A Book Without A Name...
Chapter 7: Snow Covered Dreams
I'm sorry it took me so long to update. I have more of an explanation on my profile page I think. I've been busy, and had writer's block. (Same old stuff) I love writing this story, and I will continue when I can. I also am planning on starting another KH fan fiction.

"Kairi, you can't expect to keep her here. We don't know anything about children." An annoyed Cid growled at the red head.
"What about Yuffie?" Leon mumbled under his breath.
"Hey! I heard that." A angry voice boomed from the other side of the room.
A small smile spread across Kairi's lips. Cid had to know something about children. Then the smile faded as she spoke. "I couldn't leave her. What was I supposed to do. As long as I'm here I'm going to take care of her." Her deep blue eyes become intent on watching the floor. "I know what it's like to not have a family, to be alone. I won't let some one else feel that pain if I can help it. That's why I'll take care of her. If I don't who will."
"Okay, I guess she can stay, but you are in charge of her got it." Kairi nodded. She glanced through the door way and watched the small child sleep on a bed. She would take care of her like a big sister. That girl had no one else left in the world. Kairi remembered a time when she was just like that. But then she still had some one. She had Sora, the boy who found her laying in the sand beside the ocean, the boy who became her best friend. Well maybe just maybe there was a little more to it then just that.
(This is based of the KH Magna. If you would like to read it just go to there should be a link to it there.)
A young girl with reddish brown hair laid face down alone on a sandy beach. The ocean waves gently washed over her skin. Her closed eyes opened reviling sapphire blue eyes. The girl was barely seven. She had no idea where she was or who she had been. She just had a faint idea that this was not where she belonged. The girl continued to lay on the beach afraid an unmoving, but then she heard a voice.
"Who... are you." The cheery voice asked. A boy no older than her had kneeled down beside her. His messy brown hair blew in the calm ocean breeze. "Where did you come from...?"
She was still frightened. Who wouldn't be in the condition she was in now? But there was something about him that told her it was okay. That was the first time Kairi meet Sora.
"Hey, Kairi! Are you okay?" Yuffie voice brought her back to reality.
"I'm fine."
"Oh, you just looked like you were about to pass out or something."
Kairi shook her head. "No, I'm fine. I promise. I was just thinking." She sighed. " I think I'm going to go take a nap.
"Yeah that would probably be a good idea." Leon told her.
Yuffie smiled. "You can sleep in that room over there." She pointed to a closed door. "Sweet dreams, Kairi."

'Blood...'
'Pain..'
'There's so much of it...'
A icy waste land lay in front of her. The setting sky was painted red. The glow of the retreating sun was the only light besides the orange fire still burning a couple of the once cozy houses. The smell of ashes, blood, and death drifted upon the dry wind, and the falling snow. It looked to like it had once been a small village maybe it had been just a few hours before. Now it was just a grave yard. The wind blew and she shivered as she walked through the remains of what had been. Her heart became lodged in her throat. Dead bodies lay in the street. A few tears ran down her cheeks. What would do something this horrible. She knew only one thing that could be this dark. It had to have been the heartless.
"I'm sorry, Kai."
"Sora?"
She turned slowly turned around. He was there standing right behind her. " I'm sorry. I can't control where I meet you. This is part of a world I tried to protect." He walked past Kairi, and bent down picking up a small doll in the snow. " I wasn't aware that this village was being attacked at the time. While me and some others protected another village this one fell to the heartless." He frowned. His eyes gave her a sad feeling that strike her right in the heart.
She whipped the fallen tears of her cheeks. "It's wasn't your fault." He turned away from her and slowly shook his head. " I know you probably feel like you should have been there, but it still wasn't your fault. It was their fault."
"The heartless..." Sora whispered. He turned around and walked towards her. "Kairi, the reason I'm here is to tell you that you need to find the key."
"The key?" Kairi looked at him questioningly. "Do you mean the keyblade?"
"No, It's a different kind of key." He grabbed her hand and squeezed it. "It's part of how I need you to help. I would have told you about it last time, but Riku and I just found out about it. Nothing can be done without this key."
"But Sora where am I supposed to find it? I still don't know how else I'm supposed to help you. I feel like I fell in ten feet of water, and I can't swim."
"Don't worry so much. You can do this, Kai. All you have to do it believe in yourself a little." He smiled at her. Though the world around her was snowy and cold that smile made her feel warm again. " I promise you will know what you have to do when the time comes, and you will find the key. Actually you may have already. Just open your eyes and look."
"Another promise huh?"
"Yeah I guess so."
"Okay I'll look."
Kairi opened her eyes. Her heart was racing. Sweet dripped down her forehead. 'Get a grip of yourself it was just a dream.' She noticed her hands had been gripping a white blanket. Kairi released it and instead dug her nails into her palm. "It was just a dream." She reassured herself.
"Hey, Mirai aren't you hungry." Kairi asked. The little girl just shook her head. She didn't have much of an appetite, and Kairi couldn't blame her. After everything she had seen, and went through the past day she wouldn't be surprised if the girl locked herself in a room and cried her eyes out.
Kairi was sitting with Mirai at the "base's" kitchen table. That was what Leon, Yuffie, and Cid now referred to their small house as. The three were out in the garage working on something. Every once in a while you could hear the sounds of Cid's cursing, or Leon and Yuffie's bickering.
The door attached to the garage burst open. Cid steeped through with a huge grin on his face. "Kairi I finished it."
"Finished what?"
"The ship I've been working on. I've decided to give it to you. You'll need it to help Sora, and the worlds." She couldn't believe that she actually had a way to go to other worlds now. Why hadn't she thought to ask Cid about a ship earlier. Kairi couldn't wait to leave. She wished she could tell Sora she had a way to leave. Now she would defiantly be able to help him.
Kairi's eyes grew wide. "Really your going to give me the ship." A piece of her hair feel into her face and she pulled it back into place.
"Yep you better go name her before I change my mind."
"Hey, how did you know I was supposed to be helping Sora?"
"He told me you would need the ship. He also said that you should go to the place you saw in your last dream first. I don't know what he meant, but I'm sure you do. Last night he talked to me while I was asleep just for a couple minutes. You should leave as soon as you can, and take Mirai with you. I have a feeling she's important."
Kairi stood up, and gave Cid a huge hug. Cid didn't know what to do. He sort of half frowned then smiled. "Thanks Cid." Kairi let go.
"It's no big deal." He shrugged it off.
"Yes it is." Kairi told him. "Mirai will it be okay if we leave tomorrow. We're going to go to different worlds to help my friend."
"Okay," The five year old said. " I've never been to another world before."
Umm I would normally thank everyone for reviewing down here personally, but I'm not sure where I stopped. So I'm just going to say thank so much to everyone who reviewed. Oh and please don't yell at me too much for not updating in such a long time.
