Chapter 2: The First World
AN: Hooray! The next chapter's up! Whee! I enjoyed making this one.
Disclaimer: Squeenix and Disney own this game.. I'm a Captain Obvious.
Roxas' POV:
I was flashing back from when I woke up in Sora's pod while Naminé and I used a portal to get out of Twilight Town. Naminé controlled the dark pathway, but we don't actually reckon going anywhere as a goal at all.
"Naminé, where exactly are we going?"
I never thought of getting a response for this situation. Not so long after, she stopped walking.
"Let's go here first and then we think about where we should go." She implied.
The portal opened, revealing us a world Sora had taken me into: Radiant Garden. I doubt Naminé would even know this place.
"What's this place?" She asked me.
Heh, how many times have I been right before?
Naminé's POV:
This place is kind of.. clean. Like, no-darkness kind of clean. I liked it. I even feel this place as home by the time I stepped here.
"We're in Hollow Bastion, but I'd prefer calling this place Radiant Garden. You okay with that?" Roxas said, making sure.
"Well, now that I know the names of this place, we can call it with either of them."
"Radiant Garden it is." Roxas suggested happily.
Radiant Garden.. what a beautiful name. Wait, I sensed darkness,
"Roxas, the heartless are coming!" I yelled.
Roxas is trying to prop himself for the battle and called a keyblade. I gasped when I saw the keyblade. That keyblade isn't one of his collections. It belongs to someone. It belongs to Kairi. It was Destiny Place.
"H-how did you get that?" Stuttered, I asked him.
"I don't know! This seems to be the only keyblade I can get now!" Roxas shares his confusion while having his hands full on the battle. Roxas attacks the heartless from left to right. I shield myself helplessly using my sketchbook and with him guarding me. The heartless finally disappeared. After I made sure that the heartless were all gone, I thanked him.
"No need to thank me, Naminé. I didn't want you to get hurt. I've always wanted to protect you anyways." He replied.
I smiled at him and then we continue going on our journey. We arrived at the Marketplace of this town, at least he mentioned. We decided to go around this world. Wherever we go, we will always find heartless. Roxas would guard me and attack them at the same time and I'd just.. be there for him. Now, I feel like I interfere him in this adventure without direction, but he doesn't mind this at all. I guess he was right about him wanting to protect me from danger all along. We finally reached the Postern. Not having enough time to move on, someone's voice stopped us. Neither of us recognized that voice whatsoever. We turned around to see a group of three little floating girls.
One of them wears 80% black. Her eyes are red and her light tan-brown hair is spiky. She's like the dark and evil side of the trio. Another one symbolizes the bright side. She has an orange huge scarf around her neck. Well, her outfit is almost entirely orange. Her blonde hair is huge, too, like the size of her scarf. The looks of the other girl in front of both of them balanced the two. She has brown short hair. Surprisingly, her left eye is blue and her right is green. Her outfit has pink additional segments and many hues of blue.
"Hey, we wanna ask you something," the brown-haired one spoke, "do you know anything about a guy with black spiky hair?"
We shook our heads no at the same time. The girls sighed.
"Well, Leon told me there's something dangerous about that menacing villain. He'll even reward us with treasure if we capture him."
Roxas and I exchanged looks.
"Well, since you two lovebirds have nothing say, to-doo-loo! Thanks anywa-" Right when those three turned to leave, Roxas bursts out,
"Wait! Do you know where Sora is?" The trio turned back to us. The one in black answers,
"Sora? Haven't seen him in ages."
"I hope he's okay.." The one in orange added.
Roxas is disappointed. I think he's worried about Sora. He thanked those three little fairy-like girls,
"..Right. Thanks anyway."
Those three didn't move a muscle while we walk away. Roxas made them worry about Sora. Hm, this case of Sora missing is starting to grow. We mindlessly walk to the canyon-like pathways and reached The Great Maw, which Roxas talks about during the long walk. He tells me about how Sora fought a thousand heartless here. Now, I'm officially amazed of this legendary keyblade wielder. One thousand heartless is a lot! Before we even know our current location, we actually passed the huge space. We were set to walk on, but I suddenly don't feel good. My head hurts. I clutched it and fell down on my knees.
"Naminé! What's wrong?" He asked me with worry written all over his face.
"Memories.. overflow.. unreal.."
"Naminé!" He screamed.
The pain slowly drifts away from my head. Something in his voice did this. I wonder why, but I don't think it's significant enough to ponder about.
"I'm okay now, Roxas. Let's move on." I said, standing up and resuming the walk.
Roxas nodded and followed. I have a new ability of sensing threats ahead of time. This pain just now means that the threat ahead is a deadly one, but I don't recognize its type. The threat is not a heartless or a nobody..
What could this powerful enemy be?
To be continued..
