The Italics are her dreams, flash backs and journal entries

Onto the story~

Kextia slept pretty well that night. Just twisting and turning a little in her sleep, but she wasn't sure what she was dreaming about, the images flew by so fast, that she she couldn't focus on one long enough to know what it was. She squinted and groaned slightly as she slept.

"What should we do?" a person said. Her eyes were closed, and couldn't open them. "I don't know.. she seems fine.. surprisingly" one said. The other chuckled. "Yea, she's a little fighter" a hint of a smile could be heard in the voice.

Another image goes by in her head. 'Who was that?' she thought vaguely as she slept.

Laughing could be heard as two girls and a boy ran with her around a field. "Come on _. Keep up" the boy smiled. She giggled at him, chasing them through the field. "Hey, wait up!" she yelled with a smile.

Yet another image flew by her vision. 'Where was I? who were they? what were we doing?' she questioned in her thoughts.

Demyx woke early that morning, hearing her groans and yawned. He stood up and rubbed his back. "I hate sleeping on the floor.." he complained. He looked over at Kextia and smiled a bit. "Heh, she's dreaming" he told himself quietly. 'Should I wake her up? she might be late if I don't..' he thought. He didn't want her getting in trouble her first day. He fiddled with his finger's, looking from her, to the door.

He heard an opening of a portal and whipped around, "Hey, this is my room, you can't just.. hey..." he looked around, but didn't see anyone. He turned around to see an upside-down Xigbar grinning at him. "Morning Demyx" he said. Demyx jumped and yelped. He then glared at Xigbar with his turquoise eyes. "You can't just barge into my room, Xigbar" he said. Giving him a lighter glare, but still there. "As if.. this is where the newbie lives for now. Meaning, I have a right to enter" Xigbar grinned.

Kextia stirred, hearing Demyx's yelp and the talking. Xigbar grinned, still being upside-down, being a few inches from her face. "Morning~" he grinned at her. Kextia blinked, then got wide eyed, jumping and scrambling out of bed and landed on the floor on other side. "Oow~" she groaned. Xigbar chuckled, Demyx sighed with a half smile, and went over to help her up. "He does that... a lot.." Demyx told her sheepishly. She took his hand and stood up, rubbing the back of her head. "Mmm.." she groaned. Surprisingly, her hood was still up and she still felt it hard to talk.

She looked around tiredly. Then turned to Xigbar with a slight glare, not seen under her hood. She had forgotten what she had been dreaming about after the sudden awakening of the Free Shooter. 'Were those my memories?' she thought. She tapped her head in thought. She couldn't remember. She sighed and turned back to them. They were looking at her, quite curiously. Xigbar with his arms crossed, still upside-down, and Demyx raising an eyebrow at her. She shrugged in a, 'What?' kind of way. "Dude, you like.. zoned out or something" Xigbar spoke up. He put his feet on the ground and raised an eyebrow at her as well. She shook her head with a half a smile as she walked over to Xigbar. Looking up at him, she made a movement with her head, indicating she was ready to go. He grinned and nodded. "See ya later, Demyx" Xigbar said with a wave behind him as he walked to the door with Kextia.

As the week went by. Xigbar walked her through the rules, what was ok, and was not ok. Gave her a tour of the castle, showing her where everything was and how everything works.

Every time they'd come back to rest/hang out in the Grey Room, he'd share teases to her about the other member's that amused her. After awhile, she was slowly regaining her voice as she could also speak of some teases on them and joking back and forth about things around the castle.

Every night that she would come back to her bunk buddies room to rest and write in her journal about her day, she was greeted with his beautiful music playing on his Sitar. As she would write, she would hum to it sometimes, liking whatever tune he'd play. Sometimes she'd go to bed before him, just to fall asleep to his playing. He didn't mind, he rather liked it that someone showed interest in his music for once.

Over the past week. I'v learned quite a lot, I think.. I don't know what's ahead, but it shouldn't be to hard. Right? I heard they are almost done with my room. Though. I don't know if I want to switch.. I rather like it in here. Music every time I come back and a rather nice welcome. Oh well, I'll get used to it, and it's not like I can't ever visit. So, I guess it's not so bad.

Amazing how writing things down can make you think clearer...

I'm starting to get more of my voice back now. I can do some chit-chat when Xigbar and I go back to the Grey Room to relax, so, that's a plus. I'm starting to get used to everyone a bit more, though.. still not entirely sure about taking off my hood yet.. I don't know, it's all still new to me and I don't want them seeing my face? Oh well..

But to sum it all up. Not bad for my first week in.. Organization XIII I think it's called... I'm horrible with names I guess.

Kextia closed her journal and looked over at Demyx. He was still playing his Sitar like always.

"How can you play that so much? don't you get tired of it after awhile?" she asked him. She stood up and walked over to the bed. He shrugged. "No. It's just.. one of the things I like to do on my off time." he told her, glancing up at her for a moment before going back to playing.

