Chapter 2

From Nobody to Somebody

Hey, here's chapter 2.

Thank you for your revews. (Both of them)

And there's the disclaimer.

I still don't own the group. I kind of own Demyx's Somebody/Other. Or at least the theory of where he lives. I'm probably the only one who's thought this. And onto the chapter.


"Aerith, I have someone with me. He's injured." Sora pulled Demyx's limp form in with Goofy and Donald's help.

"Who do you…Oh my. Where did you find him?" Aerith was practically beside herself with worry as she checked Demyx's vitals.

"I had to fight him. He said he had to, but he didn't want to." Sora explained. He stared at Demyx for several minutes. "Why? If he's a Nobody, why would he act like he had feelings?"

"He looks like someone I knew from Midgar. In fact…" Aerith trailed off, pushing some hair out of Demyx's face.

"Hey, I'm back," someone called from the door. It was Cloud Strife.

"Ah, Cloud. Back here! I'm with a patient. You're not going to believe who it is!" she called back.

"Well, who is it?" Cloud asked as he walked through the doorway. He stood in shock as he stared at Demyx. "Myde?" he asked, taking slow steps to the bed where Demyx lay. "It is Myde."

"I thought so. I was told of him a few times and he's in one of your pictures, so I thought you'd like to see him again." She checked Demyx's pulse once more and nodded, satisfied with the results.

"Um, Aerith, he said he had some kind of disease that was killing him and the whole time we fought, he was coughing up blood." Sora looked at Aerith, concerned for the ex-Nobody.

"Well, that sounds like an extremely bad case of tuberculosis, but there's nothing now, so he should be fine. We just have to wait for him to wake up." Aerith smiled. "It might be a bit, but he should be fine. You did say he was a Nobody, right?"

"A-hyuk, he did. The Nobody said his name was Demyx," Goofy said. Donald grumbled something but no one really understands him anyway, so it doesn't really matter. "He really didn't want to fight us. He seemed really reluctant to and talked, well, sorta, but he talked to us, and called Donald here a 'poor, misinformed little duck', which was kinda funny."

Aerith laughed at Donald's reaction, and Cloud was Cloud, indifferent to almost everything.

"What the hell's so funny in here?" a gruff voice yelled from the porch.

"Cid, would you please not yell when there are patients in the Medical Center?" Aerith admonished.

"Sorry. Like I said, what the hell's so funny?" Cid Highwind came strolling in through the door, pack of cigarettes in hand and toothpick in his mouth.

Aerith had had enough of him smoking in there so one day she 'borrowed' Cloud's sword and shredded the cigarette Cid had in his mouth. She had then proceeded to destroy the pack in his pocket. Suffice to say, Cid didn't smoke near the Medical Center anymore. Also, whenever he was around Aerith, he ate toothpicks.

"Hey, that's Vince's kid. Isn't his name Myde or something? Who found'm?" Cid asked.

"Sora had to fight him, and he was a Nobody." Aerith stared at Myde a little longer; just to make sure he was really real. "I wonder what happened to him."

"Ah, Aer, don't worry, the kid'll be fine. He's tougher than he looks; he's a stubborn little Turk, that's fer sure." Cid was telling the truth. Demyx was a musician, but Myde had been a Turk and was proud to be.

Cid didn't know as much about Myde as he had Vincent, but he had liked the black-haired kid well enough to worry about him when the darkness overcame the planet. There was just something about the boy that Cid liked, but he wasn't sure what it was.

Anyway, back to the story.

"He was a 'Turk'?" Goofy asked right as Sora asked, "What's a Turk?"

"A Turk is one of an elite group," Cloud explained. "Myde had been one when I worked there. He was a mischievous punk." Cloud paused. "What?"

Sora was looking at him in awe. "That's the most I've ever seen you talk." His lackeys (Yes, they're lackeys.) nodded in awed agreement.

"Anyway boys, he'll probably wake up in the next day or so, so why don't you all go help Leon?" Aerith said in a spooky voice. It wasn't that it was spooky or anything, it was how she said it that got the men out of the Medical Center and to the other side of town in approximately ten minutes. She smirked lightly and returned her attention to Demyx "Hey, kiddo, wake up soon, okay? Things are going to get a little hairy around here soon and we'll need your help."

The only answer Aerith got in return was a slight shift in position. She smiled lightly again and pulled a sheet over Demyx and went to go start supper.


Okay, another chapter, another mystery. What's Demyx going to be like when he wakes up? Will he even be Demyx or will he be Myde? That's for another chapter.

This chapter pretty much wrote itself. Its also shorter than the first chapter. I'm trying, I'm trying. I'm sorry about the shortness of the chapters.

Preview: In the next chapter, we get a peek inside Demyx/Myde's mind, and who gets to be in control. Plus, we learn what the 'two most important things to my personality' bit is.

Goes to work on the next chapter and is having a hell of a time tring to write it.
