It had been five years since Sora's first journey had begun and the three years of the War of the Keyblades was over. Many had died but not in vain, for after the long years of fighting they were the victors. The heartless were gone and thus Sora's journey home began.
Sora leaned his head back onto the cold hard surface of the gummi ship walls and closed his eyes, the scars of the war etched inside his thoughts. For so long he had fought and had finally succeded but he still felt empty and his heart ached with suffering in the void he couldnt fill. His fellow warriors cheered and sang and danced but he couldnt be happy with them. Riku sat down in the seat next to him and put his hand on Sora's shoulder.
Riku: You okay Sora?
(Sora slowly opened his eyes and looked at his friend)
Sora: Yeah, I'm fine.
Riku: I know you well enough to tell that is a lie, come on Sora whatever your feeling theres no doubt i feel it too.
Sora: I just feel...
Riku: empty?
Sora closed his eyes and nodded
Riku: Sora, you don't need to worry anymore, the war is over and its time you get to have your own life again. You should be proud Sora, if it werent for you this world would be lost to the heartless, you saved us all.
Sora: I know I should be proud, but I can't be...I just feel so detached..what if..what if shes not there Riku? What if something happened...I havent seen her for four years.. what if all of my fighting and suffering was for nothing..
Riku: It wasnt Sora. You know her...she would never break a promise, shes been waiting for you this whole time and she still is, but she won't have to wait any longer because you'll be there soon and the emptiness you feel will be filled.
(Sora closed his eyes again and leaned his head back against the wall but was sahken by Riku a few moments later)
Riku: Look Sora! there it is! we're home, we're finally home!
(Sora pressed his face against the window and took in the beautiful island scenery)
Sora: I cant believe it..(he breathed)
(The ship finally landed with a tremendous thud into the ocean waters and came to a stop on the dazzling sandy shores)
Riku: (smiling) Come on Sora, theres someone who will be wanting to see you.
(Shaking with anticipation Sora rose from his seat and walked out into the warm sunshine onto his homeland)
Riku: I forgot how beautiful this place looked (he closed his eyes and took in the smell of the ocean breeze, color filling his cold white face, worn from years of battle. He was beginning to look like he did when they first lived in there.)
Riku: Hey sora where are you go- (Before he could finish, Sora flew past him and began to run down the shore , scanning the place in search of her.)
(He searched and searched the entire island but she was no where to be found)
Sora: (his voice cracked with despiration) She has to be here, she just has to be..
(Longer he searched but there was still no luck, he fell to the ground and buried his face in the sand, crying...as he lifted his head, he then saw it, the secret place...their place.)
(He sprinted up to the the dark cave with a heavy heart and pushed through the branches covering the entrance and then he saw her. Kairi was knelt down by the drawing of them giving a paopu fruit to one another when she slowly turned around to face him. Both stared at one another for a long time...not believing their eyes were true to them. Then tears began to well in her large blue eyes, how he'd dreamed of those eyes for so long, that long red hair, and those soft warm lips. Was this real, was this really her standing right in front of him? it couldnt be...could it? She slowly stood up on shaking legs. She looked so different, but still the same in ways. Her angelic presence brought him to tears. And then, without warning she embraced him with such emotion and love. He embraced her back, and let his hands run over her entire body making sure she wasnt an allusion, he held her so tightly and with such power she couldnt move, but it didnt matter to her because she didnt want to. They would stay this way forever. He took her head in his hands and pressed her lips against his and all of the suffering of fighting and of lonliness left the both of them in that moment and was in turn replaced by a love that words themselves could not explain, a love so deep and pwerful it shook the very core of their souls. They kissed and kissed for what seemed like centuries, each kiss becoming more tender and loving every time. After a while the silence was broken when Riku entered the cave.)
Riku(smiling with tears in his eyes): Hey Kai.
(Kairi and Sora reluctantly pulled apart to face him)
Kairi(with tears of happiness in her eyes as well): Oh Riku!
(She threw her arms around him and they hugged for a few moments while Sora stared ecstatically at the both of them. Finally after all of these years the were home.)
**I gotta go for now but theres more to come i promise! just keep readin and ill keep writing!**
