Twilight Town: Roxas' Room

The sun in the sky, presenting itself in a morning view shines its light into a Roxas' room, as he wakes up in his bed. Upon waking up, he looks down at his right hand, the same hand that held the mysterious sword in its grasp." A key...blade? The Kings...sword..." As Roxas was lost in his thoughts, the light from the morning sun shined brighter...

-The 2nd Day-

Twilight Town: Back Alley

Later in the afternoon, after a long day at the Military Academy, Roxas was walking towards the Usual Spot through the Back-Alley." A Keyblade..." While carrying his backpack, Roxas continued to stare at his hand...only spot a stick leaning against a wall. He then picks it up and begins to swing it around like it's a fighting weapon. After a few seconds, Roxas shrugged before tossing it away." What was that about?" He tosses it over his head and... it hits someone wearing a black cloak in the chest.

"Oh!" Roxas turns to see the person walk away and down the steps." Sorry... about that..."

Twilight Town: The Usual Spot

Roxas walks into the Usual Spot and sees Hayner, Pence, and Olette already sitting in their favorite spots and enjoying themselves some sea-salt ice cream. Hayner offers Roxas a sea-salt ice cream bar of his own." Thanks."

"...Do you guys think we'll always be together like this?" Pence asked his three friends out of somewhat concern.

Roxas sits down with his ice cream while Olette answers the question." I sure hope so."

Hayner sharply turns to face his friends." Huh? Where did that come from?"

Pence waves his hands in defense." Oh, well, you know. Just thinking out loud."

"...Well, I doubt we can be together forever. But isn't that what growing up's all about? What's important isn't how often we see each other, but how often we think about each other. Right?" Hayner said...in a strange wisdom-like manner.

Pence laughs at this before commenting," Get that off a fortune cookie?"

"That's it, no more ice cream for you!" Hayner growled." Man, today's turning out to be a drag."

"Maybe because of yesterday's memory thief." Olette commented.

"Nuh-uh. You know what it is? We don't want summer vacation to be over. That's all! So, how about this?" Hayner stands up and makes a decloration." We all go to the beach! And why do we go to the beach? Because we haven't gone once this entire school year! And let me remind you, we're literally one month away from Summer Vacation! Blue seas! Blue skies! Let's just get on the train and go!" Hayner turns to face the rest of the group with a smile...while they say nothing but stand up as well. Seeing this caused his smile to falter a bit." No? Aw, c'mon!"

The three looked at each other before Roxas spoke up." Maybe you forgot, but we're broke."

"Maybe you forgot I'm smart!" Hayner countered before he and the other two, except for Roxas(who let out a light groan), run out of the Usual Spot. After a few seconds...Pence runs back in to get Roxas.

"Hurry up, Roxas!" Pence leaves again. Roxas leaves the Usual Spot and meets up with them in the Back Alley outside.

"We're going to Market Street!" Hayner announced as the four walked on.

Twilight Town: Market Street-Station Heights

In Market Street, a young boy named Carl Clover is putting up posters for the Struggle Tournament. Carl was a young boy with light blond hair, a fair complexion, blue eyes and wears jam jar glasses. He wore the Military Academy standard male uniform, but with shorts. After putting up a poster on the wall, Carl let out a sigh before moving on to the next spot. The group arrives in Market Street and spot the poster. Hayner smiles at this and runs to it. The three join him in front of the poster.

"Just two days to go." Hayner said before turning to face Roxas." You and I have to make the finals! That way, no matter who wins, the four of us split the prize!"

Roxas smiles at this." Okay, you're on."

"You two are gonna clean up!" Pence commented.

"Go get 'em!" Olette agreed.

Roxas and Hayner make a sign of friendship with their arms." It's a promise!" After this, the four stand in a circle." Now, let's get down to business. One ticket to the beach is 900 Lien. How much for four of us?"

"3600 Lien." Olette answered.

"And 300 each to spend there. What's that for all of us?"

"1200 Lien." Olette answered." A total of 4800 Lien."

Pence puts his hands behind his head, as Roxas questions Hayner." To spend on what?"

"Pretzels, of course!" Hayner stated." What else is there?"

"Well, there's always watermelon."

Hayner shook his head." Too pricey. They're, like, 2000 Lien apiece."

"...Pretzels it is."

After this was stated, Hayner returned to the matter at hand." So, where were we?"

"We need 4800 Lien altogether." Pence said to the others." But all we have is...(he looked back in forth between his friends)I've got 800."

"...650." Olette said in disappointment.

Roxas lowered his head."...150. Sorry, Noel handles the money. Then again with how clumsy she is, I'd say it's the only thing she's good at."

Hayner counted it up in his mind and came to an answer." That's 1600 Lien! We need another 3200. Let's find ourselves some odd jobs and earn some dough! We have 'til the train leaves to earn 