Disclaimer---Gah, these things are SO boring. -sigh- I don't own any of this, if u wanna sue, I have a nice collection of TY beanie babies....that's about all u'll have. But if u take them, I'll cry, I swear it! ;.;
CHAPTER 3: lay on the cool sandy earth beneath him and looked toward the sky wistfully. He's stopped running quite a while ago when he realized he'd almost circled the island, no sense in going back to them when he'd run from them in the first place. He sighed dejectedly, burrowing further into the sand. Really, it made quite a nice bed, forming a glove to ur body once you wriggled down enough into it. (I've actually done that, it's REALLY comfortable!!!) "I don't get what's going on, why won't Traid tell me anything," Sora's cheeks colored at remembering that warm embrace and his rapid acceptance of it. "And why exactly do I trust him?"who?"spun quickly, sitting up int he process, "Kairi!" He sounded relieved, if not somewhat guarded. He had his reasons why he did not really want Riku here. 'Right, moonlight, beach, stars, I'd loose myself like a freakin' girl, THEN he'd hate me.' Rather than voice his thoughts, Sora turned to Kairi somewhat worried, "What're you doing here? D-does anyone know you're here?"sat roughly down on the ground beside Sora. It wasn't until then that Sora noticed she was panting, he was sure that her face was flushed, but in this darkness, he couldn't tell. A few moments passed in silence as Kairi regained her breath, "We've been looking for you. You ran off so fast we were worried. Why'd you go out if you were sick?" She looked at him reprovingly, like his own mother.what're you talking about Kairi, I feel fine." He put a hand to his head and indeed, it felt warm. He turned to her with his blue eyes glistening with question, "What hit me? Riku, he swung that hammer at me."you, what do you mean? Riku'd never do that, he likes you too much Sora, you're his BEST friend!" She barely finished speaking before Sora jumped in.didn't pass out! Something hit me, I felt it! Traid said one of you did it and Riku was the one with the hammer." He couldn't believe he'd actually said that, accused Riku, Riku WAS his best friend. Sora thought more of Riku than to accuse him of this but, he'd seen it with his own eyes.Who's that? Sora, what's going on, you've been acting so wierd and not telling me anything! Riku told me you've been having weird dreams but-"not dreams!" Sora recoiled just as much as Kairi did. He didn't mean to snap like that, he just seemed so angry all of a sudden, but he couldn't help it, there was something weird going on here. He was beginning to worry about Traid and his world, what if he couldn't save it? How was he supposed to go about that anyway? But, apparently, he'd been doing something, the world was certainly getting better, but how, he didn't know.You're doing it again. What are you thinking about?" Kairi rested her hands on his shoulders gently. She was beyond completely worried for the boy.just . . . thinking about something-"what, please tell me Sora, I'm supposed to be your friend." Kairi ceased talking when she felt Sora tense beneath her hands. "S-Sora?"couldn't breathe, something was chocking him, cold hands on his neck. He clawed at them but they did not even flinch, black specs danced before his eyes, his body began to go slack. Suddenly, the icy hands removed themselves and Kairi's voice cut through his mind, "Sora! What's wrong?!" She was frantic it seemed. As soon as he felt his strength return to him, Sora jumped from her grasp, wide-eyed and searching around for the culprit. His eyes fell on Kairi and his jaw went slack, her eyes glistened red and she waved seductively. He blinked again and she was biting her nails nervously, she reached a hand out to him but he took a few steps backward, horror etched across his face.You chocked me, Kairi what's wrong with you?!"
/Come to me Sora/ I'd never!" Kairi took a step toward him again but got no further. Sora leapt into the water and swam off as fast as his limbs would push him. Kairi stood there shellshocked, how could Sora even think something like that? Kairi turned on her heels and ran back in the direction she had come calling for Riku. They had to figure out what was wrong with Sora. It was much more than a sickness
/But you didn't did you?/ n-no, I didn't. I suppose I have you to thank for that?"
/Thank anyone you wish Sora./ how is it that I can only see you in my dreams? Why aren't you here?" Sora's curiosity seemed to have gotten the best of him and he found himself unable to quell it once it was let loose, "If your world, YOU, are in my dreams, how can they possibly be real?"
