"The humans have gone mad!" said Beast with horror in his voice, "It's like they know nothing at all! Like brainwashed and stuff."
Mickey nodded, "Ok then it's settled we will stay."
The four walked back to the table where all the creatures were already fighting with each other about who would go.
"QUIET!!" roared to Beast.
There was silence. "Have you decided yet?" asked the Beast.
No one stood up or did anything.
Then Sora stood up. "I will go."
Beast started to protest but then Kairi stood up. "If he goes I will go."
Beast shook his head but then nodded. "Then, let us prepare for your trip."
They finished dinner then went up to bed. Training would start tomorrow.
Seven o'clock A.M.
The cars were rushing by quickly. The whooshing sound gave a great burst of wind.
A girl of 18 felt the wind of the cars. It felt wonderful. She was wearing a blue sweater with a butterfly on the front, blue jeans and had a black backpack.
"April!"
"Coming mom!" called back April.
She ran into the kitchen and grabbed a bagel and went out the door. "Bye mom!"
"See you tonight. Honey!"
April ran out the door and went into her blue Honda Coupe. She started the car and headed to Tokyo University.
She drove up to her parking spot.
"Yo! Ap!!!"
"What's up, Naomi?!"
"It's Mimi!"
"Right! Sorry Mimi!"
"Hey. Don't we have that orientation today?"
"Oh yeah! I think it's at the Shirokane Hall."
"Let's go then!"
The two ran to Shirokane Hall and found a seat next to a boy named Hiroshi.
"Hey Hiroshi!"
"Yo what's up babe." Hiroshi called and slung his arm around April.
"Now don't get all luvvy duvvy on me!" Naomi exclaimed. "Hey Liang! Where were you?"
"Sorry my car broke down." Liang called.
Liang slung his arm around Naomi and kissed her cheek.
"Ok now you can get all luvvy duvvy." Naomi said to April and Hiroshi.
The four of them laughed until the speaker came onto the stage.
The Hall immediately quieted. But soon the speaker system came on. "April Kimura, Naomi Narita, Liang Takahashi, and Hiroshi Watanabe please come to the main office."
The four stood up and looked at each other but still headed for the main office.
When the four were outside they met April's brother, Isamu.
"Isamu what are you doing here? You know my friends don't know you work for the FBI!" whispered April.
"Ap. Listen. One day, maybe even today, they need to know." whispered Isamu hugging her close.
"Hey what are you doing with my girlfriend?!?" yelled Hiroshi.
"Hiroshi, chill. He's my brother." April turned around and nodded at Isamu. "He works for the FBI."
"What?" Liang exclaimed.
"Why didn't you tell me Ap?" whispered Mimi.
"Oh." said Hiroshi, "Sorry."
"It's alright, but there's one question I wanted to ask Isamu, Why are you here?!?!" asked April in a calm but angry voice.
"I will explain later right now we need to get to Headquarters."
"But what about that main office call?" asked Mimi.
"That was me," said Isamu, "I told the main office that I would meet you here."
"But we only took like two minutes to get out here," said Liang, "how could you have been here to meet us in time, the main office is like on the other side of the campus."
"Like I said, I will explain later." answered Isamu before April could say anything.
The four followed Isamu into a Honda '07 CR-V.
For an hour they drove until they drove up to a high building that almost seemed like it wasn't there at all. But the four could still make out the high building in the middle of the ocean...
Two o'clock A.M.
There was a banging at the door. "Kairi get up we're gonna be late!!" It was the Beast's thick, low voice. Kairi heard a low roar, enough for her to get up and open the door.
"Get ready."
Kairi nodded. She was about to close the door when she saw Sora staring at her through his door. Kairi quickly closed her door before she could even blush.
Kairi took her hair brush and brushed out her shoulder-length brown hair.
In Sora's room at the same time he was putting gel into his hair and spiking it.
Kairi got dressed into the only clothes she had, which had been washed the night before, her straight blue shorts, a white black shirt, and a blue hoodie. Kairi's friends always thought she looked like a skate girl, but she didn't care. She loved skateboarding. That was her secret, skateboarding, even though a lot of people don't think you can get skinny and healthy by skateboarding, but you can. It you're determined and you have fun.
Sora got dressed into his black skater outfit. Sora's brother, Riku always thought he looked emo, but Sora didn't care. He loved to skateboard too.
Kairi opened her door and took her black backpack filled with food, a hairbrush, her video iPod, and last but not least her skateboard attached to her backpack.
Sora came out of his room. He too had a black backpack filled with food, gel, a comb, water (for Kairi and of course himself), his video iPod, and again his skateboard attached to his backpack.
The two nodded and walked down the hall together not aware that Mickey, Donald, and Goofy were giggling from their doors. The three of them were worried but still giggling. Or rather laughing.
