Chapter 2 New Life
I do not own anything.
Roxas slowly opened his eyes when he showed signs of waking up. As he got up, he put his hand to his head trying to remember what happened.
!
That's right! He was washed up at the beach and then he recalled a woman in a lab coat rescuing him. He looked around the room trying to figure out where he was. The room around him was white and he was lying on the bed with machines which showed monitors with strange letters and screens.
Based on the layout on the room it looks like a patient's room for a clinic. He looked down at himself and noticed he was wearing a gown. He looked inside and immediately frown. He is wearing nothing but a gown. He looked around frantically for his clothes in the room but nothing not even his black coat wasn't here.
Roxas looked down thinking about his current situation. One, he managed to land into a new world that he's never been before. Two, he almost drowned but was rescued by the woman who came to him when he got washed up at the beach.
"Maybe I should wait for her to come here. I need to know where I am first."
Roxas muttered as he looked at the window. The nobody noticed that it was night time. He was in awe when he saw the beautiful city lights blinking from the buildings like the stars in the sky. He smiled to himself seeing such a peaceful sight.
His admiring sight was caught off when the door opened. He turned to the door and saw a woman in a lab coat. He looked more closely to get a better look of his savior.
The woman had red hair with blue eyes and was wearing a red blouse under her lab coat. She smiled relieved seeing her patient had woken up. She grew curious as looked at the boy. She already can tell that this individual wasn't from Earth since she looked up at the records of people living on Earth. Not to mention, the black coat she analyzed was made from a material that wasn't made in any other galaxy or if anything from the universe. She hoped she can get some answers from this boy.
"I see that my patient has woken up." She smiled as she walked to him. Looking for a place to sit, she saw a stool and placed it on the side on the bed.
"So how are you feeling? Any headaches?" She asked as she sat down. Roxas looked down at himself then at the doctor.
"I feel fine. Thank you." He answered. "Can you tell me who you are and where I am?"
"My name is Ryoko Mikado. I'm an underground doctor. What about you?"
"Roxas."
She raised an eyebrow. "No surname?" The nobody shook his head. "Well, Roxas. As for where we are, we're in my clinic on Sainan Town, in a country called Japan on a planet called Earth."
"Earth? That's the name of this world?" Ryoko nodded.
"Ryoko, how did you find me? I didn't think there would be anyone else out there on the beach."
The doctor answered. "I have a device that tracks down anything that comes and goes in this world in or out. Just a few hours ago, it picked up a strange object that was falling towards the beaches. When I went to see what the object is. I found a marooned boy washed up in the beach." She smiled wryly.
Roxas blushed in embarrassment. Then his thoughts went back into Ryoko having a device that can track down objects that go in and out of this world. How can objects go in and out of this world? Don't they have barriers that separate each world to each other? Roxas shook his head.
He has too many questions into his mind. Maybe if he can get some answers on how this world works from Ryoko.
"So mind telling me why you're here?" Roxas turned to Ryoko. "How did you end up in this planet and what kind of alien are you?"
Roxas swallowed nervously at the sudden questions trying to come up with a good answer. He wanted to tell her honestly but….
How can he tell the doctor that he ended up here because he was dragged out of the dream world of his Somebody and ended up in his Dive into the Heart and finally landing here?
Moreover, if he told her that he was a Nobody, a leftover of someone who had once lost his heart leaving him with no heart or no memories?
Roxas then went with this one. "I'm sorry Ryoko but with all due respect I can't."
"Why not?"
"It's kind of hard to explain."
Ryoko looked at him skeptically. Then she ask another question.
"Then did you come to this world for hostile intentions for this planet?" She asked with narrowed eyes.
Roxas' eyes widened and raised his hands in defense. "What?! No!"
"Then why are you here?" The nurse asked crossing her arms. The Nobody looked down thinking about his wish and looked at the nurse with serious eyes. "I'm just looking for a place to find as my home."
That look Ryoko saw in Roxas' eyes made her widen. It was filed with pain and wanting to find a new home. She's seen that look in all the newcomers who's home planets were down sized, caught by war, destroyed, and famine. It seems she encountered another alien who wanted to find a new home on Earth.
Ryoko smiled at him and offered Roxas, "Then, Roxas would you like to find a new home here on Earth?" Roxas eyes widen at the tempting offer then he looked down. "Can you really do that?"
The doctor nodded her head." Of course it's my job as an undergound doctor to provide homes for newcomers from other planets." Roxas felt grateful to this kind woman.
"Thank you…um can I ask you something?"
"What is it?" The nurse with a raised brow.
"What's an underground doctor?" The nurse blinked and giggled and happily explained her job and what this world is filled with.
Roxas widened his eyes at the answers and shook in shock. This was the day when Roxas found a home in this new world with different rules which were hard to comprehend.
A few months later
Roxas Mikado slowly woke up from his bed and sat up on his bed. He shook his head from the drowsiness. "Another dream about her." He muttered as he recalled the dreams he's been having.
Lately he's been having these dreams about a girl which looked like the silhouette from his Dive into the Heart. The dreams were about him doing missions together while they were in Organization XIII, laughing together with Axel eating Sea-Salt Ice Cream, and that she can wield the Keyblade just like he can. The most important thing though was that girl's name: Xion.
He shook his head out his thoughts and turned to the window close to his bed and opened the window. He smiled at the sunrise that reflected off the buildings of Sainan Town. After admiring of a new day, he turned around and got off his bed to take a shower.
