Suffocating in the Darkness
Chapter Three, Part One: One Who Was Never Loved

Riku stared hard at the boy. It couldn't be...but it was...

That boy wearing ragged clothing, around the age of eleven, sitting at the base of the tree was truly the man that had taken Sora away from Riku. The man that Riku wanted to kill.

"Merlin..." said Riku, looking at the old man beside him. "That can't be him..."

"But it is, Riku." said Merlin.

"But, you said that he was the dark side of Ansem's heart; how could he be just a—"

"A boy?" finished Merlin. "It is possible that—even though he is a part of Ansem—he looks a little different than him and could have been born as a normal human would. It's very confusing..."

Before Riku had time to ask more questions, the boy had set off at a brisk walk down the valley.

Merlin and Riku followed as Mushu rode on Riku's head. As they passed the tree, Riku looked down to the poor bird, its bloodied feathers scattered around its dead body. Riku grimaced.

How can someone be so cruel to such a harmless creature?

The boy seemed to be frightened; every once and a while he would turn around as if someone would come from behind and attack him.

"Merlin, does he see us?" asked Riku, wondering why the boy kept turning his head towards them.

"No, Riku. He cannot see us for this is only a memory."

They did not speak for awhile after that. They had entered a forest filled with thorns and hedgerows on the side of the lane that had appeared when they entered. Then the lane curved to the right and fell away, sloping down to a hillside, giving them a view of an old marble manor surrounded by the overgrown thorns.

The boy then again turned around, and broke into a run. It was so sudden, Riku and Merlin had to quicken their pace. Mushu whined and panted as he went up and down by Riku's strides.

Riku thought that the manor must be where the boy lived, but at such conditions; the stained glass windows were broken and some of them held grime. The walls of the manor were covered by thorns, some of the tips intruding the windows. Just as Riku had concluded, the boy ran straight to the door that was hanging from its hinges and entered inside, Riku and Merlin jumping quickly inside before the boy locked the door shut.

Riku looked around; the room was bare and dark, the only source of light was a candle that stood on a mantle in the far corner. As the dark shadows passed the boy's face as he went by the candle, he stopped.

There was a rustle and a crack, and a man with sweeping white hair with dark skin and amber eyes, wearing a tanned robe, appeared in front of the boy.

"You're late, again."

Although the man looked very young, his voice deceived his youth; he sounded very ancient. The boy gave the man a threatening look.

"You don't give a damn about me, so why pretend, Ansem?"

"That tongue of yours will get you into trouble."

"Leave me alone..."

Ansem grabbed hold of the boy's arm abrasively, hissing in his face.

"Come. You must have your lesson today."

Maybe it was the trick of his eye, but Riku thought he just saw the boy tremble and a look of fright crossed his dark face.

"What is Ansem talking about as in a lesson...?" said Riku. Merlin looked very grave.

"I'm afraid you have to see it to understand..."

Ansem began leading the boy to the darker depths of the mansion. As Riku, Merlin, and Mushu followed, they went down flights of spiraling stairs, their feet being the only audible thing. They passed a hallway, torches ablaze to guide them through the darkness.

Riku heard the boy whimper incoherently as Ansem smirked at the boy's face.

For a moment, Riku felt sympathy for the boy.

Ansem came to an abrupt stop to a door with something hanging off from a nail on it. Riku's emerald eyes only fixed on the door to the shadow beneath the nail. Riku took a step back when he realized what it was.

It was a disembodied head of a woman with long dark hair cascading some of her ashen face. Her red eyes were bulging and her lips were open to a silent scream.

"Gruesome, isn't it?" said Merlin quietly. Mushu shivered on top of Riku's head.

"You don't see that everyday!"

The boy tried desperately to get away from Ansem and the head, but Ansem only shoved the boy inside the room, shutting the door on the boy's shrieks.

"LET ME OUT! AHHHHHH! ANSEM, STOP THIS!"

Ansem only smirked and walked away, the ends of his robes sweeping past the other three. Riku looked at Ansem's back then at Merlin.

"How are we going to—?"

"Aha," Merlin pulled out his wand from his robes and with a wave, Riku felt himself transport into thin air. When his feet had touched the ground, his eyes had to now adjust to the darkness. Riku looked around to find the boy, but he only heard the piercing screams in the distance.

