Chapter 1: Awakening.
"Kairi, Remember what you said before... I'm always with you, too! I'll come back to you! I promise!" "I know you will!"
"Thinking of you, wherever you are.
We pray for our sorrows to end,
and hope that our hearts will blend.
Now I will step forward to realize this wish.
And who knows:
starting a new journey may not so hard
or maybe it has already begun.
There are many worlds,
but they share the same sky-
one sky,
one destiny."
"Sora! Riku!"
"W-We're back."
"You're home."
Home.
It's been about a month since Riku and I came thru the door-to-the-light. We were finally home. Not too much has changed. Wakka, Tidus, and Selphie finally remembered me. Goofy, Donald, and the king all went back home to the castle, the king leaving a note saying good-bye, come visit soon, ect. I wondered what Daisy would say to Donald. Probably scolding him for not stopping by that much.
I chuckled slightly at the thought, while looking out at the vast, sparkling ocean. The sun was high in the sky, just beginning to slowly slink it's way down to the horizon. I was sitting on the old bent paopu tree that Riku, Kairi and I had always finished off the day with by sitting by. Except this time, I was alone with my thoughts.
What a small world. But part of one that's much bigger. I pondered at Riku's words, smiling as the memories of that almost heavenly day flooded into my mind.
So many things has happened in these past two years, you would think that now every-thing's normal again, I would be normal too. But...there's just something...wrong. I can feel it, deep in my heart. Even though I'm still here, on Destiny Islands, I know that I've slowly began to drift away from Riku and Kairi.
I've...been having these weird thoughts lately. Like, is any of this for real? Or not? Could this mean that he was-
A sudden hand that clamped down on my shoulder jerked me out of my thoughts, and caught me off guard. This meaning I fell off the Paopu tree, on my head for that matter, with a thud.
"Heey!" I complained loudly, sitting up and rubbing the back of my insane chocolate brown spikes, then brushing the sand and dirt off my worn out jean shorts. "What's the big idea?"
"A little jumpy today, aren't you Sora?
I didn't even have to look up to no that it was no doubt, my silver-haired best friend, Riku. I looked up at his face, he smirked, I stuck my tongue out as if I were five,
"Yeah well you didn't have to come out of no where and attack me. Jeez Riku, of all people to surprise me...." I grumbled to myself for a few extra seconds.
He chuckled, obviously enjoying the fact he could rub this in my face,
"I didnt have to! With your reflexes, even a squirrel could make you jump like that! Now c'mon! Its time to have a little...sparring match. You'll never know when you'll see a heartless again." He pointed at me. " Especially since your the 'oh great and powerful keyblade-master'. We wouldn't want you to get hurt, plus I wanna see if I'm still better then you." he teased.
I shook my head, smirking devilishly, this was going to be too easy. Jumping to my feet, I stood back up on top of the bent old fruit tree, silently scheming in my head how I was going to throw a Paupo fruit at his head if I just waited.
"Oh yeah? Well bring it on Sir-gets-trapped-in-the-darkness-a-lot-while-waiting-for-me-to-save-you! Yeah! No keyblades, no potions of any kind. No nothing. We're going old-school!" Not the best of com-backs, but what can I say? Even the Keyblade master has his off days.
Riku narrowed his eyes.
"All right then! Lets go! Just don't run crying to Kairi when I beat you!" I felt a twinge of competitive nature go up my spine.
"You're on! Just don't cry your eyes out because you have no one to run crying to!" I cried, aborting the long plan to throw a fruit and just jumping down from the tree, hoping to land on Riku and knock him down.
I just didn't count on him knowing and punching me in mid-air, off the small island we were on and into into the ocean below. It wasn't like it was deep, only four feet. And I was about to get up when I heard a voice.
His voice.
"Heh heh, I remember Hayner acting the same way." I became paralyzed. That voice is familiar...who could it b-
A name popped up before I could even finish the thought-Roxas. I felt my head begin to throb, and I don't think it was from falling off that tree. How could-
"I'm coming back." Back? What was going on? And what did Roxas mean? I felt myself sink into black, but I didn't do anything. How would he "come back"?
"Watch out!" Watch out for wha- oh yeah. I can't breathe underwater. So that was what the black was! Me losing conciseness. Little memories of my childhood began to race through my head. What was this? A dream now? Oh wait, could this be the whole life-passing-through-my-eyes thing?
