SPOILERS AHEAD!
Sora sat on a rock letting his feet dangle by the small camp area he and Kairi have. He was feeling very strange right now. He liked what Kairi did just moments before. But now that she didn't remember…. Was it even her? I mean this place is so strange. Everything has been strange lately. But still…. He should have known better. Never let things get out of hand. But he did.
He kept running his hands through his hair rummaging through his thoughts. His feelings for Kairi were growing. He always had cared for her even when they were young children. Even thoughts of them younger, he'd always grow jealous of Riku being better at almost everything then him. He always wanted to impress Kairi. And yet… somehow he still thought she liked Riku better then him. After all Riku was much more… mature then he. And older.
He leaned back on the rock thinking these things over. It hurt to think she might love someone else. After all the things he's done for her. But then again what about all of the things he hasn't done for her?
His thoughts were interrupted by Kairi poking her head around a tree just ahead of him.
"There you are!" She smiled.
"Kairi… listen, I'm sorry. What happened back there… I'm not really sure what happened but I am sorry…" He stood up slowly.
But Kairi was faster. She quickly rushed over to him and pressed a single finger against his lips.
"Shh… Sora, whatever is in the past. Let's forget about it and just move foreword. Come on, I found something." She took his hand leading him away from their small camp.
"Kairi, ah, where are we going?"
"Doesn't matter anyway."
Sora just raised an eyebrow and shrugged almost imperceptibly.
"What do you mean? We're on a mission to find Riku it does matter!" He shouted at her and pulled his hand away roughly.
For a moment Sora thought he saw Kairi's soft blue eyes quiver and quickly regretted what he'd done.
"It's just that… I don't understand….Why are you doing this to me?"
Kairi opened her mouth about to speak but nothing came out. Her eyebrows frowned together and she backed up.
"Kairi?" He reached for her.
She looked up. Confidence was no longer in her eyes but fear.
"Sora! Don't -…."
A black cloud formed around her with pink and purple sparks forming around her.
"KAIRI!" He reached for her again trying to grab hold of her but it was too late, Kairi was gone.
"Kairi?" He whimpered and fell to the ground. He pounded his fist on the ground, "I promised to keep you safe and now look…" a single tear fell down his cheek. He wiped the tear off and saw a black boot right next to him. Quickly he jumped to his feet with his keyblade in hand.
"Give me back Kairi!"
"Why? So you can mistreat her and use her?" the black cloaked figure said.
That obviously struck a chord, he let his guard down for a moment which gave the black cloaked man just enough time to strike Sora down.
"Ufgh!" He cried as he fell to the ground. He raised his arm up in defense but it was no use. The man had the upper hand.
"No use fighting me now Sora. We have her. Come, I will take you to her. But I doubt she'll want to see you." He laughed lightly and held out his hand.
Sora pushed his hand away and stood up. "Take me to her."
The black cloud showed up again. The man walked through it, and Sora quickly followed. They were brought to a city. It was dark and cloudy. Not to mention very cold, sending shivers up and down Sora's arms. He quickly treaded after the man who was walking away fast.
"If you do anything funny, I'll dispose of her."
"You touch her and I'll-! AH!" Sora was knocked backwards and fell to the ground.
Suddenly there were two black cloaked figures fighting. It was the fastest fight scene he had ever seen. Their movements were swift and graceful.
Sora watched in anticipation watching the cloaked men fight bravely against each other. Sora wasn't sure which one he was rooting for, all he knew was that He needed to find Kairi.
As he got up to leave he saw one of the men strike the other down. He fell to the ground. He looked up and took off his hood. He had a patch on his eye and a deep scar running down his face.
"You've lost your touch Xigbar."
"You've gained it…." His body began to dissolve in thin air. Leaving nothing behind except an eerie feeling.
"Who.. who are you?" Sora asked standing up.
"No time to explain. We need to get Kairi."
Sora was starting to feel irritated but knew that Kairi came first. He quickly followed after the man being careful to not loose him.
They went through a door up ahead and somehow ended up in a small forest. Through the trees was a huge mansion. No questions asked they both walked inside and up the grand staircase. They headed to a door to the right. The man opened the door to reveal a pure white room with drawings all over the wall.
"Whoa!" Sora cried running into the room and looking at the drawings. They were of him, places he's been, journeys they've been on….. on the wall behind him was a picture of Kairi and Ansem joined together by the hands. Sora raised an eyebrow and turned to look at the man. But the man no longer had his hood on. The man was Riku.
"R.. Riku!" Sora ran to him.
"Hey."
"Riku!"
Riku said nothing but smiled. Sora ran to him and hugged him tight.
"I've searched for you! You came home… and then… you left… I thought you were possessed again…."
"I was. But I fought it by finding Ansem the Wise."
"Ansem? But Ansem possessed you!"
"No…. I found out that Ansem is a Nobody. He is Xeanort. Ansem the Wise's assistant. He turned himself into a heartless years ago, creating a nobody. The man who had and possessed Kairi is really Xeanort. I stopped him for now. But the Organization is stronger. They want Kairi for themselves. So does Xeanort. He wants her to open Kingdom Hearts. The Organization wants Kairi to fuse with Namine. Namine is Kairi's nobody. Kairi holds the true power in her heart.
A prophecy about a princess losing her heart, and having a keyblade master bring it back to her came true. But what the Organization doesn't know, is that Namine was created differently. Making her stronger then just a regular Nobody. If those two become one again, it could mean chaos. Those two are two different people now. Nothing could bring them back together unless forced. And forcing will destroy them both and could lead to the end of everything you've worked for Sora."
"This is…. So… confusing." He sat down in the chair.
"I know. But we have to do everything we can to stop the Organization. They stop at nothing to have Kairi. Who you destroyed was Xeanort, but somehow his spirit is living around. I believe it's in Kairi. But for now she is with the Organization. They will deal with him. Sadly, they will deal with Kairi the wrong way also. Which is why we need to get her back. You see, you two will bring balance in the worlds. You two are the chosen ones in different ways."
"How will we create balance?"
"Work together and use your powers. Your hearts will show you how. Lock the final keyhole and it will bring balance. Kairi is remembering her past because it is trying to show her what she needs to do. Xeanort's spirit is also to blame. But he was only helping. Weather he liked it or not."
"Now come on. We HAVE to go find Kairi before the Organization hurt Kairi and Namine."
"Yeah!"
Okay Sorry for the confusing long story from Riku! I don't even understand it haha. It is spoilers but it's not really from the story line. So your still safe! I feel like I want to re write this whole story and start over but then again I don't…. BUT! I do have a new story coming out soon! It's a Kingdom Hearts story of course but written in a Moulin Rouge story line.
Kairi as Satine, Sora and Christian, Riku I'm guessing as Henry Zedler and more characters of course! Anyways hope that this will make an awesome story! Because this one I think I messed it up so bad that…. Well not even I like it!
