Destiny Islands

14 year old Sora stared out his wooden window. The cool ocean breeze blew Sora's spicky brown hair all over. He turned around and tossed himself on his little bed. He saw a paopu fruit next to his bed, and picked it up. He got hungry right then and there, so he ate the yellow star-shaped fruit. Sora went outside and ran towards a palm tree near his house. He started kicking it, hoping a coconut would fall down. But instead, a seagull's egg hit Sora on the head, then bounced onto the ground, rolling away. Sora ignored it, and continued kicking. Nothing. He kicked it again and again, but no luck of any sweet coconuts. So he ran to a different palm tree near the sandy white beach.

He kicked it and shook it, and, finally, a coconut threw itself overboard. Sora picked it up, and cracked it open. White liquid swooshed back and forth, and stopped when Sora tilted it toward his mouth. It was milk inside. Sora released the coconut from his mouth, and let out a large sigh as he saw Kairi, a young girl with short fire red hair run towards him. Sora had always had a small crush on her, but he felt like he could never win her from Riku. She waved her hand as her purple skirt swayed in the wind and stopped by Sora. She tried to catch her breath, and finally she was able to talk to Sora.

"H-Hi..." Kairi said, still gasping for air.

"Hey, Kairi. What's up?" Sora said. Kairi looked up.

"The sky is up, and always has been." Kairi said smiling. Sora and Kairi laughed. Kairi had always been kind of stupid. She had come from a different world. Sora ran towards Riku, a muscular tall man with long white hair that framed his face. All the girls on the island where all after him and his hot looks, but Riku already had a girlfriend. Stupid Kairi. He was taking a nap on a tilted palm tree.

"Hey, Riku! Wanna swim in the ocean?" Sora yelled. Riku shot up, realizing he just took a long nap. He rubbed his head, and let out a sigh.

"Well, since I've got nothing to do, then... sure." Riku got off the palm tree, and stretched. Sora walked towards the ocean, and took his shoes off. He walked where the water stops, and cooled off. Sora knelt down and watched the fish swim by. Riku ran in the ocean, and dove in.

"Hey, wait for me!" Sora said, diving in the ocean. Riku swam in the direction a dolphin was swimming. It splashed around, then went deep down to the ocean floor. Sora stopped, and swam towards a small, small island nearby. He climbed the ladder and jumped up onto the island. He ran towards a boy named Tidus, and asked to play battle. Tidus was around fourteen and he had spiky blond hair. Tidus agreed, and they both ran to the Beach's warm sand. Sora quickly got his shoes on, and picked up a stick shaped like a sword. (Sora made it.) He swung it around, and stopped. He watched Tidus play with his weapon, a stick also shaped like a sword.

"Go!" Sora yelled, running towards Tidus. Tidus jumped to the side as Sora tried a combo attack on him. He missed. He swung the other direction to hit him, but found that wouldn't happen. Tidus swung his "sword" and hit Sora right before he turned around.

Sora fell to the ground, and rolled sideways, just barely missing Tidus's attack. Sora arose from the ground, and found that Tidus was completely open. He swung towards Tidus's stomach, and hit him. Tidus hit the ground, while the water hit his head. Riku swam to shore, and watched the battle. Tidus jumped up, and missed Sora. Sora, again, hit Tidus.

"I win!" Sora cheered, dropping his "sword." He ran around, and slipped on a white rock, falling on his head. Sora sat up, rubbing the bruise. Sora laughed. That was no rock, that was the seagull egg that Sora knocked off the palm tree. Sora lie on the golden sand, and let the warmth touch his skin. Sora daydreamed, and closed his eyes. He had fallen asleep on the sand.

Donald Duck waddled towards the blue castle's gates. He knocked on the real large door. It opened up, and Donald walked in. He walked down the large red carpet.

