Distrusting friendship

Riku's POV

"Sora!" Riku shouted as he dived for his falling friend.

He was able to catch Sora before he hit the water. He stared down at his best friend angry replaced with fear. Sora was breathing hard and a trickle of blood came from his mouth.

"Oh god" Riku whispered as Kairi screamed in panic.

Riku carried his friend (bride style) to the shore; Kairi was crying her eyes out and chanting to herself.

"Kai!" Riku shouted at her to get her attention.

"Y-yes?" Her voice shook.

"Get the boats ready we have to get him back to town!" He was panicking, opposite of what he usually was.

Kairi froze for a moment then nodded quickly and dashed to the docks. Riku ran after her slowed by the weight in his arms.

'Sora…please be alright!' He thought as he ran.

Sora's POV

"Ow" Sora rubbed his head and gazed at where he was.

Darkness everywhere. Sora could see himself but nothing around him except himself.

"Where am I?"

Your heart

"What?"

Odd isn't it? Your heart is tainted.

"Tainted?"

Why yes!

"How?"

Who, what, where, how, when. You ask too many questions!

"…"

Where are my manners? Let me introduce myself.

The sound of footsteps came to Sora's ears. He turned and saw what had been haunting him.

Riku POV

Riku watched as the doctor stepped out and gesture for Selene. She quickly stood up and walked over and quietly talked the doc.

'It's all my fault, if I didn't do that he would be fine' Riku thought and looked down at his hands.

"Riku" Kairi spoke "It isn't your fault"

"But it is! If I-"

"No" Kairi said firmly them softened. "He was hurt by something else"

"…"

Kairi sighed. It was no use. Convincing Riku was impossible.

"Selene!" Sora's mother walked back to them looking pale "Is he alright?"

"Internal bleeding" She sat down then burst into tears.

"I-I don't know h-how it happened! I checked up on him last night and he seemed fine!"

Kairi comforted Selene the best she could. Riku was lost in thought.

'He was fine…Maybe he was attacked?'

Riku turned to Selene.

"Is it alright if I go see him?"

Selene looked at him and slowly nodded. Riku walked up stairs to doorway of Sora's room. He felt his heart sink when he saw Sora passed out on his bed. Riku sat on Sora's bed and watched his friend, he let a sad sigh escape.

Riku, do you know what it means to be empty?

'I don't know Sora, I really don't'

Sora POV

Sora took a step back, fear filled him to such a level that he felt like his blood was icy.

Now child, don't be afraid. I'm here to help you

"…"

Join me, everything will be fine.

The figure held out his hand.

Don't be afraid. Darkness is the only option.

Sora stepped towards the person.

Darkness will fill you.

Sora took a step forward but froze.

"What about mom? Kairi and Riku?"

They don't understand. They think you're insane, not I Keybearer. I understand.

The figure smiled sweetly. And Sora took another step towards him. He was only three feet away from the figure.

I will guide you.

Sora outstretched his hand

You will not be empty.

Sora grabbed his hand.

Riku POV

Riku was walking home alone. He left Sora's house filled with guilt. He was taking the long way to home.

"Empty… was Sora trying to tell me something?" Riku thought.

Suddenly Riku felt a presence. It was dark and evil. Riku turned to where it was coming from.

"No… Sora?"

Sora's POV

Sora felt pain then cold. When Sora took the figure's hand a large magic circle surrounded them. It erupted in a purple light that was blinding. Sora shouted in pain as the light concentrated on him. The figure just smiled.

The light stopped abruptly and Sora felt like he never had before. He released the figure's and fell to his knees, breathing hard. He looked down at his hands in bewilderment.

Powerful isn't it? Child, welcome to the darkness.
