A/N:
XCX: Hello again everybody! I'm not dead! XD … Well, since I FINALLY wrote out a second chapter to the original Oneshot "Here with me", most of my writer's block has really disappeared! Yeeeeessssss! X3 –starts dancing-
I went back and fixed/re-edited/re-wrote some of Chapters 10 and 11. I hope these are a lot better and I'm sorry for the crummy-ness before… Eh heh. I swear! It was that damn lemon for "Here with me"!
Jin: Wasn't that supposed to be a ONEshot?
XCX: Ruin my happy moment why don'tcha! –pouts- Okay… Well… "Here with me" was originally and should have stayed a oneshot… but I had this idea for another Riku and Sora lemon that I had just HAD to write out. If I usually don't get things written down after the idea comes, I either forget it, or it plagues me with writer's block. I am proud that it turned out alright, though.
Jin: Didn't you kick the thing?
XCX: Eh… yeah… Just an overview of this chapter, it really gives you an idea of what Sora, Riku, and Jin feeling and after I re-read this, I felt kinda bad for putting my three little cuties through all this.
Jin: You think I'm cute?
XCX: Shush! I'm also sorry I made some of you guys cry in the last chapter… I made it a little to dramatic though… I really went and started to bang my head against the wall for the sheer drama of it.
Read on and live for the thrill of life.
(Jin: No, seriously, you think I'm cute?)
A NOTE TO ALL!
I MAY NOT UPDATE THAT OFTEN ANYMORE, AND TO BE HONEST, I'VE KINDA LOST A BIT OF INTEREST IN THIS FIC, BUT I PROMISE I WILL FINISH THIS FIC. NO MATTER WHAT, AND I WILL DO MY BEST TO MAKE IT ENJOYABLE.
Disclaimer: If I owned Kingdom Hearts or Final Fantasy… many female characters would cease to exist. Mwahahahahahaha… Long live yaoi pairings! X3
Chapter 12He was plunged into darkness.
Sora fell into the endless abyss, his body and mind feeling numbed from the cold, bitter emotions that swirled around and in him.
'Did I really loose?' Sora asked himself, his eyes gazing ahead distantly.
'…Jin is gone…'
Sora closed his eyes, shuddering at the feeling of being alone and forgotten.
It stung like salt on a wound.
And it was all his fault.
Jin was gone…
-"Nothing can bring back a Heartless."-
'Funny… 'Sora laughed softly, sadly. 'To me… he never was a Heartless…' The laugh turned bitter. 'But I guess… it doesn't matter… not anymore.'
OoOoOoOoOoORiku stared, his back aching, but he made no means to rise. The Keyblade resting in his palm limply, his eyes staring at the door.
He had won… but he had only caused Sora even more pain.
He had never liked Jin. Not from the first time he had seen the elder teen, to the time he had watched him kiss Sora, or to when they had disappeared in Traverse Town only hours before.
Never.
But… Sora had.
And, in a way, he now understood.
All this time, Sora had been leaning on Jin, his confidence no longer came from anything else and without Jin, and the boy was slowly falling apart.
Riku had seen this in Traverse Town.
Sora had been so blank because his memory of Jin was blank.
He had run because he was scared.
Jin was no longer there.
He had nothing to hide behind, to lean, or depend on.
Sora was alone and slowly crumbling under the weight of too many emotions. The boy wasn't used to feeling so many harsh and cruel emotions at once, and his heart was fragile, though he never showed it that often.
And Riku was the cause of that.
His eyes were still locked with the door Sora had fled though, but his green orbs were full of emotion.
Determination, shining the brightest.
Riku would heal the pain he had caused Sora.
He would release the brunet.
And, hopefully, hold him again.
But first… He'd deal with Maleficent.
OoOoOoOoOoOSora felt as though he would never stop falling, and, frankly, some part of him didn't mind.
He had nothing now.
"What are you doing?"
Sora opened his eyes, surprised to see Selphie standing in front of him.
"Wha-?"
"I said: 'What are you doing!' You can't give up Sora!" She cried, putting her hands on her tiny hips and fixing him with a glare.
"Why not?" He said dully turning away from the brunette.
"Because! Who else is gonna save us?" He pouted, folding her arms and stomping her foot.
"Us?" He looked back, watching Selphie with dull surprise.
"Tidus and Wakka are still out there, too! We're waiting for you and Riku to pull through for us!" She emphasized on the words 'you and Riku'.