"Merlin, where is he?"

But Merlin simply pointed at something in front of Riku. And there he was—the boy—curled up, still screaming manically.

Without a thought, Riku ran towards the boy and dropped to his knees. The boy's body seemed to be worming with something black as it encircled the boy, his tears of crimson falling from his amber eyes. Riku tried and tried reaching his hand out to save the boy, even if the boy had hurt him in later life, but to no avail; his hand just simply went through the boy without any effect. Riku whirled around.

"We have to save him, Merlin!"

Merlin raised both his eyebrows.

"Could you possibly be feeling sympathy for this boy?"

"No," said Riku quickly, "yes...I don't know! What is this anyway? I thought this was a lesson for him!"

"It is a lesson for him, Riku..." said Merlin gently. "A lesson that Ansem will let him suffer for Ansem wanted the boy to be able to handle the darkness,"

"But I thought the boy was the dark side of his heart?"

"He is, but that doesn't mean he was use to the dangerous power,"

Still confused, Riku turned around to only see a heap of blackness where the boy once was. Riku swished his head this way and that, wondering where the boy was until the blackness commenced to stir. A hand probed out of it, covered in what looked like black blood slipping through dark fingers. The blackness began to disperse to uncover a nude older boy of fourteen, crouched with his head down, his white bangs cascading his dark face.

With a high pierced scream, the boy cringed as something dark began to seep out of his back; a pair of black wings stretched out as crimson fell from the holes of the boy's back. Riku watched, wincing as the boy screamed when the wings moved without his will.

The horrible sound of bones extending emitted the eerie silence that took hold of the darkness.

Finally, the boy stood up, holding his cold arms to gather useless warmth. Riku blushed. He looked to see what Merlin's expression on his face was, but the wizard was walking away from Riku.

"Merlin, where—?" but Riku was only answered when the boy was ahead of Merlin, his wings dropping small black feathers. A moment later, a thin light began to seep through the darkness until a doorway showing the manor's hallways showed, Ansem standing there.

His face held a smirk of satisfaction as the boy slowly approached him, his amber eyes glinting.

"So...I presume you had enough of the lesson today?"

The boy did not answer.

Ansem narrowed his eyes.

"Then that means you're not?"

"N-no..." stammered the boy, still clutching his arms. "I'm done..."

Ansem's smile widened, holding his hand to stroke a wing. The boy flinched at the contact.

"You'll get use to these," said Ansem quietly. "And you'll be able to use them at your own will...but in the mean time..."

"Yes?" the boy asked, his face turning to an expression of fear.

"Rest,"

Riku saw the boy sigh greatly as Ansem led him back up the stairs and turn to a corner to a room with a red four-poster bed with gold hangings.

The boy took a seat on the bed, allowing Ansem to pull the covers over his naked body. Ansem ran his fingers through the boy's hair, the boy purring at the contact.

Riku raised an eyebrow.

Didn't a moment ago the boy hated Ansem with all his heart? So, why the hell was he just doing that with Ansem?

"Ansem..." came the boy's quiet voice. Ansem's smile softened a little.

A little.

"Yes?"

"Why do you do this to me? You said you loved me..."

Love?

Riku stared at the two. Mushu's mouth went wide open as Merlin watched intently.

"Love is such a strong word to you use, my puppet. I only desire you..."

Ansem proved his point by furiously kissing the boy. Riku felt his jaw had just dropped to the floor.

Why was Ansem kissing the boy? Isn't it like he was kissing himself?

And why the hell did Riku feel like it was him and Sora kissing each other, their moans trapped in their throats?

"I hate you," was all that was said when Ansem had let go of the boy, and before he attacked the boy again with more erotic ministrations.

The younger male curled his fingers in Ansem's hair, moaning incoherently as Ansem's hungry kisses went lower, and lower, and lower until—

"That will do for now, Riku," said Merlin. He took Riku by the elbow and tugged. Next moment, Riku again felt his insides knotting tightly before landing on his feet, back in Merlin's now dim hut.

