Intro to this Chapter:
Thinking too much about the future,
Stopping things that have no meaning.
The future is always before us,
Even I don't know it.
-Hikari by Hikaru Utada

The waves of Destiny Island were so calm. With their peaceful sound they splashed against the sand and the feet of someone sleeping on the shore. Sora snored softly dreaming about his old adventures. He was an easy- going boy back then, and still is. Yet behind all that was a strong heart that help save all the worlds. It was a pure heart that darkness could never touch, as long as he had his friends by his side. His friends...one was missing. When this came inside his mind that dream turned into a nightmare. Riku reaching his hand out to grab on to Sora's hand, but no matter how close Sora was he couldn't grab it. Into the darkness his friend went, until there was no sight of him. Suddenly the two hands of a Heartless grabbed him and whispered," He's with us...He won't return to you..."
A cold laughter ringed in the dark air while Sora kept yelling out for Riku. It was no use. His friend was gone forever. Riku gave his life just to save Kairi and Sora. It seemed like a foolish heroic act, though this act came straight from his heart. The heart that Riku thought he never had without those two by him. Still struggling to be let go Sora called out once more," RIKU!!!"
Jumping up from the sand his head hit someone. For the first few seconds the two held their heads, then looked at each other. There standing next to Sora was a small blond boy. It was Tidus!
"Hey! Did you have to do that?" cried out Tidus still holding his bumped head.
"S-Sorry..," Sora replied back to him.
Once Sora stood up Tidus smacked his pole on the sand ground. The impact made small particles of sand fly in every direction.
"I'm not letting you go that easily! Come on, Sora! Let's fight!"
He wasn't in the mood for a fight. After his nightmare he just wanted to be alone. Walking away from Tidus he heard him scream," Coward!" That word made a small fire of anger spring up inside him. He was no coward! Tidus knew how easily he could get his rival into a fight, but this time it wouldn't work. Ignoring the word Sora ran off to another quiet spot. The short blond boy didn't bother to chase after him instead he went to go look for his friends. Reaching the small, distant island Sora sighed in relief. Finally, a quiet area where no one could bother him. Or that's what he thought. Picking a spot out on the side he sat down, glanced at the water, then felt a huge ball hit the back of his head. The pain not only rush through his whole head, but also made him lose his balance. Now Sora's new sitting spot was in the sea. His whole hair was covered up in seaweed, his outfit all wet with salt water, and he knew there was a fish inside his pocket. Or what else could be flopping around? Sora's anger started to build up again as thoughts of revenge came to mind.
"Hey! Are ya okay?" called out Wakka.
"Wakka! It was you?" yelled out Sora at the top of his lungs.
"Uh..yeah, lil man. Sorry that ya fell in, but ya were in my way."
In his way! Talk about disresepect! When he got back up there he was going to smack Wakka and say,"You were in my way!" Tagging the fish out of his pocket he came up with a better idea. To use this fish to smack Wakka. Laughing evilly he was ready to throw, until he noticed Wakka looking strangly at the sky.
"Huh? What is it, Wakka?"
Before Sora could turn around it seemed the whole world around him turned dark. The sound of crying from Selphie could be heard, but vanished. It was so odd. Everything was quiet, dark, it started to feel cold. What was happening? Was this even suppose to happen? It all felt so familiar and strange at the same time...
"Sora..,don't be afraid. You have the power to conquer the darkness," said a voice.
The voice vanished along with the darkness. Destiny Island was back to the way it was, but everyone on the shore was gone. Instead standing by the shore was a tall man wearing a leather jacket with red wings on it. He turned and waved to Sora. It was such a shock...the man was Leon!
"Hey, it's been awhile," replied Leon. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------- Well, Leon's back. And he's not the only one.^^ In the next chapter you'll find out about the whole blackout, why Leon is on Destiny Island, and what's going on with Riku. So after vacation Ch.3 will be up!^^;; Just be patient.^^ Lol.
