To Love Ru Twilight

Chapter 1 A Nobody's Dive to the Heart

I do not own anything in this story.

Falling. That was the sensation a blond-haired boy with blue eyes named Roxas was feeling as he's falling in the darkness around him. He opened his eyes and widened as he looked down below.

'That's….!'

There was a platform downstairs showing a blank white picture. He regained his body control and softly landed on the floor. As his feet slowly touched the glass floor, doves came from the floor flew out clearing it below and showed a picture with of him sleeping in his casual clothes instead of his Organization XIII black cloak in a sleeping state in the center. Spreading in both his hands were the Oathkeeper and the Oblivion Keyblades. In the background was Twilight Town with a sunset behind the clock tower. Between his head was pictures of his friends from Twilight Town: Hayner, Pence, and Ollette. On the other side, were Axel, Namine, and last one had a silhouette of a person with short hair making the Nobody question on who it was.

The Nobody was confused in his current situation wondering why he is in the Dive in the Heart.

The last thing he remembered was giving Sora his memories and feelings but then for an unexplained reason he felt pulled and ended up falling. The next thing he knew…

"I ended up here." Roxas finished. He raised his voice and looked up demanding to know why he's here.

"Alright, tell me why I'm here! Who are you?! Why did you bring me here?!" He demanded his answer was a familiar voice.

Hello, young Nothing. His eyes widened at the voice talking to him. This was the same voice he heard when he came here from Twilight Town.

So much to do, so little time. Now step into the center.

Roxas narrowed his eyes on what he was told to do but complied as he stepped into the center of the platform.

Power sleeps within you. If you give it form, it will be your greatest weapon. Now choose what you will wield.

The voice said it as three plinths rose from the ground and each one has a weapon Roxas was familiar with: Dream Sword, Dream Shield, and Dream Wand. Roxas knew what this was. It's the powers he would wield in the future and later Sora when he became a part of him. With a determined look on his face, he went to the power he chose.

Roxas went to the sword. As he picked up the sword, the voice called out to him.

The power of warrior. Invincible Courage. Power that brings ruin. Is this the power you choose?

Roxas answered, "Yeah." The Dream Sword disappeared in particles of light and went into Roxas. The Nobody felt power coming back to him. Ever since he's shown up he can't feel his original powers meaning he can't call forth his Keyblades. Then he heard the voice again.

Now which power will you give up?

Roxas looked at the Dream Wand and Dream Shield. Seeing his fighting style, he walked toward the shield. As he picked it up, the voice called out again.

The power of the guardian. One that protects all. Do you wish to give it up?

"Yeah, now tell me what's going on here?" Roxas said impatiently. Patience, Nothing.

The Dream Shield disappeared and the plinths begin to collapse. Alarmed, Roxas jumped off and ran towards the center. As he reached the spot, the Station platform began to break like glass and Roxas fell.

Groaning, he stood back up and looked around. His eyes widen seeing where he was. He was at the old hangout in Twilight Town where he used to hang out with his friends Hayner, Pence, and Olette and those said people were there at their usual spots. Roxas walked up to Hayner first. "Hayner?" He asked. "What is it that you're most afraid of?" "Huh?"

Your friends shall each ask you one question. Answer honestly.

Roxas nodded in understandment. "The thing I'm afraid of the most is… losing something that's important." Hayner disappeared startling the Nobody. Shaking his head, walked to Pence next,

"What is the one thing you cherish more than anything else?" Pence asked. Roxas thought about his friends and others ones like Sora, Namine, Axel, and... his head throbbed a bit recalling a memory with a girl with short black hair like Kairi's with blue eyes slowly smiling to him. 'What was that?' He gritted as he held his head with one hand. Looking at Pence waiting for an answer shrugging off the headache problem later. "My close friends." Pence disappeared.

He walked to Olette and she asked the final question," Roxas, what is your wish?" "My wish?" The girl nodded. Roxas closed his eyes thinking about what he wanted. In the beginning, when he was born he wanted to have a heart. He then wanted friends but had Axel and Roxas frowned at the memory of that girl again but shook his head to shake it off on thinking about it later. In the end though, he was fated to disappear into Sora to give back his power, his Somebody needed in order to be complete and awaken. Since then, Roxas was Sora and saw so many things through him. When Roxas decides to go back to Sora, he thought that was it for him but he met Sora again telling him that he deserves to be his own person surprising him. Roxas knows what Sora needs to do and entrusts him with his feelings and memories. Since then, Roxas remained with Sora but deep down he wished to be free and be with his friends again as well as… "A place to call home."