"Are you saying that Ansem liked his darker side of his heart?" asked Riku at once, as Merlin hoisted Mushu off Riku's head to place him on the table. With a wave of his wand, Merlin made the basin disappear and conjured two cups of tea and little sandwiches in the center of the table out of nowhere. "I don't get it,"

"Oh, I wouldn't say like in this situation, Riku." said Merlin, seating himself in his red armchair beside him and indicating Riku to seat in the green chair that was too conjured out of thin air.

"So you mean, love?" said Mushu, licking his fangs at the sight of the grub on the table. Merlin handed him a sandwich; Mushu immediately stuffed his face.

"No," said Merlin calmly. "As Ansem had said, he only desired the boy. Nothing more,"

"But how?" said Riku, taking a sandwich. "How could he desire part of himself? That's just...err—"

"Wrong?" asked Merlin, folding his hands in front of him. "In your perspective, it could be 'wrong', but to Ansem, it was the only way for him to allow that boy to become stronger."

"But how?" Riku repeated wonderingly.

"I'll later on tell you; it is late, but if you have any questions about anything else, come right up to me to ask."

Suddenly, something that was nagging at Riku came tumbling out of his lips.

"Sora... What does this have to do with Sora?"

"Everything," answered Merlin. "Everything..."

"How did you get the memory?"

"Oh, have you heard about Ansem's reports?"

"I...I think so..."

"Well, after Sora collected them, he gave all of Ansem's reports to me. I had always wondered why he'd give them to me, but I didn't argue. So, I myself read these reports, reading how Ansem's research might help us to learn more about the Heartless when one day, while I was reading the last report, a silver substance like the one from the bottle appeared on the paper, floating absently.

"Curious as I was, I placed it in the bottle to later on see the memory. From the moment I saw it, I knew it was a memory. And no, Riku," said Merlin, eyeing the look Riku gave him. "I did not see the private moment Ansem had with his dark side."

"Oh..."

A long silence presented its self over the three.

"So, all of this has to do with Sora?" whispered Riku finally. "But I don't understand..."

Merlin frowned.

"Ah, I see. Well, there's plenty more of this...but not much. There is one important piece that I'm missing..."

"So you have the rest?"

"I presume I do,"

Riku bit his lip.

"Do you think it's all right for me to feel a little sympathy for him, the boy? I mean—" said Riku, fidgeting in his chair at the look Merlin was giving him, "I know it's weird to, but..."

"Just a little will do, Riku," said Merlin calmly, smiling. "Now, since I've shown you a glimpse of Ansem's prodigy, I suppose I have to tell you what the King has ordered for you to do."

"'King'? You mean King Mickey?"

"Precisely,"

"What does he want?"

Merlin only smiled and said, "I think it's time we returned to the others, don't you think?"

o-o-o

Your eyes open to the verdant scenery before you. Tall, green grass danced in the breeze, kissed by the multiple blue and violet butterfly wings. A smile forms on your lips, but it fades as quickly as it came.

The sound of feet crunching over the grass makes you turn around. Then you see him, but...

He looks different.

His eyes...they didn't hold the familiar determined light in them; and that smile...

It didn't suite him at all.

"Sora."

His voice comes out silky and firm, violent. You shudder at it, that look.

He was standing not far from you, the butterflies scattering a little from his shuffling feet. Silver hair swayed by the breeze, as though you were seeing something ethereal. But there was no mistaking him—

"Riku?"

He nods, not taking his piercing emerald eyes off your face.

Your heart beating very fast, you manage to put up a smile.

"Sora..." his voice sounded devilish. "You've come to ruin my relationship, haven't you?" Riku inclined his head and smirked.

Relationship? Yes, he did have Kairi, didn't he? At this, the smile falters. All of a sudden, a burst of wind passes, the butterflies scattering with it. Your spiky brown hair ruffles as the butterflies slightly touch you, leaving an eerie feeling behind.

"Well—have you?"

"N-no..."

No matter how you wish for him, you knew he only loved one person, and that was Kairi. The girl who was standing behind Riku, her back faced upon the two of you.

"Liar." hissed Riku, taking another step forward. He outstretched his hand to the side; with a shimmer of gray, Oblivion appeared in his hands, an evil smirk curled his lips. "Come to play?"

