Chapter 2: Destiny Islands

"Come on, Nayuz! You can't be that easy to defeat!" yelled Wakka while the blonde girl set her hands on her knees and panted for a while. "I heard you were harder to defeat than that!"

Nayuz stood up straight and stared at Wakka with her intense aquamarine eyes. "You're right, I'm not!" As Wakka threw his blitzball at her, she readied herself, and kicked it at him when it reached her. "Oof," he grunted when it hit him in the stomach.

"I guess I'm not as easy as you thought, hm, Wakka?" she smiled.

A brown-haired girl ran towards them, waving her arm. "You started without me? I can't believe you guys!" she yelled.

"Oh, hello, Kiea," said Nayuz through narrowed eyes.

"Hi, Kiea!" yelled Selphie, running up to her from where she was watching the fight. "Why don't you cut your hair? It must be so hot here at the Islands."

"I don't know why... It reminds me of home, I guess."

"Your home? I haven't heard that one before. Tell us about it," said Nayuz, suddenly interested.

"Well, it's kinda vague... but I remember it was much colder than here. There were also many... large lizards... I can't believe I wasn't scared, but it actually filled me with a joy when I saw them." Kiea sighed happily. "It must've been a weird dream, though. As far as I can remember, besides that, I've lived here. But I still call that place home."

"What a story..." sighed Selphie. "Hey, you wanna go explore the north shore? No one's been there for weeks, so maybe a few monsters have moved in!" Selphie ran off towards the cave that lead to the north shore, leaving Kiea no choice but to follow. Nayuz stared back at them.

"Giant... Lizards..." she murmured.

-

"Hey, Kiea!" yelled Nayuz, acting much nicer than before. "You wanna fight?"

"Not really..."

"Please?" Nayuz whined. "It's so boring just fighting Wakka or Selphie all day. You're the only one I haven't fought yet. I promise I won't hit you too hard."

"It isn't you hurting me that worries me, but..."

"Please?"

Kiea smiled. "Fine."

The smile faded from Nayuz's face. "Good." Quickly she pulled out some sharp, decorated knives. A rainbow-colored wall went up around the beach, and just as quickly disappeared. "Get ready."

"Wait! You aren't really going to use those, are you!" yelled Kiea.

"You agreed to fight, so fight I shall."

Kiea ran towards the dock where the boats where, but she wasn't able to get off the beach. It was like a wall was there. "Let me out!" she yelled at Nayuz.

"Fight, and win."

"Please, I don't want to fight you like this!" pleaded Kiea.

A knife shot right past her face and embedded in the invisible wall. "I said fight!" yelled Nayuz. A flurry of knives shot past Kiea.

"Terra!" yelled Kiea, and boulders shot up from the ground around whereNayuz was.

"That's what I wanted, Evergreen!" Kiea turned around to see Nayuz, and a tidal wave heading straight for the Destiny Islands.
