AN: First KH fanfiction. Hope that I did justice to the characterizations. I am not a gamer nor have I played KH, CoMand KHIIbefore. This comes from the conversations I had with my friend who is an avid KH fan.

Dedication: Kagome Taisho aka Manjuu for getting me into KH fandom, the tireless explanations and the squeeings. You're the best!

It's hard to think of them as a separate entity. They're no longer just Sora or Riku or Kairi. Not even Sora and Riku or Sora and Kairi or Riku and Kairi. Where one goes, the other two are never far behind. They had always been together but now, it seemed that they were even more together, if possible. Even closer, inseparable. It was hard to find one of them alone because the other two were always there.

"Like they're one person," Tidus had murmured once, as they watched the three of them dance on the beach, Keyblades singing in the air.

Tidus was right. They were no longer a single person. No longer Sora, Kairi or Riku. Where one went, the other two followed, like shadows. They were RikuKairiSora. It was hard to split them up, even harder to find one alone. They were constantly together. At school, at play, on the beach. She wouldn't be surprised if they don't separate to go home but stayed together during the night at some place.

Always the three. Always one. Always together.

And Selphie wondered, if she will ever have that closeness with Tidus and Wakka that they have and then, she knew it was wishful thinking.

Because they were different than them. They had saved the world.

They were special.

Owari..
