Declaimer: "Okay I do not own anything from the Kingdom Hearts series, or it's awesome characters! Disney and Squarenix does…..times like these I want to cry"
Kiome-Yasha: "Hey Kiome-Yasha here on another update on Nobodies could feel Passion too, well my summer in PR has come to an end and now I'm home spending the rest of my summer vacation here. And to Kintora, yes Rinoa and Squall is Sora's biological parents. I'm just tired of the whole cliché Cloud and Aeris being his parent gig, plus the fact that I hate that couple with a passion. And yes there is another lemon scene coming soon after the next few chapters ahead, but I'm debating right now on which couple, for now there is a couple I like to do. You'll find out eventually, it's a couple that's been bugging me for awhile. Well here's chapter 9."
Chapter 9 The Reunion
Namine woke up straight away the next day. She could smell the awakening traditional smell of breakfast in the morning. Namine got up from the bed inside the room her and Roxas had shared and made a groggy way to the bathroom.
She opened the bathroom door to see Kairi brushing her hair. Kairi looked at Namine and gave her a smile, "I'm almost done, so you can use the bathroom then Namine." Namine nodded standing there as she waited for Kairi to finish up.
Kairi brushed away the last knot in her hair away before leaving the bathroom so Namine can use it.
When Namine picked up an extra sample toothbrush out of the cup Kairi stepped in the bathroom again. Namine looked at Kairi, "What's wrong?" Kairi replied, "I just wanted to tell you that after breakfast we're leaving to Radiant Garden right away." Namine nodded understanding.
After putting toothpaste on her brush Namine began to brush her teeth . While she was brushing she noticed Kairi's presents still there by the door with a worry, sullen expression on her face. Namine finished up brushing her teeth and wiped her mouth before asking, "Is there something else you wanted to tell me Kairi?"
Kairi looked up at Namine rather startled. She then gave a blank expression again, "Namine are you sure you want to go through with this?" Namine gave Kairi a confused look. Kairi added more in her thoughts seeing Namine didn't understand what she was talking about, "I mean being out on your own, your weak enough as it is to even walk, you can't hold this disguise forever that you can hold on in your current state."
Kairi eyes became blurry from tears, "Your like the little sister I never had, one I want to take care of. I don't want to lose you Namine, if anything your the only family I have left. My Grandmother and parents died when the Heartless attacked our home. When I was washed ashore here in Destiny Island I was adopted by the Mayor of the town. Even though I was adopted and reclaimed a new family I was still alone living on my own in one big house." Kairi out of love and concern for Namine embraced her.
Namine was shock from Kairi's words and began to cry herself. Namine out of consciousness of Kairi's hug, hugged her back rubbing her back with her hand. Namine spoke in a whisper, "Kairi, I'll be fine. I want to find Roxas, I love him. You would do the same for Sora. I know because I'm you're opposite. And I'm happy that you think of me as a sister, I'm truly honored. Knowing that you feel that way about me makes me feel more of a real person than a Nobody."
Namine broke the embrace smiling at Kairi. Kairi wiped the tears away from her eyes, Namine doing the same with hers. Soon the two of them heard sniffling by the door. They turned towards the entrance of the bathroom seeing Sora sniffling up tears in his eyes. Namine and Kairi looked at Sora as if he had two heads.
Sora then opening up his arms, making Namine and Kairi jump from his sudden outburst movement, "'Sob' Give me a hug you guys!" Sora then embraced both Kairi and Namine making their expressions blank and unmoving. Sora continued to cry miserably, "I love you girls 'sob' such sisterly love!"
That's when Riku passed by as he was descending up the stairs and saw the affectionate scene. Riku quirked an eyebrow, "I'm not even going to ask, but breakfast is ready, and the sooner we can eat the sooner we can leave." Sora looked at Riku with a scolding look, "Riku, don't you see this is a crucial time for Namine and Kairi! Why must you be so insensitive?"