It didn't sound very inviting...

"Riku?" you know your voice is shaking; you can't help it.

"Yes, Sora?" said Riku, lowering his voice. He takes another step, then another—until his breath is mingling in yours. You shiver at the proximity.

"R-Riku?" you choke back a dry sob. The smile widened.

"My Sora..." he said as he stroked your cheek with the back of his free gloved hand. "So frail, so innocent..." His eyes narrowed when you smiled sadly at him again.

"So dead."

Without any time to react, he thrust the Keyblade to your collarbone. You shriek in pain, dropping to your knees.

A tear rolled from your sapphire eyes, shimmering as you try to wonder why your friend was doing this to you.

"Riku..."

"Yes?" Riku laughed, and it wasn't his usual playful tone, either, but cold and sharp. He placed a hand on your back, which you now realized a black wing has spread from it. Your eyes go wide as his pale fingers curl around them and—

RIIIP!

The sound of bone breaking shattered the beautiful atmosphere. It seemed the blue skies had darkened with the feeling around the two of you. Another hot tear feel from your cold face. You can't speak...all words seemed to get lost in the pain.

Unbearable it was...

Musthavehisheart...

His cold laughter erupted through the deathly silence. You want to scream his name, you wanted to plead for help.

But you couldn't...

ThenewMaster...

You can't bear to see him like this, that cold smile, that expression in his eyes...

You didn't understand...

KilltheLight...

What were these voices doing in your head? Were they his or his?

Sohungry...must...have...must...

Have...what?

Then you understood: you wanted only one thing at the moment. Riku's pale hands encircled around Oblivion, raised it high over your chest, then—

"NOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Sora took deep long breaths as he shook under the covers, sweat matting his heart-shaped face. The sun's rays streamed from the stained glass window in his room. He clutched his arms tightly as he shut his eyes closed, reliving the nightmare.

Was Riku going to do that to him?

Was he?

To reassure himself, Sora placed a hand to his heart; a dull pain was there, but nothing more.

It scared Sora...

There it was—that stupid symbol that haunted the brunette...the Heartless symbol with wings embracing it.

A sigh escaped his lips before he realized something: Shi was gone. Sora blinked at the Shadows absence. He searched frantically everywhere on his bed. He even looked under the bed, hoping a pair of amber eyes would be peering through the darkness.

Where was his heartless guardian anyway? Didn't Shi fall asleep beside him last night?

As if it was to answer his question, Sora felt a sudden chill around him. It was then when he saw something stir under his covers...and a pair of yellow eyes began staring back at Sora.

But it wasn't Shi.

Sora yelped, jumping back a little to stay away from the now emerging black—dragon?—from his velvet covers. Then, Sora heard Star's voice from behind the door.

"Sorry about Nightmare waking you...I heard someone scream from my room. Just wanted to make sure you were okay..."

The door opened to reveal Star, her long brown hair falling over a black nightgown. She yawned slightly.

"What was that all about, Sora? Why'd you scream?" she asked, taking a seat on the edge of his bed.

Sora went red around his ears. "Just a nightmare..."

"You sure?" Star's face was stern—worried...

Sora slowly nodded. He pointed at the now—dancing?—black dragon that was resting on Star's lap.

"What is that?"

"I suppose you met my guardian heartless."

"Oh... Why is it a dragon?"

Star blinked at the question before answering, "Some Heartless are able to evolve...you know like those Heartless called Red Nocturne and other stuff..."

Sora had remembered those red creatures that shoot fireballs.

"Okay...so its name is Nightmare?"

"Uh-huh." said Star. "It's friendly," she added as the brunette cautiously placed his hand to pet the dragon. The girl smiled as Sora laughed as Nightmare slithered to Sora to friendly nibble on his ear.

A smile...hasn't it been such a long time since Star had smiled...?

Was the mask she had been holding for nine years now faltering? Because of some boy who could never understand what she had been through?

Or was she just imagining?

Yes, she was just imagining...

She hoped.

A knock on the door interrupted her deep thoughts. Star looked over at the door to see Devi peering through a crack from the door. The dark skinned girl hopped over to the bed, making Sora startled by her presence.

"Hiya, Sora! Morning, Star!"

