Kairi ran up to stand next to Valerie. She cast a protect spell on both of them. Even though it was attacking Riku, she didn't want to attack what was once Eden. --- "I dunno," Jeffrey replied honestly. His eyes flicked back to the map for a second. "You just gotta hope for the best, you know?"
Kairi did not get into a battle stance, but she gripped Destiny's Embrace tightly. She had a bad feeling about Riku's reaction. --- Jeffrey turned his head slightly towards Sora, his face blushing in embarrassment at how he had just left Sora. "It's fine."
Jeffrey sighed and shook his head. Well, can't really help him right now... He walked over to the cockpit and checked the map. The ship had just entered Australia. Just a minute or so until we're there.
"Well, er..." Jeffrey couldn't think of anything to say to calm the Keyblade Wielder. "Well, I'm sure Riku wouldn't care too much about it..."
"Well, it's not like you can help it, right?" Jeffrey replied. He scratched his head lightly. He's getting pretty close to the end, isn't he...?
Kairi stood there, confused at the entire scene. Like Valerie, she couldn't hear the Heartless speaking. --- "What's up, Sora?" Jeffrey asked confusedly, seeing the Keyblade Wielder run into the rest area.
No J in the periodic table.
Kairi couldn't help but laugh at Valerie's last comment. "Alright, here we go!" She held Destiny's Embrace straight out at Eden's heart. She focused on Riku, and the tip of the Keyblade began to glow. But after a few moments, the light faded away. "I guess I can't do it without knowing how..." She turned to Gexln. "Do you know?"
"I dunno," Kairi replied, scratching the back of her neck. "I mean, I could try... but there's no guarantee that it would actually work."
Kairi walked up to the light, catching her breath. "This must be them. Where else would light come from in here?" She reached out her hand, touching it with her fingers as someone would before stepping into hot or cold water before walking in. As soon as her eyes adjusted to the brightness, she saw Riku's body and Eden with Valerie and Gexln near them. "What's going on here?"
Well played, dear sir. Do you still consider Pluto a planet? yes If you could go anywhere in the world, where would it be? If you could go to any point in time, when would it be? Favorite date of the week? I suppose I must ask this eventually: Impressions?
Roman Empire or Byzantine? To be, or not to be? Sburb title? Favorite non-English language?
Kairi saw a surge of light in the distance. "Could that be them?" she asked to herself. Not giving herself any time to think, she sprinted towards the light. --- Jeffrey's head titled down, his eyes beginning to close, but he jolted back up, still tired. "Where are they? It's been... I don't even know. I've lost track by now."
"Guys?" Kairi asked, looking around in the darkness. She had been separated for the group, who had ran from their dangers. "Where are you?" She could feel Destiny's Embrace pulling towards something. But it definitely wasn't her friends. --- Jeffrey fed the Heartless a bit of spoiled food. Sitting back, he yawned and scratched the back of his head. "They've been gone for a few days already. What's taking them so long?"
> Sforzato: Ask the voice if he is a cricket.
Jeffrey walked up to the Keyblade Wielder and hugged him, patting him softly on the back. "It'll be alright," he said. "There's no way that'll happen. Everything will be fine when the time comes."
"Ah, I see," Jeffrey replied. That's a pretty bad nightmare... Hopefully it won't actually happen. "Well..." He wasn't sure what to say. "Would you like a hug?"
"You sure?" Jeffrey asked, not buying that Sora could just shrug it off. "You look pretty bad. Do you want to talk about it?"
"Are you alright, Sora?" Jeffrey asked, concerned about him and the condition of the baby. Kairi gulped as she looked up the rock. Come on, Kairi, a voice in her head told her, You've jumped off from high places before. You can climb one! Shaking her head, she grabbed a hold and began to climb.
Jeffrey watched Sora toss and turn. "I probably shouldn't wake him up," he said to himself. "Who knows what reaction he'd have if he was touched in the middle of a nightmare..." Kairi sped up. I know we're close, but jeez! She smiled at her thoughts. But that means we'll be able to get Riku's body back soon!
