Guys chill. LOL. Oh boy, your comments are making me hyper! Gah! Okay, because of my sudden hyperness, this is going to be an intense chapter. And I think the reason I'm so good at this (Or from what my friend who reviews all my stories says) I have a way of understanding Riku. It's like...I dunno. He's right here beside me, telling me what to type. I know, freaky!

Chapter VII​

Riku's heart stopped for what seemed like hours. Emily looked at him. "Riku, don't do it! Please! I'm not worth it!"

Ansem glared at her. "Be quiet girl," he snapped and thrity heartless surrounded them in a circle. "Well?"

Emily stuggled in the bonds, trying to break free. "No! Don't let him control you! Everyone is control of their own destiny. Even those who are castaways from the light. You always have a choice!"

Riku's eyes were fixed on the ground. Think, Riku. There's always another way out of these things. You just have to concentrate. You can't give up. Ansem may be powerful but he's cocky...that's it! He looked up, unable to believe he was going to try this. "Fine. Just let her go," he said, looking up at Emily.

Ansem smiled. "An excellent choice." He snapped his fingers and the bonds around Emily disppeared. She fell to the ground and ran to Riku.

"No! You can't do this!" She shouted at him. Riku gave her a brief smile that said 'I've got a plan.' She stopped and smiled at him, stepping beside him.

Ansem walked towards them. "I hope you enjoyed her company because it's the last you'll ever have." He reached for Riku when the keyblader whipped his keyblade up, slashing it across Ansem's body. "No! This can't be possible!" Riku jumped high in the air, bringing it down again and the heartless disappeared in a cloud of black smoke.

Riku turned around to face Emily. "See? No problem," he said confidently.

Emily smiled. "I guess you're-" She stopped, her smile fadding. "Riku! Look out!" He whipped around, barely raising the keyblade when everything went black.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Will he be okay?"

"...We're not sure. He seems to be fine but we can't be sure."

"You can't be sure! What's wrong with him?"

"Well...we aren't sure but some tests will tell us."

"Tests? He's not an animal that you can experiment on."

Riku regained his senses slowly. Hearing was first. Two people were talking to eachother. He was sure the angry one was Emily. The other, he didn't recognize. By the sounds of the conversation, it was either a teacher of some scientist. After Castle Oblivion, Riku had enough scientific experiments to last a life time. He was laying on a bed that wasn't very comfortable but right now, it didn't matter if he slept on rocks.

He fluttered his eyes open, feeling weak. "Riku!" Emily startled, running to his side. He opened his eyes all the way and smiled up at her. Emily gave a slight gasp. "Um...Riku, do you feel any...different?" she asked, a little concern sliping into her voice.

Riku gave her a confused look. "I don't know. A little different, now that you say it. What happenned?" It was true. It felt like his sight was darker than usual. And something else was different but he couldn't place it.

Emily sighed and sat down and the foot of the bed. "Well, you turned around and that black cloud that was Ansem...sorta-" she stopped and picked up a mirror. "How about you just look for yourself," she said and held it up for him.

Riku's heart skipped a couple beats. He looked the same except for one thing. His eyes. Instead of their usual aquamarine colour, they were now fiery orange. Emily lowered the mirror and threw her arms around him. "I still can't believe you did that. For me," she said starting to cry.

Riku pulled her away. "Neither can I," he said with a slight chuckle. Over the past few days, it seemed like Emily was the only one who understood him. She somehow knew the troubles he had faced and respected him for it.

A slight cough came form behind them and they both looked over. "Your Magesty!" Riku sat up straighter and Emily moved down to the opposite side of the bed.

King Mickey stood there in an Organization XIII coat. "Welp, how are ya feeling, Riku?" he asked, walking over.

Riku looked at the ground. "I...I don't know," he admitted. For one of the few times in his life, he felt unsure about himself. What was happenning to him?

Mickey nodded. "It's okay. We have time to sort it all out. Anyway, the reason I'm here is because DiZ needs your help."

Riku felt his anger rise. DiZ and his stupid choices and plans. What made him think that Riku would come when he called? He sighed, trying to calm down. "What does he want me to do?"

"I'm not sure. He didn't tell me. He just said to find you and that only you would be able to do it." the King replied and opened the door. "I'll be outside," he added and left the room.

A silence fell between them. "I guess I gotta go," Riku said, breaking it.

Emily nodded. "Yeah. Be careful, okay?"

