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?

Aqua stood near Ven, watching as Darren took the chains off Lightning's hands. He then pushed her into her cell, the one with Terra. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught Riku push himself up from the ground, obviously not happy about what Darren was doing. None of them were. Aqua was even ashamed that she managed to get caught in the very beginning, being switched for some clone. It was humiliating.

"Lightning" grunted, falling on her hands and knees when Darren shoved her in. She looked over her shoulder and glared at him, though she was sure that the glare of a fake of Lightning couldn't burn with as much anger as the real Light's would have. But she would come soon enough to glare at him. Unfortunately, though, she couldn't reveal that information to those around her, in case anyone was listening. She had to draw this out as long as possible so the real Light could get here.

Darren slammed the gate to the cell shut, locking it with the set of keys he had. He twirled the chains that had been on Light's wrist in his hand, looking at all of the people he managed to catch within the past two days. "Hmph," he grunted with a smirk, then turning to go, but somebody stopped him.

 

"That's it?" Roxas approached the door to his and Namine's cell, no longer holding her hand. "That's all you've got to say, after you managed to get everything you wanted?" There had to be more than that. He couldn't just look at them with self-satisfaction and then leave.

Sora furrowed his eyebrows, catching Lightning start getting up out of the corner of his eye. "Where's Kairi?!" he asked Darren, hands in tight fists by his side as he glared at the teen. He felt worry in his heart, especially because he didn't sense Kairi's presence here. Something was wrong...he could feel it.

Darren turned back around to look at his captives, his smirk still on his lips. "Don't worry about her," he said to Sora. "We'll take good care of her, I assure you. She's in good hands." Very good hands. She was a pretty girl, and Darren always had liked redheads.

Sora's eyes narrowed into a deadly stare, though worry was what he felt deep within his heart. She most certainly was not in good hands, because she wasn't with him. "What're you gonna do?!" He had to know. If she got hurt, it was his fault, not Lightning's. Kairi...

Darren's smile turned even darker. "I hear she has a special connection with a place very powerful," he hinted lowly. "But before we put her to work, I think I'll have a little fun with her. That okay with you?" Of course, he didn't really care. He was going to do what he pleased; Sora couldn't get out of his cell, and neither could the others. He would have time to do whatever he wanted.

 

Riku took a step toward Darren at that, even if he was in his cell. You're sick, he wanted to say, but his jaw was too tense; flexed in anger and hatred. Nobody talked about Kairi like that.

"Creep!" Sora hollered in outrage, taking a step forward and gripping the cell bars tightly. He was infuriated, hearing Darren's plans. And he couldn't get to Kairi and protect her from this! He felt sick at that knowledge, knowing he failed her.

Darren only laughed, gripping the chains in his hand. "We'll see if Kairi feels the same way," he said, lifting an eyebrow slightly in suggestion. She would be the one to determine that, now wouldn't she?

 

Aqua frowned in disgust. How could someone speak that way about Kairi? She was such a sweet girl. It was sickening to hear someone talk that way about her.

Sora ground his teeth, wishing that looks were enough to kill right now. He didn't want this lowlife getting close to the girl he loved! He wished Darren would come close enough to the cell that he could grab his neck and strangle him, but Darren was obviously smarter than that, considering how he managed to trap all of them and get all the Princesses.

Riku took a step forward, standing to the side and slightly behind Sora. "You touch her, you're dead," he said lowly, his eyes a piercing aqua. If any of the girls were touched that way, the person guilty of the crime would get a piece of him. He wasn't about to let his best friend receive that kind of abuse.

 

"Not before you are," Darren quipped at equal volume. He saw the glare on him, feeling it multiplied because of every set of eyes that were on him. He didn't pay any mind, knowing that he won. The boy then turned, starting toward the exit again.

Namine glared at Darren, shocked, afraid, and angered for her best friend. This was terrible! Nobody could help her, either...they were all locked up. Of course, Namine wouldn't have been able to help in the first place, since she was helpless as usual. She hated feeling so powerless...and she hated how Gual had similar intentions as Darren, only with her. He said as much earlier. That was the only reason she was still alive.

