Napper42: yay for multi chapter stories! this is going to be great, I am hoping to make a few fans from this. so let me explain what I am doing here because it is probably not going to be clear right away for all of you.

i'm talking to you, imaginary stupid guy that lives in the corner of my room. wait, what? so what I have done here is taken kingdom hearts characters and sort of put them in different positions then they were originally in, and this chapter is about Sora and Riku. I will not be giving you their life story because that would be too easy for you, and I understand that it is a little messed up, like Riku and Sora never met before, even though acording to their usual story line they lived on the same island. so DON'T CRY ABOUT IT! I like messing with things and you have to admit, you like to see it slightly messed up. ok, I am a little busy building and oil well with my bare hands while fending off a rainbow elephant and running a skittle farm so I am going to let the warning gnome fill you in in the legal crapola, WARNING GNOME!

George the waning nome: oops, my name tag is misspelled, hold on.

George the warning gnome: Napper42 does not own kingdom hearts or any of its characters, there is some icky language-

Napper42: icky language? what are you, five?

George the warning gnome: in gnome years, human years or dog years?

Napper42; never mind, these writer's notes are getting a little long just get on with it.

George the warning gnome: there is some coarse language and-

Napper42: and one guy calling another guy cute so RUN HARDCORE HOMOPHOBES, RUN! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA... ok, bye have fun.

Chapter one:

Tall, dark and lonely

Riku walked down the sidewalk looking down. He loved his little life of fighting heartless and helping people who were in trouble, but he always kept his head down and avoided anyone he could. If someone was around he would hide his face under his hood, so no one could ever know who he is or want to be friends, plus when someone asked him who he was, he just loved saying "it doesn't matter" cliché, yes, but still awesome.. He just didn't like complications in his life; it made everything, well, complicated. But lately he had been feeling alone, he wanted someone to care for, someone to talk to…. But anyone he let into his life would be in danger, heartless would always be an issue; he could never just let one go because he had a date to catch. That would be wrong…. And it's not like he could take someone along to kill things….

"What the hell?" Riku said as a young boy ran right past Riku, he was running so fast that he could barely see any part of the boy, and then he saw why. A neoshadow, there was no way a boy like that would survive a neoshadow, good thing he didn't have to with Riku here. Riku got out his sword and started running after it, almost shouting 'NO!' when he saw the boy run down an alley that lead right to a dead end, running as fast as he can as the heartless followed the boy.

He got to the entrance of they alley and rand down it, he could still barely see the boy with the neoshadow in the way, but he knew he was probably near the end of they alley, and that meant it might be the end of the boy too, since the heartless was moving too fast for Riku. While he was running he tried to look around the neoshadow to see the boy, and suddenly when the boy was close to the wall, he jumped the wall, hitting it with his foot and jumping again off of it, something just appearing in his hand that Riku couldn't see, throwing it at the neoshadow. The object spun towards the neoshadow quickly, hitting it and then going right through it since when it hit, the heartless disappeared. 'Killing a neoshadow in one hit? Who is that kid?' Riku thought as the object flew right in front of Riku's face, stopping its forward movement although still spinning, and then flying right back into the boy's hands.

Riku could now see the boy, his brown, spiked hair, his yellow shoes and brightly colored clothes, he definitely had no problem with attracting attention, on most people those clothes would look odd, but this kid made it look cute. Wait…. No, not cute, a random stranger couldn't be cute, that made things complicated, he didn't even know this kid's name, no, the cute thing was just a slip of the tongue, nothing more. "Nice moves for a kid." Riku said, even though he thought the boy was beyond impressive, but didn't want to admit it, it's a guy thing. "Yeah, and nice clothes for an emo guy" the boy said, chuckling. "Haha, what, these? This is the newest style, the whole primary color thing was so last year" Riku laughed, he hadn't talked this much with anyone in a long time, why did this kid make him so…. Relaxed?

"Ha, well at least I can out run a neoshadow, slowpoke." The boy laughed again, and what a nice laugh it was, like he was just made to laugh and be happy. Riku looked at the object and realized it was…. A key? The kid carries around a damned key and kills things with it? This is what took out the neoshadow with one hit? No way, this had to be a trick, he had to be on candid camera or punk'd or something. "Yeah, well at least I don't carry an oversized key with me. Riku chuckled, looking around for the cameras. "Haha, it's a key blade, or rather THE keyblade, umm…." "The names Riku, kid." 'Why did I tell him my name?' Riku thought. He had never told anyone his name, it made things complicated. "Ok, then it's the keyblade, Riku. And my name isn't kid, it's Sora." "Sora, I like that name…. so, umm…. I guess I'll be going now." "Wanna get some ice cream?" Sora said with innocent happiness. "Ice cream?" "Yeah! I found this place in twilight town that sells sea salt ice cream; it tastes salty, but sweet at the same time. I like it!" "Umm, ok, sure, sounds good." Sora walked ahead, leading the way. Riku's eyes slowly trailed downward until he was looking at the surprisingly nice butt walking in front of him…. Wait, what? No, no, that's not where he was looking, it had to be something else, that would make things, say it with me now, complicated…. END CHAP 1

so what did you think? wait, hold that thought, don't tell me now, wait until you hit the review button, write it down in the review section because I can't hear right now because my ears are clogged with the guts of a skittle monster... long story... lets just say that it was a bad idea hiring a mad scientist at my skittle farm, now I have to rebuild it, and he had the mad scientist hair too... it was awesome... but cowlicks are way better... whatever... umm... *flees* oh, and the next chapter should be posted too *flees out of hearing distance*
