Sora sat up straight and wiped away his tears. The 'Nexus' deck of cards was laying on his bed and for some reason, he just couldn't take his eyes off it. Well, if he and Rui couldn't figure the game out together because Rui had to study, he could at least figure out the rules on his own. Rui was much smarter than he was anyways, so it would take Sora a lot more time to understand how to play the game. He took a deep breath before taking the little box with the deck of cards in his hand. He took out the paper with the rules written on it, but those things really didn't interest him. He wasn't used to studying or reading. Sora always told himself that he just had too much energy for it, but deep down he truly believed that he was too stupid. Before trying to understand what kind of game it was, he threw away the paper with the rules on it and looked at the cards that were in the box. One of the cards had a little boy on it. His lips formed a soft smile and the word [color=CornflowerBlue]'cute'[/color] appear in his mind, but then he saw the little fellow moving inside of the card. He literally fell off of his bed out of surprise. [color=springgreen]"Ahww... That really hurt... Okay no, it didn't hurt one bit."[/color] Sora stood up from the floor, but suddenly noticed that he wasn't in his own bedroom anymore. For some reason, he was in the living room. Weird... He didn't remember ever going downstairs. He looked at the direction the unfamiliar voice was coming from and saw the little fellow from before. A guy with white hair, yellow eyes, clothed in green and surrounded by leaves.

Nice to meet you!"[/color] Wolf put out his hand, but Sora didn't want to shake it, so Wolf put his hand away again. [color=cornflowerblue]"Why the hell are we in the living room? How did we came here? When? Why aren't my parents here? They are supposed to be here."[/color] Wolf looked around. [color=springgreen]"Oh, so this is what your living room looks like? It looks really nice! But to answer your question, we're not in the real living room, but the living room from your memories."[/color] Sora wanted to make a big deal out of what Wolf said and he wanted to act out really confused, but he already had seen a guy move in a card, so he could handle it. [color=cornflowerblue]"So why are we in my memories?"[/color] Wolf laughed. [color=springgreen]"You're a hard guy to break, huh. Well, you are chosen to be my Commander, which means that soon five of your most precious memories will sadly go away."[/color] Wolf opened his hand and seven coins were to be seen. [color=springgreen]"Two of the coins will remain gold, the others will go black and if they do, you forget. You are supposed to play Nexus with the other chosen ones. If you win, you get a memory back. If you lose, you lose one of the remaining memories."[/color] Sora nodded silently and looked like he was thinking, although he wasn't the smartest guy around. [color=cornflowerblue]"And what else do I get when I win, except for my memories back? In the films, there is always a price to win in those sort of games. There is a prize, right?"[/color] Wolf nodded. [color=springgreen]"Of course there is. I fulfill one wish. Any wish."[/color] Sora's mouth literally fell open out of surprise. [color=cornflowerblue]"So I can wish for more time with my sister? To be close with her like we were when we were little?"[/color] Wolf started to laugh. [color=springgreen]"That's fairly easy one, yes."[/color] Sora smiled. [color=cornflowerblue]"Alright. Not like I have much of a choice, but I accept."[/color] Wolf smiled back at Sora, but then Sora heard his own voice from the couch. He saw a little Sora sitting in the couch with tears running down his cheeks and a little Rui standing in front of him. He could make out some of his own words, which were [color=cornflowerblue]'they were mean'[/color]. However, he couldn't understand anything his sister said to him. Who was mean? People from school? No... He was pretty popular at school. So who? [color=cornflowerblue]"This is one of the memories that is going to disappear, right?"[/color] Wolf smiled at Sora with a hint of pity. [color=springgreen]"Yes."[/color] Losing his memories was both emotionally and physically more painful than he thought would be. Especially since most of the memories had his sister Rui in them. [color=springgreen]"Are you alright, Commander?"[/color] Wolf seemed really worried about Sora, but was he really? [color=cornflowerblue]"Y-yeah, I-I am. Not one aspect of this game is in your control, right?"[/color] Wolf shook his head no. [color=cornflowerblue]"Alright. Then let's get my memories back and fulfill my wish."[/color] Wolf smiled and after a couple of physically painful seconds, they were back in Sora's bedroom and Wolf was back inside of his card. [color=cornflowerblue]"By the way, you can call me Sora."[/color] He said without even looking at Wolf, whose card was in his hand. He suddenly rushed to Rui's bedroom. [color=cornflowerblue]"Rui, don't open..."[/color] He didn't finish his sentence with the words [color=cornflowerblue]'the box'[/color], when he saw the Avatar card in Rui's hand. [color=cornflowerblue]"You too..."[/color]
