A Different Turn

Chapter IV- Lunar Eclipsed


Riku didn't know how long he sat there as Sora was crying once again in his arms, his body shaking now and again. The silver-haired youth knew he had been there for a while now, since his butt was starting to go numb from sitting on the floor.

But, he didn't mind. He was holding his Light in his arms, and this time he was going to do everything he could for the brunette...and right now all he could do was hold the other in his arms as he greived the passing of Axel.

Riku growled to himself, what did Axel do that made Sora feel so strongly towards him that after his passing filled the brunette with anguish...? Riku's eyes went as wide as dinner plates as he realized that both Axel and Sora had been missing for at least a couple of hours...

Looking down at the brunette who was silently crying now, he brushed the hood of the black Organization coat (why was he wearing that anyway?) gently and his breath got caught in his throat. On Sora's neck with purple blotches, bruises...hickeys. Riku felt as if he swallowed his tongue. But then he noticed something else, burns also accompanied the hickeys on Sora's abused neck.

'Damn bastard had to fucking burn him also!' He thought angrily before he was pretty much startled out of his own thoughts as something warm and soft was placed on his cheek. Looking, he found Sora's tanned hand (Haha a rhyme!) placed on his pallid cheek. Riku had been so wrapped up in his furious thoughts that he had failed to notice that Sora had stopped moving and had pulled away from him. He smiled gently at the brunette, "How're you feeling..?"

Sora just remained that way for a while longer, just staring into Riku's aquamarine eye's, not moving. The former then smiled and removed his hand. "Like hell...but I'll be fine.." he answered softly, sniffling slightly while doing so.

The silver-haired youth smirked at Sora's answer but he felt angry, not at Sora and not even really even Axel, but he felt angry at Roxas. Sora's Nobody was the reason the brunette did what he did with the red-head, but Riku couldn't be mad at Roxas, because Roxas was Sora he would then be mad at Sora himself in a way, an oxymoron if you asked him.

Riku couldn't hold himself back anymore, one second the two of them were just staring at each other in silence, then the next Riku had thrown his arms around Sora and pulled him into a hug, he nuzzled Sora's surprisingly soft spikey tufts of light brown hair. It took a few moments for the shock to wear off, but than Sora also wrapped his arms around the older teen's waist and hugged him and the two sat there, holding each other.

Sora sighed and said softly, "We have to finish off Saïx."

Riku nodded and the two stood up, still holding each other. Riku was reluctant to let the other go, fearing something bad was going to happen and snatch the brunette away again, but slowly, his arms returned to his side as did Sora's.

The said brunette blushed some, "So, uh...what now?"

Riku just chuckled, "Come on..." he said, taking the younger boy's hand and dragging him off through a doorway.


Sora let outa small sigh of relief as the last of the Nobodies were dispatched by Riku's Keyblade, The Way to Dawn. After departing the previous room, the two had been relentlessly attacked by the Nobodie's and surprisingly, no heartless. Now they were making their way through a different part of the castle that none of them knew, but Sora felt as ifhe had been thereand was leading the two-man party toward an invisible destination.

Sora looked over to the older teenager, and made a little movement with his hand, "This way!" he said before spinning on his heel and returned to climbing up the invisible walkway's. The first time he had encountered the mysterious paths, he was positive that he was going to plumet to his death, never in his wildest dreams did he think that he could walk on it until a heartless attacked and he was forced onto the transparent floor.

Riku was a little perturbed at Sora, the brunette seemed to know exactly where he was going without knowing where he was. And Riku knew that Sora had not been there before... Of course! Riku could have hit himself on the head for not thinking about it sooner, of course Sora knew where he was going because of Roxas. The Nobody had lived here after all. Riku mentally hit himself, he had forgot he could sense where the Nobodies were. Duh! 'I'm such an idiot...' He thought to himself, sweatdropping. "Riku, you ok?"

Snapping his head up he came face to face with Sora; sapphire-blue eye's bore into Riku's sea-green. The brunette was looking at him with a concerned expression. Riku chuckled. "Yeah, just thinking." Sora continued to stare at his best friend for a while longer then nodded slowly and than returned to leading the way.

'I wonder if Sora can sense Saïx also..?' He mused, following the object of his affections.