Sora and Kairi met the Beast at the dining table. "You ready?" asked the Beast.
The two of them nodded.
"I'm sorry to have woken you up so early, but the journey is so long. It might even take five hours to get to the World." The Beast said.
'Wow!' Kairi thought, 'Wouldn't that be boring though? Geez five hours…'
"Ok. We have rendezvoused with the FBI in the World, so by seven 0'clock A.M. you should meet at their headquarters. Any questions?"
Kairi shot up her hand but Sora stopped it half way.
"Never mind," Kairi said.
"Follow me, I'll show you the luxurious gummi ship." Beast said.
The two of them followed the Beast into one of his deepest dungeons. Beast entered a code and the rock wall of the dungeon slid open. They entered and saw a small medium sized gummi ship. Once they entered it, it was like any other gummi ship. Except for a huge panel at the front.
"Sora you should know what to do." Beast said.
Sora nodded his head.
Beast walked outside and without looking at them said, "Once there look for a man named Isamu, his picture is on the dashboard. You should see him when you land."
"Ok." Sora said and reached out to press the button to close the door.
"I'm sorry," Beast muttered with a sad, choking voice.
But the door was already closed.
The gummi ship whirred and floated up to the opening that Beast had just opened.
Kairi and Sora stepped into the house that had appeared.
"Sooo….." Sora said, "You wanna skate?"
"How?"
Sora beckoned Kairi to come over to the panel. He pressed a black button. Then after some strange stretching feeling a skate park appeared. It was complete with gear, skates, snacks, and drinks!
Kairi just stood in awe.
Sora had already unattached his skateboard and ran to the one of the ramps.
Kairi ran and unattached her skateboard and rant to the same one Sora ran to.
Sora completed a full 360 while Kairi landed an ollie over one of the snack stands and grabbed to Blue Doritos bags.
Sora came over and took one. "Hey!!" Kairi said laughing.
They skated for about two hours.
"Hey go fill your backpack some more snacks and I'll fill mine with drinks." Sora said, "I wanna show you something."
After they filled their backpacks they skated out of the skate park. "Oh did you want anything from there? 'Cause we can always get it again."
"Okay I'll just get it later." Kairi replied.
She opened a bag of Doritos and a bottle of Gatorade. She followed Sora to the panel.
Sora pressed the black button again. Then that strange feeling again and the park was gone. Then Sora pressed a silver button. Again that stretching feeling and this time a movie theater appeared.
"Awesome!" Kairi exclaimed and ran to a seat near the top and in the middle. Sora followed with both their backpacks filled with snacks, and of course their skateboards attached to the back.
"So what do you wanna watch?" Sora asked.
"How about a movie that's from the World?"
"Reasonable enough Do you want something funny, romantic, dramatic, scary?"
"Umm…How about funny." Kairi said, "I think I need a good laugh before we get there."
"Ok…" Sora said, "Let's see, how about the Pink Panther. I heard it was funny."
"Alright put it on." Kairi said.
Sora pressed a button that was pink and the Pink Panther turned on.
They watched the movie and had a lot of laughs. After it was done there was about two hours left.
"Hey I wanted to show you this game that I played when I was young," Kairi said.
She reached into her backpack and pulled out a jump rope. She attached one end to a pole in the front yard of the house that had appeared and attached the other end to the other pole on the opposite side.
"Ok," Kairi explained, "The game is simple just jump over it. Then I'll show you another game I played with my mother."
Kairi jumped over the jump rope that was six feet above the ground. She landed it.
Sora landed his.
For awhile the two did this until the jump rope was ten feet above the ground.
Kairi had landed the ten feet. Sora landed his too.
But then on eleven feet the two gave up.
Before Kairi showed Sora the other game she grabbed her skateboard and ollied over the jump rope.
Sora did the same.
They raised the rope to twelve feet.
Both landed it.
An hour went by and the two got tired.
"So is Riku your only brother?" asked Kairi filling her backpack with snacks and drinks. Then put in the gear that she wanted.
"Yes." Sora replied, "We got separated when our island got hit."
"Oh. Is that why you're on this journey. You know when I met you."
"Yeah. I was looking for my bro."
"So what about you." asked Sora.
"What about me?"
"I mean, are you an only child?" asked Sora.
"Oh. Well I had a little sister but she died at birth." Kairi said, "But I do have an older sister. Her name is Naminė."
"Wow. Where is Naminė?"
"She ran away when my mother died."
"Oh." Sora said, "I'm sorry."
"Don't be, the reason why I came with you in the first place was to avenge my dad and find my sister."
"So I guess we have something in common." Sora said.
Then there was a light whirring sound but the two of them didn't hear it.
The door of the Gummi ship was open.
