Chap. 8 (Kairi)
"Kairi! What are you doing?!"
"I'm going to find them...." Simply, she said, pushing the old wooden boat into the crystal water, not struggling at all.
"You're crazy, Kairi! You'll never find them! They're never coming back!" It hurt to have those words touch her lips. Kairi whipped around, hurt and rage in her gentle blue eyes. Kairi slapped the girl who had said those hurtful words.
"Selphie! I won't allow you to kill what little hope I have left! I won't!" She exclaimed, climbing into the boat and rowing away from the pain and loneliness that accompanied her on that island.
"Kairi! No!" Selphie ran into the water, until it came up to her waist. She looked on with helpless eyes. "Please....come back..." She sobbed, trudging back to shore, watching Kairi sail into the distant horizon, alone, as she had been. "Be safe, Kairi, and bring those two boys home...."
Night fell, and the cold wind stung her gentle face. She shivered, yet, she remained strong. Her eyes glistened in the twilight, each small glimmer of hope coming in to full focus.
"I'll find them...and I'll bring them back where they belong...with me..." Her arms felt weak as she continued to row the small vessel. "Soon, we'll be together again, like always. Riku, sulking by the tree. Sora, trying to show off to me and Riku, that lazy bum...." She smiled to herself. "And, me, with the two boys I love." Sighing, she returned to her reality and remembered what she was facing. The sea, its' murderous waves, the stinging breeze, and a new life. She had forgotten everything that she left behind. Tidus, Wakka, Selphie, the Secret Place, everything. Her mind now revolved around two things. Two rebellious boys who stole her heart. Riku and Sora.
