Axel led the party willingly. He walked, while smoking. Sora thought Axel had no idea what he was doing, and was only wasting their time. Kairi just followed silent and willingly. Axel more or less had explored Traverse town, almost like an excited kid. Before long Axel had found the second district and Sora grabbed him angrily.
"What are we doing here? If we are looking for them wouldn't they be in other worlds?!" Sora was quite pissed, Axel wasn't the best company right now, even when Sora knew he had no other best friend. Axel just stood silent a second, not even looking at him.
"I can sense one here..But I dont know exactly where, or who," Axel pushed Sora off, continuing into the second district, more serious. Kairi sighed, Sora was acting funny and it hurt her to see him like that. She watched him from afar, then pushed past him, walking next to Axel, trying to enjoy the visitor's company. He just smiled down at her, making her blush slightly. Before long Axel had brought them to a small alleyway inn, with a sign about Karoke night.
"Drinks on me," He led them in. The bar area was smokey and filled with friday night drunks. He seated them and walked up to the bar, talking to the bar tender. Kairi and Sora had taken seats across from eachother, neither of them in the mood to talk. Kairi sighed, looking over at the drunk that happened to be singing her favorite song. She smiled a second then closed her eyes, daydreaming. The karoke then broke into another song, starting with the loud scream of a male voice. Kairi jumped slighlty, then looked at Sora, who was watching the singer intensly. Kairi held her gaze on Sora, still in her day dream. Her eyes wandered to his lips, she stared noticing how untouched and pouty his lips loooked. Her daydream focused on those lips, her own meeting his...A high pitched 'Ow' on the microphone snapped her out of her dream, and she looked over to see the singer of the last song had been tackled by Axel.
"AXEL!" She got up, running to the stage almost tripping over herself. She pulled him off the singer, now on the floor. She started apologizing just as Sora walked up, grabbing the singer by hit collar, dragging him out of the bar, Axel following. The had left Kairi standing there, bewildered.
Riku woke up to the sound of a slammed door, and a rustling in the kitchen. He got up, rubbing his eyes looking at the clock, it was 7 in the morning. Riku shrugged dragging himself to his dresser pulling out his clothe for the day. He walked out of his room dressed in black slacks and a white dress shirt, too lazy to button it. He walked out into the hallway, sheilding his eyes, noticing the blinds to the living room were thrown wide open, the door propped open letting a fresh breeze and light in. Riku blinked, not used to the light; it took him a bit longer to notice his CD playing on the surround sound, just loud enough to be a lullaby. It was his Apocalyptica cd one he hadn't listened to in a while. Riku continued his small exploration, his eyes adjusted to the new light. He just walked to the kitchen from he had heard the sound, and what he saw shocked him.
"What the hell..?" He watched as Zexion turned around, wearing an apron; he gave him a small smile.
"Good Morning Riku," he shifted a pan on the stove, turning the heat on, "Breakfast isn't quite ready yet.." he then put on an oven mit, going to the oven, taking out a sheet of perfectly made cookies, setting it on a hot plate. Riku chuckled to himself crossing his arms, leaning in the doorway.
"You made yourself at home," He walked up to the counter bar, taking a seat, just watching Zexion.
"Yes I did. Nice place really. Better kitchen than my last living arrangements," he smiled a bit more warmly, looking kinda funny since his face was a pretty permanant scowl. Riku half smiled, liking his new roomate, but no matter what he couldn't shake a feeling of something being wrong.
