Chapter 4:
( A Pirate Captain. )
The wind filled my sails, the ship rocked kindly on the soft waves. There, in the distance stood land, several islands. I yelled to my crew, "Get ready, and grabs your swords! Load the cannons, you monkeys! We're gonna raid the island again! Full speed ahead!"
( Kairi )
Sora entered and locked the door behind him. I looked at the clock, it only said 9:34. Sora looked at me, then placed one finger on his lips and whispered, "Don't say anything." I wanted to ask why, but something told me it would be better to trust Sora. Then I heard it. Was it a loud clap of thunder? No, it was a cannon! I opened my mouth to speak, but Sora again asked me to remain silent. Another cannon blast Was heard, followed by many more. After a long while, the cannons stopped their bombardment. Sora peeked out the window. I could easily tell he was afraid. But of what? Or maybe...for whom?
A hour had passed before Sora carefully unlocked and opened the door. I was right behind him. All was silent, but we both heard foot steps. I could hear Sora curse because they were on the island. Suddenly, I was hit over the head, and I fell to the ground. Before the world went dark, I heard someone yell. It was Sora.
I remembered being cold. My head was throbbing painfully. I felt warmth. I realized it was Sora. The world around me suddenly came into focus. I saw nothing but wood. We were tied together by our wrists and waists. Apparently, the attackers found it humorous if we were tied facing each other... Sora looked like he had been attacked by more than just one blow. He was cut all over and he was bruised badly. I felt sorry for him, as anger swelled up at our captors. I wanted to get them back, to take revenge, but, I was brought out of my anger when I noticed Sora shifted. He was waking, "Why do these pirates have to be so brutal..." I heard him mutter. He opened his eyes and noticed the way we had been tied. Red flooded his face, he was embarrassed, I couldn't blame him, he was tied to a teenager he barely knew and who was a gorgeous female. After regaining his natural colors, he said to me, "So Kairi, looks like we are tied together by a rope," I just watched. I had an idea where this was leading, maybe to a crude remark. Sadly, I was right. He followed with the remark of, "You really are lucky to be tied face-to-face with such a handsome man as me!" My face lit up, and I knew it. I knew he was doing that on purpose, just to see my remark, but I couldn't help it. He was right. He was handsome and ripped and I enjoyed it.
Before anything else was said and done, an iron hatch swung open. A teenager, with silver hair stepped forward. I noticed Sora's expression changed, he obviously didn't like this man. "Well, well, well, I have the honor of being the prisoner of Captain Riku, Such a pleasure." Sora remarked. This, to my horror, got Sora a slap from the "captain". As Sora fell, he tugged on the rope bringing me down with him. I hit my head and was once again out.
