Chapter Four

"Ya gots to work with what you gots to work with" Stevie Wonder

Sora woke up feeling refreshed from yesterday's battle, and the aftermath. He lay in bed for a little while trying to run some ideas through his head. He had to do something, there was no stopping the Heartless, and now Souless from their mission. That was his job as keyblade master, stop the darkness, and find the door to the light.

He then sighed, pulled himself from his bed, and began to dress into his usually outfit, of black pants, black see-through shirt with another one on top, ziped up. He then put on his silver crown pendant, and his shoes.

As he walked out of his room, he figured the othes were talking about what was going to happen next so he decided to take his time, not really wanted to be confronted again. He knew his desicion and was going to stick with it, even though it might mean being by himself for a long time.

Taking certain paths Sora made his way into the kitchens, to pick up a bite to eat. The servents just nodded to him, and gave the boy food and juice, then went back to work.

Nibbling on his pancakes he noticed how his appietite changed over the two years he had been waiting for the time to come. He didn't eat as much, as he used to wolf down food in an instant.

Something else had changed, he was no longer constantly happy, his mood seemed stressed, nervous, and impatient, but also slightly sad. So much was going on inside of him at once he became confused. Another emotion lurked there to, but he couldn't place it.

After finishing his food, it seemed the right time to go to the throne room. Using the servents hall he made his way there. Pausing at the doors he decided to try and listened, but he could only hear muffled voices.

Hesitating he paused in opening the door to the throne room, he could leave right then and there, the Gummi ship wasn't too hard to drive. He could start his journey, but something inside seemed to tell him to open the door.

Slowly putting his hand on the knob he turned it and began to walk inside, but instantly dove to the ground as a fireball hit over his head.

Lifting up his head he looked over to see Donald and his nephews standing not to far from where he was lieing on the ground.

"Sorry didn't see you coming in Sora." Huey aplogized.

The teen pushed himself to his feet and walked over to the small group and looked straight at Donald, his eyebrows raised in questioning.

Donald stared at Sora for a moment before turning away to talk to his nephews again. "Go practice some more, I'll be right back."

The boys nodded and slowly moved away, as Donald turned back to Sora. "You want to know what is going on? Well I'm teaching my nephews some magic so they can be useful." The duck didn't finish, and didn't have to as Sora caught on.

"You guys are not going to give up are you?" He asked.

"Sora you have to admit you can't do it all on your own. There will be a time when your battling a hard Heartless and need back-up. You are the last hope for the worlds, carrying the keyblades. If something happened to you, everything will fall to darkness." Donald commented looking over at his nephews practicing.

"I guess so." Sora said looking down at his shoes.

Spells were being shouted out over the silence coming from the two. Sora scratched the back of his head. "So where is Goofy?"

"With Max working on the Gummi Ship, your first stop will be Twilight Town for supplies."

"But...."

Donald raised up his feathered hand. "No buts, it is the Queen's orders, you might not be happy with the situation, but at least show some respect to her majesty's wishes."

The teen sighed as his eyes trailed over to the nephews. "Well then I better get ready to go." He muttered, turned and walked out.

He didn't even see Donald's expression as the duck watch his friend go. He might never see his friend again, yet instead of giving the boy friendship, he was showing rejection. He sighed and lifting the wand turned back to training his nephews.

"Uncle Donald look out!" Huey shouted.

Donald dove down to the ground as his tail caught on fire.

"Blizarda!" Louie shouted putting out the fire.

"Sorry Uncle Donald."

Donald slowly stood up feeling like something was frozen on his tail. "Louie!" He shouted out his eyes starting to turn red.

"Uh-Oh." The nephews muttered, as Donald began chasing them around the throne room.

"Hand me that wrench, will ya Max?" Goofy asked as he was under the ship.

"Okay dad if your sure." Max said handing the tool over.

Goofy took it, and began fixing a part. "You see Max, I'm not that bad of a handyman." He began screwing another part in.

"Dad I wouldn't...." Max began.

Suddenly a small explosion went off as Goofy went sailing from the room. "Waaahhhoooo!"

Max shook his head and went under the ship to fix the problem, as Goofy came back in blacken, from head down, and smoking. "Maybe you should lie down dad."

"I'm just fine Maxey." Goofy muttered falling to the ground, leaving the teen sighing.

Auburn hair could only be seen under a bundle of covers and sheets. There was a knock on the door, as the person under the covers muttered something inaudible.

"Common Kairi, wake up! We have a lot of shopping to do today!" Came Selphie's squeaky voice from behind the door.

