From every human being, there rises a light that reaches straight to heaven. And when two souls that are destined to be together find each other, their streams of light flow together, and a single brighter light goes forth from their united being.
The next day few days were routine. Namine tried to decode the meeting with Sora and Kairi but found no answer. Her thoughts still lingered over Roxas. She just could not get her thoughts straight.
One Saturday she was laying on the beach when Cybella came running towards her yelling something. Namine got up and began walking towards her.
" Namine, there's a girl here to see you. She said it's very important! She's waiting at your house."
Namine quickly made her back to her house. She soon found Kairi sitting on her steps.
" Namine!" Kairi pulled her into a tight embrace.
" What's going on Kairi? How did you get here?"
" It's Sora, he went to save Roxas."
Namine starred at Kairi. What did she mean by "save"?
"Where's Roxas at?" Namine said with panic.
" He's at Castle Oblivion. Sora went to save him."
Namine invited Kairi in and explained to her about Roxas disappearing and about when she saw Sora and Kairi. Kairi found it just as odd that Namine was brought to Kairi's room. She told Namine about what Sora had said about Roxas.
" He said he heard a plea from Roxas. I guess he could hear his voice in his head."
" Well Nobodies are special, they can talk to their other. Don't you remember when I talked to you and brought Sora's voice to you?"
Kairi nodded. " Sora told me to come here and stay with you, he said he would meet me here once he had saved Roxas."
" Did Donald and Goofy go with him?"
" Yes, King Mickey and Riku too."
Namine felt better after knowing all these people were going to help Roxas. She offered Kairi something to eat. Kairi gratefully took up her offer. Namine fetched her something to eat and continued to ask her questions.
" When did Roxas contact Sora."
Kairi swallowed her food then answered Namine's question. " The night he left."
Namine could only hope that Roxas was still alive. She thought all of this was over when Sora destroyed Xehanort. This confirmed her belief she couldn't have a normal life. She closed her eyes and laid her head on the table. She sat like that until Kairi gently patted her arm.
" I know how you feel Namine. I had to live without Sora for Two years."
Namine nodded then asked Kairi if she would like to see the island. Kairi agreed and followed Namine out the door. Namine took her through the town first, showing her some of the shops and restaurants. Kairi admired how much the town resembled Destiny Island. Next, Namine led Kairi along the beach; she shared her last memory here with Kairi.
" The last time I was here with Roxas. I don't really remember why, but we were celebrating us. He decide to make me jump with him off that cliff into the water." Namine point at the cliff sitting by the ocean. Namine smiled as she led Kairi up to the cliff.
" This is where I spend most of my time now. I like to sit up here and draw."
Kairi admired the view. She wished Sora could be here to see it.
Suddenly both girls felt a pain in their chest. They dropped to their knees and clutched their chests.
" What's happening?" Namine asked while trying to stand up.
" I don't know, it feels like my chest is on fire."
Both girls sat there on the ground waiting, hoping the pain would subside. Namine's vision began to blur with hot tears. She could hear light voices in her head.
" Roxas!"
"Sora, Riku!"
" Watch out for….."
"Foolish hero's, always trying to save the day."
"Xehanort it's over!"
" We'll see about that."
" I can hear them…in my head." Namine choked out.
" Who?"
" Roxas and Sora, I think they're fighting Xehanort."
Namine stood up slowly and began to help Kairi up when the pain finally stopped. Both girls felt a rush of relief.
" I wonder why that happened." Namine wondered aloud.
" I don't know, but I hope it doesn't happen again."
" Do you think it had to do with Sora and Roxas?"
" Maybe, it seems strange things like this always happen to us."
Namine agreed. She couldn't help but wonder what was going on with Roxas. She had never felt a pain like that. She closed her eyes for a moment and imagined Roxas' face. She was brought out of her moment by Kairi's voice.
" Should we go back to your house then?"
Namine nodded and led the way back to her house. She showed Kairi the guestroom and helped her make the bed.
" I hope they come home soon" She said with a wishful look.
" Me too, I hope they come in one piece."
Namine and Kairi stayed up late talking and catching up on things that had happened in the last year. Sora and Kairi were engaged and planned to marry after the graduated from school. Namine wondered what it was like to go to school. She could imagine hallways crammed with kids and teachers trying to calm the students. Kairi also informed Namine on a dream she had been having.
" It's always the same. I am standing in a doorway with my hand out stretched to Sora but he can never reach me. Heartless are always attacking him and he can get to me."
" Maybe it's because he was gone so long due to the heartless"
Kairi shrugged then let out a yawn. Namine said goodnight and headed for her own bed. She changed into her pajamas and crawled into bed. She closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.
"Namine, I'm almost home."
" Roxas please hurry, I need you."
" Soon, Namine, soon."
" Roxas, please, I need you here."
" Be strong, and remember, I'm always with you in your dreams."
