Chapter Eight
oOoOoOoOoOOoOoOoOoOo
It's been a week since Sora and Kairi shared that paopu fruit. They've been together ever since. They spent every single second within each other's view. They did this through rain or shine. Nothing could stop them.
There hasn't been much excitement during the week, other than eavesdropping. That was really fun. And there was the time that Goofy almost burned the house down…
It's 11:45 PM. I have no time to compose anything now. I better get going to sleep!
oOoOoOoOoOOoOoOoOoOo
Camille closed her journal and locked it. She leaned against the windowsill and stared at the night sky filled with stars. She unlocked the window. Camille felt the gentle wind against her face. She always liked the breeze of the cool night. She left her window open and slipped into bed.
About three and a half hours later, Camille woke up. It was 3:25. She tried to go back to sleep. "WHY CAN'T I GO TO SLEEP?" She rolled over to the other side and looked at the clock. "3:30?" She pouted. "This is one of the worst nights of my life."
Two hours later, Camille lay awake. She looked at the clock once more. " 5:16. It's taking forever to get back to sleep." She rolled side to side in her bed. Camille sighed, got out of bed, and grabbed her gray jacket. She opened a drawer in the bedside table. She grabbed her journal, pen, some colored pencils, a watch, and her retractable spear. Camille ripped out an empty page from her journal. She scribbled down, 'Gone out for a stroll, Camille.' She left it on her bed.
A short moment later, Camille was walking down the beach. She ended up sitting down at the edge of the dock. Her journal was laid open on her lap with her pen in the crease. Camille set her colored pencils and spear to the side. "Now, what to write." Waves of creativity crashed inside her head.
oOoOoOoOoOOoOoOoOoOo
The silent waves,
Of the night,
Are like no other.
The night craves,
The white light,
As they light up one after another.
The night holds a riddle,
An extraordinary one,
That some know about.
In the middle,
You can find the one,
That bursts out.
oOoOoOoOoOOoOoOoOoOo
She was satisfied. "At least I got something down." Camille glanced at her watch. "5:39, 5:40." It took her seven minutes to compose the poem. She stared at the ocean. It reflected the pink and orange sunrise. It was a beautiful sight. Camille grabbed her colored pencils and made a quick scene of the sunrise in her journal.
She looked down and saw a shadow hover over her. Camille grabbed her spear. She extended it to it's full length, stood up, turned around, and pointed the end of the spear at the person's face. "Show yourself." Her voice was stern and strict.
The person chuckled and raised his arms up. "Don't worry. I bring no harm." It was a guy. He was wearing a hood.
Camille pushed the spear closer to the person's face. "I said, show yourself!"
He obeyed and took down his hood. 'Silver hair, hooded cloak…' "You must be Riku!" Camille exclaimed.
"It's amazing how much someone can tell who someone is from his or her features, especially if they never met." Riku stared down at the spearhead. "Umm…would you mind?"
"Oh sorry." Camille flushed for forgetting about her weapon was in his face.
"Shouldn't you be asleep?"
"Well, shouldn't you be telling me why you're here?"
'Clever, but not as clever as me.' "I asked you first, so answer me first."
'Oh crap.' "W-well, I asked you second!" Camille crossed her arms across her chest.
'It's fun meddling with her.' "So?" Riku chuckled.
"So you answer me first! Besides, you aren't here just to ask me why I'm awake and not asleep!" 'Nice comeback.'
'Great. Now what?' Riku paused for a few seconds. "How do you know?"
"Because it wouldn't make any sense for a guy like you to just drop by and ask me a question like that. Then leave? I don't think so! IT'S SO LOGICAL!" By that time, Riku was outdone.
"Fine." A few minutes passed.
"Aren't you going to answer me?"
"Oh yeah, about that." Riku turned around so that his back was facing Camille. "It really doesn't involve you."
"Then why did you even walk towards me?"
Riku just ignored her and walked away.
"I'm asking you a question! Please answer it? I just want to know."
"No."
"Why not?"
"Because. I don't." He continued to walk away.
Camille had enough. "Remember that this is from Camille." Without thinking, she threw her journal at Riku's head.
"OW!" The journal plopped down beside him. He turned around. Riku didn't see any sign of her; he just heard a splash.
…………………………………………………
The sun was up like almost every morning. David decided to go on an early walk. He wanted to go to the Cove so he headed towards the dock. When he got onto the dock, he saw a body lying near the edge, face down. Being a helpful person, he rushed over. David rolled the person over. "Camille?" 'Why is she here? All wet and here this early? Knowing her from the past, she would never do anything like this. Unless…' "Camille! Wake up!" David shook her furiously.
Camille groaned. "Where am I?" She looked straight up. "David?"
"Are you okay?"
Camille sat up. "Yeah, I'm fine."
"I'm so happy you're okay." David hugged Camille. "Oh, sorry." He blushed a bit.
