A/N: Wow I'm working on three fan-fictions at once. No rest for Aerith! But yesterday I was worn out I felt to fatigued I could pass for Kairi. Except I was happy, but I think my extreme happiness is what was wearing me out. Lol. Well here's the next chapter let's just hope I don't go on a happy spree everyone knows happy sprees are scary. Okay Sora take it away with the disclaimer!

Sora: Oh boy I get to do it again! Well anyway Flowerlady-Aerith does not own Kingdom Hearts all she owns is her computer and the plot of this story. She is simply creating a fake story that is call fan-fiction. Fiction made by the fans…the fans made fiction…

Me: Okay Sora you can be quiet now…

Sora: Oh okay!


Is This Just Another Lie

- Are You…? -

Kairi nodded. She knew he was being sarcastic about what to call him; he was doing the same thing she had done to him yesterday. She rolled her amethyst eyes. "Okay Mr. Zizurri," she replied sarcastically.

Sora laughed. "So Ms. Shitoko I would like you to meet my friends…so do you think you could possibly bring your roommate and have dinner with us?" Sora asked with one of his famous grins. Kairi felt herself melting.

"I-I don't k-know…I-I mean w-w-we did just m-meet," she stuttered. 'That's the exact same way he used to grin, I don't think I want to go,' Kairi thought staring at Sora with frightened eyes. Sora tilted his head wondering why Ms. Shitoko was acting so nervous all of a sudden, almost as if she were a different person.

He scratched his head. "Well maybe another time then?"

No Kairi say a flat-out no. You shouldn't be hanging out with this guy if he makes you feel so nervous. B-Because you should feel comfortable wherever you go…yeah that's it.

Kairi shook her head. "No, that's all right," Kairi replied as she stared at her feet. "If you excuse me I have some papers to copy." Sora watched as Kairi lifted the stack from her desk and quickly retreated to the copy machine.

"Okay then…sorry for asking," Sora muttered standing up and turning around. He heard an 'eep' and a loud thud. He looked down and saw a brunette woman staring up at him. "I'm sorry," he replied reaching out to help her up.

She shook her head and got up on her own. "You know you resemble someone I used to know…any chance you know a Sora Zizurri?" she asked with a smile.

Sora blinked. "How do you know my name?" he asked raising an eyebrow.

"It's me! Selphie Tillmit!" the woman squealed and pulled Sora into a bone-breaking hug. "Oh my gosh I can't believe you're here! This is great! Where do you live I've got to bring Kairi so we can visit you!"

A grin appeared on Sora's face. "No way! Kairi's here's too! That means almost everyone one is here with the exception of Dagger and Vivi! That's so strange that we all moved to Colorado but it's great! Here let me write down my address," Sora said grabbing a piece of paper and a pen from his pocket. He sloppily wrote down his address and handed the paper to Selphie.

"Thanks if I can I'll bring Kairi over today, you don't know how much she's been missing you…by the way why the heck didn't you return her e-mails!" Selphie exclaimed narrowing her emerald eyes.

"What e-mails I didn't get any from her," Sora replied rubbing the back of his neck.

"Well why didn't you e-mail her?"

"…My sister through her e-mail address into our fireplace burning it into oblivion."

"Oh…but you know Kairi hasn't been doing so well lately."

"What do you mean? Is she hurt?" he asked alarmed.

"Yeah, she hasn't been the same since that day you two split up. She's got this voice talking to her and she's easily tired and sometimes faints! I'm worried about her health especially when she's up here all alone doing work," Selphie replied tapping her chin.

Sora's cerulean eyes widened hearing what Selphie said last. "She works here!" he exclaimed. Selphie nodded. "W-Where's her desk?"

"Oh I forgot but…I guess I'll see you after work!" Sora nodded and the two brunettes went their separate ways.


"Dagger are you home!" Vivi shouted walking into the apartment the three had rented yesterday. He looked around searching for Dagger; he knew Zidane wouldn't be home because Zidane wouldn't be home till ten at night.

