Chapter 5: Brian
Daniel, Kyle and Scott was wearing their armoured uniform with their white cloaks at the back, each cloak had a symbol of a dragon behind a crown, one that is very similar to Sora's crown pendant. Kyle wasn't wearing his right arm part of his uniform due to having a BIG MASSIVE ROBOTIC ARM INSTEAD. They were all standing, facing the direction for the sun as if they were waiting for something. All three of them turned around to see Brian coming out of the blue; wearing his normal clothes with a blue cloak that look like it was choking to death. He stood next to Daniel and summoned his staff so that he could lean against it. "Man, this cloak is gonna KILL me if I don't get it off now!" moaned Brian, he ribbed the cloak off and put it in his bag.
"Why are you out of uniform?" asked Scott, now curiously on if he could go back to wearing his normal clothes.
"Cause I'm not a bloody retard like you three" Brian answered sarcastically, sighing impatiently as he watched the sun set over the horizon.
"You should be wearing your uniform!" moaned Kyle, "We aarree waiting for the Keyblade master after all."
"And since YOU found out that there were coming before we did," Daniel continued, "YOU should have been the first to be here."
"Well SORRY!" Brian said sarcastically, "I didn't know that we had to give the Keyblade fool SO MUCH RESPECT!"
"He did save all the worlds from Xehanort… Scott pointed out
"…And destroyed Organisation XIII…" continued Kyle
"…at least you can do is give him respect for THAT." Daniel ended. A portal appeared that grabbed Daniel, Kyle and Scott's attention.
"No! No matter what you guys say. I will never, EVER, respect a keyblade weilde…" Brian finally stopped ranting to notice that Sora, Riku and Kairi had just come through the portal. Brian eyes widened as he saw Kairi. "Wow." he said amusing, "A Princess of Heart however, I would defiantly respect." Brian started to walk to Kairi went he was dragged away by Daniel. "Hey!" started Brain, "I didn't do anything. I was guess going to introduce myself to the Princess of Heart."
"I saw that look." Daniel said looking at Brian in a serious way.
"What look?" Brian said innocently
"That 'I like this girl' look."
"I didn't pull that look." he lied
"Look at the princess." command Daniel, Brian turned his head to where Kairi was as she was talking to Kyle and Scott with Sora. Riku was checking the portal they came through for some reason. Brian couldn't help it but mouth 'wow' at Kairi. Daniel pushed Brian's head in his direction again. "That look" Daniel pointed out.
"I was admiring the view." Brian quickly made up. Daniel laughed at the way that sounded. "I meant the sunset." He added.
"You wasn't admiring it a second ago." Daniel smirked.
"Okay. Okay. So what if I gave her the look?" Brian said while air quoting 'the look'.
"The look leads to flirting, and flirting is what I don't you to be doing." Daniel explained, making sure that no one else was listening.
"ME not flirting?" Brian shocked, he then put his hand on his chest, "It's like you don't even know me." Brian pretended to be upset, when Daniel slapped him back to reality. "What was THAT for?!" moaned Brian.
"For being an idiot!" Daniel answered
"You don't slap Scott for being an idiot!"
"That is because Scott is an idiot all the time, and my hand would get tired if I keep slapping him." Daniel then grabbed Brian by the shoulder hardly. "You don't. I repeat. YOU DON'T flirt with the princess. GOT IT?" commanded Daniel. Brian smirk back at his brother as he put his right arm behind his back and twisted his fingers together.
"Got it." he answered back as he was released by Daniel and headed to the rest of the group.
BOWBOWBOW
Sora and Kairi were talking to who their now know as Kyle and Scott. Sora through they were a bit similar to Donald and Goofy, Kyle would be Donald as he got impatience with Scott. Scott would be Goofy as he kept saying random, stupid things which involve Kyle whacking him around the head with his robotic hand.
Speaking of which, Donald and Goofy haven't come through the portal yet, but they were just behind them. Riku went in and out the portal to see where they are could have got too; Riku came out through the portal finding neither Donald nor Goofy. The portal disappeared as the transportation spell that Merlin had cast had now finished.
Sora noticed it straight away and went to Riku for information, Kairi however carried on talking to Kyle and Scott. "What happened?" asked Sora, "Where is Donald and Goofy?"
"The portal could only transport three people at a time so we have to wait till Merlin can do another transportation spell." Riku explained.
"They're still in Radiant Garden!?." Sora moaned, he then sighed, "Things can't get any worse."
