Chapter Fourteen

Kingdom Hearts

"Ahh!" Crystal woke up with a start. Riku sat up looking alarmed.

"What? What!"

"N...nothing..." said Crystal. Riku looked at her.

"You sure?" he asked.

"Y...yeah..." Crystal replied as she looked at Riku.

Crystal immediately looked away and shifted her gaze from Riku to the floor. A thin silver eyebrow rose in response. Riku moved from the the edge of the dark path to the where Crystal was. Wrapping his arm around Crystal's waist, Riku pulled her back into an embrace and kissed her softly on the forehead. He felt Crystal shaking slightly in his arms and looked down at her. Tears were streaming down her face, and her body was beginning to curl against Riku. Concerned, Riku shifted so that Crystal faced him and looked her in the eyes.

"Crystal?" asked Riku.

"I have a feeling somethings wrong..." she said. Riku stared.

"With who? Sora and Kairi?" he asked. Crystal nodded and buried her face in Riku's chest.

"I just had a dream about them...and us. I think we're gonna be seperated..."she said. Riku looked at her.

"From Sora and Kairi?" he asked. "No me and you..." at those words a giant door appeared and the ground started to rip apart. Crystal was thrown backwards by something and the same with Riku.

"Crystal!" Riku yelled and she slipped off the side of the path. Crystal tried to get back up with every ounce of strengh she had. She screamed as she fell.

"No! Crystal!" Riku yelled as he was sucked into the door.

--------------------------------------------------

Crystal kept falling, she tried to reach out to grab something but nothing was there. She closed her eyes and yelled out for someone, anyone, anything to grab her. She hit a surface flat on her back and looked up.

"Darkness conquers all worlds!" yelled Ansem.

Crystal looked up. She was on a giant monster structure in a form of a ship. Crystal got to her feet and looked around. Sora fell straight down before her eyes. Sora's eyes we're wide with shock at the sight of her and the same with Crystal.

"Sora! No!" Crystal yelled and she went to grab his hand but missed.

"No!" she yelled again. About five seconds later Sora appeared again and was...flying! Crystal stared at him.

"You..you're flying!" she yelled. Sora smiled that goofy smile of his and Crystal laughed.

"Help me!" he said. He grabbed her hand and flew towards Ansem who Crystal couldn't help to gag a little and think...

"Lord god! Put your shirt on!"

Crystal hit a mighty blow to the back of Ansem's head and he yelled out in pain.A couple of minutes later Sora and Crystal defeated Ansem. They we're then sucked into these Dark Portals to get Donald and Goofy. After they did that they had to defeat Ansem yet again. A couple blows and slashes later he was defeated.

"It is futitle, the Keyblade alone cannot seal the door to Darkness." said Ansem.

Crystal rolled her eyes and thought..."What a dig-bat!"

He then extended his hand towards Kingdom Hearts.

"Kingdom Hearts! Fill me with the power of Darkness."

The doors opened and a black mist started to come out of it. Crystal looked at Ansem in anger.

"No! I know now without a doubt that Kingdom Hearts is Light!" yelled Sora. Kingdom Hearts opened and drowned Ansem in light.

"What...no...light!" said Ansem. "Bu...but why!" he disappeared.

Sora and Crystal followed by Donald and Goofy ran towards the door. They slammed up against the door and tried to close it. Donald and Goofy looked in and together yelled

"The Heartless!" "Hurry close it!" yelled Donald.

"I..I can't..." said Sora. Out of nowhere Crystal jumped back as Riku's hand appeared at the side of the door.

"HOLY SHIT!" she yelled.

Riku laughed then turned to Sora.

"Don't give up! Come on Sora, we'll do it together." Riku then turned his eyes to Crystal.

"Come with me." he said. Crystal stared.

"How?" she asked. He extended his hand. Crystal grabbed it and was warped into the door. She looked at Riku, smiled then helped push the door close.

"It's hopeless!" yelled Donald. The Heartless disappeared. And King Mickey jumped up.

"Come on Sora. We gotta close this door." said Mickey.

"But..." Sora started to say.

"Don't worry there will always be a door to the light." As it was almost closed Crystal turned to Sora.

"Hey Sora." said Crystal as the door was starting to close.

"Look after Kairi. Keep her safe." she said. Sora smiled. Crystal could see he was about to cry. The door closed.
