OK so here's what's up. This is my VERY FIRST fan fiction and I am sooo excited! I've read lots of stories on this site and I decided what the hell, might as well put my own out there.
So if you didn't get it from the summary this is my version of the ending of Kingdom Hearts 2. It starts right after the corridor Namine opens disappears leaving Sora and Riku stranded in TWTNW.
These first couple chapters may seem really really similar to the real KH2 story line but I assure you that the ending is very very different.
I own nothing except my original plot. So with out further ado (what's ado anyways?) I will begin my first fan fiction.
Cross your fingers! Wish me luck! And here we go...
"What are we going to do?!" Sora asked his voice rising half an octave in fear. "You have to open one of those corridors. We can't be trapped here!" He grabbed Riku's arm shaking him.
His best friend sighed running his fingers through his long silver hair. He wished his bangs would stay out of his eyes so he could think without their distraction, but they just flopped back in their original place. He needed a haircut. But there were more pressing matters at hand. Riku looked down at Sora whose face portrayed the worry in his voice. As always Riku felt the need to comfort his friend and protect him, but he couldn't, not today. Sora already knew the hard truth but Riku said it anyways, "I'm sorry; I can't. The darkness isn't mine to control anymore."
"This can't be happening," Sora said. "We won. We beat him." He ran back to the spot his friends had disappeared. Kairi's voice calling to him as their escape route dissipated echoed in his mind. He had finally found her again and like last time they had been seperated. "I call foul. This isn't fair." He was angry; all his elation after saving the worlds from Xemnas and freeing Kingdom Hearts was gone and he stormed around the roof of the castle muttering curses at their misfortune.
Riku ran after him and grabbed the hood of his jacket jerking him to a stop. "Cut it out man. This isn't helping," he said and turned Sora around so that they are facing one another. "Pull it together. We have to think about what we are going to do now."
Sora nodded and took several deep breaths embarressed by his outburst. Riku was being strong and level headed while he was running in circles. Not for the first time Sora wished he could be more like his best friend. "OK I'm sorry," he said sheepishly. Riku regarded him for a moment making sure he's genuine then released him letting Sora take a step back. Sora put his hands behind his head and leaned back trying to look more comfortable with the situation. He and Riku were alone on top of Xemnas' castle in The World That Never Was. Their friends Donald, Goofy, King Mickey, and of course Kairi had made it through the corridor of darkness before it had closed. He wondered where it had taken them. Almost anywhere would be better than this empty nobody world about to be overrun by heartless.
Their position was grim. They were trapped with no gummi ship and an endless stream of heartless, fueled by the hearts still falling from the ruins of Kingdom Hearts, was slowly making its way up the sides of the castle.
Sora could feel his anger coming back at his feelings of helplessness but he forced himself to look on the bright side. The one bright side he could see. "I'm glad you're here Riku. I glad I'm not alone," he said quietly. Sora had searched and searched for his lost friend, a quest that had brought him here to this castle where he had found Riku and for the first time in a long time they had fought on the same side, the side of light.
"Can't say I'm glad to be here, but its nice to be appreciated," Riku replied giving Sora a slight smile. Sora grinned back. Riku wasn't freaking out; he was very calm and that gave Sora back a little of his lost hope.
SCREECH
They both turned to see a huge dragon flying across the sky. "What the hell is-" Riku began but before he could finish his thought the dragon, which appeared to be made of metal, crashed into the castle and the floor underneath them shuttered. They were both thrown to their hands and knees as the floor dipped to one side. The white tiles cracked and pieces slid across the floor breaking the sides of the roof and falling away.
"Riku!" Riku heard Sora shout his name and he looked over at his friend, or rather where his friend had been moments before. Sora was sliding down the now tilted surface scrambling with his hands trying to find something to hold onto as he accelerated towards the broken edge of the roof and the long fall to the ground far below.
"Sora!" Riku cried panicked. He began sliding as well, but not quite as fast as Sora. Sora reached the edge and was finally able to find a handhold on one of the broken edges of the tiles, but his legs were hanging off the edge, dangling in empty space.
"Hold on Sora!" Riku shouted. He angled himself as he slid at a section of the roof where the sides were still intact.
"What the hell do you think I'm trying to do?" Sora replied as Riku hit the side which thankfully held. He inched towards Sora, right up to the edge of the wall not daring to look down and see how far up they really were. As close as he can get, Riku reached out with one hand to Sora while holding onto the wall tightly with his other arm.
Sora's fingers felt like they are close to breaking. He was holding onto the smallest ledge left by a broken tile. Riku's hand was outstretched towards him and he carefully loosened his grip with one hand to reach out for his friend. But as he reached towards him the floor tilted even more. Another white tile fell away and on its way off the roof it clipped Sora on his right temple. It knocked him off the small ledge and he fell off the tower with a scream.
Riku lunged for Sora's hand as he fell and caught it, but Sora's sudden weight pulling him down caused him to fall off as well. They were left dangling, Riku just barely holding on to the side. Sora grabbed onto him with his other hand. "Riku! Can you pull us up?" Sora shouted up at him.
Riku tried but its no use. His arm holding on to the wall was starting to slip and Sora's weight had nearly pulled his other arm out of its socket.
"Riku!" Sora shouted up to him again, "Do you trust me?"
What kind of a question was that? But Riku didn't have time to wonder his arm slipped a little again and he yelled, "Yes!"
"Then let go in 3, 2," Sora paused then screamed, "1!"
Not sure if he would have been able to hold on any longer anyways, Riku let go and they fell away from the castle, or what was left of it. All the towers, like the one they had been on, were cracked and falling into the abyss beneath them. The same abyss that he and Sora now plummeted towards as well.
Please please please review! Like I said this is my first fan fiction and actually the first time I have ever shown anyone a story I've written. Let me know how it turned out. I think it was great but I might be a little biased. :)
