What Have You Done?

by XionTheBlackRose

Riku realizes he's killed Sora, but not only that, he may have put Sora's soul in eternal danger. Sora's ghost haunts Riku, trying to find the reasons behind his murder, and he has to figure it out quick, or he'll be swallowed by the Abyss, where he will suffer eternally. He must find and make peace with Riku's inner turmoil before it's too late, otherwise he'll be lost forever.

10. Don't Let Him Kill Me Part One

"So you're the one doing this to him." I growl at Ansem.

Ansem turns his cold golden gaze on me and smirks, "I am. Wow.. Such anger and darkness within you."

"Stay out of my soul!" I yell in a sudden wave of fear.

The fear passes as quickly as it had come. I frown, "Let him go, you devil."

"He has to find his own peace, Riku. I can't hide it form him, I just make it harder to find. Harder to get to." he replies.

"Well stop it!" I growl.

Suddenly, I realize something, "It was you that day. You made me angry, you pushed me over the edge."

"I did." he smirks, "I made you kill him so I could steal his soul when his time ran out."

"I'll kill you." I clench my fists, "I'll kill you!"

"Riku.." Sora puts his hand on my shoulder and I look at him.

"Don't. If you get angry here he can use that against you." he says.

I scoff, "Aren't you angry? He's the reason you're dead!"

"I cannot be angry here. The anger I've been facing is his fault. I was never angry at you. I was sad." he replies.

Ansem claps slowly, "Oh, how sweet. The best friends make up."

I glare at him, "Get out of my subconscious."

"Why? You can't kill me in here, you can't kill me out there, why should I?" he asks.

"Because you don't belong here." I growl.

He laughs, "Neither does Sora."

"Leave Sora out of this." I step towards him and he grins, "Yes, come at me, Riku, let me further into your lingering will."

"What?" I step forward, but not on my own accord.

Sora gasps, "Riku, get away from him!"

He tries to pull me away, but when he tries to grab my arm something around me burns him and he jumps back. I look at him in confusion and horror. Ansem chuckles darkly and stands up. I try to move away but suddenly I'm stuck.

I gasp and stare at Ansem in horror, "What did you do to me?!"

He laughs, "I've attached myself to your lingering will."

"NO!" Sora screams.

"Let me go." I growl.

"What if I don't?" he laughs.

"You can't! He's still a living soul!" Sora screams.

"Not for long." Ansem laughs, "I wonder how your parents will feel when they come home and you've killed yourself? And they'll find a note saying the murder of your best friend was too much to bare. And so you had to let the blood drain."

"No!" Sora and I scream together.

And I'm shaking now, I can't stop shaking. I can't get my feet to move, why wont' they move?! I look up at him and he's grinning down at me and he says, "Your body belongs to me now." and then he disappears and suddenly I hear a scream, and everything's dark, and that scream, I know it.

It's mine.
