Roxas was following where he saw, or assumed, where Sora had crashed down. While Riku, still shaking off being frozen, already knew where Sora was by sensing him. Xion was by his side as they moved down the road.
"I'm gonna freeze him when we find him" Xion said as Riku nodded
"I like that idea" he said as he something went off in his head. Almost like a beacon, meaning Sora was really close. Looking at the building in front of him his mouth went a gap as Xion looked at him curiously
"What?" she asked as he looked at her
"I think he's in there" he said as Xion went wide eyed
"There is no way he's in Kairi's house" she said as Riku closed his eyes and took a breath as he concentrated. It helped intensify his sensing power. His head turned to the direction of where Sora was and under his eyelids, where there was normally just black, he saw a blue aura in the house.
"He's there" he said pointing with his eyes still shut
"That's Namine's window" Xion stated as he opened his eyes and and groaned shortly
"Yeah… come on" Riku said, Xion noting the unenthused way he said it.
With Roxas
Following the small smoke trail, Roxas found the small crater that should've held Sora. But it did not. Looking around it he found some footprints in the sand. They were heading away from the crater so it had to have been Sora. He then decided to follow them to wherever they would lead.
Back at Kairi's house
Sora was still unconscious on Namine's bed as Kairi looked at him while Namine stood guard by the door.
"We gotta hide him" Kairi said
"Yeah, your grandma was serious about hurting him" Namine added
"I'm thinking we can get him to the island, no one goes there that much anymore except me and him" Kairi said as Namine brushed some dirt off of Sora as Sora took in slow breaths like he was sleeping. Kairi couldn't help but smile at the cute way he slept, remembering the countless nights that she would be brushed up next to him feeling that breath hit the top of her head. Namine could see the smile on Kairi's face and couldn't help but giggle "What?" Kairi asked
"Even asleep Sora is making you smile" she answered as Kairi chuckled
"Don't judge me, Roxas makes you smile by just playing with his hair a little" she said as Namine blushed at the thought, as silly as it was it was true. Just then they heard a tapping at the window. Kairi and Namine's gazes both were drawn to it but Namine went to it first because she was closer, opening up she almost jumped back when she saw Riku come in with Xion in tow
"Riku?" Namine and Kairi said as he pointed his Keyblade at Sora, shocking Namine and making Kairi flinch and try to pull Riku's blade away from Sora
"Riku what are you…!?"
"Triple blizzaga!" he said as he aimed, rather well even given that Kairi was trying to pull the blade away, at Sora's hands and one of his feet. Causing Sora to wake suddenly and almost yell if Xion hadn't covered his mouth to muffle him. As soon as he stopped Xion took he hand off him
"Hope that feels as bad as it looks" Xion said as Namine and Kairi were both shocked and fighting back going hysteric at Riku
"What the heck are you doing?" Kairi said angry but trying to stay quiet to not alert her grandma
"How did I get here?" Sora asked, a lil in pain by the ice on him, as Xion and Riku looked at him
"It doesn't matter, look your staying on this world Sora. You can't run away from your problems" Riku said as Kairi stepped away from the door
"What are you guys talking about?" She asked as Xion looked at her
"Sora ran away 2 days ago because he doesn't want to be a daddy" she said as Kairi looked at him
"What?" she asked him, clarifying if this was true. But looking in his eyes, she could tell it wasn't true
"Kairi, that's not true I swear" he said as Kairi knew just by the tone of his voice that he wasn't lying.
