Chapter 5 : Stars Shine Above Faded Dreams

A/n: Okies, people...only my good reviewers, aerisdono and katsfire
actually gave me reviews!! SO, now I am debating whether to write fluff
or not.... Between Sora and Kairi, of course. SO, guys, thanx for yr
support! Tell me the next review you write. K, story!

Donald poked the fire feverishly. It has been an hour since Sora and Kairi left to find firewood. Donald stood up, knocking the pail of boiling water in the process. "OWOWOWOWOWOW!!! Damn pail!" He kicked it, only to be scorched by the burning hot pail. A second painful shout was heard, to be followed by an immense wave of swear words. "Ahyuk, take it easy, Donald. Those two lovebirds need some catchin' up to do, ahyuk." Donald glared at Goofy. "Well, they can at least make up AFTER we finish this journey!! Can't he wait?!" Goofy shook his head. "Shucks, Donald. It's been 3 years since they last saw each other, ahyuk. Give them some time, will ya?" Donald clutched his burning foot (err.. whatever duck's feet are called ==;;) and hopped to the log and sat down. "Alright..but from then on, it's serious." Goofy laughed to himself. "Aww shucks... Donald's getting worried for his friend...ahyuk."

Meanwhile, somewhere at the other end of the forest, on a cliff..

"I can't believe you dragged me all the way out here, Sora. What are you trying to do, piss Donald off?" Sora laughed at her little remark. "No...I just wanted to have some time with you, that's all.... After all..it's been so long since I had a friendly chat with you." "Oh." And with that, she sat down next to Sora, her legs dangling over the cliff.(They are sitting at the edge of the cliff, mind you.) An akward silence passed between them. Finally, Kairi broke the silence by asking Sora "So...have.. you managed to..you know....find Riku?" Sora shook his head. "Nope... no sign of him... but I have heard his voice before...some where, telling me to keep going.." He turned and gazed out at the sea. "You remember this?" Sora looked at her with a puzzled look. "Huh..?" "I mean, do you remember the time, when we were alone, we looked out to the sea and I suggested we take the raft and go, just the two of us?" Sora smiled. "Yeah, I remember.. You asked me not to change...... I wonder why..?" Kairi stood up. "Sora, let's take the gummi ship and go! Just the two of us!!" Sora looked at her and just said "Wha...?" Kairi giggled and said "Heehe..just kidding." "What's gotten into you, Kairi? You've changed." Kairi giggled again.. They were replaying the whole scene again..and to add to the mood, the sun was just setting, the orange sun glowing faintly above the sea, making the sea sparkle. "Sora, do you know we're replaying the same thing we did back home?" "Yeah, I knew that." Kairi smiled...now was the time to act. "Well, then why don't we do something to make it a little...different."

And then she leaned in, kissing Sora on his lips, taking him by surprise. Sora couldn't move. He was totally captivated by this girl...... His life long friend ever since she came to Destiny Islands. Kairi's tongue probed gently at him, seeking permission to enter, which he granted. Sora loved her taste. It tasted of strawberries and vanilla. He closed his eyes, not wanting to forget this moment. Slowly and carefully, his arms crept to the Kairi's back and pulled her closer to him, making her deepen the kiss. Her arms wrapped around his neck, and they stayed in that position until they felt the need for oxygen. "Sora.. you're amazing, you know." He looked at her and smiled. The sun was making a flowing effect on her, making her glow a radiant color of orange. "I love you." Kairi kissed him once more, more passionate than ever before. "I love you too."

And to ruin that incredible moment, Donald's irritating voice rang out from deep within the forest. "SOOOORAA!! STOP YOUR LOVEY-DOVEY MOMENT WITH KAIRI THIS INSTANT AND GET YOUR BEHIND RIGHT HERE WITH THE FIREWOOD!" Sora groaned and hit his head with his hand. "Grrrr..that Donald.. he's gonna get a taste of my fist when I get back." Kairi laughed. "That's ok, Sora. We can do this anytime, anywhere..." Sora blushed a deep shade of pink. "Err...I ...err...ok..sure...er.. oh wow! Look at the time! We..we'd better go.." Kairi brushed her hand across his nose and said "You know, Sora, you're always cute when you get nervous." Sora blushed even redder, his cheeks feeling hot. Kairi grabbed his hand and dragged him, half running, half laughing back to where Donald and Goofy were.

In some evil part of the planet...

"Grr..why don't you go and take action already, you useless cub?" Said a deep female voice as she banged the table with a hard thud of her fist. "It isn't my fault, your majesty. It's just that...well.....how shall I put it..." A big booming laughter rang out. "Bwahahahah!! Just say you're scared of them, you useless thing! Just because Simba the lion king is there with them!" "Shut up, Oogie Boogie. You didn't seem to do much good either when you had the chance to destroy them." Oogie boogie flushed and shut up immediately. "Pardon me, your Majesty. If you can distract Simba away from them, I can easily destroy them." The owner belonging to the female voice sighed. "Alright. I shall create a distraction for you. But you must bring me the wielder of the Keyblade along with the Princess of Heart, then you can have the duck and the funny looking dog for supper." "But your majesty, I don't think Scar will be able to do it, because, he is a mere animal and protected with claws and fangs only. May I suggest.." The one that just spoke couldn't finish his words as he felt an immensely sharp tip of a sword at the temple of his throat. "Well, Jafar, YOU didn't seem to do anything at all....So why don't we let the little pussycat here to try his luck..and besides....he won't be alone in this." The sword left his temple and he breathed a heavy relief. "Alright, you highness... We shall do it your way this time."

Whoa..that's kinda long....well...I don't know...it was long to me.. anyways, Sora and Co.'s first battle will begin next chappie, so stay tuned! And about the fluff, gimme comments and I will see which one is more.... So reviewing is very important.

Kairi shouting behind "Ah, leave yr crap behind already! They know how to review themselves, you stupid..." Errr, ok..CENSORED....
