A/n: Another angst fic from yours truly.

This one isn't XemSai. Nope. It's told from Sora's view, after he kills Saix. That's all I'm going to say. Read the story.

R&R, please!

Summary: It's a shame how time can't heal all wounds. Or regrets. Heroism doesn't seem to be all it sounds like anymore.

Disclaimer: I don't own Kingdom Hearts…

"Kingdom Hearts…where is…my heart…?"

As Saix reached up for that moon like it was everything to him, I soon had a realization.

What I was doing is wrong.

Yen Sid may have been right about Organization XIII wanting hearts, and my sense of 'justice' took over just then. It wasn't right for them to do all of that, I thought. They had no right to lock me up in a pod and keep me there for a couple of years.

Then I saw it. They had every right to do all of that. All those snide comments I made when I faced the individual Nobodies. They didn't deserve that.

What kind of hero does that make me? When I destroy someone's dreams and aspirations, what do I accomplish as a hero? I could've maybe helped them, and that could've curved things to go the right way. Instead, I let myself end it the wrong way.

I can't say anything about it to Riku, Kairi, or anyone else. It wouldn't fix anything I've done.

"Hey, Sora, you okay?"

I turned around to face my group of friends, forcing a smile to reassure I was perfectly fine. "Yeah, I'm doing great."

If this is what a hero really is, what a Key Bearer is supposed to do…

I don't want to do it anymore.

( - -) And We Close The Curtains… (- - )

Look….that's just how I think it should've gone if Saix couldn't live. I HATE Sora (sorry Sora fans) and I think he should at least give some respect to the Nobodies who worked their non-existent asses off. Not branch off to some happy conversation. "Why does everyone keep calling me Roxas?"

Sora's a jerk.

…Eh heh…I'm sure I'm gonna get shot now…
