Yay! The 6th chapter has finally arrived! I'm sorry I haven't updated sooner, but my friend and I had a disagreement, so I really didn't feel like updating. But not to worry! My friend and I made up, so now we're friends again! Oh, and to clarify something from the last chapter, I AM WRITING THIS STORY ON PAPER BEFORE I ACTUALLY TYPE IT. No, I'm not done writing it down yet, but I promise I won't discontinue the story, just remind me that I wrote this if I mention ANYTHING about discontinuing this story. Thank you :)

*see chapter 1 for disclaimer*

Chapter 6: Campout

Sora, Kairi, Riku, and Ari all stayed on the beach, putting up the tents and starting a campfire. Kairi was out getting firewood, and Ari was trying to start a flame.

Sora and Riku were putting up the tents, but their 'tents' looked more like deformed elephants.

"Here, let me show you how it's done." Ari said with a smile, disregarding the fact that no one was there to watch the now burning fire.

In a matter of minutes, Ari had turned the jumble of sticks and cloth into two large tents.

"How do you know how to set up tents?" Riku asked.

"My family and I go camping every summer, and because I don't have any brothers or sisters, my dad taught me all the camping basics." Ari answered. "Like how to put up a tent that actually looks like a tent."

Riku couldn't help but feel slightly embarrassed at the comment. Ari was teasing him. Of course, it was oblivious to both of them that she was doing it, because she liked him.

Riku glanced at Ari. He noticed her giggling at him as she walked over to Kairi so she could help her with the firewood.

That night they laughed and talked as they ate their dinner, which was fish, and Ari overheard a most interesting conversation Kairi was having with the boys.

"So, how'd you guys get back to the Destiny Islands, anyways?" Kairi asked.

Sora was the first to answer. "Well, Donald and Goofy brought me back here with the Gummi Ship. They said I should hang out with my friends before the Heartless come back. I mean, if they do come back."

"Let's hope they don't come back." Kairi said. "What about you, Riku?"

"Yeah." Sora interrupted. "How did you get out of Kingdom Hearts exactly?"

"You know how we sealed Kingdom Hearts?" Riku asked.

"Yeah," Sora said, "just tell us what happened!!"

"Ok, ok!" Riku answered. "Well, after the door shut, there was this HUGE explosion of light, then all the Heartless disappeared, and there was this door that appeared in front of me. I heard someone say that everything was going to be all right. So, I opened the door, and the next thing I knew, I was back home."

"That's weird." Sora commented.

"Well, I'm kinda tired, so I'm gonna turn in for the night." Kairi said

"Yeah," Sora agreed, "it is pretty late, lets all go to sleep."

So, the four friends went into their tents, and got ready for bed.

"Pleasant dreams!" Riku yelled from the boys' tent, and everyone fell asleep.