"That's okay."
"What happened?"
"Well, I couldn't go to sleep. So I went outside with my journal, watch, pen, colored pencils, and my spear."
"You have a spear?"
"Well, yeah. I'll tell you about that later. Anyway, a guy named Riku -"
"RIKU? I know that guy! Sort of." David looked at Camille's expression. "Eh he, I'll stop interrupting."
"Riku seemed to hover over me. I didn't know that was him. I pointed my spear at him. Then we got into this 'contest' to make the other person answer first because we asked each other a question. I won (of course) and he wouldn't answer me. Then he ignored my other question and me. Riku was very rude at that moment and I got fed up with him. So I threw my journal at his head. I didn't feel like just standing there, so I jumped into the water. I stayed there until he was gone. Then I hopped back on the dock. I was going to head home, but I was too tired. So I guess I just fell asleep on the dock!"
David just sat there, starting at Camille. He only got some words out of Camille's explanation because A) she said it too fast and B) he was starting at the light Camille gave off.
"ACHOO! I think I'm sick."
'She sure sounds sick.' "I think you should be heading home and getting some rest."
"You're probably right." She sneezed again and the two of them headed towards Sora's house.
…………………………………………………
"DING DONG!" Sora got out of bed and yawned. "Who could that be?" He headed downstairs. He opened the door in his PJ's. "David? Camille? What happened?"
"I found her on the dock. It seemed that she snuck out for a stroll in the middle of the night." David was then carrying her for she was fast asleep. Sora and David carried her to her room. As they laid her on her bed, she woke up.
"ACHOO! Oi…I don't feel so good."
"And I don't think it's a good idea for her to go to sleep in wet clothes. I'll go call Kairi and see if she can help out."
"Okay. I'll just stay here."
………………………………………………………
Five minutes later, Kairi arrived. She fixed Camille up so that she was ready for the day. Camille was fast asleep after Kairi left with Sora. (How surprising!) David had to go to a blitzball match with Wakka, Tidus, and Selphie. Donald and Goofy were roaming the island. Camille was left alone.
After Camille ate lunch and fixed herself up, she crawled back into bed after she opened her window. She couldn't fall asleep so she decided to write in her journal. Camille opened the drawer. It wasn't there. "How could I FORGET? I threw it at Riku and never returned to pick it up." A picture of the dock this morning flashed through her mind. "None of my stuff was left on the dock…RIKU MUST HAVE TAKEN THEM!"
"Looking for this?" Riku was at Camille's window, wearing the same thing he did on their first encounter. He held her journal and other contents.
"Yes. May I please have them back?"
"Sure, catch." Riku threw them gently at Camille.
"Thank you." She looked at Riku and watched him drop down.
He popped up again, only showing his head. "Oh and I left a note in your journal." Riku lifted up his blindfold and winked at her. Before Camille could say anything, he was long gone.
Without a second thought, Camille opened her journal. After her last entry, there was writing that wasn't hers.
oOoOoOoOoOOoOoOoOoOo
I like your stuff, especially that one poem about the night.
Do me a favor and give this envelope to Sora.
Riku
oOoOoOoOoOOoOoOoOoOo
Camille grabbed the envelope and walked over to Sora's room. She laid it on his bed. She returned to her room swiftly. She retrieved her journal and pen. Camille flipped to the next empty page and started writing. Fifteen minutes later, she closed her journal. She stuffed her belongings in the drawer and plopped back into bed. Soon Camille fell asleep.
…………………………………………………
"Goodnight."
"Goodnight." Sora watched Kairi shut her front door. Another day has passed. He walked towards his house thinking of the glorious hours of that day. Sora looked at the ocean. 'The ocean looks normal, except for the dark spots. Wait. Dark spots?' As soon as Sora realized what was happening, Heartless poured out of the water. "Damn it!" he exclaimed. He left his keyblade at the house. He looked around and found a wooden sword. "Might as well use it for now." Sora whacked the Heartless in his path to his house. The enemy surrounded him. "Oh great. This just made it a lot easier!" Sora charged and defeated a section. Even though the wood weapon wasn't powerful, his moves and strength made it more effective.
The Heartless kept coming (like always) and soon surrounded Sora so that he could do nothing. One was about to attack Sora's chest when the Heartless around him were wiped away.
"I thought you might need some help." Camille tossed over Sora's keyblade and charms.
"Thanks." He switched the Kingdom Key chain for the Lionheart chain. The wind started howling furiously. "Aren't you sick?"
"What? I can't hear you!"
"AREN'T YOU SICK?"
"Yeah, but for some reason this is making me feel a whole lot better!" Yelling was the only way to communicate.
"I'm going over to Kairi's house and make sure she's okay!"
"Check on Tidus and David too! He lives right next door!" Sora nodded. "I'm going to Wakka and Selphie! Then I'll go help Donald and Goofy!"
