"Kiane." Riku pulled the girl into the darkness.
"Riku, You're alive" She touched his face softly
"Of course I am. But this might be the last time you'll see the real me. They plan on turning me to the dark side soon" He held her hands tightly. "So I wanted to do two things while I still can."
"Ok" The red head held onto his hands tighter to prevent herself from crying.
"One is, I wanted to say..." he took a deep breath "I love you, and I always will, more than anything in the whole world, Kiane"
"I love you too, Riku" She smiled up at him.
"and the second thing I want to do is this" He leaned forward, wrapping his arms around her, their lips touching ever so slightly in a kiss. "I might not have another chance to do it" He smiled at the girl who was blushing madly, looking at the ground trying to hide it. "Here take this" He handed her half of a star shaped fruit.
"What is this?" She raised an eyebrow
"It's a Paupou fruit. They say that the person you share it with, your destinies become intertwined"
"Really?" She looked down at the fruit and couldn't help but smile. "I'm going to get your heart back, I promise"
"I believe you" Riku smiled, one arm still wrapped around her. He removed his arm and grabbed her other hand. "Our hearts are one, no matter what happens I'll always be with you. Don't ever forget that" He said as his hands slid out of hers when he walked into the dark vortex.
"Riku....Come back" Kiane said, stuffing the fruit in her pocket before leaving to go find Sora.
*~*~*~*~*
"Leon!" Sora called into the house.
"Sora! What are you doing here?" Joey asked
"Looking for Leon. Is he here?" Sora looked around the room he was in.
Who? Oh! Squall." Joey smiled. "Yeah he's around here somewhere, I take my eyes off of him for a second and he runs off. SQUALL!!" Her voice echoed through the house.
"There was no need to yell." He walked into the room "and it's Leon"
"Hey, Leon!" Sora smiled happily
"Hey, How's the search for Kairi and Riku going?" Leon looked at the girl behind Sora who was gripping her strange looking Keyblade tightly and had become quite interested in her shoes.
"It's going good" Sora looked around some more
"I heard about Riku" He now addressed his attention to the red headed girl
"Nothing happened to Riku! I know he's still out there even if they took his heart, I'm getting it back" The girl rested her Keyblade on her shoulder and stomped out of the house
*~*~*~*~*
"What's wrong?" Sora asked Kiane who was sitting on the stairs with her knees pulled close to her chest and her head in her hands.
"What if I don't find him?" She looked up and the brunette with teary eyes
"I'm sure you'll find him" Sora smiled, wrapping his arm around her shoulder.
"You're so optimistic, Sora" Kiane looked down once more, causing her hair to fall in front of her face, shielding her green eyes
Sora blinked a few times at her comment "....ok..."
"You always see the good in everything. Some things aren't that simple, Sora! Things don't always work out! You can't just keep on thinking that the whole world is a perfect place!" Kiane had tears streaming down her face. "There's a good chance that I won't find Riku!"
"No crying. you have to keep believing, Kiane" He stood up and stretched a bit
"You're right" She smiled up at the boy "I have to believe. I have to believe. Me, by myself" She tossed her Keyblade in it's sheath and began walking off
"Kiane, you're kidding right?"
"No....I shouldn't have dragged you into this"
"Riku, You're alive" She touched his face softly
"Of course I am. But this might be the last time you'll see the real me. They plan on turning me to the dark side soon" He held her hands tightly. "So I wanted to do two things while I still can."
