"Do you think she'll be okay?" Sora asked.
"She's a tough girl, she'll be fine." Cloud muttered.
"I think she's waking up!" Goofy said.
I rubbed my forehead and sat up. "Where's Cerberus?" I asked.
"We beat him." Sora said.
I grinned and continued rubbing my head.
"Does it hurt?" Sora asked when footsteps walked away.
I smiled and nodded. "But I'll be fine." I said and stood up.
"You fight really well." Sora said.
I chuckled and patted his head which I found out was spiky.
"You did great, but I think a few more months of training and we'll see how the infamous keyblade master is." I said and felt for a wall. I guessed Sora's hand grabbed mine.
"Where to Lady Rika?" He asked.
I knew he was smiling and grinned back. "Where you first found me, Sir Sora." I played and we strode off towards my favorite spot.
Later
"Now wait just one moment!" I yelled.
Sora, Donald and Goofy looked at me.
"I'm coming with you whether you like it or not!" I said.
"It's too dangerous. If we get into a fight, our enemy will have an advantage." Sora said. "Also, Donald won't allow it…" There was annoyance in Sora's voice.
"Please Sora… I can't live here forever… Everyday I think of my homeworld…" I directed my head to the ground.
"Okay then… but promise to stay out of sight?" He asked.
I smiled and nodded.
"Right, let's head for Traverse Town." Sora said.
I smiled and went off looking for Cloud. "Cloud? Cloud! Where are you?" I asked.
"What is it Rika?" Cloud said behind me.
I turned and smiled. "I'm leaving, Cloud! I'm going with Sora and his friends." I said.
"Well now, I told you that you would meet them." He said.
"Yes, and I'll be back, Cloud." I said.
"Yeah, I know. I'll be waiting for you then." He said.
I nodded. "I know that you and I will find the ones were looking for. Just don't give up." I said.
"Did I say anything about giving up?" He asked ruffling my hair.
I grabbed his hand and smiled again. "No, you didn't but still." I said and turned. "I better leave now… I can't make them wait any longer." I said.
"Right, Good luck on finding Hikari." He said.
I nodded and gave him a hug around the waist.
He patted my back and I ran off knowing the hallways in the back of my mind.
Traverse Town
I felt the walls in amazement. "Wow! These walls are very different from Olympus Coliseum." I said and Sora pulled me away from the walls and pushed me up a stair of stairs.
"Yeah…" He muttered and I laughed.
"Okay, Sora… I can walk on my own. I just need someone to be my eyes." I said.
We took hands and he led me off to where ever the trio needed to go.
"What's this? Kid's got a girlfriend!" A man's voice shouted suddenly.
"It's not what it looks like!" Sora shouted and let go of my hand.
I listened as Sora explained and the man named Cid waved his hand in front of me. "I can hear that…" I said.
"Dang it, the boy is telling the truth!" He shouted.
"Thanks…" I muttered looking at a random direction and crossing my arms.
