Chapter 2: Rikku's Memories and The Guardians Dana and Kiayone
As soon as the wave hit, there was no turning back for the
three teens. Davis and Ken opened their eyes and noticed that they were
underwater.
Then a small figure appeared. Davis instantly recongized the
figure as eight year old Rikku, but he got confused. Why was she there
when the older Rikku was beside him?
" This is one of my childhood flashbacks. I usually get them
every once in a while because I always thought of home and my friends.
Then it started. My memories started to haunt me," she said, her voice
clear as crystal in the water. She tapped the water around her and the
three teens found themselves in a breathable air bubble.
" Why do your memories haunt you?" Ken asked, eyeing the small
ghostly figure.
" I was a open-minded person, never afraid to take a challenge,
and also played the voice of reason. However, I became afraid that day
I disappeared six years ago. The thought of never seeing my home and
friends again forever lingered in my mind, heart, and soul. Slowly, I
closed up my mind. Those memories became my fate. But then, I found
a way back home today. I jumped in the portal and decided to wait for
you. Then you came. I was happy again and there, slowly, I opened up
my mind and heart. Then this happens again. I knew it was too good to
be true..." Rikku explained.
" What do you mean it was too good to be true?" Davis asked.
" When I reached the other world, the high authorities there
put me under supervision of two 'legendary guardians.' They were trying
to find a missing legendary guardian because the Keyblade was left
behind. Then they found out that I was that missing legendary guardian.
They gave me the Keyblade and told me to never leave the world. I
thought this was going to be a short trip. I was gone from my world
for six years. Six years of not seeing you and my friends."
All three teens eyed the small Rikku as she sunk deeper and
deeper into the darkness. Then a bright light glowed brightly. Before
anyone could react, all three teens were knocked out.
*~*~*~*
" Rikku? Rikku, are you okay?"
Rikku slowly woke up to find herself on the floor of a small
house. Davis and Ken were nowhere in sight.
" Hey, are you alright, Rikku?"
She turned to face two girls, one her age, the other a fifteen
year old.
" Rikku, you had us scared for a moment there. We thought we
lost the legendary guardian for sure!" the younger one yelped.
" Dana? Kiayone? Why are you here? Where are my other friends?
Please tell me where they are!" Rikku asked, worried about the two guys
who came with her.
" Rikku...we found them, but the high authorities told us to
right away bring them to the office. Can't be too safe if those two
were with the Heartless." Kiayone said with a serious tone.
" You did what?! Those guys with me are NOT Heartless spies!
Whatcha think I went to the real world for?!"
" You mean that those two were..."
" The other guardians you were talking about the other day?
Oops, we done it...again!" Dana replied.
" Take me to the office!" Rikku yelled, a little angry.
" But-but-but the high legendary guardian told us not to!"
Rikku was turning red, not blushing red, not rose red, it was
a very very enraged red.
" Uh, Dana, I think it's better if we do go to the office or
else, Rikku's gonna strangle someone. She's that upset!" Kiayone said
while backing away. It was best to follow Rikku when she got angry or
else, you would be in a chokehold or in a anklelock until you agreed.
With that said, the three teenage girls headed to the main
part of town: The Temple of the Legendary Guardians, where each and
every guardian, legendary or not, got their missions.
*~*~*~*~
After a ten minute walk (or in Rikku's case, a two minute run),
they reached the office.
" Okay, nobody move!" Rikku said. There was no one in sight.
" I bet all the legendary guardians are questioning both of the
guys right now. They're really serious!" Dana said after scanning the
area for guardians and people alike.
" Come on, they got to be in here somewhere!"
Rikku and her friends split up to search more of the area to
find anyone, but especially Davis and Ken.
*~*~*~*~
Rikku came across two huge doors leading somewhere while she
was searching the area. She opened them, poked her head in...
...and a hand got her shirt collar. Rikku screamed.
" Let me go! You creepy person!" she screamed.
Instead, she was pulled in and the door slammed shut.
" Well, well, well. Why, isn't it little Rikku Mikima, actually
scared of being hurt?" a girl's voice said, whining when she got to
Rikku's name. Rikku glared at the source of the voice.
" You..." she said sourly. She didn't like the person.
" Yes, it's me, Cassidy Ronina. You remember me."
" I sure do!" Rikku yelled, glaring a death glare at the girl.
" Now, where are my friends?!"
" You mean the indigo haired guy and goggle guy? They're YOUR
friends?" Cassidy muffled a laugh. " I always thought Dana and Kiayone
were your friends! Ha ha ha! That's a laugh!"
Rikku was looking death daggers at Cassidy. She was absolutely
getting really fed up with this girl and she was too busy trying to
find Davis and Ken to actually mess with Cassidy at the moment.
" Excuse me, I'm trying to find those boys-"
" Whoa, whoa, whoa! I'M the high legendary guardian here now!
No, you cannot take the boys with you because you don't need any more
guardians under your wing! And also that your mother is the source of
the Heartless, so I don't trust you!"
That did it. Rikku was ready to rock and roll and beat the
living daylights out of Cassidy for saying that. That's when Dana came
in and stopped the fighting.
" Kiayone's found your friends!" she said excitely, then turned
to Cassidy. " Oh, hi, Cassidy."
" Good day, Guardian Dana. I'm just talking to your little
guardian friends here about... WHAT?! Guardian Kiayone found them and
actually released them?!" Cassidy yelled in shock.
" Those are the guardians Rikku had talked about in the last
guardian meeting we had. How dare you define the two as two Heartless
spies!" Dana replied.
At that moment, Kiayone came in, Davis and Ken following right
behind her.
" Are you guys alright? Did Cassidy hurt you two?" Rikku asked
when she saw the two behind Kiayone.
" Well, not really, she just called me gogglebrain." Davis
replied. Rikku glared at Cassidy again. She was very mad.
" Well, he wears those goggles on his head!" Cassidy replied.
" He shouldn't in the first place!"
That did it again. Rikku was steaming mad. She faced Cassidy,
looking death daggers at her and yelled straight at her, " That's his
style of wearing goggles! Like me wearing mine around my neck! You
don't make fun of Dana or Kiayone, but you always make fun of me!"
" That's because you're a newbie in the guardian business."
Cassidy sighed. Rikku was very very steaming mad. She had her veins
sticking out of her neck in anger. All four teens who knew Rikku very
well stepped back a little.
" Just shut up, Cassidy! Legendary guardian or not, you are
nothing but a spoiled brat!" Rikku screamed. She stormed out of the
room with everyone but Cassidy.
" Oh, Rikku, I wish you wouldn't have done that because now
that my father's passed on, I can open the Heartless' door and release
the power of your mother... hehehe." She evilly laughed.
*~*~*~*~*
Next Time In Digimon Hearts...
Uh-oh, Cassidy's up to something now! Can Rikku and her friends
figure it out before the door of the Heartless is opened? Will Rikku
ever get over her anger? Is Cassidy really behind Rikku's anger or is
it something else?
