Chapter 2 - Just A Dream?
I sat there for at least a hour. I wanted that moment to last, but I knew I had to get going. There was still much for me to make right. I watched a few lights come on in the other buildings of this small town. I knew it would be another hour before the sun would rise when suddenly all my energy vanished. Without knowing it, I fell into the world of slumber.
"A sound... it sounds familiar, but where... where have I heard it? It sounds like... like the ocean..." I opened my eye's as the bright sun flashed before me. I blocked the sun with my hand as I sat up. The wood of the peir creeked as I moved. I was dressed in my old outfit of dark blue pants, gloves, shoes, and my yellow shirt. A seagull cries out as it passes over me. I follow it with my eye's as it flies off. It was then I saw her. All I could do was stare in disbelief. The girl stood only a few feet from me looking out at the calm sea. Her deep reddish-purple hair flowed, as her skirt rustled in the salty breeze. I knew her from the first glance, though her hair had grown longer, but I still couldn't believe it. Her name raced through my head as I stood there. I caught myself from the daze and tried to call to her, "Kairi... Kairi, it's me! Can't you hear me?! Kairi!!" but my voice fell on deaf ears.
I desided to walk infront of her, when suddenly her view went from the sea to a rather large meteror falling from the sky. She ran to the shoreline, and folded her hands behind her as she arrived. I was running to her side, when everything began to change. First, it was the sky I took note in. It grew dark as if it was already the middle of the night. As I turned my attention once again to Kairi, I grew worried. The beach around her was vanishing at a fast rate, and just when I was about to grab her shoulder, was it then, that she too, vanished. I stumbled from not having her solid form to hold. "Why? What's going on?! What was all that?!" I looked up to see I was on a tan path cut through what seemed to be endless fields of healthy green grass. The grass grew almost to my waist as I stood up. I could hear someone shuffling their feet behind me as I turned around.
Shock over took me, as I saw who it was. No more that ten feet from me, was where he stood. His back to me, he stared upward at the stars as he swayed from side to side. Ahead of him, the tan path divided into three other pathways. Each looking as if it went on forever. I tried to speak to him, "Sora... Is that really you? Or am I dreaming again... Sora? Answer me! Please... I have to know! Sora..." but again, it seemed to go as it did with Kairi. Saddness began to fill my heart. Maybe the reason they didn't answer, was because they haven't forgiven me. Maybe they never want me with them again, because of all the pain and sorrow I gave them. I fell to my knees, my hands were the only thing holding me up from the ground. I closed my eye's wishing to die, to just fade from existence.
"Riku? Is that you?!" His voice sounded distant, but it was his. I look up to see him turned around, looking right at me. His light blue eye's filled with joy apon seeing me. He started toward me as I got to my feet, his face filled with happieness. He was just inches from reaching me when his face changed into a face I had only seen once before. A aura surrounded me as Sora passes right through me. A pain swells inside me as I fall to the ground. "Riku!! What's happening to you?!" His voice was full of fear, and seemed to grow more distant by the second. I tried to stand but couldn't move more than a few inches. "Riku!!!! Why?! Why are you fading?!" It was the last I heard of his voice. "So...ra..." I barley got out before all went dark.
"Sora... Kairi... Why is this happening?" I found myself free of the pain, but in a new world. As I got up, I saw all that surrounded me was darkness. Fear creep into me as I thought I was back at that place where it had all started years ago. It was when I started to move forward that I heard it. "Riku..." A chill, colder than death, fell over me as I heard the footsteps. Calm, but filled with a strong power, they grew closer to me. I was paralyesed with fear, not wanting to turn around to face what I was fearing. I wished it to be someone else, other than what I thought, but when the voice came again... I knew deep down it was Him.
