The door closed and the light vanished. The booming of that closing was drowned out by the sudden rise of all sorts of beastly sounds. Surrounded. I was surrounded by darkness and the Heartless…I would have to find my way back through the very place I had just escaped from. I allowed a tear to slide down my face at being so hopelessly lost in the shadows of everything negative in the world. A hand grabbed onto mine and a laugh sounded next to me. The golden Keyblade glowed softly and I noticed the King smiling calmly up at me. I was not alone, at least, but in the face of all the Heartless closing in around us, I didn't see how much better things were.
"You'll be alright. We can search for the Light together." The King had too much faith in the idea of escape from our bleak situation.
"I had just escaped from the darkness…" I said softly, not looking at him. It seemed unfair that after being so close to free I was here again.
"Not many people can say that, ha ha. If you did it once, you can easily find yourself again."
AN/ I can't get over how depressing I keep making these themes sound. I've seen others and they are filled with fluffy greatness. I think the lightest thing so far has been King Mickey's laugh!...Riku should just kill himself now for all the sadness I'm making him go through. I can only hope that everybody who reads this loves it and doesn't hunt me down.
