Author's note: This is a story of how Kairi's life could be, before the heartless come. It's really rather sad, and quite evil. I wasn't
really proud of this story in a way, mostly because it's just so sad. Well, enjoy, and PLEASE read and review!!!

Concrete Angel- Kairi's story
The sun shines through the the window of Kairi's room, the little rays of light playing over her bedsheets, her face, and her
belongings. A ray of light shines onto her eyes, and her deep blue-green eyes open. Her small form sits up and her hands rub her
eyes. As she looks around her room, to see her belongings in a mess everywhere-- her table flipped over, her clothes scattered--
another tear threatens her eyes.
She stands up, and slips off her pajama bottoms. She pulls on a pair of purple shorts, and a lighter purple skirt over that.
She pulls off her pajama top and tosses it onto the bed. She grabs her black tanktop and puts it on, then pulling her white tanktop
with purple rim over that.
Walking over to her dresser, she picks up her small brush and runs it through her maroon locks of hair. When she finishes
brushing her hair, she makes her way over to her desk, and puts her dark blue armband over the bruise she got the night before,
wincing slightly as it touched the sensitive spot.
Her eyes glance further down her arm, near the wrist, and she sees another bruise. Sighing softly, she puts her long yellow
armband over it carefully. She puts on a black and a yellow bracelet on her other arm to even it out. Walking over to the mirror, she
sees strangle marks on her neck, and pulls on her black choker to hide it.
Finally, she picks up a golden necklace. She opens the cirular locket, and inside she looks at a picture of her parents. As
she looked at it a single tear ran down her cheek. In the other picture slot, was a picture of her two best friends-- Riku and Sora,
making funny faces. She chuckled lightly at it, then she closed it and put it around her neck.
She walked back over to her bed and sat down, picking up her sneakers on the way. She pulled them over her sockless feet,
and made her way quietly downstairs.
Her foster parents were still asleep, something she was very thankful for. She walked silently down the stairs, making sure to
keep the steps from creaking, and waking them up. At the bottom of the stairs was her blue and purple backpack, she picked it up and
put it on the kitchen table.
Shaking, tired hands opened the cabinet, and grabbed a cereal bar. she stuffed it in her backpack, and went out the door,
shutting it quietly behind her.
As she walked down the road, she opened her backpack, and looked in. There was the lunch she packed, and the cereal bar.
She pulled out the cereal bar and opened it, putting the wrapper in a trashbin as she walked alone on the not-so-crowded street. She
began to eat it quietly, until she heard the sounds of two laughing boys behind her.
She turns around to see Riku chasing Sora. Riku's silver hair is flying behind him in the wind he's creating, his black and yellow
backpack nearly falling off his one shoulder. Sora's brown, unruly, hair flies in the wind also, as he runns, laughing as his friend trried to
catch him. Sora's blue and red backpack was bouncing in rhythm as he ran.
Kairi laughed, seeing her friends, and as Sora was about to run past her, he grabbed her wrist, where she had the bruise,
pulling her with him. She winced slightly, but ran with Sora, then breaking out into a laugh.
The trio was laughing as they turned the corner, almost knocking over an old lady. Kairi yelled out an apology as she ran
past, but couldn't help laughing. Riku had finally caughten up, and grabbed a hold of Sora's backpack, pulling the two back onto the
ground where they laughed uncontrolably. Riku smirked in victory and put his hands out to help the two up, and each gladly accepted,
getting once again to their feet.
Once they had stopped laughing, and started walking to school again, something struck Riku's mind.
"Kairi, why was there more yelling coming from your house last night?" he asked.
Kairi simply shrugged it off, "I don't know what you're talking about." was her simple reply. She had gotten used to making
up excuses for all the commotion that came from her house.
"But Kairi..." Sora put in, "I heard it too."
Kairi faked a big smile and a laugh, as she had gotten used to doing. "I think the both of you are going crazy."
Riku and Sora exchanged looks of concern for their female friend.
"Are you sure there's nothing going on?" Sora asked, putting his hand on her shoulder.
Kairi nodded. "Of course, what would be wrong? It's not like my foster parents are evil, ya know." her words almost brought
tears to her eyes, but she kept it inside. She so often didn't truly believe her words that it hurt.
The boys just shrugged, and they entered the schoolyard. There were all their schoolfriends, and, of course, Tidus and Selphie
were dueling by the monkey bars. Kairi laughed apon seeing this, and the boys exchanged a smile.
Kairi gave them a knowing look. "Not now you two, school starts in two minutes."
They sighed and looked to Kairi. "Yes mother!" they said in unison.
This maded Kairi laugh. But something rung in her head. "Does this really amuse me," she thought, "or have I been pretending so
long that I *think* I'm amused?"
The boys raised their eyebrows at the strange look on Kairi's face, but shrugged it off. The bell soon rang, and the three headed into
their seperate classes.
Once Kairi was in her room, she sat down at her deesk, and pulled out what she would need for the day. Her expression was
emotionless, as it usually was when her friends weren't there to cheer her up. The teacher saw Kairi's armband slip, showing part of her
bruise, but Kairi quickly pulled it back up. The teacher's eyes became soft, only able to think of why she would want to cover it. The
teacher knew it would explain a lot-- Kairi having to walk to school everyday, her foster parents never comingto see her in the school plays,
or the school concerts. They didn't even come to parent-teacher conferences. The teacher shrugged it off, thinking she must be imagining
things. After all, Kairi always seemed so happy when she was with her friends.....

Author's note: What do you think? I'll never know unless you review!!! I know it seems so sad, and it's only the first chapter.
*sob* Poor Kairi. I thought it up kind of randomly, but I wasn't sure if people would like it. The more reviews I get the quicker
the next chapter is up!!! ^^;;
