Within The Shadows.

 

Riku yawned as he stretched. He lazily hung his leg over the tree branch of the paupu tree. It was a beautiful sunny day on Destiny Island. And he was bored. Everything here was the same. Same old beach same old island. Same old world. He longed to escape this prison called a world. It was old and it had been explored to its most of his ability's. “Man I wish something new would happen. Or at least a new face, YAWN.” Riku stated as he jumped down, dusting up sands with his rather large shoes. He walked over the wooden bridge. He jumped down near the ocean. He turned his attention to the sea. It glistened in the afternoon sun. It was a sea green with a sky blue mixture. He sighed and walked down the sanded beach. Wakka was tossing a blitz ball into the air and catching it. Tidus was off in the tree house practicing with his stick. He was determined, like Sora to beat Riku. He chuckled at this thought. Selphie was on the docks, her legs leaning over the side kicking the water that lapped her feet. (AN: Names spelled right? Haven't played in a while.)

 

 

Riku held his head with one hand. “Nothing to do. Done it all.” He stated as he walked further the beach. His over sized shoe stepped on something. “What this?” Riku mumbled to him self. “A sketch book? Hmm?” He mumbled to him self as he flipped through it. It was all pictures of the island and of the people on it. One was of a girl with a dark jacket and two low pigtails. And she was looking at a large wooden door with a trim. It also had a rather detailed picture of him that wasn't finished. “Wonder who's it is.” He wondered aloud. “Riku!” Sora yelled as he came racing over to the older boy. “What is it Sora? And is this your sketch book?” Riku asked the out of breath brunet. “No and come on there a storm coming we have to get to the tree house. Come on!” Sora said as he pulled the older boy up to the tree house were Kairi was watching the sea.

 

 

 

The storm ragged against the little island with extreme force. The waves crashed against the little dock. Nearly destroying it. The three friends sat huddled in the tree house. Safe from the storm. The silver hared teen watched the storm rage on outside their hiding place. The sketchbook lay next to him. “It's really coming down out there.” Sora stated as he hugged his knees to keep warm. “Yeah good thing were in here.” Kairi commented. Riku stayed quite his attention set on the raging storm before them. His aqua eyes widened as he scrambled to his feet. “Riku whats wrong?” Kairi inquired. “I think someone's out there.” Riku stated as he walked out into the storm. “Where?!” Sora shouted, covering his eyes from the blistering rain. Riku just continued walking toward the beach. A body lay across the sand. It was a girl. She was in a black zip up sweatshirt that had little white wings on the back. Her pants were a deep blue. Her hair was in two low pigtails that were near the back of her neck. Her hair was an interesting shade of faded blue. It was a bluish grey. She had an albino complexion. She lay there not moving as Riku walked over to her. He shook her slightly. “Hey are you awake?” He asked. She didn't respond. He sighed as he picked her up and slung her over his shoulder and carried her to the tree house were his two friends were waiting.

 

 

“Do you think she's dead?” Sora asked. “I doubt it see? She's still breathing.” Riku stated. “When do you think she'll wake up?” Kairi asked. “Not sure, maybe a few minutes maybe a few days.” Riku commented. The girls was laying next to him Sora was across from him, and Kairi next to the girl. “She has pretty hair.” Kairi said admiring the girls grey blue hair. “I wonder what color her eyes are?” Sora wondered aloud. “We'll find out when she wakes up.” Riku stated simply. The girl twitched. Her eyes fluttered open and she rose to a sitting position, holding her head in her hand and using the other to support her body. She shook her head and water droplet flew off her. When she looked up through her bangs, her bangs were cut spike like. Droplets of water clung to her hair. She looked around the small room, and shivered. Her eyes were a misty grey. They meet with aqua ones. She tried to back way from the silver hared youth but ended up backing into a wall. She chose to pull up her knee to protect her. She was trembling all over. “Are you cold?” Riku asked in gentle tone drawing closer to the girl. He raised his hand to wipe away from water from her face. She shut her eyes tightly and trembled violently. Riku recoiled his hand. He held his hand within his other one.

 

 

“Whats your name?” He asked in a gentle tone. The girl peered up at him. Her misty grey eyes looking positively frightened. He smiled gentle at her. “My name's Riku. The brown-hared boy is named Sora. And the girl is Kairi, whats yours?” He asked in a softened tone trying hard not to scare the girl more. She peered around the little house they were sitting in, looking for a certain item. The shadows danced on the floor as the storm raged on. She opened her mouth to say something. But no words came out. “Can you talk? Have you lost you voice?” Riku asked. The girl shook her head. “You've lost your voice?” Riku asked trying to confirm the answer. She shook her head yes again.

