Chapter Two
"So, how do you know Riku?" Sora asked as he dodged an attack from Guard Armor.
"The same way I know you." Shelby answered shortly as she attacked one of the arms.
"How do you know me?" Sora asked, giving the final blow to the other arm. Skye hit one of the legs.
"Rumors. You're the keyblade master. Everyone knows you."
Sora glanced at the weapons Shelby was using. They were two thin metal rings that gave off electricity when they hit the enemy. Sora decided to stay on her good side. "Where did you get the ring things?"
"They're not things. They are lightning rings. And they are very dangerous." Shelby hit the arm, and it blew up.
"I just have a regular sword." Skye said, making conversation.
"Almost done!" Sora yelled as just the torso was left. Shelby hit the torso and yelled "Thunder!". Bolts of electricity surrounded her and hit guard armor. The torso exploded into hp and mp balls. Shelby hooked the rings to her belt loop and started to walk away.
"Where are you goin?" Sora asked. Shelby shrugged.
"Dunno. But I'll be back." Skye crossed her arms over her chest so she looked mad until Shelby was out of view. When they could no longer see her Skye uncrossed her arms and sighed.
"Ice cream?"
Sora shrugged. "And poker?"
Skye smiled.

Shelby stared over the edge of the clock tower at the fountain below. She could just barely hear the sound of the rushing water as it hit the pool at the bottom of the fountain. She sat so her legs were dangling over the edge. She looked at the sky and sighed, laying back on the tower. She closed her eyes.
"So, you know me from rumors?"
Shelby sat up and turned around, narrowing her eyes. "Yes, Riku. Rumors. Now go away and find Sora or something. I'm busy."
"What have you heard about me?" He asked, ignoring her 'warning'. He was wearing a cloak and a blindfold. She didn't like it.
"Not much. Just that you were friends with Sora."
He crossed his arms and smirked. That blindfold was getting on her nerves. "Nothing good?" That blindfold really was annoying.
"I don't know what you want Riku but you better go tell Sora you're here so you can help him find Kairi and I can get on with my life." She glared at the blindfold. He smiled. "Take off the damn blindfold!"
He did and she immediately turned away from the hypnotizing, beautiful blue. "Why don't you like me? There's no reason to be mean. I've done nothing to you."
"I can't." She growled, glaring at the space in front of her.
"Why not?" He was mocking her, she thought.
"I've had bad experiences," She started through gritted teeth. "And I don't know how to trust anymore."
She stood up and jumped off the edge of the tower. As she walked away she turned to look at Riku, but he was already gone.

Shelby reached the green room. It was just after dark. She walked in and couldn't help but smile. Sora was sprawled across the bed, asleep. Skye was sitting in a chair at a table, her head resting on a pile of cards. She too was asleep. Shelby climbed onto the wardrobe and surveyed the room. Sleep wasn't an option tonight. She still couldn't trust anyone. Not even Skye.

Shelby: Sorry this is so short. Short is better in a way. It allows more chapters to the story, and better ideas and rambling. YAY rambling!
