Coming Home
Kairi sighed as she walked towards the boat, thinking deeply about what the King had said.
He's right, but I doubt the boys will like having to be silent much, she thought to herself. Well, maybe Riku won't mind, but Sora probably wants to do nothing but brag to Wakka and Tidus...now he can't...
The Princess's thoughts trailed off as she reached the dock, and she looked at one of the three boats tied up with slight bewilderment.
Sora and Riku were already in the boat. Riku was slumped over the bow of the boat, his head on his left arm as he snored uproariously. Sora was leaning against the stern of the boat, his face upturned to the sky. His hands were on either side of the boat, trailing in the water and his mouth was wide open, drool already making its way down his chin.
They were fast asleep.
The red-haired teenager was puzzled for a second, and then a realization hit her.
I never thought about it before, thought Kairi, but those two must be exhausted. They fought the leader of the Nobodies, the embodiment of darkness and nothing, and defeated him single-handedly. I don't think they had time to rest between that and the battle we were in before. No wonder they passed out.
Kairi smiled at her friends, leaning over to brush some hair off of Sora's face. Sighing, she put her hands on the side of the boat, readying herself to jump in, when a thought struck her.
But wait...how am I supposed to get to the main island? There's no way I can row the three of us there by myself, and the King, Donald and Goofy have probably already left via Gummi ship...
Kairi bit her lip in worry, looking at her sleeping comrades with regret. They looked so peaceful...and she really didn't want to wake them up, but she didn't have-
Just then, a blue, furry head arose from the bottom of the boat. Kairi jumped back in surprise, raising her hands up into what she believed to be a fighting stance.
A small, dog-like Koala creature grinned at Kairi, before standing up to reveal four arms, each holding a paddle.
"Go fast now?" asked the creature, waving the paddles excitedly. Kairi frowned as she regarded the creature, somewhat apprehensive of trusting it. Was it a new kind of Heartless? It didn't seem dark...
"Who are you?" she asked, taking a step back.
The creature did a back flip, twirling the paddles.
"Miga Stitch! Sora summon me before he go sleep! Wanna go fast now?" he stated coyly, with a slightly evil laugh.
Kairi raised an eyebrow, before turning to look at the sleeping Keyblade Master.
He must have felt himself falling asleep, she thought to herself, and summoned...Stitch to help us get to the island. Huh. Sora thinking ahead, will wonders ever cease!
Kairi turned back to the creature, Stitch, and smiled.
"Okay Stitch, if you're a friend of Sora's then maybe we can work together!" she exclaimed, climbing into the boat.
Stitch nodded and placed the paddles in the water. "Ih," he said in agreement, before whirling his arms in a windmill and sending the boat pitching forward through the water, breaking the rope that tied it to the dock.
Kairi screamed as she fell backwards in the boat, landing beside the furry alien.
"Miga Naga Queesta!" cried Stitch, laughing maniacally as the boat literally flew through the water, lifting off the ocean's surface on several occasions.
With supreme effort, Kairi managed to sit up, gripping the sides of the boat tightly.
Thanks a lot Sora, she thought to herself bitterly. We'll get to the island in less then a minute, but we'll be splatter art all over this boat!
Kairi flinched as Stitch let out another sociopathic laugh, and she looked back at Sora in wonder. The teenaged boy was still out to the world, despite the fact that the bumpy ride and instability of the boat had caused the top of his head to dip into the water numerous times.
The Princess turned to look at Riku, who was also still asleep, though his eyes were twitching slightly, hinting that the rough journey was disturbing his rest.
Kairi sighed and shut her eyes, wishing for nothing more than the hellish trip to be ov-
Bang!!!!
Kairi let out a shriek as the boat crashed into the dock of the main island. Her eyes flew open in time to see Stitch standing on Riku's head, waving cheekily at her before disappearing in an overdramatic puff of smoke.
Kairi stared at the empty space in shock and then stood up shakily, observing her surroundings.
They were at the docks of the main island, a large area filled with boats of varying size and degree. Fishing boats, racing boats, rescue boats, and simple row boats all filed the area. The dock that Stitch had crashed them into was right in the center of the area, and Kairi winced as she saw the two halves of the boat that used to rest in the spot they were now in.
