Chapter 1
Newfound Friends
"Guys come-on it was just a joke." Mian said. He slowly backed away hoping to find some kind of an opening. "That wasn't a joke Mian," Kairi snapped "You could have made us stop being friends"! "What do you think I was trying to do?" Mian thought to himself. "Alright guys I'm sorry ok, now let's just go back to building the raft and forget this ever happened".
Sora, Riku, and Kairi just glared at him. "You can help build the raft, but YOUR NOT COMING with us." Riku said. "Yeah," Sora added "If you're going to pull jokes like that than you're not coming".
Mian couldn't believe it, he was getting kick out of the single most exciting thing that would probable ever happen on their world, by his best friends. "Guys come-on I practically came up with the idea and built most of-". "Sorry Mian but you're not coming." Kairi said. Sora, Riku, and Kairi walked off discussing what other supplies they would need for the trip. Mian kicked the sand then stomped back to his boat. He started to row his boat back to the other island where everyone lived. Mian was so angry at them; he hated them so much right now.
He thought better of an evil thought he just had and sighed "Well I guess this is what I get for that prank I pulled on them". Mian thought to himself, but he still didn't feel that way. About three days ago he devised a prank for Sora, Riku, and Kairi. He got Sora and Kairi to believe that they really wanted to show that they liked each other. Mian secretly got them to meet each other, and then they both found out that they hadn't asked each other to meet got them really embarrassed, and finally framing Riku for it all. All this got them extremely mad at each other and they wouldn't talk to each other for three days. It worked out perfectly, until they had somehow found out that Mian had set them up for this. He was still wondering how they figured it out that it was him.
Mian reached shore and tied his boat to the dock and headed home. Mian didn't know why he considered Sora, and Riku his friends when they hardly got along. True he and Riku were getting along better than they used to but Mian and Sora pretty much hated each others guts. Almost since the day they met they had been fighting over something. There were times when he and Sora did get along but there weren't that many. Strange that Mian considered Sora his best friend even though they didn't get along that well another mystery of life. In fact they were almost complete opposites of each other. Sora usually wore white and red shirts and shorts whereas Mian wore black and gray shirts and shorts. The only feature about them that was the same was they had the same colored hair and it was in someway or another spiked. Sora had short brown hair that was spiked everywhere and Mian had brown hair that spiked upward. The only reason the two even tried to be friends was because of a promise they had made when they were seven years old. It was that 'No matter what we say or what we do, we'll always be friends and never forget about each other'. To remind them of this promise was Sora gave Mian a pant chain that was decorated with silver crowns. Sora wore one on his left pant leg and Mian wore one on his right pant leg.
Sora, Mian, and Riku big arguments started around when they were eleven and when Riku was twelve. Around this time they really really started to like Kairi and so they would compete for her attention. Mian was the only one who Kairi knew really liked her. She knew this because when they were eleven (hint hint) he had asked her to be his girlfriend. She accepted and they went out for a few months. He had promised to do anything to make her happy. Well she wasn't happy when she saw Sora, Mian, and Riku fighting even more than they used to. So she decided to breakup with Mian to see if they would stop fighting. Mian wanting to please her, so he reluctantly agreed but asked that when times changed if they could get back together again.
Mian was still waiting for the right time to bring this back up. The only reason he pulled this prank was because he saw Sora, and Kairi getting closer and closer. This was supposed to get rid of any potential competition. This was supposed to help in his chances to get her back but instead made it harder on him. Mian walked back to his house and went up to his room. He laid down on his bed and looked at his necklace. It was a silver crown with a jagged heart in the middle. His step-parents told him that he had been given that by his real parents before they had left him here on Destiny Islands. Mian sighed. He always asked himself this question 'why did they leave me here, didn't they want me?'. He tossed the thought aside knowing it would only depress him more than he already was. He laid on his bed thinking of a way to go on that trip.
