OOC: Yuss, (; >>>>OH,anddd putting Cloud in the Organization was a mistake. I'll go correct it now, lol. BIC: Kairi hopped over to get as near to Sora as possible, "NO SORA, DON'T MOVE. Leon is going to fall if you keep moving around!" She sighed, shaking her tiny head.
OOC: Sure thing. Kairi sighed, hopping over to the well. "So, is Donald down there or what?" She gave a concerned look, "If he fell down there..he could be hurt." With a sigh she lay down beside the well, confident to find out what was down there.
Kairi couldn't smile, but would've. "Sora!" She herself didn't know where Donald went either. "DONALD!" She yelled repeatedly. She figured he was probably hiding somewhere.
Chapter 4 (Finally, Chapter 4. Very short, but it's still a chapter. The next one will be normal length. There are some strange things going on at Beast's castle, and that's all I'm going to say. Anyway, enjoy.) Beast raised a brow, "Guys, I think you need to fill me in on what's going in. If you'd like, you can have supper with us." Sora nodded, "Sure." As the group sat down at the tables to eat, Riku began to talk about what was going on, "The Organization somehow materialized themselves back in Radiant Garden, putting a major threat on the worlds. Thus the reason we are returning to every world we saved." Belle, who was serving everyone chicken with rolls, said "So, let me get this straight, The Organization is really, truly, without a doubt...back?" "That's right," said Sora, with a sigh. "Then you guys had better stay overnight here and rest up. It's no use battling when you're exhausted," replied Belle. Although Belle spoke the truth, Riku didn't really believe they needed to stay there, "Yes, but we really need to take advantage of every minute. We don't know how much time we have left, after all." Beast gave the group a face that said all too clearly that they were going to stay. "You guys really need your rest. Besides, I can tell you're all worn out." Sora turned to see that Goofy had fallen asleep at the table and Riku was just then dozing off. He sighed and reluctantly agreed, "Fine." Donald, who hadn't taken so much as a bite out of his chicken, spoke. "I don't feel comfortable eating chicken...do you have something else?" Belle smiled and returned to the kitchen. A few moments later she returned with salmon. "Works for me," Donald said in a rare but happy tone. +++++ "Where is Axel?" growled Xemnas. "I DON'T KNOW, OKAY!" replied Larxene. "The traitor. I knew he'd never amount to anything," said Xemnas, shaking his head disapprovingly. "Yeah yeah yeah," said Larxene, rolling her eyes. "Find Axel for me, Larxene, or life may become most unpleasant for you," whispered Xemnas with a sly grin. "Alright, alright. I'll find him for you." Larxene said, walking off. +++++ "Gawrsh, these beds are dusty," complained Goofy, "How exactly am I supposed to sleep on this anyway?" Sora shrugged, "Just bear it, Goofy. This is only for a night." Riku, who was snoring loudly, was completely oblivious to their talking. Donald, however, was exploring the room. He found a book, and dusting it off, realized it was some sort of fairytale. "Hansem and Grater? There are some very strange things around here," he laughed. Shutting the book, he got into his dusty bed and soon fell asleep. Sora soon fell asleep too, but his sleep didn't last long. He soon awoke to a chilling breeze in the room. "Wha??" He mumbled drowsily. There was a strange girl in the room. But who was she..and what did she want?
OOC: @leon47 Yes :) Kairi woke up, then realized what she had to do. Drawing in a breath, she yelled, "EVERYBODY. CALM THE HECK DOWN AND LISTEN TO ME!" She looked around before continuing to talk, "To undo this spell we are going to have to stop fighting with each other and work together, even if some of us happen to be Organization members. It's possible for us to tolerate each other for once, and I know it. So, like I said, calm down. Also, respect Donald, because everyone makes mistakes every once in a while. Let him think about how he will return us to normal." She cleared her throat, then remained silent, waiting for everyone's reply.
OOC: Within the last few posts I saw no indication of there being a hurricane?
OOC: YES! As soon as I find out that Donald's casting a spell, I might change this rp to him accidentally turning everyone into dogs. Thanks for the inspiration. (;
Aerith succesfully snuck out of Wal-mart and trudged back towards K-mart. When she got there she gasped. K-mart was covered in flames, hopelessly lost. The Organization, she thought to herself. She then walked up to My. "I'm alright, but what do we do?!?" She then thought for a moment before adding, "We need to let people know that this is most likely the Organization's doing. I mean, who else would've set K-mart on fire? Maybe we could tell a news reporter, or someone who could say it's the Organization on television!"
Yeah. Riku should definately be more wise and less arrogant in the next chapters.
