Riku

[COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma][CENTER]OoC: Huzzah!! I am back from my trips and dead tired. *collapses* @.@ By the way, Asim and Acheron, your fight is kick ass, yo... gangsta style. I luffs it. :D ~*~[/CENTER] It was time for Riku to face his past and live up to it... by defeating the one person that helped the darkness grow deep inside him. It was Xemnas' fault that he couldn't find his way out, that he had created the Organization and the Nobodies and that he had to fight Roxas to find out why he was like Sora. Everything that Riku could think of was all Xemnas' fault... him and no one else's. And now was the time to defeat him once and for all to show that the Shadow and Darkness would never win, even though it looked as if it had swallowed everything whole. Riku sprinted faster than what he had ever ran before, his right arm bent over his face wielding Way To Dawn ready to swing and yelling at the top of his lungs, his whole force melted inside his anger. As he finally got into arms length, he jumped up towards Xemnas and swung his Keyblade in the direction of his head as his target... still yelling like a strong lion. All Xemnas did was look up at the striking Riku, smiling and laughing with a sinister feeling to it as if it was gouging everyone's stomach. [B]"Exactly what I want from you, dear pawn,"[/B] he said in hearing length. But before he finished his sentence, he winked at the oncoming Riku and dissapeared in the blink of an eye, causing Riku to slice down onto the gritty sand and landing on his left hand and knees in a small sandy fog. Before Riku could turn around, Xemnas kicked his side and sent him tumbling towards the ocean, coughing up salty blue water. He then teleported again towards the fallen teen, picking up his long silver hair and pulling it to his level roughly, causing pain surging through Riku's head. [B]"...all this rage and anger... aim it at me because that's exactly how I'm going to bring you back with me."[/B] He then pulled on Riku's hair a little bit longer before he threw him back towards the water. The silver haired teen slowly got back up on his hands and knees, thinking of what to do or say. [B]"How the hell am I supposed to beat him?!"[/B] he loudly thought to himself, gripping the sand with his hands, allowing it to trickle through his fingers, [B]"...all he does is mock me and when he says that I should strike at him with my anger..."[/B] He paused and stood silent for a second... what would he do? What [I]could[/I] he do? After all... fighting is part of anger... was this part of Xemnas' plan to bring him back to the darkness? He thought for awhile and stood back up, facing his back towards everyone and hanging his head low. Xemnas crossed his arms and tilted his head upward slightly. [B]"So, giving up this little 'savior' gig and coming back with me?"[/B] Sora, Kairi and the new boy who was named Seth looked at Riku, wanting to know what he was going to say. [B]"Maybe... I don't like to feel that I need to fight to protect every little thing..." [/B] Riku finally replied. [B]"Riku! No! Wait!"[/B] Sora yelled, reaching his hand towards his best friend whilest his face was in sadness. Riku couldn't do this... no... he changed.. he's not like this anymore... [B]"Wait a minute, Sora..."[/B] Seth had replied. Both Kairi and Sora looked at him in surprise, wondering how he would know Riku when he barely even knows him. [B]"I may not know Riku that well,"[/B] he continued, [B]"... but I know he's not that stupid... you've just got to trust him."[/B] Everyone continued to look at Riku, who slowly turned to face everyone with his bright emerald eyes glowing in the dim light. Through the scilence, Xemnas was the first to speak, slowly walking towards him. [B]"Have you finally come to your senses?" [/B] He stopped right in front of Riku, raising his right hand towards him and opening his palm. Riku looked at it for awhile and slowly looked back up at Xemnas, then raising his hand slowly towards his. Whilest Xemnas was smiling and Sora trying to stop him, Riku looked up at the stars and then back at Xemnas, winking. [B] "Idiot.. always believing everything you see...."[/B] [B]"What?!"[/B] Xemnas shouted, anger flittered over his face and raising his weapon towards Riku... but then stopped, his face in anguish. He slowly turned his head around, seeing another Riku behind him stabbing his back with Way To Dawn. The Riku in front of him dissapeared with glittery silver sparkles... obviously a doppleganger. He then looked at Riku, slowly dissapearing with black smoke and trying to speak with his last breath... [B]"Wh...why would you be.. betray me?"[/B] Riku looked at him sternly yet his face was filled with mercy. [B]"Because... because I've changed... and I don't need to become lost in your... and even my greed for power."[/B] And with that, Xemnas' body dissapeared within black smoke... floating up towards the dark midnight sky whilest everyone looked up at it, especially Riku. Everyone ran over to him, hugging him and talking while he tried to smile... yet he still felt pain for that Nobody. Is this all the world is? Just... just spinning with pain and fighting? This lingered in Riku's mind... was he better than the Organization? [CENTER][I]Dear Riku... it is time for you to see that you are fighting to save the world...[/I][/CENTER] Everyone looked around, wondering where the voice was coming from. [B] "Who.. who's there?!" [/B] Riku yelled, wielding his Keyblade in front of his face. [I][CENTER]It is I... The One who will lead you on the right path... It is time to see what you will be protecting...[/CENTER][/I] And then suddenly... a bright light appeared before them, causing everyone to shield their eyes from going blind. As soon as they saw the light, their eyes became heavy... falling into a deep sleep. But before Riku fell asleep, he said, [B]"Am.. am I doing the right thing?"