Chapter 3: A Flash of Light and Hidden Hearts

'Huh, what happened…? I'm floating…no, flying through the air?' Kimi thought as she gazed at the woodland forest. Remembering what she had in her hand Kimi placed the image of the mirror into a safe place, but doing so she felt a tiny tug. She had forgotten how she was flying in the climax of thinking until she looked up, seeing it was Dark carrying her.

"H-Hey, get your hand off my chest pervert!"

"Well, how am I supposed to keep you from falling?" Dark yelled, remembering what happened in his past with Riku. 'Dammit why am I remembering that now?' he thought.

"Well you can at least hold me a different way so I don't feel violated!"

"Fine I will!" With a twist of Dark's arms he was holding Kimi, bridal style. With all of the commotion Dark had turned his attention away from his flight path, and when he turned back…

"Dark, look out for that tree!" Dark's pitch black wings shriveled and disappeared and they both fell, screaming, all the way to the woodland floor

Luckily, the ground was sort enough not to kill a falling person. Kimi opened her eyes and stared at the leaf scattered ground. She spotted a few strands of hair, and when she clenched her fists they were grasping cloth. She then rolled over and saw that she had landed on Dark!

"Dark, are you still alive?" She yelled. The thief stirred; then he opened his eyes.

"Are you okay, Kimi?"

"Yeah, are you okay? Considering I fell on you and all…"

"I'm fine." He sat up wincing at a sort of pain. The pain came from a wound on Dark's right arm, which was now bleeding crimson red blood.

"Your arm! I thought you said you were okay!" Kimi then pulled a strip of pure white cloth and began bandaging it.

"It's just a….wound?" Dark sat there surprised as he watched her apply her medical skills the best she could to his arm. 'Is she worrying about me…for real?' Dark thought.

"There all…" She felt her body go inward, and in that moment she thought, 'Wha-what?'. The thief held her in an embrace.

"Thank you, Kimi."

"Y-Your welcome, but…" She broke the embrace. "I'm not very skilled with medical treatment."

"Don't worry, I bet it'll be fine." A slight push of wind ruffled Dark's violet hair. Then in an instant Dark sprang to his knees and started running like he was running for his life. Kimi turned quickly to see a blinding flash of light which faded away quickly.

"Dark, where are you going? Dark!"
