A/N: lol, I was sorta playing KHI&II, and I passed both and I basically stayed up for 3 days straight, and while I was playing I realized that Riku somewhat looks like Hope. And its funny cause I thought to myself, what if they met?. So, my OC, Danielle will be included, cause it makes the story MUCH better in my opinion, and I cant think of anything if my OC isn't in it.. .


As Hope knocked on the door of his girlfriend, Danielle, he wondered about her. For the last three days, he hasn't heard a word from her at all. No phone call, no text. So, instead of just trying to get a hold of her by calling or texting, he decided to go to her house to ask what was wrong.

Right after he knocked, in a matter of seconds, Danielle's mom answered the door, she smiled hugely after taking a glance at him.

"Hope, honey!" Danielle's mom cheered.

"Uh, hello, Ms. Jaid, by any chance, is Danielle home?" he asked.

"Yes, I'm so glad you're here! Danielle has been playing this game for the past three days nonstop, why don't you go to her and ask her to stop. Kingdom Hearts, I think it's called?"

"I don't know, I don't want to bother her-"

"I'm not saying to bother her, just try to get her to stop playing. Do what ever it takes just to get her off." she sighed, Hope nodded and went inside.

Kingdom Hearts? What game is that? , Hope thought to himself, Well, what ever game it is, it's probably something stupid..

Hope went into the hallway leading to Danielle's room, thinking that her eyes were bloodshot and the windows were closed due to the fact that she hasn't seen the sun in three days. He also imagined her with messed up hair, pajamas and a not so clean room. As he went in, he gasped. She looked nothing like he thought she would look.

Her room was clean, her eyes were still white, the windows were open, her hair was down like it always is, and she wasn't wearing any pajamas. She wore a floral shirt and some shorts to match. Her eyes were focused on the TV, playing this so called game called 'Kingdom Hearts'.

".. Danielle?" he said softly, hoping that she heard him.

"Yes Hope?" she said like she would usually talk to him. Her hands were glued to that PS2 controller like a mad man.

"Why haven't you called the past three days?"

"Sorry, I had things to do." her voice stayed the same, but she couldn't look him in the eye.

"Like, play this game called Kingdom Hearts?" Hope sighed. Danielle stayed quiet, somewhat feeling guilty about the whole thing. It wasn't really her fault that she hasn't called or texted him. It was all Kingdom Hearts' fault, it sucked her into its addicting storyline, and characters.

Hope sat next to her and said, "Come ooon! Stop playing! I haven't heard from you in days! Lets spend some time together!" he tried to get the controller away from her, but she would move her hands away so he wouldn't get it.

"Noo! Hold up, this is the last boss! Xemnas needs to be stopped!" she said, putting the controller away from a distance while Hope was trying to reach for it.

"Whose Xemnas?" Hope said, confused.

"The guy I'm fighting!" she said. While she was playing, she was fighting this 'Ansem' character. He was dark-ish and had white hair and amber eyes. The character she was using was this boy around his age with brown spikey hair and some snazzy outfit and a key for a weapon. And Hope thought that using a boomerang was stupid!

"Well, can we start spending some time with each other?"

"Wait `til I finish this fight!" Danielle said loudly. Hope sighed, and just went along with it. He laid down next to her and watched her play, she grunted, squealed and moved around as if she were in the game itself.


"Danielle, its been like an hour and your still on the same boss.." Hope said rather tired.

"I swear! I'll get it this time!" she replied, she gave out her best in the game and then she shouted, "YES! FINALLY!"

Hope smiled, finally the madness ended, "Are you done now?"

"Yes, I am, but watch the ending with me, please?" she said with eyes that you could never say no to. Hope would've said yes anyways, considering the fact that he wanted to spend time with her anyways.

"Sure, but then right after, we go to the park." he said, tickling her as a way to make her say yes.

She giggled before he even started tickling her, " Yes! Yes! Ahah- stop!" He put his hands aside, and hugged her instead and said, "I missed you so much. Next time when you know your going to be occupied with something like this, tell me, okay?", giving her a kiss afterwards.

"Of course, Hope. I promise, now look, look! That guy right there is my favorite character in the entire game!" she said breaking the hug and pointing at the screen. Hope peered over to the television screen to see the same guy with spikey brown hair and blue eyes, "That guy?" he questioned.

"No.." she said, "that guy," she smiled. The guy had silver locks of hair, pale green eyes, a well defined muscles and a very mature looking face. His outfit was a legwarmer looking thing on his arm, a yellow and white zipper thingy with out sleeves and a black shirt under it, big shoes, and blue baggy pants.

"And why is this guy your favorite?" Hope said in disgust. He thought the kid looked somewhat of a fag.

"Okay, that guy has a name, you know. It's Riku. And also, he's my favorite since he sort of reminds me of you." she smirked as she looked into Hope's eyes. He looked back into hers, trying to hold back a chuckle. When he couldn't hold the laughs, he laughed right into Danielle's face.

