Thirteen years later...
Skye Hart was asleep in his bed one warm morning in June of 2028. It was the first official day of summer vacation. He had just completed his final year in middle school and was about to become a high school freshman in September. He had the window open and a warm breeze blew into his room. Suddenly, he awoke to the sound of someone blowing a whistle REALLY loudly.
"AHHH!" screamed Skye as he fell off his bed and onto the floor. He hit his head when he landed.
"Ow..." mumbled Skye as he rubbed his spiky auburn head. He heard the sound of someone giggling. He looked up and saw his twin sister, Kari, standing in front of him.
"Hee hee!" she laughed, sounding like her mother at that age. Skye also sounded like his father when he was around fourteen. "Skye, you lazy bum! Mom and Dad want you up!"
Skye crawled up to his bed and sat on it. He turned to his bedside and saw that it was 8:05. "First day of summer vacation and this is all the sleeping in I get to do?"
"Mom wants you to finish cleaning out the garage." continued Kari, walking around the large bedroom. It used to be her room, also, when she was born because she shared it with Skye so that Sora and Kairi could keep a better eye on them, but when she turned three, Sora and Kairi let her move into the extra bedroom and it's been her room ever since.
"Stupid garage!" muttered Skye drowsily.
"Hey, you're lucky." said Kari. "Mom originally wanted you to mow the lawn, but the lawnmower's broken. Dad had to take it to the repair shop."
"But they know that I wanted to go to Tilmitt's Smoothie Shop with Yuki and Bryan!" protested Skye.
"Not until the garage is cleaned." said Kari, twising a strand of her long brown hair with her finger.
"Oh yeah? And what is Mom making you do?"
"She made me clean up the living room." replied Kari. "Bryan left an old ice cream carton behind the couch after you guys had an ice cream fight."
Skye snickered. Yuki and Kai were now going to turn thirteen right after Skye and Kari turned fourteen, and Bryan, Alexa's son, and his twin sister Melissa were going to turn thirteen in December. It turned out that Alexa had also been pregnant when Ryo became a mother. Indeed, there were three sets of twins, and they were all best friends, but Skye was the closest to Yuki and Bryan. Yuki was a female version of her father, Riku. She was opinionated and she wasn't afraid to keep anything silent. And she had a love for burritos. Hurky herself was a mother but she had a son named Seth who was brown haired and hazel eyed. However, Hurky was divorced and she normally had Seth year round, he was going to spend the summer with Hurky's younger brother, Louie, since he became interested in learning about peacocks and wanted to see his mother's siblings.
"Can you leave so I can get dressed?" asked Skye.
"Alrighty, but be downstairs as soon as possible!" said Kari. Then, she put her whistle in her pocket and sauntered out of the room.
Skye sighed, feeling really irritated. Kari was always bossy. He wished his father never gave Kari that whistle. Kari was always annoying her older brother with that dumb whistle.
He put on a blue bodysuit similar to the one Sora used to wear in KH1, a long sleeved hoodie, and his blue and white shoes and went downstairs, where Kairi was talking on the phone. Kari was eating cereal, and Sora sat at the table, typing on a laptop.
"What are you doing, Dad?" asked Skye.
"Sending a birthday greeting to your Uncle Ethan." said Sora. "He gets really whiny if no one sends him a birthday card."
Skye laughed. Suddenly, a man wearing a navy blue short-sleeved button down shirt, pants, and shoes walked in. He had long silver hair that was tied into a ponytail.
"Hey, Riku!" said Kairi, who had just hung up the phone. "I just got off the phone with Hurky. She said that she got another new script ready!"
"Nice!" said Riku. He and Ryo had a talk years ago with the "mack daddies" of their TV studio about a sitcom they were talking about putting on the air. They got the thumbs up and Riku and Ryo starred in it, while Hurky quit her video game magazine job to be a writer for the show and Kairi quit her receptionist job to be the producer of the show. It was on its fifth season. It was still doing pretty well, and Hurky wasn't out of ideas. TV critics all over the universe considered Riku and Ryo to be the funniest couple on TV.
"So, what brings you here, Riku?" asked Sora.
"Hiding from Yuki." said Riku. "She got mad when I told her that I promised to take her to get burritos for lunch and then I told her that I had to run to the studio to deal with some stuff over the show!"
Skye snickered. "It's pretty sad that you have to hide from your own daughter." he said.
"Skye..." scolded Kairi.
Riku laughed. "Lay off him, Kairi. You know I also have a big mouth." he said. "I don't say very smart things myself. Like the time I almost got the show canceled six times..."
Kairi rolled her eyes. "Who could forget that?" she asked sarcastically.
"DAD!" yelled a voice.
"Oh crap, it's Yuki." Riku said. "Mind if I go hide in your laundry room?"
"Go nuts." Sora said, with his eyes glued to his laptop.
A girl with long silver hair wearing a t-shirt and shorts walked in. "Hi Mr. and Mrs. Hart. Have you seen my dad?" she asked.
"Nope. Haven't seen him." lied Sora.
"Okay." said Yuki. She turned to Skye. "Hey Skye, you ready to go, yet? Bryan's waiting at the paopu tree!"
"He has to eat first." said Kairi. "Then Skye will join you, okay?"
"Alright." said Yuki. She turned to Skye. "You know where I'll be, Skye."
Then, she walked out. Sora and Kairi sat and waited for a few minutes, then Sora yelled, "You can come out now, Riku!"
Riku walked out of the laundry room, which was next to the kitchen and sat in a chair.
"I'm just glad that she ages like I do. If she and Kai aged like their mother, I'd still be changing diapers, making bottles, and burping them until I'm dead!" he said.
Ryo aged one year every 100 years. She was currently 1,037, looking only to be about 28 and Riku was 39.
Sora laughed.
So, Skye ate his breakfast and cleaned out the remainder of the garage and went over to the paopu tree, his hangout. He found Yuki sitting on the paopu tree and Bryan, a boy Yuki's age with brown hair and green eyes, wearing a t-shirt and jeans, sitting on the edge of the small island and tossing stones at the ocean. He looked up and saw Skye approaching him and Yuki.
"Hey Skye, what took you so long?" asked Bryan.
"My mom made me finish cleaning out the garage." said Skye, sitting next to Bryan.
"Your mom's a dictator when it comes to cleaning stuff." said Bryan.
"She's just too lazy to clean it herself!" said Yuki, letting the cool ocean breeze blow her silver hair around.
"I highly doubt that." said Skye, standing up to face Yuki. "She's too busy with work and cooking dinner every night, so it's up to me, Kari, and my dad for the housework."
Yuki shrugged and stared at the ocean. Skye looked at the paopu tree and on it, was a heart carved into the wooden surface and in that heart said S.H. and K.M.It obviously stood for Sora Hart and Kairi McCormick, who were his parents.
Suddenly, behind Yuki, a small black portal opened up and a small black heartless rose up out of it.
"YUKI, LOOK OUT BEHIND YOU!" cried Skye.
"Huh?" asked Yuki as she turned behind her. She saw the heartless and screamed...
