Chapter 2
The Ruins
Sora walked through the door and saw purple walls and covered what he thought was vines. "So how do we get through here?" he asked Toriel.
"First I should tell you we fight in the underground we don't fight with weapons. At least you don't" She told Sora. "You fight using your soul."
"What?" he asked not understanding what she said.
"Talk to the dummy." She said pointing to a weird looking dummy at the side of the room.
"Well better learn how to fight in this world." Sora said. He went to the dummy and felt his heart throbbing. "What's going on?"
"Your soul is ready to battle. Here in the underground you battle with your soul. Just talk to the dummy." Toriel said.
Sora just looked at the dummy. "Hi mister dummy."
"Good." Toriel said. "Now lets keep going." She walked into another hallway. This one looked a lot larger but this one had a yellow arrows pointing at some switches and he saw spikes at the end of the hallway.
"I'm guessing to make it through this room I have to hit the switches that have yellow arrows pointed at them?" Sora asked
"Yes would you please do that?" Toriel asked. Sora did as he was asked. "The ruins are full of puzzles."
"Great. I'm great at puzzles." Sora said. As he was walking to the next room he saw a frog.
"Just talk to the Froggit." Toriel said.
"Um. Hi Mr. Froggit." Sora said. The monster saw Toriel and ran away.
"Just call me when a monster attacks I will scare them away." She said
"Thanks Toriel."
"No problem Sora."
They walked through the room for a bit till they saw spikes. "I would normally ask you to solve this one by yourself but… just follow me" She walked making sure Sora was close behind her.
"Thanks. I didn't even know where to start with that one." Sora said.
"Well let's move on. Before we move on to this next room I feel I must ask you. How old are you?"
"16." Sora said. "I know I shouldn't but…" he started
"26." Toriel said.
"You don't look it" Sora said it which made Toriel blush.
"Hey Sora. Call me 'Mom'." Toriel asked of him
"Sure mom" Sora said smiling.
"Well this hallway is long. I want to see if you can make it to the end of it by yourself." Toriel asked
"Ok." Sora said "I'll wait here for a couple minutes." Toriel ran off. After a couple minutes Sora started walking. He summoned his Keyblade not knowing why Toriel didn't want him to walk with her. "Man this hallway is long" he said after a good five minutes of walking down it. He finally saw the end and walked to it.
"Good job my son." Toriel said.
"So what now?" Sora asked.
"Well I want you to stay here for a bit." Toriel said.
"But I can't just stay here." Sora said. Staying in one place for too long when there was more to explore killed him. He just looked at her.
"Please you must trust me." Toriel said
"There's more to explore and that creepy flower is still on the loose." Sora said. "If we are together we can possibly beat the flower."
"I will come back." Toriel said and kissed his cheek and ran off.
"Wait, mom." Sora yelled. But she was already gone. "I can't let her go. There could be Heartless or Nobodies or even the Organization. Her method of fighting won't work. Since all of them don't have emotions." He ran after her ready to tackle the rest of the ruins himself.
