A/N: Hello all! So I've written here before, but haven't gotten much feedback, so I decided to try a different section. I have 'What If We' in the works, and this is my side project, but I'd really like to get it under way! Please, give me feedback!

Coming Together

Chapter 1

The Beginning

"Roxas wake up! We're gonna be late!" shouted a spikey haired boy from one side of the room. His brother Roxas rolled over in his bed, not wanting to greet the day. "Okay then Roxas, you asked for it!" shouted the other boy, who proceeded to jump onto his bed, lightly slapping Roxas on the head.

Roxas' eyes bolted open as he was hit, glaring up at his brother the entire time. "Sora, get off me! I'm awake I'm awake, cool your jets!" The boy yawned, pushing his twin off the bed. "What time is it anyway?" Roxas asked, still brushing the sleep from his eyes.

Sora grinned a cheesy smile as he got up from the floor, laughing as he did so. "Oh, it's somewhere around seven A.M.! said Sora. Roxas glared daggers at his brother, beginning to get up to take his revenge. "See ya downstairs in a few Roxas!" Sora said as he ran from the room, laughing all the way.

Roxas groaned to himself before edging his way out of bed. 'Seven A.M.? Who let Sora have sugar so early? More importantly WHY DID HE WAKE ME UP AT THE ASS CRACK OF DAWN?!' thought Roxas as he grabbed a black t-shirt and gray jeans, heading to the bathroom.


"There we go, at least my hair doesn't look too wild today." Sighed Roxas as he styled his blonde spikes into a somewhat neat fashion. Sora had a similar hair issue, only his hair could be compared to certain anime characters. Roxas slipped into his clothes, grabbing his signature X shaped necklace before heading downstairs for breakfast. 'Today is the day after all…..right?'


"Oh Roxas honey, I can't believe you and Sora are leaving me today!" exclaimed Sora and Roxas' mother Aerith as she handed Roxas a plate with chocolate chip waffles on it. She was a woman of average height with long brown hair. "Now eat up! You boys have a six hour bus ride ahead of you, and I can't have my boys getting hungry on the road!" said Aerith, beaming at her sons.

"Mum reyaff, ifz jus skool!" Sora said with a mouthful of waffle. Roxas smacked the back of his brother's head.

"Dude, at least finish your bite before you try to open your big mouth." Laughed Roxas as Sora glared at him.

"Ahem, what I was trying to say is that you should just relax mom! It's just school! We'll have our phones, emails, skype, carrier pidgeons….." Sora began to trail off into other various forms of communication.

"I know I know, I'll just miss you both so much! Do you know anyone else there or who you'll be rooming with?" asked Aerith.

"They better not be co-ed dorm rooms, or we'll have some trouble on our hands." said Sora and Roxas' father Cloud. He was a tall man with spiky blonde hair, similar to Sora's length, but lighter than Roxas'color.

"Don't worry dad, they keep the guys and girls in different rooms. 'At least I think so….' said Roxas to his father.

"Yeah dad, besides, even if Roxas lived with a girl I'm sure nothing would happen!" Sora joked, dodging the smack to the head Roxas tried to deliver. "Ha, missed this time Rox…..hey! My waffles!" Sora's eyes widened as Roxas took Sora's extra waffles from his plate, and began to devour them. "Roxas!"

"Sorry bro, early bird gets the worm, but the smart bird takes it." Roxas replied as he finished his breakfast. "What time does the bus get here dad?" asked the blonde boy to his father.

"Should be in about an hour, you boys finished packing right?" asked Cloud with a stern look in his eye.

"Yeah! Just need to take care of a few last minute things dad!" Both boys exclaimed, rushing upstairs to their rooms.


An orange and black bus became visible in the distance, almost shimmering in the early morning sun. Sora and Roxas walked out the front door with their parents, duffle bags in hand.

"Now boys, I want you to be careful at the new school. I packed you both some snacks just in case you get hungry on the way. Make lots of new friends!" exclaimed Aerith, tears in her eyes.

"And keep your grades up, we can't afford to send you two here on our own. Not at these prices." Cloud said with a stern voice as always.

"We'll be fine dad! Come on Roxas, the bus is ready!" exclaimed Sora as he ran towards the bus, full of energy as always.

'I've been awake for hours now, and he's bouncing off the walls. Is he on some kind of energy drug that I don't know about, and can I have some?' thought Roxas as he casually walked to the bus. He was looking forward to the school, but had a strange feeling that he just couldn't shake, almost like he was being watched.

"Roxas…..hello? Come on, we need to get on the bus!" Sora yelled back at his brother who had stopped walking, staring off into space.

"Right! Sorry Sora! Bye mom, see ya later dad!" said Roxas as he ran towards the bus, stowing his bags underneath. 'I'll worry about that later I guess. Got plenty of time to think on the ride.' thought the boy as he walked onto the bus. There were few students from the Destiny District that were leaving, but Roxas recognized only Sora. The boys headed to the back of the bus, taking the empty seats on either side of it. "Hey Sora, wake me up when we get there, I'm going back to sleep." Roxas said as he rolled into his seat, ignoring Sora's protests.


"Roxas, wake up…..ROXAS!" yelled Sora into his sleeping brother's ear. "Man you're a hard sleeper! Hope you can wake up for classes on Monday!" laughed Sora as he pulled Roxas out of his seat.

"Jeez Sora, I said wake me up, not deafen me! We're here already?" Roxas said as he looked out the window. The school was a lot more than he had expected. Tall buildings as far as he could see, as well as students simply out enjoying the sun.

"Don't zone out on me again bro, we need to get off the bus! Come on!" Sora practically dragged Roxas from his seat and out of the bus. "Apparently someone is supposed to give us a tour of the campus, but I guess they're late." sighed Sora as he glanced around.

"Oh, well look here! You must be some of the new freshmen. Name's Axel, got it memorized?" (A/N: I had to) said a tall boy with hair spikier than Sora's, only it was red. "From the looks on your faces, you think I'm here to jump you or something. Nah, not this time, boss man wouldn't like that. I'm here to show you to your rooms, and around the campus. Welcome to Twilight Academy boys."

A/N: So that was chapter one guys! Please tell me what you think! Thanks!