He looked at her. "Careful? Now what fun would that be?" They both laughed. It felt good to break the tension. Riku got out of the bed and looked at Emily again. "I'll come back to visit."

Emily nodded. "I hope so. I'll look forward to it," she said with a warm smile. "You might see me somewhere else too. You never know who you run into these days."

The keyblader smiled at her. "I'll see you around," he finished and started to wlak out the door.

"Riku, wait." Emily's voice called. She walked up to him and held out a black cloth. "Take this, to remember me."

Riku nodded. "Thanks. I'm sure I'll find some use for it." Emily nodded and hugged him. He thought it was getting a little too emotional for him. After a few seconds, he pushed her back. "I have to go. The King's waiting." Emily nodded and he left the room, leaving Emily alone.

Riku walked outside. "Ready to go?" Mickey said, looking up at him. He nodded and they walked outside together. There was nothing outside.

"Um, your magesty? How are we going to get out of here?" Riku asked a little concerned.

Mickey put his hands on his hips, thinking. "I'm not sure but hopefully something will come to mind soon."

Something in Riku's head gave him the answer. He put out a hand and felt a strange power emit from himself. A black portal opened in front of him. Mickey went beside him. "Where'd you learn to do that?" he asked, looking at it.

Riku looked at his hand. "I don't know but right now, that doesn't matter. Let's go," he said confidently and the King walked into the portal first. Riku turned around and looked up at the school. Emily was looking from a window. He gave her a wave and stepped out of the safety of the school and into the dangers of adventure...

THE END​

YAY!!! Awsome plot twist! *sings with RikuStalker* Riuk has a heartless! Riku has a heartless!!! Awsome chapter!!!

I'm glad you guys like the story so much! Anyway: next chapter!

Chapter VI​

Riku looked at his greatest enemy with wide eyes. How was this happenning? "I-I thought I killed you," he stammered.

Ansem laughed. "Oh, please. You think that a child could bring me down?" Emily was behind him, making muffled noises from the piece of cloth in her mouth. "I must say, you are all too predictable. Even someone your age would figure out to capture this girl and use her as bait." The heartless looked Riku in his eyes. "But you alrady knew that, didn't you? You knew that this was a trap and still you came. Is the light starting to penetrate your heart?" Ansem started to circle him while Riku made sure they were the same distance apart. "But the light is for the weak, isn't it?"

Ansem caught Emily's confused look in his eye. "Ah, but your new beau doesn't know that does she? She doesn't know what her dear hero has done in his past. All the risks he's taken." He snapped his fingers and Emily appeared beside him, free of her bonds. "So, go ahead Riku. Tell her how you boldly saved your friends and rid the world of evil."

Riku looked down at his keyblade, torn between his anger at Ansem and his friendship of Emily. Emily started to walk towards him, stoppping a few feet away from him. A silence fell for a minute.

"I thought as muched. You can't bring yourself to tell the only one who ever admired you as a hero that you are the exact oppsite of what she thinks. Unfortuanately, I can." Emily whipped around, staring at Ansem with a mix of confusion and anger. "Well my dear, I am delighted to tell you that your little hero actually belongs to me."

Emily turned back around, looking at Riku. The keyblader snapped his head up, glaring at Ansem. "Not anymore," he snapped.

Ansem laughed again. "I wouldn't be so sure. But do not interupt me. The girl is starting to get interested." Riku looked at Emily who was staring at Riku with a different look in her eyes. Was it fear? "Yes, Riku was never a good boy. He cared for another girl but after a while, all he wanted was more power. So he opened his heart even more to the darkness, emersing himself in its power. He managed to subdue it for a time but it was futile. He welcomed it back and gained more strength, telling himself what he was doing was right but little did he know that my shadow will always linger over him."

Emily looked at Riku who was gazing at the ground. She took a step back, a little afraid. The heartless laughed. "See, even now she has doupts about you. There is nothing for you, Riku. Nothing excpet for me that is."

Riku looked up at Emily. "No, Riku. Please tell me he's lying. You wouldn't do that." Emily said, trying to sound positive.

Ansem snapped his fingers again and Emily appeared behind him, chained by invisible bond that held her in place. "Make your choice, Riku. Either join me or your little friend here will be killed."

o.O Where'd Riku go!?! Nooooooo! He'll be back though, right? (Awsome chapter by the way!)

Sorry I've been gone for so long guys! Anyway, I'm updating all my stories so make sure to check in on Story of Light!

