"You're too slow," Riku exclaimed as Sora lunged at him, and he simply stepped away.

Sora's face came into a pout and he threw his wooden sword down, "Fine, I give up."

Kairi laughed, and leant her back against the stone wall of the Secret Place, "Aw, come on, Sora. You're never going to learn anything from that."

Sora made a snorting sound and sat next to her, leaning his head against her shoulder, "Riku was being mean."

Riku laughed, and shook his head, his sliver hair swaying back and forth, "I just said you were too slow."

" I AM NOT TOO SLOW!" Sora bit back, stubbornly, and crossed his arms across his chest.

Riku laughed again, harder this time, and slid down the wall next to Sora, "Okay." It came out in a choke.

Kairi giggles became shrill and she buried her face in her knees to prevent Sora from hearing them.

Sora glared at them, his baby blue eyes narrowed in annoyance, "Fine, laugh all you want." His face broke out in a cheesy grin, "I AM THE KEY BLADE MASTER!"

Sora grabbed his sword, and shot up, aiming it at Riku. Riku stopped laughing, and looked up at Sora with his blue-green eyes. A choke came from deep in his throat, and Kairi's laughter died.

Riku's chest shook, and he bursted, grabbing his stomach as he fell to the side, laughing harder. Kairi, who was unable to control herself, began to giggle, and bury her face in her hands.

"It's not funny!" Sora complained, and stomped his foot, but he fell for his own tricks, and he soon was shaking with laughter.

There was a shuffle.

"What was that?" Riku's laughter stopped, and he shot up.

Kairi and Sora stopped and looked at Riku in confusion.

"What's the matter, Riku?" Kairi asked, her voice still slightly shaking.

Riku's brow wrinkled and he stood up, poking his head around the boulder that was blocking his view of the entrance.

He froze, and Sora turned and looked in Riku's eye direction.

A tall cloaked figure stood in the door, its head bowed, and the darkness of the hood covered the face of its wearer. The sleeves were together in front of the cloaked person.

There was a scuffle, and Kairi's head rested against Sora's shoulder.

Thinking it was Wakka, Selphie, or Tidus, Sora stepped forward, "Cut it out, you guys."

The cloaked figure raised its head, and the light from the roof made them capable of seeing the bottom half of the figure's face. Their skin was a pale green, and their lips seemed to stand out, with their pink color, and they broke into a smile.

Riku, in front, stuck his arm out to the side, and stepped back, pushing Sora and Kairi with him. It couldn't have been the three they thought it was. Could it?

The Figure took a step forward, their stride was a glide more than a step. But instead of taking another step, its head turned to look at the markings on the wall beside them.

It turned its body, and the three gasped as they saw a magnificent pair of see-through, pinkish fairy wings, sticking out from the cloak. The figure turned back, and took another glide.

"What do you want?" Riku's voice was shaky, which surprised even him.

The figure cocked its head, and pulled its hand away from the sleeve. Its delicate hand was also a pale green. The haunting smile never seemed to leave their face. It snapped its fingers, and they just simply vanished.

Kairi made a soft whimper, "What was that?" Her voice was unusually tiny.

"I don't know," Sora whispered. "Riku, do you think it's a Heartless?"

Riku cleared his throat, "I- I don't know."

"Hey guys!" A voice startled them from their nervous silence. Selphie poked her head through the entrance, "A new family just moved in, you have to come check this out!"

She titled her head, confused about the three faces of pale shock, "What's the matter? You guys look like you just saw a ghost."

"There was know way that anyone on Destiny Island could have been that cloaked figure," Sora stated, following Selphie.

"Why is that?" Riku asked.

"Because, no one, except us, knows how to use magic," Sora said, obviously proud of his concept. He folded his hands behind his head.

"I think, that it was a fairy, or more like she was a fairy," Kairi suddenly said.

Riku shrugged, "Maybe."

Sora ducked his head as he came out of the Secret Place, "I guess we will just have to keep our eyes peeled."

~*~

"There's a girl and mother," Selphie chatted, unaware that no one was listening to her.

"The girl looks around our age, and she's so beautiful!"
"Did you get her name, Selphie?" Kairi asked, walking ahead to walk next to her friend.

"No, but it something weird, I can't remember."

"Great, another girl on the island, and I thought two was enough," Riku joked.

Selphie and Kairi stopped, "HEY! That wasn't funny!"

"Navi, sweetie, this is your knew home," A tall, pale women said to a girl that looked like she was 14 or so.

"I have a feeling I'm going to like it here," Navi smiled, and she grinned harder when her eyes came across palm trees, and beautiful waves.

"Good."

"Is there an extra bedroom?" Navi asked absently, as she looked around.

"Yes, but dear, there is a very slim chance that Cloud will ever come back," Navi's mother said.

Navi stiffened, and lowered her head.

Her mother sighed, "Oh well." She turned and left.

Navi sighed also, and looked around, smiling when she saw a group of kids that looked around her age come towards her.

~*~
"Whoa!" That was all that Sora could say.

A delicate looking girl stood on the isle, her shoulder length. Strawberry blonde hair wiped at her face, and she tied a turquoise hair band in her hair. She had a turquoise halter top on, that seemed to cut above the belly button, and a white skirt with a turquoise and light blue scarf tied around her waist.

"I told you," Selphie exclaimed.

Riku mearly looked at her beauty, she was gorgeous. This was the new girl? Wow.

Kairi squealed and walked across the bridge, meeting her in the isle. The rest followed.

"Hi, you must be new."

The girl turned, she had a pair of shocking green eyes, "Oh, yes." Her voice was light, yet strong.

"Well, I'm Kairi," Kairi stated, then pointed to the group. "That's Selphie." Selphie jumped up, "HI!"

"And that's Sora and Riku." They nodded, and Sora waved, but Riku gave a shy hello.

"I'm Navi," The girl stated, laughing.

Riku smiled, Navi.

~*~

"So, Navi, what are you doing here?" Riku managed to find his strong voice. They were sitting on the Paopu Tree, and Navi was absentmindedly putting on her strap clogs, with a tiny blue star on each heal. Riku noticed a small fairy tattooed on her hip.

"Oh, this is the closest place we could find to Hollow Bastion," Navi said, flipping her hair behind her shoulders.

"Why does it have to be close to Hollow Bastion?" Sora asked, lying down on the tree.

A look of discomfort came across her face; "We're. um. looking for someone."

And that was the end of that.

"Oh, I see," Kairi said, noticing the look she gave. Navi nodded, "Yeah."

Then, there was a whoosh of a cloak, and a heavy footstep on the bridge.

Navi's ears perked, and she squinted her eyes. She jumped down from the tree, and turned to the bridge. Navi gave a gasp, and ran across.

The group turned, and Sora and Riku jumped, startled. Why was Cloud standing on the bridge, and they gave another jump when Navi jumped into his arms.
