Chapter fifteen: More Questions Than Answers
--------------------------
" You mean you don't remember?" Sora asked questionably. How could someone not know their own age?
" I don't remember because..." she paused, wondering if it was okay to tell him the truth. "Because I'm not real." Poor Sora, he was so confused by this all, he could hardly fit it in his adorable little head. Sora just stared at her, puzzled, not really sure what to think. While Namine was looking towards the ground, waiting for his reply.
"I don't get it." Sora said, scratching his head stupidly. (A/N: hehe. sorry, im making Sora a complete idiot, but thats okay. :p) Namine was so used to Sora's idiocity by now, she hardly noticed his stupid comments or reactions anymore.
" Its kind of hard to explain...see...when someone strong or important loses their heart, a new person is born." she said, rubbing her temples wearily.
" Butmy mommy told me that babies are born when mommy and daddy really love eachother, they-" but the blue-eyed-wonder was cut short by a slightly impatient Namine.
" Not like that Sora! A new person is born, not a new baby..." she explained as slowly as she could so the oaf could understand her.
" I still don't get it."
" Well...its like an empty shell of that person who has been swallowed by darkness. They arent necessarily like them, but they share similar characteristics. Like...eye color, facial structure, or height. Their...called Nobodies." she explained to the brunette.
" Okaaaaay...so what does these Nobodies have to do with you." Sora asked, sitting cross-legged and placing his elbows on his knees so his hand could support his head. Namine paused for minute, as if preparing herself. She was about to tell Sora her darkest secret, that only the Orginization knew about.
" I-I'm... a Nobody..." Namine said painfully. Sora was surprised by her confession. He would never have guessed...but how?
" Your-your a nobody?" Sora asked in disbelief, now out of his idiotic stage for the day. Namine slowly nodded her head. Sora's eye's were now wide as he sighed and rested his head on the cool, stone walls. " Sooooo your a shell of someone?" he said softly. She nodded her head. It must be hard, Sora thought, to know your not a real person, just an empty shell of someone...
"Who are you a Nobody of?" Sora asked cautiously. He didn't really want to offend her, so he waited patiently for her reply. Namine continued to stare at the floor blankly. She finally lifted her saddened head and opened her mouth to talk.
" I'm-I'm the Nobody of..." she paused shakily and gulped slightly, " I'm the Nobody of K a i r i."
-------------------------------------
Kairi shot up in a verticle position. It took her a moment to take in her stodgy surroundings until she slowly realized why she was there. She rubbed her head painfully. She had an odd dream that gave her a terrible headache for some reason...
The dream! It was so real! The falling, the monster, Sora...
Kairi groaned slightly, and moved her legs so they were dangling from the edge lazily. She stopped rubbing her head and stood up shakily. Thats when she remembered what she needed to ask Roxas. She hopped over the miscellaneous items on the floor and finally made it to the dark red door. The cool, brass doorknob tingled her palms out of nervousness as she pushed the door open. Why was she nervous? It was slightly obvious, from all the odd things that have been going on, she didn't know what to expect beyond that door.
Beyond the open door was a rather short hallway with extremely short doors that reached the base of her neck The walls were a deep red that she has never seen before while the soft, carpeted floors were a bubble-gum pink. She wrinkled her nose is curiousity as she tried to open most of the doors. But to her disapointment, they were locked. She placed her hands on her hips as she scanned the rest of the hallway.
Her violet eyes lingered at the door at the very end of the hallway. It was slightly larger than the other doors, and was decorated lavishly. The handle of the door was, to her surprise, in fact a glimmering gold. The wooden door was lined with gold, old-fashioned designs that made twists and turns and somehow resebled leaves. Kair thought it was poorly done, because there were some smugdes of gold on the red part of the door.
She shrugged to herself as she crouched down low and pushed the door open slowly to reveal an even more cramped room. The room resembled a square with the same, dark walls as in the hallway. At the opposite end of the where she was standing, was a rather small, golden throne that sat a rather chubby king dressed with the oddest clothes she had ever seen a king wear. ( Not that she had ever seen one that is...) Instead of a long, beautiful cape, he had a cape that only made it to the top of his torso! It wasn't even made with care, it looked more like a red rag then a royal cape. He wore white, ripped shorts that reached to his knees. His plain, white shirt had a large hole near his stomach, letting his flab go noticed. He didn't look too clean either...
Thats when she noticed Donald, Goofy, Shai, Roxas, and a group of four other people she didn't recodnize. One was a shortish girl with long, sparkling auborn hair that was in a very loose ponytail and and seemed to shine fushia in the dim light as it reached the top of her knees. She had kind, grey eyes that resembled stainless steel. She wore red overalls that ended at her mid thigh. Under that, she had a plain pearl colored shirt that was cuffed at the ends. She wore white and pink shoes that had high tops so it covered her ankles. On her left wrist was a purple tattoo that wrapped around it skillfully with a unique design. It reminded Kairi or vines, wrapping around her wrist. The girl's face had some baby fat that Kairi knew would probably not go away because she was obviously from Minus. Which was kind of odd because she looked so nice and happy...
