Chapter 11: Just like checkers!
After getting repeatedly pummeled by angry final fantasy characters, Kairi insisted that Sora stay in bed for a few days and heal. His injuries consisted of a sprained ankle, neck, and wrist, two broken fingers, a black eye, and plenty of cuts and bruises. In the end, he actually never gave everyone his or her things back.
"But, I want to go outsiiiide!" Sora whined.
"I told you! You can't. Unless you want to make those injuries worse." Kairi walked over to the bed carrying a bowl of hot soup.
"Eat this." She said and set it down on the nightstand.
Sora frowned and crossed his arms. "Noo! I want pizza!" he continued to carry on in a very childish tone.
"I'll watch him."
Sora looked up to see Riku standing in the doorway holding a very small table and two tiny pots.
"Thanks," Kairi sighed gratefully and exited the room.
"Sora, did you ever hear of the game called Go?" Riku asked and set down the tiny wooden table.
"Go? Five? I've heard of fifty-two pickup, but not Go," Sora replied and scratched his head.
A/N: 'go' means five in Nihongo.
A/A/N: Nihongo means Japanese in Japanese.
"Ugh. No! I'm not referring to the number 5, it's a traditional Japanese game played with stones." Riku lifted the lids off of the tiny pots. One was filled with white stones, the other with black.
"Oh. Are you gonna teach me how to play?" Sora asked eagerly and clapped his hands.
"Sure. Okay. Since you're the less experienced player, you start with black stones." Riku explained and handed him the container.
"Uh, okay." He said and picked up one of the shiny stones. "Ooh. Pretty."
"Okay. Now, to start off, you can only place a stone on the spot where two lines intersect," Riku explained. "The crux of the game is to capture as many spaces possible. The spaces that belongs to you is your territory. Your opponent cannot place any of his stones in your territory. While building up your territory, you also want to prevent your opponent by capturing your opponents stones." Riku continued to tell about dead stones, captured stones, eyes, and so on. After about an hour or so of explaining, and some teaching games, Sora was convinced he was ready to play against Riku.
"Okay, if you're sure," Riku said and placed Sora's handicap stones on the board.
In just ten minutes, Sora had captured almost all of Riku's stones. Riku was utterly amazed, and Sora was just being his clueless stupid self. He picked one of his stones and moved across the board, jumping some of Riku's white stones. He slammed it down at the side near Riku.
"King me!" he shouted in triumph.
Riku sighed, stood up and walked over to the wall next to the door, and started to slam his head repetitively into the wall.
"Hey, are you okay?" Kairi was once again reading the newspaper when Riku stumbled down the stairs. "I heard a lot of banging."
"How can you stand that kid!" He exclaimed and pointed up the stairs. "He's a frickin retard! How could you date him, let alone kiss him, without strangling him!"
"This would be the perfect time to whisper 'PMS', but you're a boy, and it would be kinda wrong." Kairi commented.
"Riku! Are we going to finish our game?" Sora asked as he came down the stairs.
"No! Because you're a fricken jack-ass retard!" Riku exploded and grabbed the front of Sora's shirt, lifting him off the ground.
"Kairi! A little help!" Sora gasped.
"HIIIYAAAH!" Kairi screamed and whacked him over the head with a frying pan.
"Was that necessary?" Sora asked and brushed himself off. "You almost hit me."
Riku was now lying unconscious on the floor, and Kairi had gone back to reading the newspaper. Suddenly she started to jump up and down and shriek.
"Omigod omigod omigod! Hikaru Shindo is going to be competing in a go tournament right here! In Traverse Town!"
"So? I've never even heard of him," Sora was starting to get a little jealous.
"Ugh, Kairi, stop shrieking," Riku sat up and rubbed his sore head. "God. I feel like I got hit with a frying pan."
Sora and Kairi just looked at each other, trying to suppress their laughter.
"He's that stupid Go dude who talks to himself, right?" Sora asked and scratched his head.
"He does not talk to himself! I think…well, anyway, there's going to be a go tournament in Traverse Town!" She explained.
"I wanna enter!" Sora exclaimed proudly. "And I will!"
"Oh no you won't!" Riku shook his head. "You still think the game is the same thing as checkers!"
"I thought they were the same?" Kairi questioned.
Riku's face changed to a blank expression. Then he grabbed the frying pan and whacked himself on the head.
