Haunted

Sora sat in the small plastic white room. Wearing nothing but a pair of white slacks. He let out a sigh and heard a buzzing sound.

"Sora…do you think you can handle visitors?"

"yes…"

"There is a girl here to see you.."

Sora jumped up and ran to the now opening door. He hugged kairi tightly as she stepped through the open open door.

"I've missed you to Sora…."

"Kairi…I am so glad to see you…."

No you aren't……you hate her……stop lying!

"SHUT UP! LEAVE ME ALONE!" He yelled and dropped to the floor. Kairi ran and sat next to him, her hand on his shoulder.

"It's ok Sora….it's ok…"

Tears streamed down Sora's face, she helped him up and led him to the bed. He leaned against the wall, with a small window and bars on it.

"how long?"

"How long what?"

"How long have I been here?"

" About 2 years Sora….."

"Does…."

He looked down and sighed, and that voice came back.

Don't ask it…you know he doesn't…..you know I don't…..I don't miss you…..not in the least…you were nothing to me…why don't you just die Sora….

He covered his ears, feeling Kairi's hand on his shoulder.

"Sora….."

Sora began crying again.

"He wont stop…..make him go away……"

The buzz came again.

"Ms. Kairi, I'm afraid visiting hours are over. I will have to ask you to leave."

Kairi turned to Sora.

"Sora…I have to go…..I'll be back…"

As Kairi stood, Sora grabbed her hand. He smiled back.

"I'm sorry Sora"

She left. That voice came back.

Now Sora….you didn't think she could stay with you did you? Did you think she actually wanted to come here? She wants to forget all about you…she hates you……her parents just make her come here….

"It's not true…..your a liar."

What proof do you have? She didn't stay now did she…..she made you come here…it's all her fault….she hates you.

"NO! she doesn't…she is my best friend….go away."

Riku appeared in front of Sora. (Me: no everyone this isn't the REAL Riku…..I know most of you will think that, and I didn't want to confuse you.)

Do you really want me gone?

Riku now hugged Sora, even though his arms went through Sora's body.

"leave me alone…."

But why? You love me…..you cant live without me….why don't you die…you cant have me….I left you went to punch him, but his hand went through him, Riku grinned, and disappeared.

Long lost words whisper slowly to me
Still can't find what keeps me here
When all this time I've been so hollow inside
I know you're still there

The buzz came again, and Sora looked up at the opening door with red, tear-filled eyes.

"Aw is something wrong dear?"

It was Margaret. She was large, black, and was the only one, besides Kairi, who believed what he said. She helped keep Sora slightly sane by reading his Tarot, or playing a game or two with him. She always smiled at him, and hugged him.

She pulled him up and gave him a warming hug.

"Now Sora…it's time for your medicine. And its cold put a shirt on child."

Sora gave her one of his goofy grins, and grabbed his shirt off of the small bed, throwing it over his head. He reached a hand out, grabbing the water and the little pill. Downing the water and the pill.

"Do you want some company?"

"Sure…."

"Has he been here?"

Sora looked over at her, then down, nodding ever so slightly.

"Look child, send him away. You tell him that if he is gonna keep bothering you, you aren't going to listen."

Sora smiled, she always could do that. She knew he couldn't do that. She sat on a chair next to his bed, pulling over a table, placing her tarot cards down on it. She motioned him over, and he sat in front of the table on his bed. He grabbed the deck, shuffling it, then gave it back to her. As he handed it to her though, a card fell onto the floor, face down.

"Well pick it up. That card has something important to tell you."

As Sora picked up the card, he felt cold. Turning it over, he saw the One of Swords. Margaret gasped and Sora dropped the card.

"That is a bad sign…a bad sign."

She grabbed the card, placing it with the pile, putting it back in her box, picking up the box and walking out the door. She locked it behind her.

Watching me wanting me
I can feel you pull me down
Fearing you loving you
I won't let you pull me down

Sora sat n shock. He didn't know what it meant.

Aww……you wanna know what it means Sora?

"If you REALLY want to tell me….i know you had something to do with it."

Well that hurt……

Sora heard the mock in his voice.

It means, dear Sora, that I control you. I could kill you in a instance.

He felt cold, and his world went dark.

I could get into your mind, into your soul…..into your existence……

"Get out of my head…."

Oh, but it is so fun in here……

"GET OUT!"

Sora's world turned back to normal and he saw Riku, floating right in front of him.

Well now Sora…what an unkind host.

"shut up."

She isn't coming back…..Kairi isn't coming back you know either.

"Yes she is…"

You can say it all you want…but you know that she isn't….you know……you know Riku never loved you……You know I never loved you…you know that Margaret never even liked you……everyone hates you…they all left you…they aren't coming for you…

"Your lying"

Now what would lying do for me?

Sora's eyes went wide, he was right. Where would that get him. He looked down, a tear slipping form his face.

That's right Sora…they aren't coming for you…they never are…they never loved you…no one could love you.

Sora felt the cold slip away, and he curled into a ball around his pillow. Burying his face in the pillow, he cried until he fell to sleep.

As Sora opened his eyes, there was Riku, playing with Sora's not so spiky hair. (Me: That's right; he doesn't have his power thingy so he can't do the gravity spell in reverse. And in a mental hospital they don't give you hair gel, but it still ahs a little natural spike, it's just a little less spiky.) His hands just wandering through it, though it only moved as if it was being blown by the wind. It was cold.

Hunting you I can smell you - alive
Your heart pounding in my head

Sleep well?

Sora didn't answer.

I didn't think so……I've seen inside your dreams…Why don't you just die? It would make the pain go away…

"I can't…..they might come for me."

You know they aren't coming for you.

The buzz came, and the door was opened by Namine. (Me: I probably spelled her name wrong.)

"Well good morning Sora. How are you this morning?"

Sora looked up at her, only blinking. He never talked to anyone but Kairi and Margaret, no one else…..except the one that never visits.

"Well come on….you have a special visitor today…He asked for you to meet him out here. Do you want to?"

Sora stood up. He began thinking. A special visitor? A Man…..maybe his dad, he always asked to see him out of his room.

It isn't…..he came to tell you he hates you….he loathes you….he hates your very existence…

Watching me wanting me
I can feel you pull me down
Saving me raping me
Watching me
