Strangers Like Me

"Damn it where could that girl be."

Riku was pondering this in his room back at the castle. He notice that Kairi didn't come back last night and he knows that the King will surely kill him for losing her.

"Well at least he doesn't really know about this yet," Riku thought.

And just as Riku was sure the King didn't know he heard a big roar. Just then a knight came in.

"What is it," Riku snapped.

The knight was low ranked and he was scared to death by being around the vicious high ranked cat.

"T-the K-king-g wishes t-to see-e you," the knight managed to stutter out.

Riku by now was sick to his stomach. He could only imagine what the King had in store for his punishment.

"Fine" was all Riku had to say and the silver cat followed the other cat to the King's corridors.

KNOCK! KNOCK!

"Yes yes Riku please come in."

Riku took one big gulp and then entered in the King's room. No one really was allowed in here except on big emergencies which I guess you can count this as one.

"You wished to see me My Lord," said Riku trying not to sound scared.

"Please sit Riku" and with that Riku sat down.

The King was walking around the room looking angry but at the same time he looked calmed.

"I thought you were to take care of my daughter," the King said looking out the window.

"I was, but she ran off," Riku said.

"RAN OFF," the King roared.

The King by now was getting very upset with Riku since he thought he wasn't doing his job properly.

"I TOLD YOU TO KEEP AN EYE ON HER, TO PROTECT HER ESCPCIALLY FROM THE HOPE PROVINCE," the King yelled.

Riku gritted his teeth at the mention of the Hope Province. They were a group of anthro human cats just like them but they only cause disorder by bringing all types of animals with them.

"RIKU!"

Riku snapped back in reality and then explained to the King,

"You see My Lord, Kairi was out on her night time walks and I went with her just in case she doesn't get hurt. Then she just ran away from me and when I was at a dead end she just disappeared. I'm not sure where she's at now."

The King went up to Riku and looked at him closely in the eye.

"If you don't find my daughter your head will be in my Corpse Room with all the other knights that have disobeyed me. Understand," The King said with a threat in his voice.

"You have 40 days to find her, since in 40 days is your wedding. Or else."

Riku nodded his head in agreement.

"Good now you my be excuse. And start looking for her tomorrow."

And with that the King banished Riku from his room. Riku took a sigh and thought over on what just happened.

"I am determined to find you princess."

--

It was still morning as Roxas woke up. He let out one big yawn and looked at Namine who was still in his arms fast asleep. Then Namine woke up too with a small yawn as her eyes fluttered open. Roxas gave her a kiss and said,

"Morning beautiful."

Namine smiled while purring, "Morning Roxas."

Roxas always loved it whenever she says his name. Roxas then gave Namine another kiss and looked around. He noticed that Sora and Kairi were gone.

"Oh great Sir Idiot forgot to put out the fire," Roxas muttered.

Then Namine hit Roxas on the head.

"OUCH! WHAT WAS THAT FOR," Roxas asked.

"For calling your younger brother an idiot. I'm taking a guess that him and Kairi are some where. You know the first I laid eyes on her I knew Kairi was going to be with Sora," Namine said sweetly.

"Well don't you go in their business Namine."

"I won't. But haven't you notice Sora being depressed," Namine asked.

"Him depressed? He's always annoying," Roxas said.

Namine again hit Roxas on the head.

"I'm serious I mean before Sora found Kairi he would always wonder off because he hates to see us when we get…….um………romantic," Namine said.

"I guess you have a point there," Roxas admitted.

"And besides YOU can do some work too you lazy bum," Namine giggled.

"Ok I will only if you help me and I get to do this," Roxas growled sexily.

Namine's heart was pounding like crazy as Roxas kissed her. The two cats began to purr in delight. Roxas's tongue was searching every inch of Namine's mouth. Namine wanted more of Roxas, but there was always a limit so Namine was satisfied of what Roxas was giving her. Then Roxas broke away from the kiss with both of the cats purring.

"Now you have to help clean up," Roxas purred.

