The End of Summer Vacation
By MyOwnShukuun
The anger that Roxas felt while lashing out at the digital projection of Diz quickly faded as he watched the capsule before him let out a hiss of air. As it blossomed, Roxas looked up to the figure inside, a look of sadness and irony upon his features.
"Sora…"
A small smile graced his lips, his eyes going over the teen. It was half of his power that he had. He was the reason for his accidental existence. Roxas took in the sleeping form with a heavy feeling in his chest. 'In my heart,' he tried to convince himself, sighing as Sora floated, suspended by nothing but air. Roxas lightly touched his chest, over the place where a heart would be, had he one at all.
He had all of Sora's memories; every happy and sad moment in his life. He recalled a boy and girl from somewhere on an island… 'Destiny Islands,' he recalled absently, inching slowly up to the pink-hued capsule. 'Those two… Riku and… and Kairi. They are his friends. And the only one I had…' Roxas smiled sadly, 'I "remembered too late."' He was now within reaching distance of Sora, edging his way around the jagged parts of the opened vicinity Sora inhabited. He stopped for a moment.
"You're lucky."
He moved again, this time reaching out to Sora with slight hesitation. 'What is he to me anyway… my "Somebody"?' He thought back to what Diz and Naminè said to him, and a feeling of hopelessness came over him. 'When Sora wakes up, I won't exist anymore.' The tips of his fingers just grazed the hem of Sora's red shirts, which looked kind of short on him…
Roxas pulled back, walking back to where he was previously standing. He watched Sora for a moment longer, taking in his "Somebody", and exhaled softly, a small, odd smile adorning his face.
"Looks like my summer vacation is… over."
And he watched Sora's form float along, until all he could see was white.
