Looking for her friends [open/Sora/Riku]

[Kairi]

Kairi had left Destiny’s islands again, in her own mysterious way. In fact, she had no idea how she had gotten to Radiant Garden, but she didn’t care. As of now, she knew Namine was a separate being again and she really wanted to find Sora and Riku. She wondered if Roxas was also his own being again. She liked him and Namine together. They seemed like such good friends.

Kairi continued to walk through the destroyed like city. The place was looking better, since she heard that some of Sora’s friends were fixing it. That was nice of them to do so. Kairi had remembered being her only once in the castle. She remembered she was taken there by a replica of Riku.

Kairi stopped a moment when she looked at the people who were out, helping. This place was so filled with hope, everyone seemed to be doing their part to help out, rebuild. Kairi looked around to see if she could spot Sora or Riku but there was no luck. The red haired girl let out a small sigh and she started walking to the castle.

Kairi stopped when she reached the balcony. She looked over, and off in the distance. Kairi felt like she was home here.

[riku]

Riku's memories of this world were small, few and far in between. His first time here, was a memory tainted in anger and darkness... but people had a strange way of fighting it off. Now, it went under a completely different name, and was quickly and carefully being rebuilt. But here he was, standing in Radiant Garden. Sora had babbled at one point about the people he had met here; and Riku not wanting to be rude and holding back a snicker at how expressive his friend was, had pretended to listen.

He himself had few ties to this place, no connections other than a brief interaction with ducks that looked too much like donald for him to think about. The boy shuddered, the last thing the world needed were clones of that feathered grouch. Anyways, opinions of Sora's strange friends that he really couldn't judge after becoming so well acquainted with Mickey Mouse aside... he was looking for nothing -which was a lovely change of pace thank you- yet had the feeling that someone was here.

The bond between he and the red-head wasn't as strong as the one between she and Sora; but they were a trio. Even if Riku had done a bit of drifting over the past couple of years, they were his best friends that he had fought so hard for. So when Kairi came into view, a small smile tugged at one side of his lips, a pleasant surprise. The silverette had come to appreciate those after being accustomed to surprises on a completely different side of the scale. "Seeing you so far from home makes me wonder if you're lost." The tall somewhat lanky boy lightly teased. She seemed to be good at that; he and Sora seemed to take turns in finding her afterward.

"Either way it's good to see you Kai." She looked like she belonged here. This castle was pretty much abandoned, but a simple imagination could see the place when it was flourishing. See it before the darkness came and destroyed it... Kairi was a princess so it all seemed to just click. "Is the princess enjoying this world's castle?"

[Kairi]

Kairi looked at the familiar silver haired boy who had walked up to her. She was happy once again that she had found her friend Riku. She moved over a bit so that he had room to stand next to her. She shook her head and laughed. “only a little.” she smiled to him, pulling her long reddish hair over her left shoulder. “I’ve missed you and Sora.” she smiled, walking over to him and hugging him.

Kairi looked at Riku when she moved back to the railing of the balcony and sat down on it. Her feet covered with her pink sneakers dangled as she was too short to reach the floor from on top of the railing. She waited for Riku to sit beside her. “so how have you been Riku?” Kairi asked with her bright and cheery smile. She looked at the castle and wondered what would happen to it since it was abandoned. She looked back to Riku and sighed.

Kairi shook her head at his statement. “wasn’t this worlds castle mine at one point?” Kairi asked, still with out a clear memory. She looked to him and she then said “besides, I think I just like being called Kairi and not princess. It sounds to weird.” she shrugged.
