I needed a pre-note to keep the format normal.
Enjoy!
We do not own anything related to this story other than the OCs and I'ltorien.
Chapter XXV
My Name is …
Birds twittered. Wind blew through the open windows. Sunlight streamed in.
Sora opened his eyes.
He rose slowly from a soft bed. He was wearing a white cloth shirt that was pretty big on him and brown, cloth trousers that were also slightly big. His necklace was still on him and he blinked a few times.
"Where and the hell am I?" he asked aloud. He heard a stifled moan escape a body next to him. He looked over and there was Kairi. She was in attire just like his, her necklace, too, was still on. He got out of bed and felt refreshed. His wounds were completely healed. Hers had been too. She opened her eyes and looked at him. They both smiled. He crushed her in a hug as she sat up. Their lips met each other and they continued to hold one another.
"Where are we?" she asked.
"I don't know," he replied.
They were in a simple room, bare of everything but their two beds, a stand in between them, and a chair in a corner that faced them, as if someone had been keeping watch. A dazzling sun streamed into the room, warming it. Sora breathed in the fresh air.
"Wherever we are, I feel safe," Kairi told him. Then, a door in the room opened. In walked a female wearing a cloak, concealing her features, yet even then, Sora felt like she was familiar somehow. She walked over to them.
"Hello? Where are we? Who are you?" Sora asked, staring at the newcomer intently. His mouth hung open as her eyes flashed to his for a second beneath the cowl. He remembered those, he just couldn't place them. "We've met before, haven't we?"
"Hello Sora, Kairi. Yes, we've met, when we did … I told you my name was One, but I think you deserve more than that now. You deserve a proper introduction and an explanation," she answered, calm and gentle was her voice. She pulled back the cloak and revealed herself to them for the first time. "You are in the world of I'ltorien, in the base of our organization and my home. My name is Tina Branford, and welcome to the Harbingers."
TN: So, it's finally done! Book one is complete!
TUH: *Walks around in Terra pajamas and with a plushie* I missed you soooo much.
TN: I can't wait to start becoming an intricate part of I'ltorien! This is gonna be SOOO awesome!
TUH: Just don't spoil anymore. Let's start with the thank yous.
TN: So, a big thanks to all of our reviewers who always give us such insight into our story, for always helping us become better in every way! You don't know how much that you help us! Got anything to say, Herald?
TUH: Yeah, special thanks to WoodDog and Lucenthia for sticking with us since very early in the fic, and especially for having us helped improve as it went. I have to thank SorasApprencticeNumberOne and tennisdesi91 for also showing loyalty to the fic from the moment they picked it up. Another set of thanks to TerraKH and karu0792 for recently catching up. Finally, if you ever catch up, this is a thanks for you Penguinlord372.
TN: And a special thanks to Aran Dri'iz-El for being the most enthusiastic out of you all!
TUH: Oh
TUH: And the rest that read but didn't review.
TUH: Door's there. I have a shotgun and you have 10 seconds. Get out of my lawn.
TN: And I agree ...
TN: If you don't review, you actually hurt our experience. We are always looking to improve, and when you don't review, it doesn't help us, so why should we care about you? That is all I have to say. You're just better off never reading the story if you don't give two shits of worth to it.
TN: Ready for book two, Herald?
TUH: With both excitement and a newly rekindled anger. Yes.
TN: So, wanna give them the nifty title of it?
TUH: Aight. Get ready for:
TN & TUH: Harbinger of Light: Rise from the Ashes! Coming May 31st, so be on the lookout!
TN: Now ... I have a promise to keep to a great friend. Time to go read.
TUH: Guess some people care about others. Others should get a piano dropped on them.
TN: Agreed.
TN & TUH: May the Love of Anuwëy guide you when all Hope is lost
