I AM SO SORRY! I know I haven't updated in soooo long. I've had a lot of homework. My parents expect me to do extremely well in school. Well, enough of that. I might start another story! I'll continue this one too, so don't think it's going to end like this. ONE THING: I will only post the story if people want me to. You can email me and ask for the first chapter. If you find any spelling mistakes or think it needs something, I'm open to ideas! The story will be dedicated to anyone who reads the first chapter and helps me out. Plus, if I add something of yours, then I will put your penname at the beginning of the story. It also explains it in my profile. I think that's enough of my long authors note.
Disclaimer: I do not own Kingdom Hearts.
Here is chapter 4… (Again, sorry it took so long)
Next Sunday Morning, 11:00 am
"I can't believe we kept this a secret from Riku!" Selphie said, throwing her suitcase in the back of Mrs. Denverse's (A/N: Just in case I didn't put it in earlier, that is Olette's mom)
"Same, but then again, Riku wasn't the brightest light bulb in the bunch." Kairi laughed and put hers in too. Everyone got in the car. Kairi and Selphie's parents waved and drove off.
"Okay guys. When you get there, find a hotel to stay at. Make sure it isn't too expensive, or you won't have enough for everything else, like food and the necessities. Mrs. Denverse warned.
"Don't worry, mom. We will find a hotel and take care of everything. Then we'll find Naminé and tomorrow Kairi competes in the competition." Olette reminded.
"I'm not trying to worry. I just am a little uneasy about leaving 4 girls alone, 3 hours away." Mrs. Denverse sighed.
"It's okay. We'll be fine." Kairi assured her. Mrs. Denverse smiled.
"I'm sure you will." She said and continued down the highway.
3 hours later
"This looks like a nice hotel." Kairi pointed to the 5 story tall building with flowers all around it.
"It's $100 a night!" Olette exclaimed. "Will we have enough?"
"Yes! Remember, we're only staying for 3 nights and there are 4 of us. We each pay for one night and the other person will use the extra $100 as money for food!" Tifa explained.
"That would work." Selphie yelled, bouncing around.
"We can use my money as the food money, then." Tifa said. "Come on. Let's go check in." Everyone quickly followed her. When they walked over to the front desk they noticed no one was there.
"Excuse me? Is anyone here?" Olette asked, looking around. A teenager, about 18 or 19 walked out of the room labeled "managers office".
"Welcome to Sunset View hotel. It's one of the few nice hotels in Twilight Town! Are you looking to check into a room?" Asked the bubbly teen.
"Yes, we are!" Selphie said and excitedly shook her hand. "I'm Selphie by the way!"
"Nice to meet you Selphie! I'm Shianne!" The girl laughed and drew back her hand.
"You'll have to excuse Selphie. She is almost always like that." Kairi said and pushed her out of the way. "So, the rooms are $100 a night. We need 1 room for 3 nights and 4 days."
"Okay, hold on." She typed something into the computer. "Name?"
"Kairi Mitsuki."
"Okay. You're staying for 3 nights and 4 days. Which means Wednesday, you'll be leaving. Correct?"
"Yes." Kairi smiled and took the pass key Shianne had given to her.
"Thanks!" The 4 girls started walking to the elevator.
"Enjoy your stay! She waved and walked back into the manager's room.
"What number are we?" Olette asked.
"529. We need to go to the 5th floor." Kairi said and Selphie hit the 5th floor button. When they reached the top, Selphie grabbed the key from Kairi and ran down the hall, passing many doors and earning many "shhh's" along the way.
"Lighten up, grandpa!" Selphie yelled and stopped at the door that said 529. The man, who was only in his mid thirties, scowled and closed the door.
"This is our room!" She cheerfully said and opened up the door. The room was fairly large. It had two beds and a medium sized TV in the corner.
"Roomy." Tifa inspected it and dropped her bag on one of the beds.
"I want this bed!" Selphie jumped on the bed closest to the window.
"No fair! I wanted that bed! Kairi whined.
"Find your own!" Selphie exclaimed.
"Both of you sleep in it! I'm not listening to your fighting this whole trip." Tifa said and pulled out her cell.
"Fine!" They both huffed and sat down.
"Are you calling Nami?" Olette asked.
"Yeah. We need directions to her house.
Naminé picked up;
"Hello?" She answered.
"Hi! We're here!
"Really? What hotel are you staying at? She asked
"Sunset View."
