WOW! Hey guys sorry it's taken me soooooooooo long to update anything! I've been on a sort of camp thing for the last two months with my school so I couldnt really do any writing. Plus I had to give my laptop back to the school so I nearly lost a lot of my files. Anyway, this chapter took me quite a while because I wasn't sure which characters to include or not. We also get to find out a little bit about why Kairi moved back to Destiny Islands. Hope you like it and please Read&Review!
Destiny Island High:
After what felt like an eternity of happiness Kairi let go of Sora and smiled. He smiled back at her.
"I still can't believe it." He said. "Are you sure this isn't a dream."
"I guess there's one way to know for sure." Kairi pinched Sora on the arm.
"Ouch! What was that for?" Sora demanded.
"See, that proves it's not a dream." Kairi told him.
Sora rubbed his arm and laughed. "You always used to do that."
Kairi giggled and looked round she hadn't noticed all the people staring at her. She'd completely forgotten she'd just screamed and hugged Sora in front of her entire year level.
"Great, it's my first day and already I'm considered a freak." Kairi said angrily.
"Don't worry, if your friends with Sora you'll never be considered a freak."
Kairi looked up and saw the same white blond haired girl she'd asked directions from earlier.
"Why?"
"Because he's the school soccer team's star player, and he's one of the most popular guys in school." The girl told her.
"Really?" Kairi asked Sora.
"I wouldn't say most popular." Sora rambled.
The blond haired girl rolled her eyes. "I'm Naminé by the way." Naminé introduced herself.
"I'm Kairi." Said Kairi. She and Naminé looked at one another in amazement, they looked extremely alike. Or maybe they were imagining things.
"It's nice to finally meet you." Said Naminé smiling widely. "Sora's told me a lot about you."
Kairi looked up at Sora and saw him blush slightly. "Ah…well, now you two know each other let's get to homeroom." Sora said quickly.
"Hey! What about me?"
"Oh, sorry Roxas," Kairi said turning to Roxas. "Sora, Naminé, this is my cousin Roxas."
"Hi." Said Roxas.
"Nice to meet you." Said Sora.
Sora and Roxas looked at one another in alarm, they looked so alike, almost like looking into a mirror. It was sort of creepy. Roxas looked away from Sora and smiled at Naminé, she was the prettiest girl he'd ever seen.
"Hi." He said simply.
"Hi." Naminé replied. Sora hadn't heard her voice like this before; it was so quiet and far away.
"So, should we go to homeroom?" Kairi asked.
"Good idea." Said Naminé.
The four quickly hurried into the classroom.
"Please class, quieten down!" Their teacher called over the loud talk issuing from the class. Sora and Naminé took their usual seats, Kairi decided to sit next to Sora and Roxas sat next to Kairi.
"A bit of quiet please." The teacher called again and the class fell silent.
"What's his name?" Kairi asked Sora quietly looking up at the tall, dark haired teacher.
"He's Mr. Leonhart, but we just call him Leon. He's a great English teacher." Sora told her.
"Now," Leon said now he finally had the class's attention. "I know school is starting latter then usual because of the Soccer final, which I am pleased to say, we won," Cheers erupted from the class and a few people thumped Sora on the back. "But that doesn't mean the rest of today is going to be a free day." Leon warned. "I'll give you some advice though, if you've got Vexen in third period science today he'll be teaching chemical structures, he'll be talking so much that he won't even notice if you fall asleep."
The class laughed.
"Great, I've got him fifth." Kairi heard Sora mumble.
"Moving on I believe we have two new student's joining us." Leon picked up the new class list. "Let me see…oh yes, Kairi and Roxas Utada, could you come up the front please and tell us a bit about yourselves."
Kairi and Roxas looked at on another then quietly walked up the front of the classroom.
"Um…hi," Kairi started. "I'm Kairi and this is my cousin Roxas. We just moved here from Twilight Town."
"What's Twilight Town like?" Leon asked Roxas.
"It's…well…it's nothing like Destiny Islands, there are a lot more buildings, oh and they have the best ice cream in Twilight town its called Sea-Salt Ice Cream."
"Eww, salt ice cream?" one of the girls up the back snickered. "Who'd want to live in a place like Twilight Town anyway?"
