Nor do I own the song 'Yellow' by Coldplay, the lyrics of which appear whilly nilly :giggles: throughout this little fic of mine, in form of title chapters and occasional line of dialogue.Nor Do I own 'The Oath', a beautiful piece of music by Nobuo Uematsu from Final Fantasy VIII Piano collections (Go take a listen) from which this fic takes its name. I am however saving my pennies to buy shares in Cloud Strife and Sephiroth. I may well be saving forever, but a girl can dream, ne?

This had not been BETAed ;.; tragic, ne? If anyone would be so kind as to offer to do so, or to do so for future fics, I'd be grateful.

This offers little explanation as to any of the mysteries of Kingdom Hearts, it just expresses the characters emotions once it's all over… But I may well speculate about what may have happened as the story rolls on. I wouldn't want you to read of you hadn't gotten at least a little way into the game or already spoiled it for yourself. Anyhu. So, time has passed and Riku and Sora would be a couple of years older… so around 16 or 17.)

Cloud: … HEY! That's MY line!

Shush. Or I shall spank you.

Cloud: … :le-sigh: Such a hard life.