Namine was dizzy by now so she responded by licking lightly on Roxas's cheek and got up from his lap. And so the two were cleaning up the campsite ready to move on to their next destination.

--

"Sora where are we going."

Kairi was now nervous than ever, but she was excited at the same time.

"Well since I forgot to hunt last night I might as well do it to get it over with."

Kairi was on Sora's back while Sora was running and jumping on tree to tree.

Of course all cats can do this, but it seemed that the males are faster at it.

Then the two stopped at a field which looked like wheat. Sora jumped onto

the ground and swung Kairi around, still holding her, and placing her gently

on the ground. Sora sat on the ground next to her.

"I'm sorry on what I did earlier," Sora apologized.

Kairi looked at him. Sora looked so ashamed of himself that he couldn't look

her in the eye. Kairi placed her hand on Sora's cheek. Now this made Sora

look up towards her.

"Don't apologize. I'm grateful to be with you Sora. Even though we just met.

I feel like I can trust you with anything."

Sora started to purr and nuzzled his head in Kairi's hand. Kairi started to purr

while her heart was beating 50 miles an hour. Then Sora looked Kairi deeply

in her eyes. It was like he was reading her soul. All Sora could see was

happiness and a little depression, but mostly happiness. Sora took a deep

breath then let out a sigh. He grabbed Kairi by the waist and placed her on his

lap. Kairi placed her head against Sora's chest. She could hear his heart

beating and him purring.

"Kairi the night when I found you I knew from that moment that I loved you

and that I will always protect you," Sora quietly said.

"Sora I love you too."

And with that Sora kissed Kairi again passionately. As Sora broke away from

the kiss he traced his lips down to Kairi's neck again. He started kissing it.

His lips moved every single inch on Kairi's neck. Kairi purred and she lightly

started to lick his cheek. Sora and Kairi's tails were moving with excitement

on the grassy plain. Sora placed his hand under Kairi's chin and carefully

lifted her head up looking towards him. All they could do at that moment was

to look each other in the eyes. It was like one was trying hypnotized

the other into a deep spell that can only be cast by just the two of them. Sora

placed one hand on Kairi's lower back and the two of them fell backwards

with Kairi on top of Sora. Sora then started to lick Kairi on the cheek. His

tongue moved down to her neck again and he started to clean her. They both

purred at the same time with such satisfaction. Then Sora flipped them both

over lightly making Sora being on top of Kairi. Their torsos were only a foot

away from each other while their faces were an inch away. Sora kissed Kairi

one last time on the lips then whispered,

"I have to go and find some food. I'll be back in a minute."

Kairi purred and smiled while she nodded her head. Sora gave her a smile and

slowly got up. Then he ran off into the jungle looking for some food. Kairi

sat up and for some reason she kept on glowing. She was just so happy that

she found Sora. It was like the goddess Katrina wanted them to be together.

Kairi just smiled as she looked at her surroundings. She was sitting in a tall

grassy plain field with trees at the rim of the field. Just as Kairi was looking

around something hit her on the back. Or should I say someone. Kairi turned

her head around to see who it was. It was a little bunny looking so frightened.

"P-pl-lease don't hurt m-me," said the bunny.

Kairi gave the bunny a smile, "Why would I hurt you. You're so cute."

Kairi picked up the bunny and held it against her breast.

"Tell me sweetie what is your name," Kairi asked.

"S-skyler," the bunny managed to say.

"Well don't' worry Skyler. I promise that no one will hurt you," Kairi assured

Skyler.

"Are you the princess of the Yang Shire," Skyler asked.

"Well I use to be, but I ran away because I wasn't being treated nice there,"

Kairi explained.

"Oh I heard so many kind things you do for others Miss," Skyler

complimented.

"Why thank you," Kairi thanked Skyler.

And so Kairi started to stroke Skyler on the top of his head making sure that

he wasn't afraid anymore.

An hour passed and Sora hasn't returned. Kairi was starting to get worried,

but she couldn't let Skyler know that.

