In a cataclysm known as the Nightfall, the worlds were almost completely destroyed by a harrowing surge of darkness.
In the shadows of the ensuing chaos a new group has taken shape. Led by an Aegyl named Kalos, the 11th Hour touts an esoteric knowledge of how to combat the darkness and restore the worlds. They might be the worlds’ best chance at survival; but nobody really knows enough about them to confirm or deny their claims.
On the brink of collapse, the universe holds its breath in anticipation. Of restoration? Of destruction? It is up to individuals like yourself to decide.

Kairi wasn't thinking home sweet home, since she has been disconnected from her home world for years. That snippet of her childhood is a blur, but she remembers a few glimpse of her grandmother and all the stories she told in what looked like a library. Other than that she doesn't feel a strong polarity to this world for what she have forgotten, but what she does remember such as: waking up from a camatouse state, Sora sacrificing his heart for the sake of others and turning into a heartless, and having to leave Riku behind with Ansem.
In short, a lot of blood, sweat, tears had accumulated in the shadowed replica of this world, Hallow Bastion. Regardless of the dark history, she couldn't help but to small at its transformation and transition; by seeing its restoration, the Princess can see that everything is going to be alright despite the odds. Well that's what she hoped to believe.
To ensure that everything would be fine, she came to Radiant Garden; it seemed like the only safe world she could harbor in, especially if the Organization was up and roaming. This world supposively had good defenses that repeled both Heartless and Nobodies alike. Perhaps now she won't be so timid in using or practicing with her keyblade. Unfortunately for actual heartless and nobody practice, she would have to venture into the outskirt of town.
I'm getting ahead of myself, Kairi chatised herself as she roamed unfamiliar streets of the marketplace. "I wonder where Leon and everyone is at..."
Daily patrols...in all honesty, it bored Yuffie. She didn't see the reason of watching for Heartless and Nobodies inside the city limits. So instead she entertained herself by naming the people she saw walk by. Yes, being part of the RGURC, she knew most everybody who was native to the city. And she knew it was a primitive form of entertainment, but what was she supposed to do, greet evrybody. It was this particular "Task" that she was at when she spotted the girl.
I know her, she's...wait, who is that?
Her curiosity was perked, and she decided to investigate. As she got closer to the girl, she sensed a power around the girl that seemed familiar. It had been a while since she had sensed it, but it was unmistakable. Only one other she knew had that power. Sora.
It then occured to her that Merlin had mentioned another Keyblade wielder to her, but wasn't specific. She decided that she would observe the girl for a while longer, then confront her.
((Gah, do Kairi and Yuffie know each other? I forget.))

(They would since she was with them at Hallow Bastion and Traverse Town near the tail end of KH 1.)
As she roamed, the teen was already getting turned around, since everything was too distinctively different. There wasn't THIS MANY PEOPLE...happy people. The Markey Place seemed to be the hustle and bustle as merchants shouted to alure others attention. Being the little explorer, Kairi didn't mind indulging them with her interest as she got aquainted with the NEW Hallow Bastion.
Being called over to a miniature icecream parlor, the black haired princess walked over as her bland taste bud began to tingle. No matter the worlds diffence, icecream still had that cold freezer smell. Her eyes scanned the menu, and she blinked innocently at her indecisiveness since everything was nothing like the Islands. There was pineapple, strawberry, and anything you would find in a smoothie, but here...there was different tongues that made these flavors up.
"Um what do you suggest," Kairi asked open-mindedly as the vast options left her uncertain. Luckily they were all around the similar price; she didn't have to go rebute someone advising the most expensive items. Digging in her small purse, she handed over some munny and in return got a bright blue popsicle. It was called Sea Salt Icecream, and since it brought back nostalgia of the islands, she took it with no questions asked.
Sticking a corner in her mouth, she lightly sucked on it, while walking away. Her doe eyes blinked at the perculiar taste. If this was suppossed to taste like the ocean, then they were way off. Being an islander she got used to the salinity and tend to drank a lot of water to balance it, but this quirk of sweetness to the saltiness was enjoy say the least.
Absent mindedly she gazed at the mini trinkets and jewlery being captivated enough to be distracted in her Leon search.
As she continued watching, the girl bought an ice cream and turned around. Yuffie darted back into the alleyway, but glanced back around it and saw that she hadn't been noticed. Looking at the girl, a wave of realization hit her.
She knew the girl. It was Kairi.
With a kind of shock, she froze, then came up with an idea. Turning the corner, she went around the corner and walked up to the ice cream stand, buying an ice cream. She then power-walked after Kairi with her ice cream in her mouth. As she got to the side of the girl, she whispered,

