Chapter 4: Sleepover...

"So... how does it look?" Kairi asked as we entered her room. I looked around and everything was...well...girly... The walls were pink, there were stuffed animals on the bed, and there were so many pictures, most of them were of her, Sora, and Riku when they were younger.

"Well...I can't say it's surprising..." I answered as I looked around the room.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Kairi started to giggle.

"Exactly my point." I laughed as I sat down on her bed. "Thanks again for letting me stay for the night."

"Of course! I can't leave you outside for the night!"

"It wouldn't be the first time..." I whispered under my breath.

"Did you say something?" Kairi asked with a confused expression.

"Nothing!" I answered, witnessing what I said out loud. If people have read my last adventures, I slept outside with the flock (my family) a LOT of times. We practically live in the wilderness. "So anyways..." I quickly tried to change the subject. "Do you guys go to different worlds often?"

Kairi stared at me with concern for a second, then gave a reassuring smile. "Mostly Sora and Riku, either I stay here or I'm in trouble."

"Then... are you alright coming with us."

"Of course! Ever since we came back, I've been training every day!" She looked at me with confidence.

"But...what about your family? What about your school?"

"I already told my father, and I'm pretty sure Sora and Riku are doing the same. As for school, I'm a straight A student, so I can afford to miss a few days."

"What about Sora and Riku?"

Kairi stared at me for a second. "So anyways..." She used my subject-changing technique! "Are those wings of yours real?"

I jumped when she asked that. I forgot that she saw them. I stared at Kairi's with scared eyes. What if she thinks I'm a freak?

"If you don't want to talk about it, it's fine." Kairi stated.

I immediately remembered meeting my mother, even before I found out she was my mother. She found out about my wings because I was injured. Even though it was freakish, she still helped me. I get the same feeling of trust as my mother from Kairi.

"Yeah... They're real..." I whispered, my voice shaking.

"Really? That's so cool!" Kairi yelled in excitement. I looked at her. She seemed thrilled to know that I have wings. "Can you fly with them?"

"Y-Yeah. You're not shocked? Scared?" I asked. Usually people would freak out when they see another human with wings.

"Well, I am shocked, but I'm not scared. The fact that you have wings is amazing."

"Wow... thanks... I really appreciated that." I let out a big smile towards her.

Kairi leaned towards my ears. "Can you do me a favor tomorrow?" She whispered.

"Uh... Sure..."

"Where's Kairi and Max?" Sora asked sitting on the sand waiting. He looked behind him where Riku was leaning on the gummi ship. "They're late."

"I know. Just be patient. They'll be here." Riku looked up towards the sky and smiled. "Well would you look at that..."

Sora looked at Riku with a raised eyebrow. Then he looked at the direction he was looking. He felt his jaw drop at tremendous speed. "That is SO cool!"

"I can't believe I'm doing this..." I said outloud.

"What are you talking about? This is amazing!" Kairi yelled. I looked down and smiled. I still couldn't believe she talked me into flying, with her in hand, to the ship. But somehow her smile makes me happy. I looked down to see Sora waving at us. Kairi started to wave, but stopped when she noticed it was troubling me to hold her. I started to land towards them. Once we got to a safe distance, I let go of Kairi, who landed safely on her feet.

I quickly looked at my three new companions. Kairi is wearing a pink strapless mini-dress made up of three zippers as well as a white halter top underneath her mini-dress with a black hood. Sora is wearing a black and silver overjacket as well as black and red jumpsuit. Meanwhile Riku was laying by...something... wearing a yellow and white over jacket, with a black zip-up shirt, with really baggy pants. For some reason I feel like I'm in a videogame. Once I landed on my feet, I could feel Sora's stare piercing me.

"That was awesome!" He screamed. He stared at me with big blue eyes. "Can you make me fly next?"

"Sora! There's no time!" Riku yelled at him. "We have to leave soon!"

Sora pouted his lips. "Fine...(you're no fun Riku...)" He whispered.

I laughed as we were walking towards Riku. "Don't worry. I'll give you a ride when it's over." I looked at the thing behind Riku. It looked like a really small red airplane. The little white wings were barely visible. Let's just say, NASA wouldn't trust this to go to outer space. "Are you sure this thing can take us to another world?"

"Of course!" Sora yelled, with confidence. "This baby will take us across the galaxy!"

I'm shocked it can even float!" I thought to myself.

Sora jumped on top of the ship. "Alright everyone, let's move out!" He opened a hatch and jumped inside followed quickly by Riku and Kairi. I stared inside. It looked bigger than it looked outside, but not that much.

"Don't worry." Kairi looked at me with a smile. "It may not look like it, but Sora is a pretty good driver. We'll be safe."

I looked at Kairi, then Riku, then Sora. I took a deep breath and entered the tiny ship and took a seat.

"You guys ready?" Sora asked, but didn't wait for an answer. "Blast off in 3...2...1...BLAST OFF!"

I heard the engine behind us firing up. Then all of a sudden we started moving. The force of the movement made me stick to the seat. I quickly closed my eyes, seeing if I could find my happy place (of course I couldn't...).

Seconds later I heard Kairi calling my name. "Max! Max! Open your eyes! You have to see this."

I slowly opened my right eyes and my jaw dropped in amazement. Outside the window was probably the most beautiful thing that I have ever seen. Imagine a beautiful night sky surround you. There were so many stars. They looked... beautiful. I wished everyone could see this. Angel and Nudge would press their faces against the windows. Gazzy would be explaining everything to Iggy. Fang would probably just sit there and look outside.

Everyone... I promise to get you all back, no matter what...

Fang opened his eyes. He looked around. He was laying on a bed in the middle of a giant room. "Where the hell am I? Where is everyone?" He asked himself. "The last thing I remember... MAX!" Fang jumped out of bed and headed for the giant door across the room. He pushed the doors open and looked outside. The first things he saw were mountains all around him. He could see a small city behind the mountains. Then he looked down. He was at least 200 feet above the air, still no problem. He would just spread his wings and fly... "OW!" He screamed trying to open his wings. The pain was too much. Even if he could open them, the second he jumped off the edge, he would plummet to the ground.

"Ah...you're finally awake." Fang heard a voice. He turned to see a woman wearing a black robe and holding a staff. "We've been waiting for a while now."

"Who are you?" Fang started to back away.

The old lady smiled. "You can call me... Maleficent..."

To be continued...

Sorry not much happened still. I was going straight to Yen Sid's tower in this chapter, but I wanted to state that Max and Kairi will have a sister-type relationship. But next chapter, the true plot will be revealed. Expect it soon.
