001 ☆ Voice/Action for New Bark

[paopuprincess]

[The whole world felt like a blur. A moment ago, she was fleeing for her life. Her two best friends had vanished in front of her eyes. Monsters were descending upon her. She was worried that she would be joining them in the darkness soon.

Suddenly, she's in a house. Some woman she's never met is claiming to be her mother. She hands her some weird device she's never seen before, as well as a backpack and a strange-looking ball, before shoving her outside.

It's raining.

She's barely had time to process all of this, but her body instinctively runs under a nearby tree for shelter. Would she be safe here, or is this a trap? This is a world unlike anything she's seen before. Her hand reaches for the device she was just given. Apparently it worked like some kind of radio. She contemplates, for a moment, if she should use it. She might be able to find her friends if she used it, but she might just help the heartless find her. She clicks it on.]

Donald? Goofy?

...

Sora?! Riku?! [They're not here, Kairi. You know that. Sora vanished. Riku was possessed by the darkness. Still, some part of her needed to call out their names.]

Is anybody out there? I need to find my friends!

[ at first all he really hears is his name, okay? ]

What's up? Need me for som -

[ buuuut then it clicks. ]

[heartdive]

[ paying more attention now! those are all names he knows but that voice... ]

K-Kairi?

[ oh gosh you sound so... TINY. ]

[heartdive]

[ awww who cares! ]

Kairi!

[paopuprincess]

Sora?! What are you doing here?!

[heartdive]

I've, uh...

Well I've kinda been here for like almost two years.

[paopuprincess]

How am I supposed to believe that? I just saw you! Saw you...

[Saw you vanish into thin air. You're dead, aren't you?]

[heartdive]

You see... This place is kinda weird like that! It doesn't like to pay attention to worlds or even time.

So maybe you did just see me! I know I saw you not too long ago before showing up here... But I've still been here for a while.

[paopuprincess]

A world that ignores time? Something like that exists?

[No. It has to be a trick.]

[heartdive]

Guess it does! Riku's been here for even longer that I have. You missed his birthday, you know. I had to tease him about being an old man all by myself.

[paopuprincess]

[It's nowhere near Riku's birthday. And even if it was, he certainly wouldn't want to be celebrating like this. She's walked into a trap. This Sora is an impostor. He has to be. The heartless must be tracking her with this device.

She quickly switches off the gear and sets it beneath the tree. They would be coming to look for her. She had to hide.]