When Sora turned away again, Selphie gave an exasperated sigh and stomped over, grabbing his chin and turning his face toward her, her customarily cheerful eyes full of determination.
"Sora, no one else can help us! Don't you want to go back to the islands? Don't you want to see your mom and dad again? Don't you want things to go back to the way they were!" She half-shouted, stomping her foot again to emphasize her point.
"I wish I could…"
"Then stop wishin' and make it happen! Some one still loves you, but you're too wrapped up in yourself to accept it!"
"Who?"
She opened her mouth to reply, but no sound came out. She blinked and tried again, her face portraying anger and frustration.
Sora, too, was about to say something, but the girl faded away, the darkness enveloping her body while she, obliviously, continued to try and say something.
"That's enough of that…" Ansem said; waving a hand in the general direction Selphie had vanished into.
"What'd you do to her!" Sora growled, his monotonous attitude now forgotten.
"Just shutting a mouth before something flies in it." He smiled, his amber eyes showing a sense of forlorn hate for the noisy girl.
"Bullshit! Tell me what's going on!" Sora snarled, close to jumping Ansem and beating him mercilessly, settling for clenching and unclenching his hands.
"Do you really wish to know?" Ansem said, his tone carrying a light interest.
"Tell me!"
"As you wish…" Ansem seemed to sneer the last part.
Sora then found himself pressed into something that felt like a wall, but barely registered this, what with Ansem's lips pressed to his in a violent, and heated kiss.
OoOoOoOoOoOJin closed his eyes calmly, his strong arms wrapped around himself protectively.
Where was he?
He was so used to the darkness, but then… why was this darkness so different?
The usual darkness that had always greeted him was now cold and uncomfortable with his presence. To him, it was as though he was a puzzle piece against so many others. A puzzle piece from a completely different puzzle. One that looked like he should fit, but never would.
Never could.
The darkness was void of any life, by his standards of sight, but he could feel something around him, a presence of some sort.
Jin tried to remember any other time he had felt this overwhelming sadness, this feeling of being completely and utterly alone, but nothing came up, he couldn't even remember anything beyond his love for Sora.
Sora…
'I… I couldn't protect him. I lost.'
'…You would never have won…'
'And now… I'm stuck in Oblivion. I'm dead.'
'…You were never alive…'
'I'm worthless.'
'…Precisely…'
OoOoOoOoOoOSora brought his hands up, fisting them on the front of Ansem's vest (A/N: It is a vest… right?) and pushed the silver-haired man away, beginning the task of rubbing at his lips with utter repugnance.
"What the hell?"
He turned around, glaring daggers at Ansem, who seemed unfazed at all by the kiss, content with merely watching him.
"You fell in love with Jin…"
"What does that have to do with why YOU kissed me?" Sora spat, literally doing that soon after finishing.
"Answer the question boy." He demanded, folding his arms.
"Yeah. So?"
"In other words… you fell in love with me."
Huh?
"What?" Sora asked, disbelievingly. "What the hell are you talking about now?
"Would you believe that, the Heartless you fell in love with, is merely a shell of my past emotions?" A sick smile crept onto Ansem's thin face. "I cast such things off after joining the darkness… and, for once, those retched emotions were of use."
Sora stared incredulously, transfixed.
"What about his appearance?" He reprimanded, feeling only the slightest bit braver.
"Think you've figured me out? That I'm lying?" He laughed. "Such things are easily changed by the darkness. Would you like for me to show you?" Another wicked smile was planted on his tanned face, his eyes piercing through to Sora's very core.
Sora watched, mesmerized, while Ansem raised his hand, blasting, what looked like to Sora, a large amount of darkness into the floor, the darkness rippling like black water, reminding Sora of an oil spill.
The darkness pooled around the rest, golden eyes forming and rising up in a tall lump, slowly forming into a humanoid like form.
A bare chest formed, then the legs and the arms, finally the head. The was a flash, and Sora had to cover his eyes in order to see, but when he was able to see again he saw that the tanned man had created an exact replica of himself; color and all.
"So what? It's you?" Sora snapped.
"Watch my dear boy…"
Sora turned away from Ansem -despite the feeling of wanting to strangle the man for calling him 'dear'- to watch the darkness moving again, it's form shrinking a bit, his hair twisting to a long braid, turning green from the roots and sliding down to the tips. His bangs grew to the side and covered his left eye, a scar forming across the left while the other orb turned purple. His skin grew pale and he turned slightly thinner and then, Sora was staring at Jin himself.