"Cool! That's really close to where I live!
"Directions please."
"First, when you walk out of the hotel, take a left. You don't have to worry about walking down the road alone. Usually people are out on the streets, shopping. Anyway, walk about half a mile and you should come to a development. The street is called Twilight drive. Take the fist street off of Twilight drive. It's called Galaxy way. My house number is 11 and it's on the left". She said
"Got it, we'll see you in a little bit. Bye!" Tifa snapped her phone shut. "Well, let's go see Naminé." The 3 others followed her out the door.
Naminé's House
Oh my gosh! Her house is bigger then Roxas' house! Tifa gasped. Selphie was admiring their mailbox. It was big, black and had "11" and "Cycles" written in gold cursive letters.
"I love this mailbox! She squealed. Olette looked around the yard.
"Large and very pretty." She whispered. There were flowers planted all around and small little trees planted in the middle of the yard.
"Come on!" Kairi said, pretty much dragging her 3 jealous friends up to the front door. She didn't even have to knock or ring the doorbell because Naminé was right there squishing her friends in a big hug.
"I've missed you so, much!" She cried. "Come in!" She moved aside and let them through.
"Whoa. Nice house." Tifa complimented, looking up at the high ceilings.
"Thanks." Naminé smiled. Just then Mr. and Mrs. Cycles walked in.
"Hello, everyone, I'm so glade you all could come. As soon as she heard you guys were coming to 'save her from her ultimate doom' as she likes to put it, she packed up that night! Mrs. Cycles said.
"Mom!" Naminé hissed and pushed her parents out of the room. "So who wants a tour of the house?" she asked. Kairi, Selphie, Tifa and Olette looked around.
"You realize that if you give me a tour of your house, I'll most likely have to move in with you." Tifa joked.
"Then you can stay here and I'll move back to Destiny Island." Naminé laughed.
"Just kidding!" Tifa quickly said. "So, how about that tour?" She asked.
"Well, the room we're in now is the family room." She went around pointing every room out, while the four others gasped and pointed at everything that was inside a room. The tour ended in the backyard. There was a 10 foot deep pool with a stone walkway surrounding it. There were flowers and trees everywhere.
"Naminé, how could you not want to live here? It's beautiful. Olette whispered.
"I want to, it's just, I want to be with my friends more. It's not easy leaving that many friends behind. Especially if you've been friends with most of them since you were six years old." She sighed.
"I understand what it feels like. It's Loneliness" Tifa mumbled.
"Huh?" The others asked.
"At the orphanage, I had a bunch of friends. When I was adopted, I only met two great ones, who didn't turn out to great. Now I have all of you and I can see why Naminé feels the way she does." Everyone was silent after that. None of them really new what to say. Tifa finally broke the silence.
"Anyone want to go into town?" She asked.
"Sure! I was going to ask that earlier. Naminé said. Mr. Mrs. Cycles walked outside. "Is it okay if I show them around town?" She asked.
"Yes, just be back before midnight." Mrs. Cycles reminded.
"We will. Let's go." She said pulling them around the house.
In Town
"So, do you want to see where the DDR competition will be held?" Naminé asked.
"Sure!" Kairi answered. Naminé led them down a couple of streets and to a fairly large school.
"This is where I would be going to school. Seeing is that its summer vacation here, I haven't started yet. Oh, and the gym is where the competition will be held." She said, pointing to the gym doors. Everyone nodded following her around. "Unfortunately, we can't actually go in yet, but you'll see it tomorrow."
"So, Twilight Town has 6 weeks of summer vacation. Lucky, we only get 3 weeks because its summer all year." Selphie mocked.
"Have you started the 3 weeks yet?" Naminé asked.
"No, we start it tomorrow." Kairi said.
"I'm kind of hungry. Is there any place around here that serves good food? Selphie asked.
"Yep! After, if you want, we can get some sea salt ice cream." Naminé suggested. Tifa, Kairi and Selphie stared at her.
"Sea salt ice cream?" Kairi questioned.
"It's really good! I've had it before." Olette assured them. The others were still unsure, but they kept on walking. Five minutes later, Naminé stopped in front of a small building.
"This is the little hangout people our age come to. It's called Space Café." She explained.
"What, do they serve little pastries and muffins with coffee and tea?" Tifa giggled.
"No! They serve pizza too!" Naminé said, and pushed open the big doors. The place was pretty much empty. "No one really comes here on Sunday nights."
