"Great...." She looked around at the tons of heartless that had just came out of nowhere, so she couldn't move anywhere. "How did Leon even get into his house?" She smirked as her Keyblade materialized in her hand "Looks like I'm just gonna have to take care of you guys" She lunged forward and with one quick swipe about half of the heartless had disappeared. "That was easy" She began slicing and slashing at the rest of the heartless that were around, until eventually they were all gone. "Much easier than I had thought." She smiled and took a few steps, but stopped when she felt the ground begin to shake "What the...?" She looked around and up into the sky as a huge Heartless landed right in the huge open space. "Great..." She took a few steps back and poked her head through the door. "Sora? a little help here?" She watched as the boy walked into the door and stood in amazement at the huge heartless. "Holy..." He looked over the huge heartless. "Exactly what I said." She looked over at Sora "So....I say we run into Leon's house for some help." "My thoughts exactly" The two ran into Leon's house, shutting the door quickly as the go in. "Leon? You in here?" Kiane looked around the house, walking around a little. "What are you doing?" He looked at the girl who seemed to be snooping around "What?! Leon, you scared the crap outta me!" She took a deep breath "Did you happen to see what's out there?" "No...What is it?" Joey walked out from another room "It's some huge heartless, you see at first it was just a bunch of little heartless so I was kinda like 'oh this shouldn't be too hard' but once I killed all of those this huge heartless came out of nowhere!" "Is this some kind of joke?" Leon leaned against the wall. "AM I LAUGHING?!?!" She yelled at him. "NO IT'S NOT A JOKE!!" she sighed heavily. "But, anyway...I dunno what we are supposed to do or how in the heck we are going to kill this thing." She sat down on the floor. "Any ideas?" she looked up at the two. ".....Riku..." Sora whispered to himself. Kiane looked over at the boy quickly at the sound of her lovers name. "What about him?" "We need Riku, he can probably control this thing so he can tell us how to kill it" Sora smiled, but his smile quickly changed when he saw Kiane trying to fight off the tears. "....oh....Kiane, I'm sorry" "No...It's not your fault, I just don't want to accept the fact that he can control those things, cause that'll mean he has no heart and without a heart I don't think he could feel anything towards anybody...including me" she looked up at Sora with teary eyes "Plus, it isn't that easy to get a hold of him. I don't-" she sniffed "-I don't know how, he just pops up when ever he pleases." She now sighed "Half the time I don't know if he's actually there or if I'm just imagining him."
"........" Leon looked at the ground, shaking his head.
"Yeah.....I'm hopeless, aren't I?" Kiane turned her focus back to the ground, trying to hide the tears that were falling down her cheeks.
"You're not hopeless, Kiane." Sora smiled happily, wrapping an arm around the girl. "You just really care for Riku...and he really cares for you too."
"How are you so sure, Sora?" Kiane looked up at the brown haired boy who flashed her a reassuring smile.
"Trust me...He does" Sora stretched "I'm sure he'll be able to tell that he's needed and he'll be here before we know it"
"Yeah, He'll come when he is ready...." Kiane smiled and bowed her head "Lets move on then" She turned around and made her way out of the door.
"Take care of her, Sora" Leon put a hand on the boys shoulder. "She's hurt...You and I both know it" Leon tried to smile as best he could, but it ended up looking like a smirk
"I will" Sora hurried out of the house after Kiane.

Kiane hummed to herself as she walked along the road, she had decided not to wait for Sora and that she needed to do some thinking.
"So....did ya miss me?" Riku stood a few feet ahead of the girl.
".......Riku......" The girl whispered to herself, as if she didn't believe that he was actually standing there.
"Of course it's me....who else would it be?" Riku smirked.
"Riku!" She ran up to him, wrapping her arms around his neck practically knocking him off of his feet "It really is you, I knew you would come back, I just knew you would."
"Yup. I finally got away from Malefecent and her crew. She had found some new recruits so she let me go." Riku caught his balanced and held up the girl.
"Really? Are you serious? That's great! It'll be just like old times! Just me and you!" Kiane hugged the boy, she had never been more happy in her entire life.
"Of course I'm serious!" He laughed and put the girl back on the ground
"Sora will be so happy! C'mon lets go get him" She grabbed his hand and raced off in the opposite way she had came from.
"Kiane, slow down we don't have to hurry. I'm sure Sora will still be there." He laughed again.
