Ok guys thanks for bearing with me on this. i hit writers block and im re-posting everything new and updated. if you don't understand Roxas POV all will be explained in the next few chapters. thank! chapter one re-posted!

Roxas POV "aww Roxas ' not fair! You cheated!" I smiled at my little brother. He was younger by 1 year. And even though there was an age difference we still get mistaken for being twins. We are both around the same height, short. We have blue eyes like our dad and very spiky hair. With tan skin. But Sora has brown hair while I have blonde. And hes a complete clutz while I have the brains and balance.

"did not. You cant cheat at rock, paper, scissors. Its impossible." I stuck my tongue out at him.

"that's mature for a 9 year old. moooom Roxas is cheating!" Sora turned to the front of the car. I snickered.

"and that's mature for an 8 year old."

"what'd you say?" Sora sounded upset. But I knew he was acting. Its Sora. He always jokes.

"not now sweety mommy is driving. Honey can you take care of them." dad turned around in the car's seat towards us.

"all right which one of you won?" I smiled and raised my hand.

"i did! I did! i-"

"yeah cuz you cheated!" Sora stuck his tongue out at me.

"hey, I called winner when we left so now its me, ba ba bum, versus Roxas!" I looked out the wind shield as dad leaned further back in his chair to play. We were getting ready to turn off the road, and we had pulled into the turning lane and mom was waiting for a break in traffic. I looked back at dad and made a fist for the game"ok, rock, paper, scissors, shoot!" I quickly stuck out paper while dad stuck out rock.

"i win again! I am the rock, paper, scissors champion!" I threw my arms in the air, while dad turned around in his seat. With a look of fake sadness.

"gah! I lost to my own blood! How can my son beat me?" dad fake cried.

"come on, when will the stupid traffic break?" I turned towards Sora as mom started to get impatient and stuck out my tongue. "its just car after car." I heard her huff air.

"no look honey there's two semi trucks." I held back a giggle at dad. Sora tapped my hand, and I looked over at him. He laced his finger with mine and we held hands. I smiled at him. No hard feelings. Out of the corner of my eye I saw head lights of cars pass us. I turned back more to where I could see out the rear windshield and saw a car coming up fast.

"mom there's a car coming up fas-" the car slammed into us from behind. I slammed my face on the head rest from the impact and felt the car move forward. I went to look at mom and dad but I stopped halfway. We were out in oncoming traffic. I saw the lights of a semi as it got closer, and Sora was only an inch of metal and glass separated him from the semi. He was closest to on coming traffic. My eyes met Sora's and I reached my arms out, the same time he did. The semi T-boned us as Sora slammed into me. I fell backwards as I wrapped my arms around him. I felt the back of my head hit the side window and I saw glass shatter all around me. All of a sudden glass from Sora's window shattered and flew at me. It was all in slow motion and I couldn't move. I didn't get a chance to close my eyes from the glass.

I sat up in bed. I had a nightmare that woke me up but I couldn't remember it anymore. My hand landed on a hip under the covers with me I moved my finger and felt the slight dip of where there was a sliver of missing bone. It was Sora's hip. I sighed and laid back down. I turned on my side to face Sora. I laced my finger with his while he slept. "were ok." I opened my eyes to darkness. I closed them again and took a deep breath. I smelled mint, and honey, it's what Sora always smells like, I just laid there and listened. I heard the many breath of all the boy in our orphanage. We all slept in one room, since it was a large room and we were all boys. I could hear Tidus muttering in his sleep. Tidus: age 8, likes Yuna, and to play ball games. I hear Milo mumble something but I couldn't understand it. Milo: very thin, likes to read books, and speaks many languages. I took another deep breath and something wasn't right. The air was slightly tinted with smoke. I shook Sora's shoulder. "Sora, Sora wake up!" I shook him harder.

"whhhh-whats wrong? Do you have to go to the bathroom? You should know where it is by now." he rolled away from me. I shook his shoulder again.

"Sora I smell smoke. Come on we have to get everyone out of here!" I pulled the cover off of us and set my feet on the ground. It was cold but it didn't bother me. I took another deep breath. I'm 9 steps from the wall in front of me. 12 steps to the wall behind me, has a window 3 feet high and 2 feet left from directly behind me. 13 steps to my left Ill run into the wall 13 steps to my right ill run into the other window in this room. 20 bed in here with 20 kids. The nearest bed it 3 steps to my right besides the bed I just got out of. I can go straight and turn left to get to the door. The beds are set up in a grid pattern. Each is 3 steps apart.

