Selphie cautiously walked into the First District and prepared to look for
Sora. She found him sitting on his own, in the Café.
"Hey, Sora," she went over and sat next to him. "You weren't, er...waiting for someone, were you?" She looked around nervously.
"No..." He looked at her, trying to get an answer out of her. "Why are you here, Selphie?"
"I-er..." Now the girl had to think of a reason. She couldn't exactly say, "Well, Sora, Kairi is dressing up as Yuffie and she's asked me to go and see if you're already with her so that she can come and pretend to be Yuffie so you'll like her..." That was also too long and confusing for Selphie.
"Yes?" Sora sighed.
"Yuffie wants to see you!" She grinned triumphantly.
"She does? But...I was just with her!" Sora protested.
"Ah. But she wants to see you again!" Selphie thought up.
"I thought you didn't like her..." Sora said suspiciously.
"No, that's Kairi. No, I don't mean, Yuffie's Kairi!" Selphie put a hand to her mouth, but Sora just looked at her strangely.
"You confuse me sometimes, Selphie..." he laughed it off. "Rephrase that. All the time."
"Oh, thanks," Selphie giggled. "I'll go and get her. Yuffie, I mean," she added quickly, and darted off. Sora rolled his eyes, he was catching that habit from Yuffie.
In seconds(ok, maybe a minute or two) Selphie arrived at the hotel where Kairi was still waiting outside, dressed as Yuffie.
"Selphie!" she hissed. "You have no idea how embarrassing that was! Riku passed by here. He said, 'hey, Yuffie', so obviously it's believable!" She smiled. "But still embarrassing! I had to hide,"
"I was only gone a couple of minutes," Selphie told her. "You couldn't hide. It's a corridor. Unless you hid in the shadows or something. I saw that on a movie once. Or...maybe I didn't..." Selphie screwed up her face to think.
"Selphie...SHUT UP!" Kairi shouted. "Now tell me what happened, with Sora!"
"Kairi, you act like it was a date! Well I told him Yuffie wanted to see him. Then he said Yuffie already passed by."
"Oh no! So then what?"
"I said you-Yuffie-was going to meet him, anyway! So let's go!"
"No, you stay here! I have to go alone, it's more believable! I really hope this works. And the real Yuffie doesn't turn up...now that would be typical, wouldn't it..."
"Funny, though," Selphie began to laugh uncontrollably.
"Why, WHY, do I like you?" Kairi muttered. Luckily Selphie didn't hear.
"Hmm? Well, Ok. I'll go back to my room! See you later!" Selphie ran off, while Kairi walked down through the corridor back into the First District. (There's a lot of walking in this fic, huh?)
"Hey, Sora!" Kairi said in her best Yuffie voice as she spotted Sora sitting alone. Kairi tried to hide her face with her newly dyed hair as much as possible.
"You look a little different, Yuf," Sora tried to look at her, but Kairi tried to turn away.
"Yeah. I...got some new makeup?"
Sora paused. "No, that's not it."
"Oh. Well, this is the real me," she grinned, of course it was as far from the truth as you could get.
"If you say so. Anyway, Yuffie, are we still on for Destiny Islands, tomorrow?"
"Destiny Islands? Tomorrow?" Kairi's eyes lit up. But then she realised...he'd already asked Yuffie. So she couldn't go. Unless she found a way to stop Yuffie from going...she was full of her evil plans. She liked being devious. It was fun.
"Yes...you didn't come to cancel, did you?"
"No, course not!"
"Then what did you want to say? Selphie said you wanted to see me."
"Oh..." Kairi tried to think. "I...just...wanted...to..." Kairi stopped, as she saw a familiar figure running over. Kairi got worried. What if it was Yuffie? She stood still and waited...but it was just Selphie.
"K...Yuffie," She looked over at Sora, then back at Kairi. "She's coming!" She whispered.
"What?" Kairi hissed back. "Not..."
"Yes! Her! Run away!" Selphie told her then rushed off herself.
"She's crazy, that girl," Sora laughed nervously. What was she up to?
"Y...yeah," Kairi's voice quivered. "Excuse me, one sec!" Kairi rushed behind a bush(the same one she hid in earlier!!) and didn't re-appear. She saw the real Yuffie greeting Sora.
"Hi again, where did you go?" Sora asked her.
"Where did I go? I dunno, I was just hanging around," She smiled. "I wanted to ask you something. Where shall we meet for Destiny Islands?"
"Um...accessory shop?"
"I'll be there," she announced.
"You look...not different," Sora hoped this made sense. Yuffie laughed.
"What?!"
"You look...like you. A minute ago you didn't!"
"A minute ago? What the hell?" Yuffie was now confused.
Then a scream could be heard, from the bush. "Get away from me!" Kairi's panicked voice could be heard.
"Isn't that...Kairi?" Sora got up.
"Evil Heartless!" Kairi cried as she fiercely battled one. Then she fell out from behind a bush, and laid on the ground for a moment. Still dressed as the ninja, of course.
"Hi, how ya doin'?" She said quickly, smiling sheepishly.
"You got tackled by a Shadow Heartless?" Yuffie wasn't paying attention to how Kairi looked, but threw a shuriken at the Heartless, defeating it instantly.
"Hello? Yuffie? Look at her." Yuffie then screamed as she saw her.
"K...Kairi? What's going on? You're...WEARING MY CLOTHES!!" She exclaimed. "I'll need to wash them about fifty times now..."
"Kairi? That was you, a second ago, huh?"
Kairi nodded, there was no other alternative now.
"Why?"
"I...um...oh, don't ask me such hard questions!" She jumped up and prepared to leave.
"No, Kairi. You'll tell us!" Yuffie piped in.
"I just...I wanted...you to like me, Sora."
"I do like you! As a friend..."
"Well I wanted more. OK?" Kairi got annoyed, and walked away. Sora and Yuffie didn't bother stopping her.
"So. Accessory shop around 11?" Yuffie grinned, changing the subject.
Sora smiled, happy for Yuffie doing so. "Sounds good. I can't wait till we get away...no Kairi, or anyone..."

Yay, chap 11! A little longer this time! Stay tuned for the next chapter, when they go to Destiny Islands! What will happen? Will Kairi return? R&R!
