Meeting and Leaving

Disclaimer: Character and worlds don't belong to me. They belong to Square and blah, blah, blah.

"Kairi! Kairi! Wake up!" said a voice. Kairi woke up w/ a start and saw that Sora was shaking her. She sat up and saw that they were in the alley of an old town. "W-Where are we?" asked Kairi as she stood up. "I don't know. This building to the right of us is a market. That's all I know," said Sora trying to wake up Akiko.
"I didn't want to leave you two alone, unconscious, and in a dark alley," said Sora gesturing to their surroundings. Kairi smiled. Akiko awoke and stood up.
"Where are we?" she asked tiredly. "For the 100th time I don't know. Now let's go take a look around," said Sora as the three of them walked out of the dark alley and into the bright marketplace.
Sora, Akiko, and Kairi walked out of the alley and into a busy, bustling marketplace. Kairi stopped a young woman and asked, "What town is this?"
"This is Hollow Bastion. Are you not from around here?" asked the young woman curious. The woman had long brown hair and it was braided down her back. It was held back by a pink ribbon. Also she had a curly strand of brown hair hanging down on each side of her face. "Yeah. We got here, but we don't have a place to stay," said Kairi looking sad.
Oh man! When Kairi uses her 'please take us in' tactics they usually work and she always gets the results that she wants, thought Sora keeping quiet. "Why don't y'all stay w/ me and my friends? It seems you three have Keyblades too," said the woman pointing to their pendants.
Kairi, Sora, and Akiko examined the pendants around their necks that were blue and glowing. "Mine's the same. My friends and my pendant appeared a couple of minutes ago and helped us fight off some Heartless. By the way my names Aerith," she said shaking their hands.
"What's a Keyblade?" asked Akiko puzzled. "Hold out one hand as if you're reaching for something and then close it," said Aerith as she did it and an unusual sword appeared. Sora, Kairi, and Akiko did the same thing and they each got a different sword/Keyblade.
Sora's Keyblade had a bloomed Rose at the tip and was black along the blade and handle. Kairi's Keyblade was silver, yellow, gold, and really shiny. It had something like a star at the tip and it was blue and yellow. The handle and blade were silver. Akiko's Keyblade had a budding rose at the tip and was gold along the blade and handle.
After Sora, Kairi, and Akiko were done examining their Keyblades Aerith asked, "What are your names?" and then her Keyblade disappeared. Kairi, Sora, and Akiko's Keyblades disappeared too. "I'm Kairi. This is Sora and Akiko," said Kairi introducing everyone.
"Hello everyone. Well let's head over to my house so you can meet my friends," said Aerith as she led them to her house.

Before the man's and my Keyblades hit someone pushed us apart. I was shocked when I saw Riku between the man and me! "R-Riku! Are you alright?" I asked forgetting about the man.
"I'm fine. It's you I'm worried about. You aren't strong enough to fight yet, especially not an experienced fighter," said Riku as his Keyblade appeared.
"Fight me instead of Mika," said Riku standing in front of me.
"I cannot. You have already proven yourself, but Mika has not," said the man as he ran at me raising his sword. I easily dodged his attack and hit him from behind. The man hit the floor w/ such force it almost cracked one of the wooden planks.
"I'm not a weakling. I can protect myself and I just proved myself worthy of this Keyblade right?" I said mockingly.
"Y-Yes. You are worthy. Use your speed and agility to help aid you in battle. Just some friendly advice," said the man as he disappeared.
"Looks like you already know how to use your Keyblade," said Riku from behind me.
"Actually I don't. I just dodged and was gonna hit him. I didn't know my pendant would help," I said.
"What do you mean?" asked Naoko confused.
"When that man started at me I didn't know what to do. The pendant glowed for a second and kind of told me what to do. It also gave the swing of my Keyblade a power boost. If the pendant hadn't of helped me I'd be the one on the floor," I said sitting down on the bed.
"Thank you for your hospitality Naoko, but I think we should go," said Riku as he took his clothes to the bathroom to get dressed.
"No! You should stay really," said Naoko as I got dressed.
"We don't want to stay longer than we have to. We want to find our friends as soon as possible," I said as Riku came out of the bathroom.
"I wish I could go w/ you, but I think I'll stay here and protect the village. Maybe I'll meet up w/ you later somehow. At least let me walk you a little ways out of the village," said Naoko hopefully. Riku and I nodded.
"Just how old are you two?" asked Naoko curiously.
"We're both 16," said Riku.
"How old are you?" I asked curiously.
"Oh. I'm 17," said Naoko.
"Whaaaat?! You look a whole lot younger than 17," I said shocked as Riku and I packed everything and left the dojo with Naoko leading us.
