Last Sane Thought (Chapter Ten)
Rating PG-13

Muk turned around to look at Sora. He seemed so amazed that the Heartless had a life here. Muk opened his mouth certain the Sora wasn't paying attention.

"Come on. We have to go to Father." Sora heard Muk say.

He turned to look at Muk. He sighed softly walking over to his side, "Riku... whatever it is that's making you go to... Father? You don't have to. It's probably Ansem and he's probably out to hurt you."

Muk looked at him with his solid gray eyes and shook his head trying to explain. Sora only heard Heartless grabble. *If I take him to father then he'll understand!* Muk thought dropping to the floor.

Sora watched in confusion as Muk laid his hands on the ground and began patting at it. He looked as a small mound began to form. Muk's hands stopped moving but the ground did not. It kept climbing up upon itself and made a tall pile of something.

He gasped when the pile of dark... something exploded and in its place was a motorcycle. It was sleek and looked powerful. Nothing was white or sliver. Even up to the clutch was black and the tail piles didn't even show any white shine.

Muk pointed at the bike and Sora climbed on. Muk disappeared behind him and came back with two helmets.

Sora couldn't be happy as his hands caressed the sleek finished and black handlebars. "I will drive alright?"

Muk pointed up to a high tower with giant TVs packed on the top like a junk heap. Sora nodded and waited for Muk to mount. He couldn't move when Muk's arms reached around him.

He couldn't believe now that he had a chance to get Riku away from here, he was taking him to Ansem! There he would die! Or worse yet! He would be forced to kill him.

He growled as he kicked the double kickstand back and dismounted. He pulled off his helmet and Muk's as well. "God! Please Riku! Don't hate me for taking us there... I mean you wanted to go and you know I can hardly ever say no to you!"

Muk looked at him with his round gray eyes not knowing what he was after. "Riku... I think I love you." Sora panted taking Muk's face into his hands and kissed him.

Before Muk could reached he force the helmet back on and dawned his own as he pushed the bike forward of the stand into onto the street. The engine roared to life and they drove off.

The shadow in the area they had been in moved and shaped into hundreds of Heartless. The collective mutter was, "Final. Father has succeed... we must protect the one. Ansem will not have him."

Muk blushed faintly feeling the tingle of transformation come on. He watched his skin shift and hug the newly formed muscles. *They look just like his now... not longer weak will I be.* Muk thought. He felt his chest alter and he was certain there was nothing anymore that could point him to once being a Heartless.

He feeling his hair shift under his helmet he was proud. He was for certain now that he was a spitting image of Riku. That once he stood beside his Father that he would look not different from him.

But Muk's heart started to race, *I've forgotten... oh no! We must stop now! I must protect Father!"

He pulled hard on Sora shirt and forced him to stop. Sora dismounted and looked at him curiously. Muk jumped off the bike himself and pushed Sora into the nearest building. Luckily it was a hotel.

No one stopped them as Muk rushed Sora into a room. "Riku what are you doing!" He hissed as Muk pushed him on the bed in the room.

For all the darkness outside the inside of the buildings look normal and human. The Heartless were proud that they had achieved that much for their Father.

Muk tore at the string holding that stupid clothe in place on his body. It tore away and he looked up at Sora. He smiled faintly at those big blue eyes and felt a swell of love from somewhere splash around in his heart. He wrapped his arms around Sora and started to kiss him...
