It was a full five minutes before she managed to ask, "He's not going
to live much longer, is he?"

The others set their utensils down, and awaited the King's reply.

"There's no real way of knowing what will happen when the time comes,"
King Mickey told her. "But I'm afraid you're probably right in
thinking that his current body is dying."

Riku's mother sat there, silently for a moment, then she got to her
feet and walked into her son's room. From within, she could hear his
labored breathing. Her heart was troubled greatly by this and she
went inside.

Riku woke as soon as his mother sat on the bed. "Is it morning?"
he asked.

"No, dear," she told him. "You've only been asleep for half an hour.
The others haven't even finished eating yet."

"I'm starting to feel a little better," Riku told her. "Really."

"Labored breathing doesn't equall better in my book."

"I snore."

"That wasn't snoring."

Riku's mother put her hand on her son's forehead and frowned. "Your
skin is cooler than it should be. Maybe I should sit here with you for
a bit."

"Nonsense," Riku refused, "I just cooled off a little when my body
became accustomed to Darkness. That's all. You go finish your supper.
We can talk more in the morning. We'll both be recovered by then."

"Riku..."

"Good night, mom," Riku yawned as he rolled over and went to sleep.

His mother watched him for much of the night, until weariness got the
better of her. Then, she went to her room and got into bed.

An hour before the sun rose, Riku's breathing stopped.