"Is something wrong Kairi," Skyler asked.

"Well I'm here with a friend and he was hunting for food. It has been an hour

since he left," Kairi explained.

"Well I didn't get to find anything," Sora said heading towards Kairi.

Sora stopped right in front of Kairi and looked down to see what she was

holding. The bunny looked up at Sora frightened by his eyes(A/N: Basically

the bunny is afraid of Sora).

Kairi saw this and she gave Sora a slap on the head.

"Sora you are not going to eat this poor creature," Kairi said sternly.

"Oh no it was the guy I was running away from," Skyler scream as he buried

his face against Kairi's chest. Sora gave Kairi a weak smile while Kairi was

stroking the bunny and giving Sora a stern look. So Sora gave a deep breath

and sighed in defeat,

"I'm sorry for almost trying to eat you."

Skyler looked up at Sora. He was smiling but Skyler was still scared.

"I-its o-okay," Skyler stuttered.

And Skyler quickly got out of Kairi's lap and hopped away.

"Well since I can't eat the bunny how about me and you go hunting for

deers," Sora suggested.

"But I don't really know how to hunt," Kairi admitted.

Sora took Kairi and placed her in his arms. His face was and inch away from

hers. Sora smiled and said,

"I can teach you."

Then Sora gave Kairi a kiss on the lips and began to run really fast again.

Sora and Kairi were in the same field only this time a different spot. It was

the spot with all of the deers.

"Now you want to stay hidden, but at the same time you want to make sure

you are able to see your target and make sure you stay quiet," Sora explained.

Kairi looked around and saw all different types of deers.

"Now watch me as I try to get that one." Sora pointed to one of the deers.

But this deer looked pregnant. Kairi stared at it. She felt bad for the deer

since it was being one of Sora's targets.

"Sora please no! She's pregnant," Kairi pleaded while she hugged his arm

looking like she was about to cry.

"Man she's hard to hunt with," Sora thought.

He looked at Kairi with understanding eyes. He didn't really want to do

anything that made Kairi uncomfortable. Sora kissed her on the cheek and

assured her,

"I won't kill that one ok?"

Kairi looked up and saw how serious Sora was being. She gave a kiss on his

cheek and smiled. Sora smiled back and then turned his head towards the

huge group of deers.

"Well which one do you want me to get," Sora asked.

Kairi looked around. Then she saw the perfect one. It was a strong male deer

that looked like it had a lot of meat in it.

"How about that one," Kairi asked as she pointed her head towards the strong

male deer.

Sora took a look at the deer and smiled with such greatness.

"No problem. Now watch me kill our prey." and with that Sora crawled until

he was behind the deer. Kairi just stayed in her spot yearning to watch. All

she could see of Sora was his cobalt eyes. The male deer though looked so

graceful while standing in the field. Then the deer heard a low growl from a

tree. Since the deer was the leader of the herd he went closer to the tree to

investigate. The deer came closer and closer and closer. Just as the deer was a

foot away from the tree out came Sora with his claws out ready to kill. The

male deer tried to get away but it was too late. Sora had his teeth sank in the

deer's neck. His teeth was sinking in deeper into the male's flesh. When

Sora's teeth sank down enough into the deer he pulled his teeth out and blood

came out of the deer's neck, but the male deer wasn't going to give up

without a fight. And Sora was ready for any attacks that the deer had. It

started to charge towards Sora while the blood was running down it's neck.

Kairi was so scared that she was sort of jumping up and down from her spot.

"Oh come on this is all you got."

And so Sora used his claws again and this time he clawed at the deer's chest.

His claws went so deep in his opponent's chest that it reached toward the

heart. In that moment the deer collapsed with defeat. It was now dead. Kairi

got up from her spot and ran over to Sora. She hugged him and licked the

blood off from him. Sora smiled and stroke her head telling her that he was

okay.

"Well let's take this back to the camp then we'll be going," Sora said as he

picked up the deer.

