Hey! Inspiration struck again... although it's long overdue. I actually had this idea over a year ago, just didn't feel like putting form to it... until now. The quick disclamiers, I do not own Sqare Enix, Kingdom Hearts, or Playstation. Now enjoy Kingdom Hearts II: The End.
"Riku!" The boy with brown hair cried out, as the older boy with white hair, Riku, collapsed on the ground, weak, and fatigued. The nobodies that swarmed he and Sora, crouched, scythe like hands ready to strike their enemies in masses before dissappearing completely in little puffs of darkness. Admid the huge white and gray expanse stood the two survivors, the one with brown hair looking about in surprise.
"Sora, I can't." Riku laborusly panted, feeling his body inch closer to the point of no return. Sora's face looked pained.
"How can you say that?" He seemd appauled that Riku would suggest such a henious idea of leaving his dear friend to certain death, unbeknowst to him that if their rolls were switched, Riku would abandon him without any mercy.
"Sora, look where we are. There's no where for us to go." He looked about the endless space. Sora sighed. "Maybe I should just fade back into darkness." He muttered sullenly.
"Come on, let's go." Sora said hoisting Riku up, and carring most of Riku's weight via the belt.
"You lead." Riku said deeply touched by his friends loyalty, and shamed by his lack thereof.
"Got it," Sora smiled, knowing that he finally had his friend back.
-:- -:- -:-
After walking for what seemed like twenty minutes, Riku decided talking would greatly behoove their friendship to recover from damage that was incurred ever since that fateful day Destiny Islands was consumed by darkness.
"You know," He looked down at his young Keyblade Master. "I always figured I was better at stuff."
"Really," Sora mused thoughtfully.
"You mad?"
"No," He drawled deliberatly. "I always thought so too."
"Kairi liked me more." He quietly stated under his breath.
"What?" Sora looked up at Riku wondering if he misheard him. Of course Kairi liked Sora better. She chose Sora to hold on to her heart, not Riku. That, and the many private conversations they had. Unless she had her own with Riku... Sora's train of thought came crashing to an abrupt end at this terrible revelation.
"I didn't say anything." Riku denied quickly, adverting his gaze to the insipid expanse stretched out before the two. Sora opened his mouth to inquire further, but a blinding white light expanding in front of the two heroes silenced any difference in opinons.
Both taking a deep breath, hobbled together through the portal.
"End of the road." Riku murmured sadly.
Sora's pinched his lips together, his eyes scanning the dreary expanse. Rocks with craters filled with oozing masses of darkness made the hair on the back of his neck stand up. Forcing himself to be indifferent simply replied: "Yep."
"Put me down," Riku politely commanded. Sora looked at him warily before reluctantly letting go. Riku smiled tilting his head to the side, and holding up his hands as if to say 'Look mom, I can do it!' Sora nodded his head once in satisfaction. Turning to face the water, he headed towards the sandy ground.
A thoughtful look came over his features, "You know, maybe the darkness has gotten to me too." Turning to look at his friends, he jumped. "Riku!" He dashed over to his friend, kneeling on the collapsed white haired boy.
"This world is perfect for me." Riku muttered cynically. "Maybe I should fade back back into darkness." He muttered looking at the rough terriane beneath him. Pushing himself up, he sat on his haunches. "If this is all the world is. If all its made of is light and darkness, we'll be the darkness." He muttered smoothly. He glanced in Sora's direction to look upon the boys face.
Sora nodded in agreement. "The light realms safe now. Kairi, the King, Donald, Goofy. They're all safe." He looked over at Riku grinning. "We'll be the darkness."
"Take me to the water." Riku's gaze lingered over the water. Sora stood up, and again using as much leverage as possible, hoisted Riku up, and together the duo awkardly hobbled towards the water.
A fond smile crept across Riku's features. "The waves still sound the same." He mumbled to himself closing his eyes.
Sitting upon the sandy shores Riku couldn't help but smile. "What I said back there..." Riku began slightly hesitant.
"Mhmm?" The question Riku was leading up to peaked Sora's interest.
"To be honest, it was all true. Every last bit." Sora looked over with a look of utter disbelief. Riku waved his hands to continue. "I didn't just think I was better than you. I knew I was, still am."
Sora barked a laugh, "Humble much?" Riku glared indignat.
"Let me finish." Riku snapped. "Well, although I was inherently superior in basically everything... I was jellous." His voice grew quiet as he spoke. Sora looked over his mouth agape.
"What for?" He couldn't believe Riku was jellous, and of what? He was right in claming he was inherently supieror. In fact the only time Sora could beat him was when the first game started and the hard core awesome game players were able to level Sora up and use strategies to help him beat Riku, barely.
