Author's Note: I don't have anything against any character, and Riku's one of my favorite characters (even if I got mad at him somewhere halfway through the game), so sorry if the abusing offends you.

Chapter 4:

"Shuyin, what if you do get caught?" Sora asked. The two were back at their dormitories, watching the football game. Shuyin on the other hand went to steal the janitor's clothes and put them on. Then he took the lawnmower and walked out of the door.

"Don't worry," Shuyin said, "I know what I'm doing." He dragged the lawnmower like a plow to the elevator and went down to first floor. Sora shook his head. He was alone in the dormitory again. The other two mates in the room never seemed to be in the dormitory.

A knock was at the door. Sora turned the TV off and got up from bed to open the door. No one was there. He looked down, and found a blue book was lying on the ground.

"My diary?" Sora asked himself. Indeed it was his diary, but how did it walk all the way back to him and knock the door? Guess someone gave it back to me… He hoped no one read it.

But isn't that what you wanted? His conscious said. You said you wanted someone to know your past.

Well, I take that back. He closed the door and went to his desk to write another entry in it.

Shuyin tipped his cap so his face wouldn't show. He was grinning madly, and he started the mown up next to the flagpole. Riku is sure to walk into this field in a few minutes.

The medicine Shuyin put in made Riku walk around school, saying hello to everyone. It was temperate, but it didn't wear off until two days or if the person is in shock. Shuyin hid the hook that usually hung the school flag down and hid it behind the lawnmower. A few minutes later, Riku did walk over to the front of the school. Shuyin tried his best not to snigger.

"Hi," Riku said dumbly. "How's your day?"

Shuyin coughed and tried a different voice. "It's okay," he said lightly.

"That's nice to know. Do want to know a fact about me," Riku said.

"Sure," Shuyin answered absentmindedly.

"I'm afraid of heights. Isn't that wonderful?" Riku asked and continued walking to greet the other students. A few saw the scene and whispered quietly to each other, wondering why Riku was so nice.

Shuyin quickly took the hook of the rope that connected to the flagpole and hooked it on Riku shirt. When he walked away a yard or two, Shuyin let go of the rope and quickly closed the lawnmower. Shuyin hid behind the school walls and watched the panorama.

Riku got pulled up to the top of the flagpole, and he hung there helplessly. Everyone turned around and looked at Riku. Some couldn't help but laugh.

"Hey, you're laughing at the president of tenth grade, you know!" Riku sneered angrily. "This is not funny! When I get my hands on who did this, they'll pay!"

Shuyin endured to laugh and continued to mow.

Namine saw some commotion outside and decided to take a look. There were lots of people crowding around the flagpole for some reason. She pushed through the crowd and into the front. She found Riku hanging there, swearing over and over again.

"Out of the way, out of the way, you people get out!" an angry voice said. Everyone became quiet. Mr. Prince, the assistant principal came over. He gazed up to Riku.

"Just what happened to you, Riku?" he asked.

"I don't know! I don't even know why I'm here in the first place!" Riku yelled. Mr. Prince went over to the flagpole and tried to pull Riku back down, but someone had to tie a knot at the end, making it virtually impossible to get him back down, unless Riku himself wanted to take his shirt off and risk breaking his neck off of a twenty feet jump.

Namine looked at the knot, and she instantly knew who did it. Shuyin made the Impossibilitive knot, some knot that Shuyin's family had been carrying for years. And no one besides his family and friends knew how to untie it.

"How do you get this thing untied?" Mr. Prince said. Namine looked up to Riku and felt a little pain and guilt in her heart. What are you thinking Namine? He's your enemy, don't feel that way… Namine thought to herself, but she couldn't hold back and stepped up to untie the knot for Riku. He came down and rubbed his arms.

"Did you do this?" Riku pointed at Namine. She gasped.

"I don't do pranks!" Namine protested. "I would never even think about it!" He looked over to the rest of the group who pointed at everyone else.

"Stop, stop! You guys go to your next class, and I'll investigate who has done this," Mr. Prince said and shooed everyone away. "And you Riku, say thank you to Namine. If it weren't for her, you would still be up there, and we would had to cut the rope and buy a new one."

"Thanks," Riku said sarcastically to Namine and walked away. Namine put her hands on her hips and glared.

"Wake up Sora, wake up! Wake up now or you'll be dead! Kairi's about to kiss you!" Shuyin yelled in Sora's ear. Sora sat straight up and hit his head on the bottom of the top bed.

"Ouch…" Sora mumbled as he rubbed his head. "What was that for?"

"Too wake you up. Mr. Prince wants us to meet in the auditorium."

Sora yawned. "No thanks, I think I'll go back to bed…" Shuyin went over to get a basket of cold water and poured it over Sora.

"Okay, okay, I'm up!" Sora quickly got out of his bed. "Now what? You want me to sleep on the floor this evening?" He got out of the bed and changed into some warmer clothes.

They went to auditorium, with Sora still shivering and his hair moist. The green leaves turned into yellowish reddish leaves that fell to the ground. Sora heard the crunching beneath the feet.

Selphie and Cloud were seemed to be discussing something, and the rest were saying something about Riku.