[/B] And then he heard... [I][CENTER]You are.... and never lose sight of what is precious to you...[/CENTER][/I] And then.. Riku fell into sleep... wondering what would happen to him and everyone else....[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma]Sweetness. XD I are claiming the spot next because I never got to take my chance in the beginning of the worm. ;-; And now I get to continue on from teh sexy Kairi. :D EDIT: And huzzah I am finally finished! I am so in love with this piece because it has Riku in it AND I worked hard on it... I must say, this is my favorite piece that I've evar done. Oh... and if anyone cares (or can see it, for that matter), the kanji is Riku's name... finally found a kanji font!! :D Okay... shutting up now. [URL=http://img79.imageshack.us/img79/8277/rikuchanwormentrysn4.png]Riku[/URL] [/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma][B]"Yes... so it is you... what was your name again? ...Ansem?"[/B] Riku's mind had over-flooded with dark memories about his wrong choices... about his greed for more power... something that he wanted to be forgiven for.. but by whom? All he could do was watch as his past flew by his eyes, trying to stop it... but his throat in a dry rasp. He was stronger than this, way stronger.... but why couldn't he just snap out of it? [B]"Please Riku... snap out of it..."[/B] said a soft yet kind voice, helping him remember that this was all of the past, it wasn't going to happen again... not without a fight. His body jolted upright, helping him wake from his horrible nightmare and mild coma. He softly rubbed his forhead with his right hand, looking to his side to see a happy Kairi lightly hugging him. [B]"Riku...!"[/B] Kairi responded, [B]"You had me worried there..."[/B] He smiled at her handsomely yet kindly, wiping away the rest of his tears that were flowing. [B]"Yeah, I'm sorry,"[/B] he finally replied, slowly standing up, [B]"... I was... settling things with my past memories."[/B] He then lifted his hand to help Kairi onto her feet and turned towards the ocean, watching Sora trying to fight off Xemnas with all his might. [B]"We won't let you take him!" [/B] Sora yelled at the top of his lungs, swinging his Keyblade downwards towards Xemnas... only to be blocked easily, causing the brown haired boy to recoil backwards. Sora stood upright, growling as he continued to serve more blows. [B]"It is futile, young fool,"[/B] Xemnas replied, still easily blocking all of Sora's blows, [B]"I will take him back... no matter what you or anyone else tries to do." [/B] He then lifted his blade over his head and swung it down on Sora's left shoulder, causing him to fall down on his hands and knees, clutching it tightly. Suddenly... Riku stepped forward, lifting his hand and summoning Way To Dawn with silver sparkles. He nodded to Sora, saying that he could handle it now, and then looked back at Xemnas with a scowl on his face. [B]"Welcome back,"[/B] Xemnas chuckled, his hands on his hips, [B]"You know I won't let you leave to cry again."[/B] Riku's face still flittered with anger, but he then smirked... knowing that this was the last time they would ever see Xemnas again. [B]"It's all over."[/B] And with that, Riku started sprinting towards the smirking Nobody, his right arm bent upwards in front of his face tightly gripping his Keyblade, shouting as if he was roaring like a lion ready to pounce on his prey. [CENTER]~*~ OoC: Huzzah... I edited it, but I'll post the fight of Xemnas and Riku in my next post. Everyone... this thing is going damn well.. I are so happy. Oh yeah, and after Riku defeats Xemnas, whoever is on the Destiny Islands will be transported to Twilgith Town, okay?[/CENTER][/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma]Well... an obsessive Riku fangirl coming your way. [CENTER][URL=http://img159.imageshack.us/my.php?image=rikuir1.png][IMG]http://img159.imageshack.us/img159/9937/rikuir1.th.png[/IMG][/URL][/CENTER] This fangirly wallpaper was a pain in the *** to make... especially trying to keep the vertical row of Riku pictures in a straight line. It was especially fun to make... what with my obsession keeping me in line. :P Bow down to the Riku fangirl, ya'll. :DD[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma]Yeah... that's a great plot. Let's not go deep into it, though... it might confuse people. :/[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma]Okay... this bickering is stupid. Split Keyblader... I'm sorry. But what I've seen so far, you don't read previous posts, make up your own crap and you're spelling sucks ***. Sure you may have great grades in English, but in your posts.... they aren't the best I've ever seen. Yes, I told Doublehex... I told him to tell you that you can't post anymore. From what I've seen... you've just ruined the RP with your bad posts. And truthfully... you've pissed me off with your horrible posting. Work on it, please... I would like to see you progress more. Other than that... this fight is over. I don't want this to be deleted because if this stupid spamming that has [B]NOTHING[/B] to do with the actual RP... let's just move on. Anyways.. the RP is progressing greatly. I'd like to see this continue. =3[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[CENTER][COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma]OoC: Some of you might have to edit your post because of changing in characters and deleting of people. ~*~[/CENTER] [B]"Wait just a damn minute!" [/B] Riku yelled towards the man running away, kneeling down beside Sora to help him up. But it was already too late... the second cloaked man had ran so fast that he couldn't find him in the darkness. He helped Sora up and growled at the first cloaked man they fought with, wielding Way To Dawn in front of his face and pointed it straight at the hooded figure with the dark blue keyblade. [B]"You bastard.... who was that you just summoned?!"