Angel sighed and she too slowly stood, brushing herself off. "Calm yourself Aynn, he's mostly bark. If he was a threat, he would've attacked us already. He's just feeling overprotective. Wouldn't you if you were in his shoes?" She spoke calmly, lightly placing a hand on her friend's shoulder. Honestly, Riku reminded her of her lost brother in more ways than one. Sora tilted his head at her words. "Well.. I could take you to the Mayors house in the mainland, he runs the town." He offered casually. "Our boats our on the other side of the island, where I first met Amrynn. Their pretty small though.. so you won't both fit on one boat." He tried to explain.

Angel blinked. "Boats? You have to travel across the water to get back to the mainland?" She asked, curious. Sora grinned. "Well of course! we can't exactly swim from the beach to the island, it's too far." He explained. Angel nodded and gently took her friend's hand. "We've got no choice then." She said, before the boys turned and led them back to the other side of the island through the shack door.

Angel lightly placed her hands on Amrynn's shoulders as they followed the boys.

After going through the shack and reaching the docks, feeling a bit nervous with the lingering silence surrounding them, Angel spoke. "I'll ride with Riku, Amrynn can ride with Sora.." She murmured quietly. Sora grinned. "That's alright with me, how about you?" He asked, glancing at his silver haired friend, who simply shrugged.

Sora carefully got into his little row boat and held a hand out to Amrynn, in case she needed helped. "The sooner we get you two to the mayor's house, the faster he can help you."

The young brunette let go of her hand once they were inside the boat and he sat down to roe, not waiting for Riku since they'd be going to the same place. He seemed to be more in a hurry than the silver haired boy, but he didn't rush the trip back to the shore. Sora glanced at her and pondered for a moment before smiling. "Not long, like ten minutes? Maybe fifteen.." He answered casually.

Riku on the hand had gotten into his boat and turned to look at the princess, who wasn't looking so sure of herself now. "What's the matter, afraid of a little water?" He asked, not attempting to tease her. Angel pressed her lips together briefly before stepping back, and Riku soon understood that he had hit the mark. "My home might as well be a desert wasteland." She murmured. Riku slowly extended his hand to her and offered her a surprising comforting expression. "You'll be alright. I won't let you go over, promise." He said. Angel hesitantly took his extended hand and he helped her into the boat, and waited for her to sit before he began to roe at a steady pace.

Sora's blissful expression softened as she spoke and he also glanced out across the ocean. "No way.. I don't know what I'd do if that ever happened to my world.." He spoke, looking back at her and smiling once more. "We'll definitely get you and Angel back home, and then maybe we could do something to help you get your kingdom back." He said almost as if promising to do so. If he could do anything to help, then he would.

Eventually the boat came on to the shore of the beach and Sora set the row down before hopping out and pushing the boat up onto the beach. He then held a hand out to Amrynn to help her out of the boat. "Riku and Angel should be right behind us."

---

The ride was much quieter for Riku and Angel since they didn't do much talking. Soon, their boat came across the shore and Riku got out to push it up onto the beach like Sora had done previously. Angel got out of the boat by herself and the two of them joined Sora and Amrynn. "See? That wasn't so bad." Riku said with a chuckle and Angel flushed some.

Sora smiled and nodded, glancing at his friend when they pulled up onto the shore. "We should take them to the mayor's house, he'll know what to do." Riku folded his arms loosely, causing Sora to frown. "Well, at least they'll have a place to sleep." He said with a pout.

Angel walked over to Amrynn and gently held her hand as the boys had their little moment. Sora gestured to the girls to follow them, then began to walk down the beach which led to a path and a sidewalk. Riku waited for the girls before following Sora, and Angel gave Amrynn's hand a tug as she followed Sora.

Moved!
