say, Hey that was awesome we should make our own band? Something strange had just happened although it was fairly likeable; it meant something was wrong somewhere and the best person to ask about it would be King Mickey, leaving us on another action packed adventure, great.
"Umm… I-I have a slight feeling, that something was wrong with that picture." I stammered walking over to the two rigid teens.
"Y-yeah, Eeeh…maybe we should ask someone about it?" Riku replied emerging back into reality.
"Yeah, I think its time for another trip to Disney castle, if it's happened to us its probable that it's happening to everybody" Sora added, once again yielding his key blade.
"Guys, what kind of Dark creature, destroys there victims by making them sing?" I blurted out trying to get my head around the quiet amusing fact.
"One that hasn't seen organisation XIII, Maleficent, or heard of us" Sora chuckled, making his way towards the islands keyhole. Before stopping abruptly in front of us, making me and Riku nearly crash into him, as he turned around I noticed a strange glint in his eye, one that I had seen before, but where?
"Um…Guys, I don't think that its such a good idea if all of us go, if something is happening out there, I don't want you guys getting hurt because of me, I.."
"No way, no way you're leaving me on this island again, There's no…"Riku cut me off.
"Kairi…Calm… Sora I understand what you're saying but me and Kairi have our own key blades now, we can defend ourselves…Besides I got overtaken by the dark side, and overcame it…I know al their tricks, and Kairi…well Kairi is Kairi, we will be fine"
Sora smiled, as he knew there was no way we would let him go alone. Facing towards each other, we piled our hands together in the middle, making Riku Chuckle…
"We are one…"
