The edge of the Papou tree turned black, as though a horrible disease had infested it. However, it was nothing special, just Hansy walking out of a dark portal and onto the island. He waited only a moment, listening to the constant waving of the tides, the swish of leaves in the wind, and the salty air which surrounded the Destiny Islands.
"Yes, they were here..." he said to himself.
He was looking for those who had held the keyblades. He remembered seeing two, when he'd accidentaly opened the door to the world. After having learned more about keyblades, he couldn't help being curious, and wanted to know more. Hansy didn't care who he found, as long as they wielded a keyblade. He stepped of the bridge leading to the Island, looking from side to side, no one was there, but he moved, why shouldn't others. Not even close to giving up, the small boy continued to glide across the ground in his black cloak like a shadow.

Riku layed lazily on the edge of the dock, overlooking the water. He wasn't ready to leave yet. He enjoyed the break from everything, the constant sound of the waves he loved so much. The breeze blowing his silver hair all over the place. It reminded him...and memories were precious things, as he had learned.
As he was enojying himself, he saw a strange sight out of the corner of his eye. A black cloak coming across the beach. Riku watched it carefully as it came closer and closer. Slowly he brought himself up. He had a strange feeling about the person, so he kept his wits about him.
"Who's that?" He called across the beach.

Hansy continued to walk, finally turning slightly as Riku called out to him. Hmm, I think he is one of them He began walking again, now in Riku's direction. Not answering his question. He couldn't say his name, or well, he could, but it wouldn't matter. He couldn't say his objective, or it might ruin it. So he stayed silent, before Riku's features finally became clear, and Hansy stopped, about 20 feet away from him. Hood draped across his face, the robe fully zipped up, sleeves shrouding his hands. All that could really be guessed was Hansy was young, due to his still small stature. He stood, looking over Riku. Hansy's blindfolded eyes examined every angle of him, their movements masked by the hood he wore.

Riku watched the hooded figured as he stopped a little ways away. Riku jumped to his feet and walked onto the beach, getting closed to the person. He looked him over casually and laughed a little.
"You know, those cloaks are going out of style fast. I'd find something new."
Riku didn't know if he was bad or good or whatever. But he did know that hooded figured usually equaled bad news for him and everyone else on his side. Riku could feel his keyblade tingling to come out, but he kept it back. Not yet was what he thought to himself.

"They're nice when it rains..." Hansy said dully. Not really caring whether Riku found his attire trendy or not. He just wanted to see first hand what these keyblade wielders are capable of. He was suspicious at first, but he could tell just by being next to Riku he didn't have to ask.
Hansy flipped the bottom edge of his cloak to the side a bit, it flapping as he did so. Grabbing a sword at his waist, he pulled it out. A simple katana, nothing more, but effective nonetheless in battle. "Draw, keyblade wielder..." Hansy said quietly, almost sadly. Before jumping towards Riku in a horizontal slash.

Riku was stunned by the sudden change of pace, but drew his keyblade anyway. He threw a block and smashed the person's sword to the side. He jumped back a little to avoid another quick attack.
"If you want a fight, then you're gonna get one." Riku said calmly, but sternly. Riku ran at the cloaked figure and slashed downwards. He jumped back and shot his Dark Aura in the person's direction. With that, he dissapeared and reappeared behind him about ready to strike again.

Hansy simply moved to the side to avoid the downward slash. The Dark Aura however was a different story. He jumped high into the air, flipping in complex motions to dodge the balls of energy. When Riku appeared behind him Hansy was struck aghast, barely blocking and being sent back and to the ground as he did so.
Hansy got back up, brushing himself off. He's strong... Hansy thought, before slicing horizontaly ahead of him, shooting a blade of wind at Riku, before jumping into the air and attacking in a flipping vertical slash.

The blades of wind whipped by Riku as he side stepped. Even though he got out of the way, it scratched his arm. Seeing that the person was coming down with a slash, Riku held up his keyblade in a block. With a clash, Riku quickly spun around and slashed to the stomach area.
Taking his momentum, he stabbed his keyblade into the ground and jumped onto the person's chest. He quickly kicked upwards at the chin hoping to throw him over.

Riku's keyblade cut Hansy slightly, reaching just a bit through his skin. Hansy stumbled a bit as this happened, and was therefore unable to dodge Riku's kick to his chest, nor the followup to his chin which sent him flying into the air. After going up about 10 feet, Hansy flipped, wipping a bit of blood of his chin before spinning his sword in his hand till he was grabbing it backwards. The blade now pointing towards his back, he then moved it to his back, before pointing his palm at Riku, and shooting out a large black Graviva.
Trying to use this as both a means to distract Riku and to hurt him, Hansy then brought the hand he held his sword in up next to his face, leaving the blade running along past his elbow before again pointing down at Riku. From this position, he shot from the sky, intending to use a thrusting attack from above.

