Kingdom Hearts: Slave of Love Revised
Ch.6 Kairi's New Life
Sora kept quiet as he watched Leon opening one of the many doors in the hallway.
With nothing to do he glanced around the place in quiet fascination, admiring how clean and big it was.
This was new to him. Hollow Bastion was full of old buildings that were about to fall apart. There were a few good buildings but they were places for gang leaders and similar kinds of people. Since Hollow Bastion was a place full of crime these kinds of people decided to make a living off of it.
That was the way people like that would think but not him.
Sora had been a kind of idealist for some time. Wishes of Hollow Bastion getting better and becoming a great place to live had filled his head for a few years. Those wishes had been discarded as he grew up, knowing that he wouldn't be able to make a difference on something so big.
He settled for being with his friends and making sure they were alright no matter what.
"Alright kid…" Leon began as he opened the door to reveal a spacious room.
Bookshelves, desks and a spacious bed made up the room. The bed being in the middle of the room with a desk to its left and a bookshelf on its right. There was another door opposite of the bed which probably led to a closet or bathroom.
It was a great room but the thing that fascinated Sora the most was the open window with a clear view of the school's luscious garden and a faraway mountain.
"This is it."
Sora followed as Leon entered the room, his eyes looking around in wonder. He was mesmerized by the place. It had a beautiful view and was bigger than his and Aqua's rooms put together, hell, it was a bit smaller than his whole house.
Leon fought the urge to chuckle when noticing the way Sora looked at the place. He shook his head before opening a notebook Kairi had left on her desk and ripping out a piece of paper, writing a quick note before turning his attention back to Sora.
"This is my sister's room. So, under no circumstance other than cleaning, are you to come in here got it," he spoke with a cold glare, making Sora shrink under his gaze and nod frantically. The officer smirked before taking out a key and walking over to the teen, "I'm going to take these off now. Don't get any ideas of running away since… well, I'll explain in a bit."
Sora let out a sigh as Leon took off his handcuffs. If it had been any other time he would have bolted for the door but he knew better. Not only was he sure that Leon could kick his ass but he was sure that whatever he had to explain would have to do with him running away.
The officer pocketed the handcuffs before taking out the S.O.R. Sora took an involuntary step back, remembering how the thing felt when activated.
Leon noticed this and smirked before placing it on Kairi's desk. "Now let me explain," he began while crossing his arm, "The remote is able to shock you if you try to run away. I made it so that it activates if you go over one hundred meters from the school. So, don't get any ideas."
Sora glanced at the bracelet with a glare. The thing was really annoying, it felt more like a leash than anything else.
"Don't try to hide the remote since I already wrote about it on the note and you don't want to get a person capable of magic angry," he explained further, ignoring the teen's angry look, "Other than that, make sure to fulfill my request and I'll get yours done."
The teen nodded before a wave of realization hit him. "Wait a minute, you don't even know where I live," he pointed an accusing finger at Leon, "You were going to just leave and tell me you got it done!"
"I was about to ask you for it," Leon sighed out while pressing two fingers to his forehead, an old habit of his. Of course this was only a cover-up since he had actually forgotten to ask for the address. Whatever, it wasn't like Sora realized it anyway.
Sora nodded hesitantly before walking to the desk and ripping out a piece of paper, taking a pen and writing the address down. "Here you go," he handed the paper to Leon as concern showed on his face, "I'm not really one to ask for favors but, please help them."
The officer said nothing as he moved towards the door, throwing a glance at Sora before leaving, "I'll get it done, don't worry."
With that the officer left, leaving Sora alone in the room with a bitter look on his face.
'Did he just try to look cool?' he narrowed his eyes in distaste before sitting on an empty chair near the window, 'I might as well wait for that girl. It's not like I can do anything else for now."
Kairi dragged her feet as she walked along the hallway of the girl's dormitory. A few beads of sweat trailed down her rosy cheeks due to the hot weather. Oh, how she wished to go back to her room and take a bath to cool off.
She reached her room's door to find a note attached to it. Cocking her head to the side in confusion, Kairi took the paper in hand before reading its contents.
Got your slave…
Leon
An involuntary sigh escaped her lips over reading the not so detailed note before realization struck her. He got her a slave. Someone to take care of things while she focused in school.
A smile formed on her face before reaching for the door's handle only to stop.
'What if it's some dangerous criminal?' She thought in concern as she pulled her hand back. 'But Leon got the slave for me… so there's no problem, right?'
Even though she tried to calm herself, she still found it hard to enter the room. It was a scary thought to have a stranger with a criminal record waiting for her, on her own room no less. Maybe he had even prepared a trap for when she entered.
