Med: (uncharacteristically calm) Hello. And welcome to another installment of "The Legend of Kingdom Hearts".

Zelda: (also uncharacteristically calm) We hope you enjoy it fully well.

Link: And please do not mind the thoughtless violence that will pop up in the future.

Kari and readers: o.0 Link doesn't like violence?! And isn't stupid?!

Sora: (what do you think?) Yes, my brothers and sisters have immersed themselves into a new state of being.

Kari: Excuse my language, but WHAT THE (censor)?!! Are you guys on crack or something!?

(snickering is heard in the background) (Kari runs behind a rock that just appeared and pulls out a snickering Kail, Med, Zelda, Link, and Sora)

Kari: What's going on?

Zelda: Kail made these clones of us for some fun.

Kail: And you actually believed them? (he and the gang start laughing again)

Kari: (pissed beyond relief) Oh you want something to laugh at? I'll give you something to laugh at!

This scene has been removed for violence that the author doesn't want kiddies that may be reading this to see. Thank you for your cooperation again and enjoy the chapter. I don't get paid enough for this job...(smack) OW!

Author's Note 1: Sorry for the lateness. Dad wouldn't let me on as much as normal, so I couldn't type as much. And I also have another story to pay attention to. Today's dedication goes to Kinoarashi, the lone author! (clapping and whistling)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------

Kari woke up late the next morning. As she rubbed her drowsy eyes, Yuna's celebration struck her mind. Out of surprise (and some clumsiness) she stumbled out of bed, causing her to disrupt Zelda, who let out a surprised scream, making Kari scream, making Link and Sora wake up to two screaming girls at 10:00 am. (A/N: Super Sentence!)

"Are we being attacked again?" they asked dully.

Kari and Zelda gave each other embarrassed looks before shaking their heads at them. The boys went back to sleeping soundly at the answer.

"Sorry," whispered Kari.

"No problem, really, I was about to wake up," Zelda answered her, though by the look on her face she seemed like she was lying.

Kari began making her bed slowly, musing on what to give Yuna for the celebration with Zelda quietly.

"Can you think of anything yet?" she asked her.

"Not a thing for now."

"...Darn." Kari finished up her bed, bade Zelda a silent "See ya at breakfast!", and left the room, thinking about paying Kail a good morning along the way.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------

As Kari had thought, she found Kail with his ship just outside the village.

"Good morning!" she called to him as she walked over. When Kail turned around, she dropped the smile.

By the looks of it, he had been up all night working: baggy eyes, bed hair, and his attire were smudged beyond relief.

"G-g-good morning," he answered, helping himself to a long yawn. "This baby should be up and running by evening."

"You've been up all night working on this?" Kari asked him. "You need sleep!"

"As soon as I get the job done, I can have some sleep later. R-right now I need to..." He fell asleep right there.

"Right..." Kari rolled her eyes at his naivety. Noticing her rumbling stomach, she left him there, though she couldn't help but notice how cute he looked asleep.

#

At breakfast the gang (minus Kail) met up at a table. Though after a few minutes of thorough looking and eating, Kari couldn't help but wonder-

"Where's Yuna?"

"Relafx," Link said through a mouthful of food. "'E's fomebwhere around here." Zelda made a noise of annoyance, but otherwise left Link to his habits.

"Still..."

"Don't worry about her," came Lulu's voice from behind.

"Where've you been all this time, Miss Goth?" Sora asked her as he reached over for more pancakes. Lulu stared at him.

"...Meditating. And it's Lulu."

Sora shrugged and went back to eating. Lulu was about to make her leave when Zelda stopped her.

"Aren't you hungry?" she asked her politely.

Lulu stopped walking. Without turning, she shook her head, and then continued down the path.

"That's an odd one, isn't she?" Sora asked as he cut his pancakes into quarters. At this point, the others couldn't help but agree.

After finishing (which took some time due to Link and Sora as always), they decided to check out the beach Besaid offered. (though they kept the same clothes on for some reason)

While Zelda and Link laid on some towels borrowed from Yuna's closet to catch some rays, Sora and Kari couldn't help but play around like kids. Lulu and Wakka decided to accompany them after a long while, one sitting on a chair flipping through the pages of her book, the other showed Kari and Sora sea creatures. Lulu didn't get much done, though, because of Kari's constant shouting of "Oooh"s and "Aaaahhh"s.

"I can't help it," Kari said when she brought up the subject. "I rarely have time to see creatures like these." Lulu merely shook her head and left.

"Why'd she bother coming then?" Sora asked to no one in particular.

