As time went on, Monstro grew sleepy. He opened his mouth in a massive yawn, causing water to pour in rapidly. The water flowed in faster than it had last time, and it caught everyone by surprise. BHK (Ted) wasn't too badly off, he had been sitting on a large pile of wood. The water didn't even get halfway up his pile. Larxene saw the rush of water, and managed to climb up on another pile of wood, but she got a little wet. Poor Axel hadn't been paying attention at all, and he got knocked over and soaked to the bone. He was washed back to the back, where all the new stuff had come in. The Shadows were surrounding something, and were eeping excitedly. Axel struggled to his feet, slipping in the water several times, till he finally got to the crowd of Heartless. The Shadows had surrounded Sora, who was lying unconcious in the water. Axel blinked, then rubbed his eyes, "Hey! Larxene, Ted! The Shadows found another kid!" BHK (Ted) and Larxene came running until they reached Axel. "Someone else got drug into here too?" Larxene asked. Axel nodded and pointed at the Shadows, "They found some kid with spikey hair lying down...he must have got washed in here too..." Larxene made her way through the hoard of Shadows, they scooted out of the way of their leader, until she reached Sora. She picked him up by the scruff of his shirt, and set him upright. Sora just fell over backwards. Larxene pulled him up to a sitting position again, this time, holding him in place. She looked at the others, "How are we going to wake him up?..." BHK (Ted) looked at Sora, "He'll wake up on his own eventually." Axel looked at BHK (Ted), "But, I want to talk to him now!" BHK (Ted) sighed, "It's probably best to leave him alone..." Axel stared at BHK (Ted), "Why?" BHK (Ted) shook his head, "Because." "Because why?" Axel asked. BHK (Ted) smacked his forehead, "Never mind...Just do what you want..." he said as he walked away, back to his perch on the wood. Axel cheered, then looked at Larxene, "Why don't you zap him, that might wake him up!" Larxene glared at Axel, "You idiot. We want him awake, not dead. And, with all this water, I'd probably end up frying us all. No electricity." Axel blinked, then looked at Sora. "Maybe some fire would wake him up..." Larxene nodded in agreement, "Yeah...he might be cold...there's enough wood to make a bonfire in here..." she said, then saw the look in Axel's eyes. "No! Axel! Don't do what I think you are going to do!" Axel grinned, then set fire to Sora's shoes. Larxene's eyes widened, and she splashed water on the fire till it went out. "Axel, that was stupid! Are you trying to kill him?" Axel blinked, "No, it was just a little fire..." Larxene sighed, "You aren't helping at all..." The Shadows had been creeping closer to Sora, till one reached out and gently poked his cheek. At this, Sora jumped straight up in the air, "Yikes!" then landed rather undignifiedly on the ground. Axel looked at the Shadow, "Good job, little guy! You woke him up!" The Shadow just blinked at Axel. Sora was looking around nervously, "Heartless...freaky people...wet..." he said, his left eye twitching. Larxene looked at Sora, "Don't worry about the Shadows, they listen to me, and I won't tell them to attack you, unless you make me mad." Sora looked up at her, "Then you are a Heartless?" he said uneasily. Larxene shook her head, "No, they just decided I was their leader, they don't seem to be too bright. Anyways, I'm Larxene, the moron over there is Axel, and Ted, the cool guy, is in the front of Monstro. What's your name?" Sora looked at Larxene, then to Axel, "Sora's name is Sora." he stated. Axel blinked, "Ok...but what is your name?" Sora replied, "Sora is Sora." Axel twitched, "I know that whoever is Sora is named Sora, but what is your name?!" he yelled. Sora looked up at Axel and sniffed slightly, and pointed at himself, "Sora." he said, his voice quivering. Larxene glared at Axel, "Look, you made him upset! Apparently, his name is Sora, and he speaks in third person." Axel blinked, "There's only one of him." Larxene looked at Axel, "What?" Axel looked at Larxene, confused, "You said he was three people, but there is only one of him." Larxene smacked her forehead and sighed deeply, "Third person, Axel, third person. It means you will not say 'Me' or 