Chapter 8:

One Step Closer part 1

The gummi ship peacefully flew through space. Not a single Heartless or Nobody ship had attacked. so, they set it to auto-pilot and relaxed. Riku read a manga, while Sora and Kairi played go fish.

"I win again!" Sora announced with a huge grin.

"I'm getting bored with this game." Kairi's irritated voice said.

"Awww, you're just a sore loser Kairi." Sora poked.

"Shuddup!!! Sora, you're just a sore winner!!!!!!" Kairi yelled, holding up her fist.

"Someone's PMSing!!!" Sora sang mokingly.

"I AM NOT!!!!! SORA!!!!" Kairi yelled, before punching the brunette boy.

"Yes you are Kairi, now behave yourselves, we're here." Riku said cooly.

Kairi growled and buckled the seatbelt for landing. They landed smoothly and just where they wanted to, the old mansion. Everyone got out of the little ship and stretched. Roxas appeared next to Sora and walked over to the huge black gate.

"What's up Roxas?" Sora said, walking over to the blond.

"It's just, I have so many memories of this place. I never thought I'd be back though." Roxas said, putting his hand over the giant lock.

"Well just remember, this isn't the same Twilight Town you lived in. Hayner and the others won't remember you." Sora told.

"Then how'd they know you when you first came here?" Roxas asked.

"Huh. I'd totally forgotten about that, good point." Sora smiled.

"So, are we going in there?" Kairi asked.

"I dunno how to work the computer." Sora and Roxas said together.

"Neither do I. So, we just wasted our time coming over here then." Riku sighed.

"Pence knows how. He hacked it so I could go to Roxas' Twilight Town, and on to The World That Never Was." Sora said.

"Well, where would 'Pence' be?" Riku asked.

"The usual spot." The other three said together.

"Why does everybody do that?! Gods!" Riku yelled, turning to the forest.

Everyone laughed as they followed Riku, only to end up leading the way, to the Usual Spot.

"We made it!" Sora said, excitedly.

"You almost got lost three times." Kairi stated.

"Shut it!" Sora said, before walking through the drape covering the doorway.

"Hey, get outta- Oh! Hey Sora." Hayner said, as he lowered his fist.

"Sora! KAIRI!" Olette said, running to Kairi's side and hugging her.

"Hey guys!" Pence smiled, before snapping a picture of the old friends.

Riku walked in, followed by Roxas. When Roxas came in, Hayner, Pence, and Olette all looked confused.

"Do- do we know you?" Hayner asked him.

"No, I'm Sora's... cousin." Roxas lied with a frown.

"Wow! You guys look a lot alike." Pence said, taking a photo of Sora and Roxas.

"Hey, Pence, can you do us a favor?" Sora asked.

"What is it?" Pence asked.

"We need you to hack the computer in the mansion for us." Roxas explained.

"Easy enough, let's go!" Pence smiled.

Pence easily broke into the computer's network, he knew the password and how to work the computer, so it only took about five minutes to get to the main screen.

"So, what do we wanna know?" Pence asked the others.

"Type in Ausea." Riku said.

Sora laughed and Roxas, Riku, and Kairi rolled their eyes.

"Got it. Look." Pence announced, moving away from the monitor.

The picture was a woman. She had red hair with blond highlights. Her eyes were an evil purple, with slits for pupils.

"So, she has Nami." Kairi stated.

"Hey! She worked with Ansem. She was his assistant before Xehanort. Looks like she left his side due to scientific opinion." Sora read.

"Why's everything connected to him?" Roxas wondered.

"I dunno, he did discover the Heartless." Riku suggested.

"Type in Naminé, and see what you find." Sora said.

"Ok, I'll do it guys, this computer's very sensitive." Pence pushed through the islanders.

"Heh, do I know that." Roxas laughed to himself, remembering when he had destroyed the virtual one so long ago.

"What was that?" Pence asked.

"Nothing, I was talking to myself." Roxas replied.

"Found her." Pence said, before moving from the computer again.

Now the picture was a familiar blond girl, with blue eyes. Roxas smiled when he saw it.

"Is she special to you?" Olette asked when she saw the grin on Roxas' face.

"Yeah." Roxas' grin was a huge smile now, and his cheeks were the slightest shade of pink.

"It doesn't say anything about her location though." Sora frowned.

"I have an idea!" Olette smiled.

"What?" The islanders asked.

"We could go to the clock tower, you can see everything from up there!" Olette jumped as she spoke.

"Ok." Sora said.

"Then let's go." Hayner said, before walking to the stairs.

The other's followed, accept for Roxas. He stayed staring at the monitor.

"Roxas, you coming?" Kairi asked.

"Yeah, I just feel like we're so close to finding her now, but, we're not." Roxas said, before he closed the window with Naminé's picture on it.

"Don't worry, we'll get there." Kairi smiled.