Riku pointed his index finger at Sora in a lazy way, "One Sora your acting gay, and two that's why I'm telling to HURRY UP AND EAT, so we can help Namine anyway we can. You silly naïve little boy." Riku then started to head back down to the kitchen.
Sora shook off his tears and yelled back, "Hey Riku you didn't have to call me gay or a silly naive little boy! Riku are you listening to me you insensitive prick?" Sora then went on pursuit for Riku throwing his fists in the air while running downstairs for the silver haired teenage boy.
Rinoa hearing Sora's foul language yelled out, "Sora what did you say in that dirty mouth of yours!" Sora's eyes bugged out, "I didn't say anything Mommy, please don't hurt me!" Namine and Kairi upstairs in the bathroom couldn't help, but to giggle at Sora's and Riku's silly rivalry.
Kairi looked at Namine seeing that their tears have dried up, "Should we get ready and head downstairs?" Namine nodded, "Yeah, we need to hurry." Namine and Kairi both went into their own respectful rooms and started getting dress. They both stepped out in the same time, Kairi still wearing her pink dress, but since it was so short she considered it as a shirt today, putting on regular long blue jeans in the process, while Namine she wore a gray shirt with a heart on it that had braded thorns on top of it, making it bleed while wearing torn up long jeans.
They both headed downstairs seeing Riku and Sora nowhere in sight. Kairi looked up at Rinoa and asked, "Where's Riku and Sora?" Rinoa sighed with a smile, "Those two competitive boys already finished eating and are now outside getting what I believe the Gummi ship ready for our departure." Kairi and Namine nodded as they sat down around the table.
Rinoa came around giving them baked pancakes, and sausages on a plate and two glass of orange juice.
Namine looked up at Kairi with concern. Kairi asked, "What's wrong Namine?" Namine looked down at her half eaten food, "I know we have to go, but do you think we can say good-bye to Wakka, Tidus, and Selphie first?" Kairi looked up at Rinoa who had a wide smile before looking down at Namine, "Of course Namine! We'll go see them as soon as we finish eating." Namine nodded with a smile before eating again.
Soon as they were done Riku and Sora had come back. Straight away Kairi told them their change of plans, "You guys, Namine wants to go and say good-bye to Tidus, Wakka, and Selphie before we go." Sora slumped, "Aw just when I was all excited to go!" Riku crossed his arms, "Now who's the insensitive prick?" Sora was about to respond, but stopped as he saw a glimpse of Rinoa's glare.
Sora looked at Namine with a tiresome look, "Sure Namine, we can go see them." Riku then added uncrossing his arms, "But make it quick." Riku looked at Kairi, "Kairi you go with her while we get things packed and settled in the Gummi ship. Rinoa ma'am, could you help me and Sora out?" Rinoa nodded as the three of them headed out.
Kairi and Namine cleaned off the table and kitchen before heading outside. Kairi answered while the two of them walked down the sandy road, "Today is Saturday, so the three of them are probably out by the shore docks heading to Destiny Island. Wakka and Tidus likes to train blitzball there, and Selphie well she likes to tag along with them to say how much they suck." Namine nodded as they were near up the hill.
They got to the top to see Wakka, Tidus, and Selphie getting the boats ready to leave just like Kairi had said. Kairi yelled out as she put her hands between her mouth, "Hey guys wait!" The three of them simultaneously looked up at Kairi and Namine.
Selphie waved with a grin, "Hey Namine, Kairi!" Wakka saluted them a hello while Tidus grinned, waving at them. Namine and Kairi walked towards them going around the beach wooden small fence and to the open shore docks.
Selphie replied as they walked halfway, "We were about to go to Destiny Island, want to come?" Namine and Kairi shook their heads. Namine finally spoke, "We came to say good-bye." Wakka replied in shock, "Good-bye? What for?" Kairi answered with a small smile, "I'm sure Sora told you about our adventures before in the outside world." They all nodded.
