Author's note: O-kay! My first attempt at Kingdom Hearts. Hope it's enjoyable. Sorry, if this resembles anything anyone else has written, I haven't read very many KH fanfics, but I wanted to try my own…

Disclaimer: I (sadly) do not own any of Kingdom Hearts.

Scattered Pages

I ran my fingers over the last page in my sketchbook. Sora smiled up at me from the page, standing next to me and holding my hand, holding a toy sword. So many of the pictures were like that now. The pictures that, one by one, had replaced Sora's memories.