The gravira attack left Riku momentarily paralyzed. It was damaging, and left him open to the thrust attack. He tried to move back a little, but was blown back by the force of it. He rolled across the beach someways and layed on the ground. Taking in a deep breath, he got to his feet. He twirled his keyblade in his hand and held out his other, similar to what the person had just done. With that, he created a dark portal and ran into it.
He jumped out directly in front of the person and hacked at him diagnolly. As he did this, he created a dark shield behind him to keep him in place. This gave Riku the opportunity to dish out a number of combos before finally blowing back the person. Riku was expecting a counter, however.

Hansy was cut hard by the initial diagonall attack, he coughed a bit, some blood spurting out of his mouth and falling across his pitch black robe. This disrupted the rest of his blocking, and while he did move his arm and spin his sword around blocking a good amount of the hits, some still knicked him, and he was thrown a good wats back from the final one which blew him away. He spun through the air horizontaly, before plunging his sword into the ground to stop himself. The continuing force blew his hood back for a moment, finally revealing his young face, before it snapped back across his head.
Hansy floated in the air for a moment, held up by his grip on his sword, gazing at Riku. He's way better than I thought he concluded, and replanted his feet. He pulled the sword from the ground, and started it spinning like a top on his palm, a blue and black flow of energy going around it as Hansy raised his hand high into the air. Finally gripping the blade, he slashed down, shooting a blue, shadowy crescent beam tearing through the ground at Riku.

Riku's eyes widened at the face of the fighter... Just a kid...? Before he had time to jump back into the attack, he saw the blue beam rushing at him. There was no time to retaliate, so he braced himself. The beam crashed into his body and sent him flying over the bridge that lead to his favorite spot. He hit the ground hard and coughed furiously, trying to regain air. Coming up to his feet, he felt anger coursing through him. He could feel his darkness rising up, and setting his adreneline on fire.
Whoever this kid was, and why ever he was fighting him was going to be answered. Soon. Riku jolted forward like a bullet and stuck his keyblade into the ground a couple feet away from the boy. With swift quick movements, he turned the keyblade in the ground. A loud unlocking noise could be heard, and darkness began to seep out of the wound in the ground. It floated under Riku for a moment, then appeared under the boy. It sucked both of them under.
In the darkness, Riku let out a flurry of attacks. A lot of them probably wouldn't hit, but the sheer force of one was enough. This used all of his darkness, and after this attack he would be nearly powerless. After his furious bout of speedy attacks, they were both blown back onto the surface. Riku hit the ground, gasping for air, with his eyes wide and grey.

Pulling Hansy into darkness probably wasn't the best move on Riku's part. Fighting him inside of it could only prove to be suicide in most situations. However, it wasn't a normal situation, Riku could also use to dark to his advantage, which he proved in their short encounter beyond the light. Their blades clashed numerous times, their bodies dashing in every direction as they had a completely melee skirmish in the dark abyss Riku had summoned. Hansy moved seamlessly inside of the empty chasm.
Finally, Hansy's suprise gave Riku the edge. Near the end of the attack, he couldn't help his mind wandering for a moment, as Riku first knocked the sword from his hand, he stumbled back, thinking How on earth, thats impossible, where are we.. he wondered. Forgeting the battle at a crucial moment, when Riku did finally manage to hit him in a devastating strike, much more powerfull than the small couple of hits he'd gotten before.
Riku hit the ground. Hansy did not, or at least, not immediately. Surrounded still in the darkness that had engulfed the two of them, Hansy went flying back, across the bridge, and hitting the stone rockface above the shack on the islands. He paused there for a moment, before finally falling, the darkness receding into his body as it should, and quickly at that. He hit the shack roof with a pound, before rolling a few times and plopping of the edge and onto the ground.

Riku breathed deeply, in and out continuously. He could hardly move. It seemed as if he had woken up with all of his limbs asleep. It would take some time until he could bring himself up again. He had hoped that his attack worked on the mysterious person, or he was toast. Alls he could do now was think.
Who is this guy? Obviously darkness isn't new to him...
He couldn't hear the opponent, but then again, he couldn't hear him when he saw him fighting. His arms started to regain feeling enough so he could get on his elbows and look around. If he had to, he could retreat into darkness to heal...but he wasn't sure about the risk of dying trying to muster the energy to use it.

Hansy had pretty much been temporarily incapacitated by the force of the attack, and the overload of darkness injured him slightly as well. The indent of dark he had left in the stone wall finally receded as his sword, which he had dropped, shot out and landed sticking in the ground a few feet from Hansy. Speaking of Hansy, he was finally regaining his senses, and opened his eyes. Wondering where he was for a moment. It seemed his memories were as fragile as ever, and this insane attack had discombobulated them.
He looked to see Riku lying on the ground on the small island with a tree, trying to get up, when in pieces, the scene rushed back to him. Hansy moved to get up and finish him, when he found he couldn't lift a finger. As he struggled to attain motion, his body just shoot slightly where he tried, but he was, for the most part, stuck. That attack, how powerfull, how did he do that? Hansy wondered.