[/B] he finally said, his face angered and annoyed. Sora had finally gotten up from his mild daze and started running to the water, looking at Riku. [B]"Riku!! You take care of that bastard!! I'll see who this is over here!"[/B] Riku sharply nodded and turned back to the hooded figure, ready to fight. [B]"I don't know who the hell you think you are,"[/B] he muttered, [B]".. but I'm not going to let you take anyone that I cherish!"[/B] He started sprinting with his weapon behind his back, ready to strike. All the hooded figure could do is laugh and rested his right hand on his hip, his Keyblade hanging loosely. He then shifted his head upward a little, mocking Riku, finally saying, [B]"Well... you don't even remember my voice, do you?"[/B] When Riku got into arm length, he simply lifted his Keyblade gently and blocked it easily. Riku continued to try to get the swing through, but his face was in confusion. [B]"Who are you?"[/B] he tried to speak, but his throat was dry. When he finally realized he couldn't break the man's block, he jumped back and swung Way To Dawn down forcefully, anger flittered all over his face. [B]"Damn you! Just show me your face and quit hiding behind that hood!!"[/B] The man snickered, finally putting his left hand over his black hood and removing it.... white- yellowish hair flowing down from it, a bit spikey yet straight at the top and his skin had a light tan. His face could be seen from the dim moonlight, his mouth smiling small yet handsomely. [B]"Remember me now.... Riku?"[/B] Riku could only stare and look at him, past memories haunting him... causing him to fall to the ground on his hands and knees, gasping for air and sweat falling from his brow. [B]"X... Xem..."[/B] The figure slowly walked over to Riku and picked up a sliver of his silver hair, pulling it up to his level, laughing at the speechless yet hypnotized look on Riku's face. He started slapping it hard with his hand, his expression in a mildly evil look. "Well well well... what a way to greet me." Before he could slap Riku anymore, he suddenly, he saw a young girl running towards them, her face in an angered rage. [B]"Xemnas!!"[/B] Kairi yelled, raising her hands and summoning her version of a weapon. [B]"Put Riku down right now or I'll slice your hand off!"[/B] Xemnas scoffed at her and throwing the hypnotized teen towards her, allowing her to catch him in her arms. He then put his right arm over his stomach and bowed low to her, his long white hair flowing onto the sandy and gritty ground. [B]"It is an honor to meet you again[/B]," he then looked up at her, his face happy, [B]"... Miss Kairi."[/B] Kairi looked at him angrilly and then sadly back at Riku, trying to snap him out of his horrible nightmare. [B]"Riku..." [/B] she spoke softly, trying to wake him up, [B]"Riku... it's okay. You won't be taken away... or left alone in the darkness anymore..."[/B] Riku didn't respond.... only just sitting up in the sand covered by her soft touch, his arms and hands laying droopily on his side. His eyes looked as if it didn't have a glow anymore... he was remembering the horrible past... his demons. His forhead started forming more sweat... and his deep green eyes were over-flowing with blue tears.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma]I've made so many new friends in the past few weeks, so I would like to add more. [B]Acheron[/B]- He might be an adult, but I love him so much because he understands my fangirly-ness over Riku and Kingdom Hearts. I've had an AIM conversation with him once and we'd RP... and I can't wait to talk to him again. He is so nice, funny and a hell of an RPer. [B]Doublehex[/B]- I met him through RiflesAtRecess and he's totally awesome. We discuss RP plots, stories and video game stories. He's just awesome to talk to... plus he helps me with my RPs. n.n [B]Revelation[/B]- Because I would like to meet this nice and wonderful person. [B]Athena[/B]- We've talked a little in a chatroom and she's the nicest damn person evar. She gives awesome hugs, too. =3 [B]DW[/B]- Because I would like to further our conversation on babies. [B]Sakura[/B]- Her attitude and RPing makes me envy her yet love her so much. She helps me out and we always talk about our favorite bishis. [B]Jokopoko[/B]- Because he will always be my one and only Digi Master. [B]Kitty[/B]- Because her RP posts are teh sex and she's so awesome.. I luff her! And anyone else I forgot... gomen. n.n[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma]Gah! So sorry that I didn't see this until now! I thought I would never be abble to post a picture. Anyways... the picture. [CENTER][IMG]http://digilander.libero.it/SpazioAnimeManga/mi-image/kyoko.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER] It's a really old anime... but it had it's wonderful romantic charms... and pervs.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma]*Sigh* Dammit... I knew this was going to happen... and it took me a long time to think of this story, too... *cries* Anyways, I am sorry to say this.... but I'm going to ask a Moderator to delete all posts except the first... thus having us making a fresh and clean start. As for the new requirements... only [B]one character per person[/B].. it makes it a damn lot easier. Second requirement... [B]POST NEATLY[/B]. I'm absolutely mad right now because it seems to me that some people aren't even reading the other posts, apparently don't know who to spell or even know the word "grammer" and lastly.... they think they can switch the whole damn story around and post whatever they want!!! [B]NO, THAT IS NOT WHAT RPING IS ABOUT[/B]. If this is your first time in an RP, then I kind of feel for you... but if it's not.. work on your crappy spelling. Another thing... I've been thinking that there can be no Anti- characters or characters from different times. If these two describes your character, please PM me a new one because I just think it'll cause more confusion. I'm really sorry... *bows* After saying all that, from hearing about these two so far... [B]Deathsye and Split