Chapter 3 Connected Hearts

Kairi's POV

One Hour Later

I went to my room...packed up my things...and wrote two messages in bottles.

I put the first bottle on my dad's bed before kissing his forehead.

"I'll be back soon dad", I whispered. "I promise. I love you."

Ten Minutes Later

I quietly climbed into Riku's room through his window.

There was a large palm tree outside his window and he never locked it.

I put the second bottle on his bed...then...I kissed his forehead.

"I'll be back soon Riku", I whispered. "With Sora. I promise."

With that I walked to Riku's window.

Before leaving...I turned around and looked at him one more time.

Then...I left.

Ten Minutes Later

I ran to the beach...then I realized something.

Wait a minute? How am I even going to get off the island?!

I then started thinking...and my mind came to Corridors of Darkness. [Kingdom Hearts Extra: For those who don't remember, Corridors of Darkness are the portals the Organization members use to get around.]

If there's a dark version of it...then maybe there's a light version as well? [Kingdom Hearts Extra: PS, this is my own piece of lore, not something actually from the series.]

With that I summoned my Keyblade.

I pointed it in front of me...and took a deep breath.

Please work.

With that...I shot light right in front of me.

And...a portal made of light appeared.

"It worked", I said happily.

I then turned and looked at my home one last time.

Then...I walked through the portal.

...

I walked out of the portal...and smiled.

I was at Master Yen Sid's tower!

"It worked", I said happily.

With that...I ran into the tower.

Ten Minutes Later

I got to the door of Master Yen Sid's office and knocked on it.

"Master Yen Sid", I greeted. "It's Kairi."

"Come in", I heard Master Yen Sid say.

With that I walked into the office and bowed my head down.

"Master", I greeted.

"Hello Kairi", Master Yen Sid greeted. "I know why you are here."

"You do", I asked looking up.

"I do", Master Yen Sid replied. "You are going to look for Sora."

"How did you..."

"It's not like it's that much of a surprise", Yen Sid stated. "Many people know how much he means to you."

With that...I put my hand on my heart.

"Master", I started. "Please tell me. Do you think Sora is somewhere out there?"

"To be honest", Master Yen Sid started. "I have no idea what has happened to Sora."

With that I looked down sadly.

"But", Master Yen Sid said causing me to look up. "I do believe that no heart is ever truly lost. Plus, because of how much you mean to each other, your and Sora's hearts are connected. Use that connection...and you two will be together again."

With that...I smiled.

Then I bowed my head down to Master Yen Sid again.

"Thank you Master."

"And one more thing", Master Yen Sid added.

With that I looked up...and he made a pink suitcase appear on his desk.

"A new garment" he revealed. "To protect you on your journey."

With that I smiled before taking the suitcase.

I then looked at Master Yen Sid...who's eyes were closed.

Then...he said this.

"May your heart be your guiding key." [Kingdom Hearts Extra: That's a reference to KH3.]

I smiled before turning around.

Wherever you are Sora...wait for me. I'm coming.

HotXbun: So Kairi's journey begins.

Challenge: Tell me what Disney world you would like Kairi to visit first.

My Answer: I have an idea. But I want to hear from you guys.
