Anise's Adventure

Chapter 13: Searching For Dist!

...

Kairi's POV

I was in mine and Sync's room packing things I would need on the small trip, when Alicia walked in and asked if she could come. She said she wanted to make sure I was protected, which was sweet of her, so I decided it was her chance to get some experience in fighting. I told her to pack some of her things while I carried my stuff to the Alboire, when a voice stopped me. Running over and hugging me, Shion pulled away at arms length, smiling, "What's up, girl? Hm?" She noticed my bag of stuff and frowned, "Where are you going?"

I sighed, "I have to go find Dist for Anise, Tokunaga was destroyed."

She continued to frown, "In your condition? Hell no!"

I sighed again, I knew Shion would act this way, but I had to do this for Anise. "Listen, Shion, I know it's a bad thing for me since I'm pregnant, but Alicia is coming with me, and I'm teaching her how to use her new weapon's, so it's okay."

"Seriously? That won't make me less worried! That's it I'm coming with you, whether you like it or not, Missy!"

I sweat dropped, "S-Shion...What about your wedding plans? And Peony?"

She just smiled at me, "No worries, I'll send a letter to him explaining why I'm not there and it would make him feel better if you were well protected...after all, you are going to be my sister-in-law."

I almost forgot about that, "Okay, we just need Noelle now so she can fly us to Keterburg."

"Is that where the person that knows where Dist is?"

I nodded at Shion, smiling, "Yep!"

Alicia came rushing over, surprised and happy to see Shion. She was even happier to learn that she was coming with us. We found Noelle and quickly told her what was going on. I felt bad about putting her on the spot like we were, but she didn't seem to mind. "Okay, I'll drop you three off at Keterburg and fly back to take Guy and the others where they need to go. Just be careful, Kairi, okay? Being pregnant and all...and especially in the cold...don't push yourself."

I reassured Noelle that I was going to be fine, I was stubborn when I put my mind to something. We boarded the Albiore and Noelle flew us straight to Keterburg. She landed the Albiore in the water near Keterburg's Port, and we said our goodbyes there.

We watched her take off into the sky, then started in Keterburg's direction. It wasn't long before we ran into a couple of monsters, but Shion and Alicia took care of them while I stayed back to support them and sometimes give directions to Alicia.

She was doing well with her chakrams for her first time, it was like she was a dancer with so much grace in her movements. "Hah!" Alicia threw one of her chakrams at the monster, damaging it. Shion came from behind it to finish it off.

The monster collapsed, and Shion quickly looked to see if it had anything useful on it. Surprisingly, it had a bit of Gald.

I walked over to Alicia, "I'm impressed, you did well at your first try with fighting monsters. I'm so proud of you," I hugged Alicia.

"Really? Yay!"

Shion just watched, chuckling, "I hate to break up this sweet moment, but we have to head into Keterburg before we freeze to death."

I nodded, letting go of Alicia before grabbing her hand in mine while we walked through the thick snow into Keterburg. We went straight to the Hotel to keep warm, renting one room with three beds.

"So... why are we here? Is Dist here or something?" Shion asked me curiously.

"If I'm correct, I think I know someone that lives here that could know his whereabouts. Nephry."

Shion blinked, "Oh yeah...I forgot about that. How about I go ask her while you two stay here where it's warm? I'll be back."

I nodded and stayed sitting on the bed I picked along with Alicia, who sat close too me. I put my hands gently on my stomach, which was a bump now.

I was nervous to be a mom, but knowing I had my friends and the man I loved by my side, I would be okay.

Alicia wanted to go to the spa, so I went with her. Since it was dangerous for the baby for me to spend time in hot tubs, I just put my feet in the water while sitting on the edge while Alicia sat in the hot water.

I hoped Nephry knew Dist whereabouts.

Shion's POV

I walked quickly to Nephry's place, thankful she wasn't too busy to see was surprised when I walked in, though. "Shion?"

I smiled and hugged her, "Hello, sister," I pulled away slightly. "Sorry I hardly visit, Nephry...some stuff happened, but that's not the reason I came here to see you." I felt really bad for not visiting Nephry after Asch's death, mostly locking myself in my room in Peony's castle.

Nephry frowned "Tell me Shion, what is it you need of me?"

I sighed, "Me and my friends are looking for Dist, do you have any clue of his whereabouts? It's very urgent."

"Hmm...I saw him here in town only recently."

I sighed in relief, thinking he might still be here, "Thank you, sis, I'll come and visit you as often as I can, 'kay? I promise."

Before I could leave she called my name, making me stop and turn back around to face her, "Yes, Nephry?"