The man next to the girl was very short and pugdy man with flaming red hair and a curly, red mustage placed on his round face as a finishing touch. He was very round around the middle, and had short legs. He wore a red, long sleeved shirt that had what looked like grease stains, or other things Kairi didn't want to know. This was tucked in sloppily into white shorts with large, silver buckles that also went slightly passed the knee. He wore flaming red shoes that had large buckles around it aswell. He had the same, purple marking on his left wrist. What was odd was that he looked extremely familiar...
The third guy was unnaturally tall with longish, silver hair that resembled Riku's. He was very bulky, but not that much. It looked like he would be extremely strong though...maybe it didn't show because he was so slim. He had icey eyes that looked stern, but care-free at the same time. He wore a midnight blue muscle shirt that showed off his slightly pumped arms, and lean, but strong torso. He had white, baggy pants with many random zippers. He had four glistening blue belts that were hung at his hips loosely and had oversized, decorated with black buckles. His shoes were hardly seen, but they were black with cerulean blue lining on the sides, giving it a more finished look. He too had a purple tattoo around his wrist that resembled vines.
The fourth and last person was rather tall for a girl, with very dark blue hair that have her a mysterious, tough vibe. Her strong, indigo eyes were slightly like Kairi's, but fiercer and not as violet, and was rimmed with black eye-liner to give her eyes even more depth. She wore a long, midnight blue coat that was glimmering from the shiny leather. It reached her ankles and had heavy, silver buckles and zippers all over it. Underneath that she wore a form fitting, cerulean blue tank top. As bottoms, she wore baggy black pants with even more silver zippers. Her shoes were the color of her hair, but were covered by her long, black pants. You could scarcely see the tattoo wrapping around her wrist from her long coat.
All in all, they looked like a very interesting group. Intiminating...but interesting. They were all crouched over an extremely low table, that was directly infront of the king's throne as they were obviously conversing about something.
The heavy door behind her closed with more noise that Kairi expected, making her jump slightly. Everyone's heads turned towards her in surprise. They all stood up straight as Shai smiled at Kairi.
" Hello Kairi, nice of you to be joining us." she said in her cool voice, but she could tell there was some hints of exitement. Silence pressed at everyone's ears as they all examined Kairi, making her slightly embarassed.
" Uhhhhhh..." Kairi said, hinting some kind of conversation.
" Oh! Right. Kairi, this is the Purple Clan. This is Konjoh," she pointed to the short, red man, " Kofuku," she pointed to the bubbly girl with overalls," Yuki," she pointed to the strong, tall man," and Mirai." she pointed to the tallish, goth girl. " Guys, meet Kairi." she said, gestering for Kairi to come forward. She walked in hesitantly from the mixed looks of each person. Another awkward silence filled the air like a disease as everyone continued to stare at Kairi. Why are they staring at me?
" Ummm...so what were you guys talking about?" Kairi asked, trying to start a normal conversation.
" Oh! We were just talking about how we were going to get to Addis!" the bubbly girl named Kofuku exclaimed while bouncing up and down happily.
" You could calm now you know..." the goth named Mirai stated in a monotone voice, folding her arms infront of her. Kofuku just stuck her tongue out playfully and turned back to Shai.
" Come on Kairi... we need help." Shai said cooly. Kairi nodded her head slowly and made her way over to the low table. She has never been too well with new faces, especially when she just woke up from an odd sleep...
She reached the table and looked at the pile of disorganized papers stacked in a cluttered way all over the table. All nine people lent over the table while the king stayed in his throne. The king was eyeing her suspiciously, but Kairi just shook it off after she realized she was never introduced to him.
" Okay... so all we have to do is take Donald's gummie ship and fly to Addis?" the silver haired man named Yuki questioned. Roxas nodded his head silently.
" Yes...from there we will go straight to the palace and talk to the queen and ask permission to look for the Door to Good Things." Roxas answered, folding his arms infron of him. So he's still is in his gloomy mood then...
"Sounds too easy...I bet that beautiful and inteligent queen of Addis will be delighted to let us find the door." the man named Konjoh stated almost too nicely. (Translation: This sounds too easy... I bet that idiot as a queen won't let us look for the door in heruseless world.) Mirai, Shai, and Yuki all glared at him in discust as Kofuku just shook her head. At first... Kairi didn't understand why they were glaring at him, but then she remembered that being nice was an insult in Minnus. She didn't think he really liked the queen that much, but... wasn't he on the purple clan, making him love each world and wanting to bring peace? I'm too confused right now...