"Oh.." she said calmly.

"Why?"

"No reason.."

"Uh-huh.. then... can I ask you a question?"

Kextia looked puzzled but nodded. "Sure. Shoot" she said, sitting on the bed and looking at him.

"Well.. why do you wear your hood all the time? you haven't took it off since you'v been here" he asked her curiously. She shrugged. "I don't know.. just not used to you all enough to reveal myself yet? I guess.." she told him with a stretch. Demyx smirked. "But you are 'used' to me. Aren't you? Just take it off" he smiled. She looked at him like he was asking her to take her cloak off. "No.. I'm good..." she told him. Demyx stood up and started to walk over to her. She stood as well and backed away from him. "Come on~ Please?" Demyx asked her, almost begging. "No." she stated in a rather stern tone. Demyx raised his hands up in defeat. "Ok, ok. Fine.." he said, half a smile on his face. "Thank you." she said.

She started to walk past him. As she did so, he lifted his hand and pulled her hood off, turning toward her quickly. She stopped in her tracks and tried to fumble for her hood, but it was way to late. Demyx looked at her and blinked. She shifted her weight to one leg and crossed her arms, giving up on putting her hood back up. "What?" she asked him in, what sounded to be, an annoyed tone. He shook his head a little and scratched the back of his head. "Nothing.. just that... I don't know why'd you want to wear the hood, when.." he paused. She raised an eyebrow at him. "When.. what?" she asked him. She started to put her hood back up. If she didn't know any better, she'd think he was blushing. "When.. you're kinda... pretty.." he told her, looking at the ground. She stopped and let her hood fall back down again. "Seriously? well.. thank you." she said.

There was a few moments silence of them not looking at each other. Then Kextia spoke up. "Well.. it's getting late. And I don't know what will be on my plate for tomorrow, so.. night" she said. She walked over to the bed and got comfortable in it. "Sorry if that sounded wrong.. or something... just sayin' the truth" he admitted. She smiled a little under the blankets. "Thank you, Demyx" she smiled. Demyx walked to his makeshift bed on the floor and smiled. "No problem." he replied before also getting 'comfortable' in his makeshift bed.

"So.. you think she'll be ready to practice on Friday?" a girls voice said. "I think so. She just needs rest" a soft female voice said. It felt familiar to her, really familiar. Like she knew the person very well. "Ok. Let her know I came by when she wakes up? please and thank you" the girl said. Footsteps could be heard running off. "Hmmhm, I will" the softer female voice said.

Who are they? I know those voices.. who are they? Kextia thought as she slept.

She felt a hand on her forehead, petting her forehead. "Hm, _, everyone's worried about you.. but I know you'll be ok. My little fighter" the soft female voice said. She felt lips kiss her forehead, then the sound of footsteps walking away from her.

"Mm..." she groaned in her sleep. Demyx was already awake and reorganizing things in his room. He didn't have any missions that day.

He looked over at Kextia as she started to wake up. He smiled and walked over to her. "Dreaming again? everyday.. you seem to be dreaming of something.. unpleasant. Am I right?" the Nocturne asked her. She sat up and looked at him. "Uhh.. well, not really 'unpleasant'... just confusing.. I think they're dreams of my past as a Somebody.. but every time someone says my name.. it like, blocks it out, or something..." she told him. She stared at the bed for a moment before shaking her head lightly and looking back at him. "Well.. you're still new, so maybe they'll be clearer later?" he said to her. She half smiled and sighed. "I guess you're right."

"So.. what do I have to do today?" she asked him. She got out bed and went to brush her hair. "Well, you need to report to Saix for what's next.." he told her, rather sheepishly. "The blue haired one with the creepy wave that he gives off?" she asked as she brushed her hair. Demyx chuckled at her. "Haha, yea, him" he smiled. Kextia put her brush down and smiled calmly. "Ok then. I'll be back later" she told him as she opened a portal and started to walk through it while waving. He waved back at her. "See ya" he said. He sat down on his bed and lied back a bit. "Ahh~ soft.." he whispered to himself. He summoned his Sitar and started to strum away on it, playing a rather 'happy' and calm note.

Kextia walked out of the portal right if front of the Grey Room. She took a breath and walked in. Xigbar and Luxord were sitting on a couch, apparently trying to think of what to do. Zexion was sitting in a chair, reading his Lexicon and Larxene was sitting in another chair, messing around with her throwing daggers. As Kextia walked past her, the Nymph grinned, sending a slight shiver down Kextia spine. 'Whatever she's thinking... it better not have to do with me..' Kextia thought to herself.

