Roxiri. (It was originally going to be Namine. But, as you guys have noticed. Kairi pawns Namine in my book. Whilst Xion can die.) This is mainly just to set the, well, standard for future...tellings. This story will mainly focus on, well. I got the idea from a mixture of star gazing, Airplanes, and the like. Flying. Branching out if you will. Different, meg different style from the last chaptered thing I did. I have the next (first) chapter ready, which, will follow shortly.

Prologue: When You're Older, You Will Understand.

"Watch me!" The small five year old was standing on the top of a shack, flapping his arms, having scrambled to the top to prove his point to his friend.

"But Roxas! Your mom says people can't fly!" She was nervous. What if he got hurt, maybe she should get someone?

"Don't be sucha baby Kairi!" He spat back at her. He knew he shouldn't have brought her with him. He then turned away from her and looked off at the ocean. This was his chance. To prove to her and to everyone else he could fly. And so he jumped.

Needless to say, when the boy jumped off the roof, he broke his leg. And this ended with both of the two young children crying until attention was brought to them by a passerby. Roxas's leg was attended to, and a week later, the two sat on the docks, looking at the ocean.

Kairi poked his cast. "Does it hurts still?"

Roxas poked out his chest and rolled his eyes. "No dummy, they gave me candy for it…Except you can't taste it. You have to swallow it." He scrunched his nose. "Momma puts it in my food. And one time, it got stuck here!" He pointed to his throat. He wasn't going to admit to Kairi it had scared him though.

Kairi's mouth dropped. She was appalled at not being able to chew and savor candy of any kind, but to have it mixed with food and then having it get stuck just sounded awful. "Then why not give you candies you can eat and put in your tummy?" She rubbed her stomach.

He shrugged and looked down at his cast. "When it gets off, I'm trying again."

Kairi furrowed her brows. "But then," She put a finger to her chin, thoughtfully, she continued, "it'll come back."

This logic made sense to him and he nodded. They were silent for a few minutes; Roxas was staring at clouds, while Kairi was watching the waves.

"Don't you wanna fly Kairi?" He asked, falling back so he could lie on his back and look up. "And touch those," He pointed towards the seemingly fluffy clouds above them.

Kairi looked up, and then followed his lead, laying back. "Nuh uh." She pointed to a cloud that was above them. "It looks like a puppy."

Roxas followed her finger, and indeed there was a slightly puppy shaped cloud above them. "But, maybe then we could make clouds." He then turned to look at her. "Why don't you want ta fly?"

She looked at him and smiled, showing the gap in her teeth, "S'too high!" Roxas stared at her. Wasn't that the point of wanting to fly? "Like, what if you're up there, and then you fall. You'll get hurt." She pointed to his leg, "Worser than that." She had seen this on TV when her daddy had fallen asleep. Kairi didn't watch much TV with daddy after that.

He huffed. "You're dumb. When you're older, you'll know." Roxas adored the fact he was older than her by a year. And he brought it to her attention quite often. "If you're flying, you won't fall." He didn't know why he tried to explain anything to Kairi.

Kairi looked away, and looked back up at the clouds. "What if you can't fly anymore?"

Roxas stared at her. What if he couldn't? But, he couldn't now. So maybe if he learned, he wouldn't forget, and would always be able to. But instead of agreeing with her, he shrugged, mumbling an "I'll always know." under his breath.

"Roxas?"

"What?" He hoped she wasn't going to make him look stupid again.

"When you learn how to fly, I wanna learn too, okay?"

The two turned to each other. Roxas nodded, and she smiled. "I'll teach you."

"Promise?" She held out her pinky finger.

Roxas nodded, and wrapped his small finger around hers. "Promise."

I think, I really need to work on my, er. Well. Childhood scenes. These kids suck. So that's mainly why I didn't just scrap this in the first place. Critique is much appreciated on these, well, endeavors. Review if you will. And if you don't, remember, I love you too.
