~chapter 1~
The clouds parted revealing the sun and a bright blue sky. Kairi looked up and smiled, "Well I guess it might be a nice day after all." She paused and looked down at a bracelet she was wearing. It had a little yellow star on it. She started to think of when she got it. Sora had given it to her. He said he made it himself....Or tried. She smiled to herself, "Sora I better see you soon or I'll go out there and look for you myself."
She looked down the little road with shops not even open. She looked at her watch. "3..2..1..go."
All the lights turned off on the corners of the street and all the windows to the shops burst open.
"Well that was quick." Kairi sighed. "Tidus needed some string.." She looked around. She spotted a little accessory shop on the far corner. "Ah there we go." She ran over to it. She ran up the stairs and opened the door to go inside.
When she got in a man at the counter was reading a paper. There was another man standing by the counter talking with him.
"What's happening in the coliseum this week? Come on tell me." He said bouncing up and down.
"A fight." The man reading the paper replied.
"Well I know that but what kind of fight?" The man asked again.
Kairi spotted some string hanging from a hook on the wall. "Hope this will do." She headed toward the counter.
"It's a fight with a teenage guy who has a magician person who is a duck and a knight who is sort of like a dog." The man replied putting down the paper.
Kairi jolted to a stop and dropped the string.
The men both looked at her. "Is there anything wrong miss?"
She ran over to the counter, "What did you say?"
"What do you mean?" The man at the counter asked.
"The fight with the teenage guy. Him, what about it?" Kairi yelled.
"Oh that guy." The man at the counter sighed. "He's gonna be participating in a fight at the coliseum sometime this week."
Kairi screamed with a wide smile and ran out of the store.
"I wonder what that was for?" The man at the counter wondered scratching his head.
"She forgot the string." The other man said pointing at it on the ground.
Kairi ran threw the village thinking to herself, screaming in her head. 'He's coming back, he's coming back! I can see him again!' She turned a corner and someone grabbed her hand. It was Yuffie.
"Whoa where's the fire?" She asked.
"SORA! HE'S COMING BACK!" Kairi screamed.
"Wait. What? Are you saying that Sora the keyblade master is coming here!?" Yuffie yelled.
Kairi nodded her head with a smile on her face, "He's coming back!"
Yuffie laughed, "We have to tell Squall."
Yuffie started to run still holding Kairi's hand. She wrapped around corner after corner never stopping for a break. They came into an alleyway and ran down it. There was a pile of boxes at the end.
"Prepare to jump!" Yuffie yelled lookin back at Kairi.
They approached the boxes and jumped over it. They ran into a wide open area with carts, shops, and stores everywhere. They ran down the little paths in between the shops and stores dodging carts. They ran behind a store and came around a corner where there was a huge crowd. Yuffie let go of Kairi's hand, "Just keep running to the house okay!" She jumped over the crowd and kept running.
Kairi began to push her way through the crowd. She began to run pushing them out of the way saying a sorry after. One of the people pushed her around so she was running backwards. She hit someone's back and the both fell to the ground.
Kairi sat up, opened her eyes and grabbed her head. "Ow gosh that hurt." She stood up with her eyes closed still grabbing her head.
"Are you okay?" Someone asked behind her.
Kairi turned around with her eyes still closed. "Yea just a bump heh." She opened her eyes and a young man was standing in front of her. Flash backs swept through her mind. Images of Sora and her. The last time she saw him was the longest.
"Sora?" Kairi whispered.
The young man in front of her looked at her. "What?"
"It's you! I know it is!" Kairi yelled hugging him.
"How do you..?" He asked looking at her. An image flew threw his mind. Back at Hollow Bastion. When Kairi had turned him back into a human. When they were hugging before. He looked down at her. "Kairi it's you."
Kairi looked up at him and nodded. "Sora I knew it was you!" She let go of him quickly. "WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN!"
Sora twitched and looked at her. "Eh you know doin my job." He swung his keyblade up onto his shoulder. "Fighting heartless."
"Competing in competitions at the coliseum." Kairi said crossing her arms. Her voice went soft. "You said you would come back as soon as you could."
Sora frowned. "I'm sorry okay but I haven't been able to."
"THEN WHY ARE YOU HERE!" Kairi yelled.
"Because he's on official business isn't that right?" Leon asked appearing through the crowd with Yuffie.
"I knew you wouldn't make it heh." Yuffie smiled.
The clouds parted revealing the sun and a bright blue sky. Kairi looked up and smiled, "Well I guess it might be a nice day after all." She paused and looked down at a bracelet she was wearing.