Suddenly, a large shadow appeared over them. Everyone stopped and stared as a large reddish UFO started to lower down to them. Link slowly took his shades off.

"Oh...my...god..." he said gradually.

The ship stopped a few yards above the ground. Something clicked and a small bridge that led to the ground appeared. Someone began walking down the steps.

The girl seemed very excited about something; she couldn't stand still. All she wore was a light red jump suit with small ribbons and zippers and short green pants. When she opened her mouth, though...

"Yuna's fyedehk! Lusa yr!" (1)

"Alright, already!" Wakka shouted to her. He turned to the confused group. "You guys are in for a treat. Just get on board and Yuna will explain everything."

&

The inside of the ship put the Prime Star to shame. The main part of it had a large (and I mean large) screen to look through. Two seats parted at the front; one being for the driver, the other for computer inputs and such. In the middle of the room stood a large, clear sphere that seemed to relay the entire world of Besaid.

"Wow..." the entire group murmured in awe. The bridge closed behind them with a click and the shop took off.

"'Wow' is correct," said the same girl who yelled out the cryptic message with a grin. "I built this baby!"

A door off to their right opened with a swoosh and Yuna, accompanied by Kail and another man they didn't know walked through. Kail had a dazed look on him, as though someone had slapped him hard; the ship seemed too much for him.

The man turned to the girl. "Eht fryd ypuid sa? E tet sucd uv tra fung!" (2)

The girl stared him down "Ur oayr?!" (3)

As the two squabbled, Yuna walked over to them and apologized for their behavior. "They sometimes can't stand each other," she told them.

"If you don't mind me askin," Link said, "who are they and what are they speaking in?"

"Oh, that's Rikku and Brother. They're speaking in Al Bhed. Kinda hard to understand. Anyway, where's Wakka and Lulu?"

"Wakka's probably on the island somewhere," Kari answered. "As for Lulu, we don't know."

"Thought so. By the way, this ship is called the Celsius if you're wondering."

The grouping wandered about the ship for a while, from the engine room (Kail) to the cabin for some rest (Zelda) all the way to the top of the ship itself (Sora and Link). Kari stayed behind for one question.

"Where are we going exactly, Yuna?" she asked her.

"We're going to a secret place far away from the island. We picked up signals of some treasure down in there and thought you guys would be up for some treasure hunting. Nice little surprise, isn't it?"

"Cool!"

They landed a few minutes later (to the dismay of Link, Sora, and Kari, who all wanted to stick around on it) nearby the secret place. Rikku told them they were going to be picked up in a couple of hours. Everyone was equipped with a shovel and bucket at this point, though Link was a little uncomfortable without his Master Sword in hand.

"Anything can attack us at any given moment," he commented when they entered the caves.

The caves were near pitch black inside. Yuna lit a lantern and continued forward. Their footsteps echoed in the silent cave; it creeped Kari out. After a while, it started to become a little monotonous. Everything from the footsteps to the dripping water became annoying.

"Are we almost there?" Sora asked with a little desperation.

"Almost," came Yuna's answer. "Just a little more- ah! Here we are!"

They now reached a large grotto. Glowing lights in the cave gave off an eerie glow. Along with the constant dripping, though, voices were now heard among it.

"Have we found it yet, sir?"

"For the billionth time, not yet, stupid!" said a gruff voice.

"...............Now, sir?"

A loud roar of annoyance echoed around them. A small flickering red light began emitting from the other side of the cave; chokes and gargling were heard. Not even a few seconds afterwards, the body was thrown towards the group. When it reached the ground in front, Zelda couldn't help but scream at the bloody body in front of them. This caught the attention of the murderer.

"Whose there?" he called out.

Something (or someone) walked slowly to a side of the wall and clicked a switch. Everything became illuminated as the murderer stared them down.
If it's rushed, very sorry! I hope to get the next one up fast!

Coming up next: Mister Murderer has a boss fight with the gang. Can they survive with only their shovels, buckets, and magic? Tune in next time to-

(muffled sounds as Kail puts his hand over her mouth)

Everyone 'cept Med: SHUT UP!

Al Bhed Translations

1. "Yuna's waiting! Come on!"

2. "And what about me? I did most of the work!"

3. "Oh yeah?!"

Also, should I add more Al Bhed in the future? It may not seem important now, but it may affect this world I'm thinking of.

Kinoarashi: I meant "ally" as in the person who helps the person out most. (i.e. Tarzan in Deep Jungle) Good world, though! Just add the ally in next review.

Master of the Dark Trio: Oh okay. I'll read some later. Thank ya for the review!
