Author's Note: Okay, so nobody is telling me what they want the setting to be. If I don't get the setting by the time I post chapter 4, then I will pick it myself. I don't mean to sound mean, but... yeah. Also, Roxas isn't exactly a jerk, he just REALLY likes Kairi. Too bad for him... *smirks and does an evil look while looking around and rubbing hands together* MWAHAHAHA!

Disclaimer:
I do not own the D.S. Lite, nintendo owns it.
I don't own Mario Kart. I don't know, but I think nintendo owns that too.
And Kingdom Hearts is not mine. If it was, Kairi would be kicking some serious heartless butt already.

Chapter 3: The Crew

Kairi read her book quietly. It was so lonely and boring in the hospital! It was Saturday, She had been in the hospital for a few days, and hopefully she would be leaving today.

"Hey hey Kai Kai!" Kairi rolled her eyes as the crew came in. The crew was what Kairi was calling Aqua, Yuffie, Sora, Roxas, and Namine.

"Hi guys! Thanks for coming, again. It is SO boring here!" Kairi said.

"Yeah, yeah." Yuffie said, tossing Kairi a D.S. Lite.

Kairi immediately started it up as the crew turned theirs on and sat in the chairs arranged around the room.

"I will kick your butt!" Kairi said, turning on Mario Kart.

"It's my turn to host!" Roxas said.

"It doesn't matter, I'm still going to kick your butt!" Kairi said.

And she was right.

"DANG IT, KAIRI! HOW DO YOU ALWAYS WIN?" Yuffie yelled, throwing the D.S. Lite against the wall and breaking it.

"Oops. Sorry, Roxas, Sora." Yuffie said, Roxas and Sora glaring at her.

All the D.S. Lites belonged to Sora and Roxas, so of course they were glaring at her.

"You people are blowing my money! That is the third one in the past two days! I'm so going to kill you, Yuffie!" Sora said, chasing Yuffie out of the room.

"It's my money too!" Roxas yelled. Sora's head poked back into the room.

"I paid for all of these! You just hold onto them because I don't have any room in my room!" Sora growled, chasing Yuffie again.

"Who do you think is going to come back with a bloody nose?" Namine asked.

"I'll pay 20 bucks if Sora doesn't break Yuffie's nose." Kairi said.

"I'll pay 10 bucks if Yuffie doesn't crush Sora." Aqua said.

"I'll pay 5 bucks if Yuffie doesn't break Sora's nose." Kairi and Aqua looked at Roxas.

"What? I'm not made of money, you know." Roxas said.

Sora came walking into the room with a triumphant smirk on his face. Yuffie walked in behind him holding her nose.

"I believe you people owe me money." Kairi said. Roxas and Aqua sighed as they each handed Kairi her money.

"15 bucks. Pretty good job for you, Kairi." Sora said, high-fiving Kairi as Aqua paid Roxas 5 bucks.

"But I could do better!" Sora continued, jumping up. He suddenly ran out of the room and Kairi sighed.

"To the window!" Yuffie cried as if her nose was not bleeding.

Kairi got out of the bed, put on her jacket, grabbed her hat, and snuck out of the room. She ran down the stairs and after Sora. She ran up to him as he grabbed his guitar and she grabbed a microphone. He started playing it, and Kairi started singing, and before they knew it, they had a lot of money.

Crowds of people had crowded around them and were now cheering like crazy. Kairi and Sora smirked as they saw the money piled into Kairi's hat.

The crew ran out and grabbed the hat. Namine immediately counted it.

"200 bucks! You guys rock!" Yuffie yelled.

"How do you think I can afford those D.S. Lites?" Sora said, looking at Kairi and smirking.

"Hey, I helped you get that!" Kairi said, nudging him playfully. Sora looked at her and grinned.

"Kairi! You can go home now! I packed your stuff, let's go!" Kairi was stunned as her mom ran by, grabbing her hand and dragging her away.

"Mom..." Kairi groaned as her friends laughed at her.


"So, if you had to, who in the crew would you date?" Sora asked Kairi as they walked to school. They had hung out on Sunday and had become really close friends since then.

"Um... I guess you. I can't stand your brother, besides, he's dating Namine." Kairi said. "You?"

"Uh... I guess I'd have to be with you, because Namine, Aqua, and Yuffie are taken. Why do I get stuck with the dork?" Sora said playfully.

Kairi jumped on his back and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Just for that insult you have to give me a piggyback ride to school." Kairi said.

"You really are a dork." Sora said, laughing.

"You two are both dorks." Roxas said as he, Namine, Aqua, and Yuffie walked up to them.

"Thank you." Kairi and Sora said simultaneously, before laughing.

"Alright, we're at school. Get off my back!" Sora said, dropping her on the ground.

"I'll kill you for that!" Kairi yelled.

"Catch me if you can!" Sora said, making faces at her before bolting down the hallway.

"She is so going to kill him." Namine said.

"Agreed." The rest of the crew said, following the two dorks.


"I need you to help me get close to Sora." Selphie said.

"What!? Why?" Tifa, one of Selphie's friends, asked.

"Because I can't stand the sight of how happy he is when he's with that Kari chick." Selphie said.

"Her name is Kairi." Yuna whispered.

"So, you want to make them both miserable?" Tifa said, ignoring Yuna.

"Yes. We also need to split up their crew. We can make Sora and Roxas popular, and take Aqua to popularity as well. That'll leave Yuffie, Kairi, and Namine to wither." Selphie said, also ignoring Yuna.

Tifa smirked as they walked down the hallway. Yuna turned and ran for her locker. Two girls stood in front of it.

"Rikku, Paine! We've got a situation!"