Namine then stepped in, "We believe another crisis is at foot and Roxas might be a part of it." Selphie sprang in realization, "That's why he disappeared!" Namine and Kairi nodded.
Wakka scratched the back of his head, "Ya sure you got to go out yonder after this trouble?" Namine nodded with a smile, "I have to find Roxas, I need to know what's going on." Tidus cut in with a look of hope in his eyes, "I'm guessing we can't come with you?" Kairi shook her head, "I'm sorry you guys, but you have to stay here. In case something happens you guys are the only ones strong enough to protect Destiny Island."
Tidus stepped in with a determine look, "Don't worry Kairi we will." Selphie asked though out of concern, "But how are we able to make contact with you guys?" Namine and Kairi pondered until Namine spoke, "You can use the Gummi radio at Riku's house!" Kairi looked at Namine with concern before agreeing with a smile, "Yeah, you can make contact with us that way."
They both looked at the three grown teenagers who had a confused expression. Wakka spoke, "A Gummi what?" "The ship that we have to be boarding now." They were cut off, turning around to see Riku.
Riku explained, "The Gummi ship is a ship that allows us to travel through the stars and worlds outside of our islands. I have a Gummi radio at home in case of an emergency to contact the King at Disney Kingdom. You guys can call us from there if trouble comes."
The three of them nodded spotting the Gummi ship that flew slightly overhead on the shore breaking up the water under it, seeing Sora and Rinoa inside it.
Tidus said in amazement, "So that's a Gummi Wakka patted Tidus on the head in a brotherly fashion, "Alright man! We'll call you guys if anything wrong comes up, but ya gotta make sure you come back safe ya."
Namine stepped up to Wakka giving him a gentle touch on his right bicep, "Don't worry Wakka we will." Selphie jumped in hugging Namine, "I hope you find Roxas Namine." Namine hugged Selphie back, "I hope so too." Namine gave a sad expression knowing the fact that Selphie, Wakka, and Tidus didn't know about her condition. Tears almost sprang up knowing this might be the last time she ever sees them. She tightens her embrace around Selphie more.
Kairi gave a soft nudge at Tidus and Wakka signaling them to join the embrace. Wakka scratched the back of his head while Tidus blush before embracing Namine and Selphie with a big hug. Riku sighed in annoyance as he heard someone sniffling up tears inside the Gummi ship knowing one person who would be a total sap right now.
The four teenagers broke away from their hug, Namine trying to hide her tears. Wakka commented seeing Namine's wet face, "Hey don't cry Namine, it's not like we won't see each other again ya?" Namine nodded, "Of course." Kairi's face fell hearing Namine's words, she knew why she was crying.
Namine bowed a good-bye at the three before heading towards the Gummi ship. Kairi waved good-bye as Riku started walking ahead raising his left hand up as his departing words. The three of them got on board the Gummi ship, all of them waving good-bye to Tidus, Selphie, and Wakka.
The gust of wind that the Gummi ship created blew the sand up as it took off upwards to the sky until Wakka, Tidus, and Selphie couldn't see them anymore.
Selphie asked Wakka with a wry look, "We'll see them again….. we'll see Namine and Roxas again right?" Selphie turned to Wakka who shrugged, "I hope so Selphie." Tidus cut in with an annoyed look of their behavior, "Come on you guys of course we will! Now come on, let's go to Destiny Island already! They know what they're doing, besides the day isn't getting any younger."
Wakka and Selphie agreed with a nod and smile as they got the ropes off the boats and headed towards Destiny Island with no care in the world.
Out in the galaxy Namine and the others were safely inside the Gummi ship drifting pass the stars heading towards Radiant Garden. That's when Rinoa realized something.
Rinoa looked at Sora, "Sora honey, where are we going again?" Sora looked back at his Mother from the steering wheel, "Where heading towards Radiant Garden, it used to be called Hollow Bastion when the Heartless took over, but now that it's safe it went back to it's original name Radiant Garden." Rinoa stood silent the name making her mute.
