Chapter 5: What????!!!!

She got home and ran up to her room and got out the old picture box. She started shuffling through pictures of her and her old friends, her first steps, her first bath, ect. ect.

"Hey, how did this get in here?" Kairi asked herself as she picked up her birth certificate. "Well, might as well look at it. I've looked at everything else in this box. Beside, maybe it'll be fun." But what she saw was anything but fun. She ran downstairs and shouted, "Mom! Dad!"

"In the living room!" her mom shouted back. Kairi ran into the living room.

"How could you not tell me about this?" Kairi asked starting to cry.

"Honey, where did you get that?" Her mother asked frantically.

"In an old picture box. Now, please just tell me this is a joke."

"I'm sorry honey, it's not a joke." He dad said rubbing his forehead.

"What??!!"

"Honey, we were trying to protect you." Her mother said.

"Protect me from what? Knowing the truth?!"

"No, we were going to tell you when you were older."

"How can you wait to tell me I'm adopted??"

"Well, we didn't want you to overreact."

"So, is everything I know a lie?? What happened to my real parents?"

"They died in a car wreck."

"Oh.My.God"

"Honey."

"This cannot be happening."

"Honey please."

"Don't call me honey. I hate you! Both of you! You lied to me!!" Kairi yelled as she ran up the stairs and to her room. She started packing. She got all she needed and ran back downstairs and ran out of the house.

"Kairi! Where are you going??" her mom shouted.

"Anywhere is better than here!" Kairi shouted back while running.

"Kairi!! Get back here!!" her dad shouted, but she was pretty far away by then. She kept on running and let her legs lead her. Then she ran up a driveway and rang the doorbell.

"Hello?" Rikku asked as she, Namine, and Yuna answered the door. "Ok. Which one of you two told Kairi we were having the sleepover? I was supposed to invite her." Rikku said. But then she noticed Kairi was crying. "Never mind. Girls, take Kairi's stuff up to my room. Kairi, come in." Rikku said hugging her. They walked in and sat down at the table in Rikku's kitchen. "What happened?"

"I -sniff sniff- just found out –sniff- that I'm –sniff sniff– adopted." Kairi said.

"Oh my gosh." Rikku said.

"Yeah." Kairi replied.

"How did you find out?"

"I was looking through an old picture box and found it."

"Oh, Kairi." Rikku said hugging her again. Just then Rikku's mom walked into the house.

"Rikku!" she shouted.

"In the kitchen mom." Rikku shouted back to her mother. Her mom walked in and saw Kairi.

"Kairi, dear what happened?" her mom asked. Rikku explained because Kairi couldn't stop crying. Rikku's mom understood and said Kairi could stay with them as long as she needed. Then they went upstairs to Rikku's room. They walked in and Namine and Yuna immediately ran up to Kairi and hugged her. Then they all sat on the floor and Kairi explained everything. "Oh my gosh" was all they could say. Rikku thought that maybe the boys should come just to help. So she grabbed her cell off her desk and dialed Riku's number. He picked up on the first ring.

"You're on the air." Riku said knowing it was Rikku. He always said that when she called.

"Riku call the guys and come to my house ASAP."

"Why? What's up?"

"It's Kairi. Just come. Please?"

"Ok, we'll be there in ten." Rikku hung up and went sat with the girls. About ten minutes later the doorbell rang and Rikku's mom opened it.

"Why hello boys. What can I do for you?" she greeted.

"Hi. Rikku asked us to come over. She said it was an emergency." Riku said.

"Rikku! Get down here!!" Rikku quickly ran down the stairs.

"What's up mom?" Rikku asked.

"Why don't you tell me?" Rikku's mom said waving hr hand towards the boys.

"Oh, that. I asked them to come over to help with Kairi."

"Oh. And how long will they be staying?"

"Just a couple hours or something." Rikku's mom gave her a look saying "And what will you be doing?"

"Ehmagawd!! Mom, no. they're just friends." Rikku reassured her mom.

"Whatever. Just don't break anything." Her mom said before walking into the kitchen. Rikku pushed the door open and the boys walked in.

"Sorry about her. She's a little uptight about boys." Rikku explained.

"Whatever. Where's Kairi?" Sora asked.

"Come on." Rikku said as she led the boys upstairs to her room. She opened the door and as soon as Sora saw Kairi on the floor he ran and slid down next to her.

"Kairi! What happened? Was it that guy from the club?"

"No." Kairi mumbled through her hands."

"What was it then?"

"I just found out I'm adopted."

"What? How??"

"I saw my birth certificate in an old picture box and decided to look at it. And that's how I found out." Kairi mumbled.

"Oh my god. Kairi I'm so sorry." Sora replied. She turned to him and grabbed him in a tight hug. She felt she could depend on him. She never wanted to let go but then she realized that the rest of the group was there. She let go and looked around the room and realized that the group was gone. Sora stood up and helped Kairi up. They walked out of Rikku's room and heard everyone talking downstairs. They went downstairs and Rikku turned to Kairi.

"Kairi. How are you feeling?" Rikku asked.

"I don't know. Wait a minute. You don't think Selphie knew, do you?" Kairi said.

"Call her." Namine said handing her the phone. Kairi took it and dialed Selphie's number.

"Hello?" Selphie asked.

"Hey it's Kairi."

"Oh, hey Kairi. Are you ok? You sound like you're crying."

"Selphie, did you know I was adopted?"

"Ok, but Kairi. Your parents made me promise not to tell."

"So you knew?"

"I'm sorry."

"How could you not tell me?"

"Your parents-"

"Forget my parents. You should've just told me!"

"I'm sorry."

"Whatever."

Click.

"She knew?" Namine asked.

"Yeah."

"I'm sorry Kairi." Rikku said as she walked over and hugged Kairi.

"I just…this means everything I know is a lie."

"Do you know what happened to your real parents?"

"They died in a car wreck." Kairi started breaking down again. She ran to the bathroom and locked the door and bawled her eyes out. There was a soft knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Kairi said between tears.

"It's Rikku. You wanna come out we can just talk?" Rikku said. Kairi walked over to the door and opened it. They all went upstairs and sat in Rikku's room. Sora felt so bad for Kairi. He would've sat next to her, but the girls had her surrounded on the bed.

"It's gonna be okay Kairi." Namine said playing with Kairi's hair.

"Hey, it's almost sunset. You wanna head down to the docks, Kairi?" Yuna said.

"Sure." Kairi said getting up. They walked down to the docks and sat on the edge.

"Thanks you guys." Kairi said.

"Of course." Rikku said.

"It's good to know I have friends like you guys."

"No problem Kairi. We always got your back." Sora said. After the sunset they all headed back to Rikku's. They ordered a pizza and hung around. After a while the guys had to go, so it was just the girls. They got into their pajamas which were satin boy shorts and satin camis. They all climbed in Rikku's bed and talked until they fell asleep.

Kairi was walking on the beach and Sora was ahead of her. She stopped and just looked out over the ocean. It was so peaceful. Suddenly, a black creature jumped on her and more came and tackled her to the ground. She tried to call Sora's name but she couldn't.

"Ahhhhh!!!!!" Kairi screamed waking up in a sweat.

"What?!! What is it??" Rikku screamed sitting up. In no time at all the girls were up and looking at Kairi.

"What happened?" Namine said.

"Oh. It was just a dream."

"You okay?" Yuna asked.

"Yeah. That was just the scariest dream ever." All the girls soon fell back asleep and Kairi didn't have that dream again. But she couldn't figure out what it meant.
