ღ Third Keychain ღ Don't Wake Me Up ღ
[It's strange. This world... It's beautiful. Almost like the last dream, he's at the Islands. But something is different. Very different. The entire Island is eroded, and the sea is endless purple--liquid darkness. But probably the strangest thing is the boy himself, standing there on the cracked and split sand. His expression is blank, unfeeling. At least on the surface. But his eyes... They're a beautiful, bright gold. And the crown on his cape is replaced instead by a black-and-red emblem designed to look like a crossed out heart.
That's right. He's been devoured by his own darkness, and those who can sense it... The light left in his heart could flicker out any second. His paradise... Everything is so simple. Nothing interferes with what Dad wants. And better yet: he's not alone.
To his right, standing about a yard behind him, quiet with face turned to the ground and hands clasped before her. The ever-patient friend from his childhood, the girl who always looked after him and kept him calm and in high spirits. She who is his light, keeping him whole and sane and human. Kairi. His princess, by his side forever.
To his left, standing only a few steps behind him, is a strong and silent boy. Silver hair, a sense of strength that rivals the Heartless Prince, and a handsome heart that supports his friends. The one who almost did forgoet, but came along with him into the darkness and has been his pillar, helping to keep him together when he needs it. Riku. His best friend and knight, supporting him so long as he should need him.
Quietly, and with the faintest of smiles, Sora looks over his shoulder, first to Kairi, then Riku.]
...See? We can stay here, in the darkness. And... It'll be just like old times. Our kingdom... Just the three of us, and dad, if he choses to show up.
[There's a laugh, and then he turns to the two, arms spread wide as they both just smile.]
We'll be able to live here forever! Isn't that great?
[[OOC: Kairi and Riku won't likely speak unless spoken to. Sora himself is also likely to lose his heart if he remains here too long. I'll start giving a countdown if our thread lasts long enough.]]
