Chapter 2; "Crash Landing"
(Whoo flashback)
"He'd never forget abou-"
Selphie was interrupted by a loud crash that came from the shore outside.
XxxxXxxxX
'What was that…?
Kairi and Selphie glanced at each other questioningly. Then, as if reading each other's minds, ran together out through the dark tunnel and out onto the beach, blinded for a moment by the setting sun's reflection off the water's surface.
They stopped.
A large, oddly shaped object lay on the sand, partly dug into the ground. A … vehicle of some sort? It looked as though it was made of Lego blocks…
'A Gummi ship…' thought Kairi, her heart beating wildly, 'Could it really be…?'Kairi vaguely felt Selphie grab her arm in fear, having never seen the likes of a spaceship before.
"What is it, Kai?"
Kairi hardly heard her; she was listening so intently, trying to make out a sound…
Loud, angry voices reached their ears, coming from the brightly coloured ship. A door opened in the side, and a tall, silver-haired teenager stepped out, looking royally pissed off, dressed in a sleeveless blue shirt and long black pants, with a dark, black coat hanging loosely off his shoulders.
"You are never driving again, duck. Never." He spoke back into the cabin.
'Riku…?'
A small white duck followed, dressed in blue, an angry look on his face. "It wasn't my fault, you big palooka! If you hadn't grabbed the wheel…!"
'Donald…'
A dog-like thing followed, looking much the same as he always had, with a happy, carefree grin on his face, oblivious to the fighting around him.
'Goofy…'
Donald argued with Riku for a few minutes more, while Goofy watched them enthusiastically, a bit of peace among the fighting. No one noticed the two girls watching from less than ten metres up the beach. Finally, the last member of the crew stepped out.
Kairi's eyes widened.
It was a spiky-haired brunette, about as tall as Goofy now. He wore a mostly black outfit, with a black jacket, black fingerless gloves and black knee-length shorts. There were also hints of red and blue, and the same enormous yellow shoes. (hee hee) Flat yellow belts criss-crossed over the whole thing for no apparent reason.
Kairi stood, frozen with shock, staring at the adorable young man in front of her, completely unaware of Selphie trying to pull her towards him.
'…Sora…!'
Sora glanced at the two still arguing beside him, raised his eyebrows and grinned. He looked around at the palm trees, wooden planks and ladders that were crookedly built in various areas. He breathed in the salty aroma of the sea, something he hadn't been able to do for way too long. After a reminiscent moment he scanned the beach, searching for signs of life. He spotted the two girls further up the shore; a short, spunky brunette, pulling on the arm of a red-haired girl. The little brunette, well, he definitely knew who that was. His eyes moved to the redhead. He smiled.
'Kairi…'
"Sora!" Goofy walked over cheerfully. "So this is really where you lived? Gawrsh…"
Sora tore his eyes away from Kairi. He nodded to Goofy, then started walking up the slope.
XxxxXxxxX
Selphie pulled Kairi harder.
"C'mon! It's Sora! He's finally here! He came back, just like he promised! Oh my god, look he's seen you! He's coming! Come on Kairi!"
At that last word, Kairi forcefully jerked herself out of her reverie, and saw Sora walking towards her…he was here…he had kept his promise… Kairi's eyes filled with tears of happiness, and she felt herself break down completely. Her heart ached to see him right in front of her, and suddenly she'd pulled herself free from Selphie to run down the slope. She threw her arms around him, almost toppling him to the ground. Sora staggered under her weight, but managed to stay upright. Kairi buried her face in his chest, sobbing.
Her grip on him tightened, as though she knew she finally had him back, and never wanted to let go. Sora blinked in surprise, then slowly wrapped his arms around her and held her tightly.
"Kairi…"
Riku and Donald looked around at the sound of the sobbing, and forgot all about their little argument. Selphie, Donald and Goofy smiled like the cheerful matchmakers they were, and watched the cute couple.
Riku however, frowned at Sora, his heart brimming with jealously.
XxxxXxxxX
A/N: What a cliche. (sigh) Oh well. As Princess Kairi said, clicheness rocks. XD I think Riku really did love Kairi in the game, with the whole 'giving himself up to darkness to find her' thing. XD Also, I'm sorry if Riku is kinda OOC, but he DID change from being in Kingdom Hearts anyway and this is how I'm making him so deal with it. It's better than him being gay. Why does everyone make him gay!
