Alright-y I said I would upload this. Me and Hikari started this a long time ago...like 3 years, almost 4. So I couldn't leave this hanging and decided to finish it. We had done up to Chapter 18 but had stopped due to issues with family and stuff. So it was before I had played Kingdom Hearts continuously and before it became my absolutely favorite thing above what had previously been Yugioh. So if things seem weird its because (1) it's fanfiction and (2) it's made to work for our story. If ya have any questions at all throughout this story please ask me...I'll explain it. Plus I love critiques so don't be too blunt just tell me. But I should be posting the next chapter in a couple days :3 Please keep in mind that I didn't want to rewrite and change her style to fit mine. Or change mine that had been at the time. I simply...beta-ed it and moved on from there. I wanted to keep it as original as I could. This is also on our shared account...I think it's called Nivian now or something close (forgive me Hikari for misspelling it!)

TWISTED LOVE
Prologue
It was right before nightfall. It was twilight…and it truly was memorable. The three friends; Riku, Kairi, and Sora sat out on the shore. After defeating Xehanort's heartless and nobody, they were finally at peace. That is; plus the small episode in Castle Oblivion. Which is where Sora got rid of Larxene and Marluxia. While Riku attended to Lexeaus. That is after the double agent, Axel, killed off Vexen and Zexion. All of this should have made the three closer. Yet while it did make Riku and Sora extremely close, Kairi was left out. Everyone saw Riku and Sora's love, except Kairi.
Riku planned on letting everyone officially know that he was in love with Sora. Now at twilight Riku turned around to fully face Sora. In return Sora moved slightly as well. Riku took a deep breath, "Sora, I have something to tell you." Sora nodded for him to continue and he does. "Ever since this whole ordeal my feeling have been changing and…I'm in love with you, Sora."
Sora blinked while Riku stared hopefully at his expected lover. "What?" Sora questioned.
Riku smiled at Sora's confusion. So to make his point Riku began to lean in to kiss Sora. But sadly and unexpectedly Sora slapped Riku across the face. Riku blinked rapidly and held his now reddened cheek. "Sora, I don't understand. Earlier you told me that you loved me."
Sora laughed, "Isn't it obvious? I say that to get you off of my back. I love Kairi." Kairi smiled evilly as Sora's hand grasped hers.
Riku stood, a few silent tears rolling down his cheeks, "This is a mean joke Sora!"
Kairi stood and dragged Sora with her, "This is no joke Riku. Prove it to him Sora." Without hesitation Sora captured Kairi's lips. Riku watched horrified as he slowly began backing away till he eventually ran away. That's when night came.
Miserably, Riku sat in his room, on the island, crying. After returning they had made their childhood getaway their home away from home. Just remembering what happened earlier that day angered him. That is till he fell asleep praying that he could fix this.

Connected by a small bridge was a small piece of land. There on that said piece of land sat Riku and Sora. Riku at age 16 with shimmering long white hair and endless blue-green eyes…is in love with his best friend Sora. Sora on the other hand is in love with Riku; at age 15 with oddly arranged short brown hair that complimented his bright optimistic blue eyes. Both were sitting side by side in deep tension.
Finally wanting to break the silence Riku smiled over at Sora. "Hey, Sora? What do you like best about me?"
Sora glanced at Riku but quickly turned away, "Well…I well…I love everything about you Riku."
Riku blushed slightly as he encircled his arm around Sora's waist. Sora snapped his head toward Riku with confusion plastered all over his features. Riku's smile brightened more as he leaned close to Sora's face. "I love you Sora. Even if you don't love me I will always love you…I promise." Riku whispered to Sora. Riku leaned in further and sealed his promise with a gentle kiss. Sora curled up into Riku's arms. Both secretly wishing no one was watching…but that's only what they thought.
Kairi had quietly snuck up behind the boys only to see them cuddled together. Instead of speaking up and being the better person, Kairi ran off with an evil plan in mind. Kairi arrived at the small dining area where they all ate…all five of them.
Yes five; Kairi, Riku, Sora, Roxas, and Axel. After everything that had happened, Roxas had got his own body and Axel somehow revived.
Kairi pulled out two paopu fruit from her small bag. She cut each one in half and ate a half of each fruit. Once that was done Kairi began to walk to Riku's room with both different halves of the fruit. Once in his room she saw a neatly folded note on Riku's bed. Being nosy, Kairi unfolded it and read it. The note was from Axel who was telling Riku about the fruit and their plan to get some. Kairi stormed out of the room without another thought and into Sora's. That's where Kairi wrote a note that read, 'for you my love', and left. While walking out Kairi placed the other half of the other paopu fruit on the dining table, forgotten to her other half of the plan.

On the Beach at Nightfall
Axel was lying down on the blanket right before the midnight blue water. Sitting next to Axel is Roxas, who is currently munching on a sea-salt ice-cream. Axel stands tall at age 18 with spiky red hair, bright emerald green eyes, and underneath his eyes are upside down teardrops the color of violet. Roxas tossed his now finished sea-salt ice-cream down on the blanket and smiles at Axel, "Thanks for the ice-cream."
Axel sits up, "Nah, don't worry 'bout it. So are you ready, love?" Roxas leans back as Axel leans forward. Axel smirks, "Didn't know you were so shy. It's only a kiss."
Roxas' eyes widened. "Get away Axel. I don't love you at all."
Axel stands up, "Roxas…you don't mean that."
"I do mean it. I don't love you at all." Roxas says coldly and stands up himself.
Axel bows his head, "If you don't love me then kill me…you said…we could be somebody together…as long as we have each other."
Roxas smiles, "I don't need you, I have Kairi." With that Roxas walks away in search of Kairi. Thus leaving a heartbroken Axel.
/Begin Flashback/
Axel told Roxas that he had saved him a sea-salt ice-cream. So Roxas had left in search of it. But coming into the dining area he saw a paopu fruit on the dining table. Thinking Axel had left it for him to find then adding to that he found a note that was ripped in half. Hurried writing read, 'for you my love.' So, Roxas ate the half of paopu fruit and returned to Axel not knowing what he'd done.
