Thank you, niki!! :) Everyone look and see my first review. I will revel in it. hugs the computer screen Me so happy!! sniffs All those that review will gain favor with me. All those that don't... well, you'll just have to see what my miniature space hamster named "Boo," has to say about your laziness. Yes, that is the hamster that Minsc talks to in Baldur's Gate 1 and 2. again hugs comp. screen
Cool-sounding story. I like the Riku/OC. There are just way too many Sora/Kairi and Sora/Riku (shiver). Always good to have something different. Keep writing.-niki :)
Chapter 2
Struggling Beginnings
"Where ya going? Why can't you do anything right? Get our guest some food. Damn, girl. Pleash?"
"Yes, mother."
"Yeesh. She thinks she is gonna go to a big, big, college. Pffft. Yeah, whatever," she told the man openly. I opened the refrigerator full of hate.
"Make Robert shum bacon! And quit dawdling!" She snarled at me. I turned around slowly.
"There isn't any left."
"There sshould be sshince I am ashumming you shent the girlsh over to that Mrsss. Garfield. Sshe does thissh practically every Monday!" My mother hissed conspiratorially, acting like I was the worst person ever, to the man."I am sorry there isn't any."
"Damn it! Why can't you do anything right?! Don't look at me that way girl! I can shmack that look off your face!" She got up fingering her belt threateningly, that she always wore around her waist. Smiling, Robert grabbed her wrist and whispered in her ear. She giggled and playfully pushed against his chest. The way he looked at me when he whispered words into her ear, made my body crawl with shivers. She sat on his lap for a while before deciding to "go to sleep." They slowly made their way to her bedroom. I sighed and crawled in my blankets hoping to sleep.
Suddenly, I was awake. I got up reflexively expecting it to be morning. I didn't change into my pajamas because the girls weren't there, and a strange man WAS. Looking into the darkness, I collected fragments of my dream though how foggy it was. There was a spaceship, and mice and ducks in clothing. It was quite odd. There was someone else there, but I couldn't see their face.
Listening all around me I heard the sirens, the dogs barking, the building settling, the heavy breathing....umm..heavy breathing? Near me? I looked to my right to find the street lights shining on the hidden Robert fellow. My heart caught in my throat. Standing up, I faced him. He stood up as well.
"You know you are a very pretty girl. Prettier than your mom and..... young," at this he looked me up and down licking his lips. I grabbed the blanket and threw it on him as I dashed towards mom's room. I nearly made it there when I was tackled from behind. I was then flipped over on my back. Kicking at him frantically I managed a hard kick to his groin. He moaned in pain as I pushed backwards until I ran into the table. Feeling atop it, I found a glass. When I felt his hands grab my ankles to pull me down towards him I took the glass and smashed it on his head. He groaned and hit out at me, but I was already gone. "GET OUT!!!" I screamed in a high, unreal, shaky voice. I turned on the lights and held a piece of broken glass in my hand that I didn't know I had grabbed from the floor. It was held so tight, I felt the blood running down my arm to drop in a puddle on the floor. Robert looked up at me terrified and walked swaying to the door.
"I won't forget this, girlie," he blew a kiss at me, snarled, and walked out slamming the door. I dropped the glass ignoring the pain in my right hand. Shaking and sobbing so hard I fell to the ground, and pressed my cheek into the carpet. I didn't hear my mother enter the room.
"WHAT DID YOU DO?" She kicked me in the side hard. I stood up wearily and turned my cold eyes onto her.
"I threw your sick, perverted 'boyfriend' out!""YOU PROVOKED HIM DIDN'T YOU! I ALWAYSH KNEW YOU WERE A SCHLUT!"
"I am sorry, mom, but I think you are-" Slapping me with one hand, she yelled at me, "I COULD HAVE PEACE AND HAPPINESSH IF YOU WEREN'T AROUND! I WISCH YOU WERE NEVER BORN! KICK MY BOYFRIEND OUT, AND SCHLUTTING AROUND HIM! I WILL SSHOW YOU TO MESSH IN MY LIFE!"
A blow to the head had me down. I didn't even know she had the belt in one of her hands. It hit me on the temple a second time making me see stars. A darkness started to creep over the red haze in my eyes. I looked up at her and tried to defend myself from the raining blows. My legs, my arms were belted over and over. When she figured the belt wasn't hurting me enough, she kicked me in the stomach. Finally, one blow to the head with her shoed feet (why did she have shoes on?) and the cold darkness engulfed me.
Mickey and Riku reached the palace shortly. They were greeted by Hewey, Dewey, and Lewey, as well as Daisy, and Minnie. Minnie and Mickey hugged shortly. Daisy inquired about Donald, but all Riku could do is shrug to her question about his whereabouts. Staying for a while and discussing the story with them, he hurriedly told them that he wanted to leave as soon as possible to go find Sora and company. They hurriedly agreed.
The ship was prepared for him to enter it and he was ready to leave, when Lewey came up and told him to follow him.
Riku followed the anxious duckling around the huge palace. Finally they reached an area that was filled with anvils, and different assortments of battle accessories.
Motioning for Riku to hold on a second, Lewey made his way into the back of the room and returned with a small red wagon that had armor and weapons on it.
"These are for you. Crafted by the moogles, and well.. the owner never got to wear them," he said sadly.
"These were supposed to be...Sora's?" Riku inquired dreading the answer.
"Yes. We want you to have them."
"Thank you," Riku lowered his head sadly. Breathing deeply, he raised his head proudly, smiled at the duckling, and changed into complete set of the obsidian armor, ignoring the duck's gaping stare at his back. Once he had all the clips in place he looked down into the wagon and saw two twin blades. The middles of both were cut out of the blades -as he found out as he pulled them out- and around the hilt were white dragons with rubies for eyes. He sheathed them, belted on the sheaves and looked around to find the duckling missing. Suddenly a black cape was thrown to him from his right. Looking down he saw the duckling was amused at him, for he had drawn his sword in reflex. Sheathing it, he gave a short laugh and clipped the cloak around his neck with a silver clasp. This time he was ready when Lewey threw a face mask to him.
"That will protect you from gaseous hazards such as the black fungus produce." Impressed Riku let it lie loosely around his neck as he shook the little white feathered hand with his new black leather gloves, bowed and took his leave.
Waving goodbye, to the white palace with its wide and beautiful grounds, he left. Mickey had offered to go, but Riku couldn't let anyone else interfere...