"I think it just did for you Sora." Riku added
"What do you mean?" asked the confused Sora
"Look!" Riku pointed to Brian who was heading to Kairi with a cheesy smile on his face, similar to Sora's goofy smile but not the same. Brian started to introduce himself to Kairi and started to kiss Kairi's hand, which make Sora's hands balled into fists.
"Who does he think he is!" muttered to himself, even through Riku could here every word, "What makes him think that he can just walk up to her and kiss her on the hand." Sora was clinging his hands even more. Riku haven't seen this side of Sora before, it could only mean one thing.
"Somebody's jealous," sang Riku
"I'm NOT jealous" Sora shot back
"Oh yeah? Why are your hands clenching then?" Sora didn't answer as he went to meet this boy who was flirting with Kairi while Riku went over to Daniel to explain the situation about the king and the mysterious creatures.
Sora went to where Kairi and Brian were, "Hey Sora." greeted Kairi, "What going on with Donald and Goofy?"
"They've gotten stuck in Radiant Garden so they'll be here in a minute." Sora replied, he then looked at Brian, "Who's this Kairi?" Sora said in some sort of a kind way.
"This is Brian Devon, he is brothers with Daniel, Kyle and Scott." explained Kairi, Sora could only guess that the one with blue hair talking to Riku was Daniel. Sora faced back to Brian and raised his hand.
"It's nice to meet you Brian" Sora lied as he took his hand and shook it, showing a fake smile. "I'm Sora. Kairi's best friend" Sora sensed something about Brian that he couldn't put his finger on, it felt like he was shaking his own hand but Kairi's hand as well.
"That's strange." Sora through. "Roxas? What do you think of this guy?"
"I don't know but now is not the time to talk about it."
Brian finally stopped shaking Sora's hand and put it behind his back.
"It is nice to finally meet you Sora." he said with a bit of disgust in his voice. "I heard so much about you. Mainly from my brother, Daniel." Brian looked at Sora's garments, and then he saw Sora's BIG BOOTS. "Why have you got clown feet?" Brian said truly, Kairi didn't hear what Brian had said as she went to talk to Riku and Daniel.
"Huh?" said Sora
"Well. Your feet are so BIG that with one step, you can destroy Hollow Bastion." Brian insulted.
"It's called Radiant Garden." Sora informed
"Same place Bigfoot."
"Hey!" Sora was getting a bit tick off with this Brian guy, first watching him flirt with Kairi then getting insults by him. If one more thing happens then it's go time between Sora and Brian. Brian started to walk off, Sora didn't want to start a fight on a guy he just met, no matter how much he wanted to.
Brian stopped and faced Sora, "Oh. Kairi is a great girl. Don't you think?" Brain taunted, "Maybe I should ask her out…If that is alright with you Sora. After all, you are her best friend and nothing more. Right?" Brian air quoted 'best friends' and laughed as he carried on walking.
"That's this!" Sora through as he started to charge towards Brian. Luckily, Riku saw this and grabbed Sora before he pounced on Brian. "Riku! Let me go!" Sora told Riku.
"No" he replied straight away, Riku was holding Sora around his chest.
"Come on" pleaded Sora. Riku shook his head. "Please Riku. I won't hurt him..." Riku raised his eyebrow at this, "…much" Sora finished. Riku let go of him but still held on to his shoulder so that he don't go and kill Brian.
"This is what I meant about guys liking Kairi." explained Riku, considering that he said it to him only a couple of hours ago. He slowly let go off Sora's shoulder as he had calmed himself down. Sora turned to face Riku. "And this is also what I meant about you putting your emotions in front of what really matters." Sora was a little ticked off with Riku as he really said Kairi isn't as important as this new threat.
"You have to tell Kairi how you…" Riku started.
"Tell me what?" said a voice. Sora and Riku jumped as they turned around to see Kairi next to them. "What have you got to tell me, Sora?" she asked with a questioning look.
"Now's your chance, Sora." Riku whispered to Sora as he pushed Sora closer to Kairi. Riku walks away but still close enough to eavesdrop on them. Sora looked into Kairi's eyes as he tried to say his true feelings.
"Well…um…What I wanted to say was…um…that I have…" struggled Sora. Riku smiled as he hoped that his best friend can tell her how he feels.
"Come on. Sora." he muttered to himself, "If you can save all the worlds twice, me and Kairi in the process, then you can tell Kairi how you feel." Riku carried on eavesdropping on Sora and Kairi.
