Peace! It's 9:30 in the morning! Rock on to this shit. :P
While I wait in the Gummi Ship I try to keep a clear head and keep from passing out or some kind of crap like that. All I know is that I did end up falling asleep, but I didn't pass out. I actually let myself go to sleep on that one. When I woke up there was a dog type thing bent down next to me.
"Ah!" I cried and jumped up. "What the hell is going on!"
"Sorry, didn't mean to scare you!" The dog said. "Just making sure you were okay. We came back and you were on the floor."
"Yeah, 'cause I was sleeping," I rubbed my head and ran my hands through my hair. God I needed a shower. But I doubted there was one anywhere close to where we were now. Wait, where were we?
I stood up. "Why are you here? Are we going somewhere else now?"
He nodded. "Sora's coming. He had to…" and at that moment Sora walked in. "Oh! There he is!" The dog stood up and looked over at Sora. "I'm going to go start the Gummi ship with Donald. He's probably about to throw a fit."
"Fine," Sora said, and came over toward me. He took my hands and stared into my eyes. "How do you feel? Wait, Airie, y'okay?"
"What?" I asked.
"You're blushing," he told me.
I hid my face away from him and let my hair cover my face. "Uh s-sorry."
Sora laughed. "It's okay it's cute." he brushed the dark strands of hair off my face. I looked up at him and found his lips pressed against mine. They lingered there, for a few moments, until we heard someone say, "Ready to go Sora?"
I broke away from him and found the duck, Donald, climbing down the ladder. He didn't see us kiss, but when he did turn his head Sora still had his arms around my waist. "Um Sora?"
"I'll be up in a minute," Sora said letting go of me. The duck only nodded and started to go back up. Sora looked back over to me. "I gotta go up there, you'll be okay down here?"
I nodded and sat down, raising my arms in defeat. "Keep me prisoner why don't you!" I smiled when Sora laughed. It was meant to be a joke, after all.
He shook his head. "Okay, see you in a while."
"Bye," I told him. But as soon as he climbed the ladder, I was sucked out of reality again.
"Why? It was mine!"
"Know this," A voice says.
A man in a hood appears out of no where.
"The heart that is true and strong shall wield the keyblade." he continued.
"What? You're saying my heart's weaker than his?"
"In that instance, yes, you're heart is weaker."
"How do I fix that?"
"It's very simple," the voice said. "You give in to darkness. Accept the darkness, give it a home."
My head snapped up and I found that the ship had landed and we were somewhere else. I stood up and walked over to the window. What I found was a type of castle waiting outside. The door was unlocked, so I walked right out. The town was quiet. Or, what was left of the town. I could only make out a castle and a few paved streets but they dead-ended and didn't finished.
I walked around before entering the castle. There, I found Sora on the ground, clutching his chest. Donald and Goofy were lying on the floor close to where I had come in, and then the others. Kairi was on the ground, unconscious, and Riku, there was something different about him. Not only were his clothes different, but when I hear him speak next he sounded like he was possessed or something. He raised his keyblade above his head and was about to bring it down on Sora and that's when I started to freak out.
"Sora!" I screamed. He saw me and summoned his keyblade, blocking Riku's attack on him.
"Forget it! You're not taking Kairi's heart!" He demanded. "Snap out of it Riku!"
Before I knew it, Sora and Riku were fighting. I couldn't do much but watch. When I got a good chance I focused on Riku and forced an explosion on him. He dodged and glared over at me. He charged over at me, but by that time he was already to weak to fight much longer and when I side-stepped out of his way he fell to his knees and disappeared. I gasped, my mind reacting before everything else. What did I do? Oh, god what'd I do?
I turned to Sora. "What's going on?"
He shook his head. "Something's wrong with Riku. We can't get Kairi to wake up and Riku says I have her heart. That means that we can't complete the keyhole unless we unlock her heart. And that means that I have to…"
"Sora, no!" I commanded, grabbing his arms and staring him straight in the eyes. His blue ones contrasted greatly with my black ones, and I realized just now how different we are.
"Airie," Sora pulled my arms off his and pinned them to my sides. "Calm down. I'll see you again. Just calm down and close your eyes."
"No!" I cried, tears running down my face. "Please, Sora don't do this…" But Sora didn't listen to me. He nodded to something behind me and Goofy was instead holding my arms to my sides instead of Sora. I struggled against him, watching Sora walk toward Riku's keyblade and pick it up. He looked over at us, smiled, and turned the keyblade's teeth toward him. I watched him stabbed the keyblade into his heart and I immediately dropped to my knees. He faded away into light, and I bowed my head. When I looked up again Kairi was standing up in front up of me. She placed a hand on my shoulder and tried to talk me into saying something but I didn't have anything inside me to say. I think she was talking to me, I couldn't tell, but I bowed my head yet again and didn't look up until Goofy let go of me. When he did I tackled Kairi onto the ground and punched her. Over. And over. And over again. Goofy and Donald pulled me off of her and I started to cry again.
"Kairi I'm sorry," I cried. "I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry…"
"Airie," she murmured. Kairi wiped the blood away from her nose. "It's okay, I'm sorry for you. I know you felt like I was taking him away from you, and I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that, and the thing is, I knew that you were feeling like that. I guess I just.." she looked down and shrugged. "I felt like I was alone in the first place and I wanted them to be my friends. I didn't know you even existed until a few years ago."
I nodded. "It's…it's fine. He always liked you more than me in the first place," I looked up at her and smiled.
Kairi gave me a strange look. "Airie, Sora always told me how much he liked you and wished you would come hang out with us. Sure, I was a bit jealous, I mean look at you! You're beautiful…" she bit down on her lip. "Maybe I wanted Sora all to myself. And I wanted to talk to you about it the one day he told me…well, it's a secret, I can't tell you."
A bit happier, I smiled again and got up onto my knees. "Tell me!" I begged.
She opened her mouth to say something, but a dark portal opened behind her and a man stepped out. He was extremely tan, with orange eyes and silver-ish white hair that hung down to his waist.
"I see you've awakened Princess," he said, and I immediately recognized the voice. It was the one from the last vision I had in the Gummi Ship. The one that had changed Riku. But why was he calling Kairi Princess?
He started to walk toward us, but then he stopped and started to tremble.
"Im-impossible…" he stuttered out. There was light and then Riku came out from it, in front of the man.
"No…I won't let you use me for this!" He demanded.
"Riku?" Both Kairi and I called out. I got to my feet and stared at him.
He held his arms out in front of the man and looked over at us. "You gotta run! The heartless are coming!"
As if on cue, the heartless started appearing out of no where, as usual for them.
I looked over at Kairi, she nodded and her, Donald, Goofy, and I started to run.
Oh my god it took me sooo long to write this. Not that I'm a slow writer, (in fact I'm very fast…) but that I never have the time. Oh well, it's up and I'm happy with it. Bye!
