Destiny Islands: Sea

Sora, Riku, and Kairi were sitting in a boat, rowing towards land. Or, more accurately, Sora and Riku were rowing. Kairi had volunteered herself to be lookout." So where did you get this boat again, Kairi?" Riku grunted as he pushed forward on the oars, his side burning slightly at his efforts.

"I built it," she replied with a shrug.

"When did you do that?" Sora asked as he yanked back on the oars.

"While you were taking your year-long nap and Riku was traipsing around the galaxy."

"Oh, big word," Riku laughed as they floated forward.

Kairi grinned, "Yeah, all AP courses will do that for you."

Sora stared at her as she bantered with Riku, "How did you know what we were doing? We haven't told you yet."

Kairi looked at him, confused, "I...I don't know."

Weird, Sora thought to himself as he looked at Kairi. He hadn't realized it amidst the fighting, but while he was asleep she had gone from cute to drop dead gorgeous. Her tanned skin glowed in the sinking sun's glow, and her eyes flashed as she stared into the horizon.

Her head jerked, breaking him out of his daydream, "Guys! I can see it! I can see Zanara!" Sora and Riku looked past her head, seeing their island home for the first time in two years. A mile-and-a-half from their play island, Zanara was the size of a small continent. It was the largest land mass on the Destiny Islands, which contained over seven islands, all of which were either part of small archipelagos or were mid-sized trading colonies. Zanara boasted three large cities, ten towns, and seven ports. Sora, Riku, and Kairi lived in the port city of Sarseah, smallest of the three cities. It was the trade capital of the Destiny Islands, but though it was the richest city of their world, it had no buildings over three stories, save for the town hall and the temple. The architecture was simple, but contained a subtle ambiance of the ocean and land. The second island, Clanistes, was the seat of the island's republic government, and was located exactly three miles away from Zanara. It held on it the House of Senators, which was were the Senators of each island met to make laws and important decisions. The third largest island was Kentmont, and was the seat of industrial power on the Destiny Islands. Smoke rose softly from the steel and wood factories dominating the island's land.

"Second most beautiful sight I've seen in a long time," Sora said with a bit of awe in his voice.

"What's the first?" Kairi asked as she stared at the city.

Sora grinned sheepishly, "You."

Riku groaned, "Oh get a room you two. Oh Crud!!!!"

"What's wrong?"

"Our parents are going to kill us!"

Sora recoiled, "He's right! What're we going to do?"

Kairi sighed, "Tell them the truth I guess, it's the only thing we can do really."

"But how oh wise one?" Riku asked sarcastically.

"We should just get them all together and tell them everything." Sora answered, a nervous quaver in his voice.

"That's right, agree with your girlfriend."

"We are not dating!" the teens yelled as they blushed in unison. The boat jolted suddenly as they hit land, knocking everyone off balance. Riku recovered first, hopping out of the boat.

"How 'bout we take them to the glade on the play island? It's big enough, and we all know where it is."

"Good idea," Sora said as he jumped off the boat," 10:00 sound good to you guys?"

"Yep," Kairi agreed as she got out of the boat.

"So tomorrow, 10:00 o'clock, at the glade?"

"Deal!"
