A/N: This is a spin off chapter for my (hopefully to be re-named) KH fanfic "What I'm Looking For". I'm not sure when I'm going to get to this part of the fic, but I just wanted to write out this little one-shot for Demyx as he dies.
The flash.
The flash that ended my life, well, at least my life as a Nobody that is.
I didn't really want to fight the kid. I'm not really a fighter, heck; I'm not even that smart. Not smart enough to turn tail and run.
Yeah, I would have gotten in trouble, but I would have taken it.
Sora.
Sora, the kid with the Keyblade. The one I was fighting. The one I just lost against.
You know what? For some reason, it doesn't hurt. I know it should, for being hit by the Keyblade enough times so that a bunch of brain cells won't be going home to their kids, but it doesn't. I just feel tired and maybe a little dizzy.
As I kneel on the ground, I gaze over to my sitar, watching the bubbles appear as it starts to fade away. As a minute passes, I notice that my arms are staring to fade away also.
Death doesn't seem all that bad. Although it's a little freaky to watch yourself fade away.
I hear a noise.
"Quack?"
It was the duck, I think his name was Donald. I bring my gaze up to Sora, to see what's going on. Before the duck, he was staring at me, still with his Keyblade drawn, maybe thinking in case I decide to attack again. I saw his gaze move to Donald and Goofy and then he looked in the direction they were.
Whatever it was, it was probably nothing good.
I start to get a little weaker as I looked up to see what the three were looking at.
I wish that I didn't.
There she was, standing beside the mouse king, Mickey. They were both out of breath, so maybe they were fighting Heartless, while Sora and the others went ahead.
She, Raya, was staring at me with this saddened look on her face.
The mouse king turned to look at Raya and watched as the tears rolled down her face. I was going to call out to her when I heard a loud clang that resonated against the rocky walls; Raya threw down her Keyblade on the stone steps and started to run towards me.
It's weird when things like this run in slo-mo.
My mind decided now was the time to reminisce memories of my life as a Nobody and the time I meet Raya, back in Atlantica.
It was a weird feeling that I didn't understand when we first met, a warm feeling that enveloped my chest when I thought about her, the slight pain when I was away from her and the worried feeling when one of my fellow members went out on a mission to a world that she and Sora were in.
I looked at Sora, who was paying no mind to me,
'Hey Sora, as I said before. We do too have hearts'I just think mine was broken at the moment.
Raya was almost to me. She was crying even harder now. I knew she would never get to me in time.
Sora was moving towards her with his arms open, was he thinking that any gesture from him was what she wanted right now?
I faintly heard him say something like:
"Raya! Let me explain…"
Raya's expression changed into a mixture between heartbreak, betrayal and anger. She moved away form Sora and shouted something, I could barely hear anything right now and then she shoved Sora as hard as she could. I think she may have even elbowed him in the face.
She still came towards me, but it was too late.
She fell to her knees and reached out for me, but there would be nothing for her to hold onto. I now had tears running down my face.
I had just enough time to look into her face and smile.
"See you later kiddo"