"Good morning your majesty!" Donald said cheerfully, but then, quacked loud, screaming. The king wasn't in his normal spot, the large chair! Donald saw the king's dog, Pluto run towards him. Pluto handed Donald a long note. Donald read it, and quacked loudly. Donald ran outside into the garden that had beautiful flowers and bushes. Donald had no time to stop and sniff flowers, but did anyway. Realizing what he was doing, his eyes shot open. He ran towards the sleeping, snoring knight, Goofy.

"Goofy, Goofy, wake up! The king is missing!" Donald screamed. Goofy snored.

"Quack!" Donald shot his finger towards the sky, and huge bolts of thunder hurled down and slammed on the Garden's dirt floor. One of the bolts hit Goofy, hurling him into the air screaming.

"D'oh!" Goofy said, rubbing his head.

"Oh, well, good morning, Donald." Goofy said.

"Goofy, Goofy, this is serious! This is Top Secret!"

"Oh, is it about Queen Minnie?"

"Noo! It's something you can't let anyone know about!" Donald screamed. Goofy looked towards one of the garden's bushes.

"Well, Good mornin', ladies!" Goofy said, waving. Donald Duck looked behind him. Queen Minnie and Donald's wife, Daisy, where standing, watching Donald, and listening, too. Donald pretended to laugh.

Sora woke up at dawn. He sat up, stretching and rubbing his eyes. He looked up at the brown sky. Wait a minute, Brown? Something hit Sora on the head, and Sora went back to the ground, lying there. The "brown sky" was a large piece of wood Riku threw on Sora. Sora glanced over at Riku, in whom was talking to Kairi. Sora laughed at the conversation.

"You, Kairi, are just as lazy as Sora is." Riku said.

"So you've noticed!" Kairi said, clenching her hands tightly together. Sora sat up.

"Sora, aren't you gonna help? I can build the raft myself, to, you know." Riku said, glaring at Sora in an un-easy way. Sora arose onto his feet. He stretched his legs and started helping with the raft. Sora remembered why the raft was being built. Sora, Riku, and Kairi want to explore new worlds beyond Sora's homeland, Destiny Islands. Sora picked up the wood, and got to work on the raft that would carry them somewhere magical. He smiled as the nails sank through the deep wood, making a loud "thump" each time it succeeded in going into the wood. Soon the raft was finished at night. They all smiled as the finishing touch, a sail, went onto the raft. They stepped back and stared at the magical, wondrous raft. Sora yawned.

"Well, I'm gonna get to bed. See you guys tomorrow!" Sora said waving. He ran in his house and fell asleep on his bed. He dreamed about the raft and worlds beyond his.

Donald handed the letter to Minnie Mouse, the king's wife. She carefully read the note. It was long, but touching in a way. It read:

Dear Everyone,

I'm sorry I left without saying Good-Bye, but each night I'd look at the night sky, and a star would go out, one-by-one. So I'm on a search for a "key" that will keep the stars in the sky up there, and keep the darkness away from our world. I might not be back for a while, so try and take care of Pluto and the rest of them for me, okay Minnie? Goofy? Donald? Oh, and I might even need your help. When you have the time, travel in my old Gummi-Ship to Traverse Town. Once there, look for a guy named Leon. He'll tell you what to do then. Well, I gotta trap the darkness. So, good luck! Don't worry, I'll be ok. Oh, and Chip and Dale will help control the Gummi Ship for you, and help you with it. Well, buh-bye!

-The King

Minnie Mouse sighed.

"Well, I think Donald and Goofy should be the ones to help the King. Don't you, Daisy?" Minnie asked.

"Oh, yes, I certainly do agree." Dasiy said. Daisy walked up to Donald and kissed him good-luck. Donald smiled and went to the Gummi Garage. He waited for Goofy, which had appeared that very moment. They both talked to Chip and Dale about the missing king. Soon, they where off to find the "key" on the Gummi Ship.