Chapter V​

"Riku! C'mon Riku! Open the door! Please!" Emily was in front of Riku's bedroom door, banging as hard as she could. "I know you're in there! You have a piece of tape over the keyhole!" she shouted trying to peek inside. "Open the door! NOW!" she shouted extremely loud and his the door so hard that she punched right through it.

Riku was laying on his bed, staring up at the cieling. He turned and looked at her. "What did you do?" he asked, wide eyed.

Emily opened the door, turning it from the inside. "I-I didn't mean to," she said, trying to think of what to do.

Riku rolled his eyes. "Forget it." He stood, walking past her and down the hallway.

Closing the broken door, Emily ran after him. "Riku, wait! Why won't you talk to me?"

"You know why," he replied, walking away from her.

Emily kept trying to catch up, following him outside. "Well, no. Why didn't you tell me about this?"

Riku stopped, looking at the ground. "I'm not the hero everyone here thinks I am, okay," he said and started to walk but Emily stepped in front of him.

"What are you talking about? You wield the keyblade. Aren't you the keyblade bearer? Aren't you the one who battles the darkness?"

The last word was what triggered it. All of Riku's anger from the day came exploding out of him. "No! I'm not! I'm not the big hero who comes swooping in, saving worlds! In fact, I'm the reason everything got destroyed in the first place!"

Emily looked at him, confused. "What are you talking about?" she asked again.

Riku sighed, relaxing. "Fine, I give up. You want to know the truth, well here it is. When my home got destroyed, I went to the darkness. There you go," he said and brushed past her.

Emily groaned in frustration. "That doesn't explain anything!" she yelled at hi mand stormed off in the other direction.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Riku walked up to his room, the pale moon casting a faint glow on everything. He opened his now fixed door and collapsed onto his bed. What am I supposed to do? Should I tell Emily about Ansem? He threw a pillow at the wall in anger and a piece of paper floated down in front of him.

Riku picked it, reading it through a couple times.

We got your girl and if you want her back, bring your keyblade to the hill north of the school at midnight. Zeth.

Riku rolled his eyes. What a moron. If he honestly thought he'd give up his keyblade for Emily...he was probably right. Riku glanced at the clock on the table. 11:50pm. He'd beter get going. Riku didn't even bother using the door.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A Corridor to Darkness opened at the bottom of the hill. Riku stepped out, looking around. At the top of the hill was a small building a what looked like a battle ring. He walked up the hill, following a worn down path.

Riku walked up to the ring. It didn't look like anyone was here. He climbed up to the ring, since it was a few feet up from the ground. The Way to the Dawn appeared in his hand, glinting in the moonlight. He looked to see Emily in front of him tied up and gaged.

"So, decided to show up?" A tough voice called form behind him.

Riku didn't even turn around. "What do you want?"

Zeth laughed and laughs came from around him as the many members of his gang appeared around the ring, circling Riku. "You know what I want? I want the legendary weapon of the hero of the worlds."

Riku smirked and turned aorund to face him. "Fine, you want? You can have it," he said and threw his keyblade at Zeth's feet. The gang leader picked it up, admiring it before it vanished, reappearing in Riku's hand.

"Hey!" Zeth yelled as it disappeared. "That must be some kinda trick," he glared at Riku.

Riku laughed. "Hardly. Only the chosen wielders can use the keyblade, idiot. You should have known that before you tried to take it."

Zeth stepped forward. "So, hero boy. You're gonna take on all of us?" The members of his gang laughed with him.

"I'm not sure who you're talking to but it's not me." Everyone including Emily shot him a confused look. "You heard me. I'm not a hero," he took a step towards Zeth who pulled out his sword as did all the other gang members. Riku's keyblade glowed black and transformed into Soul Eater. A black pillar shot up from the ground, encasing him for a second. It dwindled down to the ground and Riku stood in his Dark Form.

Riku moved as a blur, hitting Zeth so hard as to send him flying across the ring. "In fact, you might say that I was the villain," he finished. the gang huddled behind their leader, wondering what to do.

Zeth stood, whipping his mouth on his sleve. "I don't know what you are but there's no way I'm gonna lose to the likes of you," he said and raised his weapon. He started to run at Riku, his gang following with half-hearted determination.

