Destiny Brought Us Together
Ch. 4: Blood and Tears
I looked at Riku again. He looked at me then looked over at Sora. I started to get really angry. Riku was enjoying it. I heard a moan and looked over at Sora. He was trying to up off. Riku started to look really angry. He walked over to Sora. He put the knife away and got out a gun. I got up and ran over. He was ready to shoot Sora. I pushed him away from Sora. Riku had no time to react and hit the wall really hard. I sat down next to Sora. I got my hands free and turned Sora so that he was laying on his back. I held his head up a little bit. I started crying. Sora had a huge gash near his stomach.
"Kairi, I'll be fine. Don't worry about me," Sora gasped.
"No, I'm not going to leave here without you," I replied.
"Kairi, listen to me. You have to go."
"No, I'm staying here with you."
"Kairi, you'll die if you stay here with me. Riku will kill you when he has the chance."
"Sora, I'm going to fight him for you. I'm not leaving you no matter how much you want me to."
I gently put Sora's head down and stood up. I saw the gun Riku had was close to me. I ran over and tried to pick it up. Riku quickly got it and I stopped in my tracks.
"You really think you can kill me," said Riku with a laugh in his voice.
"Why are you doing this?" I asked.
"Sora doesn't really love you. I don't want to to a see girl like you get emotionally hurt by a creep like Sora."
"He loves me. You're the one who doesn't truly love me like he does."
"I've loved you since the day I saw you."
"Well I don't like you at all."
"That's why I'm trying to kill Sora. If Sora's gone then you can't be with him."
Riku pointed the gun at Sora now. He was ready to shoot again. I ran over to Sora and covered him. Riku pulled the trigger just before I covered Sora. The bullet went in my back and I fell on top of Sora.
"Kairi, why?" asked Sora.
"I want you to live, Sora."
Riku was in shock. He threw the gun down and it landed close to me. I reached for it and handed it to Sora. Riku stood there still amazed. Sora hid the gun away.
"I hope you die Sora. If you don't, I'll be back with Ansem," said Riku in anger.
Riku ran out of the room. I started breathing heavier. Sora looked at me worried.
"Kairi, relax."
"I'm sorry, Sora. I don't think I'm going to make it."
"Kairi, you'll be fine. Turn around and let me see where it went."
"Sora, are you going to pull it out?"
"Yes but you have to let me see it."
"Will it hurt?"
"I'm looking to see how I'm going to get it out."
"What if you can't?"
"Don't worry, I will."
"What should I do?"
"Hold still and try not to squirm."
"It's going to hurt isn't it?"
"Yeah."
I felt his warm hand on my back. I tried not to scream but I could help it. I hurt so much. I felt his hand go away and looked at him. He was now holding the bullet in his hand. My breathing stopped for a second. Sora threw it somewhere and gently hugged me. I started crying from the pain. I buried my face in my hands and Sora gently pulled me into his chest. As he stood up he pulled me up with him. he then guided me out of the room. It wasn't that long of a walk to my house. He took me up to my room and sat me down on the bed. He went into the bathroom and brought out a bunch of bandages. Sora took care of my cheeks and my back with the utmost care. Then he took care of his stomach. I took the remaining bandages back into the bathroom. I started to walk out of the room so that he could sleep on my bed but he quickly ran over to me at the door. He picked me up and looked down at me smiling. I started laughing and he spun me around and gently rested me on my bed.
