We're halfway done! :D
~Rage~
His Nobody is angry. I can tell that much.
Riku could see it in the way he swung his Keyblades around as he destroyed those heartless. But, he wasn't sure why. Everything seemed like a big blank. And he didn't like it, not one bit.
You could say that he was angry, too. It was the kind of anger you feel when you're taking a test and you know the answers, but they just won't come out.
When Sora's Nobody reaches Memory's Skyscraper, he's so lost in thought that the only thing that makes him react was something coming at him. A keyblade, its body as black as night.
When he grips it, a memory resurfaces. It's a girl. The girl has choppy, black hair, and blue eyes. Who is she?
Riku's too lost in the memory he doesn't notice Roxas next to him while he falls down the edge. He falls, and falls, until his feet meet the concrete.
His hand goes to his head, That girl...
His thoughts are interrupted by a nearby Heartless, which he defeats easily. The hooded Nobody dives to fight the Heartless, taking out a few. They team up for a moment, Riku and Roxas. But, all Riku can think about is that girl. The more he thinks of her, the more her image fades.
He hates it. It's making him even more furious. After the fight, Sora's Nobody asks him who he was.
They share a few question and answers, but there's one sentence that gets him.
"Me, and Axel and... and her can go on having ice cream together."
"Her? You mean Xion? It's just a struggle to remember the name now, isn't it?" Riku looks at the Oblivion Keyblade. He despises the fact that it's so hard, but it's the truth.
"Either way, I can't let you go doing anything crazy."
"I have to find this Sora person, and freeing Kingdom Hearts is the only way! I want Xion back. I want my life back!"
"If you get in contact with Kingdom Hearts, the last thing you'll get is your life back. The Organization will destroy you."
"Shut up!" He yelled; the time for conversation was over. Their keyblades clashed, with Roxas winning the confrontation. When friendship is your motor, you can overpower everything, Riku knows this, yet he questions it.
"Shut up!" Roxas motions to stab Riku, but he uses it to his advantage. He reflects Roxas' attack and sends him flying, making Roxas lose his conciousness.
Riku leaves Oblivion next to him, but Roxas stands up, grabs it and starts attacking wildly.
After another confrontation, Sora's Nobody asks, "How many times do I have to beat you?"
"Alright. You've left me with no other choice." Riku stands up, and looks at the Nobody.
"What?"
"I have to release the power of my heart— the dark power I've been holding back." He reaches for his blindfold and takes it off, revealing his aquamarine eyes. "Even... If it changes me forever."
He's swallowed by the tendrils of darkness, and he focuses on the memory of that girl, of Xion, to keep him safe as he lets Ansem take over.
He defeats him with ease, and in the distance, he hears a girl sobbing, sobbing for her friend. Riku hates the cries, but he is forced to listen to them as DiZ comes to take Roxas away to the virtual Twilight Town, where he will live his final days.

Passed the word limit a couple times, so I had to delete some parts. Working with canon moments is kinda hard, but I like it.
Please, review! And thank you for reading!