Kairi groaned inwardly. 'Figures Selphie has to be an early bird' "I'll be out in a minute." She called.

"Okay, I will wait with the others in the Lobby."

She waited till she could hear the younger girl's footsteps, then stretched and pulled herself out of bed. She didn't notice the sheet on her foot till she tripped to the ground in a bundle of sheets.

Yanking it off, she walked over barefoot to the closet to pick out an outfit. Carefully she pulled down a skirt, that was black, and a tank top that was midnight blue in color. Getting dressed, she quickly put on a pair of white tennis shoes.

Kairi looked in the mirror, and began brushing her shoulder length auburn hair. She felt strange today, almost as if something was going to happen, good and bad. Pushing the feeling aside, and setting down her brush, she walked out of her room, locking the door.

The others were waiting for her as she stepped into the lobby.

"About time you got here." Selphie muttered jumping up from the chair she was sitting in.

Wakka and Tidus sighed, as the group walked out. They were all amazed by how big Twilight Town truely was.

Kairi was looking around awed at everything including the trains that ran through. Tidus walked alongside the red headed girl. "Didn't I tell you, it was going to be fun."

The girl nodded and didn't notice as Tidus took her hand, but then stopped, and looked at the boy. He had blonde hair and bright blue eyes, but she looked down at their hands. "Tidus what are you doing?"

Tidus looked suprised for a moment before letting go. "Nothing." He lied.

Kairi raised her eyebrows, and was about to say something when Selphie's voice came out. "Shoes! Lets go Kairi!" She squelled out.

The auburn haired girl looked at Tidus for a moment before chasing after Selphie. She would have to talk to him later.

Sora looked over at the familar battleship he had used two years ago. It looked good from the tune-up Goofy and Max gave it. He walked over to the queen, and bowed to her his saphire eyes remaining blank.

"Good luck Sora, keyblade master." Queen Minnie said. "Bring Mickey and Riku home."

The boy nodded and moved over to his companions Donald and Goofy. He looked at both of them, giving a small smile.

Both Donald's and Goofy's eyes looked pained, as they saluted their friend. "Come back in one plate, Sora." Goofy muttered.

"Piece!" Donald corrected hitting Goofy in the head with his wand.

"Right. One piece." The knight said.

Sora's smile grew bigger as he almost burst out laughing. "Don't worry about me guys, I'll be fine." Turning he walked over to the others, nodding to them the group boarded the ship.

Taking the controls, he flew the ship out, into the space, quickly he adjusted the navigation system, to go to Twilight Town. Pushing a few buttons the ship sped up, as it went around astriods.

"You think you could slow down some!" Max shouted out.

"Sorry! We are almost there though!" Sora called back.

"No wonder dad didn't let him drive much." Max mummered to the the nephews causing them to snicker.

Sora smirked as he pushed the lever up more causing another burst of speed, making the others pinned to their seats.

The ship reached the place in no time at all, as Sora activated the depart button. In a bright flash of light all 5 of them were on the ground. The teen looked around the area, to see people walking around doing their work.

He looked at the others glad that they were wearing clothes fit the area around them. He then put a hand to his head, feeling strange.

"What's wrong Sora?" Max asked.

"Not sure, it just feels, well it's hard to explain."

The young knight just nodded as they walked through the town streets, as they passed several of the shops were already closing down for the day.

"Maybe we should look for a hotel." Huey suggested.

"Yeah, we can look for supplies tomarrow." Louie finished.

Sora nodded, agreeing with them, as he turned an area, looking around. He closed his eyes for a moment thinking.

"There's a hotel over there." Max said pointing a gloved hand to the lighted up building.

The keyblade master didn't hear the goof, as a scream seemed to fill the air. He then suddenly took off in the direction of it.

"Hey wait up!" Duey shouted.

Kairi couldn't help, but giggle as she saw how many bags Selphie had, even Tidus and Wakka had to help carry them. She then looked down at her bags, she had bought a pair of shoes, and some clothes, but even shopping didn't change her mood.

Stopping she looked up at the sky, letting the others get slightly ahead, she still couldn't shake the feeling away. She then closed her eyes slightly taking a breath of air.

"Hey Kai, why did you stop?" Tidus asked walking back to her.

Kairi looked over at Tidus slightly startled. "No reason, just thinking."

"Are you sure?"

She nodded trying to ensure she was feeling fine, but her eyes betrayed her.

"What is it, something up? Is it about Sora?"

"Well you see...." She began, but was cut off by Selphie's scream.