/You are very real in your dream are you not? And besides, my world is not a dream, but a real place. Another dimension as you would call it, or perhaps another world altogether./ want to see the world, and how it's doing since I'm . . . helping it."
/How demanding you are my Sora./ The way he'd said that sent shivers down Sora's spine. His voice went on with a decidedly happier, /Lay your head to rest and you shall see your progress./ did as he was told and it didn't take long for him to slip off into dream land despite the icy chill on the air.
A/N: Wow, yet another chapter. And all done before 12 midnight. . Um, I'm sorry this one was probably a little bit boring in the beginning, but at least it's taking the direction I want it to!
BTW, anyone notice a pattern here? If not, I'm not givin' it away lol o.- Gah, I'm biting my nails for no reason at all so I guess I'd better go. TTFN!

They had to figure out what was wrong with Sora. It was much more than a sickness
----------Traid!" Sora stumbled through the surf looking up to the sky, tears pouring down his face. "I know you can hear me and I know you can talk back." This outburst only seemed to upset Sora more, 'I must seem like a fool, talking to myself.'
/You're not talking to yourself dear Sora. I can hear every word. You must see my world, it grows more beautiful all the time./ what am I doing? How am I helping? And what's going on here, why is this happening all of a sudden. Neither Kairi nor Riku had ever THOUGHT of hurting me until you started coming." Sora had expected him to stutter, most enemies did when their secret plots were discovered.the voice chuckled, /Sora Sora Sora. They resent you for your light. You've come of age where your true power is manifesting itself. You're 'friends' have steeped themselves in darkness and they seek to make all darkness. Your light is powerful and they wish to extinguish that most of all./ need help. I want to help your world." He needed to help Traig's world, he needed to be with Traid. Sora could still feel that warm embrace. Smell that odd scent that clung to Traid, feel the incredible soft silkiness of his clothing . . .bout of chuckling from Traid's voice pulled Sora from his thoughts, /You are not yet ready to give yourself to this world. But until then, keep your heart in the light and be confident that I will protect you./ barked a short laugh, "A fine job of that you've been doing! I could've died!"/But you didn't did you?/ n-no, I didn't. I suppose I have you to thank for that?"
/Thank anyone you wish Sora./ how is it that I can only see you in my dreams? Why aren't you here?" Sora's curiosity seemed to have gotten the best of him and he found himself unable to quell it once it was let loose, "If your world, YOU, are in my dreams, how can they possibly be real?"

-----------------was laying on crisp yellow sand, basking in the gloriously warm glow of the sun. The azure sky streched infinately over his head, lazy cotton-puff clouds glided across the endless sky in no particular direction. Sora was completely at peace. 'I wish Riku could see this.'
"You must put him from your mind little Sora."he opened one of his eyes and looked up at the tall boy standing over him. Traid no longer wore his cloak, but his white hair fell around him as if it were one, "I'm not little."chuckled, "You are indeed a powerful young man." Looking behind him suddenly, Traid sighed sadly, "If only the rest of this world were as beautiful."will be, I won't rest until it is." Sora sat up and looked at the ocean, a strange site indeed. Swirls of white and grey blended with spots of clear aqua, "I just hope I won't be too late."won't be." Sora blushed pink when Traid pulled the auburn haired boy against him, but, Sora couldn't find it in himself to fight it. Just as Sora began to relax, Traid rested his head on Sora's shoulder and spoke softly in his ear, "I believe in you."crained his neck around to look into those glistening emerald eyes, they enchanted him. No jewel could outshine them and not hardship could turn them cold. They were warm and inviting and Sora felt as if he'd been let in on a large secret trusted to him only. Rather suddenly, at least in Sora's mind, soft lips brushed his for but a second. It could have been eternity encased in the tick of a second or a drop of a sand grain, but then it ended too soon. "Trai-"You must return. Face the darkness Sora, it will only make you stronger. Do not give in to their deceptions, I will be with you."world around Sora shimmered and faded, but that feeling still remained.A/N: Wow, yet another chapter. And all done before 12 midnight. . Um, I'm sorry this one was probably a little bit boring in the beginning, but at least it's taking the direction I want it to!
BTW, anyone notice a pattern here? If not, I'm not givin' it away lol o.- Gah, I'm biting my nails for no reason at all so I guess I'd better go. TTFN!
