Chapter 12: The Truth Comes Out
Everyone looked at her, a mixture of sorrow and guilt on their faces. At this point she could no longer hold back all of her rushing emotions anymore. Kairi fell to her knees and tears began flowing freely down her face. It pained Riku so much to see her like this. To him she seemed so helpless, which honestly in this case they all were.
None of them had a clue as to where Xemnort could have taken Sora. Heck! They didn't even know where to start looking. Xemnort could have taken Sora anywhere among the hundreds of worlds out there.
When Riku thought about that fact he too got the same feeling of hopelessness that Kairi had. He got up and walked over to the sobbing red-head. She looked up at he and before Riku knew it her arm where wrapped tightly around his waste and her face was buried in his chest. "W-w-what a-are w-w-w-we g-going to d-do?" she asked or at least tried through her teary eyes and now stuffy nose.
"I don't kno-" Riku began to answer but was interrupted by the king. "Don't worry I've called a couple people who I know can help us!" he said trying to calm Kairi down. Everyone, including Donald and Goofy, turned to him with a look of confusion. "And who would that be?" Roxas asked. "You'll see, they should be here soon-" he replied before a door shaped image made of light appeared in front, nearly blinding, the group.
When the light finally faded two people stood before them. The one to the left was a tall girl. She had light blue hair that was styled the same as Kairi had about a year ago. She wore a no-sleeve black shirt that was tucked into a short white skirt. Under her skirt were tight black shorts. Two purple straps formed an 'X' across her chest and white fingerless gloves which came up to the woman's shoulders. Her feet were covered by high-heeled sneakers and black socks which ended just above her ankles.
The man was a head taller than the woman was. His hair was almost the same as Riku's only it ended at his shoulder and three strands of his bangs sticking straight up. He was very muscular in his tight, short-sleeve black shirt. Just like the woman he had two straps that formed an 'X' over his chest, only his were red. His pants were tan and slightly baggy on him. Black boots could be seen covering his feet. The man had a black wristband on each wrist.
The strangers looked over and at the sight of the king bowed. "Humph" Roxas remarked crossing his arms over his chest. He could not stand everyone's loyalty to the mouse king, though he wished he didn't when Namine's elbow made contact with his rib cage. "Ow! What was that for?" he hissed but quickly withdrew and covered his mouth. Namine let out a small giggle then regained her serious expression.
"Everyone" King Mickey began "This is Terra and Aqua." he addressed the newcomers. "I called them because I believe that they can help save Sora, and defeat Xemnort." the two turned to the rest of the group and bowed to them. "How can they help us?" Kairi asked through sobs.
A wide grin spread over Aqua's face and a smirk on Terra's. They both held out their arms and key blade appeared in both of their hands. Everyone's eyes, minus the kings widened at the sight of the blades. "I'm sure we'll find a way" Aqua spoke.
"Their key wielders!?" Donald exclaimed. "Yes, and they have much more experience." Mickey assured him. Kairi walked over to them and held out her hand. Aqua took it and they did a quick shake and the same with Terra. "Hi, I'm Kairi." she had managed to stop crying. Riku walked up beside her and shook the fellow wielders hands. "Riku" was he introduced himself.
Aqua glanced over Kairi's shoulder to where Roxas and Namine were. Kairi turned in that direction and followed her stare. "Oh, this is Roxas and Namine." she introduced the two nobodies. Namine gave a weak smile and a small wave. Roxas lifted one hand and gave a little wave; the other remained across his chest.
Aqua ran over to them grinning widely. She bent over so she was face to face with Roxas, who gave a look of confusion and a slight blush. Then she looked over at Namine who gave her an equally confused look. Aqua stood straight up with a sad smile. "You're both nobodies aren't you?" she watched their expressions go from confused to shocked. She turned to face the others and they too looked shocked, except Mickey and Terra who looked rather calm.
Namine finally regained herself enough to speak. "How did you-" she was cutoff when Aqua raised her hand as a motion to silence her. "I can just tell" she still had that sad smile as she glanced once more at Roxas. This did not go unnoticed by the nobody, but he decided to wait until they were alone to ask.
When she saw Roxas look back at her she quickly turned around and walked over to the king; her expression serious. "Back to business." she ordered strictly. "Right" the king agreed and Terra turned so that he was face-to-face with the mouse. "Xemnort is back" he began. "What did you say!?" Terra exclaimed. Everyone turned to him wide-eyed and confused.
