OOC: This chapter will probably be short to. It's just basically what Sora' s reactions are and Riku's feelings.
::: Riku's POV :::
It had been a long stressful morning for me and especially Kairi. When I had seen her do that to herself my heart almost was pulled from my chest. I remember it all so clearly... The blood, screams, and her tears...
I don't think I could take that... Was it really happening? Was the friend I cared the most for going to die in some hospital? Would her beautiful body be lying in a box sometime soon then being placed under the Earth? These thoughts shook me up. I couldn't dwell on the negative. I had to let myself think positively about all this... It seemed impossible though because the ambush of thoughts kept bombarding my mind and I felt a sharp pain enter my chest and I had to stop and think about all this for a moment. I let my weak knees collapse to the earth. I held my chest and eventually the pain stopped. I got up and dusted off my knees because they were scared with dirt from the ground. I had to continue walking and then meet up with Sora and talk things over with him...
It was about lunch time now and I hadn't eaten anything in two days because the pain and anxiety wouldn't let me. If I even attempted to eat anything it always resulted into a trip to the bathroom. Silver locks plastered my face and I pushed them away in fury. The little shack stood on a hill near the ocean. Kairi and me had told him countless times that one day the sea would sweep his house away. I then walked up the hill as the wind howled in fury. I could smell a storm nearby as I seen dark clouds start to form over the horizon. It was strange though... There wasn't a light in the house on and Sora was always one to have at least one light in his house on at all times. Was he even at home? I had to go and check anyway or the wind would take me away. I struggled to climb the wooden steps as the wind beat against my face. I soon felt the rain start to fall heavily down making me have to close my eyes. I banged on the door but got no answer so I turned the knob and surprisingly the door creaked open. I walked in and forced it to shut. I gazed around. It was very dark and eerie. It kind of reminded you of one of those horror movies where the guy would go into a dark house expecting someone to be there but instead there was a pack of ghosts awaiting your arrival. I shook this thought from my head. Not only was I letting my mind get the best of me I was going crazy to I think.
Then I seen an eerie glow coming from his bedroom. I walked in and then I nearly jumped backwards as Sora came out of the bathroom with a towel around him and his hair dripping wet.
"Do you mind?" he asked in a bitter tone.
"Sorry!" I replied as I backed out of his room with an unwelcome door shut in my face.
I sighed. Something was up with Sora... He wasn't himself. I could see where he was getting with the privacy invasion thing. Soon he came out with damp hair and an oversized robe covered him.
I soon heard the wind begin to howl outside and rain beat against the door.
"Hey help me get some towels." He replied as I failed to notice water begin to seep under the door. He carelessly stuffed the towels under the door and ignored.
"What do you want?" he asked in a cold tone of voice.
He seemed jumpy and by the dark circles under his blood shot eyes you could tell he hadn't slept in days. I was almost afraid to tell him but I had to.
"Sora Kairi had a nervous break down today and the doctors said that her tumors grown to such a size that there going to have to operate." I replied almost willingly holding my breath afraid what was coming next.
He stayed there quiet for a moment not facing me then he turned around and faced me. I then waited for his reply and I heard him take a dry raged breath from the musty air of the old shack.
"Get out you liar!" he yelled at me. I didn't know what to say.
"I said get out!" he yelled back at me. I then felt myself stumble over an uprooted plank.
"I said get out!" he yelled and he picked up a vase and threatened to throw it at me. I ran to the door and stepped out and shut it. I then heard something break and then a low toned sob fill the shack. I went away as the rain stung my eyes and the wind blew fiercely at me...