"Peony sent me a letter saying he proposed too you..."

I frowned, I'd almost forgot she still had feelings for Peony. I felt so bad, but oddly she smiled and grabbed my hand's in hers, "I'm very happy you finally found that special someone, after what you went through with losing someone dear too you."

I almost wanted to tear up at Asch's mention.

"I know Peony will take care of you, sister. Just be happy...Peony really loves you dearly."

I smiled at my sister all teary-eyed "Of course, I should head back to the Hotel and tell my friends Dist might still be here. Take care, sister."

I waved goodbye to my sister and walked outside into the cold air again, then quickly to the hotel, not noticing a white figure watching from afar. The white figure disappeared just like that.

...

Alicia's POV

After an hour of swimming around in the hot water me and Kairi went back too our rented rooms, I hope Shion comes back and tells us she knows where that Dist guy is, for Anise's sake. Me and Kairi put our clothes back on, I plop on my bed I picked next too Kairi's bed when Shion walk in I sat up hoping she knows where that Dist guy is "Nephry told me Dist is still here in Keterburg but she doesn't know where exactly...we just have too look around and ask around if they seen him." she informed us, Kairi nodded standing up "Right, let's split up and search around and don't try too stop me Shion I'll have a warm jacket on me soo I'll be fine same with the baby."

Shion sigh "Fine, let's meet back here when we look for him." I handed Kairi her warm jacket, Sync got it for her so she well stay warm and the baby too. I went looking for this Dist guy at the back of Keterburg watching little kid's throwing snowball's at each other, I wish I could join them but I have too look for Dist.

An hour later, I was getting frustrated! No sign of Dist! I decided whenever I finally caught up with him I would give him a good smack for all the trouble it was taking to find him. I was about to give up and turn around to go back to the Hotel when from the corner of my eye I saw something white, so I turned my head in that direction, but there was no one there. I frowned and tilted my head slightly in confusion, "Weird...I thought I saw someone standing over there? ...Oh well, I'll just head back to the Hotel...maybe Kairi or Shion found him."

I headed back to our hotel room, and I wished I hadn't as soon as I opened the door. Right in the middle of the room, Kairi had a guy with white hair by his shirt and was shaking and yelling at him while Shion was trying too calm her down.

I thought about leaving then and there, but decided not to. "...Um, what's going on? Why is Kairi trying too shake that guy to death?"

He looked oddly familiar, I just couldn't put my finger on it. I pushed that thought aside.

"Kairi!" Shion pried Kairi away from the guy, "Will you chill out, girl?!"

The guy hiding behind Shion started yelling, "I'll remember this! I'll put it in my Revenge Diary!"

Shion turned around to smack him upside the head, "No putting my sister-in-law in that Diary of yours! Or so help me, I'll tell Jade! Or even Sync...he'll beat you to a pulp."

The white-haired guy's eyes widened and he gulped.

"Um...who's this weirdo?" I decided to speak again. They all turned to me.

"Alicia, this is Dist, the one we're looking for...now, are you able to fix Tokunaga?" Shion asked him, Kairi brought out the destroyed doll from her bag and handed it to Shion so she could show it to Dist without killing him...I wondered what I missed before I entered? Oh well, probably wasn't important.

"Hmm...I believe I can, just give me one night and he'll be brand new," we all sighed in relief, "But!"

Kairi freaked out instantly, and was going too pounce on him before Shion held her back, "No, Kairi...'but' what? Don't tell me there's a catch, Saphir? Cause I can go get brother and he'll deal with you instead of me...since I'm less...evil. Your pick."

I watched a little nervously while Shion smiled like a cat with her hands on her hips.

"F-fine! Just don't call Jade! I'll start on the doll."

I stepped aside from the door so he could walk out, closing the door behind him.

I looked at Shion and Kairi, "What are we going to do now? Just wait around?"

"Well, we can go too the Casino?"

I pouted, "Awwe! If I go, I can't do anything!" I frowned at Kairi while Shion laughed nervously.

Kairi put her hands on her hips, "Listen, Missy, I do not want you wandering around without me or Shion. So, would you rather stay here, or come with us?"

I sighed, then pouted, "Fine, I'll go with you two...but afterwards you have to train me more with my chakrams, promise?"

Kairi chuckled, "Deal, now let's go, girls."

I hoped Dist got done with fixing Tokunaga soon so we could give him back to Anise. It would be so nice to see her smile again...

Thinking of her made me wonder how the others were doing.

...

Angel: Oh my~ It seems they found Dist...but how is Anise doing with out Tokunaga for the first time? You'll just have too find out the next chapter~ winks Ciao!