Sora stopped abruptly, causing his taller companion to slam into him from behind, causing him to go crashing to the floor with a 'hmph'. The brunette looked up and glared as Riku was laughing lightly, the latter then offered him his hand, he took it and was off the floor in no time. "Give a little warning next time." He teased. Sora just replied by sticking his tongue out and pouting, he turned away silently and continued walking. "Before you oh so kindly bawled me over, I realized that Saïx is up ahead. Well, sensed.. but..um..yeah.." Sora said, mumbling the last part then putting his arm behind his head and rubbing it sheepishly.

Riku just chuckled at the brunette's antics and followed as the latter continued to lead him toward Saïx, his earlier question had been answered, it appeared Sora could sense the Nobody also. He sighed, he felt as if something bad was going to happen. 'Damn...'

He looked at Sora in front of him and smiled, his vision then focused a little down south where the brunette's ass was, thanks to the coat he was wearing it made it even more pronounced and Riku almost felt his hand straying...nope. He couldn't do it. Yet.

"We're here.." Sora whispered and if Riku wasn't in a room that was pretty much deaf with silence, he wouldn't have heard the brunette utter the words. Riku looked past Sora, who had stopped in front of an open doorway, into the room. This room was pretty much the same asroom in which Riku had found Sora crying in, except everything was reversed, possibly because this was on the other side of the castle.

Riku walked up to the brunette and laid a pale hand on his shoulder, "You ready?"

The said brunette seemed to snap out of a reviere and looked back at his taller companion, he nodded slowly, turned around then crossed the threashold into the room, Riku followed closely behind.

Saïx was in the same position as he had been in with the first two previous encounters. The said Nobody was standing in front of a floor length window that overlooked the moon of Kingdom Hearts. He turned around and grinned at the two, "So glad you could join me again so soon." he greeted in mock kindness.

Riku growled softly, then it grew louder. But it wasn't coming from him, glancing over at Sora he learned that the brunette was the cause for the gutteral noise. The latter was staring at the Nobody dead in the eyes, his hands clenched at his sides and his azure eye's narrowed in anger. Riku was sure that the brunette would reply, but instead- and to his shock- Sora bounded forward with amazing speed, the keyblade appearing in a flash of red then immedietly attacking Saïx with no hesitation what so ever, apparently, Sora was out to kill.

Riku watched stunned as the younger teen continued to attack Saïx relentlessly, he managed to slice a nice cut into the Nobody's shoulder, but he didn't relent, he continued slashing at the Luna Diviner, who gained more gashes. The silver-haired Nobody finally jumped away, and Sora stayed where he was, watching as he took small breaths of air.

Riku quickly ran foward as the shock finally wore off, taking a stance next to the slightly panting brunette, who looked like a rabid dog at the moment. He summoned his own keyblade to hand, and ironicly enough, he found himself admiring it. He mentally shook his head, okaaay. That was weird. Returning his sea-green eye's toward Saïx yellow one's, he saw that the Luna Diviner had summoned his respective weapon and was now staring at Sora with an unknown emotion. Riku put himself in front of the brunette and shifted himself into a fighting stance. Whatever Saïx was staring at Sora with filled him with fear and anger.

Sora stared at his silver-haired friend slightly, deep down he knew somehow that something was terribly wrong and Riku knew it too and somehow it revolved around the Luna Diviner. Something that made Axel the same way, something that Saïx desired but knew he could never have. Sora shook his head slightly, no time for thoughts like that. Saïx was going to pay for what he did! He looked down at his keyblade, the Bond of Flame, Sora named it. Axel, in a way was fighting with him now.

Lifting the Bond of Flame, he aimed at the Luna Diviner, "Firaga!" he shouted, the flames burst from the tip, rushing at the intended target with a powerful blaze as the attack was magnified by the special atributes from the keyblade. The flames were blown away by Saïx's weapon, but Sora smirked when some parts on Saïx's coat had melted.

Saïx looked down at the coat, Sora expected the Nobody to growl out a reply but no such thing came. The said Nobody just returned his attention on Sora and he felt himself involuntarily shudder, something in Saïx's eyes were scaring him, and it had something to do with him.