"I'm in here Vivi!"

Vivi entered one of the bedrooms to see Dagger hooking up the laptop with the power cord. "Oh I just wanted to let you know I was home for the day," Vivi replied turning around so he could go to his room.

"Okay thanks," Dagger replied with a smile. She rubbed her hands together and plopped down on her bed. She sat her laptop in her lap and opened Microsoft Word. She would finally be able to work on her novel.

This time she was making a romance story about separated lovers who were reunited only to realize their deep hate for each other. As the story progressed she decided she would give it a good, romantic ending. The two lovers names were Raymundo and Tsuki. Dagger planned for this book to be her big break, so did her publisher. If she didn't write a best seller soon her publisher would dump her for some other author.


Zidane had his feet on his desk and he continually pushed the skip button. When he picked the life of a masonry worker he didn't think he would have to go through a virtual tutorial. He was so bored, the only highlight of his day would be when the architects would arrive to discuss how much material they would need this year.

"They're here! Zidane you talk to them!"

The blonde nodded and casually walked over to where three nicely dressed men were standing. One was blonde with blue eyes, he was wearing a black business suit without a tie, one had orange hair and brown eyes, he was wearing a jade green business suit with a checkered tie, and the last one was a redhead with greenish-bluish eyes, he was wearing a brown business suit with a gray tie.

"Hello I'm Zidane," he said shaking each of their hands. "You guys are the architects right?"

"Yeah, I'm Tidus…and this is Wakka and Axel," Tidus said matching the names with the faces. "So you're the one we'll be talking to today?" Zidane nodded and led the men to an office room down the hallway. The four took their seats and began to discuss the material needed and what not.


Yuna, Rikku, and Paine sat in their detective office. Rikku was blowing bubbles, Paine was tapping her fingers on her desk while glaring at Rikku, and Yuna was reading a random magazine.

"Yunie I'm bored! I want a case don't you?" Rikku whined ceasing her bubble blowing. "Aren't we supposed to be discovering clues and closing cases with our great detective skills?"

"Well it's only our first week Rikku they wouldn't give a great case to new comers like us," Yuna replied. "Just be patient Rikku I'm sure we'll get something." The blonde woman nodded.

"Yuna, Rikku, Paine come outside!"

The three women looked at each other and shrugged. They exited their office to see their boss staring back at them. "I've got a case for you three, this is your chance to prove yourselves. Okay listen carefully. A couple of years ago a man named Cid Highwind broke loose from the FBI's hold and now they believe they finally have a lead on him. I'm telling you three to meet with the FBI agent and help them solve the case all right?"

Rikku nodded excitedly. "We'll do our best!" she squealed pulling her boss into a tight hug. "We won't let you down!"

Paine rolled her eyes. "You might kill our boss if you keep hugging her like that," Paine stated trying to pry Rikku away from their boss. Riku let go and nodded.

"You three are dismissed for the day," their boss said before leaving to go back to her office.

Two weeks later -

"I can't believe everyone is here in Colorado," Dagger said staring at their guests Tidus, Axel, and Wakka. "It'll be great to see everyone after all these years."

"Well not everyone, it looks like Selphie and Kairi didn't move here," Axel explained staring at the food that Dagger had cooked. "It's too good to be true anyway, but at least most of us are here."

Vivi nodded. "Maybe we can e-mail those two and they could come and visit us one day," Vivi suggested before eating some of his broccoli. "Then we could all hang out like we used too.

Dagger nodded. "In fact I'll e-mail them tonight and see what they say about it, let's just hope they're still together in the same state."

"So you're a writer now Dagger?" Wakka asked cutting off a piece of his steak. Dagger nodded. "That's great so have you published any books? I would love to read them."

"Yes in fact I wrote one called 'Sanity Switch' it isn't a best seller though. It was the first book I ever wrote so I can't really expect much, I could lend you a copy if you want," Dagger said.

