Author's Note: I know, I know! Why don't I focus on my stories now rather than writing one-shots? I've been hearing this song since I was in kindergarten or somewhere around there and I really loved it, which I still do. Most of the scenes that inspired me were from Kingdom Hearts 2 during the first stages where you play as Roxas. I'm just re-writing the scenes and making it my own way.

Warning: Don't read this story if you haven't play Kingdom Hearts 2. It'll be a spoiler, sorry. Some of the scenes from the games itself will be in here.
Stoopid Disclaimer: I don't own KH2, the song or Lene Marlin. I'm straight & she's a girl. xD

Prologue
I woke up and sat up straight. Another dream of him, again. I went to look at my calendar as I had always keep track of time. It was the last week of summer. School's almost coming. I also despise the fact that time flies so fast, especially when you're having fun. That's not the only thing that's bothering me lately.
It's also that I'm having these weird dreams, lately. Secondly, I've been meeting strange and interesting people the whole week. Those 'Nobodies' weren't interesting, they were annoying. The interesting person was… her.
(A/N: & this is where it starts getting good. xD)
I walked over to the 'Usual Spot' to meet up with the gang. As per normal, I was thinking hard and my hands were dug in my pockets. I was looking down when I was walking and when my head faced up, I hit the wall. I winced and rubbed my face. Ding! Dong! The town clock rang. I hurried over to my friends. Time? I truly hate time right now!
Kinda lose your sense of time
'Cause the days don't matter more
At last, I reached my destination but Hayner got up and left. He was fuming red and glared at me with a 'you-kept-us-waiting-for-so-long stare'. I sat down next to Olette and kept my head low. If it weren't for Pence's comfortable words and Olette's wonderful rub on my back, I could actually just burst into tears. Deep inside, I felt a mixture of feelings. I didn't what or how to feel.
All the feelings that you hide
Gonna tear you up inside
I faced upwards. And my eyes fell on Olette's face, which was looking somewhere else. Even if she seemed at peace, Olette was worried sick. She had eye bags, that were almost as similar to mine, and she was yawning now and then. And Pence, well, he's just confused. An arrow of guilt struck at my heart. Hayner was right. I was totally keeping secrets from them. It's just that, I don't want to drag them into my mess. I just hope they could understand.
You hope she knows you tried
We spoke a little bit. It lasted for ten minutes, though. After that, we bid farewell to each other. I recalled about today. My hair was really sticky and I was sweating like it was 100°C around the area when I woke up in my room. I had discovered about a peculiar weapon that comes into my hand whenever I'm fighting. It was a big Keyblade and I could finally hit those creatures, in silver jumpsuits, with it.
Just when I thought things couldn't get worst, they appeared right in front of me. Luckily, I ducked its hit just in time. I was surrounded and there was no way I could escape. I picked up a stick and get into my battle stance.
Follows you around all day
And you wake up soaking wet
There was one huge problem, though. I have no idea how to 'obtain' the keyblade. At that moment, all I could do was duck and dodge their every move. "Ouch!" I shrieked as one of them had twisted and kicked in my direction. In result, it hit me on my back. I still have stamina to survive this battle. Where's that freaking keyblade when you need it?!
'Cause between this world and eternity
There is a face you hope to see, yeah
"Roxas, behind you!" A feminine voiced shouted.
I turned behind and shielded myself with the stick. It was almost like the time had decreased its speed and I know that stick wouldn't work. Is this really the end? I don't know. I closed my ears tight and gritted my teeth. I felt a little touch from the creature and I knew this is it.
You know where you have sent her
You should know where you are
Suddenly, I felt its touch shifting away and something replaced the stick in my hands. I opened my eyes and gasped as the object on my hand was the keyblade similar to the one that appeared a few days ago. Time went back to normal speed again. I saw a figure standing at the top of the house that was a little farther away from where I was standing. I could hardly recognize the face or body. I stopped day dreaming and began the fight but, I really wanted to find out who the person is. I tried bringing the 'Nobodies' nearer to me by running away from them and going to the person's direction.
You're trying to ease off
But you know you won't get far
My back was facing the direction of my destination as I knew I had to handle these ghouls or ghosts that just wouldn't give up. My weapon was caught in an interlock with one of the 'Dusk's' hands. I struggled to keep my balance as more of its comrades were approaching me. My head turned around and I realized that the figure had disappeared. I really didn't want to lose my objective. So, I kicked at my opponent's body and it ended up hitting all its other teammates. I searched around frantically and spotted the mysterious person right on top on another building just one block away from mine.
And now she's up there, sings like an angel
But you can't hear those words
It was, then, I figured out that 'it' was a girl. She had blond hair and she was wearing a small, white dress. Her blue eyes were staring at my blue ones and she was day dreaming too. All of a sudden, she gasped and turned and ran away.
"Wait!" I demanded but she didn't stop. I climbed up further more and jumped from one building to another. That could have killed me but I couldn't care more. Damn! She was out of my sight again. I heard footsteps running and followed the direction of it. Very soon, I saw her running up the hill that leads to the garage, which is used to put big items inside. "Hey!"
And now she's up there, sings like an angel
Unforgivable sinner
I stopped running as I knew I couldn't catch up with her. An Olympic runner? Nah, no such people here are one, unless, she's a new comer. She might have just shifted in. I saw her starting from yesterday but it just a glance and before I knew it, she was gone.
I was breathless and speechless at the same time. If this was a game and if I were the main character or something close, it would be cool. Maybe. I spun around and lifted my oh-so-heavy feet to take a step. When it landed to the ground, I felt my knees giving up and my eyes closing. I drifted away as I fell to the ground with a loud thud.
No, it's not over YET! So, what do you think? Should I continue? I need your reviews, you know? Please & thank you! x)