"Don't lie to her Sora" Riku said as Kairi looked at him
"He's not lying" Kairi said as Riku looked at her sternly
"He did run away, I chased him into space and brought him back"
"Kairi that's true, but It's not because of what Riku's saying" Sora said
"Be quiet already" Xion said, rather coldly, as Namine snapped at her
"Don't be so mean to him, he has the right to explain himself" Xion looked at her
"You know Sora, you know how much of a liar he can be" Xion said
"Yeah but he doesn't lie about stuff this serious" Kairi said jumping into their argument
"Why couldn't you two just leave me be? I was going to come back" Sora said as all eyes went back to him
"And how would we know that? Was there any guarantee that you would?" Riku said as Kairi got mad at him
"I can't believe you just said that, Sora might do some dumb things sometimes but he'd never do anything to hurt someone he cared about!" She said slightly raising her voice
"Kairi don't you want him here!? Don't think you think he should be here for you" Riku said slightly raising his voice as well
"Uh guys we should probably keep it down" Namine interjected but they both ignored her
"Of course I do, but in case you haven't noticed my grandmother wants to hurt him for what's happened" she said as Sora and Xion just watched the two go back and forth
"I know what'll happen and she shouldn't hurt him at all, but don't you think he should be here to take responsibility? You know admit to what he's done"
"He's not denying anything that's happened" Kairi said getting angrier
"Yeah but don't you think if he wasn't denying anything that he should take the consequences of his actions" Riku said now yelling
"Riku settle down" Xion said trying to interject, even she starting to see this was going overboard. It was weird to her because this didn't seem like Riku to get so mad over this. Sure he would get involved and be a little mad at Sora running away but this just seemed like he was going a bit far for no reason
"Would you want to get a beating from someone that you know you can't defend yourself against!?" she said as Riku tried to think of something to say back but he had no answer, but Kairi wasn't done "Not everyone has to be like you and Namine when it comes to this" she said as Namine and Riku gasped as Xion looked at Kairi
"What does that mean?" she asked
"Kairi don't you dare" Riku said
"Namine is pregnant with Riku's child" Kairi said bluntly as both Namine and Riku went wide eyed
"Kairi!"
"What!?" Xion gaze locking on Riku
"No way!" Sora said
"It's true they went to see a doctor not too long ago and it's true she's preganant" She said
"Kairi shut up!" Namine yelled on the verge of tears at Kairi. As while all the fighting went on, Kairi's door creaked open. Everyone's eyes went to it, and Namine's heart sank at who was at the door. Kairi's grandma and Roxas, Kairi's grandma looking mad as ever and Roxas looking like something had broke inside him.
"Roxas…" Namine said as she began to cry. Roxas' fists tightened as he shook with mixed emotions, none of them good, as he bolted off. Namine ran after him with Xion coming too. As Kairi's grandmother took a step forward into her room
"Grandma no!" Kairi pleaded as she put herself infront of Sora, but Kairi's grandma pushing her out of the way, Riku trying to pull her back but receiving a hard smack to the face as he tried to grab hold of her. Sora looked very scarred as the angry grandmother approached him hand raised. Sora squirmed as she was ready to bring it down when she gasped and clenched her chest
"Yugh… yuhhh…" she yelped as she collapsed to the ground
"Grandma!" Kairi yelled as she crawled to her on the floor, she was breathing but faintly, Kairi waisted no time in breaking out her phone as Riku laid on the floor, his face stinging, as Sora tried his hardest to break out of the ice restraints to try and get to Kairi to comfort her.
With Roxas…
He was storming through the island back to his house as Namine and XIon tried to catch him.
"Roxas wait!" Namine said through tears
"Roxas!" Xion yelled as they approached his house. Roxas summoned one of his keyblades and struck it to the air as a barrier formed around the house for a brief moment, but Long enough for Namine and Xion to hit it. When he entered his house, the image of a keyhole glowed on the front door showing that he had sealed his whole house. Once the refelga spell dissipated, Namine ran to the door and started banging on it
"Roxas please we need to talk please" she wailed as Xion began to yell to
"Roxas let us in!" She yelled but got no response, the two kept at this for the next hour and yielded no results. Namine had actually passed out crying at his door step, while Xion had hurt her throat from yelling so much for Roxas to let them in. Xion took upon herself to take Namine home, it was to some degree her fault that things unfolded as they did. To her she felt like she had just destoried a relationship and friendships.