"How does this guy remind me of you, Dan? This guy has WAY more muscle than I do, he's probably taller than me, and he has a lot more hair than I do. This guy is so metrosexual." he laughed.

"Oh Hope, your so blind.. Do I have to explain why he reminds me of you?"

"Tell me, I'd like to be proven wrong."

"You guys have silver hair," she said while tousling his locks, "amazing and hypnotizing green eyes," she stared deeply into them.

"Is that it?" he played a smirk on his face.

She sat on top of him, carefully laying him down and tracing her finger at his chest, "You guys have some what of the same jacket. It has two colours. You also wear black underneath it.."

"I still don't get it." He winked. Danielle knew where this was getting at, he didn't want to know much more of the similarities between him and some fictional guy. He just wanted some affection, due to the fact that it's been three days that they haven't done anything touchy feely in a while.

They continued locking lips throughout the entire ending of Kingdom Hearts, not minding the voices and music from the TV. The song playing somewhat fit the scenario. It was slow, beautiful, and meaningful.

Where fears and lies melt away. You show me how to see, that nothing is whole and nothing is broken.

That line was the whole gist of the scene. Hope didn't want Danielle to go, he hasn't seen her in three days, dammit. Danielle didn't want Hope to go, she was enjoying this. She didn't want it to end now.

Then, out of complete nowhere, wind blew furiously, causing the curtains to fly. The TV shut off. In a split second, a wave of noise just burst in to the air.

"Did you hear that?" Danielle shivered from the blowing wind.

"Yeah, I did.. how did it get so.. dark?" Hope held his lover and peered out the window.

"Did time pass by that fast?"

Hope checked the time, "No, its like 2.. OH MY GOD." One arm came out of Danielle's embrace and pointed up at the sky. Danielle rubbed her eyes, it couldn't be. Was she hallucinating?

"Kingdom Hearts.. Destiny Islands.. black hole.." Danielle mumbled to herself.

"Danielle, what are you saying?" Hope said grabbing her shoulders.

"Hope, understand, this is what happened in Kingdom Hearts! In the first one, Sora's at home and then he sees this black hole, and then there's heartless.. Hope! There's Heartless outside! We have to go fight them before somebody out there gets hurt!" she said. Hope felt like she was telling him the craziest thing ever. Hope just thought that this was no big deal, if it happened in Kingdom Hearts, why would it happen here? Hope sighed, and joined her into defeating these 'heartless'.

Danielle grabbed her weapon of choice, a pair of twin blades[Taki, Soul Calibur FTW.]

Hope took out his boomerang and went with Danielle outside.

"Mom?" Danielle said before stepping out. For some reason, Danielle's mom was out of sight. She wasn't here at all. Why? She didn't mind it anymore, so her and Hope just ran out of the house.

"So, where are the heartless?" Hope asked.

"I dunno.. but, can you feel that..?" she said, getting closer to him.

"I don't know.. I think I do." Without warning, Danielle suddenly started to levitate towards the black hole. Hope grabbed her hand, praying to himself that they wont get sucked in.

"Hope, this is like Kingdom Hearts! The darkness is going to eat us up! I'm scared!"

"Don't be scared, I'll be here to go through it all with you!" He shouted, "Just hold on, we can make this through!"

She nodded at his command. During all of that, she bit her lip, and closed her eyes. Hope closed his as well, and together they started to float up into the darkness.


"Hey, I- I think they're waking up!" a voice said.

"Quick, go get them something to drink!" another voice spoke.

"Oh my god.." Danielle said getting up, seeing that Hope's hands were intertwined with hers. Using the free hand, she rubbed her eyes, and right before her, she saw.. a body of water and a beautiful orange sunset to accent it. Shortly after, Hope woke up.

"where are we?" Hope said rubbing his eyes as well.

"You're at Destiny Islands!" a female red head with a pink dress jumped in front of them and smiled, startling the couple.

Danielle gave her a funny look and so did Hope. They stared at her, and then the girl have them a nervous grin.

".. Danielle, is that-?" Hope said.

"Kairi?" Danielle spoke to her.

"Uh, yeah.. how do you know my name?" she said scared.

Danielle then realized that she didn't like Kairi, since that she was such a Mary-Sue in the game. I mean, she was a princess in the game, she had to be saved by damn Sora `cause apparently, she can't save herself.

She gave a fake smile, "Because.. I know these things, heh." she laughed nervously. She laughed as well, and then she looked forward.

A familiar spikey haired boy came with juice pouches and said, "I got them something to drink! Gosh Kairi, I come back from saving the universe and I still have to do dirty work!"

He handed them the juice pouches and grinned, "Where did you guys come from?"

"A black hole." Hope said.

"A black hole? Why does that sound so familiar?" he replied, thinking of how 'familiar' it was.

"Because you were sucked in to one, and then now your back here!" Danielle gushed.

