Hi guys. I can't be stuffed putting a proper authors note in so here ya go.

"Come on Ally, lets go!" exclaimed Sora as he got up and started walking away. I followed absent mindedly, still thinking about Hope. She made sure that she went into the darkness so that I would stay safe. So that I wouldn't get hurt.

"Hey Ally, you alright?" asked Sora looking concerned.

"Huh? Oh yeah. I'm fine Sora." I replied smiling. I was probably worrying about nothing. Hope had been training in martial arts for years now. She was always the one to win in the martial arts competitions at school. Even against the boys.

"Hey you" Yelled a voice from behind us. We turned around to see a man with brown hair that went a little way past his shoulders. He had a long sword in his hand that looked dangerous. Sora saw this to and pulled out his Key Blade.

"Who are you?" I asked. Lets see. Sora just woke up in the ally and started walking around.

Normal POV

While Ally was stressing her brain over the 'mysterious' stranger Sora was getting thrashed. Only when she heared a loud "THUNK" was when she woke up from her thoughts and saw Sora knocked out on the ground.

"SORA" she yelled running over to him. "WAH!!! WHATDOIDO? ICENOWATERNOMAYBEAKISS???"

After five minutes of this the 'stranger' got tired of this so he just knocked Ally out in one swing.

With Hope and Riku

"My name is Malificent" said the dark figure stepping out of the shadows. (AN: U all know what she looks like so I'm not going to describe her.)

"Oh? And just what do you want with us?" asked Riku, his hand still on my waist. I was no longer blushing because I was much to interested in what Maleficent was saying.

"I wish to help you both harness your powers. You both hold a great dark force within you. If you allow me to train you your powers could double." Said Maleficent calmly.

"How do we know that your telling the truth?" asked Riku. His grip tightening on my waist.

"The fact that you made it here alive." Replied Maleficent. "You both travelled through a lot of darkness and not just anyone could have made it here alive."

We both stayed quiet. This time we new she was telling the truth. At least I did.

When I was falling I felt some sort of power arise in me. And before I passed out I saw two lights. One coming from my body and one coming from Riku's.

I looked at him. He must have been thinking the same thing because he was already looking at me. I closed my eyes and absent mindedly leaned in so I was resting my head on his chest. His arm once again tightened.

"Okay" he said closing his eyes. "we'll let you train us. But let us sleep a little longer ok?"

"Of course." She replied heading to the door. "When you are ready just shout out my name and we will start training." She finished and left the room. Closing the door behind her.

"Hey Riku?" I said opening my eyes and backing up so I could look into his eyes.

"Yeah Hope." Replied Riku looking at me.

"Are we really sure we want to do this? I mean give into darkness?" I asked with a lot of doubt in my voice.

"Well I think we should. I don't know why but I get this feeling that we're supposed to be here. And if we really have that power that Maleficent was talking about than we have to master it. But I think I know why your asking this question. Your worried about Ally aren't you?" he said.

"It's just that she's such a ditz and she doesn't know how to fight and, well, I just don't want her to get hurt." I said.

"you know she told me about your past. About how you used to be best friends and how your parents barley pay any attention to you. How you used to protect her from bullies and stuff. And then how you guys drifted apart." He finished looking at me.

My head was held down and my eyes were clouded, remembering the days when we would spend every second together. Then we reached middle school. That's when we both realised how different we were. While I was staying late at the school for kendo practice she was out with her boyfriend. When I spent my weekends at 5 different martial arts competitions she was sleeping over at a friends house.

Then in High school while I was at home teaching myself how to play the electric guitar she was teaching herself how to put on make up. When I got a job just so I could get away from the world she would get money of her mom and go shopping so she could be with the world. While I was the loner that the crowd laughed at she was in the crowed that laughed at me.

But she couldn't help but worry about her. But suddenly all her fear and worries disappeared when she remembered that she was with Sora. She knew for sure that she would be safe because she knew that Sora would keep her safe.

"Hope. Hey Hope? HOPE!!!" Yelled Riku as I snapped out of my trance and wipped my head to the side to look at him.

"Huh? Wha?" I said slightly confused.

"Hey. You just kind of zoned out for a second." He said smiling.

"Oh right. Sorry about that." I said smiling sheepishly.

"Don't worry about it. I think that we should get some more rest. We start training tomorrow." Said Riku as he layed down, bringing me with him.

"Yeah good idea" I said snuggling into him. He put his arms around me and we both were asleep in a matter of seconds.

Hey guys. Sorry that Sora and Ally didn't get much action today. Anyway thank you to all my revewers.
