"Riku…Riku…It's Riku…" - Sora, Kingdom Heart II


Sunshine rose from the east of Destiny Island slowly towards the center of the sky. Light began to spread across the horizon, giving its energy to feed the plants and trees and to inform the peoples that it was time to begin another daily life.

Among these peoples was a young man named Sora. Despite the light had already reached his room and was heating his face, he's lying on the bed with his eyes opened. He was staring at the ceiling as if it was the most interesting thing in the world and an indication he had awakened from his nightmare.

Some may say it was very foolish of him to have a nightmare after he had saved the world from evil dark forces and had met his best friends back, but Sora knew better. He still had a nightmare, not a nightmare about losing his best friend Kairi, but nightmare of being rejected.

'Rejected…' Sora thought. 'Rejected of what? I can't even remember the nightmare but it sure is nightmare when I kept waking up and screaming loudly…' Sora sweatdropped then sighed.

It has been a year since he had defeated the beautiful yet evil flying creature and it has been a year since he had defeated Xemnas, Ansem's Nobody and Boss of the Organization XIII. An organization where the Nobodies tried to find heart for themselves and he had met some of them: Demyx, Saix, Xehanort and even Axel.

He had defeated almost all of them during his journey around the world and within those journeys, he rejoined with his best friends back and together, they were back to Destiny Island where he lived peacefully without anything interrupting or ruining his life. Except the nightmare.

"Sora, wake up! Riku's here!" his younger brother exclaimed. Sora sighed. "Sora!"

"All right! All right! I hear you!" Sora claimed as he sat up on his bed and let out a loud sigh. "Damn…why does he have to be my brother?" Sora muttered as he listened to the sound of footsteps that were getting closer to his room and all of sudden, his door room opened and a blonde young man stepped inside.

"Wake up, sleepy head," said the young man.

"I am now, Roxas," Sora said.

Roxas, Sora's Nobody was now his younger brother also considered as Sora's twin younger brother by their neighbor and other friends. Though Roxas had returned back to his body like Namine with Kairi, but amazing thing happened after they returned back to the island when Roxas was able to free his soul from Sora's body and had his own solid body figure.

He had asked King Mickey about this news and the King himself couldn't explain how did that happened and could only made an assumption that Roxas had a strong will to become a human like Sora. The brunet had asked Roxas what made him had such a strong will and the blonde answered he wanted to find someone.

"Take a bath, Sora and have breakfast before you leave," Roxas said then turned to leave the room. "Honestly…sometimes I wonder why someone as you can become the world's hero…" muttered Roxas silently.

"Hey! I heard that!" Sora grunted. Roxas snorted. "Stupid Roxas," muttered Sora then yawned sleepily. He looked around his room to find it was messy as if hurricane had hit his room last night, and he groaned in frustration. "Great…Roxas will nag me again if I don't clean this room…" Sora sighed.

"Sora!" Roxas shouted.

"All right! All right! Be down there!" shouted Sora back. Grunted, he began cleaning his room in just one minute though not as clean as Roxas would expect but at least was not as messy as last time. Then he went to bathroom and took a bath where it only took him another minute.

After putting on his school's uniform, he grabbed his bag then ran downstairs to the kitchen. His stomach grumbling in hunger as he looked at the breakfast prepared by his younger twin brother and as fast as he appeared, he gobbled down the breakfast, without noticing someone else was with him.

"Sora…can't you at least say morning to Riku before you eat your breakfast?" Roxas asked, frowning. Sora blinked at Roxas before he looked at the handsome person sitting across of him.

"Morning," Sora said. Riku just nodded in return. Sora sweatdropped. After he and Riku returned to their island, Riku had been antisocial ever since though still as cool as ever. To be exact, he was cooler than before because of his do-not-come-near-me-attitude towards everyone.

Though he was like that, he and Sora were still best friends. They still did whatever they usually did before they left the island: dueling, racing, building some kind of tent in the forest, hanging out in secret cavern or studying together when they have homework. However, despite that, Riku rarely laughed nor smiled.

"Finish the breakfast quickly, Sora. We have less than fifteen minutes before our first class begin," Roxas said as he checked his wristwatch. Instantly, Sora quickened his pace of eating and within second, the whole breakfast was in his stomach. He grabbed his bag, gave a peek of kiss on grunting Roxas.

"See you later!" exclaimed Sora before he left with Riku.

"Honestly! I really wonder how come someone as clumsy as he can become hero…" Roxas muttered then shook his head. He then decided to clean the dishes as quickly as possible before he took his school's bag, locked the house's door then left to head for the school.

He walked slowly despite he was already late for his first class but he never really cared about it though since he would be able to catch up the study due to his amazing clever brain. He did not know where he got because it would be silly if he got it from Sora since the brunet was not that clever.

So he walked as slow as a kid while staring down at the ground all the time, thinking about a certain person at the same time. This certain person had been bugging his head as long as he could remember and the bugging itself always made him get headache all the time.

