Sora looked at the letter he received from King Mickey in his hand. 'This will never end, but at least Riku and Kairi will be beside me to help me.' Sora thought as he looked up at the blue skies as cotton candy clouds rolled on. He often thought about how Riku and Sora finally revealed their true feelings, how they wanted to be like each other. Kairi saw Sora on the little island from the beach, she noticed he would sometimes be lost in his thoughts and look at the sky, its pretty ironic how is name means sky and it seems that he was always lost into it.
"Sora. . ." Kairi whispered, she was a bit concerned for the fifteen year old. A sixteen year old silver haired boy came walking up to her, he definitely taller then the fifteen year old girl, who had been his friend during childhood.
Riku placed a hand on Kairi which caused her to turn around to see his smile and slight nod, "He'll be fine." Riku assured her as she smiled and nodded her head as well. They have been on the island for two months now, but their minds never forgotten their journeys.
:-:o:-: At Night :-:o:-:
Riku laid in his room, into a deep slumber. He would constantly dream of the darkness that had consumed him those months ago. In this dream, Riku was floating in darkness, he could still hear those words Zexion tormented him with:
"You hated being an islander, cut off from other worlds. So you opened the door to darkness and destroyed the islands. YOU did that! And now you belong to the darkness. Look at what you are!"
Riku winced as his body was still, he could barely move its as if the darkness had him tangled in a web. He cried in pain only to hear his voice echo until he saw a bright light and an image of Mickey appeared as the King spoke to him:
"Your darkness belongs to you. Just like your light. Until now, I thought darkness was nothing but bad. But my time with you made me change my mind. You've chosen a road I never thought of. Light and Dark, back to back. With you, they mingle in a way no one's ever seen before. I want to see where that road leads. And if it's okay, I want to walk the road with you."
Everything seem to brightened and Riku was able to escape his dream. Riku sat up panting heavily as sweat beads rolled down his head. He looked around in his dark room as the Moonlight shined through the window. Riku was lost in darkness and light, he hated that he was confused but Mickey had made it seem like it wa a good thing, and he had someone who could understand him. Riku sighed.
:-:o:-: With Sora :-:o:-:
Sora couldn't sleep, he had a number of days when this would happen. He constantly thought about Mickey, Donald, and Goofy, also all his other friends in Radiant Garden and in other worlds. At time he would often dream about Axel, he wondered if he felt a familiarization with Axel because of Roxas, and he sometimes often wished if he could free Roxas and Namine.
"I'm not tired, I'm so bored. What can I do at a time like this?" Sora groaned as he scratched the back of his head, he hated when he couldn't sleep because boredom filled the dark room, "I wonder if Kairi and Riku often can't sleep like me, Riku can overcome anything so I doubt it." He looked out the window, he could still remember when he saw Kairi during the meteor shower, when they were younger. He smiled at the memory. Then all of sudden he decided to read the letter again, he jumped out of his bed and to his dresser and picked up the rolled paper, he unrolled it and read the King's words once more:
Dear Sora, Riku, Kairi,
I'm sorry to tell you this paradise won't last much longer, I'm going to need your help again. This is a very serious problem. I hope you guys will pull through to me for a third time.
Thanks ya'll,
Mickey
P.S. Sora and Riku, be careful.
Sora wondered what would arise from the darkness this time, another organization, another Xehanort heartless or nobody, or even worse then that. The very thought made him angry and confused. He placed the letter down and looked at his reflection, he noticed how much he aged after all this time.
:-:o:-: The World That Never Was :-:o:-:
A spiky red haired boy stood there in his black cloak, he looked at his glove covered hands. 'How is this possible? I don't understand.' He thought as his green eyes looked around at the place he use to call home. He placed his right hand over his chest, where he wished a heart would be. Fortunately it was there, a heart pounding in his chest. He smiled, he was just like Sora and his friends, he was real, not a nobody.
"But if I have a heart and returned, this means Xemnas and the others have too. I have to find Sora, hopefully Roxas will be with him." Axel raised his left hand in front of him as a dark portal opened and he walked through.