Her magic wasn't really good and she knew for a fact that she could be overpowered with the slightest amount of physical strength, not that the person behind her doo knew anyway.
She managed a smile as she thought over the last fact. The slave didn't know about her which meant that threatening to use magic would be enough.
'Alright then,' she nodded to herself before opening the door to her room. Her heartbeat rose as her eyes scanned for the slave and, to her surprise, found a teen sitting on a chair with a look of surprise.
His bright blue eyes looked at her own curiously, fingers curling slightly as he studied her.
Kairi took in the intruder's appearance before frowning, "Hey! What are you doing here? This is the girl's dormitory and, most of all, my room!"
The teen continued to look at her curiously before snapping his gaze away from her. "My bad," his voice was gentle as a small embarrassed smile formed on his face, "Why, I'm really sorry. I must have gotten lost again."
"You got lost?" Kairi asked suspiciously, not believing a word this person was saying.
He nodded before getting up to his feet and scratching the back of his head sheepishly, "Yeah, but I guess it's because I'm new here. They told me to find my room but I ended up here."
Sora continued his charade while moving for the door, his smile not faltering, "I'll just leave now. I hope I didn't cause you any trouble."
He continued to the door before Kairi finally decided to speak.
"Wait right there."
Sora turned to the girl, watching as her eyes narrowed on him, "That's an interesting bracelet you have on."
His arm instinctively went behind his back to cover up the bracelet as he quickly thought of an excuse, "Oh! Um… you see! This is a gift from my uncle."
"Uncle, huh?" Kairi noticed the remote on her desk and picket it up, looking at Sora with a dangerous glint on her eyes, "Then I guess there won't be any sort of problem if I use this?"
"Fine," he growled as he showed her the bracelet. "I was brought her by that scary Leon guy," a sheepish look etched on his face as he let out a chuckle when seeing that Kairi had yet to put the remote away, "Can't blame a guy for trying, right?"
She continued to study him before placing the remote on her desk. "Okay, I'll drop it this time since it's our introduction as slave and master," her voice was sharp, leaving no room to talk, "I'll go over what I want you to do later. For now get out of my room and wait until I'm ready, we're going out."
Sora looked at her in confusion, "Out? Like to a store or something?"
"To where you'll be staying," she responded with annoyance clear on her voice, "Now get out of here and wait."
'Just like her crazy brother…' Sora's right eye twitched in anger as Kairi entered the other door of the room, leading to a bathroom.
He scoffed before going out of the room, closing the door behind him and sitting against the wall next to it.
He had a feeling that they day would only get worse from then on.
Kairi smiled to herself as she finished getting ready. After taking a bath and wearing clean clothes, she felt completely refreshed, as if she had just gotten hours of sleep.
She wore a simple light blue blouse with a white skirt. It wasn't like she had to dress for anything and the clothing seemed appropriate for the type of weather.
Glancing at herself on the mirror one last time, she cast a look across the room in case she forgot something. There seemed to be nothing she was forgetting so she exited the room before locking the door, turning to her side to see Sora sitting against a wall with his arms crossed.
"Let's go," she ordered while beginning to move.
Sora looked at her oddly before getting up and following after her. His sharp eyes noticed her lack of pockets or purse and saw nothing that looked like a remote on her hand. A smile spread on his face, it looked like Kairi had forgotten the remote back at the room.
The walk was quiet, an uncomfortable silence filling the area as they moved. Sora turned his attention to his surroundings upon leaving the building, being greeted with green pastures and bright blue skies, unaware of Kairi throwing him a glance.
He was looking around the place like an idiot, a look of wonder on his eyes. Kairi rolled her eyes before removing her gaze from him as a frown etched on her face, it looked like the guy was an idiot.
The place where they were going was not so far now. She could see the building, next to the main school one, coming closer and closer. There the slave would learn what and how he was going to be working.
"We're here," she announced with her voice holding the same sharpness. Sora threw her a bored look, not really caring where they were. She noticed this and frowned, "Why are you looking at me like an idiot?"
Sora squinted his eyes on her, arms crossing, "I don't know I guess it's because I don't know why we came here."
"I was just about to explain that so shut up," she frowned at him, "This building here is where slaves due most of their work. Here they clean clothes, get supplies and sleep. So, to put it simply, this is where you'll be staying."
He looked at the building before glancing back at Kairi, "Am I going to stay here the rest of the day."