Crap.
If I'm dead, I'm going to haunt Riku. Pushing me in the water like that. Or maybe I should haunt Roxas, for making me be an idiot and not getting out of the water while I could. I heard my name and was instantly pulled out of my thoughts,
"Sora!" My eyes flashed open to blinding sun in my eyes and I could feel myself gasping for air, coughing as I did. I felt the hot, dry sand beneath me. Someone had obviously dragged me out of the water, and back onto the beach. I coughed up a little more salty water, then directed my gaze to the figures in front of me.
Kairi and Riku.
Who else could I expect?
"Wha?" I squinted up at them, trying to sit up but quickly laying back down. My head felt like it weighed a ton, and I wanted to just go back to sleep. My memories of what happened no more then three minutes ago were beginning to become hazy, so I asked the most basic question of all questions: "What happened?"
"You almost succeeded in committing suicide. Wow, I didn't know you wanted to get out of that match THAT bad!" Kairi rolled her eyes at him and looked right back at me,
"I heard you two yelling at each other and I knew the two of you were going to have a match, so I was coming over to ref. But when I did get here, Riku was staring over the edge like an idiot, not doing anything, just mumbling to himself something about how once you got up he was going to kick your a-" Riku interrupted her before she could say anything else,
"Ask her no more questions! We are glad you are living! Don't die!!" I raised an eyebrow suspiciously as Kairi and Riku gave each other kindergarden-mean faces. I started to chuckle.
"Thanks for not letting me die Kai." She smiled then stuck her tongue at Riku,
"Not a problem Sora, but sometimes I feel like I'm the only one that can make sure you two don't kill each other." I raised my hands, signaling I would need help getting up. Kairi took my left instantly, Riku turned and looked away as if taking my hand would make him look gay. He said while smirking,
"Sora, I know you just experienced a near-death situation and probably never want to discuss it," he threw a threatening glance at Kairi, then went on, "but I STILL pwn you! Death isn't an excuse!" I glared at him then pulled on Kairi's hand to get up. At first I was a little shaky, but I finally regained my balance. I tried to say my comeback as fiercely as possibly,
"Oh yeah? Well...I HAVE MORE FAN GIRLS!!" Riku smiled.
"Oh, well that explains everything, because NO one wants their hero to die, right? And that also explains why you're so bad! You spend too much time posing for those magazines." Kairi rolled her eyes and groaned while I stared daggers at Riku,
"Uh! Can't you two stop day-dreaming about fan-girls and other fantasies for ONE second?" Riku raised his eyebrows.
"I don't think about other people. It distracts me. Unlike Sora, I'mtraining for the next possible thing to happen to our world. Because where ever the Keyblade master is, so is Heartless. They should be here any second." I stuck my tongue at them both, crossing my arms,
"Well SORRY I got the better keyblade! I just can't help how-" I stopped, looking at the horizon. There was a black dot-something like a gummi ship yet different-spiraling down towards the island. The dot was growing bigger by the second, and soon enough it was less than fifty feet away. My first thought was heartless, but I didn't see the symbol anywhere on the ship. Riku closed his eyes.
"It's about time too." I raised an eyebrow, balling up my fists,
"You knew about this?"
Riku nodded. "The stars are going out again. Other worlds are in danger. I predicted this a day ago." I still clenched my fist,
"What are you talking about? I haven't seen any stars going out! And what, you're a freakin fortune teller now?!"
Riku sighed. " I watched the stars go out in another galaxy, using the power of shadows." I felt a trickle of blood ooze from my fist, I uncurled it then glared at the silverette.
"You used the shadows?"
"Dont worry. I sent help a few weeks back to Merlin. He said he would send someone. And just be glad it wasn't darkness."
He looked at me hopefully. " Its okay, Sora. This is just help. It should explain everything to you. I'll tell you my story later." I shook my head,
"No! I didn't want to go on another adventure where we get seperated, and this time I don't think we'll be so lucky to make it back home. I just want-"
Before I could finish the ship slammed into the island, spraying sand everywhere.
It was here.
Riku looked up. "This time, its different."
Demon-Well that's ch.1 for ya! More reviews inspire us to write faster so...
Angie- Dont worry D, If good writers got the respect and fame they thought would be theirs, we would be out of the job.
