One Hundred Visions of the Eyes That Couldn't Lie
26 – Hunger
Riku always struggled.
He struggled with a hunger…
A hunger for power.
Sora was there and they rivaled over who was the best, but Sora always was too lighthearted to actually care.
Kairi cheered them on; she didn't even care which one did better as long as they had fun.
But for Riku, it was serious. As the necessity for energy leads to the ravenous hunger for food, so was Riku's hunger for power.
A small voice (a memory?) tickled at the back of his mind not to give in. He struggled against it for a long time.
But one day, Riku gave in.
He gave in to power.
The power to control darkness.
Darkness festering within him… that shouldn't be there.
Riku had given in and he regretted it every day of the rest of his life.
A/N: That memory would be Terra, Aqua or whoever you want it to be, really. :)