"Do you know anyone?" Olette asked. Namine looked around.
"Well, I know…one."
"Who?" They all asked in unison. Just then a kid popped up behind the counter.
"Hey baby." He said, winking at Naminé. She rolled her eyes.
"Hi, Zidane." She rolled her eyes. "He is my next door neighbor."
"What would you girls like?" He growled.
"For you to go to hell-o, Mr. Mandusha." Naminé smiled. Mr. Mandusha was Zidane's father.
"Hello to you to, Naminé." He waved and started walking back into the back room. He stopped and turned back around to face his son.
"Don't be rude, Zidane. Serve them!" He ordered and continued walking back to his room. Zidane sighed.
"You win this round. Now what would you like off the menu?" He asked.
"A pizza. Half cheese half pepperoni."
"That will be $8.50. Your food will be here in a few minutes." He said and walked to the kitchen. Naminé pulled and 10 dollar bill out.
"He is a bit…weird." Kairi pointed out.
"He has a tail!" Selphie shrieked. Naminé put her finger to her lip.
"Yeah…he is and yes he does." Naminé said. He came back and took the money.
"Your change." He said sweetly and slide a box of pizza toward her, with the money on it. "See you around, babe."
"Don't count on it. I'm moving back home." She hissed and grabbed the pizza.
"Go Naminé!" Selphie whispered and slide into a booth.
"So, how is everyone back home?" Naminé asked, grabbing a slice of pizza.
"Tidus asked me out!" Selphie squealed. Naminé and Kairi's eyes widened.
"Really? Since when?" Kairi demanded.
"Since the other day!" Selphie said. Kairi rolled her eyes.
"You two make a cute couple!" Naminé smiled.
"Sora also asked Kairi out!" Selphie quickly said. By know everyone (except Naminé) knew that Sora and Kairi were going out.
"Hey, I wanted to tell her!" Kairi laughed and shoved Selphie.
"Too slow!" Selphie giggled.
"Another cute couple!" Naminé squealed.
"Ha ha! Poor Pence and Roxas! They can have each other!" Tifa exclaimed. The five burst out laughing. Naminé suddenly stopped.
"How is Riku?" She asked.
"Well, for the first couple of days, he was pretty upset. Now he is okay, but he still really misses you." Kairi said, grabbing another slice.
"So, he isn't going out with anyone?" She asked, nervously.
"Nobody but you" Tifa smiled, causing Naminé to smile.
"He doesn't even know you're coming home." Olette added. In fact, the only one who does know is Sora and he promised he'd keep it a secrete."
"Everyone else thinks we're in Traverse Town." Selphie smirked. Naminé stood up.
"Who wants to try some seat salt ice cream? She asked.
"…"
"It tastes good!" she said, practically dragging them out of the café. When they got to the ice cream vendor, Naminé ordered 5 sea salt ice creams.
"$7.50 please." The lady behind the counter said. Naminé grabbed another 10 dollar bill and handed it to her. Olette grabbed hers and immediately started licking it. Naminé passed out the others. Everyone tried it.
"I like this!" Selphie exclaimed.
"I do too!" The other two agreed.
"I thought you would." Naminé laughed. "Nothing like a little tasty treat before the big day." Selphie walked up to Kairi and put one arm around her. She held her other arm in front of them and said:
"Tomorrow you will be competing in front of hundreds of screaming people, representing Destiny Island! No pressure."
"Selphie stop! You're going to freak her out!" Naminé said hitting her brunette haired friend. Selphie giggled.
"Sorry Kai."
"It's okay. I'm just a little nervous." She replied, finishing the rest of her ice cream.
"Don't worry. You'll do fine." Tifa said.
"I sure hope I will." She gulped. Olette looked at her watch.
"We should be getting back. We still need to unpack and then get a good nights rest." She said, standing up.
"I'll see you guys tomorrow, then. Bye!" She waved and started walking back home.
Monday Afternoon (Naminé's house)
"Here, Kai." Naminé had just finished setting up her DDR pads. She popped the game in.
"Thanks. Who wants to play me?" She asked, looking at all of her excited friends.
"I will!" Tifa yelled and jumped up. Kairi put it on heavy.
"What song?" She asked, scrolling through them all.
"Crazy in Love!" Tifa jumped on the start button and the music started playing. They all took turns until 5:00 pm. Then, everyone got ready and left the house.