Riku smiled, glad to finally take out his anger from the past few days on something. He moved with inhuman speed, hitting the back of the group. Three went down. Two threw down their weapons and ran while the last five stood there shaking. Riku used Dark Aura, hitting the last five right in the middle and knocking them unconcious. He jumped into the air, landing a feet in front of Zeth.

"You still think you're going to win?" Riku asked with confidence.

"Actually, I am almost positive I will," Zeth replied but his voice wasn't his own anymore. Gone as the tough voice of a stupid gang leader. Riku took a step back, unable to belive it. "You seem to be doing better than when you last left me in Castle Oblivion." The voice was cold and unbelievable power coarsed through it, making the hairs on the back of Riku's neck stand on end.

A black wall of fire bursted out of the ground, in front of Riku. He threw up his arms, shielding his eyes from the bright light. The fire died down to reveal a man with long silver hair. He had a white coat and the heartless symbol was worn across his chest. But most fearful of all were his eyes. they were fiery oraange and burned with a desire to kill. "You havn't changed at all Riku. Still relying on the darkness but denying me."

By now Riku was at the edge of the ring. Emily was on the far side opposite him, her eyes wide in fear. There in front of him stood his nightmare. Ansem.

I can't wait for the next chapter!!! Hurry and post!!!

Awsome! This is the greatest!!! And um...that's all I can think of putting... You never cry during sad movies? I cried during a Walk to Remember. (That was a really sad movie :( ))

s'up y'all :p This is the most awsomenessness story ever! No one writes Riku stories (well apart from me and you and like two more people). Riku is just as good as Sora and his stupid little keyblade. Just kidding Sora fans. Anyway, keep writting. I can't wait to see what happens next! (P.S. Nice boss battle! Perfection at its finest ;) ))

KEEP WRITTING!!! GAH!!! IF YOU DON'T I'LL BEAT YOU WITH A BAG OF MARSHMELLOWS!!!

Just kidding but yeah, keep writting because you'll keep getting better. That's how it is with a bunch of people (including myself). Like my first story sucked horribly. No one commented on it because it was so awful. (They told me on the site's shoutbox.) And now, well, I wouldn't say I'm great but I'm okay. (People tel me I'm good but I think they're just being nice... I'm watching you, 01_Kairi and of course the people who told me not to mention them because something bad would happen. I have no idea what that's about.)

So yeah, if you don't kepp writting I will beat you with a bag of marshmellows. (Deja-vu?)

GAH! Stupid sister!!! Why do you ruin my stories!?! Anyway, I'll modify that after this next chapter. And thanks! To think I could put someone out of business...well that's a little shocking...

Chapter IV: Lunch

Emily gave him a smile and they started down to lunch. They walked through the doors and everyone looked at them, whispering to each other. They sat down at a table by themselves. Riku leaned voer and whispered to Emily. "Why is everyone looking at us?"

Emily gave a giggle. "Well, actually and I know this is complete stupidity but people are saying that we're going out."

Riku looked at her, open mouthed. "No way. That's stupid."

Emily smiled at him. "That's what I just said," she added, raising an eyebrow. She looked past him and looked down at the table. Riku looked at her.

"Well, if it isn't the new keyblade hero .The supposes legend amoung us," a tough voice said form behind Riku. He looekd around and saw a gang of guys with the leader up front. All of them were huge (and probably stupid). The leader was the biggest (and the dumbest). He wore a red shirt that had been ripped up with torn up pants.

Riku supressed a chuckle and turned back around but the leader smashed away the table from in front og them, causing Emily to scream. "Hey girl. You shouldn't be hanging out with fakes like this guy. C'mon. We can get to know each other," the leader said, grabbing Emily from her seat.

Riku stood up and the gang laughed. "Wha'cha gonna do, weakling? It's ten on one and not even the hero of the world's could beat those odds."

Riku nodded. "You're right. You should have borught more men," he said, raising an eyebrow. Emilty gave him a pleading look, trying to tell him to stop taunting them. He gave her a smile back and looked at them. "What's wrong? You need ten more friends to take on one guy?"

By this point, everyone was watching them. The leader stepped forward. "You think you can take on Zeth. the most powerful warrior in this school?" The leader was named Zeth. Or so Riku guessed. "I've beaten more people than you've ever met."

Riku smiled, confidently. "And I've killed more monsters of the dark than you'll see in three lifetimes," he countered.

Zeth glared at him. "Alright tough guy. I challenge you to a battle."

"Any time, anyplace," Riku said, stepping up.