Keyblader[/B], you're not allowed back into the new Shadows of Fate RP. I'm sorry... but I apparently don't care the ******* what you think of me right now because you both are screwing it up, what with your new characters or plots. That's for me to know and for you to find out and post [B]CORRECTLY[/B]. You both have taken rusty bolts and shoved them into my eyes with your crappy posts... thus causing my eyes to freaking bleed. What? There was a master hiding and watching the hooded enemy, Deathsye? He has Katanas?!? From what I read in my first post.... he has a keyblade. But wow, what a shocker! Malificent's on the island, Split Keyblader?! Oh my gosh... I didn't know that!! But apparently Sora did, huh? Sorry to sound like a b****, but I'm not the only one who thinks this, either. You both need to learn how to spell check and read pasts posts because I won't let you screw up something that took up weeks just to create. I thought my story would go out nicely... not screw up into some big sloppy mess. Other than that... the RP is closed until I can find a Mod who will delete all the posts except the first so that we can start over. Sorry for all the trouble. *bows*[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=1][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma]Ever since I was little, I've always watched those olf Kung- Fu movies and wanted to be just like Bruce Lee or Jackie Chan. Well... the only Martial Arts I've really taken is [B]Jujitsu[/B] when I was really small. It was fun but a bit hard learning new moves and throws. My favorite part of the whole thing was when we were able to show people what we could do in a real life situation which was awesome. Every class, we would always practice first, have to jump and roll over someone and then we learn new moves. Needless to say.... after I graduated to Green Belt, I quit because I guess I was lazy. :P Now I regret it, wanting to do it all over again and learn other arts, such as [B]Karate[/B]. I miss me doing some hard work yet learning something that could protect me in a few years or so.[/FONT][/SIZE][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=SlateGray][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma]Riku got up on his hands and knees, sputtering water and coughing up a little blood in the blue ocean. He looked up at a grinning Sora, who didn't seem as tired as he was before... yet even more healthy looking, his Oblivion Keyblade on his shoulder and the Ultima Weapon on his hips. Sora started laughing at the beaten Riku, pointing Ultima straight at the silver haired teen. [B]"Wow... this is the first time I've ever seen the great Riku down on his knees,"[/B] he mocked, [B]"...sad to see that you're on the ground instead of me?"[/B] After wiping his mouth of freshly running blood and shaking off the daze he had, Riku put his right hand under his sliver bangs and pulled it back, his hair dripping of ocean water and shining in the hot sun. He looked at Sora and smirked, lifting his sunglasses over his eyes and placing them on the top of his head, laughing a little. [B]"So... I see you've gotten a bit stronger,"[/B] he grunted and then sticking both hands out to the side, his head hanging a little while silvery glitter fluttered around his hands, both the Soul Eater and Way To Dawn back into his hard grip. He then lifted Soul Eater over his head and shouted, [B]"Cure!"[/B] causing a healthy green glow like that of Sora's to float around him, curing his wounds and cuts. He looked over towards Sora again, smiling even wider. [B]"I guess we're back to square one, huh?"[/B] [B]"Heh... seems like you've learned a lot since we've been gone, huh?"[/B] Sora chuckled, crossing both Keyblades in front of his chest and swinging them both towards his sides. He then lifted Ultima over his head and Oblivion on it's opposite side read to swing and started running, grunting as he got closer. Riku smiled and started running towards the oncoming Sora, Way To Dawn and Soul Eater pointed behind his back so that it would allow him to run a little faster. As both ran a little ways and got into arms reach, they both jumped upward and readied their weapons. Sparks flying and metal clashing, they started throwing combos at each other, the recieving end trying to block. If Sora lifted Ultima over his head, then Riku lifted Soul Eater in front of his face, blocking the sheer power of his might. After a few minutes, Sora twirled upward and straightened out, pointing his body towards Riku had gained some momentum and speed. He yelled a battle cry and held Oblivion ready to swing and Ultima behind his back. [B]"Sonic!"[/B] he had finally yelled, unleashing a few slashes aimed at Riku's chest. The flying Riku crossed both weapons over his chest, blocking the attacks and grunting at the recoil he had to face. After landing on the sand, they bent down and jumped up again.... Sora spinned clockwise and yelled[B],"Rave!" [/B] spinning and unleashing even more attacks and opening his legs and slashing in between them. Riku was able to guard them all, but his strength was weakening fast. He started sweating again and smiled at Sora. [B]"Bring it,"[/B] he was finally able to say. Sora smiled back, then spinning upward and turning towards Riku, coming down fast and pointing Ultima at him. [B]"Blast!"[/B] He finally got in range and got ready to strike when Riku suddenly pointed Soul Eater straight at the uncoming Sora, calmly casting a spell. [B]"Stop."[/B] Suddenly, Sora couldn't take a slash at Riku.... in fact, his whole body was froze. [B]"W... what the crap?!"[/B] he shouted, trying to move his arms but unsucceeding. He saw a smiling Riku coming closer to him, both Keyblades behind his back. Riku spun upwards to Sora with his Keyblades pointed downwards, [B]"You remember this spell, don't you? It's my turn, now..." [/B] And then, when he was ready, he unleashed millions of attacks that looked as if he was only slashing twice. Sora's pained expression could be seen, but he still couldn't move. When they were in the ground's distance, Riku spun backwards and landed softly on his feet while Sora came crashing down on his back, mildly dazed. Both Keyblade's on his shoulders, Riku chuckled. [B]"I can tell you like the sand a lot... always running into it."