"So this is the gummi ship we're using…" Sora said examining the big gummi ship in front of him. Before the night came last night, Minnie came to Sora's and Kairi's respective rooms and told them to meet her the next day at the gummi hangar. Sora, Kairi, Chip, Dale, and Daisy were there. Chip and Dale took the liberty of showing Sora and Kairi the gummi ship that they would be flying while waiting for Minnie to come.
"Yep!" Dale yelled, jumping in the air.
"It isn't as good as some of the ships that you have flown in in the past…" Chip started, but Daisy interrupted.
"Trust me. Donald sometimes wouldn't close his mouth about ships you've designed."
"Anyway," Chip continued, "this ship has high speed, can be used with teeny ships, if you wanted them, and has many mobility and weapon options."
"It also was designed to be used by two or more people, so you can make full use of its features." Dale said. They seemed to be very proud of their work.
"Umm…but I haven't driven a gummi ship before…" Kairi stated looking up at the ship.
"Don't worry. The ship can be set in different modes. We'll just set it so Sora does all of the hard stuff." Chip stated.
"Yeah, and I'll teach you some of the harder stuff as we go. I learned after watching Donald and Goofy once. It really isn't hard." Sora said to Kairi.
Everyone heard footsteps coming down the stairs from the courtyard. Minnie walked down to them followed by a walking broomstick holding something.
"Sorry I'm late," Minnie said apologetically. She waved her servant forward, "Here Kairi, this is for you." The broom held out the object. It was a rapier that was about a meter long and lightweight. It was shiny and it looked as if it never had been used. "None of us in the castle had any use for it, and it is lightweight. I thought it would be good for you."
Kairi took it out of the servant's hands and held it in hers. It was, indeed, light. A smile appeared on her face, "Thanks. I think it will be good for me."
"Sorry," Dale started while Chip ran up to the controls and pressed some buttons, "but we think that you should go in and check out the controls to check out how this thing might work."
After pressing a few more buttons, Chip ran back down and looked up at Sora, "This ship's ready to go! The mode is set so that one person can drive and maneuver while one person utilizes the weapons, if needed. Since driving can get a little harder, I think that Sora should do the drivin'."
"Come on inside! We'll show you a few things before you go and make sure you're ready!" Dale said running inside. Chip followed him.
"I guess we should say our goodbyes now." Minnie said. "I'll let you know if I hear anything to do with the king."
"Thanks, we appreciate it!" Sora started than bowed, "See ya later, your majesty."
"Yes thank you. Goodbye." Kairi said and bowed as well.
"We'll see you later than." Daisy said waving. Sora and Kairi smiled than followed onto the gummi ship.
"…and these are the controls that change the different modes." Chip finished explaining to Sora the different controls for the ship.
"Sounds easy enough. You think you got what you're supposed to do, Kairi?" Sora asked looking over in Kairi's direction. Dale had just finished explaining to Kairi what she was supposed to do.
"I think I get it enough. Doesn't looke too hard." Kairi smiled and jumped into her seat, carefully setting the rapier in a safe spot, "Well, let's get going!"
"Bye guys!" The two Chipmunks chorused running out the door. Shortly after the hatch closed.
Sora jumped in his seat and buckled in. "You don't know how much I missed flying one of these…" a big smile lit his face. He pressed a button and the engine started up. "Ready Kairi?"
"Ready as I'm going to be!"
"Let's go!" Sora pressed a few more things as the ship started going forward. The ship stopped the slow motion. "Huh?"
"Did you mess it up already, Sora?"
"No, I didn't…what's that?" Sora said pointing in front of them. Outside of the gummi ship, they saw an arrow pointing down. After looking at it for a second, the ship just started to free-fall through the ground. Kairi started to scream when all of a sudden, the ship jerked to a stop and flew forward at a high speed into space. Sora quickly grabbed on to the controls. "Phew…didn't think that would happen…"
Yes, I know a little short. Hey, I tried, right? Sorry for the halfway long waits. I couldn't decide which world should go first, but I finally did and summer is ending up being busier than school! Anyway, Rand R!
