Chapter 1: Destiny Islands Part 1

-10 years later-

Sora blink as he awoke from his sleep. He had quite the dream just now, although it hadn't made any sense. Yawning, he prepared to lie down once more. He jumper when he saw Kairi looking down at him, "Whoa!" He quickly flipped over to see Kairi giggling at him, "Give me a break Kairi." "Sora, you laxy bum! I knew that I'd find you snoozing down here~" Kairi smiled.

"No, this huge black thing swallowed me up! I couldn't breathe, I couldn't-! Ow!" Sora started, but was interrupted as Kairi hit him on the head. "Are you still dreaming" she asked? "It wasn't a dream! Or was it...I'm not sure..." Sora said as he looked down slightly, trying to collect his thoughts.

Him, Kairi, and Julia were all 14 while Riku was 15. Since they were older Riku's crush on Kairi was high and he really wanted to share a Paopu Fruit because of the legend it holds. The legend states if any two people share the star shaped fruit you will be together forever and never be separated.

Julia walked along the beach, however the girl didn't know where any of her friends were right now. Back with Sora and Kairi, "Hey Kairi. What was your hometown like? You know where you grew up" Sora asked? "I already told you, I don't remember" Kairi replied as she stared out at the vast ocean. "Nothing at all?" "Nothing, but I wouldn't mind going to see it."

"Me too and any other worlds out there. I want to see them all!" Sora smiled, "Me, you, Riku, and Julia!" He paused, "By the way where is she?" She's usually here by now." Julia then ran up and saw him, "Oh Sora." She smiled at him and then looked at Kairi, "Hey I'm here guys."

Sora smiled, "Good thing too Riku is probably looking for us." Kairi giggled, "He'll probably be complaining that he's the only one working on the raft." Sora then looked over and noticed Riku walking over, carrying a huge log "Ah! Riku!" "Why do I have to do all this work? Come on Sora your a guy too, you should help for once" Riku said.

Julia laughed and then looked to Sora who just had a long smile on his face and hands behind his head. Kairi watched as Riku tossed the log to Sora. Sora stumbled and fell to the ground with it. Julia glared at her brother, "Riku that wasn't very nice." Sora slowly got back up and rubbed the back of his head, "It's okay Julia. Sad part is Riku is right I need to help." He gave her his goofy grin as he put his hands behind his head once more.

Julia smiled as she turned to him and blushed. Both Kairi and Riku knew about the girls crush on Sora but of course the boy was oblivious to that fact. "Not to cut your staring at each other but we've got a raft to build" Riku said. Sora nodded excitedly, "That's right! That way we can go out there and see new worlds!"

Kairi gave Sora a list of the rest of the supplies and Julia went with him to help because she knew that he needed a partner. When the two left, the red head looked at Riku "You okay with her liking Sora because I know I am. Those two are so perfect for each other" Kairi said. Riku nodded, of course he was okay with his best friend and sister being together, that was something he really wanted to happen in the future.

Meanwhile back with Sora and Julia, the two were almost done with the list Kairi gave them. Sora kept looking at Julia from time to time and blushed slightly, "Julia I was wondering but is your hair naturally pink." The boy was curious but it was so odd to see a girl with pink hair then again Riku's hair was silver. Julia smiled at him and nodded, "Yes Sora my hair is this natural color. Sure its odd but I was born this way." The boy just nodded his head in understanding and smiled, "Well I like it."

Julia smiled because it was sweet, she also knew that Sora didn't like the other kids making fun of her hair and would always stand up for her. The only item people who were her true friends were Sora, Tidus, Kairi, Selphie, Wakka, and of course her brother Riku. Then the girl found the last but before the went back to Kairi, Julia looked at Sora once more. "Sora I had a strange dream where someone told me that I had to protect the 'key.' I was given a choice of 3 weapons a shield, a sword, or a mage staff. I chose the sword and then gave up the shield, afterwards I fought weird black creatures then I woke up."

Sora was shocked, Julia had a similar dream but his was about 'You will be the one to open the door to light' and also that he was to hold mightiest weapon of all. "Well its just a dream but then again I had a dream similar to yours but it felt so real." Julia nodded because Sora was right, her dream felt real. The rest of the time became quite silent and finally they approached Kairi, however when they did Riku was just smiling at her while Kairi was slightly a blushing mess.

"So you two together yet or what" Sora just smirked at the pair. "No Sora we are not together, Riku just said something that just made me blush" Kairi said as she turned to glare at the male. Sora just laughed then so did everyone else.

-Later that day-

Sora sat with Julia and Kairi against the tall Paopu Tree. Riku leaned against it. The group of friends always came here to watch the sunset near the end of the day. "So how far can a raft take us" Sora asked? "Who knows?" Riku shrugged as he stared out at the vast ocean, "We won't know until we try." Sora looked at Julia, "Hey are you okay?" You seem kind of quiet." The girl slowly smiled, "No I'm just tired."

Sora nodded as he laid back, he realized to late that his head was resting on Julia's lap. He blushed bright red and went to get off, "Oh! Sorry about that!" "It's fine Sora, if your tired place your head there and I won't mind" Julia smiled more. Sora was hesitated, but kept his head there, "Alright if you say so." Everyone then looked back at the sunset. Sora smiled, "I can't wait to set sail with my friends. It will be great." "Yeah it will be" Kairi agreed.

After a few more minutes, Sora and the others walked back to the docks. As they made their way across the bridge, Riku called out to Sora, "Hey Sora catch!" Sora looked and gasped as a Paopu Fruit was sent flying towards him. He quickly caught it and gasped, "A Paopu Fruit!?" Riku smirked as he walked past him, "Come on I know you want to try it with Julia." "What!?" Sora blushed. He quickly tossed it away and ran after the others to the boats.

After parting ways with the others, Sora walked Julia back to her house.

Meanwhile Riku walked Kairi home and he smiled at the girl. "Hey Kairi do you like anyone on the island. I know Sora is out of the picture because he is more like a brother to you." Kairi nodded toward him, "I do but I'm not going to tell you because it's a secret but know that this boy is a great person on the outside but his inside has doubts on things he might regret." Riku smiled because that sounded like him but its possible it may not. Kairi walking in her home, thanked Riku and left for bed. Riku walked back and kissed Julia's forehead goodnight then went to bed himself.

A/n: So how was that? This was a long chapter

Sora: Yeah and her hands are most likely hurting so until next time, bye
