Heys! I've been having fun with this story. And I've been wanting some reviews, please and thanks. By the way, I am working on a little chibi manga of this story. Mostly since I can't draw normal manga. I kick ass at chibis! Anyways, get yerselves some salsa Doritos and an Orangina and get reading ya lazy bum!
"Anna, get up!" Kairi called from the bathroom next to her room. "We have to meet Selphie and get to school in a half hour."
"Fiiine." I grumbled, as I slugged into her bathroom as I dunked my face in a foamy, soapy washcloth, to clean off the seawater from yesterday, and my oiliness. I looked at Kairi through squinting eyes (soap got in one of them). "Why don't I get a uniform?"
"We're going to get you one." Kairi said quickly, toothbrush sticking out of her mouth as she passed out of the bathroom. "Hurry up, we have to go."
I took my time, in a very, very rushed way, as I brushed through my hair, tying it up in pigtails. Then, clumping down the stairs, with my Kyo bag comfortably on my back, Kairi grabbed me by the wrist and yanked me out the door.
Selphie, was almost what I had expected, except, those weird flippy things her hair does, was actually just the look hair gets when you take it out of a hair tie. You know, kind of flippy.
She was, in a way, too happy. I mean, like annoying happy. Fortunately, Kairi explained to me that Selphie was a grade below her and that we wouldn't have to see her for the rest of the day.
And I thought I could sound mean!
My first adventure at the school was learning that I was already gossip. I was "Kairi Mark 2" damnit, that was annoying! There were fifth grade like kids running up to me, and asking me how I got here. Isn't it obvious!
I was sitting, in a very fidgety position in Kairi's first class, it was mixed, and Sora was sitting in the middle of the room. There weren't any desks, but instead there were tables that seat two or three people.
It seemed like the class divided the students by sex. All the boys were on one side, the girls on the other. I continued to find myself scanning the room when I heard Kairi getting yelled at.
"Who is this girl, Kairi?" the teacher yelled at her. "Do you think you're allowed to bring friends of yours here, and in class none the less."
"You see," she started. "This is Anna, and she—"
"My world got destroyed." I interrupted. Murmurs became extremely noticeable in the class as I had said that.
"I see…" the teacher continued. "Do you have any idea as to why it was destroyed?"
"She told us already." Sora replied from his seat in the room.
"Yes," the teacher resumed. "I would expect someone who's friends with Kairi to have told you as well…" The teacher was an older man, perhaps, late fifties or so, his hair was already grey and his skin was a bit sullen. His eyes were cold and piercing, as they caught me off guard as I strange, Kingdom Heart obsessed urge squirted through me. "Would you like to tell the rest of your peers here why your world was destroyed?"
I felt the color drain from my face as I found myself thinking about the various organization members. "Uh…" I paused. "Because the Heart of my World was taken by the Heartless."
"And do you know why the Heartless got to your worlds Heart?" he continued, causing Kairi to look a bit angry at her teacher.
"Mr. Droul!" she yelled, making the teacher look extremely upset. "You can't just harass a new student like this!" The teacher, Mr. Droul, stopped himself and returned to the center of the classroom.'
"You're absolutely right, Kairi." He announced as he looked at me with this strange sinister smile. "Now, where were we on Friday's lesson?"
The day passed by quickly, and despite feeling paranoid and nervous that Mr. Droul knew exactly how my world was destroyed.
It was my fault.
"So, what did you think?" Kairi asked me on the way to her house. I shook my head shakily.
"It was great except for that first teacher." I said. "He knew."
"Don't worry about it," Kairi continued. "Mr. Droul always acts like that when it's a Monday." We began to pass the docks where the boats were tied up.
"Kairi." I said sternly. "He kept asking me if I knew exactly why my world was destroyed. He knew."
She shrugged. "Maybe that was just your mind playing tricks on you, I mean, you even told me that you felt guilty about feeling like you were responsible for your world's destruction."
That night, probably around ten or eleven, when Kairi was asleep, I snuck out. Yep, I snuck out. And I headed down to the docks to Kairi's boat. I untied the rope holding her boat to the dock, and I rowed out to the island. I liked the island. It was really peaceful. I could only compare to the island to the house I stayed at in Northern Maine.
I jumped out of Kairi's boat after I tied it to the dock, and sat at the docks edge. The sky was really clear, and the stars were bright, and I could clearly see the boat slowly drifting towards me. Nervously, I jumped up and began to run off the dock.
Stalkers! Stalkers I say! I hope it's not that creepy teacher from school. Ahh, he was sooo weird, and he was so freakin' persistent! And—
"It's a bit past your bedtime, isn't it, Anna?" called a voice from behind me making me stop in place and look back.
Sora was standing there, a smile on his face, as if he was ready to start laughing.
"What're you doing here?" I asked.
"What are you doing here." He contradicted.
"Why are you following me?"
"Isn't it obvious?"
"Why don't you go home?"
"Why should I?"
I lost the question game. "Damnit!" I paused. "You're good."
I walked to the edge of the dock again, and sat down at the edge next to Sora.
"Why are you here anyways?" he asked, no I'm not starting another match.
"I felt like coming here." I lied. It was really because of that freaky teacher.
"Don't lie." Sora scolded. "Why are you here?"
I sighed, seeing that he's good at seeing through acts. "That teacher of yours."
"Mr. Droul?" he asked.
"Something's really strange about him." I commented. "Haha, maybe he's some new threat."
"I said the same thing to Kairi!" Sora added. "I told her he was!"
I sighed a sigh of relief. "Good, I'm not the only one then."
There was a pause…A very awkward pause.
"You want a new adventure, don't you?" I asked him, seeming to finally clear something up with myself.
He smirked. "Yeah, I wouldn't mind, just as long as I could come home again."
I looked up to a sky, and saw a star blink out. "I think you're going to get one." I said. "With the stars going out like this, I think you're needed."
And somehow, this is how my real adventures in Kingdom Land began.