"That'd be great!" Wakka replied.

Zidane rolled his eyes. He couldn't tell if Wakka was being a good friend or making a move on his Dagger. There was no way he could loose to a guy who's hair stuck up like the top of an ice cream cone, was there? Wasn't he much better than Wakka? Sure he had a tail but did that really matter?

"Hey Zidane what's wrong?" Axel asked waving his hand in front of Zidane's face breaking his concentration.

Zidane shook his head. "It's nothing I was just thinking about work," Zidane lied reverting his attention to the untouched food on his plate.

"Is work really bothering you that much, you haven't eaten anything. And you usually love my cooking," Dagger replied her eyes showing her deep concern. Zidane took a bite out of his steak and gave Dagger a thumbs-up. Dagger smiled and continued her conversation with Wakka.

She was sure something else was bothering him. Could he possibly be in love with a girl he met at work? Did you loose her chances to ever win his heart? He usually acted strange whenever he met a girl that he admired, so that must be it. Dagger's heart dropped, had she really lost Zidane forever?


"Riku I'm serious!" Sora exclaimed frowning at his best friend. "She reminds me of Kairi, except with the depressed look she always has. If it wasn't for that she could be her twin!"

Riku shook his head. "Okay, if you bring me a picture of her maybe I'll believe you," Riku said. "But only if I can see a picture, then we can compare it with your other picture of Kairi and see if she really might be Kairi."

Sora looked down. "She just has to be. I mean Selphie did say she worked there…and she's the only girl in the building with auburn hair, I guess I'm just too afraid of offending her."

"I'm sure she wouldn't mind if you took her picture," Riku replied. "Now if you excuse me I have some business to attend too."

The brunette man smirked. "Whatever you have another one of those nights planned with Yuffie don't you?" he asked slyly.

"Maybe."

Riku walked down the hallway and entered his room. Yuffie was already sitting on their bed reading a book called 'Sanity Switch' she'd been reading it because she knew Dagger wrote it. She was already halfway through and she bought it yesterday. Riku sat down next to Yuffie and started reading the book with her.

"Hi Riku," Yuffie said not taking her indigo eyes off of the words.

Riku kissed her cheek. "So is that what you're going to do all night?" he asked. Yuffie nodded turning the page. Riku pouted and snatched the book away from Yuffie.

"Hey!" she exclaimed reaching over him to grab it back. "I want to finish reading Dagger's novel so give it back Riku!"

"You have to earn it first," Riku said with a smirk. He pulled Yuffie close to him. "You want to know how you have to earn it?"

"Sure," Yuffie replied with a sly look. Riku pulled Yuffie into a kiss setting her book down on the other side of their bed. Yuffie opened her eyes and reached for the book as she kissed him. She grabbed it and rolled off of Riku. "Thanks!"

"You're no fun," Riku pouted crossing his arms. Yuffie stuck out her tongue and continued to read. "Party pooper."


Tifa had all the lights cut out in her room. She was leaning out the window and staring up at the sky. "So Zack how is it up there?" she asked staring at the stars. "It must be better than it is here huh? I'm happy that everyone has been reunited…but I really miss you. I know I was not exactly nice when I met you but I've changed."

The brunette woman took and deep breath and looked away from the sky. "Couldn't we be reunited as well?" She wasn't aware that Yuna was staring into her room. She smiled feeling compassion for her friend. She knew what it was like to be lonely without anyone to love.

She walked away from the door and down the hallway to her room. She laid down on her bed and closed her eyes. "Maybe there is someone out there for me? Or maybe not," she mumbled before falling asleep.


A/N: This chapter was short. I'm just getting really hungry so I'm going to stop and eat a sandwich or something. Thanks for reading! I had to rewrite this chapter because I was about to do a dramatic scene with a certain two people, but I decided that would be too fast so I did something else!
