Rina's POV:

"Here you can go ahead and take the room right across from Riku." Princess Tira addressed me. It was so nice of her to let me come. I really want to see what worlds are out there besides Radiant Garden. Besides I knew if I asked Leon, he would have immediately have said no.

"Who's Riku again?" I asked a bit shyly. Her Highness just shook her head with laughter. "He's the taller one." Oh yeah that's right…the guy with the silver hair and gorgeous eyes. The one with the amazing muscles and that sexy voice…oh my god what am I saying? I need to stop. I don't have time to be thinking about boys! "Oh okay…" I managed to say without blushing.

Princess Tira left to let me get more acquainted with my surroundings. My room, much like the others I'm sure, was very small consisting of a twin size bed, a small dresser, and to the corner of the room, a small personal bathroom. There was also one small window by the bed and if you looked out of it you would see nothing but intergalactic space. I walked over to my bed and decided to sit on it. I kept looking around at the small room thinking "Is this really happening?"

Suddenly I heard a knock at the door. I wonder who that could be. Probably the Princess. I walked over and opened the door to my surprise, it was Riku. He was leaning against the wall, thinking he was so cool. Ha please. "Looks like we are going to be sharing the same quarters of the ship." A smirk was on his face. I couldn't help but blush a little, I think he noticed it too since he began to chuckle a bit. "What the hell is so funny?" I retorted back at him. His face seemed shocked. Yeah I have a bit of a temper. Can't help it though. I refuse to be vulnerable and weak. And I intend to stay like that. For Princess Tira's sake. She doesn't need a weakling around her. She needs someone strong. I want to be like Yuna, Rikku and Paine one day. Being able to protect her with my life. She is my best friend after all, if only she could remember…

"We are going to get along so well." Riku glanced down at me then took off. I wonder what he meant by that. "Looks like you two are off to a good start." Her Highness said from behind me. "Your Highness." I bowed down to her in respect. She placed a calm hand on my shoulder. "You know since we aren't anywhere near 'my kingdom' you don't have to be so formal. I'm still not used to it. Why don't you just call me Tira?" A warm smile was on her face. "Okay your High-…um I mean Tira." Tira took me by the hand as we started walking towards the cockpit of the ship. "Come on, we are going to see which world we are going to be visiting."


Third Person POV

Everyone had gathered in the front part of the gummi ship, where there was a big map mounted on the wall. It had certain coordinates that were flashing. It reminded them of the game Battleship. Riku pointed at the little red dot that was moving. "This is where we are right now." His fingers traced down to the coordinate in front of the red dot. "And this is where we are heading to first." Everyone looked at it in response. "Which world is that?" Sora asked. Riku smirked a bit and replied "It's a word known as Persia."

Everyone decided to all get a good night's rest, so they all would have time to recover from their time in Radiant Garden. All left except Riku and Tira. "You okay?" She slowly asked. He looked up at her with his aqua eyes. "Yeah I'm fine" he murmured. "I'm just thinking what's to expect out of this journey." Tira placed her finger up to her lips and thought to herself. "Hmm…you sure you're thinking about that?" a light laugh slipped from her mouth. "What do you mean by that?" he let out in response. Tira walked over to his side and whispered. "You sure you're not thinking about Ri-na? I saw how you looked at her earlier when you were talking to her." Riku shook his head. "No…I-I'm not…I told you I feel like I'm meant to be alone." His head drops down.


Riku's POV

"And I said not to think like that." Tira said to me before she went to her room. "Maybe she is right?" But I don't have time to worry about girls. I need to be strong for my friends. I've always been the strong one. I want to stay strong like that. I can't become weak just because there is yet another cute girl that's going to be on this journey with us. "What am I thinking?"

I head back to my room when I overheard noises coming from Rina's room. "Ha! Ya! Ha!" What was she doing? I slipped a peek into her door, full of curiosity, and to my surprise Rina was throwing swings with her shakrams. Her leg flew up in the air as she did one of the most graceful kicks I've seen. What's up with these girls from Radiant Garden and being graceful? Hmm doesn't matter since I've already gotten my butt kicked once. I'm pretty sure if Rina wanted to, she could as well. I smiled and closed the door behind me.

I couldn't sleep at all. Restless as I was, I tossed and turned in that small bed of mine. I kept thinking about what Tira told me when we first arrived in Radiant Garden. I still couldn't get it through my head that Sora and Kairi kissed. Why did it have to happen when I was heading towards the kitchen? I knew those two had a thing for another, but still I wish I didn't have to see that. But overall I'm happy for my friends. They deserve one another and I deserve to be alone. I've wandered in the darkness alone, so why not the light as well. I told you not to think like that! Tira's voice was in my head. A small smile was now on my face as I slowly close my eyes and began to sleep.