Riku smirked when he saw Saïx's coat melted from the searing flames from Sora's attack and just like the brunette Riku had expected the Luna Diviner to bite out some sort of nasty comment but was surprised when the latter just returned his gazetoward him...no not at him..at..Sora. And something was wrong with the look in those cold yellow eyes, something very disturbing. He felt Sora shudder behind him, obviously the brunette noticed something amiss also. Suddenly warning bells went off inside his head, that look seemed too oddly familar to him and for some reason or another it clicked at what Saïx was staring at Sora with that emotion was.. lust? Riku's eyes widdened and he placed himself more protectively in front of Sora. 'That bastard isn't getting near him!' he growled within his mind.

The Luna Diviner grinned in his malicious manner and slowly advanced on the two, Sora quickly dodged around Riku and sprang forward, his keyblade held in front of him, with a battle cry the brunette lunged at the other male, catching him in the rib cage. Sora hopped he had broken some of those bones, hopefully then they would puncture a lung and Saïx would suffer a very painful (and slow) death.

But instead of getting what he wished, the Nobody threw his weapon to the side- Riku ran forward knowing something bad was going to happen- and seized Sora's right arm,stopping any further attacks from the keyblade master, then with his free hand errected a barrier between them and Riku, seperating the silver-haired teen from the brunette. He smiled sadisticly at Riku then pulled Sora to him and punched him in his diaphram, the brunette doubled over, the oxygen knocked from him, Saïx then punched Sora in the jaw, causing the teen to be thrown to the ground.

"SORA!" Riku screamed, his voice so full of desperation at getting to Sora. He was letting the brunette down again. 'No, nononononono!' he shouted in his mind, slamming the barrier with everything he had, tears streamed down his cheeks. He was further horrified when Saïx kicked Sora so the brunette was laying on his back..."No," he whispered then screamed it. "Leave him alone!"

Saïx ignored the frantic cries of the silver-haired teen, his focus was solely on breaking the brunette beneath him. He layed himself on the stunned teen and kissed him, hard. Using his hand he forced Sora's jaw open and thrust his tongue inside, his free hand was unzipping the Organization coat he donned. Saïx pulled himself away from the brunette, looking down at the very frightend keyblade master as the latter realized what the Luna Diviner had planned. He grinned and proceeded to remove Sora's black shirt, the latter struggled beneath him making him even more horny. Saïx took his time while running his hand's over Sora's nicely toned chest, he ground his hips into the smaller boy making him whimper, he saw that the boy was about to shout so he punched himin the jaw again then proceeded to cover his mouth as he took in the sight of the momentarily stunned brunette beneath him. He was beautiful, just like his Nobody, but his emotions were real, which made this even more sweeter. 3

Riku was slamming himself against the barrier, screaming, crying and slowly dying inside. Saïx was going to rape Sora and there was nothing he could do, he was powerless, a reason why he had given into the darkness was to get rid of that weakness, so he could protect Sora, but in the end all it did was put Sora in worse danger, but now he had light and it also wouldn't do anything useful for him. Saïx was forcing Riku to watch him rape Sora, "NONononononono! Leave him alone! Leave him alone! Leavehimalone!" his words started to run together as he started to sob as he watched the Nobody start to unzip Sora's pants...

Riku.

Said silver-haired teen looked up questionly. 'Wha..?'

Saïx was enjoying watching the brunette beneath him squirm, slowly he started to pull the zipper of the black pants down, staring into Sora's azure eye's while doing so, the eye's were wide and pleading. Fearful. He chuckled, his eye's roved over the body below him. Sora's body was perfect besides the burn marks all over his chest and hickeys on his neck and he knew that Axel had been the giver of those, after all Sora and the red-head had been missing for a few hours before they appeared before him. He growled thinking about the pyro, looking down he removed his hand from Sora's mouth and attacked it with his own, grinding his hips into the boy. He could feel Sora wince at the friction and being the sick sadistic bastard he was, he did it again and harder.

Sora somehow had managed to seperate himself from his mind and now he was sitting, holding himself while shaking in an endless abyss of nothingness. It was a black void. But he didn't care. Sora didn't want to watch Saïx desecrate him anymore, it made him sick. Sora soon found himself sobbing, crying out for Riku...crying for Axel. It was his fault the red-head was gone. If it hadn't been for his own weakness the pyro would still be here and Sora wouldn't been in this predicament. He hurt and he continued to blame himself for what had happened, causing himself to self-loath. He was brought out of it when he felt a familiar presence brush against his mind.

Don't keep feeling sorry for yourself, you're making me feel bad!

He knew that voice, but didn't dare look. It couldn't be but he had to ask anyway. "Axel..?" Sora whispered softly, keeping his eyes shut.

