"Yay!" Hiro flew upwards in a spiral. "Me like new Kairi. Let's play race game. We race to...." he looked around the room. "next wall." he chose a simple target. Me gonna win! Hiro took off to the wall. He looked back at Mika and ran into the wall. "Oopy........ me won." He giggled.
"Yay game!"Hiro spun around. "What game?" Kai's heart skipped a beat. "That couldn't have been........ Garxena?" Kai ran outside, letting her legs carry her as fast a possible to the explosion. She shielded her eyes, avoiding a falling piece of metal. "No....... my Gummi ship....." Kai turned her back on the remains of the ship. She lowered her head and closed her eyes. "Just another loss I have to live with."
"We go to fun place now?" Hiro smiled. Me think Kairi smell different... Kai leaned against a wall, looking out the window. Where are you, Garxena?
"Aw you found me. Now you hide and me find you." Hiro floated out from under the couch and closed his eyes. "One, two, uuuum.... three! Four, five...."
Hiro flew under a couch, giggling. "Me hiding. Now you try to find me."
Hiro floated around Xarden's head. "Me wanna play a game. Me hide you find me."
Hiro waddled over to Xarden and sniffed him. "Me here. Play game?" He floated to face level with Xarden.
Hiro dropped to the floor and waddled away. "He's really sad.... he can't even fly." Kai folded her arms. "Best let him be. I don't know what's up with him when he gets like this. It's a Moogle thing I guess." OOC: g2g see u the day after tomorrow
"No fun place with Silax?" Hiro pouted cutely. "Hiro," Kai said, slightly motherly, "Silax didn't want take you to a fun place. He was going to make you Dark." Her tone was a bit impatient. "But Dark is scary...... me no like a lot of anything..... no fun place?" Hiro's wings sagged. "No Hiro. No fun place." Kai went through the portal.
Kai shook her head. "Kairi's right. I know when I'm out-skilled." She didn't bother to look at Silax. "We're gone." She walked out the door and up the stairs. Hiro flew into the cell that Kairi was in. Me hid in here.... no one find me and then me get to go to fun place!
"We're not interested in that 'thing' right now." Kai glared at Silax. Changes quiet quickly. She put a hand on Kairi's shoulder. "You okay?" Hiro hid behind Silax. "Me no like this game...." He quivered.
OOC: :sweat: BIC: Hiro floated around Silax and the Kairi replica. "Hiro come over here." Kai waved to him. She held Hiro with her free arm. "Xeal, let's just go. He doesn't need Kairi anymore." Kai went to Kairi's cell and busted the door open. She helped Kairi out. "I picked up another one of Garxena's friends." She explained. "We should get out of here." She sheathed her Doublesword. Where's Yeifou when you need him? Hiro squirmed out of Kai's arm. "Me wanna go to fun place." He said, slightly pouty.
OOC::nono: BIC: Hiro smiled and flew over to Silax. "Fun place now?" He sniffed the Kairi replica and floated back a little. "Icky..." "Silax." Kai put her Doublesword back together. "You got what you want, now let us take Kairi back."
Kai pushed on the door. "Well what do ya know?" she smiled as it opened. "You've got a good range of weapons. But," She unsheathed her Doublesword and split it in two. "this is the best for me." She walked in. "Silax, let Kairi go." Hiro sat on Xeal's head. "We go get Kairi now. Then we go to fun place?"
Hiro turned upside down. "Huh?" Kai kept walking. "He's not the brightest of the bunch. He's got a lot to learn." They reached the bottom of the stairs. "Okay....... how to we get past this?" she observed the black and white door. Hiro bumped into the door and turned rightside up again. "Ooh! Pretty stipes. Is they items?" Kai smirked. "No Hiro. It's just a pattern." She ran her hand over the colors. "It's like a lock....... but I don't know how to open it...." Hiro hit his head against the door. "Open." Kai shook her head. "You'll hurt yourself that way." She held him, still examining the door.
"I've used my Doublesword for years now. It's the best weapon I could have." Kai walked over to the door. She tried to open it with no success. "I'm not wasting time." she kicked it down. "I've done that so many times as a world protector. It gets rather easy after the millionth time." She smiled to herself. "Here we go." She said more seriously, heading down the stairway. Hiro bobbed after her. "Me wanna see the fun place.... Silax!...... was talking about. Me got another name! Silax say he take me to a fun place." Hiro smiled brightly. "No Hiro. Silax lied to you. He doesn't do anything that's fun. Trust me and stay with me or Kairi or Xeal. If he tries to take you, you get out of there okay? Don't let him touch you." Kai kept a slightly quick pace. Me wanna go to fun place.... Hiro floated back to Xeal. "Come new friend. We go find Kairi." He flew back to Kai.
"They went through some door in Ansem's study. There was a long descending staircase. And it was dark." Kai went through the portal with Xeal behind her. "I don't know what's down there. I don't even know if we can get through again." She woke up Hiro. "Be on you're guard. And remember, Hiro, this isn't a game." Hiro floated around their heads. "No game. We go find pretty girl........ Ka.... Kai..... Kairi!" He spun in a circle. "Me got name right!" Kai rolled her eyes and smiled. "The littlest things make a Moogle so happy." she muttered.
Kai eyed Xeal. "So was the Telren replica. And Kyo. And Riku." Kai rocked Hiro. "I know she can handle herself. It's Kairi that I'm worried about. Come if you like, I'm going to find her." Kai headed off to Ansem's study. This is going to be another walk. Nobodies are lucky they can portal.
Kai's face saddened. "I don't know where she is. Last I saw, she was with Kyo and they were fleeing a bunch of soldiers. I think Riku went to look for them too." Hiro sank to the ground. "Me tired." He yawned and lay on his back, snoring. "Jeez Hiro." Kai picked him up. "I want to find her just as much as you." She addressed Xeal. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Garxena held Kyo's head. He's bleeding badly. I have to do something. Garxena tried not to cry. "Kyo please, say something. Let me know you're okay." A tear escaped her eye. Riku came up slowly behind Garxena. He looked at her and Kyo. What happened? Did he...... protect her? But that Haku guy said....... He put a hand on Garxena's shoulder. "Garxena, are you-?" Garxena jerked away from him. "Kyo, don't let go. Don't leave me." Her face streaked with tears. I'm loosing everyone.... Riku stepped back and stayed quiet.
Hiro floated off Xeal. "New friend sad?" He flipped in the air, trying to make Xeal laugh. "Seems you've been a great help to her. But I know she's with a good friend. Kyo was his name." Kai smiled, watching Hiro. "Maybe you could help me out. A good friend of Garxena, and a friend of mine, is in danger. We have to help her. I don't know what Silax wants with Kairi... and that's what worries me most." Kai went over and held Hiro. You make it hard to be serious, you silly little Moogle. "Will you help?" she asked Xeal.