"I was jellous you could always follow your heart." He mumbled, a small blush crept across his face.
Sora quirked a brow, Why couldn't he follow his heart... unless he had issues with peer pressure. Yeah, that's deffinatly a Riku thing. He pursed his lips thoughtfully. "I have my share of problems too y'know." Sora, the humble martyr, replied solemnly.
Riku couldn't help but scoff, "Like what?" His voice carried unfiltered sceptisism.
"Stuff, like having a backstab- er... I mean having a crazy drug using alter-ego (1)." Riku stared at Sora wondering what he was originally going to say. Shrugging it off he decided to continue with his scripted speech.
"Well, there is one advantage to being me." Riku smirked. Sora quirked a brow. "I'm always going to be taller than you." He smugly replied. Sora bolted up, pointing his finger at Riku.
"I knew you were going to bring that up again!" He hissed, remembering ever since Riku had hit puberty he had been taller than him and rightly so rubbed his face in it. Riku wheezed with laughter as Sora fumed silently. "The darkness can keep you!" He screeched. Tears flooded Riku's vision as slapped his knee laughing. "And anyway, I've got something you can never imiate-" Sora began vehmently.
"Being short!" Riku got out inbetween fits of laughter. Sora was visably shaking with anger, Sora began a long winded rant about how every chance Riku got he had to bring up Sora's height. Riku's laughter quieted down as he noticed a bottle. Picking it up, he took out the contents, carefully reading the parchment. Looking up at Sora, he held out the paper. "Sora," he replied earnestly. Sora grabbed the paper, ripped it up into tiny scraps of paper, then threw it into the water watching it scatter. That would show Riku!
"What," He breathed turning his head toward the older boy finally regaining his composure.
"That was our only way home." Riku muttered in shock. Sora stood silent for a long minute.
Throwing his hands up in the air, Sora shouted unto the heavens the most memorable words of the Kingdom Hearts, Chain of Memories, and Kingdom Hearts II:
"#$%"
END OF KINGDOM HEARTS II.
(1): Remember Roxas? If not, go read chapter 2.
Haha... I like that. When I imagined writing this story I never really thought about how I would end it. It just kind of happened and it made me smile. That and I never thought I would see the day when symbols would be necessary for Sora's potty mouth (shocked look). I think old man Disney just rose from the grave and is going to teach Sora a lesson or two about Disney wholesomeness.
Well I hope you like this one, the next one is going to be a little more... intersting (bites lip), but you'll have to wait until I get that all typed up. Hey look, I've decided to be nice and do shout-outs to the faithful reviewers of "Your Mom" oneshots. Love you guys! Don't forget to read and review.
OH! For those who have ideas, but don't feel like putting them in a fanfiction, or whatever your reasons, ideas are appreciated. Credit will be given where credit is due. If your idea, then in essence, your fanfiction.
iShiznitch: Haha, I totally agree. Through the whole game (had I not known) would have seriously thought he was on drugs… purple trains and all. Old man Disney is very angry he likes his censorship… probably why it all fell apart after he froze himself to death.
LuckiiBeckii: I'm so glad you like it! The eyebrow thing is a little weird… like dancing catapillars weird.
LKani-X: Of course you're in it! You Reviewed!!! The whole Roxas segment of the game felt like he was on drugs… see kids, that's what drugs do to you XD
tiduskazurakitesora: Again (I hope I'm not sounding like a broken record) glad you think it's so funny, and in truth I don't see Xaldin coming on to Sora… hence why it is a drabble.
Cheekie Excel: Thank you for your hilarious review… HA HA power yeah! (wtf up with that statement?)
Rykt: I love LMAO, it's one of the best acryonyms of the technology era. It's great.
EmoIsKabibble: I'm not to certain what ishkabibble is but I like it… thank you!
: Sometimes less is more :) Thanks!
ShadowKitsune19: I'm sorry to alert your mother, but I'm glad that you found it so funny! I'll keep trying.
KibaxIno is love: I try. I'm still trying to figure out how to fit in the panty line thing… but I haven't forgotten
SharleaNorth: Yes, it is disturbing… and sadly it's what come from my head v.v Glad you liked it.
Gabubi-baka: Oh thank you so much. You're a great self-esteem booster, and make me feel as if I'm worthy (cries embarrassedly) I hope you enjoy my newest chapter. Thank you.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL OF YOUR REVIEWS!!! I REALLY DO APPRICIATE IT!
I hope all of you enjoy my stories… and I'll keep trying. Gotta go, going to be late for class XD!