Kextia approached the black coated man. He had long, frayed blue hair framing his face, though slicked back in wild spikes at the top. Behind, it reaches down to his mid-back and is cut slightly neater. An X-shaped scar between his yellow eyes that extends to about halfway up his forehead and to just under his eyes. And has single studded earring on each pointed ear.

Kextia bowed slightly, getting a ever so slight smirk out of him. He rather appreciated how formal she acted around her higher ups. "Kextia. Today you will be learning about missions and your weapon. This will help you in further missions and training" Kextia nodded in response, "Ok" He turned his head toward Xigbar. "Xigbar, will be accompanying you on this 'test' mission today." Xigbar looked over at him by hearing his name. He stood up and walked over to them, "Alright, will do." the Free Shooter told him. He looked at Kextia and smirked.

"I'm not slowing down for ya, kid"

"Who said you had to?" she smirked right back at him. Xigbar chuckled. Saix looked at them, almost quizzically. "Let me know when you two are ready to go" Saix told them, his normal squint on his face.

He walked back over to the window with his arms crossed, looking around the room. Xigbar and Kextia watched and nodded.

Xigbar looked back down at Kextia. "So, you ready or what?" he asked her. She shrugged, "I suppose so. Lets go" she told him. He nodded and followed her over to Saix. "I'm ready" she told him. Saix nodded and opened a portal to their destination. "Proceed then" Saix told them. Xigbar and Kextia nodded and walked through the portal.

They walked out of the portal to a tunnel looking place. The floor was brown/gold, the walls were a dull gold color, high ceilings, and everything seemed lit up in a way. For a tunnel like place, you could see quite well.

Kextia looked around her, then up at Xigbar. "Where are we?" she asked him, curiously. He looked down at her. "We're in Twilight Town. This place is where I found you, well.. not here... but the forest outside of town." He told her, looking back on the memory. "You mean, where you kidnapped me?" she smirked. He looked at her, rather sternly. "As if.. I don't 'kidnap' I recruit..." he looked away from her. She chuckled softly. "Mhm.. I'm just messin' with ya.. you basically saved me anyway. If you wouldn't have shown up, who know's what could have happened to me.." she looked up at an entrance.

There was silence for a few moments. Then Xigbar spoke up. "So.. I see you finally took your hood off" he smirked. Kextia shrugged. "Yea.. I think that I'm used to you guys enough now to show my face. I just didn't want to show my identity in front of Nobodies I didn't know.. completely I guess" she told him. He nodded, "Weird.. but ok" he replied.

He cleared his throat and walked to the middle of the area. "Alright. Now, I'm supposed to explain to you how missions work and.. how to teach you to summon your weapon" he explained to her. She nodded in response and tilted her head. "I can summon a weapon?" she questioned. "Yea. You see.. like this..." he said. He raised his left hand, and as he swung it down, with a flash of light purple light, a purple gun looking weapon appeared in his hand. He repeated this in his right hand. Kextia observed him with her hand on her chin.

Xigbar rested the right gun on his shoulder and smirked. "Now you try it" he told her. She looked a little taken aback and just looked at her right hand. She put her right hand out in front of herself. Nothing happened and she retracted her hand. Xigbar shook his head, "Try to imagine it's in your hand.." he told her. She put her hand out in front of herself again. Closing her eyes and trying to imagine the feel of a weapon in her hand. With a small flash of green light and small swirling leaves, there was indeed a weapon in her hand. She looked at it curiously, it was a Naginata, 3 1/2 foot long handle, and 1 1/2 to 2 foot long blade. The handle was black, the grip ribbon was a blood red, the two ends had a Nobody like symbol parts on them, two arrow looking ones under the blade, and three at the bottom, colored black and darker grey and the blade was black and darker grey.

Xigbar grinned. "Nice choice" he told her. She looked at him, rather curiously. "But I didn't even think about what it was.." she told him. He chuckled slightly and made his weapons disappear. "You don't have to. It just kinda knows what you'd use" he told her, walking closer to her. "What is.. 'it'?" she asked. He shook his head with a sigh. "You ask quite a lot of questions, don't you?" he said, rubbing the back of his neck. ".. I guess so.." she replied. "Not saying it's bad, just don't start stickin' your questions at something you know you shouldn't know" he told her. She looked a little confused, but nodded.

"Alright, so what you do on mission's, is.. well... what you're told. Say you have to take out Heartless, you do that.. ah, I'll just show ya. We'll be sitting here forever in explaining.." he told her. She just listened to him, a little confused. "Follow me." he told her. She nodded and did so.

As they walked up three big step looking platforms, he pointed deeper into the tunnels. "One thing, you have to be aware. Us being who we are, you have to be stealthy, try not to be seen, and if you're not, you could possibly just miss what you're looking for all together." he told her. She nodded in response.

