Kairi. The Princess Of Heart.
((Yeah, kinda busy… University, you know. X’D They aren’t going easy on us, just because the weather is nice! And thanks! I really try my best with Xion! I think she’s such a great character and so much fun to play~))
“The people in my dream… I was always wondering… But now I know, for sure…”
Xion looked at Kairi’s charm, smiling. “There was a girl who looks like me in those dreams… That must have been you… And… the boys…”
“…That’s right. That one boy’s name… It’s Sora. Sora…
…Kairi? You… You are important to Sora, right? I… I just have a feeling…”
“…Say… what kind of person is Sora? Could you… tell me more about this?”
Xion found herself strangely curious about that one boy, for a reason she couldn’t quite understand.
((Ohhhh! Fully understood! XD That sucks, but is it almost the end of the year for you? No problem at all~ Xion is such a wonderful character~))
Kairi nodded, biting at her lower lip.
“And Riku is the other boy?”
The two boys she hadn’t heard from in such a long time, and it made her kind of sad to think about it.
“Xion, I have a quick question for you but I’ll keep telling you about Sora. Er- Do you knwo why we look alike?”
Then she heard the other girls question, smiling at her.
“Sora’s a wonderful guy. He’s a hero, even though he doesn’t like to admit it most of the time. He’d do anything to help anyone he could, he’s always up for an adventure. Uhm-“
Kairi hesitated, trying to think of what else she wanted to include about Sora. She could include anything and everything goo and it would more than likely describe her best friend. She shook her head quickly.
“Well… I think you’d like him, quite a lot.”
Xion replied to the question about her dream.
“They are laughing… in that dream. Always. But sometimes they fight too,” she replied. “I think they are friends… They are so much like us… Me and the boys… So I think they must be the same, right? Friends, like us… Hm?”
When Kairi showed Xion the Oathkeeper, the black haired girl took a close look at it for a while.
“You… made a Charm from them? …The shape is pretty…”
She kept looking at the Oathkeeper. Something in the back of her head was moving, like this thing she was looking at… was special. Very special.
Xion couldn’t help it. She felt like there was a strong force coming from the star-shaped talisman in Kairi’s hands. Almost like it was calling her, urging her to do something…
She stretched out her hand, as if to touch it… But while she was still moving it, pictures appeared in her mind. Xion closed her eyes. There it was again… that feeling of remembering something… Suddenly… Suddenly the scene was so clear…
Slowly, she opened her eyes again.
“…Say… Kairi…? Can I really ask you anything? Just as it comes to me? Because… There is one thing I’d really like to know from you…”
“I’d like you to tell me… About that boy in the red clothing. The one who holds this dear…”
She pointed at the Oathkeeper.
“…Can you tell me about him?”
((OoC: The first? Really? That’s a pity, you are a great Kairi and pull this meeting with Xion off really well! Heh~! As for reaction images, I get mine by using my PC’s screen-cut feature on Manga Pages. Though, I don’t know how much older Kairi there is in the KH Manga so far… you’d probably be more sucessful searching younger Kairi… I would help you, if I had the time. ;_;))
“You and the boys? What boys?”
The question came out simply. And Kairi nodded.
“Yeah, they must be friends. Um… Do you know who those people in your dream are?”
It was possible it was anyone, it could even be made up, but Kairi just had a feeling. It was in the thoughts organizing themselves in the back of her head and the feeling deep in her gut that made her want to know so badly. Then a smile spread on her face again.
“Yeah, I made it when I was younger. I made it so my friends and I could leave the island and it would bring us luck. But-“
She trailed off, shaking her head. But then her attention focused again on Xion, wondering what she was doing. The expression changed on her face as she heard her next question.
“Yeah, anything at all, Xion. I may not have a very good answer but,” she shrugged. “I’ll always try.”
(The boy in red clothing?)
She felt a pang of hurt run though her. This girl was talking about Sora. Sora, who she hadn’t seen in well… Kairi couldn’t even manage to count the days.
“Sora. He- He’s my best friend. Though, I don’t know where he ran off to again. He’s always running off on some mission, trying to find some trouble to get in. I could tell you a lot about him. But…. What is it you want to know?”
