RoxasTheOther- Yes, I know. I did that on purpose, although I should've bolded jealousy as well. :P And yeah, they're both feeling bad. It's weird, really. (Thanks for reviewing!)

Kairi's POV

As I ran away from my friend, I felt it welt up in me: Guilt.

I felt so guilty. I think it was my fault for his behaviour.

But he told me to "leave me alone."
I insisted, over and over.
It must've gotten annoying.

I'm just something everyone gets pissed off at. I'm just a burden to my friends. And all I wanted to do was help.

Maybe I was never meant to help anyone. Maybe, I was caught up in this mess. Did it matter that I was a Princess of Heart? Psh, no. Nobody cared, and I most certainly didn't.

Tears fell down my face. But I knew, it was my fault. It's even from the beginning, before the whole adventure I wasn't even alive for.

Because of those two...my friends, willing to save me. Because my heart had gone away, because I'm a stupid "Princess of Heart".

I feel like a piece of shit right now.

I'm sorry, Sora.

Normal POV

She sobbed. And sobbed.

She decided to walk around, hoping not to see her friend. Or was he her friend anymore? She was hurt.

But Sora didn't mean to hurt her. He just wanted some time alone, so he wouldn't hurt her.

His plan didn't work, as we can all tell.

Kairi felt miserable. And so did Sora. Because of his own jealousy, he'd pay the price. And the price was Kairi.

It was very confusing, especially for Riku, who had found Kairi, sitting on beach shore, watching the ocean, as her tear-filled eyes reflected upon the waters. He approched her, unsure if he should, or not. Hesitantly, he tapped her shoulder gently, to see Kairi's face, dreached in tears, and her eyes, red and puffy.

"Woah, Kairi," he's ask the emotionally scarred girl. "What happened to you?"

She blinked, and her blue-violet eyes shot to the ground. "Sora and I...we had an argument."
"About what?"
"I kept asking what's wrong...y'know," she sniffles, wiping a new tear that had formed in her eye. "And he just blew up...he was annoyed, I could tell."
"Are you sure? That's not like Sora," Riku began. "He'd never yell at you."
"Well, I saw him, and he was yelling at me." she said. "Sora's been so mad at me lately. And I should've apologized when I noticed it."
"I don't think he's mad at you, Kairi," he told her. "He'd never be mad at you. Sure, he's an emotional type from time to time, but this is too peculiar to look over."

Kairi kept her blue-violet locked on Riku. "What's so peculiar? It's just me being annoying."
"No...I feel something else in Sora. He's so...different."

Kairi grabbed her head in pain. "Oww..." she garbled, as the pain grew.
"Kairi?"
She began to stand up, but fell right back down; Her head excructiatingly painful by now.

"What's going on...?"

It was dark everywhere. Kairi never liked the dark that much. It always gave her the impression of fear.

She took a few steps back, frightened, and wide-eyed. Her head took a turn in each direction, but as far as she could see, it was darkness.

"What's happeneing? Where am I?" she questioned out loud. It was good that her head didn't hurt, but she was more concerned about what was happening.

Suddenly, she saw a familiar head of spikey brunet hair. Her eyes widened in surprise, as they locked with the boy's. He gave a look of hurt, or was it guilt? The familiar figure walked away, turning away.

"Sora!" she called out to the figure. "Sora!"

He didn't answer; He didn't stop. He just continued to walk away from Kairi.

"Please, stop, S-," she stopped as she forgot the name. And as the name slipped her mind, so, the figure did the same by fading into the darkness, not fighting back, or anything. The darkness just took him in. Kairi couldn't understand.

"No..." she mumbled, uneasyness stiring in her. She began to run. "Where are you?" she shouted. But she had forgotten his name.

She ran, and ran, in any direction she could. She looked, but all she could see was that dark colour; black.

And suddenly, the redhead couldn't move. Kairi gasped as she tried to move her legs to run, but she just fell to the ground, paralyzed.

"What's going on?" she shouted. Kairi tried so hard to move, she had tears in her eyes again.

Straight ahead...she saw something fade into exsistence. Her blue-violet eyes widened to see a pair of putrid yellow, glowing eyes, staring back at her. IF she could move, she would've flinched, but she was paralyzed with fear.

Her fear had snatched her voice away, and she couldn't speak. The eyes came closer, and belonged to a dark figure...one shaped like the previous figure, but all black and piercing yellow eyes. She tried to get up, to escape, or run away, but alas, she couldn't move.

"Kairi..." she heard a voice call as the unknown figure paused it's movements.
"S...Sora?" the name came back, as did her voice. Was that his voice?
"Kairi..." it didn't reply to her.
"Please, Sora! Come back!" she screamed.

"Kairi..." it said, once last time. Said girl tried again, but the dark figure had attacked her with a flash of those frightening, yellow eyes.

Kairi shot up, realizing she was at the beach, where she last remembered before that...dream.

'What...was that a dream?'

"Kairi," her came was called once again. She turned to wherever it came from.
"Sora?"
"No, Kairi, it's Riku," he told her, a slightly disturbed expression on his face. "What's wrong with you?"
"I'm sorry, Riku," she apologized. "It's just..." she sighed.