"That you what?" Kairi asked with a confused face. Sora wanted to get this out of his system. How much he wanted to tell Kairi how much he loved her. How much he wanted to give Kairi a passionate kiss to show his love. But for some reason; he couldn't say it. Something was stopping him, he didn't know what but something was stopping him.
"That I have a bad feeling about this Brian guy," Sora said in defeat. Riku slapped his forehand in disbelief, how he through Sora was going to tell her. "It feels like the way we would talk to Roxas or Naminé but only in a bad sort of way." Sora explained. Kairi couldn't understand why Sora had struggled to talk about a guy that they have just met two minutes ago.
"Maybe he was trying to say something else, but just couldn't say it."Kairi thought, "What is he was trying to tell me that he…….nah, couldn't be. Could it?" Kairi came out of her thoughts as a portal similar to the one they came through appeared. Riku had come back in the conversation as Sora failed to use the opportunity he had to tell Kairi that he loved her.
"I think we should get to know Brian before we start getting suspicious." She said to Sora as she started to walk to where Kyle, Scott and Brian was, "Come on. Let's go see if that is Donald and Goofy." Sora nodded and him and Riku followed Kairi to where the others were.
The portal opened and Donald and Goofy finally came through. Daniel smiled as he walked up to them and gave them hugs. Donald and Goofy smiled as they hugged him back. "Well. How have ya been, Danny?" asked Goofy
"Yeah. We haven't seen you in three years." added Donald.
As usual, Sora didn't know anything about this, so he walked to where Daniel, Donald and Goofy were. "How did you guys know each other?" asked Sora
"I crashed on Disney Castle and stayed there until I was able to fix my gummi. This is how I met Donald and Goofy, although they kept on calling me Danny when my name is Daniel." explained Daniel. Kyle then came over and whispered something in Daniel ear, Daniel face turned worried as he once again faced Donald and Goofy. "Can you guys help me with something?" asked Daniel.
"Um…sure Danny." Both Donald and Goofy said at the same time, Daniel face showed a bit of annoyance as he was called Danny. Daniel told Donald and Goofy to follow Kyle and Scott to their house. Daniel turned to face Sora and put his hand out, "It's very nice to meet you, young Keyblade master." Sora took his hand and shook it.
"Thanks. But just call me Sora." replied Sora
"Ok. Sora." Daniel finished shaking Sora's hand and crossed his arms. "I'm Daniel Devon. Leader and Creator of Little Devon." Daniel looked behind him to see Scott and Goofy waving their arms around trying to get his attention. "Sorry Sora. I got to go. It was very nice meeting you." Daniel said quickly as he started to walk backwards, "Can you tell Brian to show you guys around Little Devon for annoying me?" Sora nodded and watched Daniel turn around and run towards Goofy and Scott.
Sora turned around and saw Brian getting ready to do one of his flirt moves on Kairi, so he shouted to him. "Brian! Daniel said you got to show us around Little Devon for a while because of disobeying orders." Sora shouted.
Brian sighed at not only getting interrupted in his busy flirting plans but also knowing that Daniel must have seen him doing his busy flirting plans. "Okay. Come on. I introduce you to some of my mates." said Brian as he headed for the west side of Little Devon. Sora, Riku and Kairi soon followed Brian to meet his so-called friends.
BOWBOWBOW
"Considering this world is called Little Devon, it takes a long time to reach one side of the town." moaned Riku. They came around the corner and saw a group of people sitting in front of…what looks like a training arena.
They are two boys and two girls; one of the boys was a dog-like person. He had a red shirt with zips near the collar, had ¾ length cargo pants and had white trainers. He was similar to Goofy expect for having more hair, standing straight and being younger.
The other boy is wearing a steel waist coat with giant zips. He also had a large pendant around his neck and his hair is blonde and messy. He had a red cloth as a belt and has armoured boots & gloves. He looked about 17 and was slightly build.
The first girl had blonde hair tied in pigtails. She had a yellow and blue body suit with brown shoulder guards and boots. She looked 17 as well and was getting along well with the first boy.
The last girl had a bit of a tomboy look. She had short, light blue, spiky hair. She had a dark green, short sleeve jacket with a shoulder guard on her right arm. She also had a white shirt and ¾ length cargo pants like the dog-boy's and brown short length boots. Brian, Sora, Kairi and Riku walk towards the group to see the tomboy girl ranting on about something to the other three.