((ooc: Mhmmm! Thank you so much~ Sometimes I don’t feel as if I do Kairi enough justice, but I try :3. You’re a wonderful Xion! Hmmm, I’ll go look for some :D Thanks! Ahahaha… Are you really busy?))
Same face. Just not the same hair. What was going on here? Kairi couldn’t put it all together. Wasn’t she supposed to be the only one who looked like herself? Or- Was she like Namine? Another- Her!? Couldn’t be. Her mouth opened slightly as she tried to say something.
“Uh…. I’m Kairi.”
She tried to give a small smile, some gesture that she wasn’t totally freaked out or anything. But that wasn’t going to happen, and that was quite clear. She just kept staring at this other girl.
“No, it- It can’t be.”
Kairi glanced around quickly. Same island, same place it always was and always had been. She then glanced down at herself. And some old Kairi. The only new thing to her was Xion.
“Xion…. Why are you here?”
((OoC: Ah, so Kairi sees Xion’s true face, just like Naminé? Nice, that means I get to use my Xion Reaction Images~! I like them. And no prob for not saying hi right away~! ^___^ It’s no obligation, I think.))
“…Kairi…” Xion repeated to herself. She closed her eyes, like she was trying to remember something.
“…I know that name… I know I heard it before. It sounds so familiar…
…Ah, I remember… right that dream… A Beach just like this one… Two boys and a girl…
…Heh…”
Xion looked up at Kairi.
“…Excuse me. This is weird, isn’t it? … For me too. …You know, there should be a hundred things I want to ask now. But, somehow… I just can’t come up with anything.
…
…Why I am here…?”
“…Because I like this place. I was collecting my favorite seashells… Like always.”
That said, Xion opened her fist and showed a few Thalassa shells she had gathered to Kairi.
((ooc: Ahahaha! That’s what I’ve always thought at least :3. I like them too~ I have issues finding ones of Kairi though. I’m not totally sure why, perhaps I just don’t look hard enough. ^^ I’m so excited for this! You’re the first Xion who has shown up that I’ve actually roleplayed with and it makes me so happy~))
Kairi nodded slowly, trying to take in everything the other girl was saying. But she stopped finally a curious look on her face. “A dream? What was happening in the dream?”
((Ooc: :3 I’m on my phone and I’m not totally remembering how to put things in italics so we’re just going to pretend her thoughts are :D))
(Is she talking about Sora, Riku, and me? And how would she know those things anyway?)
“Uh-” Kairi felt a pang of something. She wasn’t even sure what the feeling was. Maybe it was a mixture of things. “No, it’s fine. Really, no need to worry about it. Just ask the questions as they come to you. I’m sure I’m just as curious and confused as you are right now.”
But after she saw the seashells a smile appeared on her face. “Xion, it looks like we have something in common.” Kairi stuck her hand into her pocket and pulled out her Lucky Charm, holding it out for Xion to see.
Kairi tried to watch for any sign of a reaction with this hooded figure. There was no picking it up if there was, it just wasn’t possible.
(What’s going on?…. Who is this?….
And why are they here?)
Kairi took a step towards this other person, slowly and carefully.
“Who are you?” She repeated.
There was something going on, she could tell. This wasn’t normal, she had to figure it out though, there was some connection happening. Kairi could just feel it, there was a feeling, rising up inside of her. What was going on?
“M…My name… is Xion.”
She didn’t bring out much more at first, being much too stunned to talk a lot. The other girl seemed to feel the same. She too, seemed confused. No wonder, Xion thought, given they looked almost like twins… right? That was the most likely reason…
But why was that? Why did this girl look so much like her? Why were they here.
“…And… what is your name…?” Xion finally managed to ask, just when another possibility came to her.
“Is this… a dream…?”
Same face. Just not the same hair. What was going on here? Kairi couldn’t put it all together. Wasn’t she supposed to be the only one who looked like herself? Or- Was she like Namine? Another- Her!? Couldn’t be. Her mouth opened slightly as she tried to say something.
“Uh…. I’m Kairi.”
She tried to give a small smile, some gesture that she wasn’t totally freaked out or anything. But that wasn’t going to happen, and that was quite clear. She just kept staring at this other girl.
“No, it- It can’t be.”
Kairi glanced around quickly. Same island, same place it always was and always had been. She then glanced down at herself. And some old Kairi. The only new thing to her was Xion.
“Xion…. Why are you here?”
