Chapter 6: The First Encounter

I stood up to stand before the hooded figure. I was a bit dizzy and my footing wasn't stable. I summoned my keyblade and asked the figure a question.

"Who are you?"

"Me?" They answered, "I can't tell you yet. Only that I'm doing this for you..."

The last part had me stop to think. As I looked at the figure I could see someone behind him on the ground. It was Roxas.

"What did you do to him?" I yelled, charging towards the figure with my keyblade.

The figure dodged it quickly and said something behind my back.

"We can't fight now. It's not time. We will meet again, Kairi." They said, then they said something as if they were a little bit annoyed, "I just needed to give Roxas something... But it looks like you broke it."

"Broke it?! What are you talking about?"

I yelled, turning around to face them. I shielded Roxas as he lay unconscious behind me.

"That I can't tell you, but maybe he can."

They said as they pointed to Roxas. I looked at Roxas. He was in a sitting position against the wall.

"What?"

I turned back to face the figure, but they were gone. What did he tell Roxas? I looked back to Roxas and went closer to him. I crouched beside Roxas and shook him a little.

"Roxas?"

I asked, shaking him more.

He groaned a little and his eyes opened showing his blue eyes. He gasped and got up quickly taking out his keyblades. I backed away surprised by his reaction.

"Roxas! It's okay! You're safe!"

After a moment of staring at me he put his keyblades away. Looking at me in disbelief.

"Kairi you came... So he did get his way."

He said standing still. I was going to walk towards him, but then he suddenly collapsed from exhaustion.

"Roxas!"

I ran trying to catch him, but he fell too quickly and he landed with a heavy thud! I was confused. Why did he fall? What had happened to him? I tried to pick him up and take him to his bed when I heard banging on a door.

"Kairi! Roxas!"

It was Axel. Yelling desperately.

"Axel!"

I ran to the door and it still had the barrier. I touched the door knob and the barrier dissolved.

"Guys!"

The door slammed open by Axel. I backed away, Axel and Master Aqua burst through the door keyblades in hand. I held out my hands.

"Stop! It's okay! Roxas is safe!"

I pointed to Roxas still on the floor.

"Roxas..."

Axel said as he walked up to him picking him up. He placed him on his bed.

"What happened?"

Master Aqua asked, walking up to me.

"I really don't understand what happened."

I looked back at Roxas.

"There was a hooded figure that said Roxas would know something. He told me it's not time for me to know."

Axel came back to Master Aqua and I.

"Start from the beginning Kairi. We saw a person graped you and the door slammed shut. Then the barrier came back. I thought..."

Axel looked at me then at Roxas with tears in his eyes.

Master Aqua spoke up.

"We thought we lost you both Kairi, but you kept your light strong. I'm proud of you."

I smiled.

"Thank you."

"Now please tell us what happened."

Master Aqua said.

"Okay."

I took a deep breath and started talking about the voices I had heard beforehand.
