A/N: Sorry for delay. After a few people reviewed asking me to continue, I guess it motivated me to actually finish this chapter. Go figure! Dedicated to tr1ckydr1v3er, Azure Terigues, Rose93drarkness, and Evil genius of the COCA.

Hearts of dark

Riku POV

Riku ran down the street with ungodly speed. The darkness was fresh but powerful. It couldn't be from Sora…Could it?

'No. Sora's light' Riku thought.

Then Riku froze.

"Sora!"

Sora's POV

"Darkness?" Sora shuttered.

I will guide you.

Sora raised his head and looked at the figure. His eyes filled with wonder.

You'll work under me. You needn't worry.

Sora shakily stood up and nodded.

Good boy. Now... I need you to go to the docks on your little home. And wait there.

"The d-docks? Oh.. sure" Sora whispered, still a little shaken from what had just happened.

Wonderful. Now go on don't leave me waiting.

-o0o-

Sora's eyes snapped open and he gasped. He pulled himself to a sitting position and stared straight ahead.

'Is all his for real?.. Or not?'

Sora put one hand on his stomach and raised an eyebrow. It didn't hurt, in fact, it felt like any normal tummy would feel in the middle of the night…hungry. Sora smiled a very small smile as he heard his stomach grumble at him.

Sora swiftly swung his feet over the bed but hesitated when it came to standing up.

"Well" Sora said to himself "here goes nothing"

Sora pushed one foot on the ground, nothing. The other had the same result. Wonderful! Sora stood up with a sly smile on his face. Sora took three steps and then and jumped when he heard a noise.

"Stupid! Stupid junk!" Sora cursed as he glared down at the rubber duck that had shrieked as he stepped on it.

'Child'

Sora, startled, when rigid and wide eyed.

'Don't diddle-daddle on useless things. Come to the docks.'

"…Yes sir"

The voice didn't answer back and Sora stiffly left his room and walked down the hall. Sora reflected his dream and shuttered. Another him? Killing himself? Why would he do that to himself?

Shaking his head Sora reached the stairs and hesitated. The kitchen light was on, meaning his mother was awake.

'Super' Sora thought with a scowl.

Sora took slow and deliberate steps down the stairs trying not to make a sound.

"Sora?"

'Crud'

Sora stared at his guardian his eyes icy. Selene stood with one hand on her mouth, her eyes were red and swollen.

"Sora, baby! What are you doing up? Why aren't you sleeping? Do you feel alright?"

"I feel fine"

"Sora"

Sora tried to walk past his mother, but she grabbed his arm.

"Sora what?"

"I have to go"

"No you don't!"

"I need to meet someone"

"Someone? Who?"

"Mom" Sora cringed and pulled his arm away from her. "Bye"

"What? Sora?...Wait!!"

Sora dashed out the door and sprinted down the street. The night was cool and Sora was only wearing a black t-shirt and some jeans (Somehow, he was out of his bloody clothing and in some new clean ones).

"Sora!"

Riku POV

Sora turned to look at his friend. His eyes blue, but with an odd purple ring bordering his pupil. Riku grimaced at the dark scent that surrounded Sora. Sora stare at him oddly.

"Riku?"

"Sora! What are you doing?"

"Sorry no time" Sora dashed down the street.

Riku sputtered and glared at Sora's back and pursued the boy. It was definitely Sora. But why?

'Dang! When did Sora learn to run so fast?' Riku thought as he tried to catch up with the keybearer.

Sora looked back once and glared at the other teen.

"Sora, stop! We really need to talk!" Riku tried to reason with the boy, but Sora would have none of it.

'Aren't you persistent'

"Wha?" Riku gasped in shock.

Suddenly the ground went black and bubbly. Long arms and bodies began to pop out.

"Heartless?!" Riku skidded to a stop to avoid running into the large mass of darkness.

Riku looked up and hissed angrily. He was losing Sora.

"Sora!" Riku swiped at a pouncing heartless. "Wait!"

Sora's POV

'Whoa' Sora thought as he saw the Heartless come out of the ground.

'In do time, you too can control the heartless'

Sora remained quiet. Should he go back and help Riku, or continue his way to the docks? After a quick decision he decided the docks werethe more pressing matter and left Riku to fend for himself.

Sora's feet pounded on the cobblestone as he ran, clouds began to build in the night sky threatening to rain. Sora could see the docks and pressed on further, nervousness and worry filling him. But Sora was thankful, at least it was something. The docks were wet and slipperyas Sora stepped on them.

'Good boy, wait there'

Sora nodded almost sadly.

'What am I doing?' Sora thought.

Riku's POV

"Damn it!" Riku slashed at the heartless. "I don't have time for this"

The heartless just kept coming, and Riku decided it was time to make a run for it. Riku's eyes scanned the mob and saw an opening to his right. Riku dashed at the vulnerable spot, his Way To Dawn slicing any heartless the just so happened to be in his path. With the heartless on his tail, Riku ran as quickly as his legs could take him. He had to reach Sora before anything happened to him!

Riku's felt himself fill with relief when he saw Sora just standing at the docks. He was staring at the ocean that was showing sighs of an upcoming storm.

"Sora!" Riku shouted.

Sora turned around and grinned slyly.

"Sora what are you doing?!" Riku ran up to Sora angrily, forgetting the heartless.

"None of your business, Riku" Sora said mockingly.

"Of course it's my business" Riku growled. "Your not supposed to be out of bed!"

"You're the one that put me there" Sora sneered.

"No- wha?" Riku sputtered.

"If you hadn't punched me I won't have passed out, your so mean Riku"

"Don't give me this guilt trip!" Riku tried to defend himself, but Sora was right. It was his fault.

Sora made an amused hum and looked past Riku.

"Did you forget something Riku?"

Riku didn't even have time to turn around. The heartless tackled Riku and pinned him down. They paid no heed to Sora, who glanced down at Riku with a chuckle.

"So forgetful"

Sora's POV

Sora sighed and looked away from Riku.

"What's taking so long?" He muttered.

'So impatient'

Sora looked at the sky, as if the voice was from there.

Suddenly from the end of the dock a large black portal appeared. Sora held his breath, why did this feel so wrong?

'Come Keybearer'

As if he had no control over his own body Sora walked toward the dark portal

'I-I'm sorry, Riku' Sora thought as he passed through the portal.