[/B][/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[CENTER][COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma][IMG]http://img478.imageshack.us/img478/1830/khlogojr2.gif[/IMG] [I]It is that time once again for the heros of the light to stand up to the demons of the darkness..... It is time for the world to vanquish the evil in the heart and finally be cleansed of poison.... It is time.... for us to step forward and realize this wish.[/I] +~+~+~+~+~+~+~+[/CENTER] It was already nightfall... the darkness has spread throughout the island and only the bright shine of the evening stars illuminated the sparkling ocean. Everything was quiet and everyone was inside their houses, asleep and dreaming of fantasies that could never be truly fufilled. The Destiny Islands were quiet and uneventful as usual... nothing ever happened, everyone played outside on the beach and the only way you could ever get out of that place was to look up at the sky and dream of your own adventures.... Riku looked up at the bright, starry sky... thinking of everything that had happened two years ago... wondering what would happen to this peaceful place. He then looked up at the moon that was shrouded in dark clouds and closed his eyes, letting the passing breeze cool his hot face, his long silver hair shining in the dim moonlight's rays. [B]"I wonder... we've just come back here from our long adventure,"[/B] he calmly whispered to himself, [B]"..but... I still have this feeling that something is going to happen. Something that makes me want to get off this island and leave forever...."[/B] He then sighed again and climbed out of his bed and sat on the balcony of his window, gently laying his head on the wooden side and continued to look into the sky. "Hey Riku!" Riku gasped softly and looked down, only to see the brown-spikey haired Sora calling to him from below, still wearing his black attire. [B]"Sora? What the hell are you doing up?!"[/B] Sora grinned a big grin and pointed at the direction of the beach being overlapped by the waves.[B] "I couldn't sleep... and I thought you would be awake too. So... you wanna sit down in front of the ocean?"[/B] [B]"Well... I don't know. I mean, we always do that everyday, anyways."[/B] [B]"But the waves are more special when you look at them in the moonlight!"[/B] Sora nagged, really wanting to see the ocean. Riku sighed and chuckled a bit. [B]"Fine, fine. Don't throw a temper tantrum... I mean geez, how old are you?"[/B] He kneeled down on his window pane and jumped onto the sandy surface, mumbling at the slight pain in his foot. [B]"I'm younger than you, old man. So I get an excuse to act like a little kid!" [/B] He smiled again and lifted his hand out to Riku. Riku looked up at his best friend and took his hand, smiling and then giving him a small noogie. [B]"Who are you calling old man, kid?!" [/B] The two laughed and played around for a little while. Riku had finally let go of Sora, only to have him look up at the port, revealing a man in a black trenchcoat, a hood covering his face. Sora looked up at Riku with a confused look. [B]"Riku... hey what's wrong, man?"[/B] [B]"Look. Over there on the port."[/B] Sora looked towards the direction, also seeing the dark man walking on the harbor. He gasped and lifted his hand behind him, summoning his Keyblade and growling. Riku quickly gasped and held him back. [B]"Wait! Don't you see if that's one of the Organization members, they'll feel the power of the Keyb..."[/B] Suddenly, the cloaked man stopped walking and looked towards the two as if he always knew where they were. [B]"Damn! He saw us!"[/B] Riku grimaced and lifted his right hand, summoning his verson of a Keyblade, which had a red and black fin for a blade and a little angel wing coming out of the handle. He stood ready for the attacker and awaited, only thinking to himself, [B]"Is... is the same thing going to happen to us like two years ago? ....Will I have the same fate of getting lost in the... darkness?"[/B] And then, the figure slowly lifted his hand and pointed straight at Riku.... a voice coming out of the darkness... [CENTER][I]It is time... for you to see if you belong in the darkness or the light... come... and show the world how strong your heart is... and then you will truly know wether or not you are in the right place. It is time..... for a new beginning.[/I][/CENTER] And then suddenly, the hodded figure slowly lifted his right hand to his side as if he was about to summon something. Riku and Sora looked at him a little dumbfoundedly until white and gold sparkles flashed around his hand, forming in the shape of a weapon... that looked just like a Keyblade. Riku's face was in surprise... there were so many wielders... but another one? He frowned again and got into his fighting stance, putting his left foot in front of the other, his left hand pointing straight and his right wielding Way To Dawn over his head. [B]"So... he wan'ts a fight, huh?"[/B] he finally said. [B]"Riku... do you even know who this is?"[/B] Sora asked in surprise, also in stance and Keyblade ready to fight. [B]"No, I don't...."[/B] he responded, but smirking this time, [B]"....but let's found out now, shall we?"[/B] Without any further hesitation, Riku started sprinting towards the unkown enemy, not letting him go without a little conversation.

