Lured in Darkness
Chapter 2:
Riku and Kairi
It was a restless night for Kairi, thinking about Sora all the time. She went outside very early in the morning to get fresh air. She scooted closer to the edge of the dock and looked down. A little glass bottle similar to the one she had sent herself had washed up on beach and the waves were sending it to shore. Kairi quickly ran off and scooped it up from the sand. She struggled to open the bottle up. It looked ancient, and old, it was covered with muggy seaweed and sand. "Come on!" she struggled finally opening the bottle. She quickly grabbed the piece of paper.
Our hearts are eternally connected,
A world filled with our dreams,
Kairi grunted in frustration trying to read the note, but she couldn't it was to damp, and the ink was dripping away.
"Kairi!" a voice was heard from outside the shack.
Riku stood outside signaling Kairi to come inside.
She leaped in surprise and swiftly stuffed the note in her pocket.

Sora
Sora looked back at Mickey in surprise as he told him to leave the castle.
"What happened? Nothing is like before, it seems like.." he was cut off by a scream heard outside the door.
"Help!" cried the voice outside.
Sora scurried to the large doors, slamming them open. He gasped as he saw Minne Mouse struggling to be freed from a herd of heartless flooding the caste doors.
The shadows rose from nowhere and covered Sora, blinding and suffocating him. Sora collapsed to his knees, gasping for breath. As more of them headed towards him, he clutched on to his key blade trying to swing it, but the heartless were around him making it to hard to do anything about it. In an instant, they disappeared, Sora quickly whirled around looking at King Mickey make the heartless vanish in a matter of seconds.
Sora started gasping for breath in the ground, his eyes darted everywhere and he looked petrified, horrified. Mickey grabbed Sora's hand and helped him up.
"They're back Sora." Mickey whispered.
"What am I supposed to do then? If I have to destroy them again, how do I know they won't come back?" Sora cried in frustration as he leaned against the wall, slipping down to the floor.
"Why don't you do it, King? I mean you vanished those heartless in seconds!" Sora cried.
"Sora, do what you believe." Mickey said leaving the room.
Sora slipped against the wall throwing his key blade across the room, only for it to reappear back to his hand.
Why am I the one who has to stop the heartless..?
Sora left the King's room and walked furiously through the halls of the castle making his way out.
"Sora?" a bizarre voice was heard inside a room.
Riku and Kairi
"What are you doing outside so early?" Riku asked looking at Kairi's sapphire eyes.
She politely took a seat and her eyes tried to look away from Riku's.
"So, what were you doing?" he asked again.
"Nothing, just watching the beach …thinking." Kairi lied.
"About Sora right?" Riku asked
"Yeah…" her voice trailed off as she stuffed the note deeper into her pocket.
"Kairi, what did you put in your pocket then?" he asked looking at her bright cherry, pink dress pockets.
Kairi slid down her chair, like a little girl caught in a fib.
"A note." she whispered back, twirling her crimson hair with her fingers.
"Nothing important." she added.
Riku sat beside Kairi, "Please, can I see it?" Riku insisted.
She hesitated, but reached into her pocket, pulling out a perfectly folded, but wrinkled old note.
What is the purpose of this note?" Kairi asked ,"I know you that you and Sora might have something to do with this." she added bringing her hands to her face.
Riku quickly read the note his eyes widen.
"Riku?" Kari asked looking into his deep blue eyes.
"Its from Sora." he replied shaikly.