The front of their boat was damaged on the left side, and that side of Riku's body dipped precariously into the water. However, the teenager continued to be out to the world, and his snores seemed to increase in volume.
Sora's head was half submerged in water, as the boat had ridden onto the dock slightly, putting it on an incline that had Sora falling backwards into the water. The water covered the top of his head and his eyes, stopping in the middle of his nose. The Keyblade Master continued to sleep obliviously, drool mingling with the water.
Kairi shook her head in disbelief as she saw the hilarious positions her friends were in, and the fact that it had yet to awaken them from their deep slumber.
"What's going on?! Who's causin' all that ruckus down there?!"
Kairi looked up as she heard an angry sounding voice coming from the dock.
A teenager stood there, with dirty, sea-scorn clothes and a shock of red-orange hair, held upright by a wide blue headband. In one hand he held a paddle, and under the other arm he held a blue and white ball.
Kairi smiled as she recognized Sora and Riku's Blitzball loving friend, Wakka.
"Hello, Wakka," she said pleasantly. "It's me, Kairi."
Wakka took a startled step backwards, then advanced angrily, about to admonish the girl for yanking his chain. Then, he looked closer, and saw that it was, in fact, the girl that had gone missing. Joy filled the boy, and it only increased when he saw that she wasn't alone in the boat...
"Riku! Sora!" he exclaimed jubilantly, seemingly oblivious to the fact that the two boys were unconscious, "You're alright! Oh man, we've been worried sick about you guys! We thought you was dead! Wait until I tell the others! I gotta get Tidus and Selphie. Oh, and you guys's parents! Ha, I've got to get the whole island! Wait a second man, I'll be right back!"
Kairi watched in amusement as Wakka ran off, practically leaping for joy as he went to rouse the island.
The red-haired girl made her way carefully across the splintered boat and jumped up onto the dock, stumbling slightly on the uneven planking, made more precarious by the damage done to it by the wayward vessel.
Kairi sighed and closed her eyes, turning her face to the sky.
It's great to be home, she thought. I've missed Destiny Islands...the peaceful waters, the lulling breeze, the serenity of it all.....
"SOOOOOORRRRAAAAA!!!"
Kairi let out a little cry, and jumped, her eyes flying open as a piercing shriek rent the air. The Princess turned around in time to see a flash of golden-brown hair and oven-mitt covered hands before something crashed into her and sent her flying into the water.
"Do you want cookies Sora?"
"I have the best cookies,"
"The only cookies Sora's having are mine!"
"No! Sora's having my cookies!"
"Sora, aren't my cookies the best?"
Sora stared at the giant plate of vanilla cookies in Kairi's hands, then at the giant plate of cinnamon sugar cookies in Namine's hands.
He swallowed nervously.
"Well....um....hehe...."
"What about my cookies?!"
Sora whirled around.
Behind him was another girl, with shoulder length, raven-black hair that curled into ringlets at the tips. She had golden brown eyes and a dusting of freckles across her nose. She was wearing baggy, ripped black cargo pants, and a black halter top with silver lining. One black wristband adorned her right wrist, while a silver one adorned her left. She seemed to be about Sora's age, if not a bit older, and she was holding a plate of dark chocolate cookies.
"Well Sora?" chorused the three girls.
The Keyblade Master sweatdropped, and whipped his head back and forth between all the girls.
"Uh...uh...," he stammered, wilting under the glare of the three angry teenagers.
"Sora," said the black-haired girl, leaning down towards the brunette. "How could you say no?" she smiled, revealing two extra sharp canines. Sora stared at her, mesmerized by her golden eyes and sinister, but winning smile. She placed her hand on his arm, and waved one of her cookies tantalizingly in front of his face. Sora followed it with his eyes, completely rapt by the girl and her cookies.
"Fawn...," he whispered enthralled.
Kairi and Namine shrieked in rage, and Sora turned around to see them both holding keyblades, aimed at him and the girl.
"Sunlight shadowed by Moonlight, Moonlight fed by darkness. Light led astray, Dark rendered useless, Twilight betrayed by all, and consumed by the Moon and the Night," said both girls ominously.
Sora's eyes widened and he took a step backward.
"W-wait, what does that mean? And wh-why are you pointing those at me? Why are you all getting so worked up about cookies...," Sora trailed off as he saw the tips of the keyblades beginning to glow.
