Author's Note:
AH! I'm so sorry for not updating sooner! I had a ton of projects due this week and then I got sick.
Riku: Well, you wouldn't have had SO much work to do if you didn't procrastinate and start them on the night before they were due.
Me: ...
Riku: Will you ever learn?
Me: Shut up!
Well, here we are at the REAL beginning to the story (or something like that). I don't really have much to say, except Happy Easter/ Spring and please leave some reviews! And now…ON WARD WITH TEH CHAPTER!
"SORA!" Someone was shaking him, "Sora wake up, your having a bad dream"
The brunette sat up abruptly, sheets tangled around him, struggling to focus his eyes in the morning light coming through his window. Once his eyes had focused, he looked wildly around the room. There was someone sitting on his bed.
"Riku?"
"No…it's me, Kairi."
"Oh" he said quietly, turning his head to look out the window so she wouldn't see the disappointment in his face.
"You had that dream again, didn't you?" she quietly asked him.
He nodded his head, still looking out the window so she wouldn't see his tears. He felt the bed move as she shifted her weight to hug him. After a few minutes, He heard her get up and walk to the door.
"I'm so sorry Sora" he heard her quietly say before shutting the door behind her.
After Kairi had left, Sora allowed the tears he had been holding back to start flowing freely down his cheeks. He felt so rotten, putting Kairi in this situation. It hadn't been her fault that he was forced to choose between her and Riku. He knew that she blamed herself for everything that had happened in the past few months, the move to Twilight Town, the memory of that night constantly haunting him. The memory started to replay its self in his head, the dark room, the hooded figures, Riku's shocking blue eyes…
He shook his head to try and rid himself of the images that flooded into his head.
But the move had been entirely his idea; he just couldn't stand to live in a place filled with so many painful memories. The dock, their raft, the tree where Riku always went to think; it had been slowly eating him up. He had to find a new place to start over, a place where he could work up the courage he needed to face Riku again, not to mention gather as much information about Organization XIII as he could.
"Sora!"
As he lifted his head and saw a small rock hit his window. Wiping his tears, he got out of bed and shuffled over to the window. As he opened the window another rock came soaring in and hit him in the head.
"Hey, that hurt!" he yelled down to the group of boys standing on the street below.
"Sheesh," yelled Hayner, "no need to get angry, we didn't think you'd come to the window that fast!"
"Come on Sora! How can you still be in bed at this hour?" yelled a blond boy, who resembled Sora.
"Yeah Sora! Hurry up, we'll miss the train to the beach!" yelled the brown haired boy named Pence.
"Ok, ok!" Sora yelled down to his friends, "I'll be down in a few minutes."
Closing the window, he quickly pulled on a T-shirt over his bare chest and tried to smooth the wrinkles, which were the outcome of his fight with his sheets, out of his shorts. He quickly brushed a hand through his hair, trying to tidy up the natural spikes in his hair. By the time he made it down stairs, Kairi had let Hayner in.
"Geez, it took you long enough!" Hayner complained as Sora jogged into the kitchen.
"Well, I'm sorry I care about how I look," Sora shot back. "Where did Roxas and Pence go?"
"They went down to the station to buy us tickets," Hayner replied while searching the kitchen for something to eat.
Soar sat down in one of the chairs and finished putting on his shoes.
"Ok, I'm all set" Sora said, standing up and grabbing the apple that Hayner was just about to eat.
Hayner glared at him, as he grabbed another apple from the counter.
"Well, now that 'Miss' Sora is FINALY ready, could we please hurry up and go down to the station?" Hayner whined, "I said that we would meet Olette there 15 minutes ago!"
"Ok, ok," Sora said as he stood up, he looked over at his sister who seemed to be in her own world.
"Are you ready Kairi?" he asked timidly.
"Huh? Oh, yeah, lets go" she said with less liveliness then she usually had.
Sora looked at his sister sadly, he knew that her bad mood was his fault. He was about to say something to comfort her, when Hayner pulled him into a headlock.
"What have you done to upset her this time?" He asked with mock-anger, "Kairi, what can I do to make up for your brother's useless mistake? Maybe, oh, I don't know, me and you, dinner in the shopping district?"
"Hey! Stop hitting on my sister!" Sora yelled; trying to break free of the headlock that Hayner still had him in.
"Hmm…" Kairi said, playing along with Hayner. "How about dinner and a moonlit walk on Sunset Hill? Just the two of us."
"Kairi! Stop hitting on my friends!" Sora whined, still struggling to get free.
"So it's a date?" Hayner asked hopefully.
"Maybe in your dreams," Kairi said ruffling Hayner's hair as she walked by him and out of the kitchen.
Sora smirked as Hayner stood in shock at what had just happened.
"Hey, what are you smirking about!" He asked in a playful tone as Sora finally wriggled free of the headlock.
"Oh, just the fact that you've been trying to get a date with my sister for the last three months and you get shut down every time," Sora said, smiling.
"You better take that back!" Hayner yelled as he playfully started rough housing with Sora.
"Are you guys coming, or not?" They heard Kairi call from the hall, "The trains really going to leave with out us if you don't hurry up!"
The two boys glanced at each other and then started sprinting for the door.
"Last one there buys the Sea Salt ice cream!" Hayner yelled as he and Sora took off down the street with Kairi in tow towards the shopping district.
As they disappeared, a dark portal appeared in the street. A dark hooded figure stepped out and followed them towards the shopping district.
Babbling:
OOOOH, yay! The re appearence of Organization XIII! I just had to add the line about sea salt ice cream, seeing as they are ALWAYS eating it in the 3 hour tutorial. HOO man, I finally beat Kingdom Hearts 2 it last night, it was amazing (although I think it would have been more amazing if I wasn't partially delerious from fever). I would start ranting about it, but I don't wanna spoil anything. Its just godly, and Riku is amazingly sexy and theres an incredably cute cut scene with Axel near the end. It made me cry, and I still was 3 hours away from beating it.
So yeah, I'll update again when I'm feeling better and not feverish (although it might be interesting to see where the plot would go). I totally have a plot all thought out now though, its going to be amazing. Please leave reviews!
Till next time!
Hayner
