The Fight

Everything was as usual in the Asylum. Well, to them it was. Parts of the Asylum were screaming, others were killing themselves, sometimes lost in their own minds. Kairi was at the front desk checking in, still thinking about last night. Her sister Namin'e still hasn't checked in yet. Ever since she was raped she's been living with their parents, scared to even step outside of the house. Kairi grabbed the tray of medicine and began to walk towards the cells. Kairi approached Sora's door but then stopped. She was starting to get flashbacks from the dream she had last night. Kairi shook it off and unlocked the door. Inside Sora was fast asleep on the bed. His body was turned away from Kairi so she couldn't tell if he was awake or not.

"Sora? Are you awake?" Kairi put the tray on the table near his bed and turned towards him. Kairi sat on the edge of the bed with her hand on his shoulder. Sora stirred and finally opened his eyes. Feeling the warmth on his shoulder, her turned on his back making Kairi's hand lay on his chest.

"Morning…" Said Sora in an exhausted sigh. Kairi looked into his eyes, somehow waiting for them to turn gold. But they never did. They just stayed crystal sky blue.

"I've brought you your meds." Kairi looked towards the cup of water and pills on the metal tray. Sora groaned making Kairi giggle. Sora sat up and took the cup of water in his hands. He then looked at the pills.

"Do I have to take these?" Kairi nodded. "It's regulation."

"What are they for?" Kairi just shook her head. She didn't even know what they were for. Sora took the pills and then looked towards Kairi. She was still sitting next to him.

"Sora!"Screamed Roxas. Sora looked at Kairi trying to make it look like he was not arguing with his alter-ego. She then might think that he's more insane.

"Remember what I said! Don't get attached to this chick! She's playing you…US! I know it!"

"Roxas, chill! Everything's fine. I know what I'm doing…"

"You better!"

Sora finally relaxed. "Sora?" Sora looked up at Kairi. She had that determined look on her face. What was she up to? "Where do you live?" Sora looked at Kairi really confused. Why did she want to know where he lived?

"I-uh lived with my Mom. In a blue house; a street before you hit the beach…"

"What does your Mom do for a living?"

"Oh, uh…She cooks a lot. She basically does everything around the house when I'm gone."

"Where do you go?"

"Out, with friends and to my job."

"Where do you work?"

"I work at a shop by the pier. We catch seafood. We cook it, sell it, market it, you know the usual." Sora didn't care why Kairi was asking him all these questions. But if it made her happy he will answer all of them honestly.

"How much do you get paid?"

"About 50 bucks an hour; I work for 8 hours every other day."

"Wow. That's a good way to gain some cash…"

"Yeah. Especially when all that money burns away just like that…" Sora started to get sad.

"What do you mean?" Kairi scooted closer to Sora.

"I mean, that the money that I earn is for my Mom. She's in the hospital for cancer." Sora looked away upset.

"I'm so sorry Sora…" Kairi put her hand on his shoulder making him look at her. Sora looked at her in the eyes but then something caught his attention.

"What is that?"

"What is what?"

"That…" Sora pointed to the bit mark on her neck.

"Oh, that? Um, it's uh-" Sora cut her off by putting his fingers on the bit mark. He moved his fingers across the mark analyzing it. "I-It's nothing…" Kairi finished.

"Did someone hurt you?" Kairi could hear the anger in his voice. Kairi didn't answer, how could she? She barley even knows what happened herself.

"I'm Sorry…" Kairi said. Sora looked at her, shocked. Kairi got up, grabbed the tray of medicine and walked out the door. Kairi scurried throughout the halls until she hit the main lobby. The main lobby is where some of the patients go to stretch their legs. There are couches, chairs, tables you name it. Kairi was walking towards the front desk when all of a sudden she was grabbed by someone and shot up against the wall. Everyone turned and watched as the tray of medicine fell with a clatter to the floor, and Kairi's head came in contact with the wall. The impact made Kairi lose sight for a second, but it quickly regained.

Kairi looked up and saw a patient with long silver hair pinning her against the wall.

"Morning Nurse." The way he said it was in a dark tone that sent chills through Kairi.

