1. Destiny - Sora/Kairi
It was meant to be, she always knew it. It just… took her time to realize, but she always wished she would have realized earlier.
He had found her when she was lost and alone, not only one, but twice. He had saved her, protected her, comfort her. He was her hero, her prince, a chosen one, the best of the best.
How could she not love him? After so much… after such things… after those experiences…
And so… while looking at the horizon from their beloved island, she made an solemn oath: Her heart would always belong to him.
2. Awake
"What is the most important thing to you?" Selphie asked.
"I… I don't know" Sora replied, a bit confused.
"Think about it. Every dawn… every time you get up… what is what you wish?"
"Well… I think… I always wish to have a nice day"
"Very well" She smiled "And what makes you have a nice day?"
"Well… a good day… what makes it good? Uh… Playing with my friend! Yeah, that's the best"
"You understand now?"
"Yes" He was sure.
"So… What is the most important thing to you?"
"Friendship"
She smiled again… such a beautiful and warm smile.
3. Dream
"Yo! Man, What do you want outta life?" Wakka asked in his usual cheerful way
"What do you mean?" Sora couldn't understand.
"C'mon! Ya know, what is what you whish to do in this life? What're your goals?"
"Uh… I'm not really sure; I think I want a lot"
"A lot? C'mon man! You gotta have something called priorities! Ya know?"
"It's… it's kind of hard"
"Gez, don't be such a whimp! You know it! You always think about it!"
"I do?"
"Yeah!"
"What I always think about… it's to see other worlds"
"So?"
"I want to broaden my horizons"
4. Nightmare
"Heya, Sora!" Tidus saluted
"Hi, pal" He replied
"Tell me, what are you scared of?"
"W-W-What? Why are you asking me that?"
"Just tell me! Come on, what is your worst fear?"
"Man! I don't like to think about those things! Besides, I couldn't really tell! I probably don't even know what would scare me most"
"But what about what you do know? What is really scary?"
"Crap! Man, you are scaring me right now!"
"Am I? Why?"
"I… I don't know!"
"It's because you don't know?"
"Uh?"
"Is it?"
He suddenly understood it… perfectly.
"I'm afraid of being indecisive"
5. Wisdom
His arrogance putting Sora on the nerves was an habit by now, thanks heavens Goofy was with them, or they would have killed each other already.
He was incorrigible. His strictness was just a reflection of his selfishness, and ambitious was not the word for him, it was greedy. It was hard to believe that he was the King's right hand.
But yet, their lives had been saved more than once… uncountable times by his magic, always there for them.
Donald knew the meaning of friendship, and that was more than enough for his friend to call him a sage.
6. Valor
He closed his eyes like he always did when he started to run into a group of heartless, always making wonder his friends how could he success in his attacks almost every time.
They knew he hated fighting, but he would never let them down, he would always be a shield for his friends. He was no coward.
He was a father, so he'd take the paternal role for Sora sometimes.
Even in the worst situations, he'd always make life seems so easy. Donald would never admit it, but he envied him for that.
Were would they be without Goofy?
7. Big Brother - Yuffie/Leon
He was about to kill her.
"I'm NOT going shopping with you!"
Never again would he be her pack mule!
"Oh, c'mon Squall!"
"It's LEON! Just how many times do I have to tell you?"
"What if the heartless attack?"
"So what? You can defend yourself"
"Oh, c'mon! Leon, I beg you! It's not fun without you"
"And since when am I the funny one?"
"Please!"
"NO! And that's my last word"
"Fine! Be like that" Yuffie responded, evidently hurt.
She looked down, turned back and went out.
Leon sighed, wanting to kill himself now and there.
He followed her.
8. Caring Wife - Leon/Aerith
"Just relax and let me do the work"
Leon obeyed, laid back in his bed- wait, it was HER bed! -and let her treat his injures, knowing she would do all she could to reduce his pain at minimum. He wouldn't fear. He trusted her… absolutely.
Honestly, what would be of him if Aerith wasn't by his side? She had showed him the meaning of life when he had forgotten it; she had taught him to remember his lost loved ones by the good times he spent with them and not for fouling his anger.
How couldn't he love her?
9. Dear Mother - Aerith/Yuffie
"Seriously! Don't EVER dare to make this again!" Aerith shouted angrily while treating Yuffie.
"I've already said I'm sorry!"
"If Leon wouldn't have arrived at time…"
"I KNOW! Could you please stop repeating me that?"
"NO, I DON'T" She screamed at her, causing her eyes to open wide at the sight of tear running down her checks "Don't you understand? I couldn't stand up against it… I cannot even thing about you dying. I love you, we love you! We don't want to loose you…"
"Aerith" She replied caressing her tears "Don't worry, I won't do it again. I promise"
10. Friends
Drawing their Keyblades, both were standing back to back, surrounded by the largest number of Heartless they had ever seen.
They were doomed… and they knew…
Oblivion…
"Very well, if it is our destiny to die here…"
"…So be it… may our last breath be given for the sake of every heart!"
"C'mon, you are not giving up that easily, right?"
"Of course not! I want to see daylight once more"
Way to the Dawn…
The War of Light and Darkness…
And they still had a promise to fulfill…
Oathkeeper…
Sora and Riku… together they would fight to the end!
