Fiery determination shone in a young brunette's cerulean eyes. Though he had always been younger, weaker, and slower, Sora wasn't going to lose to Riku. His best friend had done to much to harm Sora's outlook on life. He lifted the Keyblade he had recently earned back, and glared into the silver haired male's aqua eyes.
"Go play hero with this."
Thanks to Riku, this was no longer a game. There were no more play-fights, and it was all his fault.
"Don't you get it Sora?" Riku asked, his voice cracking slightly. Maybe the younger was hallucinating, but he could of sworn on seeing a trace of depression in Riku's eyes.
The large key stayed in the air, and Sora's frustration stayed. "Get what?" He asked through his teeth, he wouldn't be fooled by Riku's acts any longer.
Jeez, Riku had a lot of mood swings. Anger flared up in his once delicate features as he hissed "You haven't noticed? Haven't caught onto the hints?"
"What hints!"
Riku avoided the question once again. He just muttered "I figured the paupo would have done it."
"Riku," Sora said questioningly, his twin brows drawing together in confusion. "I don't understand what you mean."
"I'm starting to believe you're dense enough that you wouldn't get it even if I kissed you." Riku said, pacing now. "Let me tell you this, Sora. I don't like Kairi, never have, never will." Would he understand now?
"If you don't like Kairi, why didn't you let me rescue her?" Sora asked, once again getting frustrated.
The other teen sighed and raised his weapon. "Nevermind, let's just fight." He said, looking at the floor. Sora would never understand.
"I want to know what you meant!" Sora yelled with a pout on his lips, and confusion in his eyes.
"Even Kairi realized it, can't you see?"
"No!"
"God, Sora! I like you, okay?" Riku angrily said.
Sora blinked a few times, those words were slaps of reality. He looked at Riku, then his weapon, then back at Riku. "I hate you!" Sora screamed, lunging at the older male. "Hate you!" He repeated shrilly, whacking Riku's chest with the Keyblade. "You screw up everything! Why couldn't you of let me save Kairi? Why couldn't you of lied to me instead of saying…saying that!"
He let Sora hit him, even though it stung. Each mark was a cruel reminder that he shouldn't of started this. It was all his fault. Sora wasn't to blame, he did nothing wrong. Riku only wanted Sora to be happy, but he messed that up pretty bad too. He didn't mind the pain so much as the words, Riku didn't want Sora to hate him. "I can't lie to you." He replied quietly.
Hot tears ran down golden cheeks, hitting the floor with a soft 'pat'. Sora kicked Riku weakly and sobbed out "Then…why couldn't you of…," He hiccupped a few times and continued "Kept your mouth shut?" Another hiccup.
Riku would of tried to comfort Sora, or calm him down, but freaking Sora out even more would not help him. "I don't know." He said, his eyes full of guilt.
"Why did you pretend to like Kairi?"
Riku turned away. He didn't feel like answering 'to make you jealous'.
A cloaked woman with greenish skin scowled and interrupted "Riku, I sent you down here to complete a job. Why is it not done?"
"I'm not going to kill the only person I care about." He said to her. Riku had gotten used to her cold gaze and was no longer afraid. She wouldn't hurt him, she needed him.
"You would rather have me do the task for you? Or Ansem?"
"No, just leave him alone. I got your last Princess, so go away."
"That you did, but we need the Keyblade master…out of the way." She raised her staff and pointed it at Sora.
"I said no!" Riku yelled, standing in front of Sora.
"Foolish boy." Maleficent smirked. "I no longer need you, I have my Princesses."
"I don't care, kill me then." Riku said. He still wasn't afraid. A few more seconds and that portal would be ready…
The witch cackled and Riku smirked. "Run." He whispered to Sora, pushing him in the direction of the portal. As soon as the giant yellow shoes were no longer visible, the portal disappeared.
"You do know that I will just kill him next?" She asked, finally opening those ugly eyes after a long laugh.
"Not if he's already gone." Riku said with a slight grin. Damn, he should of kissed Sora, even if the brunette didn't want it.

Author's Notes: Hah. Sucks to be the reader, huh? I just did a cliff-hanger oneshot! Go me.
Anyways, I was trying to make it seem onesided, but whatever. It's sort of onesided. I might continue this as a 'Part II' oneshot, but it depends on you. Let me know if you want it. Yay for reviews. HINTHINT.
