Xion walked along a bright, red colored street. Everything here was peaceful.

"Hey!" a boy yelled from behind her. "Who are you and what is an Outsider like you around here for?"

"Darrien, I need you to remember me.. I'm Xion, remember?" she asked pulling down her hood.

**Roxas**

He was free to roam Twilight Town as long as he didn't leave. He would give anything to leave.. Too many memories of Xion.. He couldn't help but sit at the top of the clock tower. Sea-salt ice cream.. Laughing together.. Just the three of them..

"I thought you might be up here.." Axel came over and said. He sat down next to Roxas and handed him some ice cream.

"Are the three of us going to be...?" Roxas didn't know how to ask Axel this question..

"Xion was acting like she wasn't going to. She wants you and me away from the Organization for some reason.."

**Xion**

She followed Darrien into a rather small looking building on the outside but large on the inside.

"Xion! Good to see you again!" a busy old man exclaimed with wild eyes. "You look young as ever!"

"Thank you, Mr. Barnes.. Have you gotten any further in that research of the Heartless?"

"Has he gotten any farther?! He got a shadow heartless back into a heart and into a completely different heartless that's never been created!" Darrien yelled punching the air.

"Have you tried on people? I need to know whether it will change a person's appearance and personality," Xion told them.

"I almost was able to but, the heart turned back into a heartless before I could." the man replied. "Xion..?"

Xion was dragging her finger along in some dust.

"Xion..!"

She stopped abruptly and replied, "Yes?"

"I need you to go and collect heartless for me. With the experiments that I am going to conduct I need ten shadow heartless and ten of any other kind, alright?" he asked.

Xion nodded. She looked down at the dust and realized that she had drawn Roxas, Axel, and herself sitting on a beach.

**Castle That Never Was (Round Room)**

"We need to get Roxas back here. We cannot allow Sora to come back. It will ruin everything. Send three people to bring him back. Axel and Xion cannot be sent. They'll find him and let him escape," Xemnas told Saix.

"I'll go and take Xigbar and Xaldin with me," Saix replied, leaving the round room.

**Roxas**

"Axel? Do you think we'll see Xion again?" Roxas asked as they walked around Twilight Town.

"Maybe.. I don't think that we'll Xion unless she wants to be found, though.." Axel told him. He stopped walking and grabbed Roxas's arm. "Don't say a word," he whispered.

Roxas nodded as a dark portal opened and Saix, Xigbar, and Xaldin stepped out.

"Roxas, get back to Namine. I'll hold those three up..." Axel told him, shoving Roxas behind him.

"But Axel-!" Roxas whispered.

"Roxas, they'll take you back and won't let you decide if you want to or not. They'll do anything to bring you back to Xemnas. Go back to Riku and Namine and don't try to follow me. Go to Namine and Riku now!" Axel whisper-yelled.

Roxas ran away like he was headed toward the Old Mansion and instead ran to the other side of the building.

"He's around here somewhere.." Xigbar said.

"He mustn't no that we're here.." Saix told them.

"We know that much," Xaldin told him.

"Hey you guys. What are you three doing here?" Axel asked walking up.

"Your mission wasn't here, Axel," Saix told him.

"I just came to wonder around," Axel replied. "My mission's complete so I thought I'd look around here for Roxas. He, Xion, and I used to sit at the top of the clock tower and eat ice cream together.." Axel reminisced.

Roxas watched the four talk for awhile then turned around to leave. He stepped out from behind the building and-

"I knew we'd find you here," Luxord said, holding onto Roxas.

"Roxas!" Axel exclaimed in a surprised tone. "What are you doing here?!"

"I won't help you! You can't make me!" Roxas exclaimed struggling against Luxord's grip.

"Roxas, the only way you stay alive now is to help us again. Either way we win. You get destroyed and we get what we need. What's your choice, Roxas?"

C'mon Riku.. Show up.. Axel thought to himself.

**Xion**

She moved across the tops of buildings in Twilight Town. She had to know if Roxas and Axel were alright. She came to a stop when she saw Roxas being held by Luxord and listened.

"If I come back with you, you won't be getting anything from me! I'll destroy Kingdom Hearts for Xion! Let all those hearts free away from Xemnas and his evil intentions!" Roxas yelled.

Xion pulled her hood up and held it so that it wouldn't fall back. She walked back and ran onto the roof of the building that Roxas was next to. She cleared her throat and made it sound a bit deeper. "Let him go."

"Who are you?" Saix asked, looking up at her.

Xion thought quickly and decided to answer in a riddle. "I am somebody that is nobody."

"That doesn't make sense.." Xigbar told her.

"Let the boy go and no one gets hurt," she told him, summoning her keyblade.

"You're a keyblade wielder?"

She nodded. "It is none of your business who I really am. Just know that Roxas is important and that if you destroy him, the world shall end." She was making all this up off the top of her head but, at least it would get them to listen.

"Do we look like we care?"

Xion quickly moved and knocked Luxord out, grabbed Roxas, and ran toward the Old Mansion.

"Who are you and why are you saving me?" Roxas asked in awe.

"An old friend.. "

Axel followed them and ran into the forest.

"They may hide out there. Tell Xemnas that we'll try tomorrow," Saix told them, leaving through a dark portal.

Well, that's it! X3 I'm sorry for this being so late! Got caught up reading Kingdom Hearts wikipedia pages! Do you guys think I should bring in Aqua and Ventus from the Birth by Sleep game? Well, read and review! X3