'I', but you say your name instead." Sora nodded in agreement, "Sora says Sora!" Axel growled, "That's stupid! So, I would say, 'Axel wants Cocoa Krispies', instead of 'I want Cocoa Krispies'?" Larxene nodded, "Exactly!" Sora's stomach growled, and he looked up at Larxene, "Sora hungry..." Larxene nodded, "There's probably some fish around here, we'll make a meal for everyone." Sora nodded in agreement, "Sora likes fish!" he then got up and started poking through the rubbish. Larxene looked at Axel, "You keep an eye on him, until I need you to fry the fish." Axel grumbled, "Oh...all right..." Larxene went off to the front, looking for fish. Axel looked back at Sora, "What are you looking for?" he asked. Sora glanced up at Axel, "Sora wants a snack..." Axel shrugged, "Whatever...there isn't any food in here, but go ahead and waste your time..." Sora nodded and continued digging through the garbage. Sadly, Axel had forgotten that the wave had brought new garbage, otherwise, he might have found what Sora did. Sora had been searching for a while, until he squeaked happily. He brought out a partially full box of Cocoa Krispies. He munched on them happily until Axel's ears twitched. Axel looked up at the ceiling, concentrating. "Only one food crunches like that..." He sniffed the air gently, "Only one food smells like that..." He looked at Sora dangerously, "The Cocoa Krispies will be mine!" He tackled Sora, and Sora squeaked in fear, but clutched his box of cereal tightly. The two tussled for a moment, pulling the box back and forth. Axel yelled, "Mine!" Sora yelled, "Sora's!" until the box ripped completely in half, dumping the small remainder of the Cocoa Krispies into the water, where they soon flowed out of sight, down Monstro's throat. Axel stared at Sora, then burst out into tears. Sora, upset that Axel was upset, started crying too. Larxene came running when she heard their sobs. "Ok guys, what happened?..." She then saw the torn box in Sora's hand. "Ok....How did that get in here?... It must have come in with the wave and Sora..." Sora looked at Larxene, calmed down some, but Axel was still sobbing. Sora sniffed, "Sora found a box of yummy treats in pile, Axel wanted yummy treats. Axel yelled and attacked Sora. Axel pulled on box, Sora pulled back. Box broke. Yummy treats go bye bye." Larxene glared at Axel, "Stop your whining, it was only cereal!" Axel sniffed, "ONLY cereal? ONLY cereal? You say this about the greatest thing to ever exist in the entire universe?" Larxene sighed, "Axel...your Cocoa Krispies addiction needs to be stopped. You are becoming violent over cereal. I think you are in withdrawl..." Axel nodded, "I need Cocoa Krispies...and he denied them to me!" he said crazily. Sora eeped and hid behind Larxene, peeking around slightly at Axel. Larxene glared at Axel, "Axel, get over it. You need to learn to live without Cocoa Krispies. Now come and help me with the fish. Ted cleaned them, I got them ready, and now it's your turn to cook them!" Axel grumbled, knowing he was defeated...for now. "I'll get my Cocoa Krispies one day, if it's the last thing I do!" he said, as he walked towards the front. Sora came out from behind Larxene, and she asked him, "Are you ok?" Sora nodded, "Sora is fine. Sora just a little scared." Larxene nodded, "Axel can be scary when it comes to Cocoa Krispies. Would you like me to send some Shadows with you as bodyguards." Sora shook his head violently, "Sora doesn't like Shadows! Sora usually whacks Shadows!" He summoned his Kingdom Key and showed it to Larxene. Larxene shook her head, "Don't whack these Shadows, they won't hurt you, if you won't hurt them. If it would make you feel better, I'll tell them to stay away from you." Sora nodded, "Sora would appreciate that..." Larxene looked at the Shadows hovering nearby, "Shadows, please stay away from Sora, he's not used to your kind. He would like it if you wouldn't come near him. Spread the word to the others." The Shadows nodded, melting into puddles of darkness and vanishing. Sora breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled at Larxene, looking very much relieved. "Thanks..." he said. Larxene nodded, "You are welcome. Now, let's go make sure Axel doesn't burn the fish..." and they walked off together, to the front of the whale.
