I have no clue where the heck this came from, so please do NOT ask… however, DO review….

Sora:

I always thought of him as my best friend. A best friend that I could tell absolutely any secret to. Imagine the pain when he, Riku, joined the darkness.

It tore at my heart the first time I saw him off Destiny Islands; his aqua blue eyes were distant, cold, cruel. Even in his usual attire, it was hard to recognize him. Once so happy, so fresh and joyful…now a minion of Maleficient, of the Heartless.

And yet I still don't know what scared me the most that time, that one year ago: My former best friend now enemy, or what Kairi would have said if she saw us then: "Now Sora, I thought you two were friends." We were friends! But… no… we still are. But Riku has changed. And changed into something less than his usual self.

I'm scared of losing him again. I remember how I cried, when Kairi called the man I thought was Ansem, Riku. To tell the truth, I think I actually hoped that it was Ansem, that Kairi was wrong. I guess I just couldn't look up into the eyes of my friend… who I couldn't protect…Even though I swore to, swore to protect everyone!!!

And yet… those images still haunt me. Riku might have come back, by he still hangs between the two: in the twilight.

He can never belong to the light ever again, all because of me.

He can never belong to the darkness, because I would be the one to kill him.

In other words, he can never truly belong.

All.

Because.

Of.

Me.

Riku:

It's my fault. Everything that has happened is my fault. And that is a solid, provable fact.

He vowed to protect, me, Kairi and everyone else, while I silently vowed to assist him in any way possible.

But what did I do? I sided with the darkness, believing that he meant only us. That he cared ONLY for us. But he doesn't.

That Sora.

I was the fool to believe my life consisted only of me and those around me. But Sora saw more, even without the Keyblade's power. He saw that there are others. Others in need of protection. And while he risked his life to protect those he knew so little, I betrayed him.

I joined Maleficient. I thought she was right…no hoped she was right. Hoped that Sora was the traitor, thinking of his priorities first. But what would Kairi have said? "Geez Riku, I thought you two were best friends." I think we still are. Or at least I hope we are.

But it's hard to know that Sora's pain built and shaped by me.

It.

Is.

All.

My.

Fault.

Heh… I hope you sort of liked it….Maybe you could spare a minute and review?