The two quickly ran to where Wakka and Selphie were, black things, were surrounding the two. "Heartless." Kairi whispered out, her eyes wide with suprise.

As if hearing the heartless turned toward the red-head getting ready to attack.

"We have to run Kairi." Tidus said.

"We can't, I mean what if they get to other people."

The blonde boy took a hold of Kairi's shoulders. "Are you crazy? Common."

It was too late as a Heartless leapt straight at the auburn haired girl.....

A bright flash of light came up along with black smoke, as Kairi moved her hands away, to draw a breath of air in. 'It can't be him He looks different, yet' She thought seeing the boy standing there, with not one, but two keyblades, both glowing.

"What the hell is going on here?" Tidus muttered looking over Kairi's shoulder.

Completly distracted the keyblade master began attacking the heartless, they seemed stronger, though as he began slicing through them. He didn't even notice the others there, as black smoke rose up.

"Well that was easy, too easy." He muttered.

"Sora! It's really you!" Shouted a familar voice as a figure with shoulder length auburn hair hugged him tight.

He then reconized her and willed the keyblades away to return her hug. "Kairi, it has been awhile." He muttered into her hair, as they pulled apart for a moment.

"Did you forget about us?" Selphie asked annoyed.

Sora smiled slightly, as he shook his head looking over at his old island friends, he then froze as saphire eyes looked around the area. Quickly he knocked Kairi to the ground as his golden keyblade appeared, he lifted it over his head to slash a Souless, but he didn't get away unscathed as its claws hit his right arm.

Ignoring the pain he began slashing away the Souless with his keyblade, as more scratches came with each slice.

"Sora! Cure!" Huey shouted healing the teen, as the others caught up.

Spells were fired out not very well aimed, Sora jumped up and flipped through the air to land by Max's side, and sliced the Souless with the keyblade, causing smoke to rise up. Quickly he raised up the keyblade, "Stopaga!" He shouted freezing them.

The others had gathered up and stood shocked at what was happening, around them, as Sora had just frozen the white heartless. Kairi was still in shock at seeing a boy that she hadn't seen in a long time just a few feet from her.

Several amounts of black smoke rose up in the air as Souless disappeared and more popped up, the teen quickly rolled over to the group and began protecting them from the attacks as he kept getting beat up.

As soon as the smoke began to disappear Sora fell to the ground exausted, he quickly drank a potion which healed him, mostly.

"Man, what was that?" Wakka asked.

Sora looked over to his companions they all looked wore out, and beat up. He then sighed as he watched Max also took a potion while the nephews healed themselves. His eyes seemed to tell them, that it was just a start. "That will be a very long story." He said aloud, and slowly stood up.

"We should get to safety for now." Max muttered, keeping a lookout.

Kairi walked over to the boy and took his free hand. "We can go to the hotel all of us are staying at."

"Good idea." Tidus said looking over at the two, feeling a burst of envy.

Sora nodded, as his saphire eyes looked into Kairi's, seeming to send, that they needed to talk, and she nodded.

Eventually they made it back to the hotel, but being wary of danger the entire time, so it took awhile, with Sora staying in the back of the group, Tidus eyeing his friend parts of the way and even when both he and Kairi walked into her room.

The blonde sighed, he would be sharing his room with Wakka, and let Max, Huey, Duey, and Louie share the extra room. As he watched Kairi disappear behind the doorway, he hit his hand on the wall. 'With Sora back, now I can never tell Kairi how I feel'

Slowly he walked down the hall and entered the room. "Wasn't that exciting Tidus, yah?" Wakka asked.

Tidus didn't answer and just jumped on the bed, wishing that he was back on the island, and never came to Twilight Town.

Kairi closed the door behind her and looked at Sora who was sitting on her bed. The two met each others eyes, and as she started to get lost in them, a blush came up.

Sora quickly looked away a blush also coming to his cheeks, he didn't even notice as Kairi came up and sat down next to him taking his hand.

"Um..." She muttered.

He squeezed her hand and looked over at Kairi. "You see Kairi, I, well, um...." He muttered his cheeks getting bright red, and he turned away again. 'Can I tell her, would it be possible, with what is happening?'

"What is it Sora?" Kairi muttered as she moved closer, her heart pounding. 'Is he going to tell me what I think he is? Please let him have the same feelings I've had for him' That was when she leaned in very close.

He turned his head around to look at Kairi again. "Well, what I wanted to say is I lllo..."

Sora never had a chance to finish his sentence....

Well that's it for this chapter, yes I know a tad bit of a cliffhanger, and you will have to wait till chapter 5! Please Read and Review!
