As sapphire eyes stared at the sky, it was overcast with dark cloud. He began to walk away for the playground that he and his friend always play together. He blinked as a droplet of rain water dripped on his face. Soon, the rain began pouring heavily on him. Wasted no time, he ran back to his home. Blurry figures began to appear as he ran further into his home's street. Closer and closer, the figure turned out to be his neighbors. "What happened?" he wanders curiously. He went into the crowd and heard whisper.
"What happen to them, they don't deserve this and why...?" said an elderly woman holding onto an umbrella to cover herself from the rain.
"I... hea...heard that... they were murdered by -" stuttered a teenage girl with her school uniform still on her before being interrupted by and old man. "Don't they have a son? What's his name... did he survive the incident?" The entire crowd began to whisper to each other about the question asked.
"Roxas, the six year old kid, isn't it?" said one of the crowds. "That sweet child... oh dear, what happen to him..." the same elderly woman said with concern.
As soon as Roxas heard his name being in one of the conversation, after a few minute of connecting all the sentence, he finally aware that they were talking about his parents. He immediately rushed back to his beloved parents and hope that nothing had happen as he doesn't know the meaning of murdered.
He ran as fast as he could, tripping as in a while because of the slippery road, his house was getting nearer and nearer, but he stopped mid-way. The scene was horrible for our six year old Roxas. The front door was burned, windows shattered into thousand of pieces, the once warm and cozy home was now a cold and eerie haunted house. Inside the house was two drawn outline of figures, with Keep Out strip placed around the front door. Blood were scarred to the floor of the house.
xXx
Roxas' head jerked up upon awaken by his dream once again. Beads of sweat began to form on his forehead and dripped down on his face. Feeling a little dizzy by the sudden movement, he laid back down on his bed. He presume that it is almost time for getting ready to go to school as he could see dawn on his left through the only window in his room. To prove he was right, he turned to his digital clock for more confirm answer. A blinking red 6:00am was flashing at him in the dark room as if it was trying to get his attention.
Still dizzy from earlier force, he decided to lay low for a few minute before getting out of his comfy and warm bed. Think of the dream he just had, that dream was the only thing to his past as he doesn't remember anything before that. It is his only connection he had to his past. He doesn't remember his parent's names or even their face; he only remembers his own name. It was a miracle that he get pass through 10 years without trouble.
A headache was coming, so he stopped thinking and gotten out of the bed. As he made his way to the bathroom, he turned on the table lamp on the desk in his room. The light hurt his eye at first, but his eye gotten along with the light sooner or later. He walked out of his small room and into the bathroom.
Yes, his room was small, but it was enough for Roxas. The room consists of a work desk with a table lamp, his bed and a small wardrobe. You could say that his room was almost white, except that his wardrobe is brown. The wall of the room wasn't even decorated... Roxas thought that posters are useless and too much trouble. Roxas was very grateful of this room, he could afford to pay for the rental fee every month without delay.
The owner of this apartment was creepy to Roxas, he had this half white half silver hair that are long. His smile (grin?) plus his yellow-ish eye could shut a mad dog up. When it's time to pay, he won't rush Roxas to pay up quickly but instead he told Roxas that "You don't have to rush about the money, Roxas." That was creepy cause when the others didn't paid on the day they are suppose to, Mr. Xemnas would stare at them with his eerie eye until they frozen on the spot. That was weird...
Roxas glanced at his digital clock once again after he finished dressing and all, a red blinking 6.15am was shown on the surface. He decided to get breakfast as he was on his first day of a new school after the summer vacation. Yup, you guessed it, Roxas just moved here during summer vacation if you didn't know. Not wanting to waste time he fastened his footstep by skipping two steps at a time. He walked over to his small kitchen and search for something to eat in the fridge only to find a carton of milk. Maybe milk probably wasn't his favorite today as he felt a headache coming his way into his skull.
"The school... yea maybe the school has some edible food." cheered Roxas happily as he walk back into his room to get his books and bag before closing the lamp. He walked out of his apartment, just like he expected, the hall to be empty. It was that anyone here was getting up this early in the morning.
The school is just a 20 minute walk from his apartment, so that he won't need any of the transportation. It could also act as his exercise every morning for him. He took out the booklet of the school to see what he can do at this early morning or maybe where the cafeteria is. There was a summary of the school academic and sport result. Roxas didn't expect that it was that high, maybe the gossip was true. The gossip that he heard from the mother between elderly women in the sundry market he worked in said the following:
"How was Twilight High?" questioned the elderly women to her.
"It was great, the students are smart and active." chirped and exclaimed the lady happily. "I'm getting my son to that school!"
"That's great" was the reply from the elderly women and give her a warm smile.
The school front gate was now in sight. Roxas put away other article except the map for the school and went to search for his breakfast. The school was huge... but there always direction bars on the wall so, Roxas paid close attention to the sign and remember easily around the school area. Soon, he found the school's cafeteria but his appetite was gone for some reason. Around his own tour around the school, he didn't saw any student around the school facility.
He went outside the school and found a spot with picnic table and chair and tree surrounding it. He felt a little tired from the walking around the school. He came to a conclusion that he should take a rest at the tempting wooden chair. After having his comfortable position, he crossed his arm on the table and rests his head on his arm. (that's what I do every morning at school :D, on my desk that is...)
