dream sequenceFalling,……Falling……falling…..THUMP
With that I woke up, examining my surroundings. I was..tied up. With rope. It was a small cavern, and only had a few blankets. I was not covered by one. It was just now that I realized that I was shivering. I frantically looked around and tried to scream for someone. But I couldn't even croak out 'help' my throat was too dry. I coughed. A hand came to my mouth, and pushed my head back. A voice said " I don't mean to hurt you, I just wanted to see you again, without the mask." I opened my eyes. And I couldn't believe them. Surely they were fooling me.No.. It couldn't be… It was Sora.
He brought a cup to my mouth, and forced the liquid down my throat. It was water. But at that point I didn't care. I coughed again, and he untied my hands, but not my feet. I wiggled them around, and flexed them, and slowly the feeling came back to them. "Sora…." He shook his head. "All this time Riku, and I still can't even see your face. But I wont untie you all the way, because who knows how much you have been brainwashed." I sat there in shock. "Brainwashed? " What thought of me did he have? What in the hell did he think I was? He laughed. "You don't even remember what the word means?" I angered. "Sora what in the hell do you think they did to me? They didn't brainwash me! If I was brainwashed, how would I remember you, How would I remember anything? Why would I every day, get whipped by the Unknowns, Trying to Escape! Why would I try to break free, to try to live my life like it was before the darkness?"
He went pale. " I can't take the risk you are lying." I pounded my fists into the ground. "Dammit Sora!!" He shrugged it off, and came over to me, gave me the cup of water again, and went to my face. I edged back a bit. He went over top of me, and pulled off the blindfold. I closed my eyes. "Riku, let me see those eyes, even if it is for the last time. I don't think I'll ever see you , or anything else ever again." I opened them , and stared at him. He smiled again. "Why won't you see anything again. " He chuckled at me, and sighed. "Because I am dying, Riku. " Dying.. No he can't be . He can't be dying!! "You .. can't be …" " He looked at me, through my eyes again. " I am. I am going to Hollow Bastion, after this damn whale spits me out. SO, all that will be left is the Darkness, and the Keyblade will go dormant again."
This was all too much. "But Sora, what about Kairi? I thought I told you to take care of her!" His face went emotionless, and then a grin seeped onto his lips. "She is safe, I saw her for a few days, as my last time. I gave her my good byes, and made my love to her, and hopefully, she can pass on of me what I could not. " Ok…. To much information.. But still. He was going to die? Without him noticing, I pit my hand in between the ropes on my legs, and summoned my dark blade, and ripped the ropes. I got to my feet, feeling really wobbly. Then I grabbed his shoulders. " I can't just send you to your death." He glared up at me. "Yes you can. Or I will commit suicide, right here and now. Then they would blame you, and then it would be quick wouldn't it?" I stepped back. "Why would I do something like that…. Oh." He smirked. " Yes, Riku, the well know assassin, who kills for fun, and resides in the darkness. Get in his way and he'll kill you" I looked at him. "Sora, you've changed. What happened o the hope, the trust, and all the optimism, the old Sora I knew had?" He shook his head. "Gone. Darkness does it to a person you should know. And my time is done. It's a sacrifice I have to make, in order to keep the ones in my heart safe."
Ok, I was giving up on that. So I thought I would ask about Haiden. He looked up at me. "Who?" " The girl with me, dressed in black. " His eyes grew wide, then small, and he simply shrugged. "She is still by your ship, I tied her up to, and put her on the bed. Why, what is she, your lover?" I furiously shook my head. "No, No, she is a tool, a person created for the Unknowns, with my blood. She went rebellious, and wrecked us here. Of all places. " He nodded. "Whatever. She sure screamed when I knocked you one. Had to zap her before she was tame enough to tie up . I thought she was actually gonna hurt me." He pulled up his sleeve, revealing a few deep red bruises, and a scratch. "She is a fighter that one." I nodded.
Will you at least, come back and help me fix my ship, like you used to?"
He hesitated, and then nodded. "Sure, I guess we needed to catch up some."
