Sora screamed silently as he fell. To his astonishment, he fell right through the island, and somehow into water underneath it. He was falling through the water, sinking like a large rock. ' It's my... dream again...' the sentence kept repeating slowly in his mind; reaching up he tried to grasp the sky. Feeling nothing come into his desperate fingers, he closed his eyes and gave up his strength. He could feel himself sinking faster and faster, it seemed as if his fall was endless.
' There's...no hope, I guess.'
' What do you mean by that, Sora? You're not like the kid I met before.'
' Who're you?...'
His eyes snapped open, looking around wildly. That was not his mind he heard. It was of a girl, soft spoken. Coughing, water seeped into his mouth and slid down his throat. With a jolt, the water was gone, he was dry, and he was standing on a white marble platform, the space around him black, gone, but he could hear the oddly depressing yet beautiful notes of an organ playing from somewhere.
"This makes no sense..."
Sora thought aloud.
"Actually, it does, but you don't understand things like this just yet. Maybe I could help you understand, someday?"
Blinking, Sora looked around. It was that same girl, with the soft voice. She sounded so frail... He heard giggles, quiet and gentle. Running to the edge of the marble platform, he looked down. Nothing there. Looking up, he saw the same thing. Sighing, he wished he were somewhere else, someplace he knew. Who cared where, maybe Traverse Town?
' Is that where you wish to be?'
"It'd be better than here."
' That's a different side of you, Sora. Let me help you out.'
That quiet laugh rang out like a lone bell, and an invisible force hit Sora, making him black out.
' You're in the First District...just like before...'
Then the disembodied voice was then gone. Faded away, in a sort of speaking.

Cid raised an eyebrow a little bit, and went into the shadow-infested alleyway behind the shop. There was a person there, but his features were hard to distinguish in the horrid light.
"Fucking street lights, can't see a damn thing at this hour."
Swearing a little bit under his breath, he shuffled over to investigate. Bending down and squinting, he gasped, and dropped his cigarette; which he rarely ever did. Recognizing him immediately, he quietly said,
"Sora? Kid, is that you? Wake up!"
Shaking him, Sora stirred slightly, which made Cid swear once again.
"Jesus, kid! Wake the fuck up already, shouldn't sleep in these shitty alleyways!"
Flickering his eyes open, Sora's vision went from the soft blurry lights to the bright, sharp colours of Traverse Town. Lulling his head slightly to his left, he gazed at Cid before snapping out of it.
"Cid? Am I really here?"
"Sure as Hell, kid."
Putting his hands on the ground, he forced his suddenly sore body up onto his feet. Wobbling some, he leaned on the now standing Cid for support. Sora couldn't believe how drained he felt. Also some kind of fragmented dream was flashing in his mind, it was so broken. Like crystals, his dream was shattered into non-eligible pieces. He was on a white marble platform, and he saw Kairi. There was also tropical music floating around. Wait----no. That's not how it went. Goofy was there, talking to Riku. The music was violins. No, no... that was not how it went...
"Something wrong, Sora? You look so fucking exhausted."
"Would you mind if you took me somewhere for me to nap? I feel odd inside..."
"Sure, just put your weight on me for support if you really need to."
Nodding absentmindedly, Sora strained his thoughts to remember his mixed up dream; looking at all the familiar places he saw before, he felt waves of nostalgia and old feelings of fear. It all came back to him, the confusion about the Keyblade, the Heartless, and Ansem... How it didn't make sense at first. It seemed so long ago that he first started fighting against the Heartless...
"I guess nothing's like before..."
Cid glanced down.
"What was that, kid?"
"Nothing Cid. Are we there yet?"
"No, we aren't."
Chuckling a bit, Cid helped Sora across the First District to put him in the hotel.

Good praise is very welcome, flames are not. Don't like it, please don't criticize me. It's rude and hurtful. =3 Anyhoo. I'll try to update ASAP, mmkay?