Kairi, who'd been napping, finally realized that Sora had shown up. "Sora! Sorry it took so long for me to realize you're here." She then spoke to Namine, "Let's just hope that Donald'll cure us."
OOC: My apologies for not responding to Xaldin's post. But here's my response now. Aerith had felt a strange presence in the speaker room, and narrowly escaped the lances. Hyperventilating, she forced herself to retreat. This wasn't worth it. Their snooping didn't have much of a purpose anyway. She walked swiftly towards the front doors of Wal-mart.
Kairi laughed. She was going to have SO much fun on this cruise....even though it was a Disney cruise. She made her way towards the built in spa area and snagged a spot out in the sun. The spa employee put on a face mask and some tan lotion. Kairi dozed peacefully out in the fresh ocean air.
@ Ralor:Yes. I'm sorry for the mistakes, sometimes it's slightly difficult keeping everyone in character. Even though the Organization gave Demyx his name, I was kinda going by the fact that most everyone has a mom, and moms usually give people their names. lol. Well anyway, yeah, I don't think I have Riku down as well as the others. I realize that he's the serious type, but I do admit I might've made him a bit too arrogant. xD I'm not really rushing on the chapters, but through the rest of the story I'm going to fine tune the attitudes of the characters, especially Riku, since he's the one I'm having difficulty with. @ Xephos: Thank you, and there'll be more in due time. (;
Realizing that Donald was under attack, Kairi stalked towards Larxene. "Back off Donald," she snapped. With a sudden burst of energy, she leapt into the air, attempting to tackle the crazed bunny.
Chapter 3 (Chapter 3 of the story. It took me a while to complete, so I hope you'll like it. Thanks for the encouragement, all of you, and I appreciate your patronage. Tell me what you think about it!) "Wake up Sora," said Donald, "We're here." "Wha-wha, OH." Sora sighed, and realized the Organization returning was real, and not a bad dream. In front of them was Radiant Gardens, the very same city that had before been called Hollow Bastion. Sora, Donald, Goofy, and Riku hopped off the Gummi ship and proceded to walk to Merlin's house. They needed to talk to Leon and the gang, to find out what exactly they needed to do. When they entered Merlin's house, Leon nodded and said, "Shut the door. They might listen in if we leave it open." After shutting the door, Sora spoke, "So...we have to fight the Organization all over again?" "Looks that way," replied Leon with a grim look on his face. "Where are they, then, we'll show 'em?!" demanded Riku angrily. "Easy now, Riku," said Aerith, "Think for a moment. If the Organization regenerated themselves, they're going to be even stronger than they previously were. In other words, don't get too cocky." "Yeah, yeah," growled Riku. "They're most likely spread out throughout the worlds, so you guys are probably going to be traveling around a lot," Leon said. "Like old times?" asked Goofy eagerly. "Like old times," confirmed Leon. Cid, who had previously been busy working on his computer finally spoke, "No doubt there'll be Heartless. The Organization needs it's little helpers, after all." "Yeah, those we can deal with," Donald laughed. "I wonder..." Sora thought out loud, his usual smile dissapearing. "What is it?" asked Leon. "Nothing." All the while, Sora had been thinking about Axel. Axel had ended up being a friend. But now, with the Organization back, he knew he'd have to fight him. He didn't want to, though. It was like Axel was a good guy on the inside, and Sora knew he'd regret it if he fought Axel and won. ++++ Kairi and Selphie walked on the beach, in complete silence at first. They were both thinking about what was going to happen, how the guys they loved were going to fight the Organization. "What if they do come back?" asked Kairi. "What if they don't?" asked Selphie. Both of them began to cry. ++++ Sora and the others had left Hollow Bastion, and were heading for Beast's Castle, fear eating away at their hopes. "I wonder who we'll meet up with here?" asked Donald. "Whoever it is, it's going to be a tough fight. We need to conserve magic, just in case we have to cure ourselves." Riku said, a serious look on his face. Sora nodded. As they stepped off the Gummi ship, they heard a thud and a cry. Rushing towards the noise, they found Beast lying on the floor of the castle, a bewildered look on his face, and Belle, scared stiff, pointing towards the staircase. "Sora, Riku, Donald, Goofy, I'm so glad you're here!" Belle yelled. "What..the..." Beast was apparently clueless. "What happened Beast?" asked Goofy with concern. "Well. This strange kid just ran in and knocked me over, without even knocking on the door. He went upstairs, said he was taking over this place. He had