"See? Darkness can reshape anything I wish to change. Even you."
Sora shook his head, backing away.
"Jin isn't anymore than a copy of me and how foolish I used to be."
"No… NO!" Sora shook his head again, stumbling and falling to the ground, holding himself tightly.
"You fell in love with a ghost, a dream; call it what you will, he's gone. Forever!"
Ansem began laughing, spreading his arms wide, his head thrown back and twisted laughter spilling from his lips. Sora's eyes watered, he stared at the copy, jumping back a good three feet when it stepped toward him.
"Sora?"
His voice was the same…
"Sora? Are you alright?" He sounded sincere, nevertheless, Sora now knew better.
"Stay away…"
"Sora?"
"No…"
"Don't worry… I'm here."
"DON'T TOUCH ME!"
His fright reaching its limit, Sora turned and ran into the darkness, trying desperately to get away from the two halves of a madman.
OoOoOoOoOoOIt was so easy.
Too easy.
Planting the seeds of darkness in the right emotions contained in a Heart, and eventually, that emotion will bloom with the darkness and eventually shatter to pieces, leaving the body to be used as more as fertilizer for the growing flower.
The Keyblade masters were no different.
They would claim to have strong hearts; that they could never, would never, be afraid of the darkness.
A joke.
Ansem let the last of his laughs die down, as he watched Sora run from him and his copy, his golden eyes gleaming at the boy's fright.
And this one… was afraid, so very afraid.
He watched as the boy fell, almost in slow motion, and he instantly shot forward, catching the boy before he could hit the cold ground.
Sora was breathing heavily, his eyes glazed over and a thin sheen of sweat covering his brow.
"No… no… don't touch me." He shrieked, flinging himself from Ansem.
"Deny it all you want boy, what you fell in love with was only a fraction of me. Nothing can change that."
"No… Jin's-Jin's dif-"
"If, by different, you mean: 'Nothing like me'. You're right, but it doesn't change that fact that he IS a part of me!" Ansem smiled, licking his lips, leaning down and grabbing Sora's wrists, pushing the boy's smaller body beneath him and pinning the boy to the floor, kissing him madly.
"N-no… let me go! Don't touch me! JIN!" Sora began crying again, struggling against Ansem's strong grip.
But all was in vain as Ansem slipped his shirt from his body.
(A/N: Sorry peeps, but I will not write a rape scene… I don't think I'm ready for that one yet… don't ask either… it's not on any of my accounts, so don't go searching!)OoOoOoOoOoO
Was it the sting of defeat that hurt more, or was it the pain from his helplessness?
'It doesn't matter… you're nothing. You never were.'
"Who are you!" Jin shouted, clenching his fists and yelling into the cold darkness. "Come out and face me!"
'Still arrogant and foolish as ever… it's a wonder that Sora fell in love with you…'"Shut up…" Jin growled, his pride taking the blow to heart.
'And now, because of you, he will loose his heart along with the Keyblade master.'
Jin gasped, the intake of cold air in his warm body suddenly sending him into a coughing fit.
"Wha-?"
'The boy will be joining you soon.' The voice sneered, taunting him from the very shadows around him.
"No. Leave him alone! Don't touch him!"
"You're too late… 'Jin'."
Jin turned on the spot, facing-
An exact copy of himself.
He was in the same cloak. Same hair. Same frame. Same face.
"W…what?"
"After you took Sora's body, darkness slipped into him without either of your knowledge. And now… Lord Ansem controls him." The copy sneered, waving his gloved hand at him, like he was talking to a child.
This couldn't be happening.
It had to be a bad dream.
"Oh, but it's so very real."
"Stay the hell away from him!"
"To late. He's been claimed once more."
Jin let out a loud scream, rushing forward and grabbing the front of his copy's throat, the being showing no sign that caused him discomfort.
"Tell me how to get out of here! Tell me!"
"You can't. You're stuck here. Forever."
Jin's hands slid away from the copy's throat when he felt small, clawed-hands grabbing his own clothes, pulling him downwards and into the pooling darkness.
Jin could only thrash about, pulling at his dark binds helplessly, trying to grasp anything, something… He watched, with wide eyes, as he slowly sunk into the darkness's black, inky depths, his body feeling utterly numb from the assault the shadows were blowing upon his body.