[B]Personality: [/B] Ayana is a girl that likes to think outside of where she lives, thinking of where she would like to go and travel. In any situation, she's the brains and she tries to calm others down when the situation gets worse. Whenever she's in battle, she tries to keep her gentle exterior and fights using her martial arts that she learned when she was younger. [B]Back- Story:[/B] Her parents divorced when she was little, thus having to end up living with her hard working father. They live in a quaint little home in Japan, where her father's comapny is at so it's easier for him to get to work faster. A little while ago, he's been really busy, so Ayana hasn't been able to see him that much... making her a little lonely. Since she has nothing else to really do, she's been practicing all kinds of martial arts... ranging from Karate to Jujitsu. She goes out a lot on her own and visits her mother's house from time to time, really missing the chance to live with her. She never shows her real emotions because she feels that it's a weakness. No one around her knows what she's really feeling because her inner emotions differ from her outward. One day when Ayana was walking in the nearby park at night, she went over to her favorite Sakura tree to sit down. As she walked over to it, she saw a faded glow under some of the petals. She kneeled down and slowly moved the petals, revealing a strange silverish-gray technical device which was fadely glowing. Extremely fascinated by it, she picked it up and put it in her pocket... walking home with her jean pocket fadely glowing. It seems that the Elemental of Temperance choose her because of the fact no one knows what she's truly feeling. Her parent's divorce caused her to act this way because she feels that if she does show what she really feels, then it might open her to weakness. She has some friends.. but even they don't understand her.... she rarely opens up to them and she hardly ever talks period. She's a walking engima to others... smiling when she's mad and frowning when she's happy. Ayana doesn't understand why she does this, it just feels natural and she gets the feeling that she needs to do this... opening up to people only reveals your weakness.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR][/CENTER]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma]Well... I'll try to make things more to your liking. 1: I am going to add more worlds later, but if you would like to travel to worlds with your character, just specify that in your post. 2: Okay then... how about we just say that you can buy things and not be too technical with munny. 3: As I've said, if you would like to, you can change your weapon. Just be sure to post a new picture in this thread and explain the new features. If you dn't want to change weapons, you won't have to.... as how I probably won't change Riku's Soul Eater to any other weapons except Way To Dawn. Hope I've helped.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma]Heck yes.... count me in. I'm willing to help in this because I think this is a great idea to help people who need it in RPs. I'm kind of tired seeing new RP's being open in the Adventure Inn, yet the grammer is totally horrible, spelling isn't very good and sentence structure is becoming worse and worse. I like RPs and I also like helping people, so this is a really, really awesome idea. I can make some graphics, too. As to where White shouldn't be the only one doing it. =D[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[CENTER][COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma][IMG]http://img478.imageshack.us/img478/1830/khlogojr2.gif[/IMG] Welcome to the Underground Headquarters for my RP thread, [B]Shadows of Fate[/B]. This is the place as to where you would like to have your questions answered, some help dealing with the RP or the plot, character confusion or wanting to make sure of something before you are able to do it. As for this first post, I will talk about the main things about this RP. [U][B]Destination[/B][/U] [IMG]http://kingdomhearts.rpgplanet.gamespy.com/kingdomhearts1/media/art/thumbs/destinyisland.jpg[/IMG] Destiny Islands is where we will be starting our journey at, thus Riku, Sora, Kairi and anyone else living here should at least talk about in their post exactly where they are. Others who are living in different places, if you could say where you are or at least give a decent discription would help others know where you are. [U][B]Traveling[/B][/U] As we all know, in the Kingdom Hearts games, the characters travel to different worlds using the Gummi Ship. Here in this RP, we won't be using that because I feel it would cause a little bit more confusion. So, in order to travel to other worlds, all your character has to do is summon a portal leading to another world. I feel this is a bit more easier and you don't have to spend all your money on Gummi parts. :D [U][B]Worlds[/B][/U] We won't be having very many worlds because I feel that would drag on the story a little too long, so I have picked a few that I think would do well in the story. Whenever we change worlds, I will post a picture of that world here. [B]*Twilight Town *Magical Castle *Destiny Islands *The World That Never Was *Hollow Bastion (Or otherwise known as Radiant Garden) *Halloween Town *Beast's Castle[/B] And I will be adding a little bit more if I can think of anything else. Also, if there are any main Disney characters in the World, we will be helping them with their problems as we go. After all.. isn't that the main reason there are any worlds in the first place? I don't have any main plots about the problems, so I'll just be writing about them in my post. Everyone will meet up in different places, but we must meet up soon because we can't have everyone running around all over the place. [U][B]Battles[/B][/U] In order for your character to become stronger, you must initate a fight with Heartless and Bosses. We won't have levels, but after you beat a Boss, you will learn one of your ablities/magic because it's harder than a normal battle. When you fight with a heartless/ boss, you must write about it and give it a detailed description. You can fight a few or a lot of heartless at a time, but remember that if there are heartless, it usually means a boss is around. When