"Axel…" Roxas sighed before he looked up at the sky. "Where are you?"


"Good morning class!" chirped Sora's teacher happily.

"Good morning, sir," replied all the students lazily.

"What's this? Do I hear laziness from your tone?" The teacher quirked his eyebrow. The students sighed. "Come on students! Today is your first day as senior in High School! It's time to rule the school!"

"I just wish Wakka is here…" muttered one of the students.

"Sorry Tidus, your lovable best friend is in college already," said the teacher.

"The more reason I don't want to go to this school," moaned Tidus.

'Riku also starting his day in college…' Sora thought as he looked at the empty table next to him. 'I wish he's here with me though…'

"Okay, let me start checking your attendance. Tidus is here, Kairi is here, Selphie…" And the teacher started to call everyone's name and they raised their hand when their name was called. "Sora?"

"Here!" Sora raised his hand.

"Yes, he's here. Roxas?" The teacher looked around and saw no blonde. "Sora, where's your brother?" he asked.

"Uh…" Sora didn't know what to answer. 'Stupid Roxas! He told me to go to school early when he himself is late!' Sora sweatdropped when his teacher tapped his foot on the floor and had this you-are-in-trouble-pose. 'I'm dead…' he thought.

Or maybe not, he thought again when the door to his classroom opened and emerged inside his twin younger brother who was looking ever so miserable compared to this morning and killing Sora's will to kick his butt in the process.

"Ah Roxas. You're late," said the teacher.

"Sorry," Roxas said lazily as closed the door behind him then proceeded to his seat, and buried his face into his folded arms on the table. Sora shook his head.

'He's always like this. Sometimes I wonder what's in his mind right now…' Sora thought.

"All right class. Since today is your first day as senior, let's go out to play some games!" exclaimed the teacher happily, followed by cheers from the students. Within ten minutes, all students from Sora's class were in the Sport Complex of High School where they had many fields for every sports found in the island.

And yes, that also mean including Roxas who unwilling begin dragged by Sora and Tidus.

"Let's play Blitzball!" suggested Tidus, grinning wide.

"Good idea! Find your partners then we can begin playing! And oh, we have some students from college who would like to join us too," said the teacher. His students blinked. That was then they saw a group of students entered the complex and Tidus and Sora recognized two of them where the girls started to squeal upon seeing one of them.

"Wakka!" Tidus squealed (yes, he's squealing) and lunged himself towards his best friend who amazingly didn't fall back. "You're here! You're here! Wait, what are you doing here anyway?"

"Uh…your teacher asked us Foot-Ball player from college to come here, ya," replied Wakka. Tidus frowned then he looked at his teacher only to find his teacher had gone.

"I swear I'm going to kick that teacher's butt," Tidus hissed.

"Cheer up, Tidus! At least Wakka is here on your first day as senior!" exclaimed a redhead girl.

"Hmm…you're right, Kairi," Tidus said as he rubbed his chin. "Maybe this isn't so bad at all…" he muttered softly and a wide grin formed over his face.

"Uh…I don't like that grin, ya," Wakka said, sweat dropping. Tidus giggled to himself. Then he noticed someone else's presence in their group to find it was none other than Riku.

"Oh, hey Riku. Been a while since summer," Tidus greeted. Riku nodded, like always. "Okay…shall we begin the game?"

"Senior of High School versus Junior of College," said the teacher who suddenly appeared.

"Goodness! Do you have to be gone and appear all of sudden without warning!" Tidus hissed.

"Yeah. Whatever. Anyway, let's begin the game now. Senior of High School versus Junior of College! Tidus, you will be the captain of Senior of High School and Riku, you become the captain for Junior of College," said the teacher.

"All right then! Let me choose for my group! I want…Roxas!" Tidus exclaimed as he pointed towards the lazy blonde.

"I refuse," Roxas said. Tidus sweatdropped.

"Fine then. I choose Sora," Tidus said.

"Really? Cool!" Sora cheered.

"No," Riku said. Tidus and Sora blinked. "I won't allow Sora to play."

"What? Why?" Sora asked.

"No," Riku used his eyes to make Sora gulped.

"But I want to play…" Sora pouted.

"No and that's final," Riku said before he walked away with Wakka who gave Sora an apologetic smile. Sora frowned as he watched his best friend approached his classmates before he turned to Tidus.

"I want to play," Sora said, his hands at his hip in girly way.

"Sora, you know Riku will kill me if I let you play," Tidus said.

"Then I force you to let me play," Sora said, frowning badly. Tidus sweatdropped.

"Sora, I'm sorry but I bet Riku has a reason why he doesn't-"

"I don't care! I want to play!" Sora shouted then stormed towards locker room. Tidus sweat dropped more when then he felt cold behind him and he didn't need to turn around to find who gave him such a cold shudder.

'I'm definitely dead…'