"Don't forget Keyblade master," said Fawn, whispering in Sora's ear. "How could you say no?"
With that, Kairi and Namine fired, and Sora flung his arms up in front of his face.
"Waaaaa!!!!" Sora flew backwards, as he was hit by a barrage of water.
Can't breathe, he thought to himself, Can't move....
Sora's eyes flew open and he opened his mouth, trying to take a grateful breath, but water flew into his lungs instead. The Keyblade Master let out a cry and floundered about, completely disoriented.
Something grabbed onto the hood of Sora's jacket and yanked him to the surface. The teenager spat out jets of water and blinked his eyes, trying to clear his blurred vision.
"Sora! Sora are you alright? Sora! Speak to me!!"
Mari Mey shook her son fiercely, her oven-mitted hands grasping his jacket tightly.
"W-wah....s-stop sh-shaking m-me!" implored Sora, going cross-eyed as he was shaken back and forth ruthlessly.
Riku broke surface, coughing as he shook his head, looking around dazedly.
"Rikuuu!"
The silver-haired teenager felt himself being tugged onto the dock and found himself staring up into five pairs of identical green eyes.
"Where have you been?"
"Big brother, are you okay?"
"Did you bring us anything?"
"Yeah, did you bring us a present?"
"Wiku!!"
Riku smiled as he looked up into the faces of his five siblings. Twelve-year-old Maki, with silver, Roxas-esque hair, ten-year-old Allis, with curling, white-silver ringlets, the twins, Yori and Kole, Kole, with wild, curly, light silver locks, and Yori with dead straight, white-silver hair, and three-year-old Benj, with long silver hair that already fell to his shoulders.
"Hey, guys," he said softly, sitting up. The five Riku-clones smiled at their big brother.
"Riku! You've been gone for two years!"
"We thought you were deeeaaaddd,"
"Wiku!"
"Yeah, but then Wakka came, and he said you were back!"
"We all ran soooo fast!"
"Mom's out on the boat, fishing. She'll be soooo happy when she gets back!"
"Wiku!"
"I think we're the first ones here!"
"No way, Mrs. Mey is the first one here. Did you see how fast she ran?"
"Yeah, and then she saw Sora and jumped onto the boat!"
"And it broke in half!"
"Wiku!"
"Yeah, and when she ran by she pushed Kairi in the water!"
"Hehe, so now all three of you are soaking wet!"
"Wiku!"
"Look, Mrs. Mey, is practically strangling Sora right now!"
The five hyperactive children looked behind Riku, who turned his head.
Mari Mey, Sora's mother, had the brown-haired teenager in the tightest grip known to man. Sora's eyes were practically bugging out as he struggled to breathe in his mom's embrace.
"SoraMeyIswearyougavemethescareofmylifeIthoughtIhadlostyouforeverohmygodIcan'tbelieveyou'rebackpleasedon'teverleavemeagainohmygodohmygodohmygodohymygod!!!"
Mari released a senseless stream of words as she tightly hugged her son.
"Mom....can't...(gasp)....please....need...oxygen....," sputtered Sora.
This woman needs to take her pills...
Sora started, startled by the phantom voice that had just echoed through his mind, but he dismissed it as being caused by lack of air, and tried to wriggle out of his mother's clutches.
Kairi watched in amusement as her two friends were reunited with their families. She was dripping wet from landing in the water after Mari had pushed her in during her mad dash for the boat, and she wrung water out of her dress irritably.
The Princess turned her head as she heard shouts, and saw the rest of Destiny Island rushing towards the docks to welcome the boys home.
Kairi smiled.
We're back, she thought to herself.
We're home.
And so, we have another chapter finished. I'm so glad, this thing was torture to write. The only fun I had was when I was writing Sora's dream.
What was with that weird dream? And who is Fawn? What did DreamKairi and DreamNamine mean? What's gonna happen next? And will Roxas ever escape Axel's kinky clutches?? O_O
Hehe, review and maybe you'll find out!
Seriously, review, it fills my heart with such joy!
And if you don't review I won't update as fast, because I have other stories that are reviewed and if they get more reviews I have to update them first!
P.S. Akuroku lovers, don't attack me, I love that pairing too, and I actually don't mind Yaoi, but I just couldn't resist! I think I'm going to torture Roxas regularly in my disclaimers
Until next time!