"Shuyin, did you do what happened yesterday?" Lenne asked. Shuyin didn't answer. "You could have gotten in trouble! You could've got expelled! You want to leave me behind?"

"No, no, it's not like that!" Shuyin said quickly. Sora moved away. He didn't want to get into the discussion. He took an empty seat and started chattering with the rest of the group, excluding Selphie and Cloud.

"You're losing," Cloud whispered. "I told you Namine would tell her feeling more."

"But she didn't admit it yet," Selphie said. "And I can tell: Kairi feels for Sora."

"That does it, do you want it to be 700 dollars?" Cloud asked.

"Deal!" Selphie whispered.

"Everyone!" Mr. Prince yelled in the speaker. Everyone became quiet. Nobody wanted to mess with him. "The school community has decided that we can give students an extra period if they wanted to do an extra subject! Now if…"

"I don't want an extra period!" Tidus whispered. "I have enough to die!" Yuna giggled.

Selphie smirked. "Aww, Tidus trying to impress Yuna. How cute."

"Hey!"

For the half hour, Mr. Prince was talking about the incident yesterday at the front field. Nobody was paying attention, and when he finished. Selphie quickly took Sora out.

"What? What's so important?" Sora asked.

"You will sign up for the after periods, and you will take drama," Selphie demanded. "If you don't, I'll tell the whole school about you having secret affairs with Kairi."

"What? I don't have any affairs with her," Sora answered disbelievingly.

"And I'll tell about your pet Mr. Bear that you still sleep with, and I'll steal all your money. And I'll paint your room permanent pink. You know I have permanent paint that's not coverable."

"Are you blackmailing me?" Sora demanded back.

"Yeah. And I'll seriously do all that unless you take drama. Simple, isn't it?" Selphie gave a sheet of paper to Sora. "I'll let you think about it." She skipped away in joy.

"But I don't have secret affairs with Kairi!" Sora said. Selphie was already gone.

"Hey, Sora, do you know where Selphie went off to?" Cloud asked. Everyone else was exiting the auditorium.

"No. And I don't think I want to know," Sora said .

"Olette's moved out. Now we have one person less in the outcast," Roxas said. "Well, we don't need so many people."

"That's mean," Namine said disapprovingly. "She had to move back to her family."

"Yeah, well, who cares. I still think that Riku on the top of the flagpole was hilarious," Tidus laughed. They all went to their first period.

"Hello class," Mr. Pan welcomed boringly.

"Hello," the class replied dully.

"Why do we have to have History?" Tidus yelled. Sora and Namine gave each other glances.

"Why do you dare asking me that question?" Mr. Pan's voice rose.

"History's boring. We're just learning about stupid evil cultures that lived a thousand years before. What's the point?" Tidus asked.

"The point is that you learn yourself!" Mr. Pan yelled. Everyone winced. Sora had asked the same question in the first day of school, and pretty much got in trouble.

"And what if you don't want to learn about yourself?" Tidus continued to ask. Mr. Pan boiled.

"Detention at lunch, Tidus, 12:00 sharp."

"But P.E. wouldn't be over –"

"I'm sure Cid will let you off early," Mr. Pan said. Tidus groaned. Nobody dared to speak after that. When the bell rung, Sora walked with Namine as usual to Reading.

"I think I really should switch to Spanish or French," Sora sighed. "Reading literally sucks."

"You're the one who wanted to take Reading. I highly doubt the principal will let you switch," Namine told him. Sora stopped.

"That reminds me… have you ever seen the principal before?" Sora asked. Namine shook her head. The two walked to Mrs. White's classroom, and they sat there for a full hour enduring the pain.

"Anyone finished with their project?" Mrs. White asked. Sora doodled on his paper of himself stabbing Riku in the head.

"Nobody?" Mrs. White said. "How sad. Seifer, detention! Your back will break one day if you keep sitting like that." She stopped for a moment. "Quiz on your reading question!"

"But you can't do that!" Tidus yelled.

"Raise your hand before you speak, Tidus! Detention, 6:00. I'll see what I can do with you," Mrs. White sneered.

"What?" Tidus complained.

"Do you want a full week of detention?" Mrs. White asked.

"No."

"Good. I'll continue with my lesson."

"That was hell," Tidus said angrily. "Two detentions, and now I'm probably get another one today," he said as he slammed his lunch onto the table. Everyone in the table gazed at Tidus, who was gobbling down his spaghetti.

"Calm down," Yuna said. "Sora's got way more detentions than you in your life."

"Is that supposed to make me feel better?" Tidus asked.

"No. It's a complement from your girlfriend," Leon said as he shuffled his deck of cards. He was playing BS with Yuffie, Cloud, and Roxas. Aerith and Selphie watched the game.

"So, Sora, what's your answer?" Selphie asked Sora.

"Fine, I'll do drama," Sora sighed.

"Yes! My plan's working!" Selphie said. "I'm going to get that 700 dollars, just wait till you see! Now I have to go to Riku's table. Bye!"

"What's up with her and the Ultimate Retards?" Tidus asked. Sora shrugged.

"It just better not be something with Riku," answered Sora.

