Title: Fall
Friendship: Sora&Riku&Kairi
Summary: He's afraid of what will happen when he falls. Written for prompt #27 Fear @ kingdom100
Disclaimer: I don't own Kingdom Hearts.



He's the keyblade master, the savior for all of the worlds-- the only one who can defeat the Heartless. He can't stumble, can't mess up-- it's not like when he was a child on the islands, losing only his pride to Riku, because, this time, is he does, a whole world is at stake, and more soon after. It's not like in the video games either, where he can just push 'continue' and then go on as if nothing had ever happened.

Besides, he was never any good at video games.

If he stumbles, falls, the Heartless win. Maleficent wins. Xemnas wins. Whomever it is, they win, and the worlds die. He would let the worlds down.

He would let Kairi and Riku down.

But when he finally does stumble, then fall, it isn't like what he pictured, what he feared.

The worlds aren't destroyed, his friends are not lost. Instead--

They're right there besides him, ready to pick him up again.