"You heard me, Xemnort is back." Mickey repeated. Even though their backs were turned away from the others they could tell that he angry and only Aqua and the king would know why. Aqua put a hand on his shoulder to calm him down and looked down at the king again. "Please continue your majesty." she said.
"He's attempting the same thing he tried ten years ago and it's our job to make sure he fails once more." and as if it was a second thought he added "hopefully this time we don't loose the heart he's chosen." and with that said Kairi and Riku looked at him with questioned looks.
"What exactly do you mean?" Riku asked, worry present in his voice. Mickey looked down with a sympathetic look "Last time…we couldn't get to him in time…and as it turns out a certain heart, not just any pure hearts, but one that stands out among the others." Riku walked over to him and looked down at the mouse. When the king looked up he could see the anger in Riku's stare and decided to just say it. "He had already stolen the heart and we were unable to retrieve it!" he shouted.
"If that's the case then we can't waste anymore time." Roxas said walking over until he was beside Riku. "We better get moving before anything happens to Sora" everyone nodded in agreement and he walked back over to Namine and helped her up. "Okay then, lets get moving." and they entered the Gummiship without another word.
-_-_-_-khkhkhkhkhkhkhkhkhkhkhkh- Later on--kh2kh2kh2kh2kh2kh2kh2-
The Gummiship had been set to auto pilot and everyone was told to get some rest. It seemed like the king, Aqua, and Terra knew exactly what they were doing. As soon as the Gummiship left the island all they had to do was set the coordinates and go.
Roxas was having a hard time resting. All he could think about was what the king said about being too late last time. But, what really made him think was the sad look that Aqua had given him when they met. Now that he thinks about it Terra didn't make eye contact with at all! "What's with those two?" he asked himself, lying on the bed looking up at the ceiling.
After five whole minutes of wondering he finally had enough. He got out of bed and, as quietly as he could, made his way to Aqua's room. She was just down the hall to the right so it wasn't hard to find his way. As he reached out for the door handle he heard what sounded like Kairi in the next room. He tip-toed across the hall and cracked open the door just enough to see inside.
Kairi had her back facing him and seemed to be asleep. "Maybe it was just-" he whispered to himself until he heard Kairi speak. "Lazy bum" she muttered with a small laugh. "I know you'll come back…Sora" and she once again fell silent. Roxas gave her a sympathetic smile and closed the door. "So she's dreaming about Sora." Roxas stated more the asked.
After a moment he snapped back into reality. 'Right' he told himself and knocked softly on Aqua's door. He heard a moan and then the door opened to reveal a very tired looking Aqua. "What do you what this late, Ven?" she asked obviously overcome by sleep. "Huh?" Roxas looked at her confused and shocked. 'Wasn't that the name of the guy from Sora's-' his thoughts were cut off when Aqua realized he mistake.
"Oh! Roxas I'm sorry I didn't-" she took a deep breath and calmed back down. "Anyway, what did you need?" she asked blushing slightly. "I just wanted to ask you a few things" he said and Aqua opened the door wider to let him in. He took a seat on the bed and Aqua sat down right beside him. "What do you want to know?" she asked.
"Why…when we first met you gave me such a sad look?" she turned her head as to avoid making eye contact. "You…" she began, debating with herself to tell him the truth or not. "Please I have to know…and why did you call me Ven?" he begged. With a sigh she told him the truth. "You look just like an old friend of ours, Terra and I. His name was Ventus and he was very kind. He was the youngest one of us the wield a keyblade, but he was far from weak." she glanced over at Roxas and smiled. "Ven was originally from…Destiny Island." Roxas's eyes widened. "So he was-" Aqua finished for him "Sora's big brother" Roxas's eyes fell to his feet. "That's why you look like him" she explained. "Sora and Ventus are related by blood so when Sora lost his heart both a piece of him and pieces of Ven were left behind to form you." her smile faded.
"I see" Roxas finally knew why it was Sora Xemnort needed. "It was Ven's heart that Xemnort used wasn't it?" he said flatly. "Yes" came the short reply. "There was something about Ven that was different from previous chosen ones. I'm not sure what it was but nine years ago I went to check up on Sora for him and…I felt the same thing in him."
She stood up and walked to the center of the room, back still turned. "I won't let what happen to Ven happen to Sora too!" she declared. Roxas got up and walk to the door and before he closed it he said "Neither will I." and returned to his room. Aqua smiled slightly and returned to bed.
'Ven…' she thought before sleep overwhelmed her senses and she fell asleep.
