Some things belonging to shadows

Chapter 8
"This time, I'll make sure you stay dead."
"Sora?"
"Soooora."
"Hey Sora!"
"Huh?!" Sora woke up from his daze to see Tidus looking a bit worried.
"Geez Sora! What's up with you?! It's like you got a crush!" Tidus told him.
"Not me. Shadow." Sora told him and the rest froze.
"You mean he finally admitted he likes you?!" Selphie was the first to scream.
"What?! No! Shadow doesn't like me!" Sora blushed.
'That's what you think.' Tidus and Auron thought.
"Then who does Shadow have a crush on?" Selphie asked him.
"It's not so much of a crush as it is an obsession/desire to kill." Sora threw his gaze to the faraway Riku, who sat comfortably with Kairi in their own little world.
"Kill?" Selphie was confused and gazed over to where Sora was looking and gasped, "Riku?!" she asked in a whisper and Sora nodded.
"Shit! For real?" Auron asked, joining them in the whispers.
"Why does he want to do that?" Tidus also joined in the whispers.
"Don't know. Shadow won't tell me. He only says its revenge." Sora sighed.
"Revenge? Against what?" Auron was confused.
"Don't know. But I don't think its Riku he's mad at. That, and I couldn't care less." Sora said smirking.
"What, you want him dead too?" Auron asked.
"Don't know. But I think he's in the way." Sora said.
"Great. Sora, why not just move on?" Tidus asked him.
"No way! I really like Kairi!" Sora pouted, getting a bit pissed off.
"Okay, kid. Calm down." Auron put his hand on top of Sora and sighed.
"Why? Afraid of me?" Shadow asked and they all jumped.
"Stop doing that!" Auron bonked him.
"Ouch! Why'd you hit me?" Sora asked with puppy dog eyes.
"Stop transforming then!" Auron yelled.
"But it's not up to me!" Sora cried.
"Auron, stop picking on Sora!" Selphie yelled.
"I'm not!" Auron tried to defend himself.
"Yeah right!" Selphie almost bit him.
"Now, now…" Tidus tried to calm them down.
"…"
"…" Kairi watched them worriedly.
"They could've stayed murmuring about lord-knows-what, but nooo, they had to start a fight." Riku vein was almost popping.
"Riku, please calm down." Kairi petted him, trying to console him.
"…" Sora threw death glare daggers at Riku when he saw that.
"Sora?" Tidus called and managed to bring the boy's attention towards him.
"What?" Sora asked, forgetting his hatred for a second.
"What do you wanna do today?" Tidus asked.
"Yeah! I wanna go see the islands with Sora!" Selphie suddenly said, ignoring Auron.
"What? Oh!" Tidus remembered.
"Then, are we going to continue seeing the islands?" Sora asked.
"I guess so…" Tidus went into thought.
"Yay!" Selphie and Sora cheered.
"See ya two laters!" Selphie said as the four of them left.
"…" Riku noticed Sora had given him a very horrible look that said 'I'm-gonna-kill-you'.
"What's wrong Riku?" Kairi asked.
"Nothing." Riku lied.
… …
"It's totally the best view here!!" Sora cheered.
"Coming Sora!!!" Selphie followed the hyperactive child after he had drunk some soda when Tidus and Auron weren't looking.
"Why give soda to a kid susceptible to become hyper after a drink of normal stuff?" Auron asked himself.
"At least he doesn't get drunk on alcohol. Unlike someone I could mention." Tidus smirked as he glanced at Auron.
"Oh, really? Need I remind someone what he did after just two drinks of tequila?" Auron gave a wicked smile to Tidus.
"That was your fault!!" Tidus yelled, blushing like crazy.
When people looked over to them, including Sora and Selphie, Tidus fell to the floor, completely embarrassed.
"Stupid…" Tidus muttered.
"Hahahaha…" Auron laughed and the people ignored them.
"Look, look Selphie! You can see the bastard's house from here! And yours! And Kairi's! And grandpas!" Sora said like a small child hyper on candy.