"What do you mean by going," Kairi asked.

Sora looked at her and he put down the deer.

"I think I should explain."

"Explain," Kairi asked again as she gave her head a little tilt to the side.

Sora went over to Kairi and grabbed her hand. Then he sat down, gently

bringing Kairi on his lap.

"Well I'm sure you heard of the Hope Province right," Sora began.

Kairi nodded her head and Sora continued,

"Well me, Roxas, and Namine are a group of people that are kind of against

the Yang Shire so we decided to go to the Ying Hill and ask the goddess

Katrina to be on our side."

"So you're the others that everyone keeps talking about," Kairi asked.

Sora nodded his head.

"Well why do you have to go to the Ying Hill anyways," Kairi asked.

"Well it looks like that the King wants to have war with us and we want

Katrina's blessings, but at the same time we are going to each village

and trying to build up an army," Sora explained.

"I-I never knew about this I mean if my father told me about this war I would

had stopped it," Kairi said sadly.

Sora kissed her on the top of her head.

"It's not your fault. The only person to blame here is your father for not

telling you."

Kairi smiled at Sora and kissed him on the cheek. I mean you can't really

blame her for not knowing.

"Besides I know you're a kind, gentle person. Well the only cat in the Yang

Shire that cares and I am glad that you are with us," Sora said.

"Now come. Roxas is going to kill me for being out this long," Sora

chuckled.

So he picked the dead deer up and swung it to one side of his shoulders.

"Are you a fast runner," Sora asked.

Kairi thought about that.

"I think so," Kairi said.

"All you have to do is follow me and don't worry I'll go slow on you."

Kairi gave out a little "humph"

Sora just laughed as he placed a kiss on Kairi's lips and then ran off. Kairi

followed along jumping tree to tree as fast as Sora can.

--

Back at the campsite the two cats were starving.

"He better come back with some good food," Roxas growled.

Namine just shook her head in annoyance while waiting patiently for Sora

and Kairi's return. Just as Roxas was going to explode Sora came out from

the tree with the deer on his one shoulder.

"Dude it took you forever just to hunt one fucking deer," Roxas shouted.

"ROXAS." And again Namine slapped Roxas on the head. Roxas rubbed his

bruised head (A/N: this sure isn't Roxas's day). Sora rolled his eyes as he put

the deer down and then Kairi came out of the tree, but Sora caught her and

placed her back on her feet.

"Well everyone you can dig in," Sora said.

Roxas got out one of his pocket knives and cut the deer open. This made

Kairi a little squeamish. Sora grabbed Kairi's hand and gave it a gentle

squeeze. Kairi gave a squeeze back.

"It will take like 5 minutes to cook and then we'll leave. Oh I almost forgot,

Kairi doesn't know why," but Namine was interrupted by Sora,

"I already explained it to her."

"Good," Namine said with a smile.

"Well I got all the guts out of it. Sora help me take them to the pond to throw

them out," Roxas said.

"Fine," Sora moaned.

He gave Kairi a kiss and helped Roxas with throwing away the deer guts. So

now it was just the two girls cooking the deer.

"I'm really glad that Sora found you," Namine said breaking the silence.

"Namine."

Namine turned her head around to look at Kairi.

"Are you guys the Hope Province," Kairi asked.

Namine smiled, "Yes we are, but whatever bad things you heard about us is a

lie. We are not bad, we are good. All we just want is peace."

"I know but I thought you guys just had a bigger group," Kairi said.

"That's what everyone thinks," Namine laughed.

Kairi joined in with the laughter.

"So just wondering how did you and Roxas meet," Kairi asked.

"Well I use to live in the Yang Shire. I was a slave to one of the richest cat

like humans there. They use to abuse me so much that I could barely even

walk. They would insult me telling me that no man would ever love me and

that I was ugly, but one night everything changed. Roxas and Sora stopped at

the kingdom to look for a mage to explain about more of the goddess Katrina.

