Me: I just realized it but kingdom Hearts and Star Wars don't have much in common. Just wait till Christmas you'll see.
Sora:…;not convinced:
Me: um, anyway enough talk and READ!!
KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
Sora and company decided they had had enough for the day and wanted to return up to bed. Riku, Kairi, and Yuffie were engaged in a conversation as they made their way to the staircase. All three had gone through at least 6 cherry sodas and Riku ended up paying the bill( "I only had like..2!! You girls better pay me back!!") Sora on the other hand didn't have a thing and walked along in silence behind the others. Ever sense he arrived he had been having a good time…but now he wasn't so sure if he was telling himself the complete truth.
'…I feel happy.' He thought to himself as he walked up the giant staircase. 'I like seeing all my friends again. But….……hmm.' He slowly turned around when he realized his friend weren't fallowing him and found that all three were completely astounded with this freaky guy who was pouring tea from his hat, down his coat sleeve and into a tea cup. The brunette raised an eyebrow and turned back around heading up into the darkness of the stairs. Despite the cheeriness that had welcomed him in the main hall, the hallways making the many floors above, were dark and dreary lit by nothing but candles.
'….I kind of like it.' Sora thought to himself as he made his way further up to the 6th floor. The clink of his necklace as he walked echoed against the walls vibrating in his ears. Everytime he passed a candle that was tucked safely in a small grove in the wall, he would shut his eyes to keep it from blinding him. It was always the same. If their was ever even the smallest light in the darkness, it would hurt him.
As he began to realize what he had just thought, the brunette stopped in his tracks and sighed letting the darkness of the hallway wash over him. He hated himself. Hated every single part of him and what visions his mind created. Why hadn't everything gone back to normal yet? Was he just supposed to suffer and wait!?
Frustrated, Sora kicked his foot against the wall causing the remaining candle to flicker and die out. At once, coldness and darkness enveloped every inch of the keybearer and he sunk to his knees in shock. Everything was spinning. Memories and images flashed through his mind. Darkness enveloped with pain, Coldness fallowed by death.
He was on the verge of blacking out, when suddenly a hand grabbed him by his shoulders and he felt himself being shaken by a pair of ruff hands.
'Sora? Sora!?"
"….Wh…wha?"
"Snap out of it kid. Jeez."
Light came flooding in from the wall in front of him making Sora squint his eyes in pain. The outline of a familiar face became clear to his vision and he suddenly felt himself being hoisted up to his feet.
"Leon?"
"In the flesh. Now come in here before someone runs over you."
The light became brighter as he was led into what he predicted was Leon's room and felt himself being seated down on a plushie surface. As if by a miracle, the over head lights suddenly dimmed allowing his eyes to adjust and he found himself face to face with Cloud and Leon.
"Hey." Cloud held up his hand in greeting smirking and Sora nodded avoiding Leon's gaze. The questions were going to come sooner or later.
"Well then Sora let me take a look at you." The gunner asked. The question caught the brunette off guard a bit, and he slowly stood up watching Leon's face as he scanned him up and down. His two friends had changed also.
Leon looked older. Older then he should look but not old enough to compare to Cid ( not even close thank god.) he had on his usual black leather pants and a blue shirt and black jacket similar to Sora's outfit. Cloud on the other hand, had on baggy ripped jeans and a gray short sleeve shirt which seemed a bit too normal for him.
'Heh…probably trying to avoid the fan girls.' he thought smirking.
"Well kid, I must say you've grown up." Leon told him. "Your probably a ladies man like Cloud over their. Took awhile to shake the maids off him when he arrived."
"Can it." Cloud muttered glaring at him menacingly. Sora laughed and sat back down avoiding Leon's gaze which had turned to worry. Anything to avoid being questioned.
"So where have you guys been?" Sora asked. "I haven't seen any of you downstairs."
Cloud muttered something under his breath which sounded a lot like "Damn maids…" causing Leon to chuckle slightly. "We attract to much attention. Besides that kid Yoshi keeps bugging us to get rid of Yuffie but we kind of don't care."
"..Why?"
"Rather him then us." he said with a playful grin. Sora grinned back and slowly stood up glancing toward the door.
" I gotta get back to my room before the others worry." he told them.
Cloud nodded and opened up the door while Leon fallowed Sora out.
"Which rooms yours kid?"
'Um.." Sora scanned each door. "I think the one right across from here."
