Chappy 2! ^^ Oh, and please forgive me for the misspelling of 'Paopu' if it's spelled wrong. Internet isn't working all the fast right now and I'm too lazy to run upstairs and look. -.-;;;

Chap. 2 (Kairi)
She sat on the ground of the small cave, her fingers traced over each warn down line. She felt tears well up in her eyes, so she looked away from the walls that held so many memories. Her mind was filled with those memories, those unforgettable memories that clung to her mind.
True, everyone on the island was worried about her, but they dare not say it. She had lost some things that meant entirely too much to her, and she was determined to get those two things back, namely, Riku and Sora. Unbeknownst to anyone else on the island, she had seen them, but not in body. She had seen them in her dreams, each reassuring her that the other would return safely. Deep within herself, she knew this was a lie. Riku and Sora, her best friends, her brothers, were lost.
"Kairi! Please, come out." A voice echoed through the cave and the voice belonged to Tidus, another resident of Destiny Island.
Kairi ignored Tidus's request and forced her tears back as she looked at the one drawing, the one that caused her more pain then any other. She remembered....
"Look, Kairi." Sora pointed to his work, which he was extremely proud of. He had sketched Kairi's face on the wall with a dull stone. Sora smiled, waiting for Kairi to respond.
"That's really good, Sora. Look at mine!" She, as well, pointed to her drawing. Sora pouted.
"Yours is a lot better then mine." Sora placed the rock down and pouted some more.
"Don't say that. Yours is awesome, Sora." Kairi pushed him down playfully and ran out of the Secret Place, followed by a smiling Sora.
"Wait up!"
When Kairi returned to Destiny Island after all that happened, she reentered the Secret Place and looked at the drawing, that seemed to have a new addition. As a tear gently rolled down her cheek, she noticed that Sora must have added this. A hand extended from Sora's face to Kairi's, holding a Paopu fruit, a symbolic Destiny Island tradition . If you give the Paopu to someone you really care about, your destines become intertwined and you'll forever be apart of one another's lives. Kairi let the tear slide down her cheek, as she picked up a rock and etched another addition, a hand from her own face, to Sora's. She smiled, somehow seeing Sora smiling right in front of her. She reached out her hand to touch him, but to no avail. It was only her imagination, needed Sora to return.
"Kairi! Come on! Your grandma wants you!" Tidus called again.
"Coming." She replied low enough to hide her tears. She returned to her feet and slowly exited the Secret Place, leaving behind all her memories of Sora and Riku, or at least, she tried to.