"Good morning..." murmured Star. Her stern façade had taken over. Again.

"Hi, Devi...you seem happy..." said Sora, letting Nightmare curl over to Star. Devi gave him a cheery grin.

"Of course I'm happy!"

"Why?"

"Well, I have to be happy...since today is not a good day..."

"Why?"

"Because DiZ is coming today..."

"Oh shit!"

Star scrambled out of the bed and stormed out of the room. Her footsteps vanished as Sora and Devi blinked at her abrupt outburst.

"What's wrong with Star?" asked Sora finally.

"She must have forgotten—that's not like her..." said Devi thoughtfully. "Besides, we have to get ready."

Sora had just realized that he was still in his pajamas while Devi was wearing a black robe with a hood. Her flaming red hair was up in a loose bun with green chopsticks. With a wave of her hand, she conjured another black robe and tossed it to Sora.

That was right; Devi was able to conjure things with her mind alone.

"Just put it over your PJs; we don't really have time to get ready 'cause—"

Another knock on the door interrupted Devi. This time it was Pyro who came in. He made a face at Sora and Devi.

"Instead of flirting with each other, I think you guys should get ready for DiZ."

"He's not even here yet!" retorted Devi.

"Right... You're kind of late, Devi."

"OH!" exclaimed Devi. "Hurry, Sora! Put this over your head—"

"Wha—hey, I can do it myself, Devi—Ack! My head get through!"

"Sora!"

And all the while, Pyro was chuckling at how Sora struggled with the tight fitting robe to go over his many brown spikes. After a moment or two, Sora was making sure the robe was long enough for him; they hid his bare feet.

"I need shoes..." said Sora nervously. With another wave, Devi had a pair of plain black shoes in her hands.

"Here..." said Devi. "Come on!"

Pyro, Devi, and Sora (who was trying to both put on his shoes and run simultaneously) ran down the hall to another room that Sora had never been to. It was dark, only lit by a small blue light that was floating in midair. They were not alone.

Kakyo, Lucifer, and Star, who looked very grave, were already in there with another unknown person. He was wearing what seemed to be red bandages with one amber eye showing on his face and a red robe to match. He was staring at Sora.

"So this must be Sora..." the man's lips seemed to move under the bandages. Sora gulped.

This man seemed to have an evil yet no aura at all... He must be DiZ, thought Sora.

"Y-yes..." whispered Sora slowly. "I'm Sora."

"Ah...I knew since your guardian began following me after I retrieved something earlier this morning..."

"Shi!"

"Yes..." DiZ moved to the side to reveal Shi standing there, trembling. But when he saw his Master, Shi quickly went to Sora's opened arms. DiZ narrowed his eye at the sight.

"DiZ," came Lucifer's icy voice. "What were you retrieving?"

DiZ turned to now face Lucifer. "I think we need to go somewhere else to see..." DiZ turned to look at the now expanding in size blue light. He touched it with a gloved finger; it opened to reveal another light to emerge from it. It seemed to be a portal.

Shi cowered behind Sora at the light. Sora looked down and smiled.

"Shi...you don't have to come."

The Shadow blinked its amber eyes and nodded slowly. It knew it didn't want to go in that portal, again. Sora turned his head in time to see DiZ already walking up to the portal to walk in. Sora hurried over to Lucifer's side; the brunette saw Lucifer twitch by his side.

The others followed DiZ as he stepped through the opening. But they weren't going to another dark room. A large white door with many silver designs stood before them. Sora ran up to DiZ's side, as if he was supposed to without being told.

"This will be quite a shock to you, Sora..." said DiZ in a very quiet voice. "Do not get too angry at the Keyblade Master."

Angry, thought Sora. Angry at Riku? But for what...how can I get angrier than I am now?

Sora's inside did a horrible somersault. DiZ pushed the door open and he and everyone else entered.

The room was contrary to the other rooms Sora had been to. It was all pearly white; the floor, the ceiling, and the walls. The same silver designs on the door were inscribed on the walls, making the room seem ethereal. The room was bare, only with a lone white bed lay in the middle of the room.

A bloodied, battered body lay atop of the white sheets...

Sora went frozen, his eyes wide.

It couldn't be, but it was...