Sora's POV

Kairi was all I could think about. Her smile, eyes, beautiful hair, and now her luscious lips. I still can't believe I did that. I feel like the luckiest guys ever. "That makes two of us." It was Roxas speaking to me in my head. "Roxas, is that how you felt after the first time you kissed Tira?" It grew quiet for a minute. Hmm maybe I shouldn't have brought Tira up. Roxas seems to get emotional about it but can't blame him. I would feel the same way if I were away from Kairi for a year. Oh wait…I do know how that feels. I waited for Roxas' response but there was none. I decided to go to sleep; tomorrow was going to be a big day after all.

Sora's Dreams

Sora found himself in the familiar setting of Twilight Town. He was now in the center of the train station.

"You're so cute when you're nervous." He looks over to see Roxas holding Tira close to him. You could clearly see that Tira was as red as Kairi's hair. Roxas placed his finger underneath her chin and brought Tira's face closer to her. He gently kisses her lips, while Tira tightened her grip on him. Sora blushed a bit since he thought it was cute, when he realized that he was in a flashback, one of Roxas' flashbacks. After they kissed, Roxas looked down at the girl of his dreams and said to her "Tira…no matter what I'll always be with you." Roxas takes notice of Sora and smiles "Does that answer your question?" He nods his head yes, and then the dream was now to an end.


Kairi's POV

"So Sora actually kissed me." I smiled at this thought. My dreams had come true. I never thought this day would come. The day I got to tell Sora that I love him. I'm glad that now we can be together. And once this journey is over, we can return back to the Island and continue to be together.

I heard footsteps and they were loud and coming closer. Maybe it's Bentley? I'm pretty sure it was him. Tira likes to let him out sometimes. They stopped in front of my door. I lay there frozen on my bed. It was night time, anything could happen you know. My door slowly began to open. I was seriously getting creped out. "Bentley?" I whispered. "Oh so I guess I'm Bentley now?" it was Sora, my Sora. He came in as he did his cute little laugh that I loved. I sat up in my bed. "Sora, what are you doing up still?" He came closer to me. My heart began to pump faster and faster until he knelt down and his face was just inches away from mine.

"I had a dream, and well…" Before he could finish his sentence he brought his lips to mine. It was happening again. He's kissing me again, and I love every minute of it. My hands got lost in his spiky hair while he gently caressed my face. I could feel my face getting hotter every second. When he pulled back, he whispered "I don't want to lose you ever again. I'll always be with you." Sora began to head towards the door again. He turned to me and smiled that goofy but adorable grin of his. "Goodnight my sweet Kairi." I blush a little. "Goodnight." I was now alone in my room again. I thought about what he said to me. I'll always be with you. Those were the same words that Roxas told Tira, right? Then I thought about Tira. How she and Roxas complete each other even though they aren't around each other no more. Then I thought about how I kind of snapped at Sora about him being in the same bed with Tira.

It was all making sense to me. That wasn't Sora, it was Roxas. Sora was doing a favor. He was allowing them to be together. Now I felt bad, I have to apologize to her. She did overhear our conversation after all. Ugh…I feel like a horrible person. All she wants is happiness. She gets that in Roxas and they can only be together when Sora lets him take control of his body. I slowly get up from my bed, making my way to the door. "I have to tell her I'm sorry."


Tira's POV

"Princess Tira..." I still couldn't believe it. I'm a princess, and my father is Ansem the Wise. Why does that name sound familiar? Why can't I remember anything from before Twilight Town? My thoughts were soon interrupted by a knock on my door. It was Kairi. She looked upset. "What's wrong Kairi?" I stood up and walked over to her. Her arms soon flew across me as she embraced me in a hug. "I'm so sorry Tira. Very sorry for thinking that you and Sora had something going on." I stepped back and looked straight into her blue eyes. "There's no need to be sorry, Kairi you've always had Sora. In his memories there were a lot of you. I can understand you for getting upset, hell I would have too if I were in your shoes, but always know that Sora is yours and only yours. You guys were meant to be." I smiled at her and she did the same. "Just like you and Roxas." she responded back. My heart fluttered at the sound of his name. Only his name could do that to me. She began to head back to her room. And I was back to the clutter of thoughts in my head, they shot all to Roxas. I reached over and picked up the charm he gave to me.

Tira no matter what I'll always be with you.

I decided that since I couldn't sleep that I would begin to do a little research on these "Nobodies". And figure out why my Roxas was one of them. Soon I found myself typing endlessly on the main computer found in the central part of the gummi ship.

I stared blankly at the screen in front of me. The words I looked at made my heart sank; Nobodies are creatures that don't have hearts. It's the one thing they want the most, to become whole again. So does that mean Roxas doesn't have a heart? Next was a page full of information about a group of Nobodies called Organization XIII.

Xemnas, Xigbar, Xaldin, Vexen, Lexaeus, Zexion, Saix, Axel, Demyx, Luxord, Marluxia, Larxene…

My eyes stopped at the last name listed; Roxas. I didn't want to believe what I saw so I decided to ask the others about it when they woke up. Some of those names sound familiar. I know for a fact that Xemnas was the guy Sora and the others defeated. But the name Axel seemed like someone I knew…

Flashback

Several days after Roxas' disappearance, the town saw a lot more of Nobodies. Tira fought every one of them that she could. "Will these things ever leave this place alone!" she yelled at a dusk but it obviously wasn't paying attention to anything she had to say. She destroyed it quickly using Eternal Harmony. She heard clapping from behind her. She quickly turned to see a man with red spiky hair and a long black coat. He smirked at her. "Not bad, you're pretty good. I can see why he took interest in you. You're something else."