Olette smiled and disappeared.

Well said, Nothing.

Roxas annoyed that he heard the voice he asked. "Alright, who are you? What's going on? Who was that girl in my memories?"

That girl was someone precious to you. But her existence was gone when she decides to sacrifice it for your sake.

"My sake?"

Yes, her existence was threatening yours and decided to disappear along with people's memories of her along with yours.

Roxas looked down at the ground. "Then why am I remembering her now?"

I'm afraid I can't answer that but you will continue to remember her as long as you think about her.

Roxas frowned at that answer but if he continues to remember her maybe he'll figure out who she is and what she was to him.

The scene changed in light causing Roxas to cover his eyes with his arms. When he lowered them, he found himself in the same platform again.

Now that your path is set, you now possess the power to fight.

Black creatures formed around Roxas surprising him but grit his teeth knowing what these are. Small black, yellow eyes and antennas, they were Heartless, or rather Shadows their most common form.

Roxas looked around at the Heartless with anxiety. He can't fight them properly without the Keyblade. Then, he tried to concentrate again and much to his delight a flash of light formed on his hand.

A weapon appeared in shape of a skeleton key, this is the Kingdom Key Keyblade, Roxas' first Keyblade.

"Well this will do I guess." Roxas said as he took his two-handed stance. The Heartless attack after that but were no match with the Nobody's skill. He effortlessly beat down all the Shadows with ease thanks to his experience.

As he finished the last Shadow, the voice called out again.

Always remember the stronger the light, the more powerful your shadow becomes.

"My shadow?" Roxas asked with a raised eyebrow he turned towards and his shadow. Much to his shock, the shadow turn towards him and rose from the ground. Its form changed in the center of the platform.

The shadow then formed into Roxas but was clad in a black coat with his hood up hiding his face but what shocked him was that the Oblivion and Oathkeeper were in his hands.

The shadow Roxas then got into fighting stance as it twirled his Keyblades making them clash in sparks setting his dual-wielding stance. Roxas in turn got into battle position ready to take on his shadow.

"Man, so this is what Sora felt when he faced me that day." Roxas recalling the time he fought against Sora after conversing with him before he fought against Organization XIII. His shadow twirled its Keyblades again as it pulled them back. Seeing what he was about to do Roxas put his Keyblade as a shield, just in time for his opponent to unleash whirlwinds of light and dark as he slashed away with his Keyblades.

Roxas then used his gliding speed shooting himself towards his opponent and began his assault. Managing to get some hits, Roxas was about to finish his attack but was blocked in time by Shadow Roxas. The shadow then pushed Roxas off sending him a distance away from him. Shadow Roxas then shot itself forward as he closed in on his other self. It began to attack his foe as he parried with Roxas as he began his assault with his black and white Keyblades. All Roxas can do is block all the strikes and then his shadow crouched down and shot towards him with a cross slash.

Roxas took this chance to get behind his foe and launch standard combos since he was reduced to the time he was first born. He figured his abilities were reduced to this state due to the nature of this place. He started his assault again on his shadow again but it shot around him and threw his Keyblades like buzz saws damaging his back greatly.

Roxas was thrown back in pain and fell on one knee. He seethed his teeth in pain at the damage inflicted on him from his back. He should've seen it but that shadow was him and knows all of his moves plus with the oblivion and oathkeeper, it'll be difficult to defeat it.

The shadow shot forward again and Roxas return did one of his own. When they clashed with their Keyblades, Roxas demanded,"Who are you?" The force of the strike caused the foe's hood to blow off. It revealed something which shocked the Nobody. It was Roxas but the difference were his eyes. This one has sinister yellow eyes.

Eyes that can look deep into his soul.

"Tell me. Why are you even here?" S-Roxas ask confusing his counterpart. "In the end, you'll just disappear just like us Nobodies. So what's the point of actually existing?" Shadow Roxas then pushed himself forward and Roxas was sent backwards. S-Roxas then ran forward with his keyblades grinding behind him making sparks. Then, as it met his host he swung his keyblades but Roxas blocked them. He used the momentum to bring them down but it flipped over to get some distance.

They both jumped and shot forward. They created sparks as they swung in midair at each other hoping to get a single blow but Roxas had one Keyblade and it gave the shadow to bring down his keyblades but Roxas managed to block them. However, it made Roxas go down to the floor but he flipped to land safely in his feet.

Roxas glared up and his eyes widen when he saw his opponent floating in the air. Then again, he can do the same thing but kept that thought to himself.

