Chapter 22 Joshua

Sora's POV

I was walking around Shibuya.

"Okay", I started. "The first thing I should do is look for a partner."

And as soon as I said this...a group of those creatures appeared!

"Oh great", I said sarcastically. "Do you guys ever stop?"

With that...one of the creatures leaped at me, but before it could hit me...it was knocked out!

I turned around to see who had done it...and couldn't believe my eyes.

Standing in front of me was...Joshua!

"Joshua", I said in shock.

"Hello Sora", Joshua greeted. "I didn't expect to see you here."

"And I didn't expect to see you here", I revealed. "What are you doing here?"

"I can only assume for the same reason you are here", Joshua replied.

Then...he held out his hand...and I saw...a timer.

"I see", I said in realization. "You're in the game."

"And so are you", Joshua added.

"Yep", I replied.

"Well then", Joshua started. "Shall we be partners?"

"Sure", I replied.

Then...I took Joshua's hand...and light swirled around us.

"Good", he stated. "Now that that's been taken care of, I need your help with something. Follow me."

With that I followed Joshua.

"There is an invisible wall here and I can't get rid of it", he revealed.

Then I walked up to him and held my hand out, and eventually...I touched something solid.

"Not this again", I said in dismay. "How do we get rid of this?"

"Well", Joshua started. "These walls are usually created by support Reapers."

"Support Reapers", I asked in confusion.

"They're the lowest ranking Reapers", Joshua revealed. "They're in charge of making these walls and coming up with objectives players need to complete in order for the walls to be taken down."

"Okay", I started. "So we need to find a support Reaper. How?"

"It's quite easy actually", Joshua revealed. "They usually wear red hoodies."

"So we just need to look for somebody wearing a red hoodie", I asked.

"Yep", Joshua replied. "And there happens to be one right behind you."

When Joshua said this I turned around, and saw a girl wearing a red hoodie.

"Excuse me Ms", Joshua greeted. "Are you a Reaper?"

"Yes", the reaper replied softly, and for some reason...her voice sounded familiar.

"Did you put up this wall", Joshua asked.

"Yes", the reaper replied.

"How do we take it down", Joshua asked.

The girl didn't answer. Instead...she held out her arm...and a bunch of those creatures appeared!

"Defeat those creatures and I'll take down the wall", the reaper revealed.

"Excellent", Joshua said before looking at me. "You ready for this Sora?"

"Let's do this!"

With that Joshua and I started fighting those creatures, but as we were doing so...something happened.

I ended up getting knocked down by one of them!

It leaped at me, but before it could hit me...something happened.

The Reaper stood in front of me...and held her hand out making the creature disappear.

Then...her hood fell down down...and I couldn't believe my eyes.

"Kairi?"

HotXbun: Dun dun dun! Bet you weren't expecting that.

Challenge: Tell me what you think is going on with Kairi.

My Answer: Not telling!