Sucking on the popsicle Kairi began to hum to herself. Out of nowhere she felt a twinged of being watched as someone got too close to her personal space; the youth tried to brush it off seeing that in such public setting everyone would be everywhere. She was calm until she heard the voice.
Blue eyes widdened, and unconsciously she bit into the icecream chilling her teeth and gums. Her eyes squinted at the discomfort as the chill from her gums went straight to her head, "Oooooh."
Pulling the Sea Salt icecream away, she bounced on her toes in surprise at the brain freeze sucking on her teeth to warm her gums back up to stop the madness. As it started to numb away an eye peaked to the intruder seeing a familiar face. Seeing that the person knew exactly who she was without hesitation in remark, she didn't try to play it off idiotically knowing it would get know where since she knew that face, "You...You're...Yuffie."
Despite the two years gap, she still looked the same and still perky as usual. Then it dawned on her, if Yuffie a person she only spent a few hours with or so can identify her, then merely changing her hair color and cutting it wouldn't full people that been around her for years. At the realization she groaned outloud.
With a chuckle, Yuffie took a bite out of her ice cream.
"Don't worry, I'm really good with faces. It about fooled me." She grinned openly then said, "I'm assuming that you don't wanna be recognized, so maybe I can take you back to HQ? Or do you wanna visit for a bit, sightsee?" With a gesture of her hand, she flourished towards the main part of the city. "I can be your tour guide, Kairi."

"Almost fooled you," Kairi repeated. Well atleast it threw her off a bit, but even so it only lurred her like a fish to a hook at the nagging feeling of thinking you know someone. "Almost soo isn't good. How did you find out anyways? It's been a while, and the last time I saw you, I was a much shorter."
"Headquarters," Kairi replied and shoved the icecream in Yuffie's hand for the ninja to take it. She can go sight-seeing once everything was settled and once she somewhat had a better efficient cover, "If you can spot me, then I'm not doing well. So this is what the world used to look like...or close to it?"
((FYI, Yuffie took a bite of Yuffie's ice cream xDDD))

With a giggle, Yuffie smiled at Kairi. "Honestly, I was able to sense something about you that had to do with Sora too, like an aura. Plus, you really think you can hide from a ninja?" With another laugh, she said, "Me, Cloud and Merlin are the only RGURC members present as of now. I haven't heard from Leon or Aerith lately, and I'm kinda worried. We're already shorthanded, and their absence isn't that convienent."
((Another blah post. >.<))

Brows furrowed as she mentioned a Cloud; she never met him before, and she doubted her ever heard of him. Still she went along with it nodding at the ninja. She blinked and looked at Yuffie," Well I was close in hiding from a ninja, but if I can't even hide from you just to say it's been quite some time, then how can I evade..."
Her voice ran soft not completing the sentence. She rather not get Yuffie in her own fiasco of hiding and avoiding Sora and Riku. Naturally Kairi would have to inform her about it just to say she doesn't want to be tailed by her friends who literally traveled worlds for her. They had their shot of an adventure; not it was her turn to travel the worlds and grow stronger for them and herself.
"Leon's not around," well that just shot down her plan. Who was she going to confide in being her teacher.
Yuffie noticed Kairi's change in mood at hearing Leon was gone and frowned. "We're you hoping to find Leon, Kairi?" she asked, finishing her ice cream bar and pocketing the stick.
I'll check it later. she thought, getting back on subject.
"Were you hoping to find Leon for some reason? I may be able to help you out."

"Yeah, you can say that's the reason why I'm here, and that I remember Sora saying how much different and safer this place is...just to say what could be going on out there," she looked up at the sky. "Really? Also I guess while I'm here I can help out with the RGU..RUG...stuff."
"The only problem is as you already pointed out...I really don't want to be spotted. I even thought up of a different name, but it seems it will take more than just a hair change and new clothes for a better cover," then a random question popped into her head, and she looked up at Yuffie wondering if she would have an answer, "What would a ninja do?"
With a grin, Yuffie said, "Well, if you wanna avoid others, you can always take my way!" She jumped up, reaching a rooftop that was a good ten feet up before flipping off the edge, landing on her feet. "But that's thanks to years of practice. My advice to you, Kairi, is to avoid those you are avoiding, not everybody." With a small nod, she said, "Back when I used to live in my home world, I was a pretty good thief, so I knew how to avoid detection. But here it's...well, impossible. Cid has set up scanning devices around the perimeter and inside as well. Sneaking doesn't work at all in here, and if we get warning of a threat, we eliminate it."
"And yes, Kairi, your help would be appreciated." She giggled and whispered to Kairi, "Or would you rather I use your other name...if I knew it."

(D: gaaah me thought me had posted here)
"Shio," Kairi replied as she nipped on her icecream again. "So it sounds like this place is doing very well with the defenses and stuff. I wish it was like this everywhere else you know."
"As for sneaking around, I guess that still going to be a little speed bump. I don't want to be a little thief or anything...I just don't want to be noticed. If you can find me ...with the aura and all, then so would others...even the hurtful people."
She didn't know if Yuffie was already aware of the Organization's revival. It was still an overall shock for her.
Yuffie thought for a second, then said, "Well, I guess the Heartless are a threat, but you're safe here." She stopped in front of a doorway, knocked and then entered, looking around at their Headquarters. She went over to Cid's desk and picked up a card, holding it out to Kairi. "Welcome to the RGURC." She then laughed and said, "Y'know, the last person I remember us giving one of these to was Sora. Guess it must be destiny."
Then she went to the computer, putting in Kairi's name on the database. However, she typed slowly and misspelled a couple things, and her cheeks burned with embarrasment. "Stupid machine." she mumbled.