The copy above him smiled, a warm and sincere smile Jin never thought he could smile.
"Good-bye… and good riddance."
OoOoOoOoOoORiku climbed the steps to the Keyhole, holding the Keyblade tightly, his eyes set on the Keyhole in front of him.
He couldn't contain his excitement and nervousness any longer.
He rushed forward, Goofy and Donald behind him as he continued to run up the remaining steps, eager to find Sora.
But the boy wasn't there.
Instead he was greeted by Kairi's limp form, sitting there against a small panel, lifelessly.
Sora was momentarily forgotten, as he rushed forward and kneeled before the girl, Donald and Goofy landing somewhere outside the area without notice.
"Kairi? Kairi!" He shook he slightly, worry shooting through him when she didn't move."It's no use… she's lost her heart."
Riku stayed where he was, already knowing who was behind him.
"What will you do now? You've lost your princess and your angel…""What have you done with him?"
"Pardon?""What've you done with Sora?"
Sora laughed, his head thrown back as he sat on top of the Keyhole entrance, a black and red blade in hand.
"He's on his way to Oblivion as we speak. Soon, he'll be encased in so much darkness, that not even the Keyblade and unlock it!"
Sora jumped down, landing on his feet with feline-like grace and walking towards Riku's still unguarded back.
"And you… my arrogant Keyblade master, will be joining him soon enough!"
Sora slung his Keyblade down, missing Riku's head by mere inches when the silver-haired youth brought up the Keyblade, blocking the firsts.
"You give Kairi her heart back… and give me Sora!" Riku screamed, jumping up and trying to land a hit on Sora.
No… it wasn't Sora.
"Who the hell are you?"
"Does it matter?""I'd like to know the name of the guy who's behind all this." Riku snapped, adding more pressure on the blade and causing 'Sora' to wince slightly as he was pushed lower.
"Ansem."
Riku panted heavily, jumping up and landing another hit to Sora/Ansem's weakening body.
Surprisingly, Ansem wasn't proving to difficult, but there were times when he would race around the ring, landing blow after blow upon his own battered body, though they were never deep.
To Riku, it was a lot easier fighting Ansem than it was the actual Sora.
The fight didn't last long.
Soon, Riku had landed a fatal blow on the beaten body, knocking the Keyblade from their grasp, and knocking Sora's body to the floor.
"I'll ask again: What've you done with the real Sora?" Riku scowled, slowly approaching the battered body until he no more than three feet away.
"H-He's gone, he'll be lost to Oblivion soon enough." Sora was panting heavily, a trickle of blood flowing from his chest and forehead.
Sora's eyes glazed over, and for a minute, Riku could see helpless eyes, staring at him pleadingly.
"Run away, Riku… he'll get you, too…" He could hear his voice clearly, but it wasn't out loud, it was more like it had come from inside of his head, but his expression remained neutral."Give him back! Give him back right now or I'll kill you on the spot."
"Heh, and why should I? He's half dead! I've taken his body, his spirit, and soon, he'll be nothing but a memory to those who knew him as the brat he is!"
Riku's eyes became hard.
"Don't you dare talk about Sora that way!"
And with one final blow to the small body, it was over.OoOoOoOoOoO
It hurt.
It hurt so much.
God, why couldn't he just die?
Sora lay on the dark cold ground, nude and staring at the non-existent ceiling above.
Ansem had done what he had pleased with him, over…and over… and over… and over… and… over…
Sora could feel the sensation to cry overwhelming him, but he had shed his tears, there was nothing left to cry about. He closed his eyes, letting all the emotions overwhelming, racking his body with sobs that he could no longer cry.
Jin was gone.
He was now Ansem's fuck toy.
And Riku…
Oh god…
-"Once I've finished with him, Riku shall be joining you and Jin in Oblivion…"-
Those words… Ansem had told him while he had been-
'No… this can't be happening.'
"Little master?"
Sora's eyes snapped open and shot up, looking for the source of the small, whispery voice.
"Little master okay?"
Then, he saw it.
Two small beady yellow eyes stared up at him, the little Shadow clutching a bundle close to his cmall chest.
"What do you want? I've already lost my heart… I've got nothing you want." He spat, turning around and staring into the darkness.
"No… not want little master's heart… want… to help." The shadow implored, stepping around Sora's huddled figure and holding up the bundle. "Little master's heart still there…"
"No! No it's not!" Sora shrieked, whacking the bundle from the Shadow's hands. He looked at the Shadow, wide-eyed when he saw a flash of pain in its yellow orbs, before he looked away and at the clothes, littering the ground.