Zeth laughed. "How about here and now?" He whipped out a sword and slashed it at Riku, sending him backwards and into emtpy tables. He stood up, whipped blood off his mouth.

"Two can play dirty," he snapped at Zeth. The leader smiled, holding his blade. It was a deep red with black paterns on it. Not as fancy as Riku's keyblade but nice.

Zeth laughed and so did his gang behind him. "You think you can take on a Dark? We are the servants of the darkness. We alone can control it and use its power."

Riku summoned his keyblade and a few people of the gang took steps back. "Let's see it then. Amaze me with your so called power," he said, knowing that Zeth couldn't do anything. He had no true darkness inside him but fake servitude.

Zeth hesitated. "Well, we cannot really use it. We just use its strength," he said, nervously.

Riku shook his head. "So this is what we've been reduced to. People thinking that Darklings cannot use the power any more and we pretend that we have all this power."

People whispered to each other, catching his words. Zeth faultered. "W-we? Y-you can't be-"

"Can't be what? Someone of the dark? And why not?" Riuk was getting annoyed with these pretenders.

Zeth stood straighter, convinced he was right. "Because, you're a Twilight. Only the Dark's can use the power."

Riku sighed. "That's just some stupid house thing you guys do here. If you want proof-" he paused for a second and move with lightening speed, sending a black ball of fire at Zeth. It hit him, sending him flying into the air and crashing into the wall. He skid down and landed on the ground, still conscious.

Zeth stood, throwing his sword on the ground. "N-no. You don't have that power. O-only one being in the universe has that power."

Riku dismissed his keyblade. His eyes glinted orange, making everyone give a little gasp. "Ansem." He turned around and disappeared into a Corridor of Darkness.

I'm glad someone caught that! I went to the bathroom for a second and my sister changes that word! I didn't realize until I pressed post so that kinda sucked. And yeah, I was a little sad that Sora was gone but you know, he had his time. Now it's time for a new generation. Well, I'm starting another story since I desperately need ideas for this one. My new story is kinda funny in a way. Check it out if you guys have time.

I have to say guys, you guys are the best! I mean that from deep in my heart. I never thought anyone would read my story and actually get tolod by a secret group member *wink wink* that my story was good. I sure you've read plenty of Kingdom Hearts stories so you know what's good and what isn't and so fa, I haven't heard anything bad about my story which I think is incredible! I'm very busy doing homework so I unfortuanately can't put up the next topic but I'll put it up tomorrow.

Someone is very smart! Actually, this is hidden in the Kingdom Hearts series but there are clues that can help. Riku isn't afraid of the unknown but he is afraid of death. Like the first Kingdom Hearts, Riku wasn't afraid to give up everything just so he could leave the islands. But in Kingdom Hearts 2, he realizes the importance of his friends.

Anyway, here's the next chapter!

Chapter V: Leaving for the Fourth Time​

After three days of training, Riku gave Thay a day off for him to enjoy. He walked along the beach of the islands, a little glad to be home. Still, he wished that he could leave and help the King save the universe. Again.

He stopped and gazed out to the horizon, watching the sun rise up above the water. Everything seemed so peaceful. Something brushed against his foot and he looked down. It was a bottle with a letter in it.

Riku picked it up and stared down at it. It had the King's seal. He pooped it open and unrolled the paper.

Riku,

I ohpe this reaches ya, pal. We got big trouble. The rest of the Organization has been attacking many worlds, gathering up tonnes of Nobodies and heartless. They aren't doing it for fun either. They're gathering an army. We need you and Thay to hurry up and get here as soon as possible.

King Mickey

Riku dropped the paper. An army? They could barely keep the heartless and the Nobodies under control now but an army would devestate them It would be all over.

A minute later, Riku was outside Sora's door.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Riku banged on the door. "Thay!" The door creacked open and Thay peeked out of it. "Thay, we're leaving," he said quickly.

Thay opened it all the way. "Leaving? You mean-"

"Yes! We're going to Hollow Bastion to help," Riku finished for him. "Meet me on the shore in half an hour. You won't need anything but your keyblade," he said and took off down to the beach.

Thay couldn't speak. He had been so excited to leave and explore other worlds but now it gave him a sick feeling. He sighed and closed the door.

"Thay? Are you okay?" Kairi's voice came.