this weird mullet hairdo, with what looked like a guitar as a weapon," said Beast angrily. Demyx, everyone thought at the same time. Sora laughed, "He's the first one we fight?" Riku cleared his throat, "Sora, remember what Aerith said? They're all most likely going to be stronger." Donald snickered at the thought of Demyx being stronger. Sora tried to keep a serious tone in his voice, "Right. Well, we might as well start looking for him." But they didn't have to look long. As they ascended the stairs, they could hear the voice of Demyx, a frightened tone to it, coming from Belle's bedroom. Muttering under his breath, Sora flung open the door. Startled, Demyx tried to run, but tripped over Lumiere, who demanded, "JUST WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING?!" Sora sighed, "So, it's you again. The sitar guy." "Yeah, it's me." Demyx growled. Riku spoke under his breath, "What a loser..." "Now that's just plain rude!" yelled Demyx. He picked up his sitar that he'd dropped, "Let's settle this, then." Sora drew his keyblade, a determined look on his face. "Dance water dance!" yelled Demyx again. Around him appeared 100 clones. "Not going easy on you this time, Sora," he said with a smirk. The four good guys, of course, weren't dumb. They each grabbed one of the Demyx clones and swung them around. In a few seconds, all 100 clones were gone. "Wow, you're better than I thought you'd be. Let me see what you think about THIS!" said Demyx. Suddenly, water shot out of the ground, sending Sora flying. He landed on the ground with a thud. "That had to hurt..." said Donald. As quickly as he had fallen, Sora sprung back up, and charged at Demyx. With eerie preciseness, he swung his keyblade at Demyx, knocking the sitar right out of his hand. "HEY! That's not very nice!" sputtered Demyx. With a smirk on his face, Sora responded, "Who said I have to be nice. It's you we're talking about here." With that, he swung his keyblade again, knocking Demyx to the ground. Demyx slowly got up, then grabbed his sitar. "That DOES it." He used the power of water to his benefits again, sending water spurting out of the ground everywhere. This time, the whole group got knocked off their feet. Riku, of course, had a plan. Why not distract Demyx, so he'd stop using water and talk. Then Sora and the other guys could sneak up behind him.. "Hey Demyx, where'd you get your name from, the big book of LOSERS?!" Demyx's head turned slowly towards Riku. He squinted and growled a reply, "TAKE THAT BACK! My mom gave it to me 'cause noone else in the world has the name Demyx." All the while. Sora, Donald, and Goofy, were sneaking ever closer to Demyx. Riku snorted, "Sure. So are you going to cut your hair, or are you going to let it grow out so you can pass for a girl." Demyx snappily replied, "NO. It's a nice style!" Sora, Donald, and Goofy were close behind Demyx. Laughing, Riku spoke one final insult, "Who said that, your grandma?!" "Wha--why you--" Demyx couldn't speak anymore, as Sora had just smacked his keyblade hard into his head. In addition to that, Donald and Goofy had walloped him in both legs. "Oh..my head...my legs...ow...it hurts." He moaned, sinking to the ground. "LEAVE ME ALONE!" With that he quickly got up, opened up a portal, and retreated. "HEY, COME BACK HERE! WE AREN'T FINISHED WITH YOU, KID!" Donald yelled, running towards the dissapearing portal and trying to jump into it. He ended up on the ground, of course. Grumbling, he got up and walked back over to Sora. "What a coward." Sora nodded, "Yeah, but something tells me we may not've seen the last of him." "Yeah, we didn't actually finish him off." Riku stated. With that, they all walked back to where Beast and Belle where. "It's all taken care of now, you guys." Sora said with a satisfied smile. "That's good to know." said Belle, beaming. "Yeah, just wish I could've came with you. I was going to give that kid a talking to," snapped Beast. Riku only shook his head and sighed, "If only all the Organization members would be that easy to scare."
Yes, of course. Sorry for taking so long to reply. :P Kairi sighed, as it was hard to resist the urge to hurt Donald. She only muttered a few curses under her breath, then hopped over to talk to King Mickey. "So, what is the plan here? What are we going to do?"
Can I be Kairi???
Smirking, she replied, "We'll remember the day, if we're alive. Here we are, picklocking a K-mart employees only door, someone's gonna find us eventually." Aerith laughed.
Kairi awoke and realized she'd dozed off in the chair, in a most ungraceful position. "O-oh, so sorry. It took a while to get here..I was a little tired." She blushed. Looking at the door, she wondered aloud, "Hmm, I wonder when Sora will get here..if he's coming?"
Aerith raised a brow, "Well, if you say so." She slowly started creeping towards the employees only door. "Hehe."
