Disclaimer: I don't Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts 2, Kingdom Hearts CoM, nor the enevitable sequel. I don't own square enix. I probably don't own my own soul, so as far as this goes, let's just say I don't own anything refered to in this document that is copyrighted by someone else.
I don't have a past. Or if I do…it's not important. Because…I can't remember.
I do remember darkness. It wasn't bad or good. Just dark. Almost like…nothingness. It seemed to want to pull me apart. But, I had the strength. I was not going to lose who I was, even if I was worthless. Even if I was nobody.
I can't tell you how long I waded through that abyss. Not in months, days, or years. I know that it wasn't an eternity, but it wasn't a fleeting moment, either. I just know it ended when I was called out to.
I would have been glad to here anything besides the muffled silence I was elipsed in. But it was more then a voice. It called to me. My name—that's what seemed to shatter the nothingness.
Because even if I had no past, even if I was useless, I had a name. It was who I was. And even if I was only half a person, even if I was nobody, I was Roxas. Roxas, Roxas, Roxas.
I found a pathway through the nothingness, opened by my hearing that voice. I followed it, each step closer to whatever was looking for me. And there, in the nothingness, I finally found them.
I saw their hand seeped in the darkness, quite like the one hanging at my side. I placed it within theirs, and felt the sensation of being lifted upwards, feeling the burden of nothingness melting away from me.
I knew this person was not ordinary. I knew I now owed them my life, my existence. Because if they had not found me, I'd still be there—lost in my nothingness.
Author's Note: So, now that you've read it, review? Oh, and this whole fanfic takes place between the end of KH and right before KH2. It's CoM time-wise, but this goes I bit further, I hope. This fanfiction is looking at what may have happened between when Roxas awakens, and when he becomes a part of Sora (again). Spoiler-rific:3
