Chapter One: Kairi's Awakening
Setting: Directly after the ending of Kingdom Hearts.
Kairi simply smiled as she looked at the finished product of her cavewall carving.
"Now I know you'll always be with me Sora..." tears whelled up in her eyes, and quickly wiped them away with her hand.
Standing up, Kairi looked at the door, which she knew would now be closed forever. She walked towards the door and placed her hand over the spot where
the nob used to be. Suddenly, the door started turning white underneath her hand. She instinctively jerked her hand away, but the color continued to spread throughout the door.
"Wh-what's happening?" Kairi stepped back and realized what had happened. Before, Riku and Sora were the only ones who could make the door react, and that was because they were the chosen ones- chosen personally by the Keybalde.
The door began to glow where Kairi's hand had once been. A bright beam of light then shot out from its palm and head straight for Kairi.
Her eyes opened widely, but she quickly shut them and put her arms up as if in defense. When she noticed that nothing seemed to be happening, she slowly lowered her arms and opened her eyes. She then covered her mouth and looked around in amazement. She was surrounded by a translucent bubble that seemed to shine a white light from the inside. She reached out her hand to touch the side of this strange barrier and notcied that she could go through it quite easily, so she stepped out and looked around.
Everything checked out normal. Then, her gaze stopped on the bubble. She could see what seemed to be her reflection, but what she saw couldn't be real...she looked back down at her own self to make sure she was really still the same. She lifted her arms and her eyes grew wide as she fell silent.
"How...when?" she looked herself over. Her arms were covered in white sleeves with purple embroidery. She quickly looked back up at the reflective bubble. It showed her in a white robe that consisted of a short white train with purple embroidery beautifully stitched throughout the outfit. She also had a hood on.
Kairi turned, still looking at her reflection, and noticed something hanging out of her hood...a scroll! She quickly snatched it to find but a short message inside:
She looked down to see it signed Your Oathkeeper.
Kairi thought a long while trying to figure out what this message could mean.
"What are you trying to tell me -Sora?", she whispered.
