A/n: Today we have special guests. Visiting today is Riku and Sora! Yay!

Riku: First of all, you forced us hear.

Sora: Yeah and where are the nachos?

Me: There are no nachos!

Riku: Whatever, anyway, she does not own Kingdom Hearts or anything relating to it. Thank god.

Sora: NACHOS! NACHOS! (Rummages through everything to find nachos).


Chapter 6Dark Angels and Blood-Stained Sickos

Riku opened the door and walked into Ren's room. It was a chamber filled with plants and some benches. There was a bed and a dresser. There were a few windows, but they were very high up Sora was sitting down on a bench.

"Did you ask her out or something?" Riku narrowed his eyes a bit. "No. Where's Ren?"

"She went to her garden to get some healing herbs or something. So, what did you do?" Riku shrugged. "Just told her that I want to talk to her later."

"Ohhhh, I knew it. So, what are you gonna talk to her about?"

"I'm not telling you. Besides, you would tell everyone in the whole damn world."

Sora leaned back in the bench and put his hands behind his head. "Whatever. I'll find out. You'll see…"

Then there were gunshots and Sora was frozen after it happened. A guy wearing dark clothes and some dried blood on a spear he was holding on his back. He

laughed and was holding two guns in his hands.

"Knock knock. So, you must be the new guys. Tch, don't look like much help." Sora got up and was angry. "WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT FOR?" The guy put his guns away and said nothing. Then, he said, "I do that to every new person, depending on my mood towards them."

He walked to Riku and took his hand out. There were a few blood stains on it and Riku thought a shiver went down his spine. "Aren't you gonna shake?" They shook hands and the guy walked out.

"Who the hell was that?" Riku asked still looking at the doorway. Ren came back in from the garden and was holding some herbs. She looked around and found some bullet holes on the ground.

"Ugh, great, Phoenix should start fixing the floor now 'cause it's getting ridiculous." Sora walked to her. "That's his name?"

"Yeah. He is one of the older people who live here, besides me and some others." Riku sat down on the bench, "How old are you?"

"I'm 19, Phoenix is 21. He has to stop acting…like that." Riku found a moth and it landed on the back of his hand. "So what's the deal with him?"

Ren was hesitant and sighed. "His parents were murdered when he was a kid. He has a scar on his face from the attack. As for his big brother, Serif…he disappeared."

There was silence and Ren cheered up a bit. "Anyway, you guys have to get patched up." She took out some wet bandages and grounded the herbs and put them on the bandages. She wrapped them around Sora and Riku's arm and told them to wait a minute to take them off.


"Now you can." They removed the bandages and their arms had no sign of small burns or anything. Sora stretched out his arm and grinned. "Forget the hospital, this kicks ass. Thanks Ren."

"You're welcome." Sora left and Riku was about to leave when Ren told him to wait. "Please be careful around Phoenix, and try not to be alone when he's around."

Riku walked back in the entrance hall and found Sora, Sole, and Luna talking to Leon, Yuffie, Cid, Cloud, and young woman with long brown hair. Yuffie saw him and waved. "Hey, you are alright!"

"How did you get here?"

Leon looked at Riku. "Something happened back at Hollow Bastion and we were able to escape here. We found one of the people who live here and, well here we are. We were filled in about everything from Sora."

Yuffie grinned. "And we mean everything." Oh god, not again, Riku thought.

Sora looked at the woman with them. "Who are you?"

"Tifa. I'm a friend of Cloud's." Sora looked around and asked her, "Where's Aerith?"

Cloud bolted out of the building as soon as overheard the question. Cid stroked his chin, "Well, something happened. We looked all over for her, but we couldn't find her. Cloud says that Sephiroth killed her. But there is no sign of it."

"You called?" Sephiroth appeared. Everyone backed away and is ready to fight. "Not now. We don't have time for this."

Sora lowered his keyblade and asked, "Since when is it 'we'? What did you do to Aerith?"

"She's fine. More than that, anyway. Still can't believe that girl was chosen for that kind of job."

Yuffie was ready to throw her shuriken at Sephiroth. "What are you talking about?"

"You'll find out soon enough. Also, keyblade wielder, you and the rest of these people should start looking for that girl of yours."

"How do you-"

"I know what goes on around here. And for anyone with any ideas, I'm not saying that I'm helping you."

"Yer just tellin' us this stuff to save yer own ass?" Cid said spitting out his toothpick.

"Yes and no. I don't like having to compete with a teenager for power. I want her out of the way."

Cloud busted in, breaking the doors and charged at Sephiroth. "SON OF A BITCH!" But Sephiroth blocked the attack and disappeared.

"Damn it, he won't get away with it, I swear it." Tifa went to him. "Cloud, he didn't do anything to her. We don't even know what happened." Cloud said nothing and walked away from them.

Luna walked to the doors and sighed. "Why does everyone break stuff in the castle?" Sole skipped to her and leaned her elbow on Luna's shoulder. "Maybe it because they keep thinking we're rich."

Yuffie and Sora looked confused. "Aren't you rich?" They said it at the same time.

Riku said under his breath. "Great, I bet things are going to be very quiet now," he said with sarcasm. "Luna, can we go outside."

"Sure. Follow me." Sora, Sole, and Yuffie looked at each other and grinned as they left. Cid started to look at the machines in the hall and Leon and Cloud just stood there. Cloud asked Leon, "Wanna play cards?"

Leon shrugged. "Sure, but be ready for anything weird, by that, I mean anything related to what those three stooges are up to." Cloud found Ken and Ren follow the trio. Cloud sighed, "Better make that five. Cid, can you bring the drinks. We're playing cards."