"If ONE MORE PERSON tells me to wear a skirt. I swear. I'LL SHOVE MY ETERNAL BLADE RIGHT UP THEIR…!!" ranted the tomboy girl.
"Hey Hikari." interrupted Brian, the tomboy girl turned and got up to greet Brian.
"Hi Brian." greeted Hikari. She scanned her eyes over Sora, Kairi and Riku and then back at Brian. She smacked Brian around the back of the head, making Sora, Riku and the other three laugh a bit. Kairi didn't laugh as she wondered about something else. Brian rubbed the sore part of his head and saw Hikari cursing him.
"What did I do?" complained Brian
"How could you NOT introduce me to the Keyblade master and his friends!" Hikari moaned.
"I was about to until you hit me in the head." Brian argued. He sighed as he turned to Sora, Kairi and Riku. "Guys. This is Hikari. My best friend." Brian continued, he then turned back to Hikari. "Hikari. This is…"
"I know who they are." Hikari interrupted, "That's Sora. The Keyblade master. That's Kairi. Princess of Heart and a Keyblade wielder…" Hikari continued as she pointed to the person as she said their name. "And that's…uh…" she struggled as she pointed to Riku.
"His name's…" Brian tried to help but had his mouth covered by Hikari's hand.
"No! I want to guess." Hikari complained as she moved her hand away from Brian's mouth. Brian just rolled his eyes and let her continue. She started to say random names that could be Riku's name like 'Dumbo', 'white giant',' snowman' etc. Sora and Kairi just laughed at all the names Hikari was coming up for Riku that looked like he was getting annoyed.
"It's Riku." he said simply,
"Nah. That's not it." Hikari replied as she through about his name.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN THAT'S NOT IT?!" Riku shouted right back at Hikari. "I THINK I KNOW WHAT MY NAME IS!" He was right in her face. Sora wanted to drag Riku away but Brian stopped him and told him to watch. Hikari immediately got her Eternal Blade out and hit him around the head with it. Riku tried to get up but Hikari put one of her feet on his chest to hold him down and pointed her blade at his neck.
"Just because you went in the realm of darkness, doesn't mean you get to be Mr grumpy locks with your depressing attitude!!" Hikari shot back. Riku couldn't believe that he was stood up to by a girl. Riku smiled and blushed a little at this. Sora saw Riku blush and nearly blacked out in the near shock of seeing Riku actually blush. Hikari disposed her weapon and helped Riku up. "And besides, I think the name 'Silver' is much better than boring name 'Riku'." Hikari finished up.
"Silver? No way." complained Riku
"Ok everyone." She turned to face the others. "Whoever thinks that the name 'Silver' is much better than the name 'Riku'. Put your hand up." Hikari asked everyone. Soon everyone had they hand up apart from Riku, Sora and Kairi. Sora and Kairi wanted to put their hands up but they knew that Riku would give them death glares or death itself afterwards. "Five out of eight. Everyone else can call you Riku but I'm calling you Silver whether you like it or not." Hikari told Riku before doing a victory dance.
"Now that we got THAT out of the way." Brian started, "I like you to me the others. That's Vaan. That's Penelo and that's Max." Brian introduce as he pointed to the normal boy at Vaan, Max at the dog-boy and Penelo at the girl. He phone started to ring so he quickly answered it.
"Hi." the three all went.
"Hey Max. Your dad's Goofy right?" asked Sora.
"Yeah." answered Max, "How do you know my dad?"
"Goofy and Donald helped Sora save the worlds from darkness." explained Riku
"He will be so pleased to see you Max." added Kairi. Max's eyes widened and his face turned to shock.
"He's in Little Devon?" asked the shocked Max
"Yep." Brian butted in as he hanged up the phone and joined the group. "In fact, that was Scott on the phone. He said that he and your dad are just around the corner. If I was your butt. I move my butt into the training arena in about 3…2..1.." Brian looked at his watch and counted down with his fingers. When he looked back up, Max was already gone which left behind a clound of dust where he was sitting as well as seeing the training doors flap open from his fast entrance. At the same time, Scott and Goofy came round the corner and started to wave like mad to them.
"What was THAT all about?" Sora questioned
"I explain Max's problems later." Brian shrugged off. "We got to go to my brother's house now. That is. If you what to find out about this enemy?" Brian smirked at the islanders.
"Let's go." replied Sora. Riku and Kairi nodded and started to follow Brian. They wave goodbye to Hikari, Vaan and Penelo as they join Scott and Goofy. They all left out of the north exit, which lead to Brian's house.
