For the next couple of days Sora taught Riku how to swim and in time they went swimming. Soon they got bored of just swimming and started to just hang out by what they called, "The weird looking tree that hangs over the water". Today they sat upon it, looking out at sea and Riku was deeply in thought. What's out there? Is this island the only thing out there? Are there others? Where are they from? His thoughts raced through his mind. Sora on the other hand was lying on the tree, taking an afternoon nap.
"Watch out!" Somebody yelled as a blitz ball came racing at them. Fortunately for Riku it hit Sora instead of him, knocking the young boy off the tree.
"Sorry about that." A kid much older than them came to retrieve the ball.
"It's okay." Sora said, climbing back onto the tree. Two other kids ran up.
"Wakka, come on, let's play!" A girl with brown hair tugged at the older kid's shirt.
"Yeah!" A blonde kid said, hand on his hips.
"Alright..." Wakka looked at the two small boys on the tree. "Would you like to come play? You two look bored." He asked them.
"Sure!" They both said in unison.
"No they can't!" The girl said to Wakka.
"They're not cool enough!" The boy agreed.
"Selphie, Tidus, we're all stuck on this island together so why not enjoy each other's company ya?" Wakka bent down to them.
"Alright..." Selphie said.
"I guess..." Tidus mumbled looking at the ground. They five raced down to the beach to play with Wakka's Blitz ball until the sun went down.
