Okay, this is actually a really good chapter in my opinon. And this time it isn't in italics! WHOO!

Facing the Facts

Kairi turned back to Sora mortified. "Why, Sora? Why would you…" Sora started to shake his head. "It…It wasn't me Kairi. It was 'HIM'! I tried to stop I really did. But he just…I just…oh god, what have I done?" Sora took his face into his knees and started to shake uncontrollably. Kairi stood up and started to walk away but Sora grabbed onto her wrist. "Kairi, please…" Kairi looked at Sora and saw loads of sadness and regret in his eyes. All she could do was give him a faint smile and walk towards everybody. When Kairi yanked away from Sora gently, his world fell apart. He was alone. One of the Nurses, Tifa, Walked over to Kairi and put her hand on her shoulder. Tifa then turned to the confused and lost staff.

"Okay, here's how it is. Some of you help with Selphie and the rest deal with Sora." Kairi looked up. "D-Don't touch him. Just leave him alone, he'll be fine. Right now we should figure out what to do. We can deal with the rest later." Tifa looked at Kairi shocked to how she was taken this. "Well, since Sora is officially Kairi's patient…whatever she says goes. Off you go then." Tifa then shooed everyone out except the people who were taking Selphie away. Tifa looked back towards Kairi to see her staring at Sora, unsure of her next step. She let out a sigh.

"Kairi? I think we need to talk." Kairi nodded and left the room with Tifa and headed towards the conference room down the hall. Once they got there, they took their seats next to each other. Two Doctors walked in as well. "Kairi I know what you want to think, however we need to face some of the facts here. Sora has done something totally off the charts here. It's time to come to realization that maybe, Sora isn't who he says it is."

"Enough with this whole Sora is Vanitas crap!" Kairi's emotions at this point just started to boil. "He isn't Vanitas! It doesn't take a scientist to figure that one out!" Tears started form in Kairi's eyes.

"I understand what you're feeling Kairi. Trust me, I do. We need to do something though, but we can't until we get your approval." Tifa took Kairi's hands. "Look, we need to keep people safe here…especially Sora. Right now; everyone needs to be safe. So with that said, I think you know what we need to do." Kairi looked at Tifa. She was right. There was only one place they will take him she was sure of it. Kairi slowly nodded. Tifa looked over to the Doctors and nodded. They left the room quickly and headed towards Sora's cell. "Everything's going to be alright Kairi."

Kairi got up and walked out of the room. A stretcher passed her with Selphie's body underneath a blanket. Then she heard struggling close by and looked over to see Sora being hauled down her direction by the two Doctors who were in the room with her. Sora was struggling to get free. "No, please! Stop it! Where are you taking me! Let go!" Sora kept going on and on. Sora barley even saw Kairi when they passed her. When he did he yanked an arm free from the doctors and reached towards Kairi. "Kairi please!" Kairi looked at the hand stretched towards her to see her deceased friend's dry blood on his shaky hands.

"I'm so sorry Sora…" Kairi held her head down. Sora could see tears running down her face. "Kairi…" Sora was then again hauled down to his new cell. However this time, he didn't fight. He was too crushed by Kairi. Sora was being thrown into his new cell in a new ward. It was much scarier down here. There were no windows, no light, just…Darkness. This place would be perfect for him when he gives in. Sora was thrown into his cell. He heard the door lock. It was one door behind another. The only light he had was a faint light from his door window from one of the lights in the hallway. It was barely even dimed, almost nothing, but better than nothing. Sora could here the other patient's cries and insanities from nearby. He was now truly alone. No one to talk to. Roxas is gone, and Kairi won't even look at him.

Sora looked around his small, dark cell. There was a bed against the wall and a toilet on the wall near the door. He was here, stuck in solitary confinement.

**.*.*.*.*.***.*.*.*.**.*.*.*.**.*.*.***.*.*.***.*.*.*.**.*.*.*.**.*.*.*.**.*.*.**.*.*.*.**.*.*.**.

It's been two weeks since Sora and Kairi have seen each other. Kairi was starting to worry about him. It was her turn to lock up. She waited until she was the last one there and ran to the kitchen. She grabbed a paper bag and filled it with sandwiches, bread, and water, almost everything. She then ran to the staircase of the ward Sora and all the criminally insane were kept. She's never been down there before. She walked down slowly and quickly past everyone's cell, looking for Sora. She didn't dare make a peep. Who knew what would happen. Every door had a file next to it. She had to at least gone through twenty before she found Sora's.

Kairi unlocked the first door with the combination and the second with a key. She opened the door carefully, just in case. There she saw him. Sora was stretched out on the worn out cot. He looked so…thin. Kairi walked in and slowly walked towards him. Sora heard his cell open and someone approach him. He didn't want to turn around. He was snapping, if they so much as touched him he would snap their necks.

"Wait, what? No, I would never hurt anybody…on purpose."

"Sora?" That voice? So soft and caring…could it be? Sora looked over to see it was true. "Kairi?" Kairi nodded. Sora turned and sat on the edge of the bed. "I-I brought you something. Thought you might be hungry." Kairi held out the bag and Sora took it. He pulled out the water bottle and drank half of that before starting on the sandwich. Kairi watched him engulf everything. He must be starving.

Kairi stood there unsure of what to do. She would have to wait for Sora to finish or else she might get caught. "How long has it been?" His voice broke through her like a bullet. He sounded so broken…

"Two weeks." Sora could tell she was fidgeting. "Kairi, I'm sorry. I understand if you're mad at me for…you know. But please understand it wasn't my fault." Kairi shook her head. "I'm not mad. Just scared…"

"Of me?" Kairi shrugged. Sora stood up and walked over to her. Kairi wanted to move but she didn't. It's just Sora. "Kairi, the darkness shares the same feelings that I have with itself. If it consumes me it'll go after anybody who I care for. No one will be safe from me. I know it sounds crazy but it's true. If I let it consume me it would most likely go after you, and I didn't want that to happen. I refused and it tried to take me by force but I wouldn't allow it. Selphie came in to try and help me but I pushed her away. Then I blacked out. When I woke up I saw you and everyone standing there. Then I realized what just happened. What I did. It was all an accident I swear…"

Kairi nodded. "I'll have to see it to believe it."

"That's not going to happen. Not when I'm near you." Kairi looked up at Sora. She saw his gentle face, soaring blue eyes, everything about him was beautiful. Sora was thinking the same thing about Kairi. Kairi then started to shed tears when she started to think about Selphie and how Sora was that day. Sora noticed this and put his hand on her cheek and wiped her tears off with is thumb.

"I know what you're thinking Kairi. I'm not going anywhere." Kairi smiled and leaned towards Sora and kissed him on the cheek. "I know." Sora smiled. "You better finish your food. I have to leave soon." Sora nodded and sat back down on the bed and finished off everything. Kairi sat next to him. Kairi was shocked that how in three weeks she has grown so close to somebody. Especially since they are in an Asylum and your patient. After he finished he handed the empty water bottle and paper bag to Kairi.

"Well, I guess I'll see you again sometime. I don't think I have access to you a lot now." Sora sighed. "That sucks. I'm going to miss you. Who else am I going to be bored with?" Sora smiled which made Kairi smile in return. "I'll see what I can do. Night Sora." Kairi turned around to leave but was stopped by Sora. He held her by her wrist so she wouldn't go. She turned around to be surprised when Sora kissed her on the cheek.

"Good night Kairi." Kairi left and locked the doors and headed upstairs. Downstairs Sora was still blushing and upstairs Kairi was doing the same thing. She headed outside and locked the front doors to the Asylum and drove home. The whole ride she was thinking about Sora.