Sora noticed his Mother's silence and asked, "Mom something wrong?" Rinoa whispered, "It can't be…." Sora asked louder in concern, "Mom?" Rinoa jumped back and replied, "It's nothing Sora."
Riku then kicked his feet on the back of Sora's chair, making Sora cough from irritation from the impact. Riku folded his hands behind his head, "Well I'm pressing my button on snooze. So tell me when we get there Keyblade Dirtbag." Sora mumbled under his breath of 'asshole' and 'dickhead' so his Mother wouldn't hear.
Kairi sat next to Namine. Kairi looked at Namine who took out her sketch book and started to draw with an endless look on her face. Kairi peeked over the drawing to see it coming out as Roxas. Kairi placed her hand over Namine's hand. Namine looked up at Kairi slowly.
Kairi smiled brightly, "Don't worry we'll find him and we'll fix all of this. I promise Namine. Plus I promise to beat the crap out of Roxas when this is all finished as well." Namine chuckled, "Thanks Kairi."
Rinoa looked back at the two twin girls, "You should get some rest you two. I think this might take awhile." Namine looked over at Riku who was fast asleep. Kairi asked ahead at Sora, "Sora you going to be okay with us asleep and you driving?" Sora nodded, "Don't worry Kairi! I could handle this without supervision." Kairi crossed her chest, "That's what I'm afraid of."
Rinoa patted Kairi's shoulder, "Don't worry Kairi. I'll stay up to keep a watchful eye on him." Kairi nodded knowing it was alright if Rinoa was going to watch over Sora and make sure he didn't do anything stupid. Kairi remembered the stories she heard from Donald when he said him and Goofy had to keep an eye on Sora driving the Gummi ship and not crash them into a huge meteorite. Kairi settled down on the chair resting against it as well as Namine doing the same.
Riku though with his eyes still closed spoke, "There's pillows in the compartments to your right." Namine opened the compartment to see a few white fluffy pillows. Namine turned to Riku with concern, "What about you?" Riku answered, "I could manage." He softly kicked the back of Sora's chair again making Sora mumble more foul words towards the sliver hair teenager.
Kairi reassured Namine, "It's okay Namine. Riku could manage." Namine nodded as she rested her head on the pillow as she placed it behind the chair. Kairi did the same falling asleep instantly.
Rinoa sat beside Sora watching the stars outside the window as they pass by them. Sora took notice that his three friends were fast asleep and decided to shut off the lights inside the Gummi ship leaving the only light coming from the stars outside the ship's glass sustained windows and the colorful blinking lights on the control panels.
Sora continued his steady pace as he made his way towards Radiant Garden…his Mother Rinoa of course keeping a close eye on him.
Back at the World that Never was as they walk down the long white halls of the Nobodies castle, Xemnas began explaining his reason on why he couldn't bring back the red headed member of Organization XIII.
Xemnas crossed his hands behind the end of his back, "You see I couldn't simply bring back Axel because of his heart." Roxas sighed out of irritation rubbing his temples, "Yeah I got that you Jackass, but I want to know is how and why?" Roxas glared up at Xemnas as they continued walking down the white blinding halls.
Xemnas couldn't help, but chuckle at Roxas's aggressive attitude, "Roxas you remember when Axel fell to his demise?" Roxas looked down at the floor with guilt, nodding to confirm his answer that he did remember the death of his dear friend…his first ever.
Xemnas continued, looking ahead with a blank expression, "Axel died with a feeling like none of us ever had." Roxas listened inattentively. Xemnas took a large step forward, "He died knowing the feeling and heart of Friendship, friendship that he developed with you I believe. That's why he felt like he had a heart, he cared and protected you like a little brother it would seem." Roxas asked confused with a puzzling expression, "But how could he end up having a heart?"