Leon nodded. "Alright. I'll see you in the morning. And no sneaking off anywhere. This place isn't all its cracked up to be at night."
Unfortunately this caught Sora's attention and he turned to face his friend. "How do you know?"
"..Personally experience. Now go to sleep." And with that, he shut the door on him.
Sora sighed and turned back around opening his room door with a click. If he were in his usual condition he would of wondered straight out down the hallway to explore. But exhaustion had taken over him and without even thinking he plopped down on his bed and closed his eyes. He knew he would regret sleeping in his clothes in the morning but he only managed to take off his shoes before he fell asleep on the plushie surface. The shine of the moon and the falling snow danced across his pale face from the balcony window making him look like an angel. But the darkness within would keep fighting. Until that angels wings turned black.
KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
Kairi and the others had returned to their rooms in due time. They assumed Sora had returned to his room already causing less worry as Yuffie ran straight into her room and shut and locked the door as soon as she seen it. Kairi fallowed suit, do to the fact the tea the Mad Hatter had given Riku was spiked with some weird sort of sugar and he was practically singing his lungs out down the hallway.
"GO TO BED RIKU!!!" Kairi screamed as she plugged her ears.
"OH HOLY NIGHT!! THE STARS ARE BRIGHTLY SSHHIINNNINNGG!!!!"
Kairi double locked her door and let out a sigh of frustration. Sora was one thing but Riku high on sugar?…not safe.
The brunette began searching for he pajamas when she found all of her clothes had been hung up neatly in her closet. She smiled and took out a pair of purple silk pajamas and slid her skirt and top off. Personally she didn't like staying in a room by herself when their actually could be secret passage ways. But it was classy.
As she pulled on her pants and began buttoning up her shirt, the sound of a door being swung open met her ears an she looked out her balcony window to find Riku on his own balcony next to hers singing at the top of his lungs once again.
"DDEEECCCK!! THE HALL WITH BAALLSS OF HOLLY!!! FALALALAALALA-"
"RIKU WILL YOU SHUT UP!!!!"
The teen stopped and looked at her as if she had asked him to jump of the balcony which by now seemed like a good idea to her.
"Your no fun Kairi."
"By now I don't care, just GO TO BED!!"
But as soon as the words had left her mouth he started up again louder and more off key then before. Kairi plugged her ears with Flames of rage in her eyes. This was really starting to tick her off.
"TIISS THE SEASON TO BBBEEEE JOLLY!!! FALALALAALAL-"
Suddenly off in the distance of the hallway their came a scream of rage and the sound of heavy footsteps. Kairi quickly walked to her door and unlocked the top so she could peak out. The door of Yuffie's room came flying open and their the ninja stood. A look of pure rage and annoyance written across her face. In her hand she held a giant mallet about the size of Kairi's head and she strolled steadily and casually over to Riku's door.
"Crap…"
Kairi quickly shut and relocked her own before running back to her window and staring at her psycho singing friend.
"RIKU!!!WATCH OUT!!"
" DAWN WE NOW OUR GGAAAAYYY APPARREL!!! FALALAL!!FALALALALAAAAAAAA-"
WWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMM!!!!!
The mallet hit dead center on top of Riku's head and the boy slumped over like a rag doll. Without even a glance toward Kairi, Yuffie dragged Riku into the darkness of his guest room and shut and locked the balcony doors.
All became quiet as the brunette herd Riku's door open and shut fallowed by the trudge of Yuffie's feet. She held her breath the whole time as if willing not to be found by the crazed ninja. Two knocks at her door made her jump.
"EEP!"
Slowly Kairi made her way back to her door, unlocked it, and peaked out to find herself face to face with a pair of blood-shot pissed off eyes attached to 5 ½ feet of female ninja.
"Y-yes Yuffie?"
"May a barrow an extra pillow?" She asked in a plain yet threatening tone. Kairi nodded and quickly grabbed one from her bed and handed it to her. "H-here."
Yuffie just nodded before turning back around and trudging zombie like into her room.
Kairi shut and relocked the door for the 4th time before snuggling up in her bed and clicking off the lights. She had just had a rare encounter that perhaps even Leon never even experienced. Yuffie had a dangerous side. Zombie like at the most.
"Never piss of a tired ninja." Kairi muttered laying down on her pillow. "Lesson learned."
KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKkk
