Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Oh right, silly me," Kairi said slapping her forehead again, "I totally forgot." The crimsonette was totally out of it, and was beginning to feel very embarrassed.

Kairi was grateful that the brunette took her hand, lead her to her room, and sat her down on her bed. The red head set her glass of water down on her bedside table then looked up at Sora. Kairi smiled at Sora when he called her by her old nickname, Kai. She missed the old days. When the keyblade master suggested they take a look at the letter, the princess froze up. Even so, Kairi was able to reply in a quiet voice, "O-Okay..."

“And I thought the Darkness was bad…xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxIt doesn’t even compare to this Hell.”

"She's just a girl-" Riku was interupted by Sora's phone. It was Kairi. The silvernette tried to lean towards the phone to hear both sides of the conversation but the Keyblade Master pushed him back and they both tried to fight the other a bit. Riku just wanted to here! Finally he gave up and stood back and waited. Finally Sora hung up. The silvernette's face dropped when Sora told him about Kairi. Her real parents. Sora promised him more details and Riku agreed before the Kehblade master ran off.

Riku silently snuck back into the classroom and took his seat. He sat down and looked over at Hikari. She had a blank piece of papaer on her desk. That was odd. He leaned over towards her though and spoke. "I don't know why I didn't tell him about you. This whole problem could've been taken care of then," Riku hissed almost before pulling away. Why hadn't he told Sora?

Lakayna rolled her eyes at Axel and smiled, grabbing the supplies he put out for her. With her free hand, she wrapped her fingers around his wrist. Her skin was touching his skin, byut Lakayna didn't ralize it because her vision hadn't clouded over at all and she was looking at his face.
"Come on," she said, and lead him back to the room.
It didn't take long to get there and thankfully Lakayna had actually only been gone about five minutes, surprisingly.
"Sorry for taking so long," she apoloigized, setting the mop, cleaner and bucket down by the desk, "Found someone who wasn't in class. He told me he was lost, so I led him back here."
The teacher nodded, taking the supplies and proceding to clean up the mess without a word. The students however, behaved differently. Waves of murmurs began to stir across the room as Lakayna led Axel to the free seat in the back beside hers. She sat down, a small smirk on her face as her gold eyes met his once more.

The girl was listening to the conversation between Sora and Kairi as Riku re-entered the classroom and sat down next to her. Hearing Riku complain that he should've told him about her, she gave him a side glance through her black sunglasses. "How so?" she whispered, not making any effort to lean towards him like he had with her.

Hikari held back a small laugh herself, as if sharing the humor in his little joke. "I'd like to see him try," she challenged. Hikari had way too many tricks up her sleeve to let someone like Sora defeat her, even if he did manage to defeat nearly all of the Organization, including Xemnas himself.

A look of amusement crossed her features. "I know a lot more than what I let on. I'm not as stupid as you would like to think," she said sagely, opening up her book and turning a page nonchalantly.

Kairi took a deep breathe as Sora slowly got up and took the letter from her desk and handed it to her, which she took with trembling hands. Their eyes met and Sora smiled softly. He then gave the crimsonette a very small nod of encouragement. Kairi nodded back and the brunette sat down next to her on the bed, waiting for her to open the letter.

Kairi stared down at the letter, mustering the courage to open it. Having Sora there really helped. Kairi was about to go for it when a very concerned sounding Naminé entered her mind. The red head closed her eyes and thought back to the petite blonde, "It's okay Naminé, I'm not hurt. During lunch one of the assistant principals told me that my foster parents had called the school to say that I needed to come home. I was really scared that something had happened to them, but they are both fine. However..." Kairi broke her thought, opened her eyes, and looked down at the letter in her quivering hands. She then continued her thought to Naminé finding it much easier to think then to talk out loud though it was still difficult, "I-I got a letter from my biological parents... I'm afraid of what it might say. Sora is here with me to help me get through this. I was just about to open it. I'll let you know what it says."

Kairi was returning her focus to the letter when Sora spoke. He told her that he knew everything would be all right and that no matter what they'll still be friends and he'll always be there for her. The princess turned to the keybearer and smiled then hugged him. Fresh tears streamed down Kairi's face as she said, "You're right Sora. I over reacted I guess. Thank you so much for always knowing how to cheer me up, and for always being here for me." She let go of the brunette and said "Okay, lets get this over with already." The red head ripped open the envelope, her hands still shaking but not as badly now, and pulled out the letter. She unfolded it, and held it up so that both she and Sora could read it.