He turned away, holding his small frame tighter and his tone dropping, "I lost it… too many times." He ground out.
"Little master shouldn't say such things…" The Shadow whispered, gathering up the clothes "He might-"
Cold-no… freezing metal encased his wrists and neck, scaring Sora out of his stupor.
"-go to Oblivion."
Sora's blue eyes snapped to the shadow, portraying anger as he tried to lash out at its small frame, the chains clanking with every movement and holding him in place.
The Shadow merely stood there, unblinking.
Sora felt something cold creeping down his right arm. He tilted his head, raising his arm to look at it.
He knew he should have felt scared, frightened, or… maybe terrified, but, truth be told, he felt… relieved.
It was as if someone had poor a container of ink over his hand, as he watched the inky blackness ooze over his arm, almost reaching his wrist. There was a sensation like the back of his hand was sizzling, and, when he turned it over to look at it, he could see the Heartless symbol, burning itself to his new flesh.
It was proof.
He was a Heartless.
Riku had been right he was as bad as the shadows… it was only fair that he became one…
Sora gave up, letting his hands droop to his side as he, once again, huddled himself close.
No one else would hold him now…
"Little master still has his heart… Little mass-S-Sora… still has a heart……… ya?"
Sora's head shot up and he whirled around, looking into the yellow eyes of the shadow.
"W-what?"
"You… still have a heart……… Sora…"
'Wakka?'
"Wakka?"
The Shadow nodded, and, for a split second, Sora could see the redhead, grinning at him.
The chains loosed, and Sora relaxed, reaching toward the small Heartless, the small creature hobbling toward him.
He had to help Wakka…
When Wakka had scurried close enough, Sora picked him up, holding him close.
"I'm sorry… it's my fault. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry…" He repeated, clutching the small form close.
"It's… not your fault."
'It never was…Sora'
Sora's eyes were clenched tightly shut, but he could feel the change in Wakka. How the small cold form, grew, some warmth returning to the body.
Sora continued to sob as Wakka's arms came around him slowly, holding him like an older brother protecting his younger from a raging storm.
"It was never your fault…"
Sora sat there on the floor, the chains still wrapped around his wrists and neck loosly.
Wakka had left, hoping to find a way to remove the chains, though Sora doubted that anything would help. There was nothing but darkness and it was darkness that was holding him captive.
"I'll ask again: What've you done with the real Sora?"
'Riku?'Slowly rising, Sora looked around searching for the source of the voice.
"H-He's gone, he'll be lost to Oblivion soon enough."
'Ansem.'
Their voices, they were all around him.
Closing his eyes, Sora could see the vague picture of Riku and Ansem standing there.
Or, more like Riku and him.
Apparently, after raping him, Ansem had taken control, using his body like a puppet; and right now, he was bleeding, badly, his posture staggering and his sword laying to the side somewhere to the side.
'Run away, Riku… he'll get you, too…'"Give him back! Give him back right now or I'll kill you on the spot."
'I'm half dead anyways.' Sora could hear Ansem's thought cut across the darkness, a feeling of dread and anger curled around it.
"Heh, and why should I? He's half dead! I've taken his body, his spirit, and soon, he'll be nothing but a memory to those who knew him as the brat he is!"
"Don't you dare talk about Sora that way!"
Sora could hear the anger in Riku's voice… and, he could almost feel the emotions swirling around inside the elder teen's body.
"Sora…"
Sora turned around, his eyes landing on an almost transparent figure of Kairi.
"Kai… Kairi?" Sora's eyes softened, and he lowered his head, not even daring to look the little redhead in the eye.
He had hurt her… slapped her back on Destiny Islands, insulted her in the Coliseum; he had no right to look at her.
"Sora… look at me." Her voice was neither harsh, nor to soft, it was almost like a mother telling her child that he had done nothing wrong, but wanted to make sure of something.
Sora shook his head, not thinking he had the courage to look her in the eye.
"Sora…"
"Ow!" Sora jumped when he felt his being pinched by the girl. His head instantly shot up and scowled, but when he realized he was looking at her, he began to turn away.
"Oh, no you don't." Kairi said, grabbing his chin and turning him toward her. "Listen Sora!" She pleaded, trying to turn his eyes toward her.
"I don't belong with Riku! You do!"
