Disclaimer: Nothing has changed since the last chapter! I don't own Kingdom Hearts!
Author's Note: Namine is coming into this next chapter. Same with Riku. I already brought Sora and Kairi. I won't tell you who else is coming, but I will tell you that there will be 6 Kingdom Warriors.
Chapter 2: Sunrise
Sora's POV
I'm Sora. I've lived Kingdom of Heartland my whole life.
"Eclipse, hurry up!" I called as the evil creatures began attacking. I bet you want to hear my part of the story now too huh? Alright.
10 years ago (Normal POV)
A four-year-old Sora was walking beside his mother on their way to the daycare center. Sora's mother rang the doorbell and a lady came up.
"Hello." A teenager named Aerith said as she let them in.
Sora ran into the room with all the kids in it.
"New kid!" A black-haired girl yelled as she ran to him.
"I'm Xion." She said. "What's your name?"
"I'm Sora." He said.
"I like you! Come play with us!" She said, grabbing his hand and dragging him away. Sora's mother laughed before leaving the house.
9 years later
Sora grabbed the wooden sword from Riku's hand and sliced it at him. Riku took a sword from the ground and swung it at Sora.
Sora looked up when he heard a creak. It was just his redheaded neighbor walking out onto her balcony. Riku took his chance and used the sword to knock Sora off his feet. He pointed the tip of the wooden sword at Sora's face and smirked.
"Not fair!" Sora said.
"How is it not fair? You took a moment to look up at your girlfriend," Riku said, causing Sora to blush, "and I took my opportunity."
"She's not my girlfriend! The creak just distracted me!" Sora defended.
"Yeah, sure." Riku said, walking away and taking off down the street.
"I'll get you for that, Riku!" Sora said.
"Sure you will!" Riku called back.
1 week later
Sora and Riku were sitting in Sora's backyard.
"You know, someone really ought to stand up to that Maleficent. She can't be as tough as she seems." Riku said.
"Why don't we? We could become an elite group of warriors! We could be the... the... Kingdom Warriors!" Sora exclaimed.
"Okay, but it's just two of us. How do we fight with just two of us?" Riku said.
"Um... we'll put sheets all over town that explain it! We'll just have people sign up for it! We'll use that old warehouse that my parents own but never use!" Sora said.
"Alright then. We should use codenames so Maleficent can't track us down. I'll be..." Riku began thinking.
"Shadow. It's original, but it suits you." Sora said.
"Alright. Since you made the idea and came up with my name, you'll be our leader." Riku said.
"I'll be... um... what do you think Riku?" Sora asked.
"Sunrise. You are so optimistic, you're like the thing that everyone looks forward to seeing in the morning." Riku said.
"That's kind of deep, even for you, Riku." Sora said.
"Yeah, sure. Riku said, rolling his eyes.
Another week later
"Come on, Shadow! We don't want to be late for when our next member arrives!" Sora said, running along. There had been one person who had signed up to be a Kingdom Warrior a few days ago. Sora watched as Riku pulled on his last boot.
"Is the armor really necessary?" Riku asked.
"Yes! My parents paid a lot of money for that!" Sora said. Sora's parents were rich, so it didn't really matter.
Sora was wearing yellow and black armor. Riku was wearing pure black armor.
"Besides, it'll help hide our identities. You're lucky! Your armor is black and it'll hide you more!" Sora said, rushing into the warehouse and climbing up to the top.
"We have to be up here so that when the person gets here, we can be sure it isn't a trick from Maleficent." Sora said as Riku joined him.
"Hello? I'd like to become a Kingdom Warrior." A girl said.
Riku looked at Sora and mouthed 'A girl?'
"Sweet! We're always looking for new members." The girl fell to the ground as Sora dropped from the ceiling.
"The name's Sora, nice to meet you." He said, sticking out his hand.
"Kairi." She said, shaking his hand.
"Riku, get down here!" Sora said, causing Riku to fall flat onto his face.
"Is he okay?" The girl asked.
"He'll be fine." Sora looked at the girl again, and noticed that she was his redheaded neighbor.
"You might not know it, but we're neighbors." Kairi said.
"Oh really? I didn't know that." Sora said. Riku looked at him quizzically but said nothing. Then Kairi noticed the armor.
"Oo! If I join, do I get armor like that?" Kairi asked.
"Yes. You also get a codename. I'm Sunrise, and that's Shadow." Sora said. "You'll be... Eclipse."
"Why?" Kairi asked.
"Don't ask why Sora does anything. He just does. He's weird like that." Riku said.
Kairi giggled. Sora didn't know it yet, but in the future, he'd think that the way she giggled was cute.
Three months later
"Shadow, Eclipse, faster! We have to meet someone, now!" Sora said, running ahead.
"It's hard to get these boots on, Sora! How do you get these on?" Kairi complained. Kairi had purple armor.
Sora leapt up to the top of the warehouse and waited quietly as Kairi and Riku joined him.
"Hello? I'm Namine, is anyone here?"
