Chapter One
When all the worlds were restored, Sora went away to help find the King. Kairi waited for his return. And she waited, until finally somewhat miraculously, Sora returned almost five years later. Both were so excited to finally see each other, that Sora, took Kairi's hand in marriage. Riku hadn't returned, and it made both Sora and Kari guilty, but they had to let it go. Sora understood why he never returned. His best friend, gone. Now at twenty-five, Sora and Kairi had their first child, a baby girl named Hikari.
As the young girl grew looking more and more like her mother but acting like her father, her parents never told her of the past that had happened. She never knew about anything, not even Riku. All she knew was Destiny Islands and the nice ocean around it.
Now, Hikari was 16 and very spunky, like her father. She sat on of the drooping paopu fruit tree looking out at the horizon. The warm ocean breeze picked up a bit blowing her shoulder length brown hair against her neck. She had her mother's soft blue eyes. She sighed softly and stretched her arms a bit. She wore black pants that seemed to be skin tight but flared at the ends, and she had black shoes. She wore belts in a criss-cross like form around her waist. She also wore a green peasant shirt and a small chain around her neck that was the same thing her father wore when he was younger. She also wore gloves that cut off at her knuckles and reached up her elbows, but because of her shirt, no one was able to see them reach that far.
"What are you doing up there?" a male's voice called from behind her.
"Whoa!" she jumped a bit and almost fell off the trunk of the tree and into the water, but she grabbed the trunk and swung below it. The male laughed again as she peered her head to the side to see who it was.
"Jeez Hikari, you sure are easy to startle." He laughed again. He looked to be about Hikari's age with short spiky platinum blonde hair and bright green eyes. He wore something similar to what Riku had when he was around. Only difference was that wear it was yellow, was blue. He was an ancestor of Riku though he never knew it. Hikari sighed and smirked a bit as she swung herself back up onto the tree.
"Why do you have to do that to me Tannim?" she straddled the trunk of the tree. He laughed
"So what were you doing up there?" he asked as he leaned against the tree. She grinned and jumped down and tapped him on the head with her wooden sword. He looked up at her rubbing the back of his head.
"I was thinking."
"About?"
"Nothing that would concern you that's for sure." She laughed. He smirked.
"Sometimes I try to figure out who you are more like, your father or mother." He stood up straight and grabbed his sword taking a fighting position. She turned to him and rested the wooden toy on her shoulder. She smirked.
"Wanna go?" she asked him. He nodded; she turned around and took a small fighting position. Both charged towards each other and hit the wooden swords with a 'clunk'. About five times of that and there was a splash. Tannim had fallen over the side and into the water; Hikari peered over and laughed at him.
"That wasn't very nice Hikari!" he called from below. She stuck her tongue out and rested her sword on her shoulder again. Not much longer after she did that when she felt someone push her from behind and she fell into the water. She came up gasped for air and flipped her hair back. She looked up and lo and behold it was her father, Sora.
"Dad!?" she yelled as she tread water. He laughed with a deep tone. He looked a lot older now. Now at about 41, he looked that age, but everyone around him wasn't too sure if he acted like it. She shook her head grabbed her sword and swam around the other side to the ladder and climbed up. He was leaning against the tree as he watched her come up.
"Learn your lesson?" he asked.
"No, but you shouldn't sneak up on me like that!" Hikari argued. Sora laughed again as Tannim climbed up from behind.
"Well, if it taught you something it's good. Come on, your mother has dinner waiting for us. Oh and Tannim, your parents decided to join us for dinner you can come along if you wish." Sora said as he turned around and walked off. Tannim and Hikari looked at each other and then took off quickly for the bridge.
After dinner that night, Hikari wandered up to her room. She sat on her bed and looked outside watching the stars. Sora and Kairi were down stairs cleaning up. As Kairi stood there cleaning Sora helped to dry them.
"Sora?" Kairi asked softly. Sora put away a plate and looked at his wife.
"Yes?"
"Tonight, will mark almost thirty-seven years since the island was destroyed and brought back." She said not once looking up. Sora sighed softly and walked over kissing her cheek gently.
"You can't feel guilty about what happened. That was the past, this is the future." He said. Kairi sighed and cleaned the last dish and handed it to Sora.
"I know, but somehow I have this bad feeling."
"Like what?" he asked as he put the dish away.
"I don't know."
"Then try not to worry about it." He walked up to her and kissed her lips softly. She smiled and the two of them wandered off to bed.
