Light Up the Darkness

I do not own anything of Kingdom Hearts, just my OC and plot revolving around the world created by square enix.

Chapter Eight:

Ellie's POV:

As I sat there in the place I never wanted to leave, Sora's embrace, a group of Heartless surrounded us. I pushed Sora away and made sure he was behind me. My body still hurt all over but I was determined to protect Sora at all costs.

I struggled to get up, calling my keyblades as I stood. When I finally stood I tried to suppress the pain long enough to kill the little bastards, but no such luck. My keyblades were too heavy for my weak arms, and I dropped to one knee. Sora quickly shot up.

"You're not ready yet. You're still really weak. You saved me, now it's my turn to return the favor. I won't let them hurt you, I promise." Sora said stepping in front of me.

"Wait. Here take this, it's much stronger then yours anyway, but I want it back, you hear?" I stood long enough to give Sora my Oblivion. 'My most prized possession… in the hands of someone else. It's a damn good thing I like him or we would both be toast,' I thought as he took it from me, giving me a quick smile.

Sora defeated the Heartless in breaking speed. 'Wow, that would have rivaled even my speed,' I thought as Sora turned to me with the goofiest grin on his face.
"I told you I wouldn't let them hurt you. Now come here an give me some sugar, sugar." Keeping his goofy grin.

"You are the corniest person I know. 'Give me some sugar, sugar'? Are you kidding me? Haha, I wouldn't give anyone anything saying that to me. Sorry love, but I guess you'll just have to wait until you come up with something better to say to me, then we'll talk." I said between fits of laughter. "Now give me back my Oblivion before I kick your ass." I smirked.

Sora's POV:

"…Now give me back my Oblivion before I kick your ass." Ellie smirked. 'Damn she has a sexy smirk. Hmm time to fight sexiness with complete Sora-ness!' I thought then smirked myself.

"You want it? You'll have to catch me first!" I heard her groan as I took off at lightning speed towards the front of the gummi ship.

I knew she didn't have the energy to chase me but damned if I knew that she cared for her Oblivion more then anything. I turned my head expecting nothing, but I saw Ellie close at my heels. "Oh crap!" I shouted.

"I'll get you for this Sora! When I catch you, you are sooooooo dead!" Ellie shouted closing the gap between us.

As I rounded the corner to the deck of the ship. Ellie tackled me from behind. She flipped me so that I was laying back against the floor, with her sitting on my stomach. Though she wasn't heavy I wanted to make her feel bad for hurting me.

"Ow, Ellie. You're crushing me!" I said.

"Good you brat! Give me back my Oblivion and I won't hurt you too badly." Ellie said smirking slightly.

"But Ellie…" I whined. "I liked it sooooooo much. Couldn't I just have it? I mean, I did so good with it." I batted my eyes, pouting.

"Hmm, let me think…" she paused. "Oh al- NO! You little thief, give it back or I'll rip you in two!"

I laughed at her. 'Oops, that wasn't the right thing to do.'

Her expression turned devious. Her lips sprouted a coy smile. "Ones born of heart and darkness, hunger for every heart until the door opens. Maybe I'll call them and have them devour yours. I don't need you that much."

I gasped. "You wouldn't do that. It's your heart they would be taking. You wouldn't sacrifice yourself, then just give it all away. Would you?" I said in a small voice.

She laughed. 'Uh oh.' "Of course I would. My heart was the only thing holding me back!"

I formed a plan as quickly as possible. I didn't know if she was kidding or not, but all I knew is I sure hoped she was. I put the Oblivion aside, and put both my hands on her waist. She stopped laughing and raised an eyebrow at me. I began to pull her down so I could whisper in her ear.

"Ellie, you wouldn't want to do that, and I know it. You're just trying to get your way, but guess what, it won't work that way." I pulled her away a bit, to see the shocked look on her face, which turned to confusion. I smirked and pulled her to me once more, crashing my lips to hers.
