World of Hearts: Linked as One (Book 1)

0-2: Premonition

Riku reached Shibuya Square and got over to where Xehanort was.

"Well, you're fast," Xehanort said.

"Well, I had to get here first before everyone else got here. Ventus, Terra, and Aqua are taking their time, but they'll be a minute late. They have King Mickey with them," Riku said. "As for Kairi, Lea, Roxas, Namine, and Xion? I'm hoping they get here right on time. Cloud's too busy to make it and so are Tifa and Squall. Aerith is selling flowers, so she won't make it. Yuffie? Oh, she'll make it. Cid is working his ass off on the Highwind as usual. Tidus and Wakka are on a mission."

"So for now, it's only us two then?" Xehanort asked.

"Yeah..." Riku said.

He sighed. He wished things were in better circumstances. Just being with Young Xehanort alone was unsettling. He still wasn't getting used to having Xehanort as an ally after all the things he had done.

"It's ironic, isn't it?" Riku asked. "You almost brought our world to ruin and now here we are as allies, not enemies, trying to protect this world."

"I don't see anything ironic about it," Xehanort said.

"You don't?"

"We're not friends, Riku," Xehanort said coldly. "And as of right now, we're not enemies anymore. The only reason we have an alliance right now is that you and I agree on one thing."

Xehanort glares coldly at Riku.

"We both have a common enemy and nothing more," Xehanort said. "We both may have different reasons for wanting him to be stopped, but that matters little to the end goal."

The two boys got to Shibuya and walked out of the train.

"Well, here we are," Yoh said. "Now it's time to meet your girlfriend."

Kizuna blushed and took a deep breath.

"Hey," Yoh said. "Everything will work out."

"So you say..." Kizuna said.

The two boys made their way up to the exit.

Upon leaving, the two boys were greeted with the sight of a group of girls that just looked at them. The one with black hair and purple eyes was giving Kizuna a cold stare.

"Um... is one of you Madoka Kaname?" Kizuna nervously asked.

"Hey Madoka, he's talking about you," The girl with the blue hair sounded off.

The girl with the pink twin-tails blushed as the redhead in the group was laughing.

"Ok so uh... I'm just gonna... get something... for my fiancé... have fun on your date," Yoh said, walking off, leaving Kizuna behind.

Kizuna looked shocked as Yoh just walked off.

"Um..."

He looked to the pinkette, whom he assumed was Madoka Kaname, the girl he was to meet at Shibuya. He looked at her, studying her appearance so he can remember what she looks like.

"The name's Madoka Kaname..." The girl said. "Kizuna Daichi, right?"

"Y-Yeah... that's me..." Kizuna said.

He saw a ring on her right finger. Kizuna looked nervous.

"Uh... that ring..." Kizuna said, pointing to said ring. "Who gave you that ring?"

"Huh?" Madoka looked at her ring finger before looking at him.

"O-Oh this?" Madoka asked. "This is a..."