Riku looked at her, with green eyes that seemed to piece anyone. They insisted, "Go on, Kairi,"
"Well, I had a dream," Kairi started, uncertain to tell him. "And...he was there,"

Now, inside of his mind, Riku had said: 'Doesn't every dream of yours have Sora in it?'
But in reality, he'd replied with an "Oh, really?".
"Yeah...she it was so confusing, too." she brushed some hair out of her face. "All I could see was darkness, the colour back, everywhere. But there was nothing, just...black."
He started to actually listen with interest at this point. "Go on," he mumbled.
"Afterwards, I took sight of Sora...he looked back, a look of sadness, or something like that." Kairi continued to describe the dream to him, while sniffling. "I called out, 'Sora!', but he didn't reply. He didn't even look back after that,"

Kairi felt a tear, but quickly hid it. "And...Sora faded into the darkness. And at that moment, I'd forgotten his name. I started to run, to look for him, but I became paralyzed. I couldn't move; I was so scared."
"So, Sora's in the darkness, you tried to find him, and end up not moving," he asked, simplifying it quickly.
"Yes...and then these glowing, yellow eyes stared back. I was so scared, I'd forgotten how to speak."
"Woah."
"Yeah. 'Woah.'. Then, I kept hearing someone call my name. I couldn't remember whose voice it was...but it sounded so...familiar."

'Hmm...' Riku pondered, wondering if there really WAS something wrong with the redheaded girl.
"And...the last thing I remember from the dream...was a flash. It looked like it attacked me or something. I woke up, and ended up here, feeling like someone just beat me real bad." she grabbed her head in pain. "I'm not feeling too good."
"Well, you should get some sleep...er, comfortable sleep. Need help getting home, Kairi?" he offered, while holding out a hand to help her. she quickly smiled, and accepted his help.
"Sure, Riku, thanks," she muttered. As Kairi stood up, she wobbled, and almost fell, only to have Riku catch her in time.
"I think you need more help than that," he told her.

Kairi let out a small chuckle in appreciation. 'I'm so glad I have friends like him, and...

Sora.'

Well, Sora hadn't gotten any better. Right now, he'd hated himself for acting like that to Kairi.

It could've been him, but he swore, he heard the sound of a key unlocking something in his head.
'Why did I do that?!' he angrily asked himself, that endevour of spite on his face. 'I bet Kairi'll hate me...forever,'
'But why bother, Sora?' A voice asked him inside of his head, empasizing "bother" quite heavily.

'...God?' he's asked, surprised to hear another voice in his head.
'Psh, it's Roxas, but close enough,' he cockily announced his...real self. 'But still, why bother going after her?'
'Well, because I love her, Roxas,' Sora replied, with much emotion in his tone. 'Something you Nobodies can't understand.'
'Hey, just because I'm a Nobody, that doesn't mean that I don't have emotions,' he snapped at Sora. 'Nobodies can feel, too,'
'Oh, really?' He had asked his Nobody. 'I wonder, can you feel what I'm feeling right now? Can you feel how pissed off I am right about now, Roxas?'
'Well, not exactly, I-,'
'Thought so,' the brunet boy interrupted him in mid sentence, crossing his arms.

'I'm not done!' Roxas had taken control of the conversation now. 'Stop being as ass, Sora. Now, as I was saying, technically, I'm you. But let me change the subject real quick.'
'And...why?' Sora asked Roxas. He sighed.
'There's something wrong inside. Like...your heart and your mind and stuff...' Roxas explained. He couldn't exactly find the words.
'Oh, really?' Sora inquired, noticing Roxas's lack of words and hand motions. 'Elaborate, please.'
'Darkness.' the blond Nobody had merely replied. 'Darkness, there's more than usual. And more than your heart can handle.'
'What?!' The brunet boy almost fell off his bed in disbelief.
Roxas tried to hold in a laugh, then his face became serious. 'I'm not kidding you, Sora. And saying that, you should know by know that something's wrong, since you can hear me.'
'So, you're saying I'm not supposed to hear you?' He asked his counterpart.

'Uhm, no.' the other replied flatly, hoping Sora would get it. 'Usually, if you're talking to me, which is talking to youself, you'd be arguing with a consience, which I have replaced as of now.'
'Riiiiiight,'
'Now, here's the point: If you keep moping about the girl, more darkness comes about.' the blond advised, wagging a finger at him.
'Do I have darkness in my heart?' Sora asked, a brown brow raised. (I don't think he's the best at remembering things.)
'Yeah, you do. Sorry to crush your hopes, Sora, but you're not exactly a 'Prince of Heart', y'know?'

'True.' the brunet answered, after thinking about it. 'Is this why I've gone into emo-bitch mode?'
Roxas stopped for a second, then shrugged. 'I guess you can put it that way.' he answered.
'So...what're you trying to tell me?'

Roxas sighed in frustration. 'I don't know why I'M supposed to be a part of YOU.'

Well, this was an okay chapter. :D It didn't suck, but it didn't go "LYKE, OMG THAT WAS AMAZIIINGG!!!" in my opinion.
I don't know about yours.
So that's what reviews are for.
