[But it doesn't sound like Riku isn't willing to tell it. Finally, he glances over and back at Sakyou. He doesn't look angry, or even judgmental. The feelings in him are... that soft boy kind of concern.]
He almost took control of me again, but a friend helped keep him at bay. The King, Mickey. [Mickey Mouse. Don't question it.] He taught me that... you're never alone, even when you think you are. Your friends are always in your heart.
[He sounds so fucking earnest saying this, I'm sorry.]
I learned... it's okay to have a heart with light and darkness. You can use both. So I decided to face Ansem, to get him out of my heart for good. Someone helped me summon him, and I defeated him... using the strength I had--light and darkness. But... even then... I had to use the strength of the darkness to help Sora.
Doing it made me... look like Ansem. So I hid from Sora and everyone because I didn't want them to see me like that. What I had become. They were looking for me, but I didn't want them to find me.
