Thunder crashed loudly as the sky flashed a brilliant bluish white. Rain pounded against the window of a large mansion. In the current weather it looked more like a large boulder on the cliff rather than a mansion. Though in brighter weather, the mansion was a deep blood red color, and the wood work was stained black. Windows were long and thin in length but the inside was hidden from curious eyes by the inky black curtains that hung in the windows. This mansion was believed to be vacant, but there always seemed to be a firelight somewhere in the mansion. As there was now.
As the rain continued to beat at the window, a warm fire crackled in a fireplace. It gave the large room around it a soft warm glow, though at first glance no one appeared to be in the room. But, sprawled across the black leather couch was a young boy. Wet silvery hair streamed down the side of the couch as sea blue eyes watched the fire crackle and spit in the fireplace. His skin was pale, almost snow white. He was shirtless, and this revealed a well built young man. The only clothing that he was wearing was a tight pair of black leather jeans. His feet were bare as they hung over the arm of the couch. If one took in the full appearance of the man, they would be awed at how appealing he was. Possible even God like. Though as he continued to lay there, he would soon regret letting his guard down for just a moment. You see, this delectable young man did not live alone in this large mansion. As icy hands crawled up his spine, his muscles tensed and he groaned a bit. For he knew full well who was behind him, and he wasn't in the mood for him.
"Rikuuu…" The voice whined in a pouting sort of way. Groaning once more, Riku threw his hands over his head blocking his ears. For standing above him was a tall young man. He had a bit of a tan to his skin that seemed to be complemented by his spiky blond hair. Energetic blue eyes glowed in the fire light as he hung over the back of the couch. The man was also shirtless, and was also well built. Though he was wearing a pair of lose fitting black pinstriped pants and a pair of fuzzy black slippers.
"What is it Cloud?" Riku demanded sound annoyed but relaxed at the same time.
"I'm boooord…"Cloud whined once more. He continued to run his fingers up and down Riku's spine, send shivers ever now and then.
"Then go do something. I'm not in the mood for your games." Riku said pushing Cloud's hand away from his back.
"Fine…be like that, spoil sport." Cloud pouted as he left the room. Riku was soon lulled into a dream like state as he resumed watching and listening to the fire against the beating of the rain on the window.
A sigh escaped the small lips of a young boy. He was completely soaked to the bone and standing outside a airport. He was on the main land though could clearly see Destiny Island. He was… had been waiting for his cousin Roxas to come and get him for the past two hours. The young wasn't anger or anything, just a bit disappointed. The look on the boy's face seem out of place. Though he would soon turn seventeen he looked so innocent and carefree. This was true. His chestnut brown hair was spiked up in all different directions and his sky blue eyes held a never ending innocence to them. He was a bit on the shorter side and look about like a child. He no matter how hard he tried he always looked like a child. He was wearing a white T-shirt and a black hoodie over that. He wore a pair of black and white camouflage pants. Under those were a pair of black combat boots. Though the boy wasn't alone long. Soon a taller man came out and stood beside his with a annoyed look on his face as he crossed his arms. The man had shoulder length chestnut brown hair, similar to the younger boy. Though it was more flat though the ends were spiked a bit. He wore a white tank top and a black leather jacket over that. Though the sleeves of the jacket only went to his elbows. He wore a pair of black leather jeans though they were a bit lose. He wore three red leather belts around his waist and a pair of black boots. The taller man was already soaked.
"Leon…You think he forgot?" the small boy asked looking up at Leon.
"I don't know. I just called and no one answered so who knows. He could just pull in this very minute. Chill Sora, he will get here." Leon said patting his younger brother on the head. Leon was very protective of his younger brother and would go out of his way to see his brother remained innocent and happy. Though he couldn't help the fact his brother had decided to take the homosexual route like he did. Though it was that very moment a red SUV pulled up in front of the airport. A window went down revealing a young woman about Leon's age. She had wild blonde hair with beads and braids here and there. Her outfit, from what they could see was a tight long sleeved blue shirt with the letters, DIH on it. Most likely for Destiny Island High. Below that was a knee length jean skirt and a pair of black shin high boots. She smiled and waved her hand at the pair to get in.
"Sorry I'm late. Weather is terrible. Get in before it gets any worst." she said the sound of the doors unlocking could be hear.
"Where is Roxas? I though he would be with you, Rikku." Leon said getting in the passenger seat.
"He is at home with his friends. Kairi and Tidus. Though he will be happy to see you Sora. That's all he has been talking about for the past month." Rikku laughed pulling out of the airport after Sora had climbed in. It was a long twenty minute drive to Destiny Island, due to the rain and bridge was very slick. Though when the did reach Roxas and Rikku's home, Sora was greeted by three people tackling him when he came in the door.
"Sora! You're here! Some weather. If it wasn't so back Rikku would have taken all of us to come greet you!" a young boy said. He had messy spike blond hair. It almost looked like he hadn't combed it in years. He had the same sky blue eyes as Sora and the same innocent features.
"Well I glad you remembered we were coming this time, Roxas." Leon said as Rikku lead him to his room. Sora then looked over at Roxas other to friends. He assumed that the girl was Kairi. She was pretty, yes. She had shoulder length auburn hair and enchanting green eyes. She was well formed and tall. She wore a light pink jean dress with numerous zippers here and there. The other boy had to be Titus. His hair was also blond and spiked up. His eyes were a bluish green. He wore a yellow baggy shirt and a pair of lose black jeans.
"We've heard a lot about you Sora. Its nice to finally meet you." Kairi said with a sweet smile and laugh. Sora could tell she was trying to flirt with him, but it wouldn't work no matter how hard she tried. Sora just didn't go for the ladies. Roxas grabbed Sora's wrist and drug him in to what appeared to be the living room.
"Dude, we so need to do something. I'm bored out of my mind!" he said flopping down on the couch. Tidus sat down in front of the TV and unpaused the game he was playing. Sora sat down next to him and smirked when he realized it was Soul Caliber 3.
"Play ya." Sora said picking up the controller. Laughing, Tidus nodded and changed the settings so it was a two player versus game. Then game didn't last a minute before the TV announced Sora the winner.
"Dude! No one has ever beat me!" Tidus said annoyed and awed. Sora just shrugged and put the controller down.
"Don't underestimate Voldo." Sora said with a laugh as he stood.
"Lets go out!" Roxas said starting towards the door.
"What!? Its pouring out!" Sora said trying to stop Roxas.
"So. Come on. Where is your sense of adventure Sora?" Roxas laughed. Just as he opened the door Rikku appeared in the hallway.
"ROXAS! Where do you think your going!? Mom would freak if she found out you left in this weather!" Rikku said crossing her arms and narrowing her eyes.
"Chill sis! We won't go far!" Roxas said and drug Sora out the door before Rikku could stop him. Tidus and Kairi followed just as quickly.
"Gah! Mom is going to kill him!" Rikku whined and looked over at Leon. He just shrugged and went back to unpacking.