"I heard it's got something to do with Kairi. Something about telling her to enter drama," Yuffie said airily.

"What?" Sora said. He got up from his seat and walked to Selphie, then pulled her away.

"Why did you make Kairi go to drama too?" Sora hissed.

"None of your business," Selphie said. "Do you want to change your mind?"

"No thanks," Sora said quickly. "I'm okay."

"Oh, it's the porcupine," Seifer sneered. "What have you come here for? Beat Riku up again?"

"I wasn't talking to you," Sora snapped.

"Oh, you want a fight?" Seifer sniggered. "Maybe Axel would like to do that."

"I'll be happy to kick his ass," Sora said treacherously. The two glared forever until Mar. Prince came.

"Sora, do you want more detention?" he asked. "Go back to your lunch." Sora gave Seifer one last glare before marching back to his table.

"I assume the people here wanted to be in drama?" Mr. Laing asked. Everyone nodded. Sora rested himself on the wall.

Mr. Laing was almost bald, with a little bit of hair and there. He wore glasses, and he looked pretty old.

"Please have a seat. These will not be your assigned seats since we'll be moving around a lot. I need to do roll check first." Sora set his binder down onto the desk that was right at the back. He waited for Mr. Laing to finish his roll check and instructions.

"Your first assignment will be to create a romance story and act it out on the day before Halloween. I cannot help with your story you guys will create, and parents can't either. But I will randomly pick the characters to act, or if you're the stage designer, etc. Adults will be happy to help you gather supplies," Mr. Laing said. "You may begin creating your story."

Sora thought why he happened to be in that room in the first place.

"We should do one of those prince and princess stories where they kiss at the end," a girl said.

"Oh, hi Sora!" Sora turned around. Yuna waved.

"Hi Yuna," Sora said dully.

"No! That sounds to original," another boy interjected.

"Who wants a prince and princess story?" The same girl asked. Almost everyone raised their hands.

"Majority rules. We make a prince and princess story," he girl said.

"Why did you come to drama?" Sora asked Yuna.

"Oh, I wanted to be the narrator or stage designer really much. I get really bored. So I thought it would be a little fun to try out drama," said Yuna. "Why are you here? Didn't you know that Kairi loves to act?"

"She's here? In this room?" Sora asked.

"Yeah. Oh shoot, Mr. Laing's coming. We should start working now," said Yuna. She took out a journal and pencil and started scribbling.

The girl who suggested the story came over. "You two are making the story. Make sure to have the kiss at the end. Got that? That's your job."

Sora gaped. "Why do we get the hard things? I –" Yuna elbowed Sora.

"Mr. Laing," Yuna whispered.

Sora coughed a little. "So, I guess the narrator should start. Uh…" The two spoke and wrote only about the subject, though they did speak something about Riku.

"Once upon a time, there was…" Sora said and Yuna scribbled it down, "a prince and he… what did he do?"

"He was lonely," answered Yuna. She scribbled it down. Before they knew, the bell rang.

The next day was basically the same thing. The girl demanded to have the story finished with the characters listed before drama. Sora and Yuna blocked off everyone's voice, fearing that if they didn't finish the script, the girl would kill them.

"So they kissed and lived happily ever. The end," Sora told Yuna.

Yuna shook her right hand. "I think I need hand surgery," she said.

"Ahem," Mrs. Mylon coughed. The two looked up.

"Sora, what's the answer?"

"Uhh… well…" Sora thought of something. They were learning something about gravity, weren't they? The question was something about periodic tables…the radioactive elements? Sora couldn't remember.

"Well?" Mrs. Mylon waited patiently.

"Elements 43, 61… and 84 to 112?" Sora guessed.

"Correct!" Mrs. Mylon bellowed. Everyone bounced up from their seat. "Yuna, since you're so smart, what's the atomic mass for element 79?"

"196.97."

"Excellent, you two do know your science!" Mr. Mylon yelled happily. Everyone plugged their ears. "Now peoples, since there are people who know the periodic tables, we are going to take the quiz." Everyone groaned.

"Why did you do that, Sora?" Kairi asked.

"How was I supposed to know?" Sora shushed back. Yuna reached across from her table and took the journal still lying on Sora's table.

When school was over, Yuna and Sora headed off to drama, trying to make the character list. They entered the classroom and gave the story to the girl, who went up to the teacher and pleaded that she was the princess. Mr. Laing put everyone's names in the basket, and one by one, he drew people out and read down the character list. The girl instead got chosen to be the narrator, and Yuna was a stage designer. When the prince came up, Sora hoped it wouldn't be him.

"And the prince is…" Mr. Laing said as he reached into the basket, "Sora Hikari." He ignored Sora's reactions and continued to draw.

"And the princess is Kairi Yoni.," Mr. Laing said.

"But – what?" Sora and Kairi said. They looked at each other.

"You heard me," Mr. Laing said. "Sora and Yuna will have the copies of the storyline, and whatever you guys have, you have. No switching parts."

"We don't want to kiss each other! Do you know how much that will ruin our lives?" Sora and Kairi said.

"No, your part is your part. And Sora, I don't expect you to whine when you're the one who wrote the story."

"But –"

"No buts."
