Chapter One – Darkness
We arrived in the castle without any other delays, the trip was still quiet while we gone through the castle's enormous gates, and we're walking to what I believed to be the throne room, but then my senses faded for a moment and all turned black.
-- You will regret throwing the darkness aside, Riku – Sounded a strident voice in the deep darkness, that echoed a few minutes...
-- W-Who's there?! – I shouted – Sora?! – the sound of my voice kept echoing in the darkness for more time than I could count.
-- Don't you recognize your best friend, Riku? – When I realized we were outside the castle, in some unknown place, and there he was, Sora, looking exactly as he was on the beach moments ago.
-- You're not the same Sora I knew! – I shouted unable to keep my voice tone low.
-- What are you saying? I'm still the same! But, I just realized that it's futile to run from the darkness! – He was walking on my direction, even tough it looked like he wasn't getting near.
-- The Sora I met would never be so foolish! – I yelled at him, waving my hands around, I just noticed the Way to Dawn was still with me.
-- Don't be a fool! – He said rising the KeyBlade, then a Huge, demonic looking Heartless appeared out of the night shadows – This, is the real power o a KeyBlade wielder, Riku! The power to control the Dark Portals! I could easily break the bonds between the worlds if I wanted to! But I won't do this, I'll wait patiently until you decide by yourselves, if you'll come to my side…or if you'll be smashed by the power of darkness!
-- Sora, you IDIOT!!! – I yelled at him throwing the Way to Dawn on him with all the strength I had in me, but he reflected it with the strange KeyBlade.
-- Riku, you fool, Light is no match for Darkness! Testify the power of the Way to Twilight! – He jumped on my direction swinging his KeyBlade at me, luckily I made to recover my Way to Dawn before it hit me.
Such was the strength of the impact that sparks came out of the KeyBlades, But Sora didn't look like he felt the impact, and attacked again and again and again, until his body moved strangely for a second's fraction, I took the chance to hit his KeyBlade, that slipped from his hand and flew to the wall, vanishing into a Dark Portal, Sora retreated some steps and the KeyBlade appeared again in front of him, he came again, but it was too slow, and I could hit the back of his neck with Way to Dawn's base, he spitted some blood.
-- You changed…Riku… — He said cleaning his mouth.
-- …You too, Sora – I answered while I saw him vanishing into a Dark Portal, but I couldn't think about it so much because an enormous foot attacked me and everything turned black again…
-- Riku…Riku! C'mon Riku, wake up! What's happened with him? He was walking with us and then suddenly he fainted – it was Kairi's voice, she sounded like she was worried, I tried with little success to sit – Riku! You're alright! I'm so relieved… – she said letting out a long sigh.
-- Get out of the way! – shouted a silver haired man, with him were two other men, also with silver hair, that passed by without saying anything more.
We sat near the wall for two minutes or so, and then we continued to the throne room.
-- Tell us now and we'll do as you demand! — shouted a voice coming from the room.
-- Just when all of this ends! – answered King Mickey's voice
-- Our Kaa-San first! – shouted another voice
-- You train the silver haired boy, then I tell you! – answered the King, at this point we're behind the door listening, my hand moved to my hair.
-- We won't train an inexperienced boy like this…Riku! – shouted a third voice.
-- Who are you calling inexperienced yo--… -- when I realized I already had kicked the door open, there was King Mickey and the three men who gone past us just now, Donald and Goofy were also there.
-- If you train this boy, I'll tell you anything you want to know about your…Kaa-San – said the King, he doesn't expect me to accept that like this, does he?
-- What are you talking about?! Why do I have to be trained by these guys? I can defeat Sora alone, you know! – I complained.
-- No, you can't, not the way you are now – he answered.
-- But, why?! I've already won many times! I can win again now! – of course I could!
-- Hmm… Interesting boy… Mickey, we do accept your terms…Loz? – said the shorter of the three.
Then, in an amazingly fast movement the bigger guy took Kairi's arm and pulled her.
-- Ouch!! Free me, you… -- she shouted.
-- What about this: you also accept your King's deal peaceably, or the girl dies. – What?!
-- Free her you monster!! – I shouted taking my hand to the Way to Dawn.
-- Come and get it! – shouted the shorter guy, taking a double bladed sword.
Without being able to hold me, I jumped to him striking many times with the Way to Dawn, but he could defend all of those easily, until I lost sight of him, and tasted blood, he had hit my neck with the sword's base. ( He could've easily killed me )
-- Forget it, boy, you don't have to pretend you're strong – said him.
-- Don't talk about things you don't know! – and with a bit of fear I jumped on him again.
Some movements tuned a little more visible, but once again my vision failed me and I lost the concentration for a second's fraction.
-- Riku!! – shouted Kairi.
-- It's enough, Kadaj!! – shouted the King.
Only then I noticed the sword's blade were just about my neck. (Who is this guy...)
-- Bah, it's not even worth the time – he said.
-- Riku, you need to train, we don't have a choice, if you don't become stronger, we're all lost… -- explained Mickey, I still couldn't believe that this guy defeated me so easily.
-- Free me! – shouted Kairi.
-- You can free her, Loz – said the shorter.
-- Riku… -- She said, and kneed about my side…