He felt something brush the tears off his cheek. Carefully opening his eyes he saw the red-head standing there, blue clashed with green and for a second all was still until Sora launched himself at the pyro and burried his face in his chest, inhaling the familiar scent of the other. "...But how?" he whispered looking up at Axels' emerald green eyes questionly. He smirked.

"Your the one who said I'd always be with you," he touched the place where Sora's heart was. "here."

Sora offered the pyro a shakey smile and only nodded in response. The said pyro pulled him into an embrace, he then nuzzled his spikey mess called hair. "Sora," he started softly. "I don't have much time," he felt the brunette stiffen and he knew he was going to say something but quickly cut him off. "I came to give you a gift." he pulled away and looked at the smaller boy who was looking at him questioningly. He held out his palm, and in it was a blackish purple colored orb the size of a marble.

Once again Sora looked at him questioningly. "You know about Roxas," Sora nodded. "this," he motioned to the orb in question. "will help you. Roxas was your Nobody and hemerged with you but his power is still there, this orb will link you to that power so you can use it." The brunette looked at him, digesting what he had just said. Slowly he than reached out and layed his hand over the orb and it absorbed into Sora's hand. Axel grasped the hand and pulled the brunette closer and kissed him, he then put his mouth next to his ear. "I'll be back soon, I promise. I won't leave you. Got it memorized?"

Sora's eye's snapped open and he saw Saïx staring at him. He could still feel his pants on so he knew that the Nobody on him hadn't done anything, but why was he staring..? Well, if he was in Saïx position than he would be staring also.Aparantly the orb that Axel had given him just didn't absorb into his body like in his 'dream world.' No, instead here it had surrounded Sora's entire body, giving him a blackish-purple aura. He tore his gaze away from Saïx's curious gaze, and it landed on Riku's surprised aquamarine ones.

Riku couldn't help but stare at the brunette as he reconized that all familiar dark aura that was wrapping itself around Sora. But this darkness wasn't trying to swallow him, it was protecting him! And this protective darkness aura wasn't someone elses, it was Sora's. He froze in surprise when the brunette looked over at him, he felt his need, Sora wanted to be near him. But Riku couldn't get passed the damned barrier! 'How..?'

Sora felt a desperate need to be near Riku, no he had to be near Riku. He didn't know where it came from but he knew that being near the silver-haired youth would make him feel safe and loved. He had to get to him. He had too! Thats when he felt himself being engulfed by something, but he didn't care as long as it got him to Riku.

Said person felt as if he were going to have a heart attack as Sora was fully engulfed then vanished out from under a very startled and aroused Saïx, who in his current state, couldn't hold the barrier up anymore and it vanished.

Riku was about to attack the Luna Diviner but something made him stop. That something had their arms wrapped around his waist and were holding tightly, not letting him go. Cautiously he looked behind to see who it was (though he already knew) and he was met with Sora's sapphire eyes. He quickly spun around (startling the already unstable Sora) and wrapped his arms around the younger teen and pulled him into a fierce embrace. He never wanted to let go. "Riku.." Sora whispered. Riku smiled, he was estatic. Sora was ok! He let the brunette go and turned his attention to Saïx, who was still sitting in shock, for he was carrying out a private conversation that no one but he could hear.

Riku growled loudly, his raised his keyblade but was held back by a familiar hand. Turning his hand slightly he found Sora staring at him, the said brunette released his arm and two keyblades appeared in each hand. The Bond of Flame in the right and the Oblivion the left. He looked at him (Riku) questioningly, but Riku knew what he was aiming at and nodded.

Both sprung forth with practiced ease, they were beside each other, their steps perfectly in sync. Saïx was still preoccupied with his silent conversation and didn't even know what hit him until it went through. Sora's keyblades were burried in the Luna Diviner's chest, where his heart would be and Riku was on the opposite side, his blade coming out on Sora's end.

The Nobody looked at both of them, his gaze landed on Riku's and smiled. "Now...I...under...stand." he said his eyes sparkled with an epiphany, each word was forced, it didn't take long for Saïx to fade away after his final words.

Number VII, The Luna Diviner, Saïx, had met his end.

Sora stared at the spot where Saiïx had been, his gaze then shifted to the Bond of Flame. He smiled slightly. 'For you...Axel.'
