File 04: Unexpected Arrivals » Volume 1
Error found! The time hour of the story right now is October 2009. So in the first chapter, I said October 25 but I've changed it to the 18 this time because I want to use Halloween as a special event.
One thing you guys should know as the story starts to fully take off; it will always feature both teenage and adult themes and will have different storylines. It isn't always about Kairi you know.
Starring: Kairi, Yuffie, Olette, Namine, Xion, Roxas, Sora, Hayner, Pence, Cloud, Aerith, Leon, and Rinoa. (Meet the main cast of volume 1! The rest now are recurring characters and yes-even Riku is one too)
Genre: Adventure/Romance

(Olette's voice) – "Previously on Secret Agent Kairi"
"Like my new office?" Leon asked.
"I guess someone is afraid that we'll blow our cover," Cloud said standing next Aerith.
"The Highwind," she answered. "I used to go here when I was a teenager and I know the owner really well. It serves practically everything you can get. Even sushi."
"Howdy you two," a male voice asked them. "May I take your order?"
"Cid?" Aerith asked looking at the guy.
"Well I'll be. Well if it isn't good old Aerith! Come here!" Aerith got up and gave him a hug. "What brings you back to Tsuki?"
"I'm Cloud. Nice to meet you sir," he said sticking his hand out as Cid gave him a handshake.
"Why do you not want us talking about your brother?" Yuffie asked Roxas.
"Ah mainly because he is my brother and I…"
"Always gets overshadowed by him here," Olette finished. Kairi couldn't help by feel sorry about this. She wanted to hug him and she did.
"Hey man!" Sora called out Roxas.
"My name is Kai, Kai, Kai-" Kairi was speaking weak and couldn't finish the second half of her name.
"Kairi," Yuffie finished.
"What she said," Kairi said laughing. Sora giggled.
"Namine," the girl whispered. The two stopped and stared at her as her held her head high looking at them. "My name is Namine."
"You know, this is the first time I've talk to you Namine. I've seen you in my art class but I never talked to you," Roxas told her. Like Namine did with Kairi at first, she didn't reply.
"So Namine, your officially a friend of ours." Then Kairi hugged her. Namine just sat in her seat and smiled a little.
"Friends huh?" Namine said softly.
October 26, 2009
It was another day for Kairi, Yuffie, Aerith, and Cloud. So far, it's been going great for the family and nothing has happened other than Kairi's recent encounter with Aerith's old friend, finally meeting Sora, and making a new friend of a shy girl named Namine at The Highwind. Organization XIII right now is under the radar and nothing is going on. Anyways, Aerith serves breakfast with everybody at the table and takes a seat. She had to tell Kairi and Yuffie about Leon's arrival.
"You'll never get this girls but…" Aerith stopped when both of them were looking at her. Cloud was just watching the three women while drinking his coffee. "Our boss Leon is here in Tsuki."
"You've got to be kidding me," Yuffie flipped as her egg falls off her fork.
"No," Aerith sighed. "He is here alright."
"What?" Kairi said. "Does he trust us or not?"
"Well," Aerith said taking a sip from her coffee. "Organization XIII is on high alert about us and since they don't know what or who you are. It's good to keep an eye on you because they will find information about you if we don't."
"And wouldn't it be great to have someone watch them over at school," said a male voice. The four turn their heads towards the man and see it's Leon entering their home.
"Leon?" Cloud said. "What ever happened to staying at the office?" Leon just scoffed.
"While you guys watch them over at home and other places, I'll be working at the school as one of their teachers." Kairi and Yuffie's jaws dropped.
"Say what now?" Kairi said in disbelief. She heard it but needed to say it.
"I'm going to be your biology teacher for your class Kairi," Leon replied.
"But what about Mr. Tomo?" Kairi was getting worried.
"Let's just say I made him take an offer he couldn't refuse." Leon just smiled tall and proud.
"You gave him money didn't you?" Aerith said straightforwardly.
"No I didn't," Leon said trying not to be guilty as he took a seat next Yuffie. "Pssh, what kind of person do you think I am?"
"An idiot," Aerith answered taking another sip. Kairi and Yuffie just finished their breakfast and leave the table.
"Well see ya," Yuffie said in a rush. "Come on Kairi and Cloud, we've got to go." They grab their bags; Cloud gets the car keys and leave out the door closing it.
~ Secret Agent Kairi ~
"Oh my god! I can't believe we'll be seeing him around school!" Yuffie complained in the car as she, Kairi and Cloud were going to their school.
"At least you won't be seeing him in your classes," Kairi said crossing arms and opening up the window having the wind blowing through her and hair.
"Yeah but your smart thanks to agency," Yuffie said looking outside.
"Now girls, you need to calm down," Cloud said trying to put the two at ease. "It can't be that bad to have him. Plus, your friends won't know that he knows you."
"Yeah sure but he'll make everyone know that we know him," Kairi says when she feels her cellphone was ringing. She picks it up and answers. "Hello?"
"Hey Kairi! You'll never guess where I am?!" Kairi can recognize the joy in that female voice.
"Gee Olette, I wonder where you are?"
"Right by you!"
"Huh?" Kairi was looking around the freeway for Olette but she couldn't find her. "Where the heck are you?"
"To your left!" Kairi looked to her left and saw Olette waving at her while having her phone in her ear.
"You are so lame I tell you," Kairi tells her.
"Hey! That's not nice," Olette said in a sad tone. "It's not like this will happen again."
"See ya at school Olette," Kairi said hanging up laughing as she felt the wind blowing through her. "I like doing this everytime."
Leon reaches for the door handle to the principal's office when it opens and two male students leave. "Enjoy your stay here at Tsuki High!" the principal shouted in joy. Leon wondered how Rinoa has changed. Judging from her voice, she seemed an ecstatic person and a people's person. He thought it was odd when she wasn't that type of person in high school.
"May I come in?" he asked.
"Yes sir. Are you lost?" Rinoa asked.
"No. I'm the new teacher here."
"Then come in, I always enjoy meeting a new staff member here." Leon walked across the room and took a seat in front of the girl he knew from high school but did she remember him? Who knows? Then they just started chatting and she was explaining everything about the school and everything else just to fill him in on what he is getting into. He thought some things haven't changed the last time he was here but the way the school looked, it definitely has changed.
"I'm thrilled for you to be working here Mr…" Rinoa then looked down on the paper fixing her glasses. "Leonhart? Is that right?" she asked looking back at him. "Hmm, that name does sound familiar to me."
"You don't remember me do you Rinoa?" Leon asked. Rinoa just think trying to remember anything but nothing came up.
"I'm not sure I do Mr. Leonhart." Leon just sighed.
"I'm Leon, you know from high school. Remember now?" Rinoa had a smile on her face.
"Oh yeah! I remember you were the jerk who didn't help me when I needed him!" Rinoa changed personalities and started to get mad. Bad memories flooded her mind and Leon got worried.
"Whoa! You still remembered that? We were in high school when it happened," Leon said trying to calm her down and not make things worse. "You know why I couldn't."
"Excuses. You're so-called girlfriend humiliated me at the party and you didn't do anything at all to help me but enough dwelling in the past," Rinoa said getting it together as she got up from her seat. "Have a great first day here at teaching Tsuki High." Then she was escorting him out.
"You have to let go of it Rinoa," Leon told her.
"I'll never ever forget," she said with a smile on her face and slam the door in front of him.
"She sure has changed a lot."
Namine was just sitting in her art class drawing as usual with Roxas. She didn't have friends at Tsuki High up till she met Kairi and her friends at the Highwind three days ago. Clearly she was the nobody of the school and never the one to socialize with. Now things have changed and her and Roxas have been talking to one another but she still maintain her shyness. Roxas would do most of the talking and she would just listen like right now.
"I've always wondered why did I take this class?" Roxas asked himself and Namine wouldn't respond. "Come on Namine, say something at least. It's been me the whole time. What's been going on with your life?" he asked. Namine didn't really want to respond and just looked down at her feet.
"Um… I," she was stuttering again but Roxas didn't mind it. He just wanted her to break out of her box a little but that could take a while.
"Look," he said holding her hands. Namine just blushed and looked away from him. She didn't want him to see her right now. "I know your really shy but you can talk to me about anything. After all, we're friends remember?" Namine just nodded.
"Well I like to draw," she said. Roxas just smiled.
"I can already know. I've seen some of your work already. You showed Kairi, Olette and I some of it yesterday," Roxas told her. "It was a Sunday and we were at the Highwind."
"Right. Sorry, um, I like listening to music," she sheepishly replied. "I listen to any kind."
"Cool," Roxas said lying back on his chair. "I must say you're really a nice girl. How come you never talk to anybody?"
"I guess it's because I like being in my own little word," Namine said in a soft tone.
"You should get out of your comfort zone and explore. It can be like an adventure for you."
"I don't think I can do that."
"I'm sure you can." The bell then rang. "I guess that's the bell." Roxas got up from his chair grabbing his bag and stop by the door. "You coming for lunch?"
"No thanks Roxas but thank you anyways," Namine replied putting her things in her shoulder bag.
"See ya around then." Roxas waved bye and Namine puts on her bag and just sighs and smiles.
"I've actually talked to Roxas. Just the two of us," she said in joy but soft. "This could be a nice start." With that, she left holding her binder having a smile on her face.
~ Secret Agent Kairi ~
Roxas enters into the cafeteria and sees Kairi and Olette eating already eating with him. "Those two!" He walked to them and just took a seat. "Thanks for eating without me girls." He also saw the two new guys with them. "Hey Hayner and Pence. How's your first day?"
"Fine," Hayner and Pence answered at the same time.
"Olette was hungry including these two boys and I told them to wait for you and Namine," Kairi said and checked to see if Namine was with him but she wasn't. "Hey, where is she?"
"She said she didn't want to come," Roxas answered taking some of Olette's French fries.
"Come on Roxas," Olette said nudging him. "Use your charms to bring her." Roxas just playfully pushed her laughing including Kairi. "What? Who knows, maybe she can even like you."
"I've just met the girl."
"Whose this girl?" Pence asked trying to play along with Olette.
"Her name is Namine and you and Hayner would've met her if somebody," Olette said looking at Roxas. "Brought her to lunch."
"Hey guys!" Kairi turned around to see Sora standing in front of her. Kairi was becoming her usual self now that she is getting used to everything except for the whole Sora thing. "Mind if we sit?" Nobody actually responded. It was a short pause with Kairi staring at him. "Um, are you guys alive?" Olette kicked Kairi under the table silently except she missed and kicked Hayner instead.
"Hey!" Hayner yelled.
"Sorry." Olette tried again and hit Kairi this time.
"Yes we're alive. We don't mind if you sit," Kairi answered rubbing her leg mouthing to Olette that it hurt and she replied mouthing sorry. She also noticed another girl with him. She had short black hair and was wearing the school uniform as usual.
"So Kairi right?" Sora asked.
"Yep."
"How long have you've been here?"
"Only a week but I've gotten used to everything now. Better than being in home schooled."
"Home schooled?" Sora said taking a piece of his sandwich. "You're whole life you've been schooled up till now?"
"Yeah," Kairi replied. Sora ate the last piece of his sandwich and threw it in a nearby thrash. "So whose your friend?" Sora then looked at the girl by him.
"Her name is Xion," he answered. "It's her first day at school actually."
"New student huh? I know how it feels," Kairi said eating from her bento with chopsticks.
"It's alright," Xion replied. "I have Sora to guide me and I must say he has introduce me to a lot of people."
"Sora! What are you doing with these people?!" said a snobby girl voice. Everybody turned around to none other than she Selphie. "You don't belong with them!" Kairi just rolled her eyes and got irritated. The past days, she has been getting irritated with her of their encounters always judging her and her friends.
"It's okay Selphie, their with me," Sora replied.
"Oh I know," Selphie said keeping up with her snobby voice. "But I said you don't belong with them!" Olette cringed at her voice and Roxas couldn't stand it. "There below us and your brother, well, I don't know about your brother. He had the chance to be one of us."
"Thank god I am not," Roxas whispered not looking at her.
"What was that?" Selphie asked.
"Nothing," Roxas replied. "Can't you just let us eat our lunch in peace?" he said all groggy.
"Whatever," Selphie said turning around. "Girls!" Her three followers then followed as they walk away.
