Kingdom Hearts: Struggle for Earth

The side hatch opened for the trio to enter. Wesely shut off the gun and started the main thrusters of the ship. He was ready to take off as soon as they got onto the ship.

 

Valerie was taking the chance to catch her breath, life flashing before her eyes. Riku and Sora were also catching their breath, using eachother for support. "Whew....stupid Heartless..."Sora huffed. "Well....we tried..."Riku said. "Y-Yeah..."Valerie plopped down onto the floor.

 

The ship took off and Wesely set the ship to auto piolit. He got out of the chair and walked intensly tords Riku. Wesely drew his arm back and punched Riku across the face, "What the hell were you thinking."

 

Riku rubbed the area of the hit. "Its what was right...I wasn't going to leave her, and neither was Sora...but... I guess it was too late."he frowned. Valerie went to get the first aid kit while Sora was right next to Riku, alittle upset. "So now where are we going?"He asked, looking at Wesley.

 

The new Keyblade flickered from Riku's hand, not needed. It would come again, but the changes stayed the same. The heart was learning magic from Riku's, growing it's own mind. It tried a small Cure, wishing the host safe and sound.

 

Riku was alittle relieved at the cure spell, Sora still sitting right next to him. "I'm okay now, Sora..."He said. "Okay..."Sora nodded.

 

"Yes my host, no harm is to come to thee. I will protect you." The pattern upon Riku's outfit changed to night, as it was outside. What a protective heart.

 

"So cool...."Sora was in awe. "Yeah...what was in that box anyway...?"Riku asked. "Who knows..."Valerie shrugged.

 

"I was in there. Don't you know? Not very bright, are you Shadow?" The heart replied, slightly toying with him. It was waiting to see him return to the dreams where his Station of Calling resided. It was going to change it to accommodate it better.

 

Riku could hear the voice talking to him, alittle curious. Who are you...? Sora was looking at Rikus outfit, alittle in wander that a heart could do this.

 

"Silly Shadow. Did you forget? Visit your Station of Calling and I shall show myself." The heart gave a small chuckle, mocking him. It really was testing him, waiting and biding it's time. Now if the darkness intruded, that would be a problem.

 

Okay.... "I'm gonna rest for a bit..."Riku said. "Alright."Sora smiled. Riku went to the rest area to meet this 'voice'.

 

The heart giggled, by slowly went silent. Waiting, allowing time to slowly tick by.

 

Wesely got back to the seat and turned off the auto piolit then went back to flying. Wesely sighed, "your right this is easy to fly. But then again I do have a little experiance with planes."

 

"Its not that hard really. Sure at first its alittle difficult with controls, but you get used to it."Sora smiled.

Riku soon drifted off to sleep, awaiting to meet this 'voice' in his dream.

 

The platform of Riku's Station of Calling was not a circle, but it looked as if broken glass had been glued together in a floor into a collage of memories. Some places had holes by a small crystalline heart. A pillar stood by it, sitting a familiar face.

 

Riku looked at the platform in a bit of awe, his gaze going over to the pillar.

 

Eden, or a more whispy form, swung her legs on the pillar. She wore a small grin, becoming more hole as a chunk of glass memory was in her hand. "Huh, you're just like me. Fragile with memories. Hope you don't forget." The memory glass she threw, adding to the floor. The memory was her own.

 

"Eden....?"Riku was alittle confused that Eden was in his dream. He looked at the different memories in awe.

 

"Yes Riku. I was in the box, or more my heart." Eden hopped down from the pillar, coming close. She observed him critically. "So, Shadow. Your heart is... Odd." She walkedto the memory of Terra, remembering something. "I think I should know, do you ever regret Terra, Aqua, and Ventus coming to Destiny Islands?"
