Vixen: Hey, peoples! And, WELCOME BAAAAAAAAAAAAACCCCCCCCKKKKK!
Sora: Somebody needs to come of the Skittels.
Vixen: What did you say!
Sora: Meep! Nothing; I didn't say anything!
Kairi: Can you guys do this later? The story's about to start.
Riku: Yeah, and you have a big part in this one, Kai'.
Kairi: Cool! Hey, can I have some popcorn?
A soft breeze was blowing off the ocean, swaying the leaves of the palm trees, so that a soft melody seemed to be playing if anybody cared to listen to it. Waves were lapping at the shore in an endless circle; up onto the white sand, then backwards to meet it's kin as the next wave came to touch the sands of the beach. The Destiny Islands are a perfect paradise.
But for Riku and I, this heaven on earth is like a cage for a creature used to running free in the wilds. I do not know the reason why; it just seems as if our hearts find discontent in the daily cycle of life that we have. These islands might seem like an escape from the real world, but in all reality, they were a prison surounded by water. The only person that understands my feelings is Riku. Riku is a bit of a reserved and questioning sort of young man, but he is not quiet or shy; it's just a little hard to get him to tell you what is really going on inside his mind.
But I know the best way to get him to talk; after all, we are twins, you can tell by looking at us. We have the same pale complextion, and silvery-white hair, although mine has streaks of black in it. We are also rather mature for just being fifteen years old. The only difference is in our eyes. His are the color of blue-green ice, while mine are a pale violet frost. I'm also quieter and more likely to notice something that others might miss. No matter what the difference in our personalities or appearance, however, we can agree on this: the Destiny Islands might be beautiful, but we need OUT.
"Hey, Tora!"
I woke up from my thoughts, staring out into the ocean, a beautiful blue-green today and looked around to see my best buddy Kairi running-up to me, excitment written all over her pretty face.
"Hi Kairi," I called to the red headed girl with a small smile. "What, is the tree house on fire or something?"
"No, but Riku and Sora came up with a plan to build a raft. After it's done, we're setting sail, to see what's out there. Do you want to come?" Kairi asked me, cocking an eyebrow. Why she asked, I don't know; she already knew the answer.
"Let's think," I replied in a sardonic tone, "What girl on this island that you know of has silver hair, ice colored eyes and wants to get out of here?" We both stood for a moment in mock silence. "I know...you!" Kairi shouted, and we both fell-down holding our sides; we were laughing so hard.
After we were able to breath again, we sat-up. "All right then, you need to get some rope and a decent sized piece of drift wood for the mast, and then tomorrow, we need some fruit. Okay?" Kairi asked, looking at me with her beautiful blue-violet eyes. They could melt the coldest of hearts at a glance.
"Fine," I said. But there had been a question at the back of my mind all day, so I had to ask. "Hey, Kairi, do you remember what your home town was like?" I ask her.
"Sorry, but I don't remember," Kairi said.
"Nothing at all?" I persisted.
"Nothing. But..." she halted.
"What?" I asked. If she remembered something, then I just had to know.
"Well, the only thing I remember is a woman with blond hair that had streaks of black mixed in. That's it." She said.
Sighing, I turned back to the waves. "Sometimes, I just wish we could leave and go to other worlds. Heck, I feel like that all the time." We both giggled at that, then Kairi stood up. "So, do you think you could get that stuff for me?" Kairi asked again.
"All right." I said in response, and I set out looking for the stuff that she asked for. The drift wood was easy to find, as some washed-up onto the beach daily. The rope was just as easy to find, I'd get it from my mom a bit later.
I was sitting by the pool next to the Secret Place, sketching my black cat Yami, when he walked by. I couldn't breath for a moment. Sora is just so cute, it makes me want to die. He has spiky brown hair and eyes shaded the same as a cloudless sky. What makes him so sweet is that at the age of fourteen, he still acts a bit childish, and he is also slightly naive.
While he is my brother's best friend, I have found that I have a soft spot for him. But even though I cherish a crush on him, at the same time I know I can't have him; because even though they don't know it, I think that Kairi and Sora love each other.
I saw that he was heading over to the little island where Riku was sitting on that paopu tree. I knew what was coming, so scooping up my drawing supplies and wooden sword, I whispered to my cat, "Let's go, Yami." And we rushed of to the island, ready to do battle.
I wasn't disappointed. As I caught up, I heard Riku saying "...you want to go a round?"
"Sure!" Sora said. Seeing me there, he asked, "Do you want to play as well Tora?"
"Okay," I said. I put down my art supplies and drew my sword as Riku and Sora drew their's. "Free for all, Yami is referee, all right?" I continued.
"Fine," Riku replied. Then getting serious, he said, "Three..."
"Two..." Sora called.
"One..." I sang out.
"Meow!" Yami cried. And as she watched, we flew at each other.
Staring into the distance,
Thinking of the past.
The feeling of being caged,
I need to get out of here;
And I need to do it fast.
I need to find my place,
I need to find were I belong.
Untill then all I will do is hurt my friends,
I don't want too, but I have to escape;
Or by my friends I'll do nothing but wrong.
I need a plan,
A way to change this life.
Before I'm trapped here forever,
I'll find a way out of here;
I'll get away, even if I have to fight.
Vixen: Oh, I forgot to say, that as much as I wish it were different; I DON'T OWN KINGDOM HEARTS OR ANY OF THESE CRAZY CRITTERS IN MY STORY!
Tora: THAT'S NOT TRUE! You own me and Yami.
Vixen: Oh yeah, I forgot. Bye-Bye peoples!
