Chapter 7
She walks upstairs to the top of the tower and sits down between roxas and xion. 'hiya' she says. 'hi.' roxas smiles to her. 'you are awake?' she asks him. 'no i'm sleepwalking.' roxas answers laughing, that makes everyone laughing. Axel hands her a seasalt icecream. 'how was your day?' xion asks her. 'confusing...' she answers while taking a bite of her icecream. 'why?' axel asks. 'ever felt in love with someone while knowing that someone has to leave you one day and if it couldn't even worser someone tells you that everything you think was true was all a lie?' patricia looks at the sunset. Axel turns to the sunset too. 'no...' he answers. 'did it happen to you?' xion asks her. 'something like that...' she answers, it's quiet after that. 'so...how were your days?' she asks them. They tell her about the missions they had, and so a hour flies past. 'i have to go home, i'll see you tomorrow maybe.' patricia stands up. 'what do ya mean with maybe?' axel asks her with a weird face. 'it's a long story.' patricia walks to the stairs. 'see ya.' she waves, axel, xion and roxas waves back. She walks downstairs back to the old mansion. Inside she see that the corridor is still open, that made her relieved. When she's back at earth it's already dark. 'going home is maybe a good idea, i guess mum is getting worried.' she walks away from the tree, she hears the corridor closing, then she hears noices from the bushes. 'riku? Is that you?' she says well looking around. She hears nothing anymore and walks away. Then a hand takes hers and pulls her into the bushes, a hand goes forward her mouth. 'lmele go!' she tries to say. 'shhhh!' it's riku's voice. 'mwha awe yhou doim!' she tries to say again. 'i said shhh!' he has one arm around her middle. She sees a men in the same black coat as riku is walking on the field and looking around. 'i swear i saw her walking here!' they hear him saying. The men removes his hood. It's a guy with blonde hair and a weapon that looks like a guitar. 'i said them they shouldn't give me missions like these.' he walks away. They wait 10 minutes before coming out to be sure he isn't around. In those 10 minutes patricia notices riku has his arm wrapped around her middle, that makes her blush. '(why am i always feeling safe around you...)' after the 10 minutes they come out the bushes. Riku takes her hand and pulls her outta it. 'w-who was that...' patricia asks still blushing. 'someone who wanted to hurt you.' riku answers cold. 'why did you saved me...i thought you were mad at me...' patricia turns away since she's getting all red now. 'i promised you to protect you, i always keep my promises.' riku answers cold again. 'just cuz of the promise or do you have another reason...' patricia says really quietly. 'whut?' riku didn't heard it at all. '(shit! Why did i said THAT!) u-uuhh...w-why wanted this person t-to hurt me?' she asks nervously, riku is thinking himself. 'i actually dunno, i guess they saw you walking around in their world and want to keep you away from there.' riku answers, patricia turns to him. 'i have to go home...my mum is getting worried...sorry about what happened today...' she walks away, riku doesn't say anything. 'take care...' he says when she's futher away, but when patricia turns to him he's away. '(take care...i'll promise when i've found you i won't let you go anymore...riku noooooo!...patricia come back! riku!...sora let me go! Riku needs me!...patricia don't be so stubborn! We'll find him!)' patricia falls to the ground again. The next morning she wakes up in the grass with tears on her cheeks. 'h-huh?' she rubs the tears away. 'did i cried? Why?' she looks at her hands. 'that's the same thing i wanted to ask you.' patricia shocks when she hears someone saying that. 'x-xion?' xion is sitting forward her. 'w-why are you here? H-how did you know i was here?' patricia's eyes get big by seeing her. 'i saw you lying on the ground, what happened?' she asks her avoiding her question. 'i dunno...i had a strange dream about...wait...wheres riku?' she looks around. 'patricia...' xion looks sad. 'yeah?' patricia is looking sad at the ground. 'i-i'm not sure...that your dreams are dreams...' she says. 'h-huh? W-what do ya mean?' patricia is getting nervous.'i think...that your dreams are actually memories...' xion explains her. 'n-no way! That can't be true! That riku! And! And sora is in them too! And and!' patricia is breathing hardly. 'it's true...i know that since...you are in my dreams...riku told me a month ago that my dreams are sora's memories...and you are in those memories...' xion stands up and helps her standing up. 'h-how are you sure it's me?' patricia doesn't feel very easy right now. 'i heard your name...i heard, patricia! I will find you! Wherever you are! Together we find riku and kairi!' xion imitates the voice. 'sora...' patricia looks at the ground. 'see? You remember.' xion laughs a little. 'but...what are you doing here?' patricia asks her again since she avoided te question the first time. '...i'm running away from the organization...' patricia now notices she's wearing her hood. 'what? Why?' patricia is getting more confused. 'i know you know about sora that he's sleeping so namine can restore his memories, i have to be defeated so he gets the memories back who are inside me, roxas is part of his memories too.' xion explains. 'and cuz i'm changing...' she removes her hood, a face that looks exactly like sora's comes out. 's-s-sora!' a tear escapes from her eye. 'i have to be defeated...' xion pulls her hood over her head again. 'n-no! I don't want you to go! Why is everyone leaving!' patricia falls with her knees to the ground. 'you're not safe here...i'll ask roxas to protect you and take you away from here' she opens a corridor. '(but my friends! I promised anouk to never leave her alone! I guess...i should pick her up later then...)' patricia doesn't answer on xion. 'xion...where's riku...why isn't he here...' she asks her. 'don't worry i don't think he wants to leave you alone.' she smiles at her as a tears escapes. 'xion...i will always be with you...you're one of my best friends...i won't forget you...' she says, she knows she can't change xion's choice. 'i know you will...' xion smiles and leaves. Patricia stands up and walks to the lake. 'i guess i shouldn't go home...mum will get mad and keep me inside...i can't let her do that.' with a sad voice she returns to the tree and waits for riku. 'why didn't you tell...' she falls asleep, still with alot of stress. When she wakes up she sees a fimiliar face, it's riku's. 'riku!' she hugs him as she sees him. 'patricia...i'm sorry...' he escapes from her hug and walks to the lake not looking at her. 'riku...why didn't you tell...' she stands up saying sad. 'tell what.' he says cold. 'don't pretend you don't know! You know where i'm talking about! You knew we knew each other already! You knew i was kairi's sister! You knew i was supposed to be on the destiny islands! And you knew that i was the one who got mad when you took sora's keyblade...' patricia couldn't hold her tears any longer. 'so you found out...' he walks to her. 'take me with you! Don't leave me alone again!' patricia is looking at him with a high blush and with tears coming out her eyes. Riku removes his bandage from his eyes. 'i'm sorry...i can't take you with me...it's to dangerous, maybe this place is better for you...' he then says. 'riku! You promised me that once you find me you wouldn't let me go anymore!' she is crying more now. 'the first promise i can't keep.' he says cold. 'why are you always acting so cold!' patricia turns away. Riku turns her back and unexcpected hugs her. 'there is one thing you don't know about me...(how much i love you...)' he let her go and opens a corridor, when he go trough it he quickly closes it so she can't follow him. 'he leaved...again...' patricia turns her face to the ground, she gets filled with sadness, hurt and madness. A strong light is coming to her hand, it's getting a form and before she knows it she summoned the keyblade. 'RIKU!' she runs to the tree and begins hitting it. When she's ready she has carved a text in it. 'leaving to the disney worlds, where i was supposed to be.' you can read. 'i will find you...you, kairi and sora...' a dark corridor opens behind her.