"Now, a little test.. I hid a chest in these tunnels somewhere, and I want you to go find it" he told her with a slight smirk. She tilted her head. "But we just got here, how did you..?" she started. "That's the beauty of having, one, the power over space, and basically gravity. Two, the wonders of dark portals" he grinned. "Uh-huh.. well, shouldn't be to hard. I'll find it in no time" she told him. He nodded and stood aside for her to pass him. She did so and walked deeper into the tunnels. After some rights, lefts and some circling. She found the chest and opened it to revel a Potion. She took it and put it in her pocket and turned back to Xigbar, who followed her.

"Not bad.." he stretched. She smiled a little. "It only took you, what.. a half hour?" he teased. She glared at him playfully. "Ah ha, ah ha. Funny.. you know this is my first time, and I'm not familiar with the place.." she explained. "Relax, I'm just pushin' your buttons. Can't really do that with Larxene without getting electrified" he chuckled. "Hmm, I guess you're right.. wait, wait, not saying I'll let you so easily, though" Kextia smirked. Xigbar raised an eyebrow at her. "Is that right? heh, you're just as feisty as when I first found you" he shook his head with a grin. "I.. barely remember that day... but I know what happen, just the speech escapes me.. a little..." she told him. "Uh-huh. Well, you were pretty feisty when I first found you, to be honest" he said with a grin and rubbing the back of his neck. "Is that so.. hmm... interesting.." she put her hand on her chin. He shrugged. "I guess. But, now that you completed this little test, we can leave" he told her. She nodded, and started to walk back.

On the way back to the portal, she had question's about the day he found her, how she acted, where she was and such. 'How could a kid have so many question's?' Xigbar thought.

Once they made there way back to the portal, he stopped her before they entered. She turned and looked up at him. "Now, one more thing.. you wont always just be looking around for stuff... actually.. I think you're going to have more fighting missions then recon.." he explained. She tilted her head slightly at him. "What would I have to fight?" she asked him curiously. "Well, there's these creatures called 'Heartless', but, we leave most of them to Roxas.." Xigbar explained. Just as she opened her mouth to ask yet another question, he started to push her into the portal, smiling slightly with a sigh. "That's all I'm sayin', kid" he said.

Kextia and Xigbar walked out of the portal and into the Grey Room. Kextia stretched and walked up to Saix, checking in that she and Xigbar came back, then walked over to a couch and sat down while Xigbar plopped himself down next to her and put his hands behind his head.

"So.. what do ya think so far?" he asked her conversationally. She shrugged, "It's.. interesting. The new worlds is going to take time to get used to, I'm wondering what Heartless are and what they look like and... curious of our goal.." she trailed off. He looked over at her. "Sounds simple enough. Are you.. 'nervous' about fighting the Heartless?" he smirked. She looked at him with a slight glare. "You're funny. You know better. And even if I did have emotions, I wouldn't be" she told him, looking back at the table in front of them. "Mm, so.. you're a fighter, huh?" Kextia perked up and stared at the wall as a memory flashed.

"...My little fighter" a soft voice said.

Kextia blinked and looked at him, "Uh.. yea... I guess so.." she said. He raised an eyebrow at her, "You ok, kid?" he asked her. She put on a smile and looked at him, "Yea, I'm fine, I think I'm just tired.. I'll see ya later" she told him as she stood up and opened a portal. "Night" she said as she walked through the portal waving. He waved, "Night, kiddo" he said.

'I remembered.. is it coincidence?' she thought.

She walked out of the portal and sighed. She walked over to the desk and started to write in her journal.

Well, rather good day today. I think. I learned what missions are, I know I have a weapon I can summon. Xigbar taught me how to summon it. And now, I am so curious as to what Heartless are, what Organization XIII's goal is, and.. my past... Ah well, they'll.. well two of them... will be answered either it be tomorrow or another day.

I don't know what I'm going to do tomorrow, but I'm sure it wont be too different from today. Right?

Well, I guess that's all for now, other then I'm finally walking around without my hood now. Demyx took it off, and now.. I don't know, I just think it's ok for it to be off now.

Anyway, that's all for now I think, more tomorrow.

Kextia sighed. She closed her journal and stood up with a yawn and walked over to the bed to see Demyx holding papers with musical notes and lyrics on them and, from what it looked like, his Sitar before it disappeared by not being used.

Kextia smiled, "Now, where am I going to slee- wait.." she put her hand on her chin, looking from the bed to Demyx's makeshift bed. "I can't... and if I sleep there, he'll get in trouble.." She bit her lip a little. "Hm..and he must have fallen asleep playing his Sitar..." she chuckled a little.

She let her hand down and looked at him. She shook her head, took the papers he was holding and put them on the desk, then covered him up. She looked around the room, then out the window at the night's sky. It was always night, and that interested her. She then slipped under the covers of the bed and lied down gently next to him, trying not to disturb him. She lied her head down quite a few inches from his, though there wasn't much room on the one person bed. She smiled and closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.