"I can't stand her!" Kairi complained. "Why do you hang out with her?"
"Selphie?" Sora said looking back at Selphie. "I don't hang out with her. Plus, I don't even like her. Not the way she just treats you guys."
"I thought she was nice when I met her," Xion replied and all of them eyed her. "Don't worry, I don't like her now. She is some drama actress."
"Got that right," Pence said eating from his tray. "Hayner and I are in some of Kairi, Olette and Roxas's classes and she just treated me like crap. Some welcome from the so-called popular girl."
"I didn't like her the first time I saw her," Hayner added. They just went back to eating their lunch and Kairi was looking for Yuffie but she didn't show up. She saw her first period but then didn't see her after recess also.
"Hey you guys," a soft female voice said. Kairi saw Namine standing behind Roxas and everyone looked at her. She can tell Namine didn't like being eyed at since she was looking down. "Can I sit?" Olette moved on over and Namine sat between her and Roxas.
"You came," said Roxas excited for her.
"Yeah," she said smiling.
"I just noticed," Pence said. "We're one big group of people." Kairi looked at everybody and noticed it too. She was happy to meet such great people but still wondered where Yuffie was.
"This meeting is so boring," Yuffie thought hiding in the air vents. She was sent alone to eavesdrop on Organization XIII but nothing good has come up. The meeting wasn't even about their plans. It was about the organization itself. "You think they would've mention something about illegal experiments or something."
~ Secret Agent Kairi ~
Kairi was waiting at the bus stop with Namine for the bus since Cloud or Aerith could not pick her up due to a meeting. Olette was staying after school for the upcoming Halloween dance. She wanted to bring Namine to her house to just hang out and stuff. They were in front of the school and Yuffie would usually be with her by now when school ended but she still hasn't return from wherever she was. The two just waited and didn't know when the bus would come. Then a car stopped in front of them and the window rolled down.
"Do you guys need a ride?" Roxas asked. He was with his brother in the car. It was a nice sliver Acura TSX in front of her. Kairi was thinking if they should get a ride since she didn't want to wait around for the bus to come.
"Yes. We don't want to keep waiting for the bus," she said getting up and opening the back door with Namine getting in first and then her as Sora drove off.
"Doesn't your dad always pick you up?" Roxas asked.
"Yeah but my mom and him have a meeting and I have to take the bus and I don't know where Yuffie is," Kairi replied. "I should tell my parents to teach how to drive so I can get a car."
"You should, its not that bad," Sora told her.
"Not that bad," Roxas said looking at him. "You nearly caused when you first drove on the freeway." Kairi looked to see she was on the freeway.
"Should Namine and I be worried?" Kairi asked getting paranoid while Namine chuckled.
"No, you'll be fine after all," said Sora looking at Roxas. "At least I didn't almost crash the car into a tree."
"Hey! You know how dad is. He can be tense sometimes."
"Right right," Sora said. "I'm sure he was. Anyways, where do you live Kairi?"
"The outskirts of the city. I'll tell you the way."
"Okay, are you two going to the Halloween dance this Saturday?" Sora asked.
"Yeah, I've never been to one. Even Namine. Its like we're always doing things for the first time together," Kairi answered. "I don't know who to go as though. Maybe some witch or something."
"What about you Namine?" Roxas asked. No response. He looked behind his seat to see her just looking out in the distance. "Hello, Namine?"
"I'm sorry what?" she said snapping out of her little world.
"I asked what are you dressing up as?"
"I don't know. I've never thought about it."
"Don't you have to bring someone with you?" Kairi asked.
"Not really," Sora answered. "You can bring yourself and hope to find someone or go in a group. Why? Are you wanting to ask someone?"
"Um." Kairi was getting nervous. She didn't want to ask Sora and wasn't capable of handling these kind of situations. What should she do? "Did anybody ask you?" Kairi was just thinking what did she just I say.
"Are you asking me out Kairi?" Sora asked dumbly. Roxas just sighed. In Kairi's mind, she would be jumping around all happy non-stops but she remained calm. She just had the urge to say, "Yes Sora. I am."
"Then it's a date," he said as Kairi just wanted to scream in joy but she couldn't.
"Now all we need is for Namine here to have a date," Kairi said looking at her friend.
