A/N: Hey, it's NobodiesHeart! :D This is my first story, so please R&R! Now stop reading this, and start reading the story! :3 There is going to be swearing, so I'm just telling you.

I do not own Kingdom Hearts or any of it's characters. If I did Kairi would mysteriously die somehow, and Sora would fall in love with Riku. :)

The sun slipped behind the coastline of Twilight Town, and a darkness fell over the city. Even though the night was still early, you would find no one in their right mind wandering outside. For if you knew anything at all about Twilight Town, you would know to never roam the streets once the sun has gone down. If you did, the police would most likely find your body in the back of an alley, mugged and murdered by one of the numerous gangs in the town. If you want to have any chance surviving in this town, you needed to know the right people to protect you. Most of the time, that meant joining one of the gangs. There is three main gangs in Twilight Town, The Heartless, The Nobodies, and The Forgotten. All equally powerful and bloodthirsty, and would kill anyone without a glance. There was plenty of smaller groups, but they weren't as large as notorious as the big three. Rarely would a small gang make it far, because if they were ever saw as a potential threat, they were disposed of in the most gruesome ways. That's just the way it is in Twilight Town, kill or be killed. Sounds like a great place to live, right?

Mornings are peaceful and quiet in Twilight Town. After a loud night of gun shots and screams, as soon as the sun slips over the horizon the town turns into a completely different scene. At least on the outside, but for me it never changes. It's always the same endless cycle of pain, misery, and betrayal. Always wishing for an escape, but to proud to take the easy way out. My life is close to many other teens my age, except worse. My name is Roxas Strife, son of Cloud Strife the leader of one of the most dangerous gangs, the Heartless. So you can already see a glimpse of how bad my life is. Multiply that idea by about a thousand and there you go! A life in the shoes as Roxas Strife. Wonderful right? I shouldn't be complaining to much though, it could be worse then it already is. I could be dead...

With a sigh I slammed my front door shut and began my walk to school. Twilight Town High School starts at exactly 8:00 and if your even a second late, your tardy. It seems weird having a organized place in a town full of chaos. Doesn't mean it's any safer, but at least it seems that way. Maybe because it actually feels like a real school in this messed up town. I mean the teachers are strict, the lessons put you to sleep, and the kids are cruel bitches to who they don't like. Normal average High School.

Still walking down the main road to school, I noticed a skateboard lying abandoned at the side of the road. With a hop I jumped onto it and continued to skate all in one motion. Skateboarding came to me naturally. It was like I was born to do it. As soon as I felt the wheels hit the ground I was off. Well, I was until a foot came out of no where and tripped the board.

"Shit!" I wheezed out as I landed straight on my face. The back of my hair was pulled up sharply, causing me to wince, making me come face to face with the person who tripped me. He had a tan face with a scar running from his brow to the end of his nose. His dirty blonde hair was tucked back into a black beanie with a Japanese symbol on it. I recognized him from my fathers gang, but it seemed he hadn't figured out who I was, other wise he wouldn't dare be touching me.

"Listen you little shit," he hissed at me, "next time you go and try to rip off my board, you better think about who your stealing from. I'm Seifer from the gang The Heartless, so you better beg on your knees to let you go. I might too, since I have a soft spot for kids." He smirked at me, throwing my head down on the gravel road. Ignoring the throbbing pain from the new gash on my forehead, I glared up at Seifer and said as coldly as I could, "Have a soft spot for little kids, huh Seifer? Well, I'm sure Cloud would love to hear about that." I smirked inside as I saw his face pale to a sheet white.

"R-Roxas? U-um, come on, I'm sure we could work this out right? I mean I haven't done anything to you, and we're pals, right?" Ya, using me to get to my dad is sure a great pal... I don't have time for this loser.

I let out a sigh and waved my hand dismissively. "I really don't have time for this kind of shit, Seifer. Just... go, ok? I won't say anything to Cloud." I muttered as I picked myself off the ground, looking at my clothes to make sure they weren't torn. "T-Thanks, Sir!" Seifer said as he started to run off in a random direction as fast as he can. I guess having a gang leader as a dad really does have it's benefits sometimes... I never get beat up for one. But it also meant no one wanted to talk to me...

By the time I had made it to school, the bell had already rang and I was yelled at by the teacher as soon as I entered the room. I didn't care. What my attention was really focused on was the words the other people in the room were whispering.

"Just what you'd expect from Cloud Strife's son, another fucking bastard."

"He's such an ass, thinking he can do whatever he wants just because of who his dad is."

"I kind of want to talk to him, but I'm so scared of what he'll do... He always looks so angry."

"What a loser..."

All those kinds of things and more could be heard as I made it to my seat. I had to keep up an cool and collected look, to keep up to everyone's opinions of me. No one knows the real me, and as everyday passes I start to forget of who I am and become the other me. The one I see in the mirror every morning, the person who's me but isn't me. He has my spiky blonde hair, my icy blue eyes, and my full pink lips, but he just can't be me... I wouldn't glare so hatefully at everyone, and I wouldn't laugh as I saw another person fall to the ground bleeding. So who is he?

I just sighed one last time and shook those kind of thoughts out of my head. There was no use thinking about them, so I just stared out the window waiting for something exciting to happen. Same as the last day, and the day before. Today was just another normal boring day.

Little did I know that would all soon change.
