Beginning Chapter Seven

laimlaimer: SquareEnix and Disney own Kingdom Hearts. I own this story, Mizu and some vicious Muse-bees. No money was made off of this, so if you sue, all you will get is nasty muse-bee stings.
I have another flame! Now Sora and Riku can have a nice romantic fire when I write the �Sora and Riku make out in front of the fireplace scene� for the entertainment of Yaoi-obsessed fan girls! Isn�t that great? I will put it in the �Goodies� chapter at the endthisthis fic. The �Goodies� chapter will include deleted scenes, explanation on the symbolism and of course the characters of the fic having a party celebrating the end of the story.
Sora: Is it my turn yet?

Aoi Nikko: Go ahead, Sora.

Sora: Welcome to chapter seven of �When All Things Come Back To You� This is a giftfic for the brilliant Uzumaki-sama. You should read her wonderful fics pronto!

Aoi Nikko: Read and review this one first please!

Sora: Uzumaki-sama, I salute you! *Salutes with Keyblade. Aoi Nikko bops him*

Aoi Nikko: Do the warning!

Sora: E-hehehe� This is a YAOI. That means to guys will be engaging in homosexual relations. You might want to leave if this bothers you.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, �A COMPLETE 180�!!!

Well, that�s that then. There are two stupid people who can�t read big bold letters. Don�t be the third! Onto the fic! I put a little something extra in here for you! Enjoy, my darling fan girls and boys! *Blows many kisses*

Chapter Sever, Part One:

Nothing�s Like Before�

The great doors of Hollow Bastion�s Chapel groan on their hinges as a small brunette pushes past them. He enters into the large, circular room slowly, blue eyes scanning the area. The chapel is pretty much empty with the princesses of heart gone, and his footsteps echo loudly as he walks into the center of the room.
The massive Heartless crest in the back of the room has been removed, the statues replaced with noble looking winged lions. Sora smiles faintly, they remind him of Leon. He glances around again. Other then those few changes, the room looks the same as it did when he was last here.
�I wonder where my friends are�� Sora says aloud, thinking of the King�s messengers. He remembered their panic stricken faces when he had vanished right before their eyes. He himself had been pretty scared. It had grown cold and dark and then a dense mist appeared, further blinding him to his surroundings. Afterwards there was a bright light, his Keyblade had been glowing. Shadows swirled around him, and he remembered trying to fight them, but they had no substance to them, at least not until they were ready to hit him. He remembers being forced into a sleep, and oh, how it hurt to fight against it! Hee ine in long moments after, he was too tired and in too much pain to struggle anymore.
It was then he had forgotten who he was.
Sora shakes the memories away. He didn�t want to reflect on it, he knew what happened next. Riku finds him, Riku deceives him�the one person he had trusted above everyone else. This isn�t even the worst part, however.
�Why�do I still feel the same?� Sora�s voice is wrought with misery and confusion. He collapses down upon the cold floor, leaning back on his hands and staring up at the bright glow coming from the window above.

�So if I get my memories back, I�ll lose the ones I have now? The ones I made with you?�

How he wishes he could. Maybe then he wouldn�t have to go through the myriad of emotions in his heart, all contradicting one another. is is indeed angry with Riku and a part of him wants nothing more to do with him. However, there is another part of him that believes Riku�s claim that he loves Sora, is willing to forgive what he has done.
Sorrns rns his thoughts away. How could he even think of forgiving Riku? He had done something unthinkable to him. He took advantage of him, deceived him, seduced him, made love to him-

�No, don�t even call it that. He had sex with you. There was no meaning behind that at all. None�

Ah, if only that were true. There is no revulsion on Sora�s end, no regrets. It is this that disturbs him the most, the fact that what they had done is the most fulfilling thing that has ever happened to him in his life. It had left him feeling whole, complete. Those feelings have not faded, regardless of what he forces himself to think. What has Riku done to him? Sora finds treacherous brain reminiscing on Riku�s soft and gentle touches, on how delicately he handled him. He remembers the feel of pale lips upon his own, and Riku�s sweet, sweet words�

�Thank you for letting me show you just how much I love you�how close I want to be to you�

