Well, this was a pain to write. It's co-written, by the way. Dorkyducky117 helped me. I was so stuck! Anywho, I got this chapter out and I hope it makes sense and you like it.
Please review! I love them and they keep me motivated. :D
"What are you doing all the way out here?" A deep mocking voice came from in front of me.
"Riku?!? Izzat you?? Thank GOD! I thought I was going to rot!" I sprang from my hiding place, it was behind a rock that sucessfully hid my slender form. Although....my hair kinda stuck out at the top.. Ah well.
I glomped my good-looking buddy with too much hair gel."Calm down, kid. You haven't really been out here that long. Oh, and get off!" He shoved me off and I landed on my rump. I hastily jumped up and remembered that Riku is good with understanding people. Or was it emotions?
"Hummm...." I gazed up at him, my thoughtful look plastered upon my face while he unwillingly dragged me off to wherever we were headed. Hopefully, it's home that he decides to take me.
"What are you staring at, Sora?"
"Your impeccable beauty." Of course, I was joking, but..Riku blushed.
"Geeze."
"What?"
"Oh nothing. Now, why were you really staring?" He brought me to my feet instead of having to drag me all the way to La La Land. (The name I decided to call our mystery destination)
"Uhm, well, I was just wondering what you were good with. People, or emotions."
"Both."
"Both what?" Riku stopped walking. I turned around to face him and put my hands on my head in that common pose I do a lot. (You know the one)
Riku sighed, "I'll help you with your problems, Sora. You just have to tell me about them first."
"OH!" I said surprised. It's not every day that Riku offers to help you. Normally he's stashed away in his room being emo or somethin.
"You know, you're awfully blonde. I'm surprised you don't have a twin that's blonde or something." That was when I stopped walking and started to stare at him incredulously.
"Uhh, Riku?" He turned around and looked at me, paler than usual. "Are you ok?"
"Yes" he said. He swayed a little. Being the awesome person I am, I rushed up to him and caught him before he fell to the ground. 'I have to go get Kairi..'
I started running as fast as I could to her house, hoping with all my might that she would be home.
I got there and knocked on the door frantically.
"Kairi!! Kairi!! Are you home?!?!" She opened the door with a worried look. She looked at me sympathetically.
"You missed me that badly?" Sh gave a little giggle. This is no time to be worrying!!
"No, well, yes, but that's not the point! It's Riku, he-" I looked down at my arms and instead of Riku, in all of it's brown woodish glory sat a log.
'OH MY GOD! Riku turned into a log! Or maybe I left him at the beach..oops.'
"Come with me! I don't have time to go back and get him, then run all the way back here again!"
"Come back where? Go back and get who? Sora, are you sure you're ok?" she asked, laughing a little bit.
"Yes! I'm fine, but Riku's not! We have to go get him, he collapsed!" I said, trying to make sure she understood the importance of the situation.
I turned around ready to speed off back to where Riku was but Kairi caught my shoulder and pulled me back, causing me to fall into her.
We toppled into her house and we both managed to keep our balance until I tripped on a shoe and brought us both down. Somehow, I landed beneath her..even though I was in front of her.. (OH the wonders of this world!)
Kairi giggled.
That's when her scent hit me. Hit me like a brick. OR an anvil would to an unlucky cartoon passerby. Lilacs, dove soap, and something else...something....I just couldn't put my finger on it.
"Sora? You're warm.." She giggled again and squeezed me.
"Huh?" She was hovering over me now which caused me to blush but the feeling didn't stay very long. My rage seemed to grow and grow the more I smelled it.
Then, she kissed me.
It would've been the best kiss of my life, if not for the overpowering disgusting stench and taste of alcohol.
Kairi, was drunk.
Otherwise, the more pessimistic side of me argued, she wouldn't be doing this at all.
I stood up, while Kairi tried to get up with me.
"What are you doing?!" She started crying and flung herself at me. I tried to avoid her, but I successfully failed. She clung on to my shirt and continued to cry, only she started talking.
"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to, it wasn't like..I mean! Sora, please! Look at me!!" I, with a disgusted look on my face, looked down at her. A tinge of pity and loving care arose within me.
"Kairi, why?"
"I...I don't know! I just got thinking and I just couldn't take it anymore. I heard that it made you forget stuff you didn't want to think about and..." She fainted. What was she thinking about? What disturbed her so much that she wanted to forget?
I shoved her off of me, which wasn't smart. Gently picked her up after realizing my mistake, laid her on the couch that was right beside us, and then ran out the door.
What was THAT all about? That wasn't like the Kairi I knew. Why would she do something like that?
I was so distracted thinking about Kairi, that I almost ran right past where I left Riku. I came to a halt and ran over to where he'd collapsed...only he wasn't there. "Riku? Riku, where are you?! RIKU!!!"
"He's not here, kid." I hastily twisted my body around and came face to face with Axel.
"AXEL?! Where did you come from?! I thought you commited suicide!!"
"Yea, well I had to find someway to get the rest of the Organization off my back, didn't I?" he said with some amusement. He turned to the side a little and chuckled.
"Hey, Roxy, why don't you come back with me? I miss you, yanno?" He looked so downtrodden and somehow his feelings, which I'm not so sure if he has them or not, reached deep down into my being and then...I blacked out.
"Whoa! Axel?" Roxas said. "Why am I? How is..What happened?"
"Dunno, shortstuff. I'm just glad to see you again." Axel pulled me into a tight friendly embrace then let go.
"What happened to Sora?"
"He's asleep."
"Not this crap again.."
"No, really. He's asleep. Right there." He pointed to the ground where Sora's small form occupied and smirked at me.
"What's happening?" I noticed my being fading and Axel was dissappearing into a portal.
"I just wanted to see you again. The Organization is still alive. No one died. Zeku used his powers, which were greater than we all presumed, to delude Sora into thinking he was defeating us. I'm sorry Roxas. Riku was taken. By Xemnas..I tried to stop him....I'm so sorry." A tear rolled down his cheek as he was completely taken by the portal.
I was then put back into Sora's soul.
One body, two people acting as one.
I, Sora, awoke with a shock. I remembered everything that happened. Kairi's drunken kiss, our argument, and Riku. Oh, Riku!! He's gone.