Xemnas replied, "That I'm not too sure of, but somehow the desire to protect the one you care for and knowing how to redefine those feelings of the heart somehow triggered something for Axel that made him human in the end before his death. That's why I couldn't bring him back, he wasn't a Nobody anymore…"
Roxas raised his right eyebrow in suspicion, "That's how Axel wouldn't allow you to bring him back?" Xemnas looked over at Roxas from his broad shoulders, "It seems like he feels like a Somebody if he remains dead, knowing he died with a desire and purpose on protecting his friends inside his delusional heart." Roxas shouted from the insult, "Axel wasn't delusional! He had a heart! It may have been lost when he became a Nobody, but he remembered how it felt to have one, he didn't lose it! Inside he still had his light!" Roxas stormed off ahead a bit before turning around slightly to Xemnas, "Just because you forgot how to have a heart doesn't mean the rest of us did."
Roxas then flicked his fingers to make a dark portal appear. He looked back at an expressionless Xemnas before walking through the portal leading him to his room.
Xemnas snickered as Roxas disappeared through the black portal making the dimension enclose in with him, "That may be true Roxas, but you too will end up like me, knowing nothing, but darkness residing in your so called 'heart'." With that said Xemnas turned around heading for the Nobody's libratory.
Gently in the dark galaxy between light and darkness one could hear a boy singing a song out loud inside a Gummi ship.
Sora song aloud cheerfully, "Row, row, row your boat gently down the stream. Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily life is, but a dream…row, row, row your…." "SHUT THE HELL UP!" came from an angry Riku with blood shot eyes.
Namine and Kairi had their ears plugged with their hands along with Rinoa. Sora's singing was getting irritating, especially singing a repeating verse song like 'Row, row, row your boat'.
Sora just glared at Riku before revealing a evil smirk, "I know a song that gets on everybody's nerves, everybody's nerves, everybody's nerves. I know a song that gets on everybody's nerves and this is how it goes…I know a song that OUCH!" Riku had hit Sora across the head with a shoe given by his mother Rinoa.
Sora scratched the back of his head in pain, looking back at his Mother and friends, all of them glaring at him fiercely. Sora had little form of tears at the side of his eyes, trying to hold them back.
Sora spoke up in a whining tone, "You didn't have to hit me like that you know, that really hurt." Riku shrugged, "Didn't hurt me, but your singing did." Sora grumbled as he grabbed tight onto the steering wheel, "Are we there yet?"
Kairi replied smugly, "I don't know, you tell me? YOUR driving." Sora looked down at the radar to see if he could spot Radiant Garden ahead. Happily he did as a wide smile appeared over his face.
Sora pointed his index finger ahead to show the others, "Radiant Garden is right ahead. I'm going to contact Leon from the Gummi ship communicator." They all nodded as Sora grabbed on to the speaker, "This is Keyblade Master over to Broody Leon and the Restoration Committee can you hear me? Over. Hehehe I always wanted to do that." Rinoa along with Riku, Kairi, and Namine sighed from Sora's goofy behavior.
They started to have a scratchy respond at the other end, but was to hard to tell who's voice it was, but it spoke anyway, "This is Radiant Garden's radio Gummi station requesting you to land Keyblade Master. Over." Sora nodded as he hung up the speaker and started descending towards the world structure of Radiant Garden.
They breeze right through the atmosphere coming to a landing spot near the Radiant Garden Laboratory of Professor Ansem. At the landing sight they spotted Goofy, Donald, and King Mickey with his loyal dog Pluto.
Sora turned off the Gummi ship's engine from the ignition and pressed the lid glass button of the Gummi ship allowing everyone to step out. King Mickey approached them with a wide smile.
As soon as Sora stepped out of the ship though Goofy, and Donald tackled him to the ground. Sora gave a 'humph' sound landing face back to the ground from the impact. Donald lifted himself up along with Goofy, "Sora we missed you!" Goofy gave a laugh, "Hey yuck, we sure miss having you around!" Sora tried to sit up replying with a grin, "I miss you guys too! It's been awhile."
King Mickey along with the rest smiled with the small reunion. King Mickey took a glance at Namine sensing the lack of energy within in her. Mickey grabbed hold of Namine's hand with a gentle nudge startling her.