Before he even got the chance to lose himself in his slumber, his forehead that was resting on his arm was getting warmer and warmer. "Maybe I worked to hard there summer..." Roxas mumbled, glanced on the big clock on the school building as he felt his eyelids were getting heavier too, he closed his eyes and lost consciousness. Hoping this tiredness would pass after the nap... ... clock ticking, half an hour before the bell rang.
xXx
RING!
The bell rang loudly, the clock's longer hand worked his way to the top. Of cause the students of Twilight High knew that it's a tradition that this school will have an hour or more assembly after every summer vacation every year... some of the senior students try to slink away from the assembly but was caught any how by the teachers.
Most of them dun pay attention to the talk at all as they know that it will be as boring as hell. Forcing you to listen to their endless rant about the school cleanliness and undisciplined students and blah blah blah... whatever
Because of no escape, the students all gather at the school hall. They soon were separated into groups of interest. There was a group of three out the school hall. The trios were talking animatedly with each other merrily as if they were long lost friends, one of them was taller than the other two. We presume that he's the third year student for this school then.
"Hey, what did you guy do this summer?" asked a hyperactive brunet as he beamed his bright blue eyes to his two friends.
"You never change do you, Sora?" said the taller in the group as he went to pet his brown spiky hair but Sora raised his hand up to defend his hair and yelled, "Not the hair! Riikuu…" There was a frown on his face, Riku just can't stop think that, it was the cutest thing he ever seem while smirking.
"OK, break it up your guy. Can't we even have a peaceful conversation for once?" stood between the two teen was an auburn hair girl. "Anyway, my mom brought me to Destiny Island for vacation! It was the best trip i had ever gone to!" the girl went all excited while she told them all 'bout the beaches she had fun with.
"I envy you, Kairi. I hope I can have a vacation there too... I was stuck here for the whole summer, have to help my mom with her job." said Sora with disappointment, but soon it was cover with a cheerful face. "But I do get to meet this cool guy at the sundry shop while I was helping my mom with the food supply."
"What about him...?" asked Riku not liking this at all. After all Sora's his! Not that he had the courage to tell that to Sora, but he will...
"Well, his name is Roxas. He just moves here, he said that he's going to transfer to this school too!" a happy Sora was dancing in front of his friends and doesn't care if others were looking at him. If there were people looking, Riku gave them a cold death glare... "So, what about you Riku, what cha do in the summer?"
"Err... nothing special, just went to the beach to surf. That's all." shrugged Riku while he caught a shot image a blue headed furious teacher. "Eh, better get going unless you wanna deal with Mr. Grumpy." the other two turned their head only to see the face of a grumpy and angry teacher, Saix. "Let's go guys, we dun wanna deal with him this early." said Kairi with a scared face as she remembered the last time she had detention with this teacher, it was pure evil...
They went into the school hall quickly. A yell was heard when they went inside. "GO inside now or I'm gonna give u all detention!" they knew that it was yell to the other students outside and they were in the safe zone. The trio soon separated as they in search of their old friend and the new kid.
xXx
"Oh god, I gonna be late... I dun wanna deal with Saix this early... pff..." A red head was running his way towards his school, Twilight High(duh), reminding himself how late he was for the first day of school. The sun was shining brightly and warmly onto him, the summer sky still flow on the air. "Today is definitely not my day..." the teen sighed as he thought about what just happened today while he put on this hood to shelter himself from the burning sun.
This particular person is- Axel, the name's axel, got it memorize? -hey... that's my job, shut up! eh hem let's continue. Up early in the morning, Axel find him that his bathroom was flooded with water. He had to wet himself- twice -in order to clean it up. Yea yea, i know my life sucks. cough arent you late for school?
Axel ran passed the school gate and hoped that none of the teacher saw him. When he walked pass the school garden, he caught a glimpse of a figure falling. "What the..." He minced toward the garden just to be caution of any danger from thief. The sun was still shining brightly, maybe its hotter now. "I wonder if his alright." Axel thought to himself. He found the person he was looking for, laying on the floor lifelessly. He panicked and went to help the poor fallen student.
He clasped on the younger one's shoulder to support him or was afraid that he might fall again, or maybe both. "Hey hey, are you ok?" ask Axel worriedly while shaking him a little. A groan was emitted from the blonde with a discomfort on his face. He place his hand on his forehead, only to discover that a fever there. "Come on, I get you to the nurse's office, kid." Axel brushed away his feathery blond hair from covering his eyes and carried the teen in bridal style into the school. A file of paper dropped from Roxas' and shattered onto the ground.
Seeing the article on the ground, Axel quickly picks them up before they were blown away. While gathering his belonging, a student id fell onto the ground. Axel took it and looked at it. There's information about this kid. "Roxas Kurosagi… where did I heard that name before…"thought Axel as he stuffed all his thing inside a file and take it with him together with Roxas to the nurse's office.
"Gonna stuff him more food… he's light for his age." Axel noticed that the younger student was a lot skinnier then he looked while carrying him. There's still two more block until they reach the nurse's office, hoping his fever didn't get any worsen. The nurse's office was now in front of him. He pushed open the door, get the blonde in one of the bed and find the nurse. Except that there was no sight of a nurse. Don't want the kid to suffer anymore; he immediately went to search for the nurse.
"N..no.. don.. go... pl.. ease" Axel turned back into the nurse's office to comfort the young blonde. A pair of half-opened hazy sapphire eye looked at Axel as he walked toward him. "Shhh... it's alright, I'm not going anywhere." Axel whispered to him in the ears with calm comforting voice. Roxas gave him a small smile before he's back to the unconscious limp body just before. Axel continued to stroke his soft yellow hair to keep him company.
