A/N: This idea hit me like a truck. I had to put it up. I think this is quite original, I haven't seen a fic like this so far, so maybe it is. Whatever.

Summary; You all are probably like, what the fuck? Well, here's the deal. Kingdom Heart I and II happened, but with one difference; replace Riku with Tidus. Before you leave after hearing this, Riku is going to be in this fic. In this story, it is five years after Kingdom Hearts II and Sora has disappeared. No one knows where he is, but in history classes on the worlds the teachers teach about the Kingdom Hearts periods. As a final project, history student Riku Harada, has to do a paper on Sora and his adventures. While teachers teach a great deal on the subject of Sora's adventures ad what he did, there is little on Sora's personally. If Riku doesn't pass the paper with flying colors, he will fail the class, and consequently, he won't get his diploma next year if he doesn't pass this years. Will he be able to pull it off, or is he doomed?

Pairings: SoraRiku, Triangle; Leon, Cloud, Sephiroth. LeonCloud?. Other pairings too . . .

Warnings; Curses, non-graphic nudity, violence, blood, gore . . .

It was history class, and Riku was ready to rip his silver hair out.

They were going through the Kingdom Hearts periods. There was a year between the time periods, and both had taken a year from beginning to end. After Kingdom Hearts two, the three main players of the time periods had seemingly disappeared off the face of the worlds. Then again, it was because of them that others even knew there was more then one world.

At that thought Riku barely held in a snort, causing the teacher to glare at him for interrupting his speech about Kingdom Hearts. The teacher then went to the overhead and put something on it before explaining.

"I somehow got a hold of pictures of the three that played a major role in Kingdom Hearts"

Riku was now interested, and so was the whole class. There were almost no pictures and the few pictures that were in existence were privately owned.

The first picture was of a short haired redheaded girl that was neither pretty nor ugly. Her eye's were an almost purple color and she looked incredibly sad. The picture was a full body shot so she was able to be examined and one wouldn't miss out on a detail. She was wearing a skirt that ended at her knees and she was wearing a sleeveless black shirt underneath a white shirt.

After a full minute, the teacher finally switched to the next slid.

It was of a dirty blonde haired boy that was quite short. He was holding a long stick in one hand at his side, with the end touching the ground, and the other hand was at his side. He was looking solemnly ahead, and his blue eyes' were guarded and closed off. He was standing stiffly erect as if he had a steel rod for a back. His chin was slightly raised, and coupled with his solemn look, made for a grim parody of arrogance. He was wearing a short sleeved shirt and shorts that were frayed at the edges.

After another minute the teacher turned the slide which showed a cinnamon spiky haired boy.

He was standing and was short too. His eyes were impossibly blue and round, and his eye's were large, portraying a picture of innocent. His smile was impossibly large, as if trying to swallow you whole with one dazzling smile.

These pictures were taken, according to the teacher, a day or two before leaving their island.

"Now I'm going to show you a few pictures of immediately after they arrived back to the island."

The first picture of the group was of the girl. She had a blinding smile on her face, making her look radiant. She was a lot prettier then she had been before. Her red hair was longer, going down to her shoulders. Her almost purple eye's were radiating joy and hopefulness. She was taller then she had been, and her clothing had changed. Now she was wearing a pink dress that zipped in the front. It was unzipped to her hips and underneath she wore a white shirt. The dress had a black belt at the waist.

Next was the picture of the dirty blonde haired guy. Before his hair had been chin length, but now it was a little shorter and more blonde. He had shot up to at least five-nine and he had lost the rod he had before. He seemed to be happier then he had been, but there was still a guardedness in his eyes that would undoubtedly be there for the rest of his life. His body structure had changed too. Before he had been skinny as a stick and puny too. Now however, he was muscular, obviously having bulked up over the years.

Last but not least was the brown haired kid. He was taller then he had been before. He was probably about five-six in this picture. His eye's were a little narrower then they had been, so he wasn't so childish looking. He still exuded a small dose of innocence, but it wasn't intense as it had been in the younger photo of him. He had gained a little muscle mass but that was it.

"This is Sora, the other boy was Tidus and the girl was Kairi" the teacher said, snapping us out of our trance.