After that, he went to his closet, he looked at the school uniform he was about to wear. He kinda didn't like the colors and design but he'll have to put up with it. Just as he got his set, he noticed his black coat was hanging in the back. He stared at it for a moment and then sighed. He immediately grabbed it and put it in another backpack for purposes which will possibly happened later. He grabbed his school bag and the latter then went downstairs to prepare breakfast.
His mom cooks but not as talented as her adopted son. Roxas was a quick learner. Just by reading books on multiple subjects on this planet made him knowledgeable in many things. He needed it since he was attending school where his mom works.
He still can't believe the nurse Ryoko Mikado decided to adopt him because when he originally planned on finding a job and get an apartment but she couldn't stand this strange boy getting himself into too much work. Plus she always wanted a son despite the fact she didn't have a boyfriend or husband but could if she wanted to and also he caught her interest in him.
He was taken aback at her proposal but she felt insisted on it since she couldn't let a fifteen year old like him living on his own. Who knows what kind of troubles an alien newcomer like Roxas who lacks the procedures and traditions as well as the systems that work on Earth. Roxas understood immediately about that since worlds have their own systems and rules.
That is when Roxas had Mikado as his last name. Finally, there was his education. Here on Earth or rather the country, Japan teens around Roxas' age have to go to school. Thanks to his mother, Ryoko he was able to attend a school called Sainan High due to the doctor's nursing school job there.
Roxas was nervous about it since he was new to the language not to mention the general education like reading, math, as well as writing. He had a hard time with it for the first month but manage to get the hanging of it thanks to his mom and his friends.
However, what made Roxas want to go to school is the friends he made. He managed to make a connection to them due to common interests and he was able to learn a lot about this world.
In this world, the people here are actually weak compared to the foes Roxas have met. He knew that they wouldn't put up a fight against otherworldly foes like the Heartless if they decided to invade for feeding off the people's hearts. He knew that as a Keyblade wielder he'll have to protect it. That's why he's training his Keyblade skills and magic to get stronger and improve on his magic.
His new Keyblade, Two Become One was a very powerful one. This new key improves both on strength and magic also with its unique ability of light and darkness. He was able to use his power over light a lot more effect. The weapon suits work him more effectively when he uses it solo and it can also work well with the oblivion and oathkeeper keyblades depending on what style he needs. For techniques, he can use the oblivion and two become one and magic when he also dual wields with oathkeeper.
His techniques and magic also improve thanks to receiving Sora's memories this time after his rebirth. He was able to use new spells like Reflect, Gravity, Magnet, Stop and more also magic-based techniques like Magnet Burst and Tornado. He's currently working on his spells that can reach the -za stage hoping for more options since his past aggressive style had a lot of weak points thanks to his fight with Riku. Roxas also learned new Strike Raid moves like Reflect Raid and Circle Raid as well as elemental raids in his training.
As Roxas was finished preparing his bento for him and his mom, heard a sound. He turned and then his face turned a few shades of red. Why? The sight that sputtered the Nobody was his mother Ryoko Mikado wearing nothing but her lacy underwear and lab coat.
"Good morning, Roxas." Ryoko yawned as she rubbed the drowsiness out of her eye. She noticed her son's head turned focusing on his cooking. Noticing his red face, she let out a coy smile getting used to her son's reaction to her current state of dress. That's because she's been doing this after she adopted him. Roxas' blushing face was practically cute.
"Mom, do you have to always show up in the morning dressing up like that?" Roxas deadpanned to her. Ryoko smiled "I sleep this way and plus since I had so many patients last night I didn't have time to change once I went to sleep."
Roxas deadpanned at that excuse. Why? Because that was the same excuse she used every time and this happens every morning!
"Just think about that you have a son with hormones. You maybe my mom but your appearance is starting to…..distract me." He muttered turning to his cooking. The doctor giggled. "Alright, but this gives me hope that you might go for Yui-chan." Roxas sighed as Ryoko pointed out one of his friends.
"Mom, Yui and I are not like that. We're just friends." He pointed out. At this Ryoko sighed.
Sometimes her son can be so dense with girls yet then again said girl would deny her feelings towards Roxas whenever she teases her every time she visits the clinic to study. She even met her parents with both kind of hoping Yui can settle down with her first love or possibly her only love since she considers all boys shameless yet she's kind of shameless with her love for cats.
Mikado then shook her head. "Never mind that. You still have school to do and you have your friends to hang out with."
At the word friends Roxas smiled at that, since coming to school he made plenty of friends. Some were nice while the rest were kind of annoying but he cherished them all the same after all they were truly real unlike his other friends in the data created Twilight Town.
As the family finished eating, they went to Mikado's car and drove all the way to Sainan High. It was a big school which consist of the game fields and the buildings that represent them. As the car went to the parking lot, the mother and son walked to the front gate. There they see a group of students heading to the school building to their shoe lockers. The students and teachers greeted Roxas and Mikado Good Morning. The duo also greeted back. This was the usual routine that happens every morning and for the Nobody he liked it. Knowing that everyone you existed, being treated like a Somebody was the best feeling he have. He actually liked going to school.
When the Mikados entered the main hall after Roxas changed his shoes. Mikado turned to her son.
"Okay Roxas. I want you to pay attention in class and also don't get into too much trouble okay?" Mikado chided her son. Roxas can sighed at this and answered. "Mom, I know you always told this every day."
The nurse just smiled. "All right, just reminding you." She waved to her son goodbye and turned to the nurse's office.
Roxas watched his mom walk away and turned around going to his class. This was one of the daily routines he does in this new life.
A/N: Sorry it took so long but I had worries in real life like college and finding a job but now I'm job searching and doing my best to type and write this chapter. Sorry it's short but I'll do the best in my abilities to make this work and hopefully improve.
