CLAIMER: I do own the Amulet of Reanimation.
Chapter 4: The Amulet of Reanimation
We landed on our mini-island about an hour later. I looked at Kairi and smiled. "Kairi," I said. She opened her eyes and relaxed her body.
"Want to make Riku jealous?" I asked jokingly.
"Sure," she said.
"I was just kidding."
"So? Let's do it anyway." She gave me her hand and we walked off the ship. Riku was sitting by the shore eating an ice cream cone. His jaw dropped open and the ice cream dropped to the sand.
"You…and…are…?" he stuttered.
"Yes," she said.
"It was her idea," I said quickly.
"You're joking, right? You two don't belong together."
"What, you're jealous?" I asked with a grin.
"YEAH!" He yelled.
"That's good. That was our—er—her goal."
"I hate you! You knew I had my eyes on her! I WANTED KAIRI!"
"So…Yuffie is out of the question?"
"GOD N-yes, yes, Yuffie would work just fine."
"Okay, here's her number. She's probably training with Leon right now, so…you might want to wait 'til later to call her." I wrote down her number on the sand with a stick and he put it in his cell.
"I don't hate you anymore. Besides, Yuffie is way hot—" Kairi smacked him upside the head.
"Uglier—excuse me—than your girlfriend."
"Oh, Riku! What a nice complement!" Kairi said laughing as we walked away. When we got into town, I looked at the map in the train station.
"Black magic, black magic, black magic," I said. "….found it! Joe's Black Magic Antiquities, located on Island Five."
"So? What are we waiting for? Let's get that amulet!" We ran to the Island Five train and got on board as soon as it was leaving. We looked out the windows and we saw our island. Our island was uncharted, too small to have a civilization, and ignored, so we took claim to it and now it's officially ours. We even have a deed of ownership.
"We'll be getting off soon," I said, looking at Kairi, who was asleep. She woke up and yawned.
"What?" She asked sleepily. I chuckled.
"We'll be getting off soon," I repeated. The train came to a slow, screeching stop.
"Welcome to Island Five Train Station," a female voice over the intercom said.
"Alright," I said to Kairi. "Let's go get that amulet."
The city was crazy! Merchants were trying to sell random and pointless items such as a single cup of rotten milk. Yeah. I think the pollution was getting to their heads.
"Rotten milk, get you're rotten milk here!" a merchant from a store yelled. "It's useful for Black Magic, pranks, and harmful actions towards your self!"
I looked towards the shop and there it was. Joe's Black Magic Antiquities.
"There!" I said as I pulled Kairi to the shop. I stopped by the man that was trying to sell the defective milk. I looked at the shelves and I saw nothing. No amulets, no rings, no books, nothing. The shelves were completely empty.
"Can I help you?" the man asked in a very raspy voice.
"Um actually—"
"Yes you can," Kairi interrupted me.
"With what?"
"Do you have the Amulet of Reanimation?"
"Indeed I do," he said, gesturing toward his neck.
Oh, no, I thought. He's dead.