School Gym
We have to sit now, so just try your best. Even if you don't win, it's okay, because we got to see Naminé and we get to bring her home." Olette said, hugging Kairi. Everybody else did too and then left to go sit down. A brunette then walked up to her.
"Hey, good luck." She shook Kairi's hand.
"Good luck to you too." Kairi replied.
"I'm Bridget by the way." The girl announced.
"I'm Kairi. I take it you're the person I'm going to be competing against." Bridget nodded. Then they heard there names being called out onto the stage. The two shook hands and stood on their respective mat.
"To make this fair, we will randomly choose a song." One of the judges said, messing around with some buttons. The next thing they knew, they were dancing to Captain Jack on heavy. After the song was done, they fell back onto the bar and panted. They (as well as everyone else in the gym) watched intently as the scores started rolling. "It seems we have a winner!" The judge said. Kairi looked at her score. B. She then looked over at Bridget who got an A.
"Kairi you did great!" Selphie squealed, running over to her. The others did too.
"She's right, Kairi. You did an awesome job." Olette congratulated. Kairi looked over at Bridget, who was being congratulated by her own friends and smiled.
"I know I did." They all pulled her into a group hug and suffocated her. "Ox..y…gen!" She gasped and they let go.
"Sorry." They giggled. Kairi walked over to Bridget.
"Good game. She smiled. Bridget smiled back. With that, Kairi, Naminé, Selphie, Tifa and Olette walked out of the gym and decided to go to the Space Café.
Space Café
"Wow, no one is here." Tifa said, looking at the empty place. "Is Zidane even working tonight?
"He should be." Naminé replied, looking over the counter. Just then Zidane popped up, like he did last time.
"What can I get you ladies?" He yelled. The 5 girls gasped.
"Don't do that!" Naminé hit him.
"Naminé, are you seriously going back to Destiny Island?" He asked. She sat on one of the tables.
"Yep! I'm going to live with Kairi and see all of my friends. I'll even get to see my boyfriend." She emphasized boyfriend. Zidane just shook his head. "Don't shake your head at me! She fumed.
"Zidane! Can we get a pizza?" Olette asked.
"Sure." He said, walking to the kitchen.
"The usual!" Naminé yelled. Fifteen minutes later, he plopped the box of pizza down on the table.
"It's on the house. Just don't tell my father. He whispered, and walked back to clean off an already clean table.
"Thanks." Each said and grabbed a slice.
"Zidane, do you want any?" Kairi asked.
"No thanks. This place is a mess and I need to clean it before the end of the night. The girls looked around.
"I don't think it can get any cleaner then this." Olette said. Zidane sighed and walked over to get a slice of pizza.
"I might as well." He shrugged and picked one up.
Tuesday
Knock, Knock.
Olette rolled over and repeatedly hit Tifa.
"Go answer it." She literally pushed her off the bed. Tifa rubbed her head.
"Olette!" She growled and sat back down. "You go answer it!"
"I don't want to answer the door!" Olette whined and pulled the covers back over her head.
"Someone answer the door!" Naminé hissed through it.
"Naminé." Tifa and Olette gasped. The Olette ran to the door and opened it up. Naminé stood there with her hands on her hips.
"Olette, you never were a morning person." She said and walked in. "Neither of them are awake I see." She looked over at Kairi and Selphie who were still sound asleep.
"I say, we have some fun." Tifa smirked walking over to their bed. "Kairi, its Sora." She whispered.
"Sora." She mumbled and rolled over to face Selphie.
"Tidus." Selphie mumbled and scooted closer to Kairi.
"I love you Kairi." Tifa whispered.
"I love you too, Sora." Kairi mumbled again and got even closer to Selphie. The 3 had to hold back their laughter.
"Okay, time to wake you up." Olette smirked. "One…two…three!"
"SELPHIE!" They screamed. Selphie shot up. The commotion woke Kairi up too.
"What is going on?" Kairi asked, very irritated.
"Nothing now let's us discuss what we are going to do today." Tifa said.
Well, that was chapter four. Two of my friends wanted to be in this story, so that's were Shianne, the hotel lady and Bridget, the girl who played against Kairi came in. Don't forget to email me and ask for chapter 1 of my new story. I was again, in a rush to write this chapter, so please don't yell at me if you see a lot of spelling mistakes. Please review and once again, I am really sorry about not updating.
