Well I decided to update this story since it's been a long time since I did hahaha XD and my friend read it and immediately recognized it from his dream so I really wanted to write chapter 2
…
…
Naminé made it back to the palace without anyone taking notice of her absence but Kairi. She swam back to her the palace garden filled with giant purple corals that mysteriously glowed from within.
She found her sister sitting near one of the benches in the palace garden pacing back and forth obviously worried someone like Vanitas or their father would catch them. She laughed at her sister's paranoid attitude as she slowly swam towards her.
"Hey sis" she said from above her, floating on her back not wanting to land on the white sand floor.
Her sister, Kairi got startled from her sudden appearance but felt relieved at the same time. "About time you got here! I was beginning to get worried someone would see!"
"*giggle* you know what…you worry too much" said Naminé as she placed her hands on her head still floating above her.
"I'm your sister! I was just worried what if one of those dangerous humans would capture you"
"They're not dangerous sis!" she said with such ease "I even saw them by the shore they—"
"Wait…You…SAW THEM?" said her sister who was staring at her with shocked eyes
"Of course…three to be in fact" she said looking at her sister
"Three?! Did they see you?" she said putting her hands on her mouth
"Not really I was only observing from afar" she said flipping her body and putting her hands on her chin
"Thank God…" she said in a relieved sigh putting her hand on her chest
"I overheard the humans' conversation that all royalty would be invited to a ball" she said with a smirk knowing she caught attention of her sister "I was wondering if we were invited *giggle*"
"What? A ball?!" said the auburn haired girl looking at her sister with deep shock and worry with all the things she knew her sister might do.
"Yes…Wouldn't you just wanna experience a ball from above?" she said as she swam above her sister her hair was dancing with the waves of the water along with her white dress.
"N….N…No!" said her sister nervously looking away "You should stop this Nami!"
"Oh come on Kai! I know you want to attend the ball as well"
Kairi avoided her sister's gaze from above her as she put her sister's request in deep thought. "Y…Yeah…I do but…"
"See! I told you! Hahahaha it would be fun right?" she said looking above sighing dreamily
"…It's wrong Nami. Yes we are royalty but the humans do not know our existence. We also have a responsibility to our kingdom. They are dangerous and I can assure you can't make it back alive staying with them"
"You sound just like dad" she replied gloomily "I don't care I'm going to prove you guys wrong" then she swam away to her room hastily.
"She's just as stubborn as always" said Kairi to herself rubbing her head as if a migraine was about to form
…
…
Naminé swam away as fast as she could, heading into her room but accidentally bumped into Vanitas as she was in the palace halls.
"Oh…Hello Naminé …I was…looking for you" he said to her stroking her arms
Naminé harshly pushed away his hand "What do you want?" she said crossing her arms and giving annoyed expression looking away from the dark haired boy.
"Dinner is about to be served" he said resisting his urge to slap her.
Naminé could hear the effort he was doing to resist which made her even more pissed "I'm not hungry"
"But I want to eat with my ever so beautiful…fiancé" he said hissing the word and stroking her cheeks
"Well it's your loss then" she said looking at him with fierce blue eyes.
She started to swim away but Vanitas quickly got a hold of her wrist.
"Let go of me you—" she said but was interrupted as Vanitas literally went close to her as his lips were inches away from hers.
"Treat me all you want Naminé but once the marriage is done you will thinking twice before you make another stand in with our…little relationship" he said her name in a sarcastic tone followed by a devilish laugh "Mark my words I will make you regret this"
She ignored his words and gave him a stern look and harshly pushed away his hand forcing him to let go. She turned her back on him preparing to swim away but she faced him for a second with a look of disgust "Correction…You will regret this" then she swam as fast as she could.
…
…
She went inside her room as and jumped on her bed carelessly. Bubbles appeared from the impact she made from her jump. She started screaming in her pillow as she could feel tears form in her eyes. She stayed on her bed for what felt like hours until she heard someone knock on the door.
"Nami, you okay? I'm coming in"
She realized it was her sister she wanted to tell her to go away but it was too late as her sister already entered her room.
Kairi saw her sister slumped on the bed "What's wrong?"
"Nothing" she replied coldly facing her sister trying her best to erase the image of Vanitas in her mind.
