An Angel Among Us
Episode 2: You're Haunting my dreams...
There was no mistaking who had just called. The caller I.D. read Hutchins. Sora immediately realized that that creepy girl had just called and hung up. Now he faced a dilemma. He could call her back and tell her parents that she was stalking him, or Sora could be nice and try his best to ignore the call.
"I'll worry about it later," Sora said placing the phone back in its charger.
Sora returned to his video game and played it for the next half an hour. After he was finished with that, he ventured into the kitchen and picked the phone up once more. He dialed Pizza Hut and ordered himself some pizza. The operator informed him that it would take thirty minutes to an hour and Sora hung up.
The doorbell rang as Sora was eating his third slice. Still holding the pizza, Sora rushed down the hallway and peered through the little hole at the top of the door. It was that strange red-haired girl.
"Aw crap, now what do I do?" Sora wondered setting down the pizza. Deciding not to be rude, Sora slowly opened the door.
"Oh, I've seen you at school" he said.
"Yeah, my name is Kairi. I leave across the street" Kairi said. Sora nodded slightly.
"Listen, about last year-" Kairi began.
"Don't worry about it" Sora interrupted. "I'd completely forgotten."
"Oh, in that case, I just wanted to stop by and say hello" Kairi said.
"Sure" Sora said politely.
Kairi turned around and walked back towards her house. Sora watched her open the front door and disappear inside before he closed his own door. He headed back to the kitchen and grabbed another slice of pizza.
"That was... weird" He said biting into the pizza.
That night, Sora found himself incased within dreams. He saw things that never happened or were even possible. He saw himself and Kairi. He was holding her up as they flew over Destiny Island. He had large golden wings that flapped mightily. The strangest thing was that they were both happy. Kairi was smiling at him and he was smiling at her. It seemed like, together, Sora and Kairi were in paradise.
Sora awoke a few moments later. Vivid images of his dream flashed through his mind, seemingly embedding themselves onto the backs of his eyelids. Whenever he closed his eyes Sora saw that image of himself and Kairi. Could it have possibly been a glimpse of the future? No, that wasn't possible. Sora got out of bed and headed towards his window. He opened it and climbed out to the roof. It was a beautiful night. Clouds or anything didn't block the sky. One could naturally assume they could see forever into the galaxy above.
But Sora wasn't looking at the stars or the sky. His eyes were focused intently on Kairi's house. He could see a light on in one of the upper story windows.
"Is that her?" Sora wondered. He saw shadows moving beyond it but couldn't make out any particular person. He sat out on his roof for a couple more hours, pondering all the events that had taken place in the short time he'd been on Destiny Island. His mind wandered back towards his childhood, but to his surprise he couldn't remember much after moving to Destiny Island. What was going on with his head? He scratched his head vigorously and opened the window. Sora clambered in and shut the window.
The next day Sora awoke to a pitch-black room. A quick glance outside confirmed his thought. It was pouring rain outside and the sky was thick with bulging clouds as dark as ever. A bolt of lightning streaked across the inky blackness, momentarily lighting up the entire island.
Sora's hand reached out desperately to find a light switch. His fingers found the switch and immediately light returned to the room. He stood up and yawned, stretching his arms as he did. After a few moments he entered the shower.
After he finished gelling his hair Sora headed down the hallway and down to the kitchen. He started the stove and began making himself some scrambled eggs. He was still half-asleep, but managed to make them more or less as they should be. After a quick breakfast, Sora headed back upstairs and grabbed his raincoat and umbrella. He buttoned the coat and headed outside.
The sky roared with the thunderous sounds of a heavy thunderstorm that was sure to last all day. Sora held his umbrella up and splashed through a puddle at the end of the street. He attempted to quicken his pace so he wouldn't have to stay outside longer, but was forced to slow down because of the wet sidewalk. He shivered slightly and regretted not putting on that second sweatshirt. Sora thought that he should have at least brought it along with him.
Class blew by fast and Sora found himself sitting in English, his very last period. The teacher was busy talking about their first assignment so Sora took this opportunity to take note of the people in his class. He noticed Tidus and Wakka, as well as Namine who somehow sat next to him in all of his classes. His eyes noticed Kairi and quickly darted away. It was getting worse. She, like Namine, was in every single on of his classes except Computer Programming. But it seemed like every time he saw her he felt something inside of him. Sora could for the life of him figure out what that something was and hoped it wasn't what he thought it was.
It was around 3:03pm when Sora finally managed to get to his locker. He opened it and collected his math, science and history books and closed his locker. After zipping up his backpack, Sora headed out the school entrance and began the walk home. It had been a long tiring day and Sora's head was hurting slightly. But, for some reason, he couldn't get Kairi out of his thoughts. It was creepy how she managed to stay within his mind even if he hadn't seen her in awhile. It was weird the way he thought of her. He even remembered dreaming about her somehow. But as far back as Sora could remember he'd never even known Kairi until he'd moved to Destiny Island. Then, he realized, he couldn't remember ever living anywhere but Destiny Island. It was very strange and made his head hurt even more. Deciding to try and forget about it, Sora continued the walk back to his house.
Sora arrived at his house and immediately went upstairs and turned on his TV. He popped in Fullmetal Alchemist and began watching.
Sora didn't realize he'd fallen asleep, but he still could see his dream. He was standing on the edge of Destiny Island. The tide licked at his heels. The strangest thing was that he could actually feel the coolness of the salty water as it made contact with his feet. Sora looked around and stepped at little farther away from the water. He saw someone coming up the beach. It was Kairi and him.
"What the?" Sora wondered as he watched himself and Kairi. They were both wearing swimsuits, but once again Sora had thick golden wings protruding from his back. Dream Sora picked Kairi up and dropped her into the ocean. She splashed to the surface, laughing and smiling at the same time. Sora felt a smile coming up over his face. This may have been a freaky dream, but it was one that he was actually enjoying.
Then, the sky darkened and a giant silver barrier rose from the ground, cutting Dream Sora away from Kairi. Sora watched as dream Sora tried to break his way through the thick silver barrier, which Kairi was enchanted with. Dream Sora was yelling and screaming for Kairi to come to her sense, but Kairi wasn't listening. Finally, Sora saw a giant church like house looming in the distance. He saw Kairi running to the house and into it, while Dream Sora looked on from the sidelines with a sad expression on his face.
There was a point where Dream Sora flew away, but he returned and the giant silver barrier lowered, allowing Kairi and Dream Sora to embrace. They kissed passionately and then Dream Sora flew into the heavens and was gone.
Sora awoke the next morning with the dream still fresh in his mind. It all seemed so familiar, but Sora couldn't ever remember that big house or ever having wings. In short, he found the whole concept ridiculous.
It was Saturday, so Sora didn't have to go to school. He decided to head down into the mainland and look around. He dressed in his favorite red shirt and black shorts and headed outside. He immediately ran into Kairi, who seemed quite flustered about something.
"Sora, I had to ask you something..." Kairi began. Sora, remembering the dream, had a very weird expression on his face.
"Listen, last night I-"
"You had the same dream I did, didn't you?" Kairi asked.
Sora was taken aback. Just who was this girl and why were they having the same dreams?
"This proves what I was saying be-"
"NO! It doesn't mean anything! It was just a weird coincidence" Sora snapped.
"No it wasn't, don't you see?" Kairi asked.
"No, I don't" Sora said angrily. "Look, whatever your name is... Kairi, stay away from me. I don't know who you are!"
"Bu-"
"No, you're freaking me out here. Look, I've got to go" Sora said. And then he turned around and ran off, leaving a very hurt girl behind him...
