(no subject)
Characters: Riku [AU3], OPEN
Setting: Room 1-14, hallways, various rooms throughout the tower (your pick), and finally the graveyard (floor 48)
Format: Action please.
Summary: Riku wakes up to discover his little 'prize' from the event. Later, he stumbles upon an unfortunate new room and makes an unpleasant discovery.
Warnings: FEELINGS. Also, the graveyard room and all its implications.
Room 1-14;
[How many times had he died now? Two, three times?
At this rate, he'd lost track. But after spending weeks collecting candy and running around in a tacky suit, returning to his good, old self and familiar clothes came as a relief. Getting a rude awakening from a technicolor dragon? ...Not so much.
Those passing room 1-14 may hear an abrupt scream coming from the room. Should their curiosity get the best of them, they'll find Riku pinned to his bed by the big, goofy Spirit.
Riku eyes the strange creature, half tempted to call for his Keyblade, but the dragon, for whatever reason, just blinks at him and nudges him with its head. Oh yeah, it's at least six or seven feet long, with a clubbed tail. If it weren't so bright, it'd probably pass as one of the monsters easily.
But, once the initial shock wears off, Riku groans and pushes the dragon to the side, eying a note one the floor.
"Awww, too bad. But you tried hard and did a lot of work anyway, so here's a consolation prize!
♥Ruana
...It figures.]
Hallway and throughout the tower;
[It seems that no matter where Riku goes, that dragon scurries close behind, stopping once or twice to scratch itself like an oversized cat. Occasionally, Riku tries to zip ahead of it and get some time alone, but it doesn't take long for the dragon to screech and zip right after him.
The aquarium, the cafeteria... No matter where he turns, that oversized lizard's hot on his trail. Care to point and laugh? Mistake it for a vicious monster? The sky's the limit!]
Graveyard;
[Later on, however, the silly dragon shenanigans come to a grinding halt. After convincing his new pet to hang back in the room for a bit, Riku's managed to do a little exploring on his own, to clear the air.
What he didn't expect to find was a spooky graveyard lined with stones bearing familiar names.
Wincing, he creeps deeper into the room, skimming stone after stone.
Some names appear completely foreign to him. He passes them with a raised eyebrow and a shrug, pressing on. Some, on the other hand, stick out a fair bit more. Vanitas, for one. Is this some kind of trick from the admins?
But the names keep piling up. Eraqus, Aqua, Roxas... another Roxas, and it only gets worse from there. The name "Donald Duck" sends him stumbling back, rubbing at his eyes. But the name remains.
It has to be a trick. Since when was Donald even in the tower? Maybe... maybe Jason decided to toy with people. Throw in some familiar names, and--
In the corner of his eye, he catches another familiar name. Twice. At that moment, he freezes. With deep breaths, he turns, a lump forming in his throat.
Kairi...
Twice, just like with Roxas. Riku falls down to his knees.]
No! This... it can't be--
[But when was the last time he saw either Kairi? Or Aqua, Eraqus... any of them?
It had to be a trick. But... what if it wasn't?
No matter how hard he tries, he can't look away. His eyes remain fixed on the stones, his body petrified with fear.]

8D Yay! Affection rank up?
[Does that mean that the dragon approves? He'd never heard of this before.]
Affection rank up ;D
...Strangest dragon ever.]
And here I thought I'd seen everything in this place.
