Brittany's Point of Veiw
We're finally on Destiny Islands. I did better than I thought I would. It was just like the game. Yuffie is doing repairs on the gummi ship. Riku is showing me around. We were almost done. I had been pretty much everywhere except The Secret Place and The Paopu tree. We're on our way to the Secret Place right now.
It's just like in the game. "And this right here is The Secret Place. Only Sora, Kairi, and me know about this place." Riku said. I looked at where Sora and Kairi drew pictures of each other and later drew them handing each other paopu fruits. Mom and Dad... Well, not my real Mom and Dad, but I don't think that I'm ready to except Riku and Yuffie as my parents yet. I hope Alison's okay. I wonder if Xehanort has told her.
"This place is amazing. Are we going to the paopu tree now?" I asked eager to move on. "That's the 5th time you asked me. Alright. We'll go to the paopu tree. I think that your mother is probably already there." Riku said. I flinched a little bit at Riku calling Yuffie my mother, but I didn't say anything. Why does my situation have to be so complicated?
As Riku predicted, Yuffie was there. "I'll be right back. Brittany, stay here." Riku said as he ran off somewhere. "Hi... Yuffie." I greeted siting on the paopu tree. "Hey Brittany. You know, you can call me Mom if you want." Yuffie suggested. I stared at the ground. I was hoping we wouldn't have this conversation any time too soon. I guess they've waited so long that they're so eager to have me be a part of their family.
"I don't know... I'm not sure. Sora and Kairi were like my parents. They raised me so-" Wait a minute! Sora and Kairi knew about this. Why didn't they tell me? Why didn't I live with Yuffie and Riku? How could they have done that to me? Should I move on and stop thinking about Sora and Kairi? Should I call Riku and Yuffie, Mom and Dad? "You know what? Never mind Mom. I think that's a good idea. I do have one question though. Why did Kairi take me to earth?" I asked. Yuffie... Mom blinked in surprise. "Oh... That. Well, for now let's just say that you were safer there until you got older." She answered. "But why didn't I know the truth?" I demanded. "That part, I'm not sure. Not even Riku knows. Sora just said that it was necessary. Riku trusts him too much in my opinion. He just did what Sora said without a second thought. But I'm sure there's a good reason." Mom explained. Maybe there was a good reason. I think I'll stick with Yuffie and Riku being my mom and dad. Maybe calling them that will help me believe it.
Suddenly, Riku- I mean Dad came running to Mom and me with three light blue ice creams on sticks. "As promised." He smiled as he two of them to Mom and me. "Thank you" I thanked taking a bite of my ice cream. "Sweet yet salty." I chuckled realizing I just essentially said the same thing as Roxas and Xion. Right now I decided that I won't think about what anyone hid from me in the past, I would just enjoy the moment.
And that's a wrap. I thought of having more, but I wanted this chapter to end on a positive note and I was worried that if I didn't stop there it wouldn't. Thank you unicron1000 and v.t.7 for your awesome reviews.