Darren approached the door, but he turned around to look at his captives one more time, specifically the one that loved the redhead. "I'll be gentle," he said with a small smirk, hinting at what his intentions truly were. "Don't worry." He then turned, starting out of the dungeon once more. Once he had his fun with Kairi, they could use her power to summon Kingdom Hearts and get all of the powers they needed.

Sora only grunted, too startled to come up with a response. No...no...no... He felt his face either pale or turn red in anger, he couldn't tell which, even if they were total opposites. He had to get out of here and save her!

Aqua "tsked" in distaste, turning a little as she crossed her arms. That creep... The kids she encountered before Xehanort were always gentlemen, nice and loyal. Kind. Now, they were nothing but dogs, who just wanted some meat. It was disgusting.

"Lightning" could sense the tension that everyone felt, and she knew it was because they believed Kairi was really in trouble. But she wasn't; she was completely safe. Still, they couldn't know that, something she was sure the real Lightning would feel bad about. "Sorry," she said after a few moments, apologizing for letting herself and "Kairi" get into this situation. She wasn't really sorry, because there wasn't real trouble, but she had to play her part well.

Riku turned his head, seeing the woman he loved nearby. "This is obviously fate," he said, referring to what was happening now. "But we're gonna change it. We just gotta figure out how to get out of here." He looked away at that, looking back to the cell. They had to get out of here and get to the Princesses, before something worse happened.

"Lightning" only nodded, looking around the cell to try and figure a way out. But really, she hoped that she had a little while longer. It would only take so long for Darren, Rena, and Gual to realize that they had a clone instead of a real Princess.

Later

 

Darren stormed down the stairs to the dungeon, forcing the door open. It slammed against the stone wall, and he saw a few of the captives jump at the noise. "Whose bright idea was this?" he said, holding a gun in one hand. "Tell me now!" Somebody brought him a clone, a fake, a phony. This wasn't a joke, and he was definitely not in the mood for a lie.

 

Roxas's eyebrows furrowed, but when he saw the gun, he put an arm in front of Namine protectively. He didn't know what Darren was talking about, but he was obviously ticked off. Something set him off, but what?

Namine jumped at the slam and the fury in Darren's voice, glancing down when Roxas's arm was in front of her. She lifted a hand and set it on his shoulder, gripping it tightly while keeping her eyes on Darren. What's this about?

 

"Lightning" opened her eyes at the holler, not surprised like the other Keybladers were. She was wondering when Darren would come in here in anger when he discovered the truth about his Princess. She calmly sat where she was, her eyes expressing calmness as well. This was her bright idea, obviously. Darren even had to ask?

Darren's eyes darted over all of the prisoners in fury, and when he saw how calm one of them was, he came to a conclusion. "It was you," he growled darkly, marching over to her cell. He saw Terra in the same cell, but he only lifted his gun. "On your feet, soldier."

 

Riku took a step over, though he couldn't do anything but that. He wasn't comfortable with that gun pointed at the person he loved, but there was nothing he could do...

"Lightning" obeyed, her movements remaining calm as she rose to her feet. "What's the matter, Darren?" she asked, a slight smirk starting to form on her lips. "Upset your Officer outsmarted you?" Well, the trickery wasn't over just yet. He'd figure that out soon enough.

"Shut up!" Darren ordered, taking the safety off his gun. He kept it pointed at Lightning, but he unlocked her gate. "Out here, now." She would move slowly, or she would die. Simple as that. He wanted some answers.

Sora blinked in confusion, watching Lightning carefully exit the cell so she wasn't shot on the spot. What's going on? he wanted to ask her, though he kept his mouth shut. He had no clue about what Darren was so upset about, or what Lightning did to "outsmart" him.

Darren slammed the gate shut in fury, not allowing Terra the chance to escape. His plans were already foiled. He kept the gun pointed at Lightning, facing her still. "Tell me how you did it," he ordered lowly. "Tell me how you gave me a clone instead of the real deal!" Kairi wasn't even here; it was her stupid clone. "Where's the Princess!?"

 

Aqua blinked at that, her eyebrows furrowing. ...What? Did she just hear that right? Kairi...wasn't here, and there was a clone?
