"Are we there yet?" Jason asked every five seconds. "Shuddup!" Caitlin ordered. Kairi and Sora remained silent, but they sensed the anger growing in both Caitlin and Alex. "Why should I?" Asked Jason.
"SHUT UP AND SIT!" Alex shrieked. By will, she casted gravita and Jason hit the floor hard. "He's dead." Sora said. "Uh-huh." Kairi nodded.
"Finally, he's quiet." Caitlin muttered. "I wonder how Ryan's doing." Sora said. Jason got to his feet and sat next to Caitlin. "He's probably flirting with Amelia. He thinks he's God's gift to women." He snorted.
"He's such a pervert, kissing Alex when she's not paying attention. I mean, Riku's alive for crying outloud." Kairi hissed.
"Are we there yet?" Jason asked again. Sora glared at him. "We're here." Alex was the first one to get out of the ship. "She seems eager." Kairi giggled. "Too eager. I've never seen her like this." Caitlin sighed. "She missies Riku like crazy then." Jason muttered.
Alex practically jumped over the ledges of Rising falls faster than everyone else. "She's good at this! Alex, slow down and wait!" Kairi shouted. She was already at the top when she stopped. "This better not take forever, you guys." She said, checking her nails. "How do you do that?!" Jason yelled.
"I climbed Rising Falls a lot when I worked with Riku. He always wanted to take the longer way than the shortcut most of the time." Alex answered.
"I hate this now." Jason muttered. "Shut up and climb." Kairi hissed.
An hour later...
All of them finally were at the top. Jason, Caitlin and Kairi were so out of breath. "Never make me do that again." They panted. "It's much easier to get down. You just have to jump off the ledges." Sora stated. "Are you crazy?! That's total murder suicide, you know!" Caitlin screamed. "Not really. I've tried that." Kairi said. Alex walked ahead of the group to the lift to the castle. "Come on. Get up. Let's go."
"Why does she have to be leader?" Jason whined. "Because she's the eldest." Caitlin groaned. "Well, at least, when we find Riku, she's not the leader anymore." Kairi moaned. "I heard that. Let's get going." Alex ordered. Sora rolled his eyes and the group followed her to the castle. When they reached the entrance to the Entrance hall, Alex sweatdroppped. "Now, I wish I wasn't the one who blasted down these doors."
"You were the one who did that?!" Sora pointed at the ruined doors. Alex nodded. "Yup. That was her all right." Caitlin examined the ruin. "The entrance hall. I remember I fought Riku here once before. He was controlled by darkness." Alex whispered, walking into the room.
"Whoa! This place is huge!" Jason yelled.
"Alex, watch where you're going!" Sora shouted. Alex walked right through a portal. It led her to the castle chapel. "I walked through a portal and I didn't notice. What else can happen?" She asked.
Riku and Mickey were dropped off at Hollow Bastion since Dual Wielder Sora and Kairi needed to be somewhere. "See ya!" Mickey waved and turned to Riku, who seemed to have trouble getting up Rising Falls. 'This is harder if you're blind.' Riku thought. "Need help?" The mouse asked.
"No, I'm fine on my own." Riku replied, hanging from a ledge. "Summon Simba." Simba appeared and Mickey jumped on. He grabbed Riku and shoved him on. "Where to?" Simba asked. "Great Crest." Riku snorted. In a split second, he was there. "What just happened? I was with Mickey a second ago and now, I'm on the Great Crest." He muttered. Since Riku was blind, his sense of hearing had improved greatly. He heard only a female voice coming from the Castle chapel. The very place where he first met Alex.
"Who can that be?" He let his memory guide him to the chapel.
"Who's there?" Alex asked. She had a firaga spell, ready to fire. "I can hear you have lit a fire spell." A male voice said. "Who's there? Answer my question." Alex demanded. The voice's keeper hid in the shadows of the room. He chuckled. "I'm invulnerable to magic." The flame Alex's hand dispersed at her will. "You still didn't answer my question." Alex snapped.
The figure stepped away from the shadows, revealing his shoulder length silver hair. 'It's...' Alex took a step forward. "Riku, is that you?" Her voice wasn't harsh like before, but gentle. Riku nodded. She walked toward him and slapped him, leaving a red mark on his cheek. "What the hell was that for?!" He yelled.
"That was for not coming back to me for four years. And this is also for that same reason." She said. Their lips met and kissed like there would be no tomorrow.
'I never want to leave you again, Alex.' His arms dropping down to his girlfriend's waist.
He felt her tears of joy against her cheeks and his. Her tears cured his eyesight. He looked through the blindfold and saw her beautiful face. They broke the kiss and Riku took off his blindfold.
Alex and Riku were about to kiss again but something prevented them from doing so.
"Sorry to interrupt this romantic moment you two lovebirds are having right now." A voice familiar to Alex said. She gasped.
Cliffy. Who is the person? Obvious, it's Ryan or Amelia. Your guess.
Please r&r.