"Get off of me Riku!" Riku stared at Kairi and laughed.

"What are you going to do if I don't?" Kairi struggled to get free but it was to no avail.

"I said get off!" Kairi screamed into Riku's face, seeing if he would get the message.

"No-one is here to help you! So, I want you to do what you are already doing...I want you to scream for me though. If you know what I mean." Riku laughed an insane laugh and tears started to swell up in Kairi's eyes. Kairi knew that it was now her turn to get raped. All she could do was have fear.

Riku leaned in and forcefully connected his lips with hers. The tears started to spill out of Kairi's eyes now. Riku bit her lip making her gasp and slipped his tongue into her mouth. Kairi bit onto his tongue making him pull out in anger. He looked at Kairi and slapped her so hard that he could have broken her neck if it was just a tad harder. The hard smack made Kairi squeeze her eyes shut. Right when Riku's hand made contact she could hear Riku get pushed in an aggressive manner. Riku's body fell onto the ground with a thud at least 5 feet away from where he stood. People gasped in astonishment at how far he was launched. Kairi opened her eyes and saw her savoir.

It was none other than Sora. Although, it wasn't the sweet, kind and sensitive Sora she had just recently met the other day. This was a new Sora, eyes burning with anger and rage. His eyes were no longer crystal sky blue…but almost a hurricane blue with a pinch of Darkness. His eyes scared Kairi more than the situation she was just in.

"Don't…you…DARE touch her!" Sora's voice filled the Asylum, making everyone watch the scene that was unfolding. Kairi jumped at his tone of voice. Sora noticed this out of the corner of his eye, and felt really guilty about making Kairi scared. But Sora was too pissed to advert from the situation right now. Riku stood up and started at Sora.

"You're protecting her!" Riku started at the spiky brunette in confusion.

"Damn straight!" Sora then ran at Riku and launched himself at him. They both fell to the ground with Sora on top of Riku. Sora straightened up and started to punch Riku in the face. Kairi was scared at how Sora's sweet and gentle, innocent voice changed into this voice of Darkness. Riku finally got a hit on Sora catching him off guard. Riku tackled Sora by the waist and charged him into a glass table, sending shards of broken glass through Sora's back. It didn't affect Sora though. Riku landed some punches on Sora, but then Sora kneed Riku in the gut sending him to the ground.

The Doctors finally got through the crowd of patients that have formed and restrained Riku and Sora from one another. Riku calmed down as soon as the Doctors got a hold of him…but not Sora. Sora started to swing his legs and tried to shake his body to get free from the Doctors. Everyone watched at the boy in fear, but not as much as Kairi.

"I'll kill you!" Screamed Sora at Riku, sending chills down everyone's spin. "I'll kill you for what you tried to do to her! Don't you DARE try to touch her like that again! Let go of me! Let go of me so I can ring his goddamn neck!" As the Doctors dragged Sora off to his cell to sedate him, they could still hear his screams of rage. Riku was dragged off to his cell to be locked up for the rest of the day. Selphie ran up to Kairi and threw herself at her, wrapping her arms around her waist. Kairi returned the hug and just sobbed into her shoulder. Kairi was sobbing over the situation that almost happened but she was also crying about Sora. What happened to him?

"Oh my gods…Kairi, are you okay?" Kairi shook her head and cried even harder. Selphie and another Nurse escorted Kairi out of the lobby and into the office, and into a room where no one could hear their conversation. They sat Kairi on a couch against the wall and it seemed Kairi had settled down a bit but she was still shaken.

"Kairi…" The Nurse pressed on. "I know this isn't the right time to bring it up but, after what just happened…You can no longer deny that something's off with Sora…"

Selphie giggled. "Of course something's off with him. He's in an Asylum." The Nurse showed Selphie the file of Vanitas and Sora. "Oh my…Do you really think?" The Nurse nodded.

The Nurse went back to looking at Kairi and continued what she was saying.

"I know you don't want to believe it…"

"He's not…" Kairi murmured. Kairi took in a deep breath in an effort to calm her. "He's not…Vanitas. What happened…He was protecting me? Is it weird that he was acting unlike him? Yes...But…?"

