About a week later, the moomba reappeared and gestured for us to follow him. After a couple quick scratches and licks, that is. Maleficent had summoned us, and she gave us new stuff and I got magic. She gave Riku the power to control Heartless as well. We each got a keyblade, and a uniform, which we were to wear when we were out. We could transport in between worlds, and the food she was giving us was supposed to be turning us evil. I learned that later. But I guess Riku's and my relationship was interfering with that. We weren't actually a couple, but we weren't exactly friends either. I know, it's complicated. We just messed around, bickered, and joked with each other a lot. We went out to find Sora one night, and I had never seen the types of Heartless that we encountered. I meeped and clutched Riku's arm. " 'Ts alright." I heard him whisper. "Stay close. Don't be afraid. You'll be fine with me." He was smiling at me, and I found peace in his eyes. We finally found Sora, and he took one look at out black spandex outfits and raised his Keyblade. I slid behind Riku a little more, and Sora, confused, asked, "What are you two, evil or something?" Riku walked closer and replied, "We're supposed to be. Don't tell Maleficent we aren't, or she'll kill us all. So, sorry, but we have to give you a hard time." Sora nodded, and got the hint. "Heh, you and your little $!u+ came to try to fight me, huh? Well, bring it on." I took no offence, as I knew what he was doing. He wiggled his butt and Riku charged him. It was an interesting fight, and Riku stopped before anyone got seriously hurt. I had teleported to a nearby cloud, and sat on it. (A.N. Yes, I can sit on clouds. I am the all-powerful Mistress of the Night! MWAHAHA!! ~Is hit by random object~ ow.) Riku teleported away, and found me. I looked straight ahead, at nothing in particular, and he waved his hand in front of my face when he noticed. "Hellooooo." I was deep in thought and I wasn't seeing anything. ~If we're supposed to be evil, how come. Why aren't.~ I snapped back to reality and Riku was peering at my face. "You ok?" he asked worriedly. I nodded. "Yeah, fine." "Ok." he murmured. I went back to thinking, and he was staring at me. I didn't notice, but he was staring at me. When I returned back to reality, he was smiling serenely and watching my hair in the wind. I looked at him, and his gaze shifted from my hair to my eyes. I watched him watching me, but I wasn't the least bit uncomfortable. I had no clue why. If another guy were looking at me like that I would've slapped him. Any other guy. His gaze then lowered to my lips. He lifted his hand a bit, hesitated, and put it back down on his lap, turning his eyes away from my face. "Something the matter?" I said softly. He said not a word but nodded. "What is it?" I said in a sweet voice. This time he shook his head. His hands had clenched into fists, and he was fighting his own emotions. "You can tell me, Riku." He shook his head more violently this time. A sad look appeared on my face and I asked "Why not?" His aqua eyes darted to meet mine, and he sighed. "It's nothing you need to know about, Tuni." "So? I want to know." I trailed off and huffed a little. "I'm telling you, it's nothing you need to concern yourself over." "Please- " "NO!" I shrunk back a little and looked away. "Alright. if you don't want to tell me I won't tell you what I was thinking about either." Being the curious little brat that he was, this got his attention. "What were you thinking about?" He asked. A grin appeared on my face. I teased him. "It's nothing you need to concern yourself over." "Hey, now-" "Tell me yours first." "NO!" "Well, then I'm not going to tell you mine." I crossed my arms and pouted. It was silent to my right, and I looked at him. He was smiling. "You know, you're really cute when you pout." I reddened, and he placed his hand on mine. My whole body tightened up, and I felt a rush go through my veins. He was moving closer to me, until I could feel his breath on my face. A huge ball of fire knocked him off the cloud at that very moment. I heard him cussing as he fell, and he hovered back up to the cloud. His shirt was fried, and a big burning hole was now where the heartless symbol should have been. I laughed a little and heard laughter from below. Donald must have fired it off to annoy us. Riku's skin was singed, but not too bad. I healed it easily, and even repaired his shirt. Although I wouldn't have minded a large hole in the fabric over his chest. He was angry. Fuming, even. "Alright, We're leaving." He grabbed my wrist and teleported us back to the castle.