"Oh, you're right Sora." Selphie petted him.
"How do you think they'll let me let him live?" Selphie jumped at the question.
"S-Shadow?" Selphie asked, trying to even her heartbeat.
"I wanna kill the bastard." Shadow smirked, looking happy.
"Why?" Selphie looked curious now.
"He's an eyesore." Shadow bluntly said.
"What did he do to you?" Selphie asked.
"Not him. His family." Shadow took hold of the fence bar and managed to break it.
"Riku's family? But they're dead." Selphie said.
"I know. That's why I'm killing him as well." Shadow told her.
"Can I tell Tidus and Auron?" Selphie asked.
"No need. We heard." Tidus approached them and stood next to Selphie.
"So, you plan on stopping me?" Shadow asked them.
"Not really. Our job is to make sure you don't get out of hand. But I guess theoretically, this doesn't count." Auron said, standing next to Shadow.
"Yeah. And we're certain you'll stop before things get out of hand." Tidus smiled.
"How can you be so sure? For all you know I could kill him right now and you wouldn't even stop me." Shadow smirked.
"True. But Sora would. Deep down, I think he knows Kairi really likes this idiot. No matter how it may break his heart." Tidus smiled at him.
"Stupid." Shadow looked away, hiding a slight blush.
"Heh heh." Tidus laughed, smirking at Auron, who smirked back.
"Auron?" Auron turned around to see a guy his age walking towards them.
"Squall?" Auron asked, dumbstruck.
"Hey dude." Squall shook hands with the dumbed Auron.
"What are you doing here?" Auron asked.
"Working." Squall said, "'Cause you know, I also got to take care of Shadow here." Squall smirked at the glaring Shadow, "Hey Shadow, long time no see."
"Piss off asshole." Shadow glared death daggers at Squall.
"Wait. How do you guys know each other?" Tidus asked.
"I wanna know too." Selphie said, interested in this.
"I'd like to know that as well." Shadow said, still glaring at Squall.
"We're childhood friends." Auron said bitterly.
"Don't say it so sadly." Squall smirked.
"Wait, do you know a guy named Seifer per chance?" Tidus asked and both males jumped.
"When did you meet him? Did he say something weird? Or better yet, did he do anything to you?" Auron asked, standing next to Tidus, worriedly.
"I'm alright. Though, he does know I'm gay." Tidus said.
"Yeah, he has a way of knowing for some reason." Auron went into thought.
"Anyway, Squall. Seifer said to get your ass back home." Tidus re-laid the message he was asked to give.
"Let's do this. You pretend you didn't see me, and I'll pretend I didn't hear anything about Riku, okay?" Squall asked.
"Seems someone is running away from Seifer now is he?" Auron smirked; glad to have some dirt on Squall.
"Shut the fuck up. That has nothing to do with you." Squall glared.
"Alright then. You stay out of our way, and we'll stay out of yours. Deal?" Shadow stood in front of Squall, smirking his evil way.
"… Fine. You have a deal." Squall shook hands with Shadow and Selphie mentally saw a thunder strike, thinking Squall just made a deal with the devil.
Squall bid them farewell and left. As soon as they were done playing, since Sora reverted back still hyper, they returned to Riku's house.
"Bye you three!!" Selphie waved them goodbye and left them.
"See ya Selphie!!" Sora said goodbye to the hyperactive girl as he was dragged inside.
"We're back!" Tidus announced their arrival as they entered the house.
"Did you people enjoy just playing?" Riku asked, as he watched TV.
"Not rea- Wait, yeah." Auron said, grinning.
"Screw yourselves." Riku said and Auron grinned even more.
"Don't mind if we do." Auron dragged Tidus upstairs.
"Guess I'll sleep here tonight." Sora sat down on the couch.
"Whatever." Riku said and didn't notice Sora crawling towards him.
"…"
"…Huh?" Riku almost jumped when he was face to face with Sora.
"…"
"What?" Riku asked, slightly blushing.
"I wanna kill you." that was the one thing Riku didn't expect.
TBC…
