Sora's bright blue orbs wandered downward, seeing Kairi's hand holding his a bit mroe tightly. His weak, slightly forced smile from before naturally grew. This time, though the smile was still small, it was real.
Sora returned Kairi's small smile with a weak one of his own. He couldn't think of anything else to say now--they had covered a lot of ground with that conversation. First what happened, and then general stuff about their respective identities. Yeah, that was a lot of stuff to cover in one sitting.
When we find a good stopping point for Sora and Kairi, we can hop back into Namine and Roxas and then you'll see. xD
Sora blinked, still looking at Kairi. Judging by her expression, she had no clue he had just heard her thoughts through his heart. "You're more powerful than you think," he said softly. "The light inside you was strong enough to defeat the most black darkness. It invaded your heart, but you won. That says something." He was referring to Dark Kairi, though he didn't dare say her name. It was still a very unpleasant topic.
I have no more ideas for them. xD So I'm just improving.
Sora shook his head slightly. "You can't blame yourself for that," he said softly, knowing what she was thinking. "Those men were evil--they don't care about connections, only their own desire for power. That's why they wanted Namine."
Nothing to be sorry for. I hate this too. DDx
Sora turned his head, sadly looking over at Kairi. Yes, her title. That caused some problems too. But at least they had been able to conquer those problems. Kairi used her light to fight her own battle in her heart, and then when Carter and Smith tried to take her--Sora looked away, furrowing his brows slightly. He hated Carter. Just like he knew Roxas hated Smith. Sora had come to Kairi's rescue when she was held hostage and also when she was with Roxas trying to recover Namine. It really was unfortunate that people in other worlds knew who they were. After all, they just wanted normal lives now...
We'll do what we did last time--I'll delete my last one and you repost yours. =/
Well, hopefully it won't be too bad. =/ You really can't help it though--just blame the hairdresser. Hopefully. D8
"The one thing I don't like about the Keyblade," Sora started softly, "is that it seems to attract trouble. And the people closest to me suffer because of it." Whether the trouble was specifically related to his Keyblade or not, bad situations always seemed to start with him. This was partially why he felt like he needed to be the hero--if it started with him, then it should end with him, too.
So you'll have to go in tomorrow, I guess. =/ And Tuesday unless you're getting your hair fixed in the morning.
Sora nodded wordlessly. He wouldn't admit to Kairi that sometimes he thought the Keyblade had made a mistake. There had to be better wielders out there...somewhere. There had to have been somebody somewhere that could do much more good with it than he ever could. It wasn't too often that he allowed himself to dwell on these thoughts, because of his natural optimism he pushed it away before it could really sink in.
Ooo, that's cool. =) Hope you get your groove back. xD And with your hair, that stinks. =(
Sora exhaled a breath, continuing. "I have this burden because somehow Fate knew I could handle it." No matter how hard it is sometimes, he thought. It was true that because of his burden as a Keyblade Master, he felt the weight of the worlds on his shoulders. And he was only fifteen! Some days, it just didn't feel right, having this burden. His heart often ached for the worlds far off, but he knew that there was nothing he could do to ease the suffering of those oppressed by the dark. Heh, some hero...he thought sadly.
Not too much, just looking for cheap formal dresses on the internet. =) But I gave up a little while ago and now I'm doing some homework, haha. You?
Sora shook his head, looking down at his lap. "You're wrong," he said softly. "I do have to be the hero." After everything he had been through, he was used to his friends depending on him. With all the worlds he visited, he knew his friends couldn't have made it very far without his help. Like helping to defeat super villains and Organization XIII. He knew Donald and Goofy couldn't have done it without him. He wasn't being cocky thinking that way; it was a fact. And, thinking of recent situations, he knew that he hadn't had a choice yesterday. If anybody was going to stay back and be a sacrifice so the rest could get away, it had to have been him. That's just how most of the situations worked out.
Howdy partner! xP
"Kairi," Sora started softly, knowing that he needed to say what was on his mind. "I'm always the one physically hurt because I purposely set myself up so that if anyone has to take the fall, it's me. It's what I need to do to protect you guys." And by "guys", he meant Kairi, Namine and Roxas.
Sora stayed silent. He couldn't argue with Kairi's latest point, because she was right--he was the one who always took the fall in battle to protect his friends. But he purposely put himself in that position so Roxas wouldn't have to. After all, Roxas was like a brother to him, and Sora always would protect him as if he were really a blood relative. Same for the girls. If they ever would get in the way of danger, he would be ready to sacrifice himself for them. Like what happened when Roxas and the girls were going to the gummi ship yesterday.
