Chapter 1: A Lost Soul
Thud. Thud. Thud. The sound of shoes hitting the ground echoed in the empty darkness as the owner of them looked around curiously, his white, spiked hair and blue and yellow clothing seeming to glow.
There was only a grey pathway to walk on, and everything else was black, and he was afraid to stray off the path since it seemed like you would fall forever if you did. The boy was also completely alone, from what he could see. Alone in the darkness.
"Sora, where am I? When I closed the door with you, I was transported here. Why am I here?" the boy yelled, expecting an answer. All he got in response was the echo of his own voice, reflecting off of nothingness.
"SORA!" he yelled as loudly as he could, running down the twisting path to try and find his friend.
As he continued on, he saw a light in the distance. It looked more like a spotlight the more close he came to it, and soon he noticed someone standing beneath it. He ran to the light, thankful that he was not alone while the closer he ran to the person, the more it looked like one of his friends, Kairi.
"Kairi?" he whispered faintly to himself, before slowing down to a near stop. "Kairi!" he called out to her, running to her turned back. Then when she turned around, he saw it was not her.
This girl was similar to his friend Kairi, but she had much darker hair; it was the same length, however. Kind of black with a red tinge. She was wearing the same clothing as Kairi would, only in darker shades.
She smiled at him before bringing her gaze back up to the focus of the light.
"I think we go up," she stated calmly, not turning to him when she spoke.
"What?" the boy answered, walking into the light with her. "I don't get what you mean."
"I think we go up," she stated firmly again, her gaze seemingly fixed on the light. As soon as she said those words again, she quickly grabbed the boy's wrist, and they both lifted into the air, the light getting brighter and more blinding as they floated into the source.
The boy gasped when he opened his eyes. He was on top of the Gizmo Shop in Traverse Town. The bell tower. Running towards the edge of the building he touched one of the large pillars to make sure he wasn't dreaming. This seemed too weird to be true, but then he remembered the girl and swivelled around on the spot, spotting her sitting on a large crate.
"Who are you? How did you do that? Where were we?" the boy bombarded her with questions, slowly stepping towards her as he did so. She just giggled; the same way Kairi would have.
"First, I need to know this: you're Riku, right?" she asked him, hopping off the crate. The boy noticed she wore a black trench coat over her clothes now.
"Yes," Riku responded wearily. How did she know his name? Now it was time for her to answer his questions. "Your turn."
"My name's Hikari, and we were in the 'Realm of Darkness.' It's where all lost hearts go when they're separated from their bodies'," Hikari grinned and folded her hands behind her back.
Riku was stunned. This Hikari girl knew a lot, and she looked and acted exactly like Kairi.
"Why were you there?" Riku asked Hikari, and regretted asking the question as soon as he saw the hurt look on her face.
"I'd prefer not to discuss that right now," she explained, "since I don't really know how I got there myself. A man's voice just told me to stand under that light and wait for 'Riku' which I now see is you." Hikari sighed, and then walked over to Riku. "Promise you won't ask me too much personal stuff?" she pleaded, taking his hands in hers. All Riku could do was nod before quickly taking his hands from her.
"So where do we go now?" Riku then asked, turning his back to Hikari.
"Simple," she stated, standing on Riku's right side, "We go find Sora."
------------------------------------ Sorry, but I figured that the chapters were too short, so I merged them. Probably will be doing that a lot, though. So get used to it. :D Anyway...
