Hiei17: This fiction will be based upon Riku. Through the story you will be presented with his thoughts, which will be presented in this format. The song format if there are any will be in this format. With that I'd like to start the fic.

I've been having this strong hope lately ...

Riku was falling in to a stormy abyss.

That this chaotic nightmare would end...

He opened his aquamarine eyes and stared at the darkness surroundings about him.

And my friends would just listen to me again.

He closed his eyes and began to fall faster and faster.

From the top to the bottom, bottom to top I stop

Riku opened his eyes and saw Sora standing by the ocean.

At the core I've forgotten, in the middle of my thoughts

Riku smiled and started to walk towards his friend.

Taken far from my safety, the picture's there

The memory won't escape me, but why should I care

Sora turned and smiled at Riku.

There's a place so dark you can't see the end

Sky's cock back and shock which can't defend

The rain then sends dripping an acidic question

Forcefully the power of suggestion

Then with the eyes tightly shut looking through the rusty rot and dust a small light floods the floor

And pours over the rusty world of pretend and the eyes ease open and it's dark again.

Riku walked closer and saw his clothes change to a black uniform with and X-ed heart. He shrugged and continued to walk towards a now glaring Sora.

From the top to the bottom, bottom top I stop

In the core I've forgotten, in the middle of my thoughts

Taken far from my safety the picture's there

The memory won't escape me, but why should I care

Sora was holding a giant key in hand and got in fighting stance.

In the memory you'll find me eyes burning up

The darkness holding me tightly

Until the sun rises up

Sora jumped at Riku swinging this key.

Moving all around screaming of the ups and downs

Pollution manifested in perpetual sound the wheels go round

As the sun creeps behind streetlamps chain-link and concrete

Riku found himself whirling around and blocking with his own key although his was black and red.

A little piece of picture drawn floats on down the street until the wind is gone

And the memory is like the picture was then

When the paper's crumpled up it can't be perfect again.

Riku was blocking with swift blows towards Sora's key. Sora was knocked back into the ocean and a huge wave was coming in at a fast pace.

From the top to the bottom, bottom to top I stop

At the core I've forgotten, In the middle of my thoughts

Taken far from my safety, the picture's there

The memory won't escape me but why should I care

Riku and Sora were engulfed in the wave and pulled away from each other by a different current.

In the memory you'll find me eyes burning up

The darkness holding me tightly

Until the sun rises up

Now you got me caught in the act

You bring the thought back

I'm telling you that I see it right through you

Riku swam to the surface gasping for air and saw Kairi in the distance.

Riku walked towards the smiling Maroon haired girl. She smiled at her drenched friend and ran towards him.

Now you got me caught in the act

You bring the thought back

I'm telling you that I see it right through you

Kairi stopped midway towards him and backed off. Riku looked strangely at her and saw his clothes had changed again.
Now you got me caught in the act

You bring the thought back

I'm telling you that I see it right through you

Now you got me caught in the act

You bring the thought back

I'm telling you that I see it right through you

Kairi stared at Riku with a scared expression. Riku walked slowly towards her. A tear ran down Kairi's face.

Now you got me caught in the act

You bring the thought back

I'm telling you that I see it right through you

Riku found himself surrounded in a strange dark aura. He started to fall.

Now you got me caught in the act

You bring the thought back

I'm telling you that I see it right through you

Now you got me caught in the act

You bring the thought back

I'm telling you that I see it right through you

Riku landed and caught a glimpse of a silvered haired figure. He backed away he felt the loneliness his two best friends considered him as a thret.

In the memory you'll find me eyes burning up

The darkness holding me tightly

Until the sun rises up

Riku found himself at the end of this huge platform. Losing his balance he slightly slipped hanging on to the platform with one arm. The figure walked to Riku and grabbed his hand. Riku was shocked to see his own reflection with an evil smirk on his face.

In the memory you'll find me eyes burning up

The darkness holding me tightly

Until the sun rises up

The reflection let go and Riku fell into a dark abyss.

Riku screamed and awoke in his bed. Cold sweat was running from his face and tears from eyes.

His heart beat a thousand miles per minute. He breathed heavily trying to calm down. The cold sweat had traveled through his whole body. His mind raced.

That dream it felt so real. Why were Sora and Kairi afraid of me. Why were Sora and I fighting. Why?

Riku was calm know and walked into his bathroom. He brushed his teeth and stared at his reflection in the mirror he spit out the toothpaste and walked out. He grabbed his clothes from his drawer and dressed. He was now in a yellow tank top, blue baggy pants, and tennis shoes.

He walked out of his house and to a nearby dock. He saw Kairi's boat was already gone. He jumped in his and paddled slowly to the island. His muscles tensed with each roe and burned with sensation.

I don't understand what was the meaning of that dream? Or those words? " I've been hoping lately that this chaotic nightmare would end and my friends would just talk to me again"?

He arrived at a small dock. He attached a rope from the dock to his canoe. He jumped up and walked to the shore. He saw Kairi her beauty made his heart beat faster and faster. She turned and their eyes met.

"Hey there Riku, ready to work on the raft?" She asked.

"Good Morning Kairi." Riku said as he walked towards her.

"Here I figured you'd need some breakfast knowing you, you probably skipped it again." She handed him a bag of blueberries.

"Thanks so what do I need to do?" Riku asked smiling at Kairi.

"Well, after you're done eating you can go find some 3 logs, flint, and some tinder." She said.

Riku nodded and ate his blueberries.

Should I tell her about my dream? No she'd probably think I'm crazy. Maybe I'll mention it to Sora.

Riku finished and got to work. He found the logs with ease on the other side of the island. The tinder was found near where Him, Tidus, Wakka, Sora, Kairi, and Selphie had a fire. He wandered around the rest of the island wondering where he could find some flint. He had checked around all the possible places. He stopped by a small stream and drenched his face with water. He looked at a small crawl space.

Maybe it's in the secret spot.

He crawled through the space and found himself in a small cave. He looked at all the random cave drawings and sat down with a piece of rock and drew a key and a question mark. He stood up and spotted a huge piece of flint and grabbed it. He started to walk away and looked back at the door.

Is that a keyhole?

He shook his silver hair and crawled out of the cave. He was slightly sweating on this hot day. He spotted Kairi and Sora talking. A Jelous smirk appeared on his face. He made his way over there.

"But you know... I wouldn't mind seeing it." Kairi finished.

"Yeah, I want to see them too along with any other worlds out there, I want to see them all." Sora said with intrest and a smile on his face.

"What are we waiting for?" she asked

"Hey aren't you guys forgetting about me?" Riku shrugged and smiled. "I guess I'm the only one working on the raft." Riku tossed the log to Sora and continued towards Kairi.

"Hee Hee" Kairi laughed

"And you're just as lazy as he is." Riku put his hands on his hips and then sat down next to Sora.

"Hee Hee So you've noticed. I'll race you." Kairi said getting ready to run.

"Huh?" Sora asked.

"What are you kidding?" Riku asked he was already tired from getting raft supplies.

"Ready?" Kairi asked raising her hand. "Go!" she shouted

Riku and Sora looked at each other then jumped up ran ahead of Kairi. Riku and Sora were even and crossed the finish line at the same time.
