Darkness is all I see. No, I'm not surrounded by Darkness. There's just something wrong with me.

But my friend, Cloud, doesn't think that.

I've been blind ever since I was a girl, after an attack. I only remember seeing my beautiful world, with my friend, Hikari, my mother, and that sudden attack. I hummed a lullaby that my mother sang me. I think it was called "Simple and Clean". I heard three pairs of footsteps.

"Gwarsh… what do you think this world is called?" Voice 1 asked.

"Let's ask her." Voice 2 said.

"She seems busy." Voice 1 said.

"Sora, stop!" Voice 3 said.

"Hello?" Voice 2, or Sora, asked.

"This world is called Olympus Coliseum. You're here to sign up for the games right?" I asked.

Sora was surprised but he didn't want to show it. "How did you know?" He asked.

"I couldn't help but to overhear your conversation with your friends." I said.

His friends came over.

"I'm Sora; that's Donald and Goofy." Sora said.

"Well, Sora, I think I have to hear your voices to know who you are." I laughed.

"What do you mean?" Voice 3 asked.

"Uhh… I think she's blind…" Voice 1 said.

"Bingo," I said.

They were silent.

"So, who's Donald and who's Goofy?" I asked.

"Ayuck, hi there, I'm Goofy." Voice 1 said.

"Hello, Goofy." I said and leaned into a bow.

"And I'm Donald Duck." The third voice stated and I stood on ground.

"Hello, Donald and Cloud," I said.


"No, I won't fight Rika." Cloud glared at Hades.

"Come on! She's easy to beat! She's blind for Pete's sake!" Hades said.

"Still, I won't try and fight her." Cloud said and Hades laughed.

"Why? Because you love her?" Hades flashed his eyelids.

"No, because she's a friend." Cloud said.

"Hey, we have a contract and I say you finish off Rika to get to Hercules." Hades said.

"The answer is no." Cloud hissed and walked away. He found Rika on her favorite cooling spot in this world and three boys. He hid in the shadows and she said hello to him.

The boys looked back to see nobody and told her nobody was there.

"Nonsense, he's right there in the shadows." She said.

He chuckled and stepped out. "You never cease to amaze me, Rika." He said.
