Koi Genso (Love Illusion)
Part 4 Adventure Begins
Sora's POV
I awoke when a dog pounced onto me and Mai was next to me unconscious. I shook her and she mumbled herself awake.
"Sora thank god we're still together" she hugged me. That's when I realized we weren't home anymore.
"Where are we?" I asked looking around.
"A new world duh just don't know where though and I highly doubt the others are here." she also looked around.
"What! What about Riku. Kairi and Kurai what happened to them." I shouted grabbing Mai by her shoulders
"Calm down Sora everyone probably got split up I'm sure they're fine Riku and Kurai are both tough" she patted my arm as I released her.
"I guess" I sighed and a frown appeared on my face.
"We gotta explore and see if we find anything" she walked away
I clutched my hand and felt a paper in it and realized it was the paper Kurai slipped into my hand before she and Riku disappeared. I opened it and realized it was a letter addressed to me and Mai.
Dear Sora and Mai,
If you're reading this without me I have gone to the dark side. I'm sorry Mai, I have to watch Riku and keep him with me as long as possible. Sora take care of the keyblade and Mai, I don't think I might survive this but I will put everyone to good use until we meet again.
Sincerely, Kurai
P.S. I believe we might be enemies, I'm sorry.
"Oh Kurai I really do hope we stay friends" Mai sighed looking up to the sky. "Sora let's go" she grabbed my hand tightly; I closed my hand around hers.
Kurai's POV
I woke up in a room and looked around, Riku walks through the door and I tackle him down.
"Riku where are we how did we get here?" I asked tilting my head.
"Maleficent calls this place Hollow Bastion I wonder where Sora and the others ended up"
"Sora? Who's he" I tilted my head to the other side.
"My best friend don't you remember him or Destiny Islands?"He pushed me off.
"I'm your best friend and there was an island we lived close to but never went there to play." I said picking myself off the floor.
"How long have you known me?" he asked.
"I say almost 10 years now" I said casually looking at the beds.
"But I've only known you for like three days" He looked at me. I turned back to face him.
"Riku it's been like three years since I've known you I say ten since I met you when I was 5 but then had to move and then I came back." I looked at his confused face. "did I do something wrong" I approached him and hugged him and gave his forehead a kiss he instantly became red. "oh come on Riku we always do that to make the other better what's wrong with you"
"Nothing lets go Maleficent said to go to a room to talk to her she wants us to work for her" he walked out of the room.
"Sure whatever" I followed Riku to the room where Maleficent explained our mission.
Riku's POV
I didn't know her before two days ago so why does she say three years it makes no sense I was only half listening to Maleficent we were supposed to go get Alice without being noticed she told us to use dark portals she said we could practice before doing the mission.
"This is easy" Kurai got the hang of it by the third try while I was having trouble, I couldn't keep the portal open for long. "need help" she asked. I nodded she stood behind me and grabbed my arms. "open your heart and let the power flow through you" I closed my eyes then opened them to see the portal still in contact. "there we go let's go to our room" I saw her wobble as she held the wall for support.
"Are you okay?" I walked toward her to catch her if she fell.
"I think I let more power in than necessary" she fell to the ground I rushed to her side picked her up. She took hold of my shirt as I tried to lay her down. I lay down with her and brought her close and hugged her like she did a few nights ago.
"Riku" I opened my eyes to see the girl.
"What are you doing here" I asked wary.
"I can only talk for a bit I expected you wanted answers." I nodded. "she knows Sora and the island I just sealed that part of her mind I did it because the light that is emanated from the people and the others might have erased me completely although too much dark power can put a strain on her body. She still has light power and that is from her younger age and she says she knows you longer than you do because I made memories that are what she actually wants as a childhood you as her best friend and I am Yuumei."
"So I just have to get to know her?" I asked
"And protect her there is an evil force that wants her power she trusts you the most now it's time for sleep"
I woke up instead staring at Kurai. "love you Riku" I heard her mutter "always have" her face turned sour then a tear slid down her cheek I wiped it away and saw her stir. "morning Riku" she rubbed the sleep out of her eyes. "stop staring do I have something on my face."