"You were never supposed to exist in the first place and when you existed look where it got you. It led to misery and pain to the people around you even her death led you to so much pain. So what's the point of existing if it'll result in nothing just that?" S-Roxas looking down at his other half.

Roxas was confused at his shadow's cryptic warning especially when he mentioned her. "Her? What are you talking about?"

The Shadow shook his head. "it doesn't matter but I'll warn you that the path you'll take will have you burden all the hurt you had when you were you. The pains and losses…even the meaning of your existence caused all that hurt."

Roxas looked down on what he was talking about. Roxas is a Nobody, a being who's a cast off shell when Sora's heart was taken away. A being with no emotions meaning he can't feel anything. He doesn't even have memories of his past self which most Nobodies had. His existence was a lot like the lesser ones he commanded over.

But he experienced and had those feelings during the time he was with Axel and that girl even with Hayner, Pence, and Ollette despite the fact they were fake. He wondered if he even had a heart but he still have these feelings.

His entire life was nothing but hell and the hurt it carried along with it. But still all he ever wanted was the right to be, the right to be himself despite the circumstances.

With these thoughts, Roxas looked up his shadow and uttered," Yeah, my entire life was terrible and yet I have met people and learned what's like to have a heart both good and bad. It gave me a reason to exist longer."

Shadow-Roxas scoffed at this instead he crossed his Keyblades as he dove down towards Roxas. The nobody raised his Kingdom Key to intercept the strike and the shadow back dash to regain his distance. He then light dash at the speed of light with Roxas doing the same. As if time slow down, they began to bring out their Keyblades to strike one another.

'Now!' Roxas struck first as he drove his shadow high along with disarming his Keyblades. Taking this opportunity, he raised his hands and shouted, "Come to me!"

The Oblivion and Oathkeeper responded to his call and went towards Roxas. They floated behind as wings with Roxas smirking thinking he got his old Keyblades back. He heard a sound and a groan. He turned towards the source and he saw Shadow Roxas regaining his standing.

As the shadow regain conscious, he turned towards Roxas and his eyes widen in disbelief that the nobody has stolen his Keyblades. He growled at this but smirked. It looks like he has to use his own power to get them back. He raised his hands and to Roxas' shock pillars of darkness were formed and went to the Roxas.

Roxas was in disbelief when the darkness pillars were heading towards him. He quickly danced around them but he saw an array closing behind him. Too late he took damage and made him fell to the ground. He quickly stood up and saw his Shadow in a dark green and black aura.

"How are you…?" Roxas trailed off. His response was a scoff then a smirk. S-Roxas replied, "Whenever there's light, there's also darkness. Since you specialized in light-based attacks, as your shadow, I control the darkness. After all, whenever there's light, there's always darkness waiting since it's a part of us and they cannot exist without one another."

Roxas grit his teeth at the revelation. He was right and since he used Corridors of Darkness as a member of Organization XIII, the thing must've been a manifestation of that power. His thoughts were cut out when he saw the black pillars of darkness closing on him and he light dash to escape but he saw his shadow waving his hands and arrays of dark pillars appeared in different directions. Roxas immediately high jumped and glide towards his shadow. He flew towards him and launched an onslaught of slashes with the aid of the Oathkeeper and Oblivion. As he finished his combo, the black and white Keyblades disappeared and launched as missiles from different directions.

The damage taken was great in a desperate move the shadow vanish surprising the Nobody and then felt a presence behind him. He saw him take back the two Keyblades and created pillars closing in on them. Roxas saw his shadow preparing another attack but in quick speed he got behind him and slashed him at the side before he escaped the pillar trap.

"Impressive, looks like I'll have to kick this up a notch." He said as he swung his Keyblade. Then a dark pillar went towards Roxas. He danced around the pillars as onslaught of pillars continued to hinder him. He tried to find a way to get in close but when he looked ahead he saw Shadow Roxas gone.

"Wha..?!"

"Too slow."

Roxas turned and saw him threw his Keyblades like buzzsaws. Roxas blocked them with his Kingdom Key but he saw a black pillar closing in on him and struck him to the side.

"Guhh….!" Roxas cried in pain but the onslaught continued as Roxas tried his best to dodge and block but he was getting cuts and bruises. His past injuries also sapped his stamina and since he can't use any healing spells or items he won't be able to last longer in this fight. The Nobody then cut off his thoughts as his opponent let out a powerful throw and when he caught them he surrounded himself in a black orb with black and white lines sucking Roxas in.

