Rating PG-13

Ruki finally found Ansem. Sora lay wrapped in a sheet on a familiar dais. The room was dark and a Heartless doctor was poking and jabbing at the sleeping Sora.

"What are you doing to do to him?" Riku asked walking up to Sora. He placed his cold hand on that warm chest. Sora shifted in his sleep.

"I'll do to him what I did to you." Ansem said shrugging off his cape. A small Heartless appeared and ran off with it.

"He won't survive! He's not of the Heartless Royal line! It will kill him!" Riku hissed gather Sora up into his arms.

Ansem nodded, "Yes and you think that I really care is funny."

Riku frowned turning to sit on the dais with Sora cuddled like a baby in his arms. He concentrated and saw threw his children eyes. His children that had been spawned by his body were his to command. Instantly Riku's children surrounded the Heartless Doctor and Ansem on his command.

"Follow us and die. Stay here and die. You don't have much of a choice Ansem." Riku said standing up with Sora in his arms.

"How do you think you could kill me?!" Ansem laughed heartily. He looked around at Riku's children. They number many in the first stand half in the second stage and only a fourth of them were in their third stage of life.

"Your children won't get father then that! No one can love a Heartless. No one will give up anything for those creatures! No one has and you will never have the son you say that could kill me." Ansem smirked.

Riku turned around his eyes still closed watching Ansem through is children. "I give my son body. My lover gave him life. He will take your Heartless and free them. That's all I have to say."

Ansem growl angrily as he gathered his dark energy to kill the Keyblade bearer and the Prince of the Heartless. Just as the electric darkness shot out a wall of Heartless formed in front of Riku and when the dead creature tumbled apart he was gone.

Ansem knew what he had to do. His perfect tanned face creased with a frown, "If you see Riku's 'son' kill him or he will have your Father's heart..." Ansem commanded his own Heartless.

"Hello Father." Riku said from behind him. Ansem turned glaring hole into his son.

"Where is your foolish lover? You think you can hide him from me? I will have him again and this time I won't wait to kill him." Ansem glare snatching up Sora's forgotten Keyblade from the dais.

Riku nodded walking straight up to Ansem. He hugged Ansem quietly for a moment confusing him. "Get off me you stupid fool!" He shouted hitting Riku across the face.

Riku went to floor blood trickling form his mouth. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you..." He said standing up again face to face with Ansem.

Both dress clad in black and wearing masked of stone. Feature unmoving waiting for the other to speak.

Riku finally finished his sentence, "Father... Grandfather." Ansem hissed swinging to strike Riku's mirror creation.

Ansem's Heartless burst into the room in puffs of smoke. Riku pulled his hand from Ansem's chest and calmly said, "Go relax kids. Everything's okay."

Riku let his eyes fade to void black and sat calmly on the dais looking at the dead body of his Father's Father. A small innocence creature who still had it Heart, that had not been spoiled by hate and death hopped on to the dais.

"Hello little one. You are my first real child. All the others are his. You are mine. I will love you all the same but you will be my Chosen one. Do you want to me your Grandfather?" Muk smiled to the Heartless baby. It gave a smile and nodded.
