Chapter four is now up! BTW, after i get to the actual adventure, this will probably go slower because i have to change some stuff from the actual story. Oh well.
Disclaimer:I do not own Kingdom Hearts, It's characters, or the basic plot of the story. I do own Kaze though.
The next day, Sora and I go back to the island to help finish the raft. We head to the other side of the island because that is where the raft currently is. There, we see Riku standing around like he's been there all day. "Hey Riku!" Sora calls out to him.
"Oh, hey Sora and Kaze," Riku says back, "I already finished gathering my provisions for the trip. In my free time, I also came up with a name for the raft. I think we should call it Highwind."
Sora seems angered by this before he says, "I wanted to call it Excalibur!"
"Like the sword?" I ask. I can't decide which name I like better, so I just stand there while Riku and Sora argue. After a few minutes I get tired of this. "Guys!" I yell, stopping their arguement, "I know how to solve this. Just race and whoever wins gets to choose the name of the raft."
"That seems fair," Sora says. Just then, Kairi walks up to us.
"A race?" she asks, "I'll be judge! Race from here, to the star tree, and back." With that, Riku and Sira are already getting ready to run. Riku says something to Sora that I can't hear and Sora looks suprised. "READY, SET, GO!" Kari yells. The race starts out with Sora in the lead, but by the time they get to the zipline tower, Riku is ahead. Sora climbs up the tower while Riku goes the longer way around. Sora reaches the tree first and is the first to get back. We were all suprised because we all thought Riku would win.
"Yes, I win!" Sora yells, "The raft is called Excalibur!" After Sora finishes gloating, we go to Kairi to ask what we need to find.
"We need one seagull egg, three mushrooms three fish, two coconuts, and fill this jug with water." Kairi lists.
'Wow, that's a lot of stuff!" I exclaim.
"Well, we'll be at sea for who knows how long, so we need a lot of stuff." Kairi explains.
"Good point." After we finished talking, I notice Sora had already left. I don't think he heard half the list, so I go to find him.
He's right where I expected. In our secret cave where we've been carving pictures on the walls since we were little. As I walk in, I notice Sora is carving something into the wall with a rock. He added to a picture Kairi, Sora and I had drawn when we were 5. It was a picture of all of us together. Sora is now adding a picture of him giving Kairi a paupu fruit. As Sora stands up to admire his work, we hear a very deep voice. I turn toward the sound to see a figure in a brown hood. "Who are you?," I ask.
"I came to see the door to this world," the figure says.
"This door?" Sora asks, "It doesn't even open!"
"This world has been connected."
"What?" Sora asks confused.
"Tied to the darkness, soon to be completely eclipsed."
"Whoever you are, stop freaking us out!" I say feeling kind of annoyed.
"You do not yet know what lies beyond the door." The person seems oblivious to our questions.
"You're from another world, aren't you?" Sora says. How he figured that out, I doubt I'll ever know.
"There is so much to learn, you understand so little."
"You'll see!" I say, "We're going to find out what's out there."
"A meaningless effort. One who knows nothing can understand nothing." With that, the hooded man disappears.
"Did you understand any of that?" I ask Sora.
"No," he answers, "that was one weird dude." I then remember what we were supposed to be doing.
"Sora, did you even hear what we were suppossed to find for Kairi?"
"Um... That would be a no." I sigh and tell him the list. We quickly find the food and report back to Kairi. I notice she's making something.
"Kairi, what is that?" I ask her.
"This?" she says, "I'm making a charm of thalassa shells. Sailors used to make them to ensure a safe journey. She puts the charm away. "I'm making one for each of us."
"Cool," Sora says, "We have a few hours until we have to leave so I think we should do what we did yesterday: Fight Selphie, Tidus, and Wakka."
"Fine, but I call Tidus. I haven't fought him in a while." I say quickly.
"Sure, I'll go find Riku to see if I can beat him today," Sora says as he walks away.
Chapter 4 is now done. Tidus will be fought in the next chapter, so I lied last time. Live with it!
