Sora, Riku

Do you remember the day I washed up on our island? I wasn't sure where I was or where I came from and you both still accepted me for who I am. To me you were the only friends I can remember having... even if Riku was a bit cold at first. Thanks to you, I was given a home and a life. I have so much to be thankful for, but now isn't the time for that. After all there's so much going on right now. I wonder when you're reading this. Not that it matters because either way my words will get through. They always do.

When we began building the raft, I didn't think we would get all that far. The ocean was so vast and even though we could come from the main island, it seemed impossible to travel to another world. I guess it was you enthusiasm that changed my mind Sora. No matter what seemed to happen you really believed that we could do it. I'd even say that Riku was influenced by that too hehe.

I never could have imagined that it would lead to where we are now. Riku you got taken in by the Darkness and everything went cold for me... it was terrifying. I couldn't feel anything and it was like I was wandering around in the darkness. But it was you two who kept me going. Later I'd find out that my heart moved from my body to Sora's which is when everything felt warm again. Something wasn't right and it was still dark, but I felt safe.

I won't forgive Maleficent for what he did (at least I think it's he?). He tore us apart, leaving you on your own Sora and Riku you joined him because you wanted to protect me... and Sora. But I still feel guilty. Ansem took over you Riku and it was terrifying. You were you but... not. I don't want to see that again...

Then you and your friends were going to chase Ansem into the Door of Darkness Sora. You'll never know how much I wanted to come because being separated again was my greatest fear by that time. I wanted to be there when you found Riku again, I wanted us to stay together. You were and always will be my best friends and there's nothing that can change that. You knew that didn't you Sora? You sent me home because you didn't want me getting hurt... please. Just know that I understand why but my heart screamed something else. When I went back to Destiny Island I felt as though you were further away then ever. Especially when the worlds began returning. Something deep inside me knew that it would be years before I saw you again.

Not only that, but I forgot. I knew about Riku but... Sora I forgot everything about you. Even now I feel guilty about it because your presence was everywhere but I couldn't remember your name or your face. It was thanks to a boy named Roxas that I remembered. I don't know why, but he really reminds me of you. You know I hope I can ask him one day. I owe him so much because if he hadn't helped me remember then nothing would've happened. I'd still be on the Island waiting for Riku and someone to come home.

That was when I decided not to wait anymore. I'm not a damsel in distress! But that was when Axel decided to show up and he tried to take me to... wherever he was going to try and take me. I didn't exactly have time to ask! Actually it was Pluto who saved me and lead me to Twilight Town. I stayed there for a while, but I wasn't lonely if that's what you're thinking! Hayner, Pence and Olette kept me company while I stayed there... until Axel tried again. This time he actually managed to kidnap me 'cause he threatened my new friends. He was beaten by some of the guys from Organization XIII and so I was put in a prison with Pluto for ages. The person looking after me was a real idiot... but I guess I'm soft on those kind of people huh?

Namine was the one who saved me you know, just when I was beginning to think that maybe I wasn't good enough. It wasn't just her rescuing me from the cell that saved me, she gave me confidence in myself. The weirdest thing was that I felt this connection between the two of us and I'm still not sure what that meant.

You remember the next part don't you Riku? After all you saved Namine and me in that Dark Corridor. No matter how you change your faced I'll always be able to tell that it's you! The same goes for you too Sora. I've been with the two of you for so long... there's no way I'll ever mistake you for someone else. When I saw you there Riku, I knew it was you. Then you gave me the Keyblade - my Keyblade - and we went to help Sora stop Oranization XIII.

This was supposed to get my feelings out. Just to let the both of your know what I'm thinking. We've been through so much and... sometimes it feels like I'm just a third wheel. Maybe one day everything will go back to how it was on our island...

In the meantime just share a Paopu Fruit and get it over with!
