I hate you guys for making this one so hard on me. All the entries were lovely, and it took me at least an hour to decide because I kept changing my mind. This week's winner is:

prettywar's Hope

It was a very creative way to integrate the lyrics, and if anything reminded me intensely of Sora's upcoming problems in Chain of Memories. I think as a cheesy romantic, I'd like to believe that Riku really is out there, struggling to keep his hold on sanity and Sora.

However, since my decision really was so hard to make, I wanted to give recognition to a second and third place winners, so to speak. I hope it's not too unorthodox for a drabble community. There's no award for you two, but I thought it would be nice to support the other two drabbles that gave the first place winner such a run for its money.

Honorable Mention:

kacfrog's I'll Follow the Sound

moontear's Ocean Tide

Well, that wraps it up! The next challenge will be left up to

prettywar, who has totally earned it!