fighting with someone, please either post a picture of it or a detailed description... but ONLY with Heartless, I will be posting the main Bosses. Also, HP and MP will be used.... but not like a KH battle in the game. *When you lose HP, you must write about it in your post as in this example: "The shadow Heartless slashed at Riku's ribs, causing blood to drip down his body and having to hold his right hand over the wound." *When you lose MP, you must write about it in your post as in this example: "Riku tried to cast Curaga, but he couldn't because he was slowly losing his strength." Remember, the character's aren't Gods, so they can't be invincible all the time. [U][B]Munny and Shopping[/B][/U] Ah munny.... the currency you must use in order to buy things. In order to get munny, you must beat heartless and bosses, which they will drop a certian amount of money. Here's how many each will drop: *Heartless- 20 munny (each one) *Boss- 500 munny (+ 30 if there are any other enemies helping him) As for items, there will only be Potions and Antidotes, which cure your HP and and deletes any status alignments you have. You can only hold 5 items each character, so I suggest you use these items only if you need them. You can buy these at stores that will be around when you travel in different worlds. *Potions- 5 munny *Antidote- 10 munny As for buying weapons, there will be none as that would prove to become more difficult. Just stick to the weapon you have posted in your sign-up and fight with it until the end of the RP. You can make it change just a little, but it must be the same weapon and nothing else. ~*~ Well... I feel that's everything that I need to explain so far. We all will meet up in Twilight Town as I've said, for it'll be the second world we'll be traveling to and those on the Destiny Islands will be there for awhile. I will be adding special enemies that I have made up on my own and plots will be added also. Any questions, feel free to post them in here and I or anyone else will try to answer them. Are you ready for the battle of the heart? Look for the RP to start in the Adventure Square tomorrow!![/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR][/CENTER]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma]I'm surprised that no one's responded to this easy request... :P Anyways... here's my version of the avi. [CENTER][IMG]http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c307/CloudsOnly189/Avi.gif[/IMG][/CENTER] Hope it's to your liking.... I loved the picture, by the way.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma]Wow.... so many additional Sign-Ups.... all these are very nice. Well, just to save me some time... [B]those who have recently signed up have just joined[/B]. ^^ It's going to be hard to try and keep this organized with so many people, but I'm sure it's going to be a lot of fun. For those that haven't finished those sign- ups, just send it to me via PM. Other than that... this sign- up thread is [B]closed.[/B] Look for the RP to start around Monday!![/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DeepSkyBlue][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma]I totally feel with you, visualkei. Even though no one's ever told me that my art "sucks", I really understand where you're coming from.. and it must kind of hurt, huh? People don't realize that the art of drawing comes from practicing and the love for it. Just because you don't draw like a well-known manga artist doesn't mean you literally suck... having the love to draw everyday will help you through. Different people who criticize your work wrongly or say that you can't draw worth crap aren't to be taken seriously... heck don't listen to them. They're just jealous cause they can't draw or either they're the kind of people who are amazing artists yet are still lame artists in comments. I know that I'm not that great at drawing myself, but no matter who the artist is, I try to give them the best comment possible because I don't want anyone to stop drawing because of me. Only thing I really have to say is that don't listen to them and keep drawing. And also... don't give them the pleasure of making you upset.. they just suck. Period.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=SlateGray][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma][CENTER]OoC: I'm sure it will be, Sakura. After all, you'll be kicking my a** momentarilly. XD ~*~[/CENTER] Riku smirked and chuckled a bit, quite anxious to see how stong Sora had become after their long journey. Even though they both fought many enemies and bosses, physical strength wasn't the only thing that grew stronger.... their hearts had also matured, making them the best warriors here on the islands. This was a test of strength... a test of heart and to see how strong their friendship had become after being away from each other for so long... After his Keyblade's appeared between his strong yet sweaty palms, he lifted his right hand towards his dark- blue sunglasses, shifting them down towards his bright green eyes, shading them from the hot inferno rays... signaling the start of the battle. He then lifted Soul Eater over his head and pointed Way To Dawn straight at Sora, smiling kindly yet strongly to let his friend know that he wasn't going to go easy on him. On the other side, Sora stood ready with the Ultima Weapon and Oblivion in position, standing in his own fighting stance which he had learned from many Heartless battles. Sora smiled at Riku and gave him a thumbs up. [B]"Riku... even though you were better than me before, don't mistake me for the little boy I once was."[/B] Hearing this, Riku stood normally, letting his Keyblade's dangle by his sides. He then laughed a little and put his hands on his hips. [B]"Good grief, Sora. You act as if I'm retarded or something,"[/B] he said, still laughing, [B]"It's not like I stopped fighting ever since we left here.... just watch out because I've got a few tricks up my sleeve...."