WARNING: Shouenen ai, Riku x Sora. Yeah. You don't like it, tough.
Authoress's Notes: Oh my God! The world is coming to an end. It isn't a Yu Yu Hakusho ficcie. I am scared and must die.
*dies* Swissy says hi, he'll see you at the end. And threaten you. Watch, he'll threaten you with a spoon. He'll do it.
You just watch. And in this ficcie, there will be spoilers, and in this story, Riku stepped through the door.
:::Paopu Fruit:::
Chapter One
He was surprised at first, when he was thrown to. Catching the fruit, he heard laughing, from one voice. Looking up,
he saw Riku, who began to light-heartedly tease him.
He was more surprised when Riku, the next day, raced him to share a paopu with Kairi. Sora had raced hard, determined
to win so that Riku couldn't be tied to Kairi for life. Sora wanted Riku to be tied to him for life. And so, he tried
to win the race. Riku was the one that was surprised when Sora won.
Then Riku told him it was just a joke. Sora was relieved.
Then when Kairi wanted just the two of them to go, he was disgusted. How could she even think of somehting like that?
He had known Riku far longer than she had and would never leave his best friend behind. Never.
And then, he was taken away. Riku was stolen away from Sora by the darkness and Maleficent and Ansem. But still, Riku searched for Kairi.
It was so clear, so apparent, even when the Door was closing. "Take care of her," he had said.
"If you want her taken care of," Sora had responded. "Take care of her yourself."
And Sora had grabbed that hand that had constantly reached out to him, and pulled Riku int the light. And together, they closed the door. Together, they returned to Destiny Island. Together, they had saved the world.
Sora, back home, was treated like a hero. But Riku wasn't. When they returned home, together, Riku was glared at in
disgust. They viewed him as a traitor. Wakka eventually got over it, and Selphie was too cheerful to hold a grudge for
long. Tidus wanted Riku to train him in the art of fighting, andovercoming darkness. But the adults were cruel and spite-
ful to him, saying nasty comments to his face or behind his back.
He dismissed it when Sora brought it up, saying it was to be expected. He had, after all, gone to the darkness. It was, after all, his fault.
"But you changed!" Sora argued. "You're a hero! You saved us in the end, and held back Ansem so he couldn't kill me and Kairi! You are a hero as much as I am!"
But Riku just smirked. "Not quite, Sora."
Sora argued some more, but Riku just shrugged it off, and went to their cave, Sora slowly following behind.
When they were safely alone, Riku began to explain. Brushing his silver hair behind his ear, he spoke. "Sora, no one will forgive me from destroying all those worlds and capturing all those princesses of heart. Because I sided with the darkness
and destroyed so many lives, I am forsaken."
"Not to me," Sora said. "You were too worried about me and Kairi that you didn't notice it sneak up on you."
Riku sighed. "Sora, I hurt you."
He shrugged. "I'm fine."
"Have you seen the way Kairi looks at me?" Riku said. "She hates me now, and she was like a sister to me, before I allowed
myself to be taken over."
"Like a sister?" Sora asked. But I thought...
"I'm surprised that you can stand looking at me, Sora, let alone be around me and joke with me like the old times."
"It is like the old times. People make mistakes."
"Not like me."
"You couldn't help it."
Riku slammed his fist into the ground. "Yes I could! I was just too busy being wrapped up in your fake betrayal that I
was the betrayer!"
"Maleficent used your own feelings against you. I can't do the same and hold them against you. Riku," Sora added. "You're
my best friend, and I won't let a little darkness stand in the way of that."
Riku scoffed. "A little darkness?"
"Yes, a little darkness. Ansem was much worse than you, darkness related."
"Yeah, but without me, Ansem would have never been able to revive."
Sora was speechless at that.
"You see now?" Riku asked. "I'm not worth your friendship."
"Yes you are!!" Sora argued, jumping to his feet.
Riku shook his head. "Sora, you don't understand."
"Yes I do," Sora said quietly. "I've been hated by a lot of people too Riku."
"Not like me. You've been hated by dark because of your light. I've been hated-"
"By the light because of your dark," Sora finished, cutting Riku off. "I know, Riku, I know."
"No, you don't!" Riku shouted. "You don't know what it's like, hurting your best friend without control whatsoever over yourself!"
"But, Riku--"
"Sora, stop!" Riku said, and ran out of the secret cave. Sora ran after him, into the light of day, but could not see
him anywhere.
I may have grown stronger than him, Sora thought to himself, but that doesn't make me faster.
"Sora!" He heard.
Oh no, he thought, why now? I've got to find Riku...
"Hey Kairi," he said anyway, turning his head in the direction of the falls.
She ran up to him, and grabbed his arm. "Have you been talking to Riku again?"
"Yeah, so what? He's my best friend."
She shook her head. "Your mom told you not to talk to him. All our parents are planning to get rid of him."
"What!?" He shouted. "That's not fair! Riku helped me save-!"
"The end doesn't justify the means, Sora."
He looked at her with a scrunched up nose. "I can't believe you Kairi. You hated him from the beginning, haven't you?
When you wanted just you and me to sail without him."
She didn't let go of his arm. "I don't want you talking to him."
He wrenched his arm from her grip. "You have no rule over my life, Kairi!"
"They're gonna hate you just as much as they hate him, Sora, if you keep on with this," She said, looking up at him.
"I don't care, Kairi. I love Riku, like a-" He realized what he said. "Like a brother."
Now it was her turn to look on with disgust. "You love him?"
Sora nodded.
"Sora, what do you think you're doing!?" She shouted. "I wouldn't care if you were...like that, but Riku!? C'mon Sora,
he's changed from bad to worse!"
The Keyblade master stared at her. "You're the one who's changed to worse. You're disgusting. Riku used to be your friend
as much as mine. He ignored the darkness to find YOU, Kairi!"
"Well he should have been paying attention!"
"You're disgusting Kairi. It seems the darkness has affected you more than him."
"Don't put me on his level."
"You're below him Kairi, a whole new level," Sora dissed. "Right down there with the adults."
She stared at him sadly.
"Don't give me that look. That's the look Riku saw when he tried to save you."
She stared after him as he completely blew her off and walked away, in the direction he thought he might find Riku.
It was then he noticed that the wind seemed too calm. The kind of calm before a storm. He sighed, knowing he had to find
Riku soon. Fast.
He took off, trying the second best place, because Riku ran from the secret cave.