Kairi didn't notice her tears because once they pour out they would immediately mix with the sea. "At least come and eat with us" she said with a tone of voice overflowing with concern "We were waiting for you"
"I'm not hungry" she said facing away from her sister
Kairi felt hurt from her sister's words but she knew her better. She knew her ever since they were kids. She knew what every bit of action her little sister did meant.
"Don't worry Vanitas won't be joining us" she said in an enthusiastic manner sitting on her bed hoping her words would get to her sister "at least I made sure of that…that guy creeps me out"
Naminé giggled and saw that there is no point in refusing to her sister since she would just keep persuading her to go into the dining room. She smiled at her sister and stood up quietly as they swam together to see their father.

…
Roxas lied down on the white sandy beach watching the sunset wave its last breath to the sky before getting engulfed by the darkness that was yet to arrive. He didn't realize he drifted off to sleep in the white sand by the peaceful waves of the beach.
He dreamt he was in a field engulfed with yellow and purple flowers. He saw the butterflies dancing around the yellow daisies and purple orchids. He stood up taking in the scent of his surroundings. He noticed a girl from afar running around the field of flowers as if she was freed from a certain cage. She had blonde hair and was wearing a white dress that was dancing in the wind, but he couldn't make out her face. He started to approach the girl but nothing seemed to happen as he went nearer she kept getting farther. He started to run but it only became worse. The field of flowers started to wither, the bright blue sky began to turn dim, and the girl from afar lost her enthusiastic look as he saw her staring at him with crestfallen eyes. He felt empty and scared as his surroundings began to slip away little by little. The girl from afar sat down on the field and began to whimper.
Roxas didn't know what to do that's why he shouted at her. "Are you okay! Can you hear me?"
The girl continued to whimper and soon fainted. He didn't know what to do and he started running after her. He ran and ran but the earth beneath his feet started to crack before he knew it he was falling into a dark void deep into the abyss.
…
…
His whole body literally jumped up and found himself back on the beach. His heart was beating so fast and his arms were shaking. He looked at his hands to find his vision was starting to get hazy. It was already night time which signaled everybody the time to be home.
"I…I better head back" he said as he started to push himself up the ground and head back to his 'mother'.
Who was that girl? He thought as he brushed the sand off his clothes.
He made his way back to the well where he saw Ventus and Terra and made a slight turn to lead him back to the cottage. He saw his step mother sound asleep on her bed the fire was already out. He saw some porridge on the table but found it to be cold. He smiled at his step-mother's attempt to show that she cared, but he knew that she was only doing this so that no rumors would spread of her hatred for him right? Who would love an adopted child whose parents abandoned him?
But despite all the harsh treatments she had thrown on Roxas he still loved her as if she was his real mother. Roxas sighed deeply and forced himself to eat the cold porridge.
…
…
Naminé and Kairi silently swam downstairs into the dining room. The little blonde beside her sister greeted the servants with her usual bright face. She swam above her sister and giggled childishly challenging her sister to a race towards the dining room. Her sister just laughed and pulled her down so that they would walk towards the dining room together.
The dining room was illuminated by a chandelier that was illuminated from within below it was a rectangle shaped dining table that was large enough fit for royalty. There were three pearl-made plates that contained different greens of sea weed placed across the table with forks at the side of each. In the other end of the table was their father. He had purple eyes with shades of blue and blonde hair complete with a gold crown with intricate designs of red, green and blue gems.
"Good evening my daughters" he said looking at them with gentle eyes.
"Hi daddy" said Naminé, cheerfully swimming to a chair to the right side of her father.
"Good evening dad!" said Kairi as she gave her father a kiss on the cheek and sat across her sister
"What took you two so long? Vanitas became impatient so I told him to eat ahead and rest in his quarters" he said looking at Naminé who was staring at her salad avoiding his gaze "This didn't have something to do with you two again am I right…Naminé?"
Naminé gulped and remained silent.
"I'm not sure dad I mean, Naminé was up in her room" said Kairi all of a sudden so that her father's rage won't be on her little sister
Her father ignored her words and kept his firm gaze on Naminé "Vanitas made mention of you leaving the palace earlier. Is this true Naminé?"
