Chapter Four
Kairi sat with Riku, Sora and the other around the table; she had explained everything that had happened. Also the other rooms they had checked appeared to be another bedroom and a master study. Everyone had search but hadn't found anything on value towards helping Kairi remember. Leon and Yuffie however were still looking in case.
"You lived with her Kairi so that means you were close" Sora said holing her hand. The King had his hand over his head and was deep in thought, Riku had rosed from the table and was looking at books in the nearest bookcase.
Kairi looked at Sora, he was definitely concerned. Kairi closed her eyes, and took a deep breath. She felt herself slipping into something her heart seemed to be glowing in her mind. The images started to appear, but very blurry. She was lying on the ground, a circle of light around her, she could make out to figures but couldn't quite make out whom. Then one turned and looked at her, it was the girl. But much younger, barely ten years old.
She was saying something; Kairi couldn't quite make it out. The image was getting blacker, she heard Sora calling to her, the heard the King telling him to be silent. Kairi was trying to focus but on what, "Kairi everything's going to be alright, when you wake up this will be like a bad nightmare" Kairi could see clearer now, the girl had said that to her. She then saw the face off the other woman, with dark hair and gold eyes, gold eyes like the girl. The girl then faced her, tears down her eyes, "Ill always love you Kairi, My..." There was screams, the woman on the other side was screaming, the girl then raised her blades and great light and darkness covered her and swarmed out towards Kairi she saw herself in the darkness, and she shouted something.
Kairi jumped from the seat everyone looking at her. "Neon, her names Neon" She turned to Sora then Riku, "and she's my sister"
The King looked at Kairi, "Are you sure" Kairi nodded, it made some much sense, the heart necklace, the pictures. And the look in the girls eyes, such sadness."How long was she in the darkness" Kairi looked at Sora "I have to find her". The King rose from his chair, "Well Kairi if you're right, I don't think she'll be far. After all she wants to protect you." Kairi nodded. And with that she ran out of the room, and threw the halls, and outside the castle to stand on the bridge. "Neon" she screamed, the others all standing behind her. "I know you're here I can feel you"
Neon stood behind one of the statues that clung to the castle looking at Kairi, 'Damn this was going to make it harder, when there were younger the seal was easier to do. After all a Childs mind is easier to wipe but know.' "Neon" Kairi called again, Neon turned away and lent on the statue. "What am I going to do?"
"You could answer her for a start" Neon looked up and there stood Riku leaning against the top of the statue, she moved back and was pushed against the wall. She looked at Riku's clear blue eyes, they looked as nearly haunted as their own.
"Riku what you doing" Sora called out to him. "How did you know I was here" Riku gave her a half smile "I was in the darkness for a while, I could feel you" Neon could hear the others calling to Riku. "I can't" Neon held her keyblade of darkness in her hands and started to disappear into the wall. "No you don't" Riku jumped off the statues and into the darkness.
"Riku" Sora climbed up where he had seen Riku disappear, he wasn't there, and he looked down to Kairi. Her face was sad "She's gone"
Riku was lying on a hard surface, like a road. He looked up and all he saw was buildings covered in the darkness. It reminded him of "The World That Never Was" Yet this one had buildings that seemed like they had being broken.
"You Idiot" Riku turned his head and there stood Neon, in her black cloak as before, but this time with an irritated face. "You shouldn't have followed me here"
Riku rose and looked her up and down "Do you normally dress like a nobody?" Neon seemed confused, the shook her head. "I'm sending you back" She turned her back and grabbed her key of darkness "There is no point of doing that unless" Neon turn her face showing anger "Unless what" Riku's face was a stern as hers. "Unless you plan to follow" Neon's eyes blazed, she made a humph sound and started to walk away. "I'm not going back to see Kairi, it will do nothing but hurt us both" Riku looked at the Neon walking away. "Both?" he said. She stopped without turning; he noticed that there appeared to be things moving in the distance. "Well I guess it's more me, after all when I take Kairi memories in order to seal Doren again, I'll have to suffer all over again. So the less contact" She turned to Riku with a sad smile. "The better for me"
