Chapter 2
"{Faeries} could make themselves seen or not seen at will. And when they took people they took the body and soul together."
--The Fairy Faith in Celtic Countries
by W.Y. Evans-Wentz (1911)
Riku could hear his latest prey's heart pound furiously as he left the brunette at the mercy of his loud friend. The question was why was his heart pounding so fast like that? Most mortals he chose did the same thing but out of flattery, of lust. This Sora, he liked the name seeing as it fit the boy quite well, his heart pounded in fear and near terror. Riku could see it in the boy's endless blue eyes. It made him feel guilty for about a second until he shook it off and let his mind come up with ways to get the boy to open up to him. He'd never had a problem like this and only one mortal had only ever escaped him…
"He's terrified." A voice floated up next to him and he gave his companion a slight glance noticing her frown.
Namine.
Riku thought back to Sora's blanched face and only nodded. The boy usually had vibrant healthy tanned skin and his usually bright beautiful blue orbs were clouded in fear. It made him seem so innocent. Maybe delicate and fragile. Like he needed someone to protect him. Riku planned to be that someone.
Of course he had to change a few things first though. Like the boy's fashion sense. It wasn't horrible but it could use some help. The boy's chocolate hair seemed natural and to that Riku was grateful. Mortals these days always tainted their skin and hair with nasty chemicals, changing it so it took on an artificial edge. Sora' height was to his liking too, he came to about Riku's chin and he imagined they would fit quite nicely together.
He imagined Sora would be quite a challenge too. He wasn't as tame and submissive as he let on. His angry snappish retort to his advances proved that much. He was a light creature with a tame dark tendency. He was perfect.
Most of the mortals he'd chosen in the past were nice enough having come from somewhat bad pasts. The Twilight Prince or Queen should be able to see the light in any dark situation right? It made sense at first…
"He doesn't like you. Let this one go." Namine's voice was steely but it held a softness to it too, probably for Sora.
Riku resisted rolling his eyes. "So what?"
Namine's eyes blazed and he again resisted the urge to chuckle. He eyed her through his bangs and he could see the changes in her. Her once vibrant blonde hair had dulled and her once bright blue eyes had slowly over the years turned dark violet until they seemed more of a black. She was still as beautiful as when she had taken over as the Heartless Girl. 'She's beautiful…but she's not mine. Not like Sora will be.'
"Riku." She growled, the darkness and lament she held slowly seeped from her, causing Riku to slightly flinch. "He. Doesn't. Like. You!"
"He will." Riku looked around for one second before shaking off his glamour and becoming invincible once more. With that done he said the words that had sealed the fate of so many mortals. "A far off dream that's like a scattered memory, a scattered memory that's like a far off dream…I want to line the pieces up—his and mine."
With these words Sora's mortality began to fade. Unless he became Heartless Boy, he was Riku's now.
Namine could only watch on sadly.

Sora quickly took his leave of Tidus and headed home. He felt his arms and noticed they had goose bumps on them. He stopped and took a moment to steady his heartbeat and will away his flushed face. It wouldn't be good if he went home looking like this. There would be questions …and answers Sora couldn't possibly know.
Just as Sora was getting ready to start moving he spotted more of his nightmare. Four fey were slowly making their way to him and Sora quickly starting moving again. He discreetly looked back and noticed they were still on his trail. Two bird fey, one human looking fey and what seemed to be a wolf type fey.
He felt like crying and laughing at the whole situation. First Silver makes his move and now this!
All this coupled together made Sora lose his sense. All he wanted right now was to be at home! Safe and sound! Not chased by these…creatures!
Not thinking right then Sora did the one thing he shouldn't have done.
He bolted.
He ran and as he looked back again he noticed that several other fairies had taken to chasing him too. So now there were like seven in total. Sora closed his eyes and looked for somewhere to run to, somewhere with tons of iron.
Just as he was about to turn into a corner he noticed another fey come up on his other side. They fey looked to be lion like in nature and he growled at those chasing him and they stopped. Sora made it seem like his stop was coincidental.
They stopped chasing him. Weird.
He began to walk once more and noticed that he still had one more stalker on his trail. It was the wolf fey.
The somewhat dog-shaped fairy lopped beside him. She took to sniffing his hands and it took all his self-control not to snap his hands away. He looked around and to his surprise he had made it home subconsciously. He stepped up to his door and he heard the wolf fey whimper. Turning towards the door and getting out his key he couldn't help but smirk. His uncle had asked permission but they were able to install an iron door. Their windows were also made of steel and iron and so were may things in their home.
Once inside he locked the door and held back the urge to slide down the door and weep.
Riku.
He shuddered as he pictured the silverette's eyes burning a hole into him, like he could see right through him. He also remembered Riku's companion and remembered what she said.
'Poor mortal' she had said. But why? Obviously those two were court fey seeing as they could withstand so much iron and steel…
But why!?
Soft padding sounds alerted him to the fact someone was coming...but wait...since when could he hear something as soft as walking?
"Sora? You okay? You look sick; maybe you should sit down…" his uncle's voice drifted to him and Sora's eyes snapped open. He didn't even realize that he'd closed them.
Blue eyes clashed with blue eyes as he eyed his uncle. The man seemed to be in the middle of making dinner because he had a spoon in his hand. The man's blonde hair mirrored Naruto's…but that was a given seeing as he was Naruto's father.
Minato Namikaze.
"'M fine." Sora said quietly. Minato was a great guardian…a great man. That's why it hurt Sora so bad when something like this happened. He hated being a burden…
"Sora…" Minato sighed. How he wished that his nephew would open up to him…the boy was practically another son to him! But alas…he would give him space and only hoped that one day Sora would come to him on his own.
"Iruka's here…so are Jiraiya and Tsunade. It's Friday…remember? Big dinner?" Minato said with a smile. "Leon might show even…"
Sora looked away. Leon never showed up. Sora blamed himself. He looked too much like his father Cloud…and it probably hurt and angered Leon. After all…Cloud was the only one Leon had ever fully let in…ever loved.
"I'll get ready…I'll be a minute." Sora sighed and shook off his fears and worries. Tonight was a special night. No need to worry. So he pushed Riku to the back of his mind and ran upstairs after giving his uncle a cheerful smile.
Minato watched as Sora leapt up the stairs and sighed again. He might as well been watching Cloud…how he missed his little brother. Turning back to the kitchen he began to finish dinner.
All he could do was hope for the best after all.
