A/N: Hi! Thanx to everyone who reviewed! Here are a few things I want to
clarify before I began today:
Ages Here are the ages in the fic:
Riku, Nikki, Nagisa (OC later in the story): 17
Sora, Kairi: 16
Leon: 27
Aerith: 24
Yuffie: 18
Story Changes/ Plans
This will be a two-part story this being the first half. The second half in entitled "There lies a New Future". The two put together say "At the End of the Stars.. There Lies a New Future." I also will be posting 3 preview chapters of the sequel on this story.
3.) Battles/ Fight Sequences
I will not be writing them, though they will be in this story, but mostly the most action will be in the sequel. My friend and fav author, Brettdawg2005, will be writing them for this story.
Um.that's it for now. I might add more tho.

At The End Of The Stars .. By: Witch Baby
Chapter 3: Nikki: My Crazy, Fucked Up Memories ...
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The next week was hectic. Cid made us drag his 2-ton crate of gummi parts to Gepehetto's shop, Leon left me and Aerith to take care of the shop which was now over run by travelers and now, Kairi wanted us to help look for her boyfriend.
"Please, oh please, oh please!" the red haired girl named Kairi begged. "No." I bluntly said as I leaned crossed armed against the wall outside of the Accessory Shop. It was a chilly autumn evening as Riku, Kairi and I stood outside as Leon closed the shop. "But why not?" she asked with disappointment in her voice. "Because it's a stupid idea," I said "We'd be risking our lives and our worlds for this kid if we did"
She lowered her head. She'd obviously wanted to find this Sora kid very badly. Leon walked over to me and put a hand on my shoulder. "C'mon Nikki. Sora's a good kid and he couldn't have gone too far. Besides, you haven't been to another world in about two years!" I looked at him with a cross face. Why would he of all people want to another world? Especially after he lost his ...
"Just help her." Riku said, standing on the steps overlooking the center square. "Maybe it'll make her shut up. "Kairi turned to him and pouted. "Riku, just because Sora's the Keyblade master instead of you and because he has a very pretty girlfriend while you have no on is no reason to just abandon him in wherever the heck he is!" she scolded. Riku looked down in embarrassment. I glared at Kairi and said, "Kairi, maybe if you weren't so mean and self-centered I would probably help you. But I definitely wont help you if you suddenly just bite the heads off people that have done nothing to you." She returned my glare and scowled at me. She then stuck her nose in the air and walked away, I watched her as she did.
"Thanks," A quiet, nearly inaudible murmur came from Riku. I whipped my head around to face him. "Although, you should've done that." He said quietly once more. "Why not?" I asked, very curious about the situation at hand "Am I just going to stand here and let her talk to people like that? Like they're lower than her?" He remained silent. "I grew up with that kind of attitude in my family and I if I didn't take it then, why the hell should I take it now?" He looked up and met my gaze. Though, he now seemed calm and peaceful, his eyes said otherwise. They reflected anger and jealousy towards me as if to tell me about this Sora person. "Kairi will not rest until she sees Sora again ... " He mumbled, still staring into my eyes. "She will stop at nothing to see him. Shes lost him once and shes not about to lose him again. Kairi and Sora are always like that; always looking out for each other, helping each other out, caring for one another, and always, always forgetting about me." He looked at the ground and clenched his fists. "So, I take it Sora and Kairi are an item?" I asked as I cocked my head to the side to try to see his eyes once more.
Slowly, his head raised and his eyes looked up at me. I gasped slightly. His eyes, that were once so peaceful and tranquil, were now filled with an evil look that brought dark memories to my mind. "I guess you could say that," he started "He risked his life for her and now she will risked hers for his." He then slowly turned and walked towards the Third District. It took me awhile to realize that I was alone, because I had not heard Leon's boots stomping along the ground to the Second District. Once again, I was alone.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Later that evening, I lie in my bed in the Blue room of the hotel that had been unoccupied for some days now. I stared up at the ceiling and thought for a moment. Memories of when I was a little girl at Star's Point, my world came into my mind. Scary memories of fighting and yelling and .. The Chaos. But most of all I remember the pain. The pain of the neglect of the words "I love you" in my family. No one said it. At least, to me. The pain of the hand print left by the cold-hearted slap of my father on my face. The pain of the years that went by after my mother's suicide. The pain of the Self-Mutilation I went through. My life was hell. I now lived here in Traverse Town with Leon, my so-called 'brother.' Of course, he's not my REAL brother. My Brother probably still lives at Star's Point. I was only called Leon's little sister mostly because I acted so much like him; cold, hard stares, emotionless faces, distant personality and the pain of losing some many that you cared about.
Basically, I was living a lie. Living in a world that I cannot truly call my own. Role-playing as someone else's sister. Running away from my harsh and deathly reality. When I went through my life as a child, there must have been something that I did to make my life so fucked up right now. I closed my eyes. I wished to drift off into sleep but was soon greeted by a flash of my mother in my mind and flung my eyes open. I want to die. I want to be erased from this world like the mistake I was. But I did not want to die like my mother did. I did not want to be found hanging from the ceiling of a hospital room. I wanted to die a slow, painfully death that would recap all of the pain that I had felt in my life. I want to be found in bed with deep cuts in my wrists and a small smile on my face. But the cold, hard slap of reality woke me from my daydream. It hit me. No matter how hard I try I will never be able to die by myself. I was slowly losing interest in doing that and I just wanted to go home, back to the metropolis from which I came from. I stared up once more at the ceiling and quietly mumbled, "Another unfamiliar ceiling ... "
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
That didn't take very long to type up, maybe 15 min at the most and it turned out ok. Since I dun have a proof reader as of the moment, that are a lot of mistakes in here. Also, Neon Genesis Evangelion fans will be surprised that I used Shinji's infamous "Unfamiliar Ceiling" line! A lot of the story, part I & II, will be based on Evangelion, especially End of Evangelion since it is my fav anime ever! Stay Tuned!