"I think Sea-Salt Ice Cream sound delicious." Naminé said loudly.
"And I'd really like to visit Twilight Town one day." Sora added.
The girl shut up straight away, Kairi mouthed 'Thankyou' to Sora and Naminé, and they both smiled.
"We're glad to have you here." Said Leon. "Now who'd like to show Kairi around the school for today?" Sora put his hand up immediately. "Well Mr. Hikaru, I've never seen you this enthusiastic."
"Well Leon, maybe it's about time I started to do something useful around here." Said Sora.
"Ok Kairi, Sora will show you around the school for today. Do you two know one another?" Leon asked.
"Yeah we do, me and Kairi go way back." Sora told him.
"Now who'd like to show Roxas around – thankyou Naminé."
Naminé's hand had flown straight up into the air the moment Leon spoke Roxas's name.
"Now we've gotten that sorted out I hope you enjoy the rest of your day." Leon told the class as they slowly got to their feet.
"So what do you have now?" Sora asked Kairi.
"Maths, you?"
"Same. Who's your teacher?"
"Mr. Luxord." Kairi told him.
"Looks like we're in the same class." Said Sora.
"Great." Kairi smiled. "So when are you going to show me around the school?"
"Lunch I think, and there are going to quite a few people who are going to want to see you." Sora told her.
"Like who?" Kairi asked.
"You'll see." Sora didn't say anymore.
Kairi and Sora said goodbye to Roxas and Naminé and headed to maths. Kairi was so happy that she'd found Sora and he hadn't forgotten her. The only thing that worried her now was who exactly wanted to see her.
Lunch came quickly, Sora and Naminé met Kairi and Roxas at their lockers and the four walked to the cafeteria. By now they were all very hungry and couldn't wait to get some food.
"So how were your classes?" Roxas asked Kairi, they hadn't had a class together yet.
"Good so far." Kairi replied.
"Sora!" Someone called out from behind them.
Naminé looked over her shoulder and smiled. "Hey Roxas, how about you and I go save some seats? Sora and Kairi might be here a while."
"Huh?" Apparently Roxas hadn't heard her. "I can't hear well when I haven't eaten."
"Come on." Naminé said pulling Roxas towards the Cafeteria.
"Sora, wait up!" A silver haired young man called over the crowd.
"Who's that?" Kairi asked.
"You'll see." Sora replied.
"God," The boy said when he'd caught up with them. "That crowd's almost impossible to get through."
"Riku?" Kairi asked quietly.
"That's my name don't wear-" he stopped mid sentences as his eyes fell on Kairi. "Kairi…is that you?"
"Glad to see you remember me." Kairi beamed.
"Kind of hard to forget a best friend." Riku laughed and hugged her.
Sora joined the hug and they all laughed. It was just like old times when the three of them had played together out on the Island. Back then it seamed like nothing else mattered as long as they had each other. How Kairi had missed them and this feeling.
"It's strange," Riku said when the three let go of one another. "Sora and I were talking about you this morning, and now here you are."
"Maybe I came back for a reason." Said Kairi.
"Yeah, maybe you did." Sora murmured.
Kairi and Sora both trailed off into their own thoughts, after a few moments Riku decided to bring them back to Earth. Before Kairi had left the islands she and Sora always had a habit of zoning out at the same time, apparently things hadn't changed.
"Ok, if you two are done trying to figure out the meaning of life I say we get some lunch." Riku said loudly breaking them from their thoughts.
"Oh right." Sora and Kairi said at the same time.
"Jinx!" Kairi giggled. "Say a word and I get to punish you!"
Sora crossed his arms angrily.
"Sora, you're not going to go along with that are you?"
Sora looked at Kairi, he remember her punches being quite painful. He nodded quickly.
"Ok whatever; let's get to the Caff before all the tables are gone." Riku suggested and they headed toward the slowly filling Cafeteria.
"Sora, Kairi, Riku, over here!" Naminé called over the loud conversations going on in the cafeteria.
"Hey Naminé, who's your friend?" Riku asked as they sat down at the table.
"This is my cousin, Roxas." Kairi told him. "Roxas, this is Riku."
"Nice to meet you." Roxas said shaking Riku's hand.
"Wow, you and Sora look alike!" Riku exclaimed looking from Roxas to Sora.