Thay walked into the room where his mom and dad were sitting in. He gave a slight nod and sat down, unable to speak. Sora sighed. "You're leaving. Don't worry. You'll have a good time. Well, maybe you won't but you'll come home safe," he said and walked over to Thay. He took off the crown necklace he always wore and put it aorund Thay's own nock. "Here. You keep it. Be safe, okay?"

Thay looked up and gave a weak smile, his eyes watering. Kairi came over and hugged him. "You'll come home. I know you will."

Thay nodded and Kairi stood up. "You better get going," Sora added and Thay stood up, confidently and walked oout the door giving one last glance at his childhood home.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Riku paced the beach, thinking. If they went to Hollow Bastion and fought, they would probably die. If they stayed, then the worlds would be overrun and they would still die. Still, better to die fighting.

Thay came up from behind him. "I'm ready," he said confidently.

Riku smiled and opened up a Corridor of Darkness. "Let's hope so."

Sorry about that! Anyway, here's another chapter.

Chapter IV: Fear​

Riku watched as Thay attempted the exercises Riku assigned to him. It was more a test to see how well Thay could fight and what his weaknesses were. It was boring work since Riku didn't actually test him hard.

Thay managed to do well on all the tests except when Riku asked him to go into the cave which he and Sora played in as children. Thay was a little scared to go in but was fine once Riku showed him the inside.

Three hours later, Riku was sitting on a branch o f the paupu tree, thinking about what to do. Thay came up from behind him and leaned against the tree. "
They didn't say anything for aorund five minutes. "You are afraid," Riku said finally.

Thay looked up. "Afriad? Of what? I'm not scared of anything!" he said confidently. He took a step back and smiled, proudly. "I can take anything you've got to throw at me," he taunted.

Riku laughed. "Oh, really? Do you think it's a good idea to tell me that?" he asked with a sly smile. Thay held his stance hard. "Alright," Riku jumped down from the branch. "Let's see how brave you are." Black flames sprouted out of the ground.

Thay took a step back and the kingdom key appeared in his hand. His whole vision went pitch black and he couldn't see a thing. "W-what's going on?" he shouted to no one, clearly scared.

He couldn't see Riku but he heard him. "Everyone has a fear of something. Your fear is the unknown," the darkness started to disppear at his words and the flames vanished.

Thay was almost shaking. "How did you do that?"

Riku sighed and sat down on the branch again. "It isn't hard but what we need to focus on is you right now. With you scared of the very thing you will fight, it doens't help matters."

Thay straightened. "What can I do?"

Riku chuckled at his words. "Do you really want to know? Alright then. Let's begin."

Chapter III: Story Time​

Thay looked up at him. "Riku," he said as though trying it out. "This...this is a keyblade?"

Riku nodded and started to walk along the beach, Thay following him. "Yeah. A while back, your dad was a hero who saved many worlds."

Thay was in shock. "Really? My dad? Who are you anyway?" he asked, backing up. "And what's up with worlds, as in plural? Are there more than one? And how come your the keyblader of darkness? And why hasn't my dad told me any of this?" he asked, quickly.

Riku sighed. "About that...Well your dad didn't tell you because he didn't want you to make the same mistake I did. Yes there are more than worlds than this one, you'll see them soon enough. And I'm the keyblader of darkness because I gave into the darkness."

Thay was a little speachless. "Right... I still don't get it. What mistake did you make?"

Riku didn't say anything. He sighed again. "Let's put it this way kid. If some guy ever offers you infinate power, say no, alright?"

Thay nodded weakly. "So...uh...do I get to see the worlds?"

Riku nodded. "Soon enough. I have to train you first," he said and black lights swirled around and met at Riku's hand. A blade that was black, red and purple appeared in his hand. It looked like it had a wing at the end of it.

Thay looked at it with wide eyes. "Whoa! How come yours is so good?"

Riku chuckled. "I've given up alot to get this blade. More than you can imagine." And that ended the conversation.

Thay looked up at him. "So, when you said training, what did you mean?" he asked, a little nervous.

Riku shrugged, smiling. "A little of this a little of that," he said and grinned down at him. Thay gulped a little scared.

Thank you for the help! I love people who do that, instead of saying, good job they actually tell you what you can do better. Many thanks! :D

Anyway, this chapter is going to be a little...different then my last ones. And the thing about the garbage...well...I was told that the story was a little thick and I admit it was completely off topic. I looked over it and realized that it wasn't very good and I could do better so I stopped it there. As for the detail, well I wanted to keep chapter one down to around a thousand words.

