In a cataclysm known as the Nightfall, the worlds were almost completely destroyed by a harrowing surge of darkness.
In the shadows of the ensuing chaos a new group has taken shape. Led by an Aegyl named Kalos, the 11th Hour touts an esoteric knowledge of how to combat the darkness and restore the worlds. They might be the worlds’ best chance at survival; but nobody really knows enough about them to confirm or deny their claims.
On the brink of collapse, the universe holds its breath in anticipation. Of restoration? Of destruction? It is up to individuals like yourself to decide.

As Yuffie heard the other boy speak (who had somehow snuck in unnoticed to her), she said, "Yeah, we've met Sora quite a bit. And you..." She was then interrupted by Leon entering and talking. She grinned as she saw him, happy to see he was alright. "Well hey there, Squall. You're just in time to have a little talk." Then, to the table, she said, "Tea, please." and was pleased to see it appear. Sipping it, she looked at the boy and said, "Care to join us? A friend of Sora's is a friend of ours."
Then, as an afterthought, Yuffie called to Cloud, "What's the hurry? See Sephiroth around, or you just avoiding us? Stay a while, be neighborly." With a small giggle, she sipped her tea again and set it down.
(( If Mickey can hold off until Merlin posts, and then at least one more round of everyone posting, I think that'd be best. ;]
Where be Xepte?
*edit* Sorry, but I'm going to just skip Merlin. And btw, Riku closes the door here, but you can say that Cloud stepped back inside before he did so if you'd like. ))
Riku ignored the stoic blonde that pushed by him to get out the door, instead focusing on the young ninja addressing him.
"Yeah, we've met Sora quite a bit. And you..."
But even her words were cut off by another arrival. Riku raised an eyebrow but otherwise ignored this man as well. The two in the house seemed to accept his presence. And if they did, he must trust him as well, or else he may never figure out what was going on.
The silver-haired teen stepped across the threshold and lightly closed the door behind him. Before anyone could say another word, and before he could back out of the decision, Riku summoned the Way to Dawn. He held it out for them to see.
"I am Riku, a keyblader. I'm one of Sora's friends as well," he said.
He had to trust them.
"I just met a Organization XIII member and his heartless. Can any of you tell me what the hell is going on?"
Yuffie gave Riku a confused look as she mentioned meeting an Organization member and a Heartless. "I'm afraid that I'm not aware of that. But, beside the point, it's good to meet a friend of Sora's. I'm Yuffie, and this is Merlin and Leon. Cloud is the one who just left." Looking at the Keyblade, she noticed teh colors and then the keychain, which was the Heartless symbol. "Interesting Keyblade..." she said, curious as to why it would have that symbol for a Keychain.
"Anyways, what brings you here to Radiant Garden?" seh asked, truly curious.
As Cloud was about to leave he heard the newcomer mention that he was a Keyblade wielder and that he was a friend of Sora's, maybe this was the guy he was searching for at that time Cloud wondered if they had met again. The blonde noticed that Riku looked exactly like the person he had seen while out fighting heartless with Leon, except he was wearing a very different attire. There must be a connection between them Cloud thought as Leon arrived speak of the devil he should remind him about this.
Cloud approached Leon and said to him "Hey...do you think this guy looks familiar?" he spoke in a quiet tone of voice so only Leon could hear him though he normally spoke quietly anyway. He didn't want to cause more problems for them, unless Leon wanted to discuss it but otherwise he would keep it between him and the Gunblader.
Leon listened to Riku and was about to say something when Yuffie spoke up. Then, as soon as she finished, Cloud came back in and asked Leon if Riku looked familiar. "No," he whispered to Cloud, "but Sora talked about him a lot, and he's got a Keyblade." He turned back to the rest of the group. "Riku, the Organization is back, and they've somehow brought their heartless counterparts with them. They've been fairly inactive so far, but I get the feeling it won't stay that way." He walked over to the table where Yuffie had been sitting and sat down. "But what brings you here?"
(( No matter, the more quickly coming the posts, the quicker we can move on. ;] ))
Riku's eyes narrowed as the man - Leon - confirmed what he already knew to be true. He aqua gaze was trained on the brunette as he went to sit beside the woman, Yuffie, pondering the fact that the RGRUC had already heard of him from Sora. Then again, the same was true the other way around.
He didn't join them at the table. He decided, however, to start with the facts. "I'm here to figure some things out," he began coolly. "I was in Traverse Town when me and an Organization member called Zexion happened to bump into each other. His Heartless joined the joyous reunion soon later. I'm not sure of his name.
"The point is, Zexion died. I was in that castle. And I want to know why they're back. What have you heard? More importantly - have you heard from the King?"
Cloud raised an eyebrow at Leon when the gunblader claimed that he had not seen someone like Riku before, though he didn't blame him the man dissapeared before they could engage him he let out a dissapointed sigh but quickly turned his attention to Riku, after all he was a Keyblade Wielder he was sure he could trust him.
He listened to what Riku had to say and it seemed that he was just as confused as they were, so far he knew that nobody had figured out how the Organisation returned..He wasn't even sure that Merlin knew and the wizard knew a lot of things but this wasn't one of them.
Cloud shook his head in response to Riku's questions he wished he knew the answer, maybe it was time he started looking according to the silver haired teen the Organisation member Zexion had appeared in Traverse Town. Cloud figured if he wanted answers he would have to seek them out and that would mean visiting other worlds, that seemed a good way to start.
He folded his arms and lent his back against the wall while paying close attention to the conversation.
"Honestly, we don't know much about anything right now. There was a kid named Lea who got attacked by the Claymores, so I think he's a Heartless...and no, we haven't had contact with the king as far as I know." With a lean in her chair and a folding of her arms behind her head, she looked at Leon and said, "You heard anything about anything? Frankly, it's rather boring here in Radiant Garden."
((LAME. D: So, Mickey invade soon?))

Riku paused, and slowly straightened. The news of another possible member of powerful Heartless was interesting, and he stored the information in the back of his mind. Still, they knew little more than he did. He was back to square one.
What next? Go back, find Sora? Search for more answers on his own? Riku felt worn, empty, the lack of sleep and events of the past few days draining his strength and energy.
"Well, then. Sorry," he nodded briefly but politely to those in the room. "It was good to meet you." They were strong and, despite their stoic demeanor, meant to help the Light. The assistance of the RGRUC would be needed in the future.
Riku turned and made his way to the door. The departure was abrupt, but he couldn't waste time.
(( Mickey will come soon. We'll have to put this thread on halt for a little bit, though. WD's going to undergo an update shortly after the Activity check - it may effect the outcome of this thread. ))

(( In another thread I mentioned that Riku went ahead and left. Most participants in this thread have gone MIA, but it has served a good purpose, and I say its complete. :] ))