Kairi didn't continue although the Nurse and Selphie knew what she was trying to say. "Excuse me." Kairi got up and marched out of the office and towards Sora's cell. She burst in there with determination but froze the moment she saw him. Kairi closed the door, not forgetting to check if she had the key in her pocket first. Once it was shut she locked it so no-one could get in and turned around to face Sora. Sora was lying on his stomach with his back wrapped in gaws and cloth from the glass shards that were recently in his back. Kairi walked over to his bed, and climbed onto it. She laid out her legs and sat up with her back against the metal-bar headboard. She turned Sora around carefully onto his back, making sure not to cause him any pain. Kairi then laid Sora's head onto her thighs and pulled a blanket from the end of the bed over them.

Sora nuzzled his head into her thighs making her giggle. Kairi ran her hand down his check; across the cuts that have ruined his face. She then ran one of her fingers across the cut on his lip. After analyzing his face, she started to play with his hair. Kairi giggled some more at how his hair seemed to defy gravity. She would push some of the spikes down and watch them fling right back up into place. Kairi didn't know why, especially after what just occurred, but she didn't know why she felt so safe with Sora. Not only that but she felt happy again and free to do whatever she pleased.

Suddenly, she heard banging against the door. She looked over to see in the window of the door Selphie, The Nurse and a few other Doctors desperately trying to open the door. But Kairi had the only key to this cell, so it sucked to be them. They couldn't believe what she was doing with him, even after what happened. She couldn't hear anything outside of the door since it was sound-proof. So she turned her attention back to Sora and started to play with his hair again. Sora opened his eyes just a bit to see Kairi's face right above him, playing with his hair. Sora then realized his head was on her lap and listened to the people banging on the window faintly.

"Aren't you going to open it?" Sora asked tiredly. The stuff they injected him with probably made him tired. Kairi shook her head. "No. Besides; I have the only key to get in and out of your cell."

Sora smiled at Kairi, which Kairi gladly returned. "Thank you Sora…for what you did back there…If you hadn't shown up…"

"Hey, I promised I wouldn't let you get…you know. And I kept it."

"You sure did…"

Sora then realized what he did to Kairi during the fight. "Sorry that I scared you. I was just mad tha-" Kairi silenced him by placing her finger gently to his lips. "I know Sora. I know…"

They stayed like that for what seemed like forever, but really it's only been 6 minutes. The best part was, it was still morning.

"Don't you have to go?" Asked Sora a little depressed. He was really enjoying the head massage that Kairi was giving him. It made him feel relaxed and happy.

"Yeah, but like I said; There's only one key, and I have it. So, I get to leave whenever I choose. And I choose to spend the rest of the day with you."

"But it's like, only 8:30 am…" Kairi smiled. "I know." They stayed like this for a couple more minutes before Sora realized that Kairi was drifting off. Sora sat up slowly which surprised Kairi.

"Lie down Kairi."

Kairi looked over to the door to see the doctors still there, watching them intensely. Kairi smiled at how much she would piss off the Doctors and Nurses of the Asylum if she lay down in bed, curled up next to a patient. Especially, if that patient is who they believe to be a descendant from Vanitas or even BE Vanitas. Kairi turned towards Sora and smiled tiredly. Sora smiled when he immediately knew what she was thinking. Ya know, except for the whole Vanitas part. Kairi laid down onto the bed facing Sora as he laid down facing her. He gathered her up into his arms, smiling as she snuggled into his chest and wrapped her arms around his waist. They started laughing as they heard the Doctors and Nurses flipping out quietly outside.

"I'm probably going to get tazerd for this..." Sora chuckled.

"Well, they won't tazer you if I'm attached to you." Kairi smiled. There they fell asleep in each other's arms. With not a care in the world.

Okay, so this story is actualy coming along great. I'm still trying to figure out how to link Vanitas with Sora but I've got plenty of time to figure that out. Don't worry! Sora will soon transform into Anti-Sora in front of Kairi soon. Just be patient. As you can see from this chapter, Sora is starting to get engulfed in Darkness so again, it will be soon!
