Characters: AU!Sora and YOU
Setting: Around the Tower
Format: Starting in commentspam, but I will shift
Summary: Kairi is missing, and not even his bouncy new pet can calm him down. He is angry and on a rampage.
Warnings: Violence is a big thing likely to happen.

[Kairi is missing. He's scoured the tower again and again, and his panic had begun to give way to rage. The Tower has taken her from him--the biggest positive in his life since childhood. Maybe it wasn't the same Kairi, maybe they were from different universes. But that doesn't matter. She's still gone, and now he's angry. And how does someone with a generally unhealthy way of dealing with things deal with anger? He gets destructive.

So he's currently walking around the tower, Keyblade out, looking for Kairi or something to break.]

Kairi's gone.

[Sorry, Terra. This isn't the Sora you know. there's probably a faint scent of Xehanort all around him, given prolonged contact!]

[He already figured as much -- too much Darkness in this Sora; more than the other Sora had by quite a bit.

The traces of Xehanort's darkness are harder to detect; he doesn't really deal in scents like Riku or Zexion. But those traces don't feel like they're part of Sora.

Thank goodness for small favors.

Pausing, and looking... almost like he gets it.] ... I'm sorry; I know how much it hurts to lose a loved one.

[Rage from grief... a dangerous place to be, but the presence of Sora's Keyblade now makes more sense.

The urge to break something must be pretty high.]

[Oh, it's very high. It's about ready to boil over. And Terra? You're beginning to look like a good target with that statement because it's hitting on a few other things.]

You can't possibly know what it's like to lose one of the only two people who've been there for you!

[It's a snap, and probably the boat load of abandonment issues combined with the pain talking. But yeah, he's not even stopping to consider that maybe someone could know his pain.]

[... Sora. You are now on the receiving end of a very hard look from Terra. There isn't anger there, only an expression that practically screams 'back off before you do something stupid'.

His words are blunt, meant to hopefully get Sora thinking again and listening instead of blindly lashing out in anger and grief.] It feels like a hole has been ripped inside of you, right? Something dark, ugly, and worst of all, empty. Because the person that should be here is gone, and it's not fair. So you'll tear the worlds apart to find them. Am I close?

[That hard look softens a little, and and he feels like he should elaborate.] When I was five, my birth parents were killed as our home burned around us. Fourteen years later, I had to watch the man that took me and raised me as his own get stabbed in the back by someone that he considered a brother to him, watch my home get ripped apart, and hear him threaten to kill the last two members of my family and nearly carry it out.

[He closes his eyes and takes a breath to steady himself, lest he become angry himself. When he opens his eyes again, his gaze falls right back on Sora.] I know it's easier to be angry and lash out at anyone that makes themselves a target, but that isn't going to help anyone. You won't feel better afterwards.

It won't bring your friend back, either. [Because it really has to be said.]

[...WELL. He wasn't expecting that. So here he is, standing quietly. Letting that shock show quite blatantly. And then he'll glare. Because see, Terra? He has it all figured out.]

Who knows? If I break enough people... Then maybe they'll bring her back as a reward.

[That sentence nets a bit of a frustrated sound from him. Sora, you can't out-glare him. It's just not done.] Are you even listening to yourself? Stop letting your emotions rule you and think! Hurting people won't make the people in charge suddenly decide to be generous to one person! If that worked, then wouldn't more people be trying it?

[Because seriously, if you go about trying to hurt people just because you're hurting? He'll have to stop you. And he doesn't want it to come to that.]

Who even knows if anyone's tried it? Might as well test it. And if it doesn't, then hey, at least someone feels as miserable as I do.

[This is how he deals with things, Terra. Blame his dad for encouraging it since he was young.]

[There's only silence from Terra's end for a good minute as Terra just stares at Sora, a look of ... sadness and disappointment on his face as he tries to think of a way to dissuade the boy from this course of action.

Eventually, he just sighs again, and levels an 'are you sure you want to do this?' look at him.] You're making a mistake. But if that's the way it's going to be...

[While his body language remains casual, he's standing squarely in your path if you want to move on.] If you want to try it, you'll have to get past me.

[Something in his tone says that he is not looking forward to this for whatever reason.]
