Kingdom Hearts: Dream Space
Chapter 3
Rku could feel his life fading, his soul being eaten, and his heart being torn as he fell.
All around him translucent images of his devestation were forcing there way into his head.
"Why?", Riku asked himself, "Why was this happening? It's all my fault, and all of my friends and worlds suffered because of my mistakes. A-at least it will all be over..."
He landed on a platform, he glanced and saw a magnificent mosaic artwork on the floor, on it showed one boy with silver hair closing a magnificent and huge door with the help of a brown haired boy.
Riku backed away and ran, he would end his life by leaping off of the platform, and would awake.
But in the darkness he saw two eyes, and Klonoa stepped out and stopped Riku.
"Riku...about the dark Keyblade, i-it's not my fault, I was angry, and I unfortunately have a strange power"Klonoa stopped.
"You liar you're working for him, you're working for Ansem!"Riku shouted.
"No, I'm not"he looked at the floor,"I have this power and whenever I meet someone new, their dreams and memories become one with my own."
Riku glanced,"So that's why I see you in my dreams..."
"Exactly, but this ability is also a curse, any misery that someone had, becomes one with mine, if someone were to be chased by the darkness like you and I were to obtain your memories, I would be chased too, so
the dark Keyblade was a result of your memories, and now I can also wield one of those Keyblades"his voice trailed off.
"So you going mad and fighting with the King is the result of my memories?", Riku asked cautiously.
Klonoa's eyes grew cloudy,"Yes, I did not mean for this to happen, my power has brought great destruction to many worlds. And while exploring the dream realm I saw yours, they were almost identical to mine"he
paused,"And like you, I am chased by the darkness, forever tainted..."
Riku felt a stab of pity, they both were plauged with a great problem."Klonoa, I understand, we both have much in common, truce?"
Klonoa looked a little better,"Truce."
Riku awoke again, it bothered him that every time he would come to an agreement with Klonoa-in his dreams, that he would awake.
He looked and saw the King lying on the ground.
"Your majesty?", Riku asked.
The King did not move.
"MICKEY! Answer me, please answer me!"He called.
The King would still not move.
"N-no, h-he's gone, but-why?Why do all of my friends suffer from my wrongs?!"he yelled.
"Dont' worry Riku, I will help, and we may be able to save your friend", Klonoa saiid as he walked still looking cloudy and sad.
"HOW?!"he yelled, as he started to cry,"He's gone and it's all my fault, if I never wanted to leave my Islands this would never have happened!!"
"I know what you feel like, a monster, a demon, a heartless. It is not your fault, itis destiny's, if it never chose this path, we would not be going through this", Klonoa answered softly,"but you can't beat yourself up for
it. We can still save him, all we need to do is to find a certain moogle, who is said to be able to synthesise a mixture that can revive fallen ones."
Riku started to smile,"Really?"
"Yes, but he is said to dwell somewhere very dangerous, to avoid visitors asking for it, only those pure of heart and strength can find him, so Riku, are you up for the task?"Klonoa watched, waiting for a reply.
"We're leaving tomorrow, at dawn" Riku declared.