"How do you.. know?" He said creeped out, stepping back from the two. Kairi was sort of just there watching.

Danielle tried to make something up, something clever. Something foolproof.

"Lucky guess?" she chuckled nervously.

"Oh, haha! You scared the living daylights out of me right there.. wait, I didn't catch your names." he said, "I'm Sora, by the way."

"I know that." Danielle said bluntly, Hope sort of elbowed her as a sign of, 'shut up!'

"You know his name too?" Kairi said, surprised. It'd be complicated if she told her the truth on how she knows everything about them. She can't just say, "oh hey, I know you guys because you guys are fictional and based on a popular video game! And nobody likes Kairi![no pun intended]"

"Erm- I meant by like, I know that name from somewhere. Besides that, I'm-" she was cut off by Kairi.

"Danielle?" she laughed. Her eyes widened, how did she know her name?

"How did you know?"

"Your little boyfriend there said it earlier when you guys were waking up."

They blushed, it was probably obvious that we were together for the fact that they were holding hands, but that could've meant anything!

"Oh, I did?" Hope giggled.

"I'm guessing you did." Danielle grinned.

"Anyways, I'm Hope. Hope Estheim."

"Hope.. that's a pretty name for a boy like you." Kairi smiled. Why was she always smiling?

"Yeah, Hope, I don't mean to be rude, but you look like my friend Riku." Sora said taking a good look at Hope. Danielle turned to Hope in a 'I told you so' kind of face.

"Ohh.. he does look Riku. Oh my- they even have the long hair going on, and the pretty green eyes," Kairi started describing Hope and Riku's similarities as Danielle started smiling wider, "And the layered jacket and a black shirt under, we have a match!" she started touching Hope's face and hair, which started Danielle to burst, "No touchy touchy- this is mine." She grabbed Hope's face and wrapped her arms around it. Hope's head were positioned between her breasts, he started waving his arms for air, but he enjoyed this position.. sort of.

"Oi, sorry.. " Kairi backed away.

"ahah, I was only kidding." Danielle laughed maniacally.

"I couldn't breathe in there.." Hope said heaving in and out.

"I'm sorry Hope." She kissed his cheek and Sora and Kairi awed.

Why can't me and Sora be cutesy couple like them? Gosh, I sure wish Sora was like Hope.. Kairi thought as she looked at him.

Man, I wish she was my girlfriend instead. Hope is one lucky guy. Stupid Kairi just talks about herself. Riku would love a girl like her. I wonder if she gives kisses to strangers like me.. Sora thought to himself, making face gestures, smiling at the end.

"What are you smiling at?" Kairi said.

"YOUR FACE!" he said while laughing and pointing at her. Kairi frowned and kicked sand at Sora.

Then, a voice from complete nowhere was heard.

"Why are you guys fighting, and who are these people?" the figure said. Danielle swooned and looked at Hope, "It's him." She said as she held on Hope's hand tighter.

"ow!" Hope shouted.

"Oh, dearest apologies, Hope. I'll kiss it to make it feel better," she insisted.

"No, it's okay." I'm good. He smiled, which Danielle didn't get to see. She was too busy gawking at Riku.

"Well, hello there." Riku said, turning over to Danielle and Hope.

"H-h-he-hello.." Danielle shook, and Hope felt it from her hand.

"So, what's your name? Is it as pretty as your face?" Riku's lips curled into a smile. Hope broke out in anger, "Hey, that's my girlfriend you're talking to!"

"Jeez, it was just a compliment, kid."

"I'm not a kid, excuse me. I'm fifteen, thank you very much."

"And I'm sixteen,"

"Doesn't mean I'm a kid." Hope retorted.

"Whatever then. Well, how did you guys wind up here?"

"A black.. hole.." Danielle spoke out, still sort of shocked that barely, in the first five minutes, Hope didn't get along with Riku.

"Interesting. Maybe you guys should get up and get something to eat. Come," He said, walking away while waving his hands towards him.

"I don't like him." Hope said while standing up.

"Oh come on, Hope. He's offering us to eat. It will be better, you just need to learn not to snap at him." He lifted her from the sand, and Kairi and Sora were still arguing.

"Oh hey guys. Uh, that Riku guy wants us to go eat, so.. lets go?" Hope muttered.

"Yeah, come on, lets go eat." Sora said.

"Shut up, jerk." Kairi replied coldly.

Danielle and Hope's hands laced together slowly, "This.. place.. it's beautiful." Danielle said, "Its better than it is in the game.."

"Its beautiful just like you.." Hope told her in a graceful manner.

"Hope, you flatter me."

"It's my job to flatter you." He smiled, and their lips met. They smiled between the kiss. After breaking away, then walked over to Riku's place to eat.


A/N: next chapter.. Eating at riku's house! Will Hope and Riku get along and realize that their so freaking alike?

Review? And so sorry if it sucks D:
