    "Riku:*smiles* ...No. It's the road to dawn."<br />
    <br />
    <br />
    <br />
    Riku's story begins a number of years before the<br />
    night of the Heartless invasion on Destiny Islands.<br />
    On an earlier night, there is a meteor shower and<br />
    a mysterious girl appears on the islands. Apparently,<br />
    Kairi is from another, far off world, and is now stuck<br />
    on the Destiny Islands, with no way to return to<br />
    her home. In an Ansem report, this world is revealed<br />
    to be Radiant Garden. The two and Sora, another<br />
    resident of the Isles, quickly forge a powerful friendship.<br />
    Soon after Kairi's arrival, Riku and Sora go to the secret<br />
    place, a small cave that they frequently explored.<br />
    Sora finds it fascinating, but soon decides to take his<br />
    leave. Before leaving, Riku catches sight of an enigmatic<br />
    door. From this day on Riku became obsessed with<br />
    finding out what lies beyond the door, wondering if<br />
    it could perhaps be a passageway to another world,<br />
    such as Kairi's.<br />

    "Giving up already? C'mon Sora, I thought you were stronger than that."
    <br />
    <br />
    Riku appears as a cool and collected 15-year-old.<br />
    He and his best friends Sora and Kairi live on the<br />
    Destiny Islands. The three spend their days<br />
    constructing a raft and gathering supplies, so that<br />
    they might one day set out and search for other<br />
    worlds. He and Sora share a fierce but good natured<br />
    rivalry, competing over who is stronger in battle,<br />
    among other things. Despite the fact that their<br />
    arguments are of good intention, Riku is known to<br />
    irritate Sora by being a bit of a sore loser and<br />
    (in the original Kingdom Hearts Manga: volume 1)<br />
    very pushy involving his fight over Kairi, shown<br />
    when he tells Sora that, if the latter does not<br />
    share a paopu fruit with Kairi soon, he will.<br />
    All three of them, as well as the other children<br />
    that live on the islands, spend most of their time<br />
    on the smallest island, acting as their own personal<br />
    playground.However, things take a drastic turn<br />
    on the night before their journey. Riku, likely<br />
    unable to leave the islands without knowing the<br />
    truth, opens the door in the secret place<br />
    (something he saw while very young, but was<br />
    perhaps too overwhelmed to open it just then)<br />
    and the Heartless, beings of darkness, invade<br />
    the islands, seeking out the world's heart. Both<br />
    afraid that a storm would destroy the raft, Kairi<br />
    and Sora set out for the island. Sora finds Riku<br />
    first. However, while Sora is concerned for his<br />
    friend's safety, Riku is only obsessed with<br />
    finally escaping the island. Darkness surrounds<br />
    the two, and Riku disappears into it, while<br />
    Sora gains the Keyblade.<br />

    I was starting to worry you guys weren't ever gonna catch on.<br />
    Sora never did pick the brightest friends."
    <br />
    <br />
    iku awakes in the lowest basement of Castle<br />
    Oblivion, being led there by his heart resonating<br />
    with Sora, who also happens to be in Castle<br />
    Oblivion, though on the ground floor. A dark<br />
    card and a disembodied voice present themselves.<br />
    The Voice offers Riku the chance to sleep<br />
    and forget his troubles as well as the light,<br />
    or take the card and take the first steps<br />
    toward the truth. Riku takes the card confidently.<br />
    Riku arrives in none other than Hollow<br />
    Bastion, though only a version of it crafted<br />
    from his memories. However, though Hollow<br />
    Bastion is the same as he remembered it,<br />
    he is unable to find anyone. All the while<br />
    he searches, the Voice speaks to and<br />
    mocks the young teenager.At long last,<br />
    Riku meets someone: Maleficent.<br />
    Maleficent taunts him and his refusal of<br />
    the darkness, but Riku fights Maleficent,<br />
    hoping to prove that he is above the darkness.<br />
    He is victorious.Riku leaves Hollow Bastion,<br />
    only to see the true form of Castle Oblivion.<br />
    The Voice again comes to Riku, but this<br />
    time reveals himself to be Xehanort's<br />
    Heartless, who wants to take over Riku<br />
    again. However, though Xehanort's Heartless<br />
    is powerful, King Mickey comes to aid<br />
    Riku with his light. Riku then manages<br />
    to fend off Xehanort's Heartless for the<br />
    time being. But before he leaves, the<br />
    Heartless leaves Riku with some world<br />
    cards and the ability to wield his inner<br />
    darkness as a weapon.<br />

    "You reek of Darkness. Even the light can't block the smell."
    <br />
    <br />
    He allies himself with DiZ, as they have a common<br />
    goal: to help Sora awaken (though Riku finds his<br />
    memories of Sora fading, being a side-effect of Naminé's<br />
    toying with Sora's memories). DiZ asks Riku to<br />
    kidnap Roxas, the Nobody of Sora, who has been<br />
    having trouble regaining his memories. If he and<br />
    Roxas join, Sora should be able to reawaken.<br />
    Riku enters the Realm of Darkness, and corners<br />
    Roxas in the World That Never Was, they seem<br />
    to stalemate. Riku then realizes if he is to win in<br />
    the Realm of Darkness, he must submerse himself<br />
    in the same darkness. As a result, Riku unleashed<br />
    his darkness, taking on the form of Xehanort's<br />
    Heartless as a side effect. Riku easily defeated<br />
    Roxas, and returns him to DiZ's base underneath<br />
    the abandoned mansion in Twilight Town, introducing<br />
    himself as "Ansem".Roxas' memory is erased<br />
    by DiZ and he is placed into a Virtual Twilight<br />
    Town, to live out his days until the time comes<br />
    for him to meet Sora. Meanwhile, Riku watches<br />
    over Roxas, periodically entering the town in<br />
    order to keep Roxas ignorant to the truth, including<br />
    keeping Naminé from saying anything important<br />
    to Roxas. He also takes some keepsakes of<br />
    Roxas' during some of his visits. With all these<br />
    deeds done, Riku finally demands to know<br />
    what DiZ's true objective is. Upon hearing<br />
    that it is merely revenge, Riku clinches his fist in<br />
    shock and disgust. Eventually, when the time comes<br />
    for Roxas, Riku makes sure to prevent the<br />
    Nobodies from flooding the town. Soon, the goal<br />
    Riku had been searching for is finally reached:<br />
    Roxas joins with Sora. Though DiZ ordered him<br />
    to eliminate Naminé, Riku wanted no part in<br />
    DiZ's prejudice revenge and handed her to<br />
    the now-renegade Axel of Organization XIII<br />
    before leaving DiZ.<br />
