Chapter II Everyone needs a little help sometimes
((Aori's P.O.V.))
We were rushing through a crowd, gathered for who knows what. Unfortunately, my curiosity got the best of me, and Larxene had to follow me into the crowd so I wouldn't get in trouble.
"Go away, witch!"
"Burn her at the stake!"
"She will curse us all!" A young blonde girl with blue eyes was tied to a pole. She seemed scared and bruised.
"You all leave her alone!" It grew silent.
"You dare defy the mayor's wishes?" The mayor walked in at that time.
"I did not ask for this innocent girl to be held hostage," The mayor said in a very stately matter. He untied the girl, and she ran over to us.
"Thanks. My name is Namine," the girl said, her voice small and timid. The mayor sent everyone off. Unfortunately, I met up with the boys I had avoided at Disney Castle.
((Riku's P.O.V.))
"Aha! We found-" At that moment the princess slugged Sora in the gut, and he fell to the ground.
"Ow." Sora got up, still in pain, I believe.
"We're here to-" I tried to speak, but she interrupted.
"I know what you're here for. You wanna take me back to Hollow Bastion. But I'm not leaving til I find my dad and PROVE that he's good." I shook my head, and smiled. Knew it.
"Okay then, we'll help," Sora said.
"Wha-ARE YOU CRAZY SORA?" Donald was mad as usual, and he didn't like getting off schedule.
"No, I seriously doubt he is. And I'll help, too. You don't have to help if you don't want, Donald."
"Ahuyck, I'll help, too. Ansem can't be all bad, can he?" Namine walked up to the girl.
"You helped me, so I'll help you. Count me in." Namine had smile on her face, and had her staff in her hand.
"Oh might as well…" Donald had lost. I guess we'll be finding out the truth.
((Aori's P.O.V.))
I was in shock. No one had ever offered help before, at least to me.
"I hope you don't mind, but…." I showed them Shad the Shadow, Kora the White Mushroom, Mr. Big the Large body, and Riley the Wyvern.
"Heartless!" The spiky haired boy attacked, but they ran behind me.
"Wha-They didn't attack?" The silver haired boy was surprised.
"Of course not. They don't fight that well yet. Well, at least not against the Keyblade master." I smiled. Kora had gained enough courage to go up and introduce herself.
"Hi, my name is Kora. Who are you?"
"Sora," said the spiky haired boy.
"Riku," the silver haired boy replied.
"Donald," the duck said grudgingly.
"Goofy," the dog person said goofily.
"Well, let's get going before someone eggs-" Larxene got hit with an egg, and yolk was on her face.
((Riku's P.O.V.))
We walked in the gummi ship. Someone had messed with Larxene's, so everyone went into Donald and Goofy's. I had thought Aori might want to drive, but she sat near a window in the back and looked out at the stars. I sat next to her, thinking something might be wrong.
"You okay?"
"I'm fine, it's just I'm worried he might be dead…"
"Ansem? How do you know? Lots of people, well at least most people I know, have come back to life. Besides, even if he were he wouldn't want you to worry about him for the rest of your life. Your dad would want you to live life, okay?"
"Mmmm…okay…" With that, I walked off. Somehow, I didn't want to leave. I shrugged the feeling off and went to the front with Sora, Donald, and Goofy.