"Rox you go get the girls, ill get Tifa and the boys! And I smell the smoke too!" I heard Soras voice to me left. I nodded and ran forward. I turned left headed to the door. I pulled it open and heard the fire. I put my right hand on the wall as I ran to my right to get to the stair case. I felt heat lick at my fingertips as I brushed the corner to the staircase. I turned the corner and started running up the steps to the girls room. I got off on the next landing and too a left. I let my left hand trail the wall this time. I passed 3 doors and the reached the girls room. I dropped my left hand lower and felt the doorknob. I twisted it and shoved the door open.

"GIRLS COME ON, TIME TO GO!" I heard several shouts and then someone touched my shoulder.

"Roxas?" it was Yuffie's voice. Yuffie: age 7, thinks shes the grates ninja in the world. Loves playing pranks.

"whats going on?"

"i dont know?"

"the wall is on fire!"

"why are we getting up in the middle of the night?"

"we are going to die!"

"what time is it?"

"oh god"

"whys Roxas here?" I registered the voices of the girls here. I cleared my throat.

"there's a fire and we need to get out, head in single file line out the front door, hurry! Make sure you get everyone Grab nothing!" I waved over head towards the door. "GO!" I heard the pitter patter of their feet. Girls room: 14 steps by 12 steps. Beds also aligned in a grid pattern. I heard the last girl run out of the room and I took a deep breath and listened to make sure no one else was in here. I heard a sob and then a small breath. "who's there?" I ran over to where I though I heard the sob.

"help..." it was Yuna. Yuna: age 6, newest member to the orphanage, likes to dance and likes tidus. I bent down on my hands and knees to search for her. Her voice sounded low like she was under her bed. My hand brushed over a shoe and I reached around the shoe. It was warm and had a foot in it. I felt my other hand out and found her hair. I grabbed her around her waist and lifted. She made a small gasp.

"you ok Yuna?" she was shaking, and I felt warm tears drop on my shoulder. I balanced her on the right side of my hip and headed for the door. 8 steps forward 2 steps right. "I got burned, it on my shoulder. It hurts. I got it getting out of bed. I fell and part of the wall is on fire." she was crying harder now. All of a sudden she screamed in my ear. I ran the last few steps towards the door. " hurry the fire is spreading!" I grabbed the door knob with my left hand and felt a sharp sting of pain. I winced and pulled my had back. I think its burned. I ran over to the wall on my left.

"quick Yuna is there a window here?" she wouldn't stop shaking.

"yeah it's up ahead on the right. But the fires spread through the door!" I switched her to my left hip and reached my right hand to the wall. I felt a sharp pain again but I kept it there. I walked forward. 1 step, 2 steps, 3 steps, 4 steps. 5 steps. I felt the ridge of a window. I heard sirens approaching.

"Yuna look out the window, is there a ladder or a lamp post near or anything?" she coughed and the smoke got stronger.

"no...but here comes a fire truck." shit we can't get out this way.

"ok Yuna I need you to do me a favor. Grab two blankest off the two beds, and hand them to me ok?" I set her down. Ok we can go out the front door then, but I gotta bundle her up so she wont get burned.

"here" she handed me the blankets and I picked her up and set her on my pack.

"ok, we are going to go through the fire, but I need you to tie this blanket around you." the blanket was taken from me and I felt her move and adjust then the blanket rub against my neck. "tied in?" I felt her nod. " ok hold on." I coughed, I grabbed the second blanket and draped it over our heads. I carefully turned around and put my left hand on the wall I felt a sharp stinging pain. I heard a loud snap where I put my hand and quickly pulled back. I took off running towards the door. My foot caught on a bed frame and I stumbled but I kept running. I slammed my left shoulder into the door and heard a scream through the entire time. I felt the sting of heat on my feet and I pushed onward in a run to the stairs. "are you hurt?" I squeezed Yuna's hand as I ran.

"im f-fine. But im scared and I can't see." her voice was shaky and higher pitched then normal. I started to run down the stairs. I heard a loud snap and felt the floor shake. This can't be good. I swung my right arm around my back and grabbed Yuna and pulled her off my back. I swung her around in front of me and kept running. I felt my left foot drop through the stair and I fell forward. I twisted so I fell on my left shoulder instead of Yuna. I quickly got up and started running again. I was almost to the second floor. Two more till im on the base floor.

"ROX TOSS HER!" I knew it was Sora and I knew he would catch her. I stumbled as my foot got stuck in another stair. I let Yuna fly out of my arms as I fell. I felt the two blankets go with her. I heard her hit Sora's chest as he caught her.

I didn't hit solid wood as I fell. "Roxas!" I fell through the stairs. I felt intense heat and I brought my arms up to protect my face as I fell. All of a sudden the flame was gone and it was just warm. I opened my eyes and felt the impact I was waiting for.
