WaterAngel-Alyssa's 100 theme challenge

9. Almost

"Sora...why did you leave me again?"

Kairi cried bitterly in Mickey's jacket, despairing over recent events. Everyone had barely escaped The World That Never Was with their lives. Everyone, that is, except Sora and Riku.

Not one person, not Mickey, not Donald, not even Goofy, could wake Kairi from her state of despair. The tears will never stop flowing, she thought. As her heart poured out over the mouse-king, Kairi felt a tear fall from Mickey's eyes. Donald and Goofy noticed this, and sniffled.

All of those tear-jerking moments, all of the reunion and hugs…and they almost made it.

Almost.
