Alison's Point of View
Vanitas and I entered the mansion in Twilight Town. It looked even worse than in the game. I suppose that's what happens when you leave a building for who knows how many years. As I observed the mansion, I noticed something strange. There were footprints on the floor and they looked suspiciously fresh. "Vanitas, I think someone's here. Either that or was recently here. Be on guard." I warned.
We quietly searched the mansion mainly to see if anyone else was there and eventually, we went to the room that Namine's drawings from the games were in and I was shocked to see who was there. It was Kairi and Namine! How did Namine stay young? I listened for any valuable information. Unfortunately for me, Kairi still has the eye in the back of her head. "Alison?!" Kairi gasped as she turned to Vanitas and I. "And Vanitas!" She then added. How she knows when I'm sneaking, I'll never know. "What are you doing here?" She asked. "Hey Kairi. We ran from the Organization and we kind of want Sora to know that we're the good guys. Lea is trying to convince Riku to convince Sora about us helping the light." Vanitas explained. "You sent... Lea?" She asked clenching her hands into fists. She sounded like she was trying to suppress a lot of anger. "Yeah. I have full confidence that he's going to pull this off." Vanitas smirked. "You entrusted that idiot with such a task?! I could convince Sora quicker than he could convince Riku!" Kairi exclaimed. "Prove it." Vanitas provoked. "I will." Kairi huffed before leaving.
"Kairi and Lea have had a rivalry ever since they were training. Kairi gets really competitive when it comes to anything Lea's doing." Vanitas explained. I turned to Namine. "Do you know who I am?" I asked. "Yes. I saw what Kairi saw and heard what Kairi heard." Namine replied. "Cool. So what are we going to do now?" I wondered. "Wait." Namine answered.
So we waited for quite some time. Vanitas and I talked about every possible thing to talk about from Xehanort to kittens. Eventually, Vanitas got to a question that really caught me off guard. "Alison, do you like me?" He asked, his face turning into the shade of a tomato. I thought about how I would answer that. "Of course I like you. You're my friend." I giggled nervously. "No, I mean like... a lot. You know, like, love? I'm sorry. I'm bad at this. I guess what I'm trying to say is, will you be my girlfriend?" He asked. "Yes!" I shrieked. "No." Kairi said from behind me. I turned around, wondering how long she had been there. "What do you mean 'no'?" I demanded. "If you think for a minute that because Xehanort's your real father and so because he's not around you can do whatever you want, think again. I raised you since you were a baby and I intend to keep raising you until you're a responsible adult." Kairi replied. "Okay, fine. But why can't Vanitas be my boyfriend? Isn't that my choice? This is so unfair." I moaned. "Life is unfair. You think I wanted to have my heart be nothing more than a tool for Maleficent, or get kidnapped by Organization XIII?" Kairi scoffed. "You know, you're awfully mean for someone with a pure heart." I grumbled.
"Anyway, Sora was looking for you. He was on a gummi ship with Molly. Because I was wearing my armor, I was able to join him in his gummi ship. He's right outside the mansion. He decided to trust you on his own. I told him about Vanitas. He reluctantly agreed to put up with him. If you don't want him to get angry at either of you, don't get any ideas about a boyfriend girlfriend relationship." Kairi said. "Well then... I guess this is it. It's all or nothing." I laughed nervously. We made our way outside of the mansion.
Alright. I finally got this done. Thank you unicron1000 and Ruby Rose KAWAII COOKIE EATER for your reviews.
V.t.7: It's not annoying. It actually helps me look over various chapters. I also do seem to have a tendency to make villains softer than they are. I completely softened Vanitas and Xehanort does seem to be a lot more reasonable. It's probably one of my biggest flaws when writing this.