Roxas grunted in pain as he stood up but his form was limping since he was covered in cuts and bruises with cutted up clothes. The Shadow Roxas frowned in front of himself and shook his head. "Pathetic, is that the best you can do? If so, then I guess this is it." As he raised his Keyblade.

The Nobody grunted as he blocked the strike and took his chance distance himself. The shadow stared at the Nobody with scorn. "Why don't you just quit? I have your full powers in my grasp and there's no way you can defeat me. Besides you're a Nobody. A person that shouldn't exist and doesn't even feel anything. What's the point of all of it? You have no one. Axel is gone. Hayner, Pence, and Ollette were all fakes. Your last happy moments with them were all nothing but made-up data. You're destined to disappear into nothingness so what's the point of continuing this?" He questioned.

Roxas looked at all the points that his Shadow pointed out. He was right. He is a Nobody, a being that is not supposed to exist. He's not even sure if he had feelings when he spent his fake friends were real. All he wanted was the right to be himself, to live a simple life, to actually have a heart of his own. But most of all he wanted was a home, a place where somebodies can look at Roxas as Roxas. That's all he wanted.

"You're right. I'm a Nobody. But those times I spent for my entire existence, I felt many emotions." He chuckled. "I wasn't supposed to exist. But if I had a chance to exist again. I'll happily take both sides of that path. I'll continue to fight for my existence. It's all I have and I'll accept it."

The Dark half clenched his teeth at his answer, "You accept it? Then I'll have to teach you why you should accept the fact you should give up that good and bad existence!" Shadow Roxas formed thirteen short pillars of darkness and formed a magic circle with the Nobody symbol.

Roxas widen in shock at this. "This is…...!" The Dark Roxas said nothing as he raised his Keyblades into the air and shot a beam of darkness into the sky. The sky became twilight after that and Roxas formed two dark orbs and yelled, "Dark Hour!" Black orbs of darkness shot out like missiles. Roxas quickly glide himself across the field to dodge them all.

As the attack session was over, Roxas saw his dark self gasping in exhaustion from the attack. With a smirk, he light dashed and quickly gave him attacks hoping to defeat him. But his last strike was blocked and they jumped backwards.

"Haaa….Haaa"

"Haaa…..Haaa"

Both of Roxas were gasping in utter breath as the toll of the battle took the most out of them. Sweat fell from their faces as they lean in keep themselves straight both refusing to fall down in defeat.

Then Dark Roxas ran towards Roxas with his keyblades grinding against the floor. Roxas couldn't move as his opponent approach him and raised his weapons. He raised the Kingdom Key in defense to take all the blows his dark self was giving him. However, the Nobody fell on one knee and Dark Roxas took his chance as he swung his Oblivion. With its strength enhanced swing, the Kingdom Key flew out of the Nobody's hand.

Roxas in desperation ran towards it but it's hilt was blocked by the Oathkeeper's teeth. Roxas stumbled for a bit and fell on one knee. He saw his dark self pointing his Oblivion at Roxas with a smirk.

"You lose."

Roxas growled with gritted teeth and stared at his Keyblade caught between the teeth of the white Keyblade. Then a memory came through his mind.

Sora was reaching out for his Kingdom Key which was caught in between Roxas' Oathkeeper's teeth. The Keyblade disappeared and reappeared in Sora's hand.

Roxas blinked at the memory flashing in his eyes and then he turned toward his Kingdom Key. Roxas held out his hand and closed his eyes.

'Please, if you have really chosen me…lend me your power.'

The Kingdom Key disappeared and a flash of light gathered into Roxas' hand.

However, the flash was also accompanied with black and white thorns. This effect confused both Roxas. Then, something unexpected happen. The Keyblade that appeared in the Nobody's hand wasn't the Kingdom Key.

This Keyblade had the Nobody's sigil on the hilt with black and white checkers on the handle. The blade wasn't blunt but more sharper and longer reach and the teeth were black and white pointed thorns. The keychain had Roxas' zipper pull.

Roxas recognize this Keyblade from his memories of Sora. This was obtained after he fully accepted Sora and gave him his powers and his final Drive form. Two Become One, the Keyblade that gives Light & Darkness to its wielder.

With a determined look on his face, Roxas raised the black and white key with both hands.

"Event Horizon!"

The Nobody sent his baffled dark half in a series of slashes and attacks. But he wasn't finished, he swung again and four pillars of light appeared around him circling hitting the dark half.