They broke away from each other.
……………………………………………………
Camille busted into Wakka's house. "Wakka! Wakka!" There was no reply. "WAKK – Tidus?"
Tidus came down the stairs. "Hey Camille. What's with all the yelling?"
"Tidus! The Heartless! They're invading! You have to retreat!"
"Heartless? Who are they?" Wakka came into the room.
"You have to believe me! Just find a way out of here!"
Tidus and Wakka looked at each other. "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
"Nice one Camille, but you can't fool us!"
CRASH! The window was broken. Heartless poured inside the house. Camille casted Areoga on them and yelled, "I'm fine! Just get yourselves out!" The two boys obeyed and fled. As soon as Camille was done with the group of Heartless, she did the same to Selphie.
Camille went into the main island and ran to the train station. She helped passengers get on the train and onto safety. While she was there, she said goodbye to her new friends and one old one. The train left, and Camille caught up with her partners in crime.
"Everyone's gone, except for us."
"What will we do now?"
"We might as well try to find a keyhole."
"So it's settled. We find the keyhole."
"I know the first place we should look! The Secret Place!"
Camille, Donald, and Goofy followed Sora into the Secret Place.
"Here it is!"
The four of them looked at the drawings on the wall.
"THERE!" Goofy pointed at the keyhole. It was on the drawing of Sora and Kairi sharing a paopu fruit. Sora aimed the Lionheart at the keyhole and sealed Destiny Islands.
"This world is safe," Sora sighed.
"Yeah, but it's practically abandoned. How are we supposed to move on?"
"A-hyuck! Don't ask me!"
"Don't ask me either!" Donald wailed.
The quad sat in silence.
"What about a gummi ship?" Goofy suggested.
"But where would we find one?" Camille asked.
"Well, the last time I was here, besides now, there was a gummi garage…"
"Then let's go check it out!" Camille said perkishly. (I don't think perkisly is a word, but you know what I mean.)
…………………………………………………………
"It's good enough to use!" Donald exclaimed. He was never happier to see a gummi ship.
"Alright, let's hop in!" Donald went in first, then Goofy, then Camille, and Sora came in last.
"Who's in control?"
"I AM!" Donald and Sora said at the same time. They glared at each other.
"I AM! I've been with gummi ships longer than you have!" Donald said.
"I'm a better driver!"
"What do you mean?"
"That I can drive better than you!"
"No you CAN'T!"
"Yes I CAN!"
"YOU MADE US CRASH OVER TEN TIMES IN THE LAST ADVENTURE!"
"THAT WAS NINE!"
"THAT'S STILL A LOT!"
"WHAT! WELL, YOU MUST HAVE CRASHED BEFORE!"
Sora and Donald continued to debate. Goofy just sat and watched the 'entertainment.' Camille decided to do something. She sat in the driver's seat and looked at the controls. She's been in a gummi ship before, but she was a passenger. "This can't be that hard." Camille observed the instruments. "Okay, here we go!" She turned the key, gripped the joysticks (yay for joysticks!), and pushed on the gas pedal. They were suspended into space.
"I'm still a better driver."
"No you're not! Do you remember what happened when we disembarked in the Deep Jungle? To sprang us onto the planet!"
Camille was getting highly annoyed. "Hold on Goofy!" She slammed her foot on the brakes. Sora and Donald flew across the ship and smashed into the wall.
"WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT FOR?" The arguing pals demanded an answer.
"You were annoying me! And I think Goofy too." She looked at Goofy who was holding onto a chair.
"Eh he…Well, we're we headed?"
………………………………………………………………
The Twilight Train was packed with people. It was late at night; most of the people were asleep.
PIT-PAT-PIT-PAT. Kairi heard something. 'Must be some debris in space hitting the train.' PIT-PAT-PIT-PAT. She looked over at her friends. David was the only one awake. He stared down at the floor. Kairi looked out the window. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" The window was broken into by Dusks. They invaded the train. People were taken by them.
Kairi crawled under the chair. It was too late. She was grabbed by a Dusk and was hurled out the window.
David grabbed her arm. 'I can't break the promise I made to Sora.'
………………………………………………………………
After Sora warned David, he asked, "David?"
"Yeah?"
Sora sighed. "I want Kairi to be and stay safe." He looked straight at David's face. "Can you take care of her?"
"Wha?"
"I'm going on a journey, and I can't take Kairi with me. It's…too dangerous! You understand?" David nodded. "I need you to keep her safe."
"I'll keep her safe no matter what."
"Promise?"
"Promise."
……………………………………………………
'It's too early to break it now.' "LET GO OF HER!" Instead, the Dusk yanked them out of the train. Kairi and David were attacked by its sharp limbs and knocked unconscious.

Okay. Done with that chapter. I practically forced myself to write when my internet blew out on my yesterday night.