 

 

“Hmm well that bites.” Sora stated as he leaned against the wall with his arms behind his head. The girl looked down at her knees. She felt ashamed for not being able to talk. Riku place a hand on top of her head. She looked up into his smiling face. “Its ok. It's not your fault. Don't listen to Sora. He can be an idiot at times.” Riku stated. “HEY!” Sora shouted as Kairi laughed. The girl smiled slightly. “There that's good.” Riku said as he smiled. The girl peered around the little house again. “Hey Riku. What if we have her write it down? Like on that sketch book or something.” Sora stated. The girl's eyes lit up as she spotted the sketchbook. She smiled as she crawled over to it and picked it up, she smiled happily as she held it. “Is that your?” Riku asked. The girl smiled happily and shook her head yes again. “Why don't you write to us in it so we can talk.” Kairi asked. She girl look questioning at her for a moment before digging in her coat. She pulled out a blue pen and opened her sketchbook and looked at them, ready for a question. “Well let's start with your name.” Riku said. The girl scribbled in her sketchbook the turned it to show them. The word “Shadow” was written on the page. “So Shadow's your name?” Sora asked inquisitively. Shadow shook her head yes. “Um lets see. Uhh where are you from?” Kairi inquired. Shadow pointed out to the sea. “You live in Destiny town?” Sora asked. (AN: I know crappy name U__U out of creative stuff.) Shadow shook her head. “Hey you live in the same town as us!” Sora exclaimed. Shadow smiled slightly. She shifted her weight so she sat next to Riku. A beaded belt rubbed against the floorboards. It was a bright blue with a little tassel one it. Riku smiled at her. “My turn,” Kairi stated. “Mm how old are you?” Kairi asked. Shadow scribbled again and turned it around. The number 15 was scribbled on it. “So your 15?” Sora asked. Shadow shook her head yes. “Damn older than me again.” Sora stated exasperated by having another person older then him. “So how did you get here?” Riku inquired. Shadow looked at him inquiringly. She then drew furiously in her sketchbook. When she turned it around. It showed two boys playing keep away with her sketchbook. She turned it back around the started drawing. Page after page. When she finished she showed them. The next picture was her punching one of the boys who had her sketchbook. The next picture was her running away from the other boy. The next was her falling through a hole in the ground. Then her falling through the sky and falling into the ocean. The ending up on the beach. “So you fell through a hole while running away from bullies. Then you fell into the ocean. And ended up here?” Sora inquired taking a breath. She shook her head. Sora just sighed and fell over. Exhausted from saying so much in one breath.

 

 

The sky had darkened greatly. The four some looked out into the sky. “It looks like the storm stopped. Come on we better get home.” Sora stated as he stretched. Kairi yawned and waved good-bye to the two and left. Riku peered over at the girl. “We'll stay here ok Shadow?” He said as he wrapped an arm around her. She blushed deeply and looked at her feet. The darkness grew closer as the two sat unsuspecting.

 

 

Sora stretched on his bed. Just a few more hours and they could get off the island and go somewhere. “Maybe we should take Shadow. If she wanted to go.” Sora stated. He peered out the window as thunder clashed within the sky. “Oh no the raft!” Sora stated as he jumped out the window and raced to his boat. “Sora dinner. Sora?” His mother inquired. Her son didn't respond, for he was half way to Destiny Island.

 

Sora jumped on the dock as the darkness grew more violent. “Riku's and Kairi's boats are here.” Sora stated. He peered over to the old wooden bridge. Shadow stood there staring at the sky. Sora blink, what was she looking at? He peered up. A huge black mass of energy was above them. Sora didn't like the look of it. Something clawed at his leg. He looked down. A bunch of little black things that looked like goblins were clawing at him. He drew his wooden sword and beat them away and ran. He ran toward the little island off of the island connected by the wooden bridge. He ran toward Shadow, she just stared up into the sky, entranced by the evilness it put off. He grabbed her by the shoulders and shook her. “Shadow where's Riku? Where's Kairi?” He asked in an exasperated tone. Shadow looked at him with a far of glance. She pointed to the little island where a small ball of darkness was forming. “RIKU!” Sora yelled. “Sora now is the time. We can get off this island go to other worlds. No more parents, no more rules.” He yelled over the storm that raged around them. “Riku where's Kairi and what wrong with Shadow?” Sora yelled trying to get his friends attention. “Kairi will be there with us, and Shadow can sense the darkness. She will come to. Will you come?” Riku asked and held out his hand. Sora looked at him questionably. Then he started toward him. The darkness swirled around them and a blinding light shone and when it cleared. Riku was gone. And Sora held a strange key.

 

 

“Whats the heck?” He wondered aloud. “Kairi, Shadow!” Sora stated as the black goblins started to attack. He swung the weird key and they disappeared. Shadow stood there as the little shadow goblins clawed at her pant leg. They went unnoticed to the girl. Sora raced over to her. “Shadow move!” He yelled. She stayed where she was. A light surrounded her and the little shadows disappeared. Sora look inequality at her. What just happened? He had no idea but he had to find Kairi and he now knew Shadow would be fine with out him. He raced off to the secret cove.

 

 

Sora walked out of the secret cove. How could Kairi had slipped through his hands. First Riku then Kairi. He looked over. Shadow was walking toward him. He looked at her questioningly. She pointed toward the sky and then she was sucked into the air, toward the darkness. “Shadow!” Sora stated as a giant toward over him. He summoned his key blade and got into a fighting position.

 

That's all. For now. Um next Sora goes to Travnerse town. Meeting the gang. He finds Shadow and whats this? She has her voice. She tells him more about her self and her weird powers. That's all please review.