"Kurai do you like me?" she jumped out of the bed and stood up.
"What where would you get that idea we're just friends" she said but her face was red. She fished through her pockets and found something and was smiling at it.
"What is it" I stood up walking toward her.
"Nothing" she clutched it to her chest. I tackled her and pinned her hands she squirmed and tried to get free I reached for the wallet as she was trying to get it under her I turned it around and was surprised it was a picture of Kurai Sora and me when we were five at the beach. I turned back to see Kurai looking to the side I leaned in.
"Is this all you're embarrassed about it's just a picture and the other boy is Sora" she turned to face me
"You could've asked nicely" her face was closer to mine and she brought her face closer "you suck Riku"
I leaned in "oh do I" my lips touched hers as I talked and I thought I saw them quiver.
"Yes you do big time" she tried to head butt me but it resulted in our lips to connect. She pulled back trying to get out from under me. "move Riku" she tried pushing me off. I saw something when our lips connected her memories of us playing together growing up together and going to school. I brought my lips down to hers again this time licking her bottom lip asking for entrance she gasps and I plunge right into her mouth as she moans I feel the vibration throughout my whole body I pull away get off her and bring her in for a hug.
"I'm so sorry" I whisper it into her ear.
"For what" she is breathing hard.
"For not remembering you I'm so sorry" I hug her tighter.
"It's alright I was gone for 3 years, I'm not surprised you didn't remember" she pulled away, tucking her hair behind her ear; she sat down on the bed. "we should plan what to do for our little mission Maleficent wants us to do' she smiled. 6 hours later Kurai was on her bed again this time lying down. "we should get some rest we have the mission the next day after tomorrow" I walked toward her bed but she stopped me. "in our own beds we need space if you still want to get to know me we can do that tomorrow." I saw her close her eyes and start to snore softly, I went to my own bed and went to sleep.
The mission went well except for one thing Kurai was seen by Mai and Sora and well I had to bring her back by force.
"I wanted to meet Sora" she whined
"Maleficent said not to interact with anyone" I scolded her.
"But he looked so adorable when he saw you and that girl she wanted to take me why" I remembered how Mai was flabbergasted when Kurai showed no sign of knowing her before and said that she would come for Kurai soon.
"adorable?" I twitched
"I've only met him I don't know how he acts so stop overreacting" she patted my head
"That girl is Mai and well she's new in town and I don't think you got a chance to meet her" I lied I wanted Kurai to stay with me if she went with Sora would adorable turn to hot.
"I see it feels like I know her but I've never met her" she was holding her head. "it's weird I see her and me when we were young but that can't be right you were my only friend well besides Sora" she picked up a book and flipped through the pages she dropped it 5 seconds later.
"What's wrong" I grabbed her shoulder for support, her eyes dulled to a gray color.
"Sora" she sounded sad and was reaching out.
"Kurai snap out of it" I stood in front of her and pulled her in for a hug. I felt her chin on my shoulder and her hands wrap around me.
"Riku I want Sora…" she paused I felt her hands clutching my shirt she leaned into my ear. "…dead"
"What?" I asked. "you're confused Sora didn't do anything"
She pushed me away. "you don't understand he's never been tainted with darkness" she sat on her bed and pointed clutched her head "I don't remember any of the images flashing through my mind and yet it feels familiar" she looked at me tears welling up. "tell me the truth are we friends or not."
"We are friends but I've only known you for about a week and Sora's my best friend" I answered her and saw a few tears fall.
"Stop it just stop it no more I don't know what to believe the memories that I have with you or the images I'm so confused" she sobbed I walked over and kissed her head. "are these feelings real or not?" I heard her mutter. I laid her down gave her a plushie and saw her start to nod off I tucked her in and went out into the hall.
"These feelings they are real aren't they" I held the spot where my heart was.
A.N.: I'm hoping to update by next week Monday