It just so happens that I was in the market that day as well as Roxas. We

bumped into each other and I just couldn't keep my eyes off of him. He

helped me up and asked if I was alright. But when I said yes he kept

following me around while I was doing my errands. He knew that something

was bothering me and he took me to a little creek right outside the place. He

asked me what's wrong. I knew it was none of his business but I told him

everything and it was history from there," Namine explained.

"Aw that's so romantic," Kairi squealed.

Both of the girls giggled with glee.

"I'm just so glad I finally have another girl to talk to. I mean Roxas is fun to

talk to and all it's just I can't tell him any girly stuff," Namine sighed.

And so the two girls went right away with their cooking.

--

"Aw yuck this is just plain sick."

"Well you're the one that killed it."

"Well yeah but Kairi wanted me to kill this one."

"Why?"

The two boys were walking and talking at the same time while holding all

those deer guts.

"You always told me to go for the deers that are fat or pregnant, but Kairi felt

bad for the pregnant one and I didn't want to do anything that bothered her,"

Sora explained.

"Well you did the right thing," Roxas said.

Then the two men walked towards the pond and threw in that waste. Just as

they threw everything away Sora had an idea.

"You want to race to see who's faster?"

"Sora everyone knows that I can beat your ass."

"Chicken," Sora mocked.

"Fine your on."

So the men started to run back to the camp.

--

"Whelp the deer is…..gah!" and out of no where Sora surprisingly came out

from one of the trees. He gave Kairi a quick kiss on the lips and placed

her in front of him.

"Sora what's going on," Kairi giggled.

"Roxas……race……..going to……kick……..ass," Sora managed to breath

out.

Just then Roxas came out from the tree and landed gracefully on his feet. He

went over to give Namine a kiss on the lips and looked at Sora deadly.

"No fair you had a head start!"

"No I didn't I gave you 5 minutes of a start."

"I win."

"Why do you win!?"

"Cause I 'm the oldest."

"Yeah like by a minute."

"BOYS STOP FIGHTING," shouted Namine.

"Please," added Kairi.

"Sorry," they both said in unison.

"Just as I was about to say. It's ready we can all eat now," Kairi said.

Of course Sora and Roxas gulped down on the meat in a minute while Kairi

and Namine took their time.

An hour passed and the group was done eating.

"Man I'm stuffed," Sora said.

"You're such a hog," Kairi giggled while licking her fingers.

Sora purred and grabbed the hand that Kairi was licking and licked it clean

for her.

"Hey do you mind I'm still eating here," Roxas said with food in his mouth.

But Sora and Kairi kept on what they were doing while purring. Namine

smiled at the two of them.

"Sora I think my fingers are cleaned now," Kairi whispered with giggles.

Sora ignored her and continued to keep purring and then gave Kairi an

eskimo kiss. Roxas looked at Namine and saw a bit of blood around her

mouth. He then decided to lick around Namine's lips. They both started to

purr too. Everything and everyone was silenced. The only thing you could

hear is purring.

"I think we better get going," Sora said while looking at Kairi and talking to

everyone.

Roxas gave Namine one last lick and sighed.

"ok I guess so."

" So which route are we taking," Sora asked.

"East," Roxas answered as he scooped up Namine against his chest.

"OK."

So then Sora picked up Kairi. He looked down at her like she was an angel.

Kairi kissed Sora's cheek and Sora kissed Kairi's lips. And so Roxas started

to go and then Sora followed behind heading towards their next destination.

--

Wow that took me forever to write. I think about 3-4 hours. O well at

least I had fun writing it. And I told you for all you Roxas and Namine

fans that there was going to be a scene between them. O I should explain

who Katrina is. She is the goddess of the anthro cats. She chooses their

fate. So now you kind of know why Sora and Kairi feel in love at first

sight. Along with Roxas and Namine of course. So stay tuned for Chapter

4. Also if your having a hard time imaging what they sound like when

they're purring just imagine a cat purring and there you go.

P.S. that took me like 10 pages to write. My aching fingers!!
