Chapter 2: Where are we Going?

We had been walking for at least several hours, but it seemed like it had been days. We hadn't stopped for any breaks and I the lack of sleep was catching up to me. Earlier when we had started walking, Riku had explained what had happened inside that stupid castle, and how Sora had been put to sleep to get his memories back. What he had neglected to explain was where we're going.

"Riku…?" I asked quietly.

"Hmm?"

"Umm….where exactly are we going?"

"Twilight Town. It shouldn't really take us long to get there if we stay on the path." Twilight Town? Well, even though I haven't been there before, it still sounds pretty decent.

"How long will it take us to get there exactly?" There was no way I was gonna walk for more than one day with out a break!

"If we keep walking, early in the morning, but if we stop and take a break, we would probably get there late in the afternoon or evening."

"Oh." That was all I said. I wanted to get there as soon as possible, but I wanted to take a break.

We continued walking in silence for another hour or so, and then I finally couldn't take it anymore!

"Riku, can we please take a short break? My legs feel like lead, and im tired. Please!!!!!! Only 5 or 10 minutes, I promise!" I got on the ground on my knees and looked at him, a pleading look on my face.

"Why? The towns just right over there." He pointed over to something in the distance and sure enough, it was the town!

"Oh…" I stood back up and dusted myself off. "Well, lets go-" Riku grabbed my arm as I was about to dart off. I looked up at him, and he looked…sad and worried.

"Riku…what's wrong?"

"I need to know….are you mad at me?" His hair covered his eyes as he looked away from me and at the ground.

I frowned slightly upon hearing his question. "No…why?"

"Because of all the things I've done…How I ignored you and Sora when you tried to help me ….the darkness….everything…."

Ventus' theme playing: (This will be considered May's theme for the time being.)

"I've done so much wrong…I've hurt other people because of it too….I'd figure that you would hate me for it…"

I put my hand on his shoulder as he continued to speak. "I refused the light when you offered it to me…and chose the darkness over it."

"Riku…I don't hate you…I could never hate you even if I tried…." he looked up at me as I spoke. "Sure, you gave into the darkness, but you overcame it. Yes, there is still some left in you, but what you have to realize is that it's yours now…along with your light. No one can control it but you and, you alone." I smiled at my words, proud of how deep I my words were.

"But…" He looked at me sadly as he spoke. "How can my light be mine if I cant even control my darkness?"

I squeezed his shoulder gently and reassuringly. "That's what friends are for. They are your light. I will do anything-no matter what it takes- to help you control your darkness. I'll be there, no matter what!" I smiled brightly at him, hoping he could understand my words.

He smiled at me, but I could still see in his eyes that he was still unsure of everything.

"Come on Riku." I tugged on his sleeve. "Lets go."

He nodded. "Right." With that being said, we both began to walk away.

"Oh, and May?" Riku said as we walked towards the town.

"Hmm?"

"Thank you."


"So….?" I looked around the town. It was still pretty dark outside, and empty. "Where are we supposed to go?"

"The mansion in the woods."

"Is that where Sora is?"

"Yeah."

"Do you think Mickey and DiZ will be there?" I would be happy to see the king, but I wasn't all to enthused about DiZ…he was an…odd character.

"Probably. Come on, the sooner we get there, the better." He grabbed my wrist and started to run towards the woods, dragging me along with him.

"Gahh!" I shouted as we nearly missed a tree. I didn't really like the whole idea of running around in the woods late at night…it seemed kinda scary if you ask me.

"Finally. Were here." We were standing in front of the gates of the mansion. We lingered there a little longer until Riku pulled me forward with him as he walked to the doors of the mansion and opened them.

"Eww! When do you think was the last time they dusted this place?" I coughed a little as the dust was blown in my face.

"Good, you two made it here safely!" I turned at the source of the voice, and was met with the face of the king.

"Your majesty!" I whisper shouted, knowing he didn't want anyone else to know where he was.

He smiled brightly as I ran up to him and bent down to his level to give him a nice hug. He patted my back.

I stood back up and went to stand back in my place next to Riku and let him do the talking.

"How was your trip here?" the king asked us.

"Very long and tiring. My legs feel like lead." I muttered the last part to myself quietly.

"Can you take me to see Sora now?" Riku seemed to had grown more impatient since we had first gotten here.

"Sure, but first you need to see DiZ. May, you can come and meet Namine while Riku talks to DiZ." He pointed over to the way DiZ was to Riku. "That's where you'll find him. I'll take May to meet Namine." We all went our separate ways from there. Mickey and I entered a room with these weird pod things, where there was a girl with shoulder length blonde hair sitting in a chair in front of them, a sketch pad and notebook in her lap. She looked up from it when we entered the room.

"Hello," She stood up and walked over to us. "You must be May. It's very nice to meet you. Im Namine." She smiled warmly at me, and I couldn't help but return the smile.

"It's nice to meet you too Namine."