Namine looked down at the mouse King who had a concern expression, "Your Namine I take?" Namine nodded without hesitation. King Mickey let go of Namine's hand, "Your losing energy of light from your body fast. Why? I still have yet to understand, but trust me Namine we will find the answer." That's when Jiminy Cricket appeared over Namine's shoulder, making her gasp from his sudden appearance.
Jiminy reassured the King along with everyone else, "I'm sure if we can't find all the answers here we can always visit Yen Sid on what's going on between the worlds and how the darkness might affect them." King Mickey nodded, "Yeah, my teacher Yen Sid might be able to help with a lot about the Heartless movements."
While everyone was getting acquainted again Rinoa looked back and forth of the area she was thrown in. Sora noticed his Mother's distant stare around the place, "Mom you okay? I know it feels weird being in a world you never been before considering your whole life you've been stuck on an island, but…Mom?" Rinoa looked closely at the building in front of her, "I…I've been here before. This place…." Losing her words, Rinoa along with the others turned towards the short distant stairs that lead to Ansem's laboratory after hearing someone climbing up from them.
Rinoa held on to her breath as she saw the Restoration Committee leader Leon climb up the stairs. Leon had his hands in his pockets and head bend down as he spoke lowly, "You guys finally made it. Sure took you long enough." Leon finally looked up as his eyes practically flew out of him when they had landed on Rinoa.
Leon stuttered trying to find his words, "Ri…Rinoa?" Sora asked surprise, "You know my Mother Leon?" Rinoa spoke as she took one step forward, "Squall?" Soon Rinoa sprinted forward embracing Leon tightly around the neck. Sora and the others shock from the affectionate embrace. Leon who had an astonish look embraced Rinoa right away.
Leon pulled Rinoa back seeing tears running down her face, "Rinoa, but how?" Rinoa shook her head, "It's a long story Squall." Sora asked confused, "Squall?" Leon turned to Sora and the others forgetting they were there.
Leon looked down at Rinoa, "Care to explain to us?" Rinoa nodded, "Yes, it's going to be a long story though, on how things came to be of me ending up on Destiny Island, but first there's something I must to you Squall…. and Sora." Sora and Squall looked at Rinoa giving her their full intention.
Rinoa stepped back scratching her arm with her hand nervously, "Let me first say this….Squall….Sora is your son and Sora Squall AKA Leon I suppose is your Father…" Everyone gasped. Sora literally passing out on the floor while Leon started to gag and cough violently….soon passing out as well.
Xemnas entered inside the Nobody's laboratory through the slide doors. He looked across the room and spotted Vexen. He walked up to Vexen expected to see some results.
Vexen looked at Xemnas and spoke in his scratchy scientific voice, "It would seem you explained to Roxas about Axel." Xemnas nodded before asking quickly, "So how are things?" Vexen shook his head, "Kingdom Hearts is badly damaged as we thought from the result of your battle against the Keyblade Master and his friends, but that only means good news for us." Xemnas chuckled lightly, "Yes, it does."
Soon Saix came into the room through a dark portal, "Superior I have found new Human like Nobody candidates that would prove useful and powerful in the Organization XII." Xemnas grinned wickedly, "Perfect send them in."
Kiome-Yasha: "Again this Chapter should have been longer then it originally is, but too much is going inside my head that is making this story longer than it was originally plan. So to cut my ideas down I decided to vote on for cliffhangers to appear in the chapters thanks to my Boyfriend who came up with the idea and reviewed by the way. So don't come after me with pitchforks for leaving you hanging with cliffhangers like this chapter for example, chase General Cloud. Right now if I did make this chapter longer it would have been 24 pages and it would have taken me forever to update. So which do you rather prefer, a cliffhanger, or a long waited update. I prefer cliffhanger. Well until next time! Review or else you'll make Sora cry, like he hasn't already done that in the chapter already lol."
