* SCENE IV *

____________________________________________________

--She looks around at the sky then the ground. The sun reflecting from the key touched the ground about ten feet ahead of them. Kairi runs to the light. There, the grass is withered and dead. She pushes away dirt to discover a small trap door. It's made of wood and has rusted iron clasps.

Kairi: Here it is!

Riku: What, more keys?

--SMACK!!!

Riku: Ouch-kabibles! That really hurt.

Kiari: Oops, my hand slipped.

Sora: Is this were that man is hiding?

Kairi: Nope, it's my own personal armory.

All: Huh?

Kairi: Weapons shed!

All: Oh!

Sora: But why?

Kairi: I'm not goin' after him without pertection!

Riku: Hehehe (snickers and giggles)

--KICK (oh, you now where)

Riku: Oh, GOD!!! What the f***! Woman! That is so frickin' out of line!

Kairi: Sorry, my leg slipped.

Sora: Are you okay, Riku? Do you need any help?

Riku: Sorry, but I doubt that anyone can help with this!

Sora: Are you sure?

Riku: VERY! Now let's see if I can at least stand up. (tries to stand) Nope! Not gonna happen! Oh, Jesus, give me strength! If not strength in my special place, then at least get my legs out of shock!

Kairi: Oh, stop it can't hurt that much!

Donald & Goofy: Oh, yes it can!

Riku: This package was imported from Japan! Handle with care, Kairi! HANDLE WITH CARE!!!! Kowareyasui! Jissai no kowareyasui! Watashi no naka de itami!!! (trans.: "Fragile! Very fragile! I'm in pain!!!")

Sora: Everything is gonna be okay.

--Sora helps Riku stand and pulls one of Riku's arms over his shoulder.

Riku: Domo. Now make sure that b***h over there stays at least 5 feet away at all times.

Kairi: What the f***?!

Goofy: Gawrsh, this is getting' on my last nerve!

Donald: Yeah, we've got a mission, too. We have to get back to the castle so that I can plead my wife for forgiveness...

Goofy: Then I have to plead my boss for forgiveness so I can get my job back...

Both: Then we have to tell Minnie that Mickey's dead and that he's gay!

Kairi: There's a fork in the road ahead. I'm sure that one of the routes goes to that castle. Meanwhile, wait for me while I grab my ammo and artillery. Sora, can you give me a hand?

Sora: Oh, sure. (gulp)

--Sora and Kairi make their way into her armory shed. It is dark and damp. She turns a switch that lights the room with low light. Kairi sorts through some guns and chooses a sniper rifle, AK47, and (2) 9mm automatics. She sets them on a desk then turns to Sora.

Kairi: I know that I've mostly been a burden, but I just want you to know that this evil, tough exterior isn't really me. Well, maybe it is. But when I'm around you, I feel gentle. Simple and clean, Sora! That's it, simple and clean is the way that you make me feel! It's so hard to let it go. Hold me, Sora, just hold me! What ever lies beyond this morning, or a little later on. Sora, the future dosen't scare me at all when I'm with you. Oh, Sora, I just want you to now that, and also that I.....I...

Sora: Yes, Kairi.

--She lunges forward and kisses Sora. Sora stands there frozen. Kairi holds him tighly.

Kairi: (whispers) I'll never leave your side again, Sora. I'll never let you go!

--A tear rushes down the side of her face.

Sora: Oh, Kairi. Kairi I'm sorry.

Kairi: Why?

Sora: I knew this would happen.

Kairi: Tell me.

Sora: I hate myself for feeling this way and breaking your heart.

Kairi: What the f***?

Sora: I'm so sorry!

Kairi: But I...I love you, Sora!

Sora: I love you, too, Kairi, but I'm...

Kairi: Oh, no! No, I won't listen!

Sora: I didn't want to hurt you.

Kairi: When did you find out; why didn't you tell me? Does anyone know?

Sora: Well, besides you, there's Riku!

Kairi: What the f***? You and Riku!

Sora: No, no, no. Riku's not gay. He just helped me through it.

Kairi: Did I do this? Did I make you this way?

Sora: No, Kairi. This is no one's fault, but if it were someone's fault, it would be Mickey's!

Kairi: I'm sorry. I'll be going.

--She sobbs. And turns to the desk. Sora leans forward and wipes her eyes. He kisses her.

Sora: Just know that I do love you. You are beautiful in every way. And if you feel alone, don't worry, so do I. You'll find someone, I know you will. You could have had Riku, but I doubt that he'll forgive you after that kick in the, well, you know. And just between you and me, you cried way less than I did when I found out.

Kairi: (giggles) Thank you, Sora.

--She gathers her weapons and they both leave the weapons shed. She closes it up.

Riku: Oh, God, look who's back! It's the Bride of Chucky! You stay away from me and my goodie bag you whore! I hate you!

Kairi: You know it could be a lot worse. (aims gun)

Riku: Oh, holy crap! Woman, you're insane! First you kick me, now you want to shoot me, too! ABUSE! ABUSE! SEKUHARA!!! (trans.: sexual harassment)

Kairi: There's no law that can save you now. I shot that law!

Sora: No, Kairi! Don't!

--Sora helps Riku up as he did before. Kairi follows Riku's (well, you know) with her gun.

Riku: Stop aiming there, you twisted psycho!

Kairi: Fine! I'm outta here!

Sora: Wait Kairi! Let's all keep walking together until we run into that fork in the road.
