Sora's POV
It's the first night after we got home from our journey. Destiny Islands are quiet, even the breeze is silent. I lay with my hands behind my head in my bed, thinking about Kairi. I gave her back her special lucky charm as soon as I was out of the water. I didn't think I would miss it, but I did. It was like there was a hole in my pocket were it used to be. Maybe because that was all I had of Kairi while I was traveling. Kairi had changed allot while I was gone. Just thinking about it made my head spin. She was taller, her hair longer, her clothes changed. I wouldn't deny that she was sexy now, too. I sigh longingly, wishing I could go see her now. Now, not later. But is was 4 in the morning, and she would be sleeping.
Quiet as it was, a quick rap on my window makes me jump. I fall right off my bed with a loud thump. Grumbling, I stand up quickly. A soft giggle lingers in the night just outside my window. Another rock hits the window, sending another loud rap through my room.
"Sora!" A familiar voice hisses, sending a shock through my body. "Wake up!"
"Kairi?" I ask in a low voice, creeping over to the window and opening it. I peek down to the ground from my second floor position and duck as a rock comes flying at my face.
"Hey!" I protest, and she laughs out loud. A short laugh that rings with anticipation and feminine vocals.
"Come on!" She waves me down and steps back quickly. I grip the window frame from the top and swing myself out of the window. I land in a crouch on the sandy ground with another thump and look around for Kairi. She isn't in sight, but that didn't mean anything.
"Well, I better get back to bed if Kairi isn't here." I say a little bit louder than needed. I turn and slowly walk towards the front door of the house. Suddenly, I am face down in the sand. I lift my head and spit out the sand when my face is pushed back down. Kairi giggles from my back and swats at my head.
"Don't you dare go back inside!" She says in mock anger, swatting at my head again. I pretend to wince and mumble into the sand until she gets off and stands up. I quickly stand up and eye her warily, waiting for her to pounce again. She laughs, her vivid hair trembling as she bends over. I raise my eyebrow and wait for her to control herself. It doesn't take long and she is standing up, looking at me with worried eyes.
"You look like you are scared of me, is there a reason for that?" She asks with worry in her voice. It was well hidden, but I knew her voice well.
"Well, you did just pounce on me." I flash a grin at her. "And you hit me." I pretend to wince again as I rub the spot were she got me, twice.
"Oh, well. That makes sense then." She snorts. "Come on, I want to go to the secret place." She whirls on the spot and sprints away.
"Hey!" I protest in a mock whisper. "Come back here!" I run after her and almost touch her back when she bends down and scoots into the secret place. I bend over and go in after her. The cave is empty.
"Kairi?" No answer. "Kairi? Come on, this isn't funny." Still, no answer. Fear slowly settles in, what had happened? There was no reason for me to be scared for her, the heartless and nobodies were gone. Their leaders beaten and destroyed. Yet, my stomach squirms uneasily. Then, an ear piercing scream sounds around the cave and Kairi appears. She is being held by a glowing creature. Confused, I pause for a second before holding out my hand to call upon the keyblade. The creature looked like a Dusk, a type of nobody. Yet, it didn't. It was slightly clear. You could see through it but you could see the creature too. Like dirty glass or thin paper. Kairi pants in the creature's arms and fights violently to get free. Her hands are tied behind her back and her ankles are tied together. The creature drops her and spreads it's arms wide. With a roar of fury, I rush unknowingly towards the creature and slash at it with the kingdom key. Just before the tip of the whirling blade hits the creature, it picks up Kairi and disappears with a slight pop. Quite a few different feelings rush through me as drop to my knees and put my face in my hands. Defeat, fear, anger, confusion... I shake my head and moan sadly. 'Now what?' I ask myself, even though I already knew. I would find a way to save Kairi, I would find out how to defeat this new enemy, I would come home again. This time, I had Riku to help me. The King might help too. I knew that Donald and Goofy would help. No matter what, they would always fight right beside me. I had to go find them, now. We had to leave, soon. I stand up and sprint out of the cave. Some part of me must have been hopeing to see Kairi outside the cave, because when I see the empty air in front of me, my heart drops. I quickly come to my senses and run up to Riku's house. The King, Donald and Goofy were staying here with Riku for the night and leaving the morning, or rather, they were. I rap on the door and something falls inside. Donald yells and I guess that Goofy fell off the couch and onto Donald. Donald then stomped over to the door and his anger turned to surprise when he saw me standing there. He didn't move, or say anything. He just looked shocked. I withdraw from my surroundings and try to feel my face, to find out what he is seeing. Pain, fear, anger. My face is twisted and sweaty, my hands trembling around the Keyblade. Finally, Donald says something.
"Sora? What's wrong?" Goofy walks over and tilts his head.
"Gawrsh, Sora. You don't look so good."
"Um." I falter, my voice failing me.
"Riku, come here for a second." Donald calls over his shoulder. Riku doesn't answer, but stands up and walks over to the doorway. He stops dead when he sees the look on my face and the keyblade. Only he knew what could cause me to look like this.
"Kairi." He chokes out.
"Kairi?" Donald blurts out. "What about Kairi?"
"She... was taken... by this creature... I don't know what it is! We have to save her... somehow..." I bite my lip and blink hard, fighting tears.
"Creature? What did it look like?" I look down at The King as he speaks.
"It looked like a Dusk, nobody. But it was slightly see through. You could see everything behind it, and it too."
"Oh no" His face pales slightly. "Oh no, no, no..." He shakes his head, glances at everybody else warily then looks back at me. "Welp, we gotta go get her before it is too late. These creatures are violent ones, they are the souls of evil doers that become heartless. When a evil person, at any rate, becomes a heartless. It creates three creatures. A strong Heartless, a strong Nobody and a strong Rapier. If Hades was turned into a heartless, he would have a strong nobody and a strong Rapier. If somebody human, a human evil doer, became a heartless. They too would have a nobody and rapier. But the creatures to the human evil doer would be weaker, because not all humans have special powers. Like a robber, a rapist, a lier. These are bad things to do, at any rate. Considering that the Rapier took Kairi, and not the Keyblade wielder, I can say that it most likely is a Rapist Rapier. If it gets to it's stronghold, she will become permanently a sex slave."
"Oh no." My jaw drops in horror and my knees shake. "We have to go, now." I say a little more strongly than I was feeling.
"Yeah." Riku nods his agreement. Donald also nods.
"Gawrsh, Sora. Are you sure? We don't even know how to fight these Rapiers yet."
"YES!" I almost shout. "We have to go, NOW!" The King frowns and runs out the door, towards his Gummy ship. Donald and Goofy do the same. Goofy trips on the way, and Donald quacks angrily. Riku and I run after Donald and Goofy and into their huge Gummy ship. The King takes off quickly, his tiny Gummy ship racing out of sight. As soon as Riku and I are seated, Donald presses a button and Goofy taps another. This causes their Gummy ship to race after the king's ship. Worlds flash by the small window that I am seated next to as we race towards Kairi.
"Don't worry Kairi." I whisper softly, soft enough so that nobody can hear me. "We are coming... I am coming... to save you."