Chapter II: The New Keyblade Hero​

Thay jumped off his boat, looking around. His father had told him to come for some wierd reason. He didn't explain why he just told him to go.

Thay walked down to the beach and felt the wind blow in his face gently. It was peaceful...the sun setting...the waves barely grazing the shore.

"So, your the son of my best friends?" a voice came from behind him and Thay whipped around. A man stood there, around the age of nineteen. He had sivoer-blue hair with black streaks in it and piercing violet eyes. He wore a black shirt with a yellow and white vest over top that was torn at the shoudlers. He also wore blue pants that looked worn from many battles.

"W-who are you?" Thay stammered taking a step back.

The man shook his head. "Fear. To be expected. Anyway, your mom and dad have sent me to well...ask for your help."

Thay almost laughed. "Me? For help?"

"Well, actaully, I need your help. Anyway, you would have found out even if I told you. After all, your dad was one of the greatest."

Thay was very lost. "My dad? The greatest at what?"

The man gave a chuckle. "To think, his own son doesn't even know," he said and a bright flash of light blinded Thay for a second. He looked up and the man was holding what looked like a key. It was huge though! The blade, if that's what it was, was a sivler colour and the hilt was yellow. The end of it looked like it had a crown on it but Thay wasn't sure.

"Here, catch," the man said and threw it to him. Thay cuaght it and gripped onto the handle. The sword felt like it was made for him and a strange power seemed to emmit from it.

A word rang in Thay's head. "Keyblade," he muttered to himself.

The man walked over. "I'm glad we've got that straightened out. By the way, the name's Riku, keyblader of darkness and your dad's best friend."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sorry for the short chapter but I have relatives over so I have to go.

((Bum bum bum! Will Riku give into the darkness? Where are Sora and Kairi? Did the egg come before the chicken? Let's find out...but maybe not about the egg and the chicken.))

Chapter 4: Truth​

Riku looked down at his hands, checking to see if they were his own and not Ansem's. He ran to the mirror and sighed in relief. He was still himself.

A little paraniod, aren't we? A cold voice rang thorugh his mind. Riku whipped around, loking for who said it but no one was there. Searching for me? You don't need to look far, the voice commented.

Riku's eyes widenned in fear. Ansem! What do you want with me?

Ansem laughed, sending chills up Riku's spine. I would have thought that would be obvious. Maybe you are not as intellegent as I give you credit for.

Riku shook his head. I won't give into you again. Never again. I don't care if I die.

But do you care if your little friends die? Riku's heart skipped a beat. Ah, yes. The cruel functions of the heart. You despise me but your feelings towards your friends, as you call them, will over come that. It is inevitable, Riku.

Riku couldn't help but ponder Ansem's words as he left his room to where the others were eating breakfast. Yuna gave him a warm smile and he tried to smile back but nothing happenned. The others all nodded in his directions before continueing to eat.

There was a long pause as Riiku sat down as though everyone wanted to ask him the same thing but no one wanted to say it outloud. Tidus put down his fork. "We...kinda heard your's and Yuna's conversation last night," he said quietly. Everyone stopped eating and looked at Riku.

Riku nodded. "Really?" he said, not giving anything away.

Wakka nodded. "Yeah. About how Yuna should make her decision based on what her heart tells her and about what-" Lulu stepped on his foot and Wakka stopped talking.

Riku nodded but didn't say anything. A battle was raging inside him. Should he tell them about Ansem or should he just say nothing? He sighed, unable to contain it. You're actually going to tell them? Ansem's voice said with no emotion.

Ansem, shut it! Riku snapped back.

Not very nice today, are we? Riku didn't reply but looked at each of his newfound friends.

"Um...yeah, about that. Listen, there are some things...about what's happenned to me that I'm not proud of but I didn't have any choice. See, when I was trying to save Kairi, I tried to use the darkness inside me. When I did, someone manipulated my thoughts and eventually took over my body, entirely. Now his shadow lingers inside me," he said, now looking at the ground.

Yuna nodded. That explains what he said last night and why he's so...secluded from everyone. The others looked at each other, questionably. They had never heard of this happenned. Yuna looked up at Riku. "Well, Riku-" she stopped. A huge bang had sounded from outside, shaking the building.

They all ran outside and looked up. A huge black creature was ttearing apart the place. It had great black wings and fangs probably the size of someone's arm. Riku was in shock. Where had it come from and who was hunting him that would go this far as to destroy part of a world?
