"Wake up Kairi," Namine said.
Kairi immediately woke up. "Oh its just you."
"Sora, and Riku are going to find where that monster lives."
"He spoke to me," Kairi said with no emotion.
"What did he say?"
"He said, "Kairi, don't walk away."
"That's crazy! Get dressed, I'll meet you outside," Namine said as she left her room.
Kairi hopped off the bed and quickly threw on some clothes. She left her house to meet up with her friends.
"Let's go!" Sora said as he led his friends into the woods.
"I see footprints! " Namine pointed to the ground.
Everyone turned their gaze to look at the footprints. "They're human footprints," Riku said.
"But where's that monster living?" Sora asked as he looked around.
"Why don't we following the footprints?" Kairi suggested.
"Oh right," Sora said as he rubbed the back of his head.
The teens followed the footprints, the footprints seem like they kept going and going.
"I think its never ending footprints," Riku said.
"We have to keep going!" Sora said with pride.
They walked for a few hours following the footprints. "Guys, they stop here," Sora said.
"Where do we go now?" Kairi asked with worry.
"I don't know, all I know is we're in the middle of nowhere! " Sora yelled.
"Wouldn't it be easier that we split up? " Namine asked.
"Yeah! Kairi, you go to the right. Namine, you take the left. Riku you take the other righ and I keep going straight! "
The teens split up and went in their directions where Sora wanted them to go.
Kairi was looking around with her heart beating against her chest. She's scarred about that monster might find her and kill her.
She wasn't looking where she was going, she tripped on a root and she fell to the ground. "Ow!"
"Are you okay, Kairi?" Asked a familiar male voice.
Kairi quickly got up, thinking its Sora. She gave a good look of this man, its not Sora, but he looks a lot like him. "I'm fine." Kairi stared into his amber eyes, they're the same eyes as the ones that were glowing in the night. Could it be the monster?
"The name's Vanitas."
"Are that monster that appears at night?"
"Yes that's me."
"How do you know my-"
"Its the monster! " Riku yelled as he ran over to Kairi.
"Riku, who did you find me?" Kairi asked.
"I heard your voice, lets go find Sora and Namine."
"Kairi, is going to stay here and talk to me," Vanitas said.
Chills ran down Kairi's spin and Riku stood there and looked at Vanitas. "No, she's coming with me so we all can go home."
"I need to-"
"Riku!" Sora yelled.
"Kairi!" Namine yelled as her and Sora walked over to them.
"Guys, this is Vanitas," Kairi said.
"You're not that scary as a human," Sora said.
"Thanks."
"Let's go home," Riku said.
"Kairi, is staying with me," Vanitas said.
"You can't keep her!" Sora said.
"Yeah, I can. I need to speak to her."
"Why not now?" Namine asked.
"You're here, if you excuse me I'm going to bring her to my house," Vanitas replied.
Kairi's heart pounded in her chest and her hands were getting sweaty. "You guys go ahead without me." She's not sure if she made the right choice.
Her friends blinked a couple of times, they turned on their heels and walked off.
Vanitas took Kairi's hand to take her to his house. "Your hand is sweaty."
"I'm nervous. "
"There's nothing to be afraid of, I'm not going to hurt you."
"What is it that you want?" Kairi asked.
They stepped on his wooden porch. His house was an old wodden cabin. He opened the door and they both walked in.
Kairi looked around the room. Its just like any other house.
"Sit."
Kairi sat in a chair that was pulled out of the table in the kitchen.
Vanitas looked at her and he smirked. He can sence her fear." There's nothing to be afraid of."
"Why am I here?"
"I watch you everyday, you're so darn beautiful."
"You watch me?!"
"Yes, you see I'm lonely here. I need somebody to care for me."
"Why did you pick me?"
"I'm part of Sora, I think like Sora, we like the same things. The only thing we don't have in common is he likes the light and I like darkness."
"What do I have to do with anything?" Kairi asked.
"Because, I'm taking you away from Sora. I don't want him protecting you."
"Are you saying you want to protect me?"
"Yup."
"How can I trust you?"
"You have to trust me, there's no choice," he said with a smirk.
"Am I going to be here forever?"
"No, only today, but I will make sure you see me everyday."
"You know Sora isn't going to like that."
"You're not going to listen to Sora anymore, you only listen to me!"
Kairi shook her head. "No, no, no! You're evil! Why would I listen to somebody who lives in darkness?"
Vanitas laughed. "Tonight, you'll see me as a monster. I'll show Sora!"
"You can't hurt my friends!"
"I'm not going to hurt them. I don't hurt people."
"Why did you throw a dead body at us?" Kairi asked.
"You can't stop asking questions. I kill people, who try to kill me."
Kairi hopes Sora doesn't try to hurt Vanitas or her friends. She doesn't want them to get killed by the beast.
