Brittany's Point of View

Sora told me that it's going to be a while before we get there. Gummi ships take so much longer than dark corridors. I'm sitting in a corner, curled up in a ball trying not to cry. I don't think anyone here likes me.

'Now I'm sure that's not true Brittany.' I put Kairi in a coma. Why would they not hate me? 'Because everyone makes mistakes. All of the people in this room have done things they regret.' Yeah, but I really messed up.

Riku sat beside me. "Hey, you okay?" He checked. I might as well just say it.

"Do you hate me?" I questioned. "Of course not. Why would I hate you?" He asked. "Kairi was in a coma because of me. I did that to her. It was my fault." A tear rolled down my face. "Are you still upset about that? You need to learn to let that stuff go." Dad laughed. "But I..." I trailed off. "Look, you're not the only one here who did stuff they regret. One time I asked a friend how I was going to face everyone. You know what he said?" He mentioned. "Like this." I replied, squishing my face together like Sora did in Kingdom Hearts II. We laughed.

"He feels bad. Sora didn't mean to yell at you. He was really stressed. You should go talk to him." Dad suggested. I highly doubt that he really feels bad, but I get up and talk to Sora anyway. He's looking out the window. I go next to him.

"Are you... still mad?" I asked nervously. He looked at me with sad eyes. "No. I'm so sorry I yelled at you like that. I know that it was an accident. I knew it then too. It was just... easier to have someone to blame. You were an easy target. If there's ever any way I can make it up to you, please let me know." He sighed. "Thank you. Your forgiveness is more than enough." I said without really thinking of what I could do with a favor from Sora. Although I guess I don't really want it if he does it because of guilt.

"I still feel awful about it. I had no right to do that. Especially not with what was going on." He sighed. "Well, I guess if it makes you feel better, there is something you could do. I have some questions that I've been wanting you to answer. Questions about me. I know you don't like complications. I know it's easier to let someone else answer. But they need to come from you. That would mean more to me than anything else you could ever do." I suggested. He smiled at me. "Come on. Let's go sit down somewhere." He urged. I followed him to a bedroom. He sat down on the bed and I sat next to him.

"This is my room. I spend most of my time going from place to place, so it's easier to have a room in the ship." He explained. So this is where he stayed most of the time when my sisters and I were on Earth. I threw myself into the pillows so I was laying down. It's so soft. He placed himself next to me with his arm propping him up. "You know, I remember when you were little you would always sleep with Kairi and I when you had nightmares. Kairi would always want you to sleep in your own bed, but I would convince her to let you. You were so cute back then. Now look at you. All grown up and seeing new worlds." He sighed.

"Did you... was I ever... am I... did you love me? Like a real daughter?" I finally asked. "You are as much my daughter as Molly is. I want you to know that. I want you to know that no matter what, I'll always love you. I know that it might not seem like it lately, but the truth is... I'm having a hard time with this too. You meeting your real parents. Leaving me. Throwing yourself in the middle of difficult situations. Finding out who I am. Knowing that you and your sisters will see me the same again. I'm coping too Brittany. Besides marrying Kairi, you girls are the best thing that has ever happened to me." He admitted. That was the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me. My eyes teared up and streams of water were pouring out.

"Can you still be my dad?" I sobbed. He stroked my hair. "Not completely. You still have your real parents. I wish that we could go back to a time when all this didn't exist in your life. But you know something? I'm proud of you. You've had a lot going lately and you have shown me that you are turning out to be a responsible, level-headed young lady. I hope that whichever path you'll take, you will be successful in fulfilling your goals and dreams, whatever they may be." He answered. I wiped my tears away and let out a small laugh.

"Well that's a relief. I guess I should tell you this now. I've been thinking about everything that's been going on and decided that I want to follow in my grandfather's footsteps and begin a conquest for the X-blade." I teased. His hand stopped suddenly. "Just kidding." I laughed. He pulled his hand away as he sighed in relief.

'Brittany, you can't joke about things like that. Especially with him.' Yeah, I know.

"Do you think I'll ever feel like Yuffie and Riku are really my parents." I wondered. "I don't know. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink. What does your heart say?" He questioned. "Okay, I'm sorry but despite Kingdom Hearts being my favorite video game, I think that ask your heart stuff is stupid." I scoffed. He chuckled a little.

"Fair enough. Maybe someday you'll learn to listen to your heart. Maybe you already do and you just don't realize it." He smiled. "You think so?" I asked. "I know so. Now that you asked your questions, I think it's only fair that I get to ask at least one. "What do you think when you look at me now?" He wondered. "That you're the best dad in the universe, and Molly, Alison and I are lucky to have you." I reassured him.

"Well, it's going to be a while until we get to Auradon. You should find something to do." He suggested. "Daddy, can I sleep with you?" I pleaded. "Brit, you're too old for that. It was cute when you were five, not now." He groaned. "Please? Please, please, pretty please?" I begged. "Fine, I give up. You win. One last time, just because you're going through a lot right now. Don't think this will happen again." He sighed. I got under the covers and closed my eyes, curling up next to Sora. I quickly fell asleep.
