"Hm," Riku hummed at the thanks. He wasn't so sure he'd thanks him if she knew the events that transpired next, but as a member of the Organization, he didn't trust her enough to explain that.

He nodded slightly at the first question. "I'd've done better trying to talk to a mad rhino. He wasn't going to turn back. Angry didn't begin to describe the guy. He said he had to meet Sora because..." And suddenly Riku paused with an odd expression. "...He wanted to meet his other." However, he didn't sound so sure, like that wasn't quite right.

Riku's voice softened. "...If he wanted to meet Sora, why didn't I just take him? It'd've been easy. He was so angry..." There was another pause, and he reached up to hold the bridge of his nose. "What was he going to do? Why couldn't I just bring him? Why can't I...?" He glanced up to Xion. ...She's right.