When the attack was finished, Roxas panted as he spent the last of his strength into that attack. He looked at Dark Roxas who was lying on the ground. That was the most hardest fight he's ever fought in. He know he was strong but not this strong. He once overpowered Sora through brute force during that fight but due to his carelessness in the Keyblade's power he lost but this fight he tried to do something different since Dark Roxas might've seen through that if Roxas did the same thing.

He watched carefully if his foe was trying to do anything. To his shock, he saw him getting up. Roxas tightened his jaw as he readied his stance again despite the fact how exhausted he was ready for another round.

CLANK!

The Oblivion and Oathkeeper dropped to the ground and vanished in a flash of light and darkness. Dark Roxas dropped to his knees and stared at his original's face with a satisfied look on his face.

"Heh, you pass Roxas. Congratulations, you beat me." He stared at Roxas with a weak smile and wisps of smoke started flow up

Roxas watched as his dark self dissipated into nothingness and his Keyblade vanished from his hand. He only stared in silence at the spot where his foe faded away with a solemn look on his face.

Congratulations, you have beaten your foe and now you have the power to face any foe.

To his shock, he saw the platform was being engulfed into a dark pit sucking him.

But don't be afraid….

Roxas struggled as he was getting sucked into the portal. He tried to not let the darkness swallow him so it was no use and Namine wasn't here to help him this time.

Then, he found himself floating in darkness. He looked around waiting for a way to get out. Then, just as hope was about to fade away from the Nobody he saw light shine down above him.

He looked up and saw a light flashing beckoning for him to enter. His eyes widen at the sight and wondered. 'Is that the Door to Light?'

This pathway will you to the outside world. To the unknown part of the Realm of Light.

Roxas scrunched his eyebrows. To the unknown part? What did the voice meant by that? He shook off that question but looked at the Door with a smile on his face if that door leads to the outside world….then he can actually exist and finally find a place to call home.

Roxas eager to go tried to go but as he tried to fly towards the light but as he struggled to fly he couldn't. Then suddenly his Two Become One appeared in his hand.

Throw your Keyblade. It has a special power that no Keyblade you have in your possession has yet to possess but this will give a familiar power that'll lead you to the Door to Light.

Roxas complied with the voice's request and threw the Keyblade. It spun around for a moment and in a flash of light and darkness it transformed into a familiar glider much to Roxas' shock.

The Nobody recognize this glider anywhere. This was the same glider that Sora and Riku used to fight against Xemnas and his Dragon Battleship. However, there was a big difference between them. It lacked the sidecar.

Roxas sat on the glider and turned it towards the light. The glider flew closer and as it did Roxas heard the voice again.

Don't forget Roxas. That you hold the mightiest weapon of all.

And don't forget….

That you'll be one of the chosen that shall open the Door.

Roxas' vision turned white making him close his eyes as he entered the light and then he felt another sensation of falling.

He opened his eyes and look down below and to his shock he saw that he was falling into a body of water!

Roxas screamed and splashed down. He swam back up to the surface and looked around then to his shock he was in the middle of a storm. He looked around looking for shore and to his delight he saw a city lights along with a beach to far from here.

The Nobody tried to swim towards it but the storm's winds were bringing in waves making it difficult for him to focus his form. As he struggled to swim, he noticed his clothes changed again into his signature black coat.

He stopped for a bit if he can make a corridor of darkness to escape to the beach but then he saw a big shadow in front of him. Turning around he saw a big wave about to engulf him. When he tried to do anything, it was too late. The wave engulfed him in water and made himself snuffed the sea salt water into his nose making his brain shut down.

Roxas tried his best to get as much oxygen as he could but the struggle was no use. Roxas couldn't move when he lost consciousness.

Roxas opened his eyes again finding himself struggling to stay awake. He was facedown on the beach as he cleared his vision. He smiled finally able to survive the sea but he started to lose vision again due to the exhaust for his swimming and the water filling his body. Then, he saw a sign which read,

"Sainan…Town?" Then he saw a car stopped himself below the huge sign. The door opened revealed a woman with red hair and green eyes wearing a lab coat with a concern look on her face. She saw Roxas with widen eyes and rushed to his aid.

Smiling that help was arriving, Roxas closed his eyes letting him sleep in the beach on this new world he arrived in.

AN: Hi, this is my first fic. Hope this is a good start and I want to give Roxas, the Two Become One because it'll be like his signature Keyblade when using a single Keyblade. Don't worry his Synch Blade ability will appear but not too soon. The pairing is harem of course with Lala as the main and one more thing he won't meet like the princess like canon it'll be different but don't worry he'll give a proper 'proposal' but he get tricked by Lala into doing it. This story is inspired by fanfics of DrWriter21.