Sora walked outside near a palm tree. He glanced over at the seagull egg. He picked it up, and cracked it open. Seagulls flew by, eating the yolk right out of Sora's hands. Sora laughed hysterically. He set the broken egg down, and saw a wooden box nearby. He walked towards it, wondering whats inside. He hit it with his "sword," and cracked it. He hit it again, and it burst open. Nothing was inside. Then Sora sat down, and laid on his back. There's nothing to do on this island. I mean, why can't we just ride our raft right now? Wait a minute... our raft! Sora jumped up, and ran to Kairi, who was on the raft making a necklace out of Thalasa shells. She saw Sora running to her, and spoke to him.

"Sora, our raft is done!" Kairi said smiling.

"Great, then, let's go!" Sora said cheering.

"Well, um, we still need supplies for our trip, Sora." Kairi said, looking down.

"What do we need, Kairi? I'll get em' for you!"

"Well, we need food and stuff like tools."

"Well, I'll go get the tools. Food, too." Sora ran looking for food first. He moved a large boulder across the sand. It revealed some hole, and there was a mushroom inside.

"Food!" Sora said. He tugged on the mushroom and it popped out of the sand. Sora ran in his house and got an empty glass. He ran outside again, looking for water that wasn't from the ocean. So he ran towards a little waterfall looking thing and filled his empty glass with fresh water. He twisted the lid on, and went searching for mushrooms again. He saw one, and tugged on it. It came out. He walked around and saw a paupo fruit get shoved in is face.

"Here, Sora. A paupo fruit."

"Wha?" Sora asked, confused.

"Legend has it that if you share a paupo fruit with another girl, your hearts will become intertwined. Wanna share it with Kairi, Sora?" Riku asked laughing.

"Heck, no! I'd never share a paupo fruit with her!" Sora said embarrassed. He took the paupo fruit and put it with the rest of the food. Sora had food now, but still needed tools. He ran in his house and got some spair nails and pieces of wood. He got a hammer, too. There. He thought. All done! He ran towards Kairi. It was night, and Sora had a long day finding supplies. He saw Kairi and handed her the stuff.

"Thanks, Sora. We'll head out at sea tomorrow!" Kairi said happily. Sora walked around, not really tired yet. He saw his "Secret Spot," which was under and in a large rock wall. He walked inside, surprised to see Kairi in there.

"Kairi? What are you...?" Sora asked confused.

"Sora..." Kairi said, turning around. Then, a large door opened and a huge gust of wind flew towards Kairi and Sora. Kairi tried standing still, trying to stay in one spot. Kairi couldn't hold still, and got hurled back in the wind. Sora opened his arms.

"Kairi!" He yelled. He tried grabbing her, but she somehow "vanished" and slipped through his arms. He looked back at the door. The wind had vanished, but some purple vortex thing swirled slowly around in the air. Thunder shook the ground, and the stars vanished. Sora ran outside. Riku was on the island where Tidus was. Sora ran to Riku. He swam in the water and climbed the ladder. He got to the top of the island.

"Riku!" Sora said. Riku glared at Sora and vanished, too. A earthquake feeling shook under Sora's feet. He turned around. Something large and black that had a large cut-out heart in the middle of it came down from the vortex. Its feet slammed on the ground, and Sora picked up his "sword." The sword shone brightly, and a key shaped item took the place of the "sword." Sora didn't know what had happened, and didn't really care. He didn't want this... this thing to destroy his island.

He was terrified and his heart beated fast. He shook with fear, hitting the hideous thing. The large black giant slammed his fist to the ground, causing another purple dimension to open. Some more black looking monsters appeared, and they looked like large ants. Sora somehow managed to kill them, and then focused on the the giant. He slammed his key on the monster's foot, and it hit Sora, throwing him into the Ocean. He swam to the ocean's surface, gasping for air. He again climbed the ladder. The monster saw Sora and took a large swing towards him. Sora jumped, hoping to miss the attack. He did, and ran again to the monster. Using everything Sora had, he used his strength to hit the monster hard. The monster froze, and a purple dimension sucked him into some other world. The island then started ripping apart. The whole island seemed as if it where a large fabric fraying in the wind. Everything got sucked up into the purple vortex, including Sora...
