"So, you know where Xyra is?" Axel asked.
"No, she's been late before, but never this late." Roxas explained.
"Hope Xigbar isn't giving her a hard time." Axel said.
"I'd think I'd be able to handle him." a new voice said.
"Xyra!" What took you so long?" Roxas asked.
"Ah well, you know. Normal stuff. Heartless getting the way." Xyra explained while sitting down.
"Tell me about it. I'd wish they'd hold still for once. I fell on my butt chasing a mushroom one." Axel complained. They all laughed while sitting on the Clock Tower and eating their seasalt ice cream.
"It's so much more quieter without Larxene here." Demyx said.
"Excuse me?" a voice asked.
"You again." Demyx complained.
"You're hanging out with these creeps?" Larxene asked while gesturing towards Roxas and Xyra.
"Like you aren't a creep yourself." Demyx muttered.
"Nevermind, I have no time for you anyway." Larxene said while walking off.
"What was that about?" Roxas asked.
"Just Larxene being Larxene." Demyx explained.
"Well, you guys can keep on talking. I'll just be going." Xyra said.
"Where are you going?" Roxas asked.
"Well, just gonna walk around and meet someone." Xyra replied.
"See ya later then." Demyx said.
"DiZ, I can't keep this up much longer! Sooner or later they'll find out." Tyra/Xyra said.
"But you must. And they can't turn you into a Dusk, so no need to worry about them finding out." DiZ explained.
"But-" Tyra started to say, but DiZ cut her off.
"You want to protect him don't you? Then you need to do this." DiZ said. Tyra sighed.