"…" Naminé didn't know what to say even though she had already expected this to happen. Then all of a sudden Vanitas's words started echoing in her head
I'll make you regret this
This made her pissed and it caused her to flinch with annoyance. She started to grip the end of her dress to prevent herself from shouting and showing her hatred towards the black haired boy.
"Naminé! Answer me!" demanded her father which caused her to come out of her thoughts
"Yes I did" she said honestly "I went up shore"
"WHAT?!" he said slamming his fist on the table
"D…Dad! Don't be mad at Naminé! It was all my fau—" said Kairi trying to protect her sister but Naminé interrupted her
"No sis…I want to tell dad"
"You knew and yet you didn't do anything to stop her?!" said her father to Kairi
"Dad don't get mad at Kairi. It was my entire fault okay?" she said looking at her father with bright blue eyes "I went off without Kairi knowing"
"WHY?! How many times must I tell you?! The humans are dangerous!"
"They are NOT!" she said harshly for her father to listen "You keep me locked up in this palace that you don't even realize the beauty of the outside world!"
"Beauty?! Listen to yourself Naminé! The humans have poisoned your mind! Have you forgotten that it was the humans' fault that your mother is gone?!"
"That was an accident dad!" she said not wanting to bring up the topic
"It was not an accident Naminé! The humans have disrupted the peace of the sea with their bombs that have caused the deaths of many of our citizens!"
"…" she remained quiet not knowing how to convince her father.
"If only you would listen to me and stop all this nonsense" he said rubbing his forehead "I don't understand why you love it outside than here in the palace…you have a good life and a fiancé…" he said staring at her with concern and rage "I've made my decision you will marry Vanitas tomorrow so that you will remain here to rule this kingdom"
This infuriated Naminé "I don't wanna marry Vanitas! I don't even understand why I'm supposed to marry an asshole like him!"
"DO NOT USE THAT KIND OF LANGUAGE WITH ME YOUNG LADY!" looking at his daughter with pure rage
"E…Enough both of you! Please!" begged Kairi tears almost appearing at her eyes
"KAIRI GO TO YOUR ROOM" he said not taking his eyes of Naminé
"But—" pleaded Kairi
"NOW"
Kairi followed her father's order silently and hoped that nothing bad would happen.
After Kairi left her father started shouting again…but little did they know Kairi was listening from the entrance
"You know very well why you're the one to be married to Vanitas!" said her father "You know your sister cannot rule this kingdom without the ability to produce an heir!"
Kairi heard this and felts shocked and hurt. She always wondered why she wasn't the one chosen to be the heir, she thought it was because Vanitas chose her little sister, but she never expected something as serious as this. Kairi then ran to her room tears coming from her eyes mixing in with the waters.
"I know that! But you can't force me to marry someone as cruel as Vanitas nor someone I don't love!"
"But you have to face your responsibility to your people!"
"…" she remained quiet knowing he was right "I'm going back to my room"
Before her father could say another word she swam away. "I'll prove to them that humans aren't dangerous"
…
…
The next day she heard knocks and expected she was to be greeted by hundreds of servants to prepare her for the wedding, but to her surprise it was her fiancé…Vanitas
"Helloooo Naminé" said Vanitas seductively through the door
"Vanitas…" she said in frustration
"I told you….you would regret treating me like shit"
"Go away" she started to close the door but Vanitas was too fast and blocked his foot through the opening of the door
"Not…So…Fast…" he said playfully as he slowly went inside and locked the door behind him.
Naminé took a careful step back staring at Vanitas with pure hatred while her hands were searching for something she could use to defend herself. Soon, he cornered her. She could feel the bed on her legs which signified her there was no place else to go. He gave a devilish grin.
"There's no place else to go"
Vanitas grabbed her hands tightly and pushed her down on the bed. Naminé screamed her heart out but to her surprised no one could hear her. She struggled to escape from Vanitas's hold but she couldn't move her body since his weight was all on her.
"Can't move now can we?" he said
Then he kissed her neck upwards giving it soft licks that Naminé shivered and kept on screaming. She started to feel tears spread across her face then…
She woke up screaming in her bed. Everyone was still in deep slumber but her.
"That's it…I need to get out of this place" she said to herself feeling nervous from her dream.