[/B] Suddenly, Riku vanished into thin air... Sora not knowing where he had gone. The brown spikey haired boy grimaced and looked around, remembering this move from when they fought before in Hallow Bastion. [B]"Damn you, Riku!!"[/B] he finally shouted, his face pouted like that of a little kid, [B]"...that just isn't fair, you jerk!"[/B] [B]"So... I see you haven't changed very much in attitude, huh?"[/B] Sora gasped loudly, turning around to see a flash of silver coming from Riku's hair as he had jumped high in the air, Way To Dawn ready to strike behind his back. Just as fast as the speed of light, he raised the winged sword over his head and violently striking it down in the direction of Sora's forehead. But it didn't succeed that much... Sora had lifted Ultima Weapon with his right hand just in time to block the attack, grunting at the strength Riku was giving it. [B]"Heh... seems that you underestimated me."[/B] Riku and Sora both grunted, trying to make their attack hit the other. He pushed down harder with his right, his muscles starting to tense and ache... while Sora was reduced to kneeling down, trying to keep his guard up. Their swords both started sparking from the heat of the fight and also the blades. Suddenly, Riku swung the sword to his side and jump backward, splashing in the ridges of the delicate blue waves. Sora stood up and harshly swung the Ultima Weapon to his side and had an angry yet happy look, trying to mock Riku. [B]"Well well well... giving up already?"[/B] Riku chuckled and stood ready once again, going to unleash an attack. [B]"You can try to block all of my attacks, Sora-chan,"[/B] he replied, [B]"...but even you, the Wielder of the Keyblade, should know that all blockings result to failure..."[/B] And then... he started sprinting forward, his weapons ready and his glasses shining from the bright rays of the sun. [B]"Hah!! I didn't know you'd become so dense as to think that leaving your guard open was a good move!"[/B] Sora stood still and got into his stance once again, readying to parry Riku's move. Out of nowhere, Riku grunted and jumped high into the air, causing Sora to look up dumbfoundedly. Suddenly, Riku then spun around and darted towards Sora, fast like a arrow. He lifted Soul Eater and loudly yelled, [B]"Aerial Sweep!!"[/B] When Sora was in his reach, he started unleashing strong combos, his sword going left and right and yelling out battle cries. Sora tried to block them all, but at the last attack, he was hit, causing him to sway and open his guard. Riku landed in the golden sand, not wanting to let this moment go to waste and swang Way to Dawn upward harshly, yelling, [B]"Freedom!"[/B] His blow had landed a critical hit and had caused Sora to fly upwards, mildly dazed. Riku then kneeled down and jumped over and above Sora, spinning to where he could see him and stood in the air, pointing both Keyblade's that were shining at the tip with blue and black energy. As soon as the gravity pulled them back down, the energy had formed into a huge ball, ready to strike. The silver-haired teen was struggling to keep it steady, finally yelling, [B]"Freedom's Limit!"[/B] and unleashing the ball, causing both him and his weapons recoiling higher in the air. Sora gasped as he finally saw the ball and tried to guard himself with his blades. The ball had hit him right in the center of his guard and sent him flying back towards the ground. He fell faster and faster... finally landing on the ground and landing with a loud crash, sand flittering around in the air and shrouding the young teen. Riku then teleported to a nearby coconut tree and landed gracefully on it, his right hand on his hip and his other having Soul Eater lay on his shoulder. He looked down at the sand fog and scoffed happily. [B]"Now you know how strong my heart is....."[/B] [CENTER]_______________ OoC: Sorry it's so long... I got carried away cause I luff fighting scenes. n.n;[/CENTER][/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[CENTER][COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma][B]Name:[/B] Riku [B]Age:[/B] 17 [B]Side:[/B] Light (Though he's still worried that he'll change once again to the side of Darkness.) [B]Story:[/B] It has been a bit over two years ago when the three friends had come back to the Destiny Islands from their long adventure. But even though his sense of maturity hasn't changed.... his heart and sense of justice has grown even more stronger than what it used to be. Ever since he finally changed back from the character known as Ansem to his regular self, he's made a silent oath that he would never be swayed by the darkness again... not without a fight. But recently, he's been wondering about this feeling of being free that's deep inside his heart.... will it come true? .... Or maybe lead him into a deeper destruction? [B]Personality: [/B] Riku hasn't changed that much; he's still the calm and cool person that he once was, acting like the grown-up towards Sora and Kairi. People who're around him and usually talk to him agree that he's a bit more happy than he was before... and maybe a little more handsome. He's acted much more mature and is a little bit more at ease than he was before. No matter what, even if it means sacrificing his whole self to the darkness once again, he'll protect his friends. [B]Weapon:[/B] [URL=http://img145.imageshack.us/img145/4836/waytodawn28riku27skeyblade29qp5.jpg]Way To Dawn[/URL] [B]Magic/Ablities:[/B] [U][I]Counter Attack-[/I] [/U] Attacked at the right time, Riku deflects any attack that tries to hit him and strikes back at the opponent with a five hit combo. [Counter> Parry> Shadow of Darkness] [U][I]Aerial Sweep- [/I][/U] Riku sprints towards the opponent and swings his Keyblade to send them flying and unleashes a deadly combo of attacks, ending it with a energy attack that sends them flying back to the ground. [Aerial Sweep> Freedom> Freedom's Limit] [U][I]Cura-[/I][/U] Restores half HP to anyone.
