A friend and I have been doing a RP for a while now, and it has been scattered across several threads on two different sites. It started as a group story (about fast food of all things ) but then it transformed into something else entirely.

 

We request that nobody join in this RP or post anything on this thread; if you wanna say how awesome we are, message us some other way.

 

Um...You're free to read this for fun if you want to, but this thread has major Birth By Sleep spoilers. And since we've been doing this for a while, we will probably refer to things we've done in the past and you will have no idea what we're talking about. So if you want to save yourself from confusion, then you probably wanna stay away. If not, hey, whatever.

 

The plot was discussed and posted on another website, but here's a quick summary of the whole thing: It's the return of Xehanort.

 

Characters:

Peanut: Sora, Namine, Leon, Aerith, King Mickey, Terra, Ventus, Xehanort, etc.

Forever Love: Riku, Kairi, Roxas, Yuffie, Aqua, Vanitus, Tron, etc.

 

I believe I've said everything that needs to be said...Forever Love, let's get this show on the road, eh?

Riku didn't know what to say after that, so he just kept his gaze down on Lightning as he continued to hold her. Soon, everything would be set right. He would have to say goodbye, in this time, but he would see her again.

Light lifted her head after a few moments and lightly leaned it against Riku behind her, her gaze on the mountains. She really needed to calm down here. It probably didn't help that she was still exhausted from the fight in the jungle and the trip home. Tiredness always did make a person more emotional.

"You should get some rest," Riku said, his eyes on Light as he looked down at her. "You look exhausted." And she acted it too. Not in a bad way, necessarily, but he could tell she was stressed. Maybe if she got some sleep, she could think clearly about everything when she woke up.

Lightning nodded faintly, eyes open halfway as she gazed at the mountains. "Right," she agreed softly. She did need to get some rest, no doubt about it. But she realized that when she woke up, things would be the same. This wasn't just a nightmare.

Riku loosened his hold on Lightning slightly, though her hands were on top of his arms. He didn't want to let her go, since he just admitted how much he missed her and all, but she was more important. Light needed rest.

Light slowly took her arms away from Riku's, knowing that she would probably have to go inside to rest. It was probably dangerous to stay out in the open like this for too long, just in case Warp's lackeys were going around world-to-world looking for them.

Riku released Lightning completely and took a small step back, his eyes now on the back of her head. She knew where his bed was, so he wouldn't escort her. Until she woke back up, he'd work on the ship for her...and try not to mess it up.

Light turned and glanced at Riku, catching onto the look in his eyes easily. She nodded slightly to him and started walking past him, switching her gaze to the castle.

Riku turned a little, his eyes trailing Light's movements. He hoped that at least a little sleep would help her out; he could tell how stressed she was. And he knew that it wouldn't help Light fight off everything. It would only drag her down.

Light paused a few feet away, her impulsiveness getting the best of her. "Hey, Riku?" she asked softly, turning around to look at him. "...Do you mind if I just lay out here?" It didn't look like an uncomfortable area to take a nap in, not with the sun shining down like this.

Riku shrugged a little. "Sure, go ahead," he said. He wasn't sure where she would rest, but if that was what Light wanted to do, he wouldn't stop her.

Light nodded faintly, humming as well. That was what she would do, then. She glanced over and saw Jasmine laying in a grassy area basking in the sunlight, and she figured she'd go join her. She walked over and took off her sword bag, leaning it against a small wall before she laid down in the grass. It would have been uncomfortable to lay on that.

Riku turned his head and looked to the ship, which he approached and immediately began working on. He picked up where Lightning left off, not unfamiliar with mechanics; he'd had to fix a lot of things himself when he was stuck here. It was nothing new.

Jasmine crawled over and laid where Light was about to put her head, and the girl couldn't help but smile faintly at that. What a cute dog. She turned her head to the side of the dog's warm stomach, her and Jasmine both watching Riku for a few moments before Light shut her eyes and exhaled a soft breath, falling asleep a minute later.

Riku looked over after about five minutes of working on the ship, and that was when he noticed Light was sound asleep. He smiled faintly at the sight, seeing how at peace she appeared. But then he immediately went back to work.

A few hours passed by, Lightning sound asleep in the same place where she passed out. Jasmine hadn't moved, the dog much calmer than she had been five years ago. But eventually, the dog tensed, growling lowly to get Riku's attention when she sensed two people enter this world.

Riku heard the growl in the silence of the day, and he leaned out of the ship to locate Jasmine. "What's up, Jazz?" he asked. He saw her looking at the sky and showing her teeth, another growl leaving her. He looked up and that was when he spotted two vessels in the sky. But...who was it?

Rena squinted as she looked down at the world, her and Darren flying over it in search of the Black Knight and the girl. "You see anything?" she asked her partner, looking over at him. At their higher altitude, she couldn't hear the dog, or see the girl who was undisturbed by the dog's growling.

Darren shook his head, responding. "Nothing but the ruins of some castle," he said. They were just now getting over the mountain, flying closer to the castle he just mentioned. But they were too high for him to notice that their targets were located on this world.

"This is a waste," Rena mumbled. "Searching all the worlds out there won't guarantee we'll find them. We should have at least looked for leads before doing this dumb search..." They had no idea where the Knight and girl were, but she doubted they were here.

Darren looked over at Rena's ship flying beside his own, hearing her words. "This is one of the only worlds we haven't checked," he told her. "It's worth a shot." He turned his head to look back down, simultaneously lowering his ship so he could get a clearer view. After all, he knew the possibility of them having to search on foot.

Rena stayed silent, lowering her ship as well. They were closer to the castle now, and for a split second, she thought she saw some stuff on the area in front of it. What was it, and what was it doing on a deserted world like this?

 

Lightning didn't move or wake up, despite how tense Jasmine was now. The dog still wasn't moving, teeth barred as she looked in the direction of the ships. She knew danger when she saw it.

Darren narrowed his eyes as he forced himself to focus more on the things he saw below. Since they were flying closer, he could make out something...or someone. "Wait a second..." he muttered under his breath. His ship got even lower as his curiosity grew, and he was only a hundred feet above the castle when he recognized the pink-haired girl, and that ship; the other one crashed, but it was the same type. "It's them!"

 

Riku took a small step back, fighting the urge to summon his blade. What if these vessels weren't a threat? No, they had to be; Jasmine was on edge, and he could smell Darkness seeping from the ships. "Lightning," he said, needing her to wake up. However, he highly doubted that she would with just that call.

Light didn't hear Riku's call, though she was normally a lighter sleeper. But she was so tired that she was pretty out of it, and she didn't even sense the threat. She wouldn't until it was too late.

 

"Heh, would you look at that..." Rena said, a smirk starting to form on her lips as she focused on the girl who was easy to pick out against the green grass. Taking a nap! Pathetic.

Darren's eyes moved to the other person present below, the boy turning his ship so he could circle the area without flying too far past it. "And who is this?" he asked in wonder. The last person Lightning had been with was the... "Rena. Could that be...the Black Knight?"

 

Riku turned a little when he saw one of the ships circle the area. "Lightning," he said again, caution in his voice as he glanced at her. She was still sleeping, but Jasmine was too aware of the obvious threat here. It was those two kids, wasn't it? They found us.
