"maybe they're right maybe i am useless." sora said into the darkness. it was about a day ago that everyone left the island, everyone except sora and karie. "sora? you're still here?" karie called to an open window. in anser to her question sora poped his head out the window and waved at her. "sora i thought you were gonna go back with donald and goofy? and where's riku?" karie asked. sora stepped away from the window and walked to the front door opening it and inviting her in. "riku went with donald and goofy." sora explained. karie looked confused wanting to ask many questions but not knowing what to ask first. finally deciding on a question she asked. "but why i thought they were going to follow the keyblade." sora took a deep breath and began to explain everything that had happened.

"so now riku as the keyblade! and he donald and goofy just left you here?" karie asked. sora just nodded. he himself had wondered why it all happened. 'i thought they were my friends' sora thought. 'well some friends they truned out to be.' karie and sora just sat. the silence seemed to last forever. neither knowing what to say. sora stood up and wallked outside and headed twords the secret spot.

karie just sat there watching him go wondering if she should follow him or not. "oh riku what happened? why did you abondon sora?" karie asked as if riku was in the same room as her. 'go after him karie' "who, who are you?" karie asked the voice in her head. 'im namine.' "namine, ok let's go help sora." karie replied. she left sora's house and started to look for him. "SORA? SORA WHERE ARE YOU?" karie called. but silence was the only answer she got. 'try the secret place' namine suggested. karie nodded and started to run twords the place where her and sora use to always go together. and sure enought when she got there she saw sora.

"sora?" karie called as she walked twords him. sora turned around to face her but when he did karie noticed that the boy that she was looking at wasn't the sora she knew. "karie." sora said in an emotionless voice. he walked twords her. but with every step he took foward she took one back. "who are you? you're not sora! WHAT DID YOU DO WITH HIM!" karie screamed but he didn't answer. just stared into her eyes like he was trying read her thoughts. sora had finally stopped moving and so did karie. sora kept looking into her eyes watching karie as if her eyes had hypnotized him. they stood there in the dark cave for a long time neither of them wanting to move from the spot they were in. that is until karie heard a noise comming from behind sora.

she looked over and saw that the strange door shaped wood at the end of the cave was opening. her eyes got wide as she saw a dark figure step out from behind it. seeing the reflection in karie's eyes sora turned around to try and see who it was she was looking at. "why hello there roxas long time no see." the dark figure had said. "roxas? but he's not roxas his name is sora!" karie stated. she was a little confused at who the man was and why he had called sora roxas. 'roxas? so that's his true form.' namine said. "WHO ARE YOU!" screamed karie. "names axel. A-X-E-L got it memorized?" axel asked as he took off his hood to reviel his face. "so it seems you and roxas have forgotten me." axel said. "too bad i was hoping i wouldn't have forcefully take you to our boss. but you can't always get what you want." sora just stood there staring at axel. trying to remember the red haired man. karie looked at him in hatred wanting nothing but for him to leave. but in The Rive of life, even those who choose the good route, won't always avoid the white water.
