ShadowedDarkness: I got such a big freak'n headache!!!

Riku: So…

ShadowedDarkness: IT"S YOUR FAULT THAT I HAVE ONE! (glares daggers)

Riku: um, you do know that I'm just your figment of your imagination right?

Sora: You are?!

Riku: Well….

ShadowedDarkness: Leave me alone you evil peoples!! (sob) STAY OUT OF MY HEAD!!!

Sora: umm, as you can see, our author isn't very well at the moment…

Riku: she was never well to start off with.

Sora: …oh, yeah. Well, on to the story. But first….we do not own kingdom hearts or any of its characters and the only thing heather-chan does own is this freakishly awesome plot. So there you evil lawyers!!!

Memory

"Sora-aa-a…" I shivered. It was cold here. Where here was, was still a mystery to me.

It was dark. The shadows almost looked as if they were moving, bright yellow eyes glowing from within the darkness. I shivered again, but it wasn't from the darkness, it was from the sheer savage hunger that they portrayed.

I decided I didn't like the dark…

"Sora-a-a…"

"Who's th-there?" I whispered.

But the only thing that answered me was the resounding echo of my own voice. And then there it was…that feeling of dread clawing its was through my abdomen. Something was wrong.

Pain suddenly ripped through me as laughter filled the air, searing hot pain flashed through my body, fire running through my veins. Gasping for air I gripped my chest. The pain… it was, it was in my heart!! Laughter filled the darkness surrounding, causing my head to pound with each passing moment.

The darkness swirled around me, colors appearing in certain spots, blurry images flashing before my eyes. But one thing stood out from the mass of swirling colors and objects.

A pair of concerned and frightened sea green eyes stood out from everything. A face was slowly appearing to go with those eyes. "Sora-a!!"

The voice no longer scared me. It was calling out to me, warning me.

"SORA!! Lo-…"

Maniacal laughter filled the area around me, cutting off the pleading cry before it ever really started. The pain gripped me in its foul clutches, causing me to gasp for air. I couldn't breathe any more, I realized dully as everything slipped in and out of focus, I couldn't breathe…

Gasping for air, I shot up from my bed. The echoes of the dream flashing across my minds eyes. It was so real. Grasping the shirt above my aching chest, I took in a deep shuddering breath. Shifting my eyes to my alarm clock on the other side of the room, I groaned.

The clock only read- 3:30…am….

Peeling the shirt off from my now soaked body, I turned my thoughts back over to the dream, no, nightmare. But it was slipping away. I was trying to grasp the fleeting images, but they were slipping away. It was almost like trying to cup water in the palm of your hand. The water would start slipping through the cracks to overflow over and around your fingers. Never leaving a trace that water was ever there, except for the ghostly chill of the liquid still against your skin.

Shaking my head I sighed. It was too early to be thinking like this. I mean honestly, I sounded so much deeper in thought when I was half asleep.

Ugh, scratch that….

I think I just proved my lovely new theory wrong.

Rolling over I sighed. Sleep just didn't want to come to me lately did it? The first day of my arrival I woke up almost this early too. And then there was the day I woke up at five in the morning and then decided to go dancing in the rain. Now, just after my first day of school, I was already having problems sleeping.

I vaguely remember telling my mom the last time when dreams like these happened. Scared the shit out of me and then disappeared before I could even realize what the hell had just happened. You know, the type of dream that I just had…yeah…

After telling her what happened, I don't remember anything afterwards but us moving a few days later. It scared me that I couldn't remember, that I had these gaps in my memory.

But I will never forget the looks on my friend's faces, or, the people who I thought were my friends. They had completely ignored, hell, they flat-out avoided me when I tried to say good bye to them. But its okay I guess. Now that I look back on it, they weren't exactly the best friends somebody could have had anyway.

But, the people from this new school were different. I could list people that I knew liked me, that would probably become the best friends that I ever had, the only friends I ever had.

There was Selphie the hyperactive little bouncing ball of energy that Riku had warned me about. She was sweat, kind hearted, and a little bit on the gossiping side but that was okay. She was a bit on the petite side, but from what I heard, she packed a powerful punch when the need arose. Oh, and she had these amazing glomping abilities of doom, which I had the unfortunate experience of experiencing first hand.

Then there was Tidus. He was a bit of an air head, but what do you expect from a blonde. Truth was, he looked a lot like me…only taller, more muscular, more out going, and liked to play some sport called Blitz-ball with Wakka.

Which leads us to Wakka. I can understand how he became friends with Tidus. He was a bit on the dense side and a bit on the perverted side. Some things flew right over his head, but surprisingly, he could grasp the concept of some of the hardest Blitz-ball tactics, 'like, whoa', as I was told by Selphie. Apparently the dense pervert was the Blitz-ball captain, 'The lucky bastard…' in the words of Tidus.

And last but not least, there was Riku. The amazing teen who introduced me to each and every one of those people during our lunch period. Well, except one. A red-head that went by the name of Kairi…

She hadn't sat with us though. She was just passing and waved at everyone before leaving to go sit two tables down. Tidus told me her name.

Yawning, I closed my eyes.

Maybe I would get back to sleep before my second day of school began. Maybe I won't look like the living dead tomorrow when I go…

ShadowedDarkness: If this chapter sucks….blame it on the fact that I have a mongo headache. Alrighty then….