"We've noticed." Said Roxas.
"Who looks like Sora?"
They all looked up and saw a girl with brown hair that flicked at the end, green eyes and a large smile standing behind Riku.
"Hi Selphie," Naminé greeted her. Kairi looked at the girl in slight shock and absolute happiness, how come she hadn't recognised her before?
"Is there room for me?" Selphie asked.
Sora moved slightly so there was enough room for Selphie. The problem was he was now a lot closer to Kairi, he tried his best not to think about it.
"Thanks Sora." Selphie said sitting down. "So who looks like you?"
Sora pointed to Roxas, Selphie let out a squeal of amazement as she looked at both of them. Kairi couldn't help smiling; Selphie was still the same hyper girl she'd been all those years ago.
"Sora, why aren't you saying anything?" Naminé asked.
He pointed to Kairi and crossed his arms angrily again.
"She jinxed him." Riku told her. "And I have no idea why he's going along with it."
"Believe me Riku, Kairi's punches hurt." Said Roxas. "She jinxed me once when we were eight, I spoke and had a bruise on my arm for weeks!"
"Kairi?" Selphie said quietly, she looked past Sora, her eyes widened as they fell on Kairi. "OH MY GOD! Kairi it's you! You're really here!"
"Hey Selphie!" Kairi smiled widely.
Selphie leaned over Sora to hug Kairi. The two friends were laughing so loudly that almost everyone in the cafeteria had turned round to find the source of the commotion. Sora felt a little uncomfortable with Selphie practically lying on him to reach Kairi. He poked her hard in the back and she let out a yelp.
"Hey! What was that for…oh…sorry Sora." Selphie said letting go of Kairi and sitting up.
Kairi giggled, Selphie defiantly hadn't changed one bit.
"So Kairi, where have you been all this time?" Selphie asked.
"Twilight Town." Kairi answered. "It's really nice there…but no where near as great as Destiny Islands."
"I'm guessing you and your parents moved back then?" Riku asked.
"Um…no." Kairi replied, everyone except Roxas looked at Kairi slightly confused. "Well, when I heard Roxas and his parent's were moving to Destiny Islands I begged my parent's to let me go too. My parents and Roxas's parents eventually agreed as long as I go back to Twilight Town every few months to visit." Kairi explained.
"It's just a good thing my family can put up with you, Kairi." Said Roxas and everyone laughed.
It took Kairi a few moments to realise Sora was glaring at her. "Ok fine." She sighed. "Sora, Sora, Sora."
"Thankyou!" Sora half yelled.
Riku snickered slightly. "You're such a looser Sora."
"Shut up!"
"Just like old times, huh?" Said Kairi, she smiled remembering how Sora and Riku used to bicker over the smallest of things.
"Some things never change." Riku replied.
"Yeah, he's still a total jerk." Sora whispered to Kairi.
"Hey, I heard that!"
School finally ended and the students were free to go. Kairi placed a few books in her bag and closed her locker, she noticed Roxas just stuffing books into his bag without a care.
"And you wonder why your books get ruined." Kairi laughed.
Roxas looked down at his bag and shrugged. "Do I look like I care?"
Kairi smiled and picked up her bag. "Come on, let's go home."
Kairi and Roxas had made it to the school gate when they heard someone calling after them.
"Kairi! Roxas!"
They turned round and saw Sora running to catch up with them.
"Hey Sora, what's up?" Kairi asked.
"I bunch of us are going down to the beach, and we were wondering if you guys wanted to come?" Sora asked.
"Oh, we'd love to but we've got a whole heap of boxes to unpack." Kairi told him.
"Oh." Sora said rather downhearted.
"Maybe we could do something tomorrow." Roxas suggested. "It'd be great to see some more of this place."
"Ok, the others and I will give you a guided tour of Destiny Islands." Sora said brightly.
"Great, what do you think Kairi?" Roxas asked his cousin.
"Sounds good." Kairi agreed.
"Sora, come on!" Someone yelled.
"I better go, see you guys tomorrow!" Sora shouted running of to join some of his friends.
Roxas turned to Kairi with an odd expression on his face.
"What?" Kairi asked.
"Nothing." Roxas sighed. "Come on, let's go."