" Don't ever say that again you Flurr!" Yuki snapped angrily, clenching his fists. This only made Konjoh madder as his face became flushed with anger.
" Please, I would rather not have you say that." (Translation: Your going to wish you never said that!) Konjoh said too nicelyas he pounced on Yuki from across the table. (A/N: o.O) Everyone shot up from their crouching positions and stared at the scuffle before them. They were now on the floor, with Konjoh ontop and punching Yuki like mad, while Yuki was trying to defend himself. They rolled over and now Yuki was ontop. He stood up, and began to kick him... hard. Kairi had NO idea what was going on.
Whats a Flurr? Must be some kind of an insult to people from Minus. Kairi thought as she continued to watch them in disbelief. The first one to take action was Kofuku.
" Stop! We are all from the purple clan! We should be agreeing and being friends!" she cried despirately as she struggled to seperate them. Ignoring Kofuku's protests, Konjoh recovered from Yuki's strong kicks, and stood up and began to puch the tired Yuki in the stomach continually. You could see a trickle of blood escape from Yuki's mouth...
" STOP! Don't hurt him!" Kofuku yelled despiratly as she saw Yuki continue to wince in pain. Suddenly, her eyes glowed yellow, and a strongwind began to surround her. The two imidiately stopped fighting. Konjoh ran to the group limping while Yuki stayed as close as he could to Kofuku as the winds became stronger. The wirlwinds of strong gusts became so strong, that Kairi began to find it hard to stand straight and not fall backwards. She put her arms infront of her to try to block the wind like everyone else.
A soft glow began to emit from Kofuku as the winds became stronger still, ripping the rooms to shreds. The short king was hiding behind his golden throne shakily, clutching to the base so he wouldn'tfall baclwards, while everyone else was holding onto the low table in the middle of the room. But one person was standing upright, and it was Yuki, trying to stay as close to Kofuku as possible.
" KOFUKU! Wake up! Stay in control Kofuku!" he screamed through the fierce winds... althouugh it was muffled. But his words had no effect on her, and she began to rise above the ground mystically. Yuki made one last atempt, and jumped as hard as he could and grabbed the auborn girl around the waist as he held on for dear life.
" Yuki..." she mumbled as the winds began to disperse slowly, until the winds were completely gone, and leaving the room quiet while the two people continued to hold on to eachother. The sight was slightly odd, Yuki was so tall, he seemed to be at almost double Kofuku's height. But still They held onto eachother until the yellow light disapeared from her eyes, and she fainted in Yuki's arms.
An eary silence filled the room as Yuki quietly picked the girl up with ease and carried her baby style towards the shocked party.
" Will she be okay?" Kairi asked worridly up to Yuki. He spun his head towards her direction, almsost like he forgot she was there and smiled softly down at her.
" Yes. You don't have to worry." he said softly before he left the room withought another word. Kair turned away from him and flinched at the terrible distruction the odd, wind power left behind. The low table was now knocked up-side-down, and all the papers that were on it were scattered across the room randomly. Kairi scanned her eyes towards the golden throne, which was currently on its side with a rather happy looking king. (A/N: Remeber that nice is bad in Minus...)
" Why, that show was incredible! Don't mind all the papers, I'll clean them up in a jiffy! Oh, but Shai... are you hurt my daughter? Please say you are fine! I'm so glad your my daughter... I'm not sure what I would do withought you!" he said cheerfully.(Translation: What in the name of Minus was that! Look at all the papers on the floor! What will I do? Shai! This is all your fault! Why, If you werent my daughter...) Shai and Konjoh both flinched while everyone was slightly confused, except for Mirai, who kept a straight face and an interested stare.
But out of all of them, Kairi was the most confused. Okay... what just happened? How did Kofuku get that strange power? Why does the King look so happy? And why did he call Shai his daughter! Why am I always so left out?
Wait... that would make Shai a princess!
" And what about our guests? I'm sure our worriors and Princess of Heart would not like to be in such a mess! Shai, would you mind giving me a hand with these papers? I know that you a Princess of Heart and all but-" but the king was cut short. (Translation: And get these guests out of here! I have no need for three worriors and A Princess of Heart in my castle! And Shai! Clean up this room single handedly! I don't care that you are a Princess of Heart! Just-) Kairi and Shai jerked their heads suddenly towards eachother and said at the sametime:
" YOUR A PRINCESS OF HEART!"
----------------------------------------------
Muahaha! My little twist! Bet you werent expecting that! Its a tad short... I was going to make it longer, but I ran out of paper. (not really, but It's getting late over here...) Hehe... like the power things that Kofuku has? I'll explain all the questions in the next chapter, you just have to be a little patient.
(( sorry if you though Kofuku's powers were a little rash, the nect chapter will explain all.))
REVIEW AND I'LL REPLY!
