Three Destinies
Chapter 1: The Girl's Search
It was a sunset when a girl was walking on the shores of Destiny Island, an island that is mesmerizing to the eye. She seemed to be thinking deeply that she did not notice that her pink skirt was already wet by the small waves that the ocean did. With no facial expression, she was just staring at the broad horizon. She was interrupted by a small splash made by a fish which hit her flawless face. Not knowing what had happened, she shook her head and gave a sigh.
"Sora… Why did you have to leave me…?" She sighed.
She went out of the shores and went to the white sands of the island and there, she squeezed her pink skirt to pour the water out and let her skirt dry. Without anyone to be with her, she seemed gloomy and lonely. All she wanted was to have her friends, Sora and Riku, back from her.
"I kinda miss them a lot… It was fun back then before those Heartless came… We used to play and make our own adventures in this island… (Sigh)… I wish they were back…" She told herself.
Suddenly, someone tapped her from behind. Not knowing who did it, she glanced to see who it was. She saw a boy with his hair messed up and was holding a red stick.
"Sora? Is that you?" She said.
"I'm sorry?" He asked.
She blinked for a couple of times to see if she was just seeing things and to her surprise, he was not the one that she was looking for.
"Oh… I'm really sorry, Tidus…" She apologized.
"It's okay, Kairi… Anyway, what's wrong? Thinking about Sora again?" Tidus asked.
"Well… Ya… You can say that… I just miss those times…"
"Oh… Don't worry… I'm sure he'll return and so is Riku… What happened to them anyway?"
No one knew what had happened during that fateful day when the Heartless came except the three of them. It seemed like the others just slept without knowing what was happening.
"It's a long story… It'll take me a long time telling you…"
"Okay… But, don't let it go way over your head, okay?"
"I guess… Heehee… Don't worry about me… I'll be fine." Kairi smiled.
Kairi bid Tidus a good bye and went to the place where it all started. For two whole years, she never went to this place anymore. That place just made her even more depressed, but now she was ready to face it. She gave a deep breath and entered the small opening which was now covered with vines. The inside did not change much except the carvings on the walls of the small cave were now partially obscured because of the dusts. Trying to get the "feel" of the place, she looked around for a while and finally went over where the carvings were. She knelt down and saw the carving of two people giving a star to each other. She touched it and a tear came out of her right eye which cleansed a part of the carving.
"Oh… Memories… They really don't do much except to be remembered… (Sigh)…" Kairi mourned.
She went towards the wooden door without the handle… She kicked it and punched it really hard for a couple of times. Soon, she grew tired and sat slowly in front of it and cried.
"This door is the reason why this happened! I wish this were gone!" Kairi shouted.
Suddenly, out of nowhere, a shiny golden pendant which looked like the shape of a heart fell down on her head and dropped on one of her hands. She examined it and realized that it was an emblem of Kingdom Hearts, a heart with an X mark crossed at the middle.
"Where'd this come from?" She asked herself.
She looked around and gave up. Thinking that it might be of some use someday, she kept it inside her pocket and went out of the cave. The stars were already shinning when she got out and the clear blue sky was already dark. The moon was a full moon and was looking down on the small island.
"Well… It's dark already. I should get back home…"
She walked towards her house, not far from the island, when suddenly; she heard a voice calling her. She wondered who was calling her and followed the mysterious voice. She walked the opposite direction and went away her house and was leading her to the raft that they made two years ago.
"Who are you? Why did you lead me here?" Kairi asked.
"This will lead you to where your friends are… They are still stuck in the world of Kingdom Hearts… You can help them…" The voice said.
"How?"
"Someday you will know… Now hurry and step into the raft and the wind will take you there… This is maybe your last opportunity…"
She was reluctant at first, but she decided to take the risk. She found a small thick thread lying around the area and took it, inserted it inside the hole of the pendant and wore it on her neck. She held to it tightly and stepped on the moving raft.
"Sora… Riku… Wherever you are… I'll find you…" Kairi said.
The waves where huge and it took her into the middle of the vast ocean within minutes. The winds where strong and it caused the raft to unbalance from time to time. Kairi was determined to find Sora, even if it would mean her life, and she took them courageously. She just closed her eyes and held to the pendant tightly. Soon, a huge whirlpool formed just meters away from the raft and was drawing it into it. Kairi paddled as hard as she could, but the whirlpool was just too strong. She was now hurling towards the middle and the raft was about to sink. She held to the raft tightly as the whirlpool gobbled them beneath the ocean… Kairi cried as the sinking raft went deeper and deeper. The raft sank and the whirlpool vanished and the ocean was calm again…
"This is only the beginning of their adventure…" a mysterious figure said as he stared at the sinking raft.
End of Chapter 1…
