Chapter 4 – You're nothing special

The waves brushes against the soft sand leaving small fragments of liquid behind on the some-what empty shores. The glistening sun burning intently on the unshaded areas. Endless shining on the perfectly crafted sand stretched which stretched top to bottom, with the water dancing up and down on it's side. Above the sand, layed a series of wooden structures. The cliffs had designs cascading all around them leading to small tree-house type patios. Small shacks rounded the ground along the shoreline, one of which lead to a constructed bridge, crossing a distance into the water to a small counter-island. This island was something simple, yet noticeable while it held nothing more then one paopu tree.

Down by the shacks a small girl sat impatiently, her body absorbing the intense heat. Her red hair shone brightly in the sunlight, curving in all directions as her head fell forward and made contact with her knees. Her body had become a perfectly shaped ball and she began to weep like anyone was there to hear her afterall.

"W-when will he b-b-be here... h-he p-prom-mised..." her words were muffled as deeper breathes of the tropical air were inhaled with each word. She tightened her arms again and winced at the grasp on her legs. She was causing herself pain, but didn't care since he was causing much more. A small object rested beside her slowly becoming drowned in the sand blown over it. She placed on of her hands on it , squeezing hard before tossing it upwards. The star shaped object elevated in the air for a few seconds before landing a couple of meters away, close to the shoreline. The small red-head stared at it blankly for just as long. The water seemed to attack it from all directions, reminding her to rub her eyes. She lifted her numb body up to walk in the opposite direction.

"He's not coming... I should of known better... I really should have."

She strode forward, keeping her eyes fixed on the boat which would take her home. She sighed deeply and turned back around, regretting throwing the object. Her eyes widened. It was now in the water being slowly drifted out to sea. She felt herself turning in it's direction involuntarily. Her chest dug deep as if the item was digging on it. She inhaled quickly before deserting her sandals and rushing into the salty water to retrieve it. The cold water pushed into her as she made her way out to sea. It seemed so much further away then it looked from the shore. She felt some water enter her mouth and gasped. The continuous waves bashing into her fragile body from all directions. Pushing herself under the water, it become easier to avoid the waves but the rush still sent her backwards. There was no air, and she was running low on oxygen. Eventually she was in reaching distance of the star. Her hand grabbed it tightly and she dived above the surface, only to meet a large wave which pushed her back under fiercely. Her body smashed against a sharp rock below the surface, causing her to fall limp and to drift softly to the seemingly blue sand. Her consciousness was slowly fading and she closed her eyes.

She felt everything go cold. Everything except for an hand. It wrapped around her wrist firmly, dragging her to the surface.

"Kairi... Kairi, open you eyes..." the voice was frightened... no.. terrified. She didn't open her eyes.

"Kairi, please, Kairi!"

She felt the sand below her and her body shook rapidly. The arms never seemed to let go.

"Kairi..."

"Sor-.."

Kairi's eyes shot open to face the blue wall. She turned over slowly, feeling nauseous. The room was lit in the moonlight as Kairi scanned the area. Her bedroom. She was almost a little too thankful that it was just a dream. Examining her clock, her eyes widened at the sight of the digits 5 and two 0s. She sighed deeply and got out of bed, almost losing her footing. "It felt so real..." her words were short of breath as she stumbled towards her bathroom. Soon the realization of how wet her hair was seeped in. The air grabbed at her mouth tightly, wanting her to speak the words that were running laps around her mind. However all in vane as she silenced the thoughts and began to get ready for school.

"All a dream." She scolded herself strictly, "Just a dream. That's all it is."

She strictly made her way back over to her bed and stared blankly at the floor, examining the moonlight once more. Kairi made her way over to the window and opened the two large doors leading to her balcony. The floor now seemed to shift as the shadow of the curtain blow softly in the wind. Musing slightly, she softly leant over the balcony to get a clear view of the beach in the distance.

"Everything fell apart there..."

With that, Kairi made her way back into the bathroom to prepare for the long day ahead.

"Huh!" The spiky haired brunette opened his eyes marginally and stared at the student in front of him. He felt a bitter sensation rushed over him as his surrounding gripped him tightly. The floor was cold... wait.. floor? Sora jumped up rapidly and looked around the room at the gawking audidence he had apparently attracted. Embarrassed and as red as a clowns nose, the clown himself made a run for it. Once again to skip class, and completely forgetting the student in front of him. He made his way into the outside lunch area and sat down abruptly, attempting to hide the intense trembling which had possessed his body. Embarrassment can do a lot to the boy who rarely gets seen in class. He closed his eyes, hoping to recapture the memory or dream he was having. "Gah... stupid school." he said quietly to himself.

