Nobody's Thoughts
Chapter 2
Sora was in the castle now, she could feel it. He had faced Marluxia and was beginning to understand what this place really was, a place to reclaim the memories buried deep within the heart. Or so he thought. Bit by bit, Namine focused on rewriting his background memories. Nothing would feel different unless he really looked. For now anyways, she was still just in the shadows.
But if he thought hard enough, wouldn't he remember a third best friend? One who had been there when he was a child, someone who had to go away, someone who he protected? Some one important. She smiled to herself as she drew. She was going to be important to someone. For the first time in her very short and miserable life, someone would care. Even if it was just a lie, it was enough. Very soon, he would be able to say her name. To think back and recall the girl who was always drawing, the quiet blonde who he swore to protect.
A tear rolled down her face and dripped onto her sketch pad. She knew what she was doing was wrong, she could clearly see that. But another part of her wanted this. Wanted that person who would give anything to make sure she was ok. No one would though, not on their own. So she kept drawing, rewriting Sora's heart. Writing herself into it, becoming someone who was wanted.
Through her tears, she laughed. Wanted. She was only wanted her because of her abilities. She was certain that, once Sora was his, Marluxia would kill her. Larxene had taunted her enough with that promise.
"Maybe not," she thought to herself. What if Sora won? What if the strength of the heart of the Keyblade Master was too much for the group of Nobodies? Would she finally be with someone who cared then? What if they just stayed in this Castle, together, forever? A prison wouldn't be a prison if she had someone to share it with.
She shook her head. No, Sora would lose. Because, very soon, he was going to lose his light. He would forget Kairi, and Namine would be all he knew. A false light was just an empty void. Just like the heart she would never have, false and empty. She was dooming Sora to the same fate. But she had no choice.
She kept drawing.
I know the word count has been a little low these past two chapters but I'm pretty much taking every cut scene in Re: Chain of Memories that Namine is in and using those to inspire my writing. So far they've been about 5 seconds long, but they get longer soon! Thanks for reading and please, tell me what you think!