Tira threw Eternal Harmony at the unknown man like a boomerang, he nearly dodged it. "Who are you!" she demanded an answer. He laughed her attempt. "I'm Axel…got it memorized? And let's just say I'm a good friend of Roxas." Before she could say anything to him, he vanished right before her.

Tira's POV

"I remember that jerk!" He claimed to have been a friend of Roxas but I never remembered Roxas ever bringing him up. Well from the looks of it, he's a friend of his from that Organization. I couldn't take all this anymore. I needed to rest my head and clear out my mind. What else about Roxas is there that I don't know? I headed back to room, and laid there for quite some time. I was so caught up with thinking that I didn't know that I had fallen asleep.


Third Person POV

The Gummi Ship landed in the new world known as Persia. Everyone exited the ship, looking at this world they have never been to, let alone heard about. Sand was everywhere; it looked like an endless ocean of it. The sun hit them directly on their skin since there wasn't a cloud in sight. It reminded Sora and Riku of Agrabah.

"Wow sure is hot here!" Kairi exclaimed. Tira told Bentley to return to the gummi ship, since his coat was black and she didn't want him to be overexposed to the sun. He did as he was told. Rina placed a hand above her forehead and began searching for any sign of civilization, nothing. They began to wander the new world as sweat overcame all of them. "It's way too hot with these clothes on." Sora complained. Rina jumped at an idea in her head. "Tira, why don't you use your magic that Rikku taught you!"

Tira began to scratch her head. "And what magic is that exactly?" Rina began to think, trying to remember the type of magic that had to be used. "Dressphere magic!" The others began to become confused. They've never heard of any type of magic like this before. "Dressphere?" Sora repeated. "How come I've never heard of that?"

Rina looked at the four with her hands on her hips. "That's because only Yuna, Rikku and Paine know this type of magic. And Rikku taught Tira this, so I'm pretty sure she can use it." Tira placed her hand on her chin. "And how do I exactly use this?" Rina took a spot by her and pointed at her necklace. "Use the Keyblade, and draw a circle into this world." She was pointing at the sand. "When it appears, and it should, we all step into in and our clothes should change."

Riku had an unsure look on his face. "Rina are you sure about this?" She smiled and nodded her head. "I'm positive. I remember Rikku talking to Leon about it one day." Tira then giggled. "So you were eavesdropping, typical Rina." Rina's face lit up at the sign that maybe her friend was starting to remember her from the past. Tira called forth Eternal Harmony. A little unsure about it, she began to draw a circle into the sand. Everyone was amazed that now the circle was glowing. "You did it Tira!" Rina praised her. "Now we just have to step into it."

And they all did just that. When the magic circle faded from the sand, they all stood there with outfits that people from this world would wear. Sora wore light brown shorts, and a white button up shirt, and over that black vest. Riku wore blue pants that were made of a different fabric than the denim he was used to, this fabric was light and allowed the light breeze to flow through. He had a white sleeveless button up shirt on, the bottom buttons were undone to where you could see his abdominal. He too wore a vest on top, his being yellow.

Kairi had on a pink dress, the straps resting below her shoulders, and a white sash was tied across her hips. Rina had on a white long sleeved blouse that revealed her stomach as well, and with that she wore purple Capri like pants with a black belt. Tira wore something very different. She had on a turquoise top that ended right below her breasts, and tied up around her neck. Her stomach was very visible now than from what she was used to. She wore a white pants that were cut off from the sides to reveal her legs as well. She took a look at herself and noticed how revealing it was. "Rina, why am I wearing this?" Rina let out a chuckle. "When you look like a Princess, that means you're in another kingdom and with that you have to keep the rule of Princess." Tira sighed.

"Give me back the dagger!" A woman's voice yelled. Another one laughed and responded "You can go ahead and search for it yourself, but you're going to have to check everywhere." He winked at her. The woman then pouted. Suddenly they noticed the five teens. "Is everything okay?" Riku questioned, his eyes stuck on the man. "Oh everything is fine here, just a disagreement." The man responded. "And who are you if I may ask, you guys travelers?"

"Um you can say it like that, I'm Sora and these are my friends Riku, Kairi, Rina, and Tira." Sora answered. The woman began to examine them. "It's very nice to meet you…I'm Tamina, Princess of the holy city Alamut. And this here is Dastan, Prince of that horrible Empire of Persia."


So I've decided to use Persia from Prince of Persia: Sands of Time! Tell me what you guys think of the story so far. Reviews would be appreciated && thanks to those that have so far! Also I would like suggestions on what world to use after this. If you have any ideas just PM me (:
