"Ansem… wait up." Sora called after the retreating cloaked figure. The tall, muscular Ansem stopped in mid-step and turned to regard the shaggy-haired boy with an icy stare.

"Thank you…" Sora said softly, "for saving Kairi."

The man tilted his head in a slight incline before resuming his retreat towards the swirling black portal from which he had first appeared.

"Riku!"

Ansem stopped short and spun around with eyes wide with surprise. Kairi ran past Sora and grabbed his wrist, tugging at him softly. She looked up at him with sparkling, teary eyes. "Riku, tell him. Tell him who you are…"

Ansem looked over the young girl's head at Sora, who was now standing mutely a few feet away with his jaw agape. Sora's eyes began to fill with tears.

"Riku… is that you?" He said softly, approaching the figure he had previously thought to be Ansem with short, hesitant steps. "… is it true?"

Ansem looked down at his feet and avoided eye contact with both Kairi and Sora. "Yes… I am Riku."

A long silence passed between them. Kairi grasped Riku's wrist and pulled him closer to Sora. "Sora… close your eyes, and see for yourself." She grabbed Sora's arm and forced his hand into Ansem's.

Sora closed his eyes and grasped the black-gloved hand tightly. Everything was black, but soon an image began to illuminate against the insides of his eyes. Long, silvery hair, a well-defined, pointed chin… it was Riku.

And he was naked.

Sora's eyes shot open. He snatched his arm away from Riku's and stumbled backward a step, a deep blush surfacing on his cheeks.

"Did you see?" Kairi asked, expectantly.

The image surfaced once again in Sora's mind and as it did so his nose erupted with a gush of bright red blood. ( ___o)

"Y-yeah… I saw."