Sora slides back, lying on his back on the floor, pushing his fists into his eyes. Dear gods, he loves him. No matter how hard he tries, he cannot deny it. Why did this have to be so hard to deal with? Why?
* * *
In the Library, the seven inhabitants of Hollow Bastion listen to their leader, Leon, who sits behind his desk looking at them all with his steel-blue eyes full of apprehension. The six others stand, sit or lean against bookshelves.
�What? Sora�s here and I didn�t even get to see him? You�ve gotta be kidding me!�
�You can see him after the meeting, Yuffie.� Aerith says gently to the dark haired girl sitting on Leon�s desk.
�That�s easy for you to say, you�ve seen him already!� Yuffie huffs, turning away from them all.
�Can we please get back on topic?� Cloud interrupts from behind the bookshelf to Leon�s left. �We have a serious matter to discuss.�
�Yeah, and how are you supposed to be discussing anything on the other side of the bookshelf, Cloud?� Yuffie snorts, rolling her eyes.
�That�s enough, Yuffie. He can hear us and we can here him, and that�s enough for me right now.� Leon knows why Cloud has distanced himself from the others, and isn�t going to press things. The reason is the six-foot tall, silver haired, aqua-eyed man standing close to the door, eyes burning into the bookshelf Cloud is hidden behind. From the bits and pieces of information he has heard, some from Aerith, most from Cloud himself; while the blond was searching for the pink clad mage, he was also running from Sephiroth who pursued him through all the worlds. Things got really bad when Sephiroth ran into him at the tournament in the Coliseum, and that led to strained relations when they all returned to Hollow Bastion. Sephiroth uses every spare moment of his time trying to catch Cloud alone; and Cloud spent all of his time hiding. Aerith is the only one who manages to find him no matter where he goes, and usually keeps that information secret, as per Cloud�s wishes.
�You were saying, Leon?� Aerith turns to Leon, trying to help get the meeting back on track.
�As I was saying, Sora is in Hollow Bastion. He says he came from what he believes is a heartless world.�
�Humph, if those sons of bitches are still around, that proves my theory on why the Gummi ship still works.� Cid says in his usual gruff voice. �Will they be back here, with the keyhole sealed?�
�It�s a possibility.� Aerith says. �The Heartless kept appearin wor worlds long after Sora sealed them.�
�Yeah, but that just means they can�t travel through the keyholes. How are they getting here?� Yuffie asks, her eyebrows knitting together thoughtfully.
�Are ya a simpleton?� Cid growls, turning on the ninja. �The Heartless have Gummi ships too!� He walks over to Leon�s desk. �If they land here, and we can get ahold of their ship, we can improve the one I�ve been working on.�
�And what would the purpose of that be?� A low, quiet voice says from Leon�s right. All eyes turned to a man wearing a red coat, one arm out of the sleeve and tucked into the front. �What use to us is leaving this world? Wouldn�t that be going against the wishes of that King you all are so fond of?�
Leon quietly considers the words of the red clad Samurai. �That�s true, Auron, but there may be some use in a usable Gummi Ship.�
�Hmph.� is Auron�s only reply.
Auron has always been a denizen of Hollow Bastion, however, when they all were forced to leave, no one knew what had happened to him. They dismissed him as one of the unfortunate taken by the heartless, but this was not so. They found him, sitting at the castle gates as if nothing had ever happened when they returned. He never speaks on where he was or what he did; in fact, he hardly ever speaks at all.
�We might be able to use it in case of an emergency and we have to leave again.� Aerith suggests, looking at everyone.
�Aw, Aerith, don�t jinx us!� Yuffie cries, narrowing her eyes at the mage.
�How about using it to get a look at the other worlds, make sure everything is all right? If we know what�s goin� on there, we�ll have a good idea on what to do.� Cid says thoughtfully.
�There�s no use worrying about it until it happens.� Came Cloud�s voice from behind his bookshelf. Leon glances over at it, hearing the impatience behind the voice. He knows Cloud wants to leave. He can feel the tension between him and Sephiroth even though the two aren�t speaking. It made him wonder what happened between them.
�Here�s a thought.� Comes a voice from near the door.
Everyone turns to the aqua-eyed swordsman in awe. Sephiroth never speaks to anyone except Cloud and on occasion, Aerith, and it was usually hostile. He never participates in meetings, spending the time staring at Cloud. At times, he is even more quiet and anti-social then Auron.
Sephiroth walks over to them, his steps decisive and full of grace. He gazes at them all with a false smile. �Why don�t we use it to send that Keyblade master on a one way trip out of here? From what I hear, those Heartless show up wherever he goes, trying to get his heart. If he�s not here, there�s no problem, right?�
�That�s not something we�re going to do.� Leon says coldly. �Sora fought with us, for us, and I�m not about to treat him like he�s trouble.�
�Then I think we should all prepare to fight Heartless.� Sephiroth turns to go back to the door.�
