More Worlds, and a Moment of Confusion

A/N: YES! I have updated the second interesting chapter in the ENTIRE story! YAY ME! Riku's in this one… and some more worlds… and more information, only a tiny bit, of Meera's past. And a little hint as to some stuff about Zopyris. Hehe… this is gonna be a fun chapter guys!

Cookie Rewarding Time:

Iamtheflames: Gah, you own less than half, and it's not MY fault you got ideas and put them into a slide show on MY computer:P So ha! Amazingly well-written? Wow, so I have two reviewers, one of which really, really likes my story… and the other of which helped with the plot and Meera and says it's "Amazing well-written"… I'm shocked! You write a Riku/OC fic and I swear I'll kill you! You KNOW Riku is MY thing! You just go… write about Cloud or something! Thanks for reading and reviewing anyway:P

LockInspira: Hehe, yup! And now you get even MORE cookies for reviewing, and reading, those two super duper boring chapters! I promise, this one is a whole lot better! I do believe I may use that "Put them all together and have a tiny bar" idea for any future boring sets of chapters, heh… Thanks for the review!

Hehe, so now for the fun chapter! Eh… If you want the effing disclaimer… once again, go back to chapter one, cuz I'm not sayin it again, hah!

"Mickey?" Kairi asked the mouse. Mickey's ears flopped around as he turned back to the fourth Keyblade Bearer.

"Yes Kairi?" Mickey asked the girl.

"Um… so, the five of us are going on another quest?" Kairi asked. Mickey nodded. "I was wondering… some of the worlds that Sora told me about in his first journey… he didn't go to them again in his second. Do you know why?" Kairi asked.

"Kairi, there are many more worlds than Sora or even I have ever been to. I have a feeling that, in this journey, not only will you re-visit the previous ones, but there will be many new worlds as well. I am certain of a few of the worlds, old and new, that we will be going to, if you would like me to write them down for you?" Mickey explained to Kairi. She nodded and reached in her back pocket, pulling out a pencil and a notepad, giving it to the mouse.

After Mickey was done writing, he gave the notepad and pencil back to Kairi. It read:

Atlantica

Beast's Castle

Disney Castle

Halloween Town

Radiant Garden

Olympus Coliseum

Port Royal

The World That Never Was

Twilight Town

Destiny Islands

Wonderland

Never Land

The Circus

The New World

The Anenomy

Monster's Inc.

"Wow… and these are only the places you're SURE we're hoping to go to?" Kairi asked, looking up from her notepad… only to notice that Mickey had left the room, Kairi following suit.

XXXXXXXXXX

"Oh, I'm sorry, I-"

Meera looked up that the sound of that voice… and screamed before running away from this man before her, all the way out of the castle, not stopping until she reached the lake behind the castle, sitting down on her favorite bench.

She laid down, her eyes closed, and she relaxed, hoping that that man hadn't followed her out there. When she opened her eyes, looking up, she saw Kairi at the fourth floor balcony looking down at her, before Kairi grabbed a vine and climbed down to where Meera was.

"You okay? You're name's Meera, right?" Kairi asked. Meera nodded and sat back up, allowing Kairi to take a seat on the bench. Meera made sure her hair was covering her right shoulder.

"I-I'm fine…" Meera muttered, looking down at her knees. She heard footsteps to their left and didn't even turn to look. She just stared into the light blue, shimmering water. Kairi looked though.

"Riku? What are you doing?" Kairi asked, looking from him to Meera, and back to him again.

"Running, avoiding weird lifts that don't work, and running into doors, trying to apologize and see what that girl's problem is!" Riku exclaimed, gesturing toward Meera. "Who is she anyway?"

"Meera, what happened?" Kairi asked the girl. Meera looked over to Riku before quickly looking away, to Kairi instead.

"He ran into me and… just startled me is all. I've… had a bad week…" Meera told Kairi, making a point to not look at Riku. Kairi smiled and stood up, before dragging the girl over to Riku. Meera bit her teeth before looking up at him, and then staring at Kairi like she was insane.

"Both of you apologize! I know you both can!" Kairi exclaimed, a bit annoyed at their childish behavior. Meera turned her face back to Riku's and stared at him, raising an eyebrow… waiting. He bit down on his tongue before saying anything, and Kairi coughed expectantly.

"I'm sorry for running into you and startling you…" Riku said, obviously not meaning it. Meera grunted and kept her teeth tightly pressed together.

"Well I'm so sorry that I was so rude. Oh pleaseforgive me," Meera added, smirking for good measure. Riku glared at Meera. Meera returned the glare, equally fierce, before Kairi pulled Meera away from Riku.

"I guess that's as good as it'll get from either of you…" Kairi sighed. Meera broke free of Kairi, still seething, and took a seat on the bench, a raven flying over to her and landing on her finger. Meera pet the bird, calming herself somewhat.

"I don't like him," Meera told Kairi, focusing on the raven. Kairi sighed and sat down beside Meera, watching the bird, and Meera, intensely.

"Why though? You just met him, only a few minutes ago… right?" Kairi asked. Meera let the bird fly away before crossing her hands in her lap, staring at them.

"Yes. I did only just meet him… I just don't like him. He gives me this bad feeling in the pit of my stomach…" Meera explained, looking to Kairi. She sighed before standing up.

"Well, I'll go talk to Riku, and see what his problem is…"

5 Minutes Later

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN I NEED TO APOLOGIZE FOR APOLOGIZING WRONG!?!?!?!?!"

Meera looked up at the fourth floor balcony and rolled her eyes at the sound of Riku yelling at Kairi. Meera grabbed a vine and climbed up before knocking on the glass door into Kairi's room. Kairi stopped saying whatever she was saying and came to the door, letting Meera inside.

"Oh, he doesn't need to apologize again Kairi. His apology was just as good as mine," Meera said, a smirk on her face. She could almost feel Riku glaring at her. Kairi moaned and looked from Riku to Meera.

"Guuuuuuuuuys, you two HAVE to get along sometime! Me, you two, Sora, and the King are going on this journey together, so if we EVER want to achieve the name of TEAM, can't you at lease be CIVIL?" Kairi asked the two. Meera's smirk fell, and she huffed, looking away from Riku. He grunted and stared at Kairi.

"SHE'S the one who screamed at me while I was TRYING to apologize!" Riku exclaimed. Meera turned her face back to Kairi.

"I was OBVIOUSLY upset about what Mickey said, and he DELIBERATELY ran into me!" Meera yelled, pointing at Riku.

"SHE ran away and made me fall down a lift trying to figure out which way SHE ran off to!" Riku added.

"Well HE… um… uh…" Meera stuttered, lowering her hand. Riku smirked.

Riku: 1 Meera: 0

"Would you two just STOP IT?" A fourth voice yelled from the door way, causing all three heads to snap there. Sora stood there, a bag of ice on his head. "My room is right next door and you, Meera, and you, Riku, are yelling like mad and giving me a HUGE migraine… and I've never had a headache before in my LIFE! So… just STOP IT!"

All three of their mouths dropped at Sora's annoyance and anger, since he was always so nice… Kairi figured it was a bit of Roxas coming out in his personality. She went back into his room with him, leaving Riku and Meera alone.

"I don't like you," Meera told him, a fierce glare on her face.

"Oh yeah? Well, I don't like you either!" Riku exclaimed, glaring even more fiercely.

"Hmph!" Meera huffed before going back onto the balcony and climbing up a vine to her own balcony… "And good riddance…" She muttered, sticking her tongue out at the air below her.
