Once Ciaren got over the shock that the actual characters of Kingdom Hearts were standing in front of her, she started to explain what she remembered from last night. Ciaren left out the part of her playing kingdom Hearts though.

"So the last thing you remember is going to sleep?" asked Sora

"Yes" she said. They kept asking their questions but Ciaren hadn't gotten to ask any of her questions.

"Now tell me, how did you find me and what am I doing here?" she finally got a chance to say.

"Well we were just going home from the islands," started off Kairi, "when this huge wave crashed into the shore."

"Ya, we thought you were driftwood a first," butted-in Sora.

"Anyway," said Kairi, throwing Sora an annoyed look, "as soon as we realized that it was a person, we rushed over but you had passed out. So we couldn't just leave you there, so Riku carried you to Sora's house."

You looked at Riku, but he wouldn't meet your gaze. You started to wonder why he wouldn't look at you.

Am I really that much of an inconvenience? Ciaren thought, she bit her lip in worry.

"Um…I just realized that we haven't gotten your name." said Sora.

"Oh I'm Ciaren."

"Cool name," said Sora, "Never heard of it before though."

"I'd be surprised if you did. My dad's name is Raven and it means darkness, my mom's name is Ciara and it means light. So they combined their names because they told me that one cannot live without the other, that we are constantly with both. They never called me it though always, CeCe, which I absolutely hated."

Sora and Kairi had looked at Riku the moment that Ciaren had mentioned how she got her name. She was confused for a second but then she remembered how in Kingdom Hearts Riku had lived in both light and darkness. She started to apologize but Riku beat her to it.

"It's okay guys," When the two still had skeptical looks he said, "Really guys it's okay, the problem now is where is she going to stay."

"Roxas said that this was the last day she could stay here, any more and he'll call our parents," explained Sora.

"I already asked Namine and she said she couldn't stay." said Kairi.

Sora, Kairi and Ciaren looked at Riku. He was her last option, because Ciaren wasn't going to leave this place for anything. It was one place that she never wanted to leave.

"Look it's okay; I don't want to be a burden. I'll go and try to find my way home." Ciaren started to get up to leave. Already figuring it would be better to go home than stay here and be a burden. She got up and walked towards the door. Right before she left someone grabbed her wrist. It was Riku, Ciaren waited patiently for him to speak.

"Come on you'll stay with me," he said, Riku started dragging Ciaren towards the door. Ciaren finally took notice of what she was wearing. It was different from her pajamas and she felt in need of a shower.

"Wait, Kairi do you have any clothes I can borrow?" Ciaren asked. Riku hadn't stopped dragging her down the hallway and now they were heading out the door.

"Sure, we'll stop at my house" She said

"I gotta leave a note for Roxas," Sora said, trying to find some paper. He found some, scribbled a note and stuck it on the door of what Ciaren assumed was Roxas' room.

This was all happening so fast; She was going to be staying in the same house as Riku, your favorite character in Kingdom Hearts. Her nervousness just intensified when she saw that Riku hadn't let go of her hand, even as they now walked down the sidewalk.