"Huh?" Namine was just in bit of a shock when she heard that. She can never get a date especially for her reputation. "I'll just go with you guys. I can never get a date."
"Don't be like that Namine," Kairi told her. "We'll find you one."
"Why don't you go with her Roxas?" Sora suggested, which totally caught Roxas off guard.
"Say what now?" Roxas took his feet off the car interior and sat back normal. Unknown to the three of them, Namine was smiling and blushing bright red.
"Go with Namine Roxas," his brother said. "It'll be lovely to escort her."
"I don't know," Namine said. "What am I saying? Say yes damn it!" she thought. "Do you want to?"
"Do you-"
"Yes!" she said quickly before Roxas could finish. Kairi was noticing Namine's unusual behavior. She wasn't shy right now seeing she just said yes fast when Roxas was gonna ask her and he didn't have time to finish. Could it possible that she had feelings for him? Maybe she even liked him for the longest time but no one would ever get to notice it.
~ Secret Agent Kairi ~
"Crap! I just had to take a bite out of my granola bar!" Yuffie was running away from trouble. Apparently she got caught and the Organization XIII chased after her sending in some guards to get her. She was running through the hallways finding a way out of the area. She was in some old building, there had to be an elevator. Guards were appearing out of nowhere of each corner and Yuffie would beat them up.
Then one guard grabbed her from behind. "Let go of me you pervert!" She was struggling when a knife comes at her head but dodges it killing the guard.
"Why can't you hold still?!" a snobby voice said. Yuffie pulled her pre-fuma shuriken squeezing it as it turned into a bigger one deflecting off the other knifes.
"You're a pain!" The girl was quick and was in front of Yuffie already. Yuffie back flipped kicking her back to the ground.
"Whoa ho!" Yuffie ran off. "See ya next time!" she shouted when she spots an elevator. She presses the button and the hallway was only one direction. Footsteps could be heard in the distance and she rapidly kept on pressing it. The doors finally open and get inside. The doors closed when a card almost struck her and it was in the wall. The person must have skills to do that. "What is with these people!?" Yuffie took the card and put in her pocket putting away her weapon when she felt the elevator shake.
"Gotta get out of here!" Yuffie climbed out of the elevator and see she is almost to the top. She jumps from wall to wall and managed to get on the ledge. She shimmies to the closed doors when the elevator she was in falls all of a sudden. "Thank god I didn't stay in there." She opens the door to find herself on top of a building. There was nowhere else to go.
"Man do I wish they should've said Kairi could come with me," Yuffie said to herself.
"Up here!" a man shouted. Yuffie looked around her environment to find anything useful but nothing. She was looking around till she noticed she had a grappled gun the whole time forgetting about it. Going up to the ledge, she takes it out pointing it to the other building and pulls the trigger. "How the heck does this work?"
"There she is!" a female voice called out from.
"Oh boy. Here goes nothing!" Yuffie just ran off the ledge and used her grapple gun as a swing when she could've just pulled the trigger again. She was swinging between the two buildings when she pulls the trigger again knowing she was going up. "So that's how you do it! How cool is that." When the line reaches its limit, Yuffie gets onto the rooftop of the other building. She saw the organization members on the roof looking at her and walks away till she heard shots being fired making her run.
"You made her get away Xigbar!" the man yelled. "You suck at aiming!"
"We'll get her next time," the female said. "I have a score to settle with her."
"Now now Larxene," a red headman said trying to calm her. "Don't need to get mad. Just breathe in and out or take your frustration on something else. Got it memorized?" Larxene just shrugged him off.
"Shut up Axel!" she yelled walking away from the scene.
"Axel, remember she's on her period," Marlxia told him and both of them just chuckled.
"I heard that!" Larxene yelled in anger as the two continued laughing.
Yay! Kairi asked out Sora and the revelations of Namine's feelings are opening up. Sorry if I sounded kind of rushed by adding Hayner, Pence, and Xion into the story but I did have plans adding them in. Also, while Riku hasn't appeared yet, he'll come around some of chapters this volume.
And another thing, it's important to pay attention to the adult's past, even though you don't fully understand it, because there will be a special chapter that will dedicated to them one day.
Thanks for reading this chapter and review please!