"No, you'll just find someone to explain what you'll be doing and go over it," she informed with Sora looking at her oddly, "I'm going to be leaving but I want you to come back to my room for further orders when you're done. If I'm not there then wait outside. Understood?"
Sora shrugged before nodding and entering the building.
Kairi smiled once he was gone. Her new life had officially started today. She could focus on her schoolwork now and actually have time to spend with her friends. And of course the thing she was looking forward to the most, hours of sleep that she didn't have the luxury to have before.
She hummed a quiet tune as she made her way back to the girl's dormitory. Her homework hadn't been much and she wanted to finish it before the slave came back, that way she could go to Selphie's later and tell her about the new slave of hers.
It had been around an hour after she had dropped Sora off as she finished the last of her homework with a happy smile.
She stretched her arms over her head before looking around the room, finding it to be a bit dirty. Before, she would have started to clean but now she had someone else that would take care of that.
While it was true that she had been against having a slave at first, that view changed after a while.
The young slave had committed a crime and for that he was sentenced with working for her. This sentence had been self-given since the person could make the choice of going to prison or just working under someone. It wasn't like they were forced, as Selphie had said before.
The door suddenly opened, making her jump on her seat before glaring at the slave with no kinds of manners.
"You're here already," he nodded at her before walking to the chair next to the window and sitting down, "So, what's up?"
Kairi kept a cold glare on the teen, fists clenching slightly. "What do you think you're doing? You can't just enter like that," she scolded to Sora who only rolled his eyes, "Don't roll your eyes at me! What if I had been changing?"
"Then you would have locked the door," Sora responded calmly before shaking his head at her, "Come on, you can't be that dumb."
Her eyes narrowed at that, reaching for the S.O.R. and setting it to level one. Without hesitation she pressed on the remote, making Sora jump out of his seat with a yell.
"What the hell was that?" he exclaimed.
Kairi closed her eyes and shrugged. "My slave went out of line so he had to be taught a lesson," she explained, "Now, I want you to clean my room and then leave. I'll be gone for about an hour and want to come back here to sleep."
Sora's brows furrowed as he looked around the room. It wasn't really dirty, just a few discarded clothes here and there with a few pieces of papers on the floor next to her bed. It wouldn't take more than a few minutes and yet it was still too early, the sun was just about to set. Was she really going to sleep that early?
He shrugged but nodded to her. "Fine I'll do it but um…" he muttered the last part with a bit of embarrassment, "Do you… do you want me to clean all of your clothes."
"Of course," Kairi responded almost instantly.
A look of concern washed over Sora. "Listen. Really listen here," he began with a light blush on his face as he tried to explain himself, "All of your clothes. Meaning um… you know all of them. Like outer clothes and underwe-"
"You're not touching that!" Kairi exclaimed with a bright blush, finally getting what he was saying. "J-Just wait," she made for the bathroom before closing the door.
Sora could hear movement from behind the door before Kairi came out with a cloth bag. She set it on a corner of the room before pointing at it, her blush still there and only deepening in color.
"That bag…" she began with embarrassment clear on her voice, "D-Don't touch it."
A chuckle left Sora's mouth before nodding, "Got it."
Kairi glared at him before leaving the room, slamming the door shot behind her.
'That stupid pervert!' her blush deepened as she walked to Selphie's.
Of course now she wouldn't be telling her about her knew slave since Selphie had a way to get people to talk. If she knew about the slave then she would dig out her last incident with him and tease her about it once she did.
One thing was for certain though, she would pay him back for embarrassing her.
Ch.6 End
KH: Slave of Love Short
"So, let's go over the rules again."
"Eh… why? You already spent like two hours talking."
Leon ignored Sora's complain, knowing the kid to whine about every single one of his instructions. They had spent the last hour going over the rules of him begin with Kairi and it was starting to get on his nerves.
"Let's just go already, what's the worst that could happen? Things are going to turn out fine," Sora tried to get Leon off his back but his last statement did quite the opposite.
The officer's eyes narrowed while his jaw clenched, giving the famous 'Leon glare.' Sora froze under it and averted his eyes from the intimidating officer.
"And how are you so sure of that?"
Sora smiled nervously as he pumped a fist in the air, "Why, I'll make sure of it. I'm not afraid to look deep within her to make sure she's fine. Just give me about an hour with her and I'll have her smiling!"
Leon's glare only intensified as he closed in on the teen.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU GOING TO DO WITH MY SISTER!"
That day Sora learned an important lesson.
Do NOT, under any circumstances, try to cheer Leon up.
That's it for the chapter. Sorry about the wait but I've been a bit preoccupied. Anyway, thanks for reading.