�I think you should do what you normally do; glare from your corner, keep your mouth shut, and let us do the thinking.� Cloud moves from behind the bookshelf, glaring at Sephiroth�s back.
�Cloud.� Leon sighs tiredly, �Don�t pick a fight here.�
�No, no�let him.� Sephiroth purrs, turning to face Cloud. He looks like a pleased kitten at Cloud�s stare.
�If you�re going to act like babies, maybe you should take a nap.� Auron interjects gruffly. �We don�t have time for your melodrama. If you can�t be serious, then leave.�
Cloud lifts his head defiantly, and walked out of the room without another word. Sephiroth moves to follow, but Leon calls him back.
�Alright, we�re pretty much done here. Aerith, find all of Ansem�s reports, and begin to research the Heartless again. Cid, keep working on that ship. Yuffie, do a quick sweep of the area for Heartless, take Sephiroth with you.�
�WHAT? But Leon-�
�IF you run into anything, you might need him. Auron-�
�Don�t bother. I know what I need to do.� Auron pulls away from the bookshelf he is leaning on and walks away. Yuffie rolls her eyes. Leon sighs and stands up, getting everyone�s attention.
�I�m going to help Aerith. We�ll have another meeting tomorrow morning with Sora. We�ll decide what to do then. Dismissed!�
Everyone files out of the library to start his or her assigned tasks, Sephiroth shooting the leather clad man an angry glare as he leaves with Yuffie. Leon and Aerith stay behind. The Library is the best place for research after all.
�It might have been better to have Auron go with Yuffie.� Aerith looks over at a weary Leon.
�And let him stalk Cloud and start another fight with him? I don�t think so.�
�We won�t be able to protect Cloud from him forever, you know.�
�I know. But, I will continue to help him until he�s ready to deal with it himself. Aren�t y Le Leon stands up to go downstairs with Aerith.
�Of course.� Aerith sighs. �Of course.�
�Then let�s stop worrying about it for now and get this work out of the way.�
* * *
Cloud wanders aimlessly through the lifts of Hollow Bastion, looking for a place to be alone. He shouldn�t have said anything like that at the meeting, shouldn�t have left like he did. Sephiroth just irritates him sometimes. To even think about sending Sora off like that� it makes Cloud very angry.
Sora reminds him of himself, the way he used to be before the heartless came and destroyed everything. The look in his eyes, the feelings hidden there, remind him of what he went through while he was looking for his light, and running from his darkness. At one point, though, he had started running from his light and looking for his darkness, confusing one for the other. It had caused him much pain and anguish, especially when he realized he was wrong. The darkness he had run to was not willing to let him go, and it still isn�t. If not for Aerith and Leon he wouldn�t know what to do. Eventually he will have to deal with it, he knows, but he isn�t ready. Not yet.
After a long while of wandering, he finds himself in the Chapel. He and Leon have used up a lot of nervous energy in here, ripping out all reminders of when Ansem lived here, and replacing things to make it look more like their home. It is going slowly, but the pace is just fine for him and Leon. Cloud walks in slowly, looking around and stopping short when he notices someone is there before him.
Sora is sprawled on the floor, his arms out to the side, staring up at the skylight, eyes expressionless. Cloud walks over and looked up at the skylight as well for a while.
�Y�know, no matter how long you stare at it, it never goes anywhere or does anything.� Cloud says softly, teasingly. Sora�s eyes flick over at Cloud for a second, and then he sits up. Cloud looks down at him.
�You look like you could use some company.�
�So do you.� Sora quietly replies.
Cloud smiles and lets out a breath. �I guess I do.�
Sora scoots over a little, an invitation for Cloud to sit next to him. Cloud did so, resting his arms on his knees. They stare at nothing for quite a while before Sora breaks the silence.
�Did you ever find it?�
Cloud looks over at Sora. �Find what?� He looks up at the skylight again. �You mean my light?� Sora nods once. �Yes.�
�That�s good.� Sora gazes up at the skylight. �At least one of us did.�
Is that what is bothering Sora? Disappointment? No, it has to be much deeper then that.
�You didn�t find yours?�
�No.� Sora is silent for a while before adding, �I thought I did, but it was only darkness��
�Sounds like a good portion of my journey.� Cloud murmurs without really meaning to. Sora turns his head to gape at him.
�What do you mean?�
Cloud drops his eyes to the floor. �I spent most of my time looking for my light. I wandered through the worlds, searching, and at some point, I�m not sure how, I ended up lost in the darkness.�
Cloud pauses for a moment, continuing to stare at thoor.oor. �I wasningning too, Sora. Running from a person that brought things out in me that frightened me.� Cloud takes a breath and shakes his head. �Running only brought me right to them, and I had almost forgotten what it was I was looking for. I had almost forgotten that I hadn�t found it yet. I realized what I was dong and it really messed up my head, I made some stupid decisions. It was at that point in my life I met you.�
�Yeah, I remember.� Soras.
