Chapter 6: Tour

Kairi and Milo ran up a whole bunch of stairs until they got to a pink door with a happy face on it. Milo opened the door and stepped inside. He waved at Kairi for her to follow. When she walked in she saw dandelions painted on the walls. The bed had pink sheets and a giant brown teddy bear on it. The dresser was a regular oak one that was very shiny. It had a small sheet of lace on top. Everything else was completely covered with dust.

"Wow, this room is so big!" she exclaimed. "Did it really used to be mine?"

"Mmm-hmm," answered Milo. "You used to have a dog too. She disappeared shortly after you did. She was a Great Dane, I think. And her name was Ku-Kuka… Oh, I can't remember."

"Kukamai?" asked Kairi.

"Yeah, that was her name. Did you remember that just now?"

"No. I had a dog where I used to live that was a Great Dane and was called Kukamai. I think she might've gone with me when I disappeared. She was one of my best friends. You see, I used to live on an island, and of course I was isolated from other places, so I didn't have many friends. A friend of mine's mom took care of me until I was old enough to take care of myself. Then I moved to my own house and finally found a way to go to other places."

"It must be fun to go wherever you want. You know, out of your world," said Milo. "You see, I've never been out of this world, even out of this castle, and I would give anything to see other worlds."

"How 'bout this," said Kairi. "Once I'm done looking for who I'm looking for, I'll take you to every place imaginable."

"You mean you're not staying here? I would love to do that with you, but I've only just met you. I would want to get to know you better."

"I know. I just came here for a little family reunion. I don't plan to stay for very long. I'm sorry, Milo."

"Well, let's talk about this later," he said. "Let's go down and see the garden. I'm really sure you'd love it."

He got up and walked out of the room. Kairi followed closely behind. While walking behind him, she thought about what she had said to him. Was it true that she had come there for a little family reunion, or had she just come there because Naoki had told her to?

She didn't even know how long she was going to stay.

"So, Kairi," said Milo. "Did you know that this castle and kingdom are over 500 years old?"

"No, I didn't," she answered.

"Well, now you do. This castle also used to have a moat."

"How come it's not there anymore?"

"After about a century, the kingdom no longer had any threats, so the king at the time filled up the moat with dirt. It was after that that we were attacked by a mysterious group of people called the Marauders. But once we destroyed them we never got attacked again and the kingdom once again regained peace."

"Wow. You must study a lot."

"Yeah, my teachers require me to. So do my parents. This place gets really boring after a while."

"Yeah, being cooped up like you have been for all of your life doesn't sound like much fun," said Kairi.

They went out of the castle and turned left. She saw all sorts of flowers and plants ahead of her.

"Welcome to the royal garden," said Milo.

"It's beautiful," commented Kairi.

She looked around at the various plants and flowers. There were fuchsias, lilies, roses, lilacs, tulips, sunflowers, some in colors she had never even seen before. Of course there were other plants and flowers that didn't even recognize. But there was one particular one that caught her attention.

It had petals that looked like the symbol on Riku's chest before. You know the one with the sticks inside the heart with leaves?

"What is that flower called?" she asked.

"I don't know," answered Milo. "I've never seen it before, and trust me; I do come here a lot."

"That's strange," Kairi thought. "I should probably come out here again tonight and check it out."

She decided she would do that that night and followed Milo out of the garden. They went into the castle again and went up a smaller flight of stairs. At the top of the stairs they went into a dining hall, whose maids and butlers were preparing various foods and setting them on the humungous wooden table.

Kairi's mouth watered as she saw the chicken, roast beef, freshly baked garlic bread, fresh fruit, and different kinds of salad. While she was gaping at the food her parents came into the dining hall.

"Let's eat," said the queen. "I'm sure you're very hungry, Kairi."

They all down to eat and Kairi immediately started digging in. She tried the chicken first and it was delicious, then the salad which was also delicious, and then she tried everything else because she knew it would probably be delicious also. Her parents started eating after her. They looked sort of flabbergasted at her rude behavior. She didn't care, though. She hadn't eaten anything in over a week. It felt so good to gorge again!