This caught his attention.
"What are you talking about Kairi? I don't belong with him… I've caused him to much pain…" Sora held up his right arm, showing the darkness that was slowly consuming it. It was now at his shoulder.
"Sora, you'll only disappear if you believe you belong to the darkness. There's a light in you- it's faint, but it's there." She said, her voice holding a sense of urgency to it.
The ground below them suddenly gave a jolt, but Kairi didn't seem to be affected by it, where as Sora stumbled, almost falling, the chains rattling with his every movement.
"You have to stop trusting in the darkness Sora, you're Riku's light!"
She reached down and grabbed his darkened arm, pulling him to his feet.
"You don't need anything but your Heart."
"I have no need for a Heart! I'm a Heartless!" Sora shouted back.
Kairi only smiled and shook her head, pointing down to his arm.
Looking down, Sora saw that the Heartless' mark had disappeared, and his arm was returning to normal.
"Help Riku, Sora!" Kairi called, her form fading out completely.
Sora tried to call out, but a sudden gust of wind stopped him and he was shot forward, spat back into the real world.
OoO End Chapter OoOXCX: -dies- There! I hope you're happy! This chapter took exactly five days and four hours to right because I had to change stuff and it was a while before I finally knew what to write for this chapter anyways! Argh!
In other news… me and my friend buried her hamster today! His name was Milo and he was two years over the freakin' expiration date! He is now buried in the park just down the hill from where I live.
He died on April 19th, 2005 and my friend preserved him by wrapping him in saran wrap, put him in a shoe box, wrapped that in duck tape and saran wrap as well and then put him in her closet since her dad wouldn't let her keep him in the freezer.
Jin: You buried a hamster?
XCX: Yup! But there was this old lady with her grandkids, asking us what was in the box and what we were going to set free.
(Lady: What are you going to set free?
XCX: Lady, you don't wanna know.
Lady: Is it a bird?
XCX: Lady. You don't wanna know.
Lady: Is it a mouse?
XCX: LADY! YOU. DON'T. WANT. TO. KNOW!)
XCX: The old bat wouldn't leave me alone when I was looking for a rock to be the tombstone… couldn't find one anyways. Did the old crone think we were playing twenty questions? ARGH!

Korbin: I know what you mean my friend. Yes, I e-mail, and I haven't heard from you in a while… TT.TT –sniff sniff-
KairiQueen: Ah! Don't skip dinner! I would kill to eat a good meal at times! Haha… I don't think I did so well on the lemon scenes… sorry… I know this sounds dumb, but my brain isn't working today… but… what's a Gary-Stu? .
crystaladept: How dare I? He's my character and I'll kill him how I want! HA! Sorry… had to say that… in one sitting, man, I wish I had that much time… TT.TT (yeah, I know I misspelled a bunch of crap… please, ignore the shitty spelling!)
Fire: Best? Wow… Thank you for mentioning it to a friend. I wuv youuuuu! XD Sorry for killing him, but it was either him or Sora… Yeah… I know about the grammer problems… sorry, but I already have a beta and a back-up beta. hide-san and Ariel!
Loki: I know you're not stupid, I just wanted to point that out for the heck off it. X3 Yeah… a threesome really wouldn't have worked… 'specially not now… Thanks for your support, didn't mean to annoy you! Please! Accepted my deepest apologies that run as deep as my ice cream bowl! (That's pretty deep! I wuv strawberry ice cream! XD)
Katarina: If you look in my profile, I have a link to my web page. If you look at my profile there, it should give you the link to my FanArtCentral profile.
UnfaithfulGypsy: Yup. Jin's dead. Hey? Where'd you get that plushie? You haven't reviewd before! (Jin: -Cough, cough- wasn't cough- me…………)
Sharon: Jin very deadness-ness-ness…… I thought about dark Sora, but since Sora's been sticking to the darkness all along, I may not put him in… I'll sleep on that one… Wakka finally showed up, and Tidus should be appearing (hopefully) in the next chapter or the one after that. But Selphie's not evil, actually the opposite, her heart was just taken, but she's behind Sora all the way.
End
XCX: There! Dat's all of them! –dies (again)- I actually finally sat down and did this chapter, because I had a feeling if I didn't get it done soon, I may loose interest completely… and that, my friends, would be bad. Also, if I didn't finish it soon, I'd NEVER post it… and that, my lovely reviewers and readers, is bad.