"School can be good while it lasts, but I've never really been much of an optimist anyway." An unexpected reply made Sora jump once more to see a blonde girl sitting opposite him. The girl who he had gladly sent flying to the floor only yesterday. He gulped quickly and she laughed. "Hello, Sora, my name is Namine. I'm your selected student mentor. Honestly, I am a little scared to be put to such a responsibility... especially over you, but will try my hardest to do the headmaster and myself proud."

"What about me? What will you try your hardest to do with me?" Sora asked, feeling slightly offended for being left out of the sentence.

"I plan to make life... easier for you, while, of course, you attend regular classes. They aren't that hard, why do you avoid them?"

Sora was getting irritated with her already, but also curious what possible reason she had for accepting this job. His conclusion was simply put to her having a 'big head' and thinking she can do anything. "Oh really? What makes you so special then? No-one can change me. Especially not some little new kid with no friends who wants to try and befriend me. The guy who sent you flying into the street."

Namine was stunned by his cold reaction but pushed forwards. After receiving the job request, she had decided to give it a shot seeing as so many people had given up on him before. She also knew his statement was wrong. "I do have a friend, for your information, and her name is..." Namine was nervous. She had heard rumors that Sora still kept all memories and sometimes would get angry from hearing things about Kairi but decided it was worth a shot, "Kai-.."

"RINGGG"

Namines head jerked around fast to face the school bell a few meters away which was now vibrating intensely. Her head twisted back round to where the brunette was placed to notice he was nowhere to be seen. She let out a long sigh and moved sluggishly to her next class. Kairi would be expecting her to tell her everything... when she found out, that is. The blonde closed her eyes to picture the red-heads face and chuckled. However, the rest of her walk was as depressive as a funeral home.

"This is going to be harder then I thought..."

*

"HUH?!?!!!" Kairi's screeching made the blonde's glare seem endless as she studied her friends blank face. "How the... hell.... did.. yo...you... get put.. in..t-to... THAT JOB?!" she sounded somewhat concerned but had a more speechless expression. Yet she was able to speak quite clearly. Surprisingly. The red-head was now stretching quite far across the table, invadinging Namine's private bubble. Namine knew that Kairi would most likely react like this but she couldn't really respond since she didn't know how to answer. It just sort of... happened.

*****FLASHBACK*****

"H-he-heh... aren't you stu-students lucky?" the headmasters constantly stuttering made Namine clench her fists. She didn't usually get annoyed by people but this was ridiculous. The teacher couldn't even pronounce basic words without the stutter kicking into over drive. She tried to ignore it by examining the other students gathered in the office. All of which had extremely confused faces. It didn't help that they were stood in a line either, infact it was quite a bit more intimidating. Namine bit her lip. A punishments of sorts after being enrolled for such a short time would most likely be... very bad.

"I h-ha-ve a prop-pro-ersition for o-one of y-ya-hooo" Namine felt her throat go dry, "How wa-would yo-you la-like to per-so-so-nally men-to-tor Sor-aaa Hi-hik-kari?"

"What...?"

Namine felt her words dry up. That name was the name of the 'evil' child who has decided to use her head as a football (A/N: British Soccer version o_o)and played Mr. Im-Too-Bad-Ass-To-Apologize. However, before she could protest against this very idea the blonde soon felt all the presences beside her disappear. They had all stepped behind her. Making her, the only one standing forward. Almost as if she had involuntarily agreed to do the job.

"Great, Namine! Can you start today?"

"I..I.. uh.. me.. him... bad.. noo... ah... wha..???" was all she could say.

*****END FLASHBACK*****

Kairi felt her eyes widening beyond belief at the story. Namine stared glumly at the table, feeling rather disappointed in her first encounter with the 'charge'. The table had fallen silent as both girls sat there reliving the story in their minds. Namine... and Sora... having to help each other (Mostly helping Sora) and Namine being friends with Kairi? Fate was messing with them. Kairi stood stood abruptly and decided to leave school early. The dream she had the night before was ramming at her brain and she needed to get out. Fast. She found herself daydreaming as the exit came into clear view. Although a tall figure soon slithered in her way.

"Riku..."

"Kairi, we need to talk. Now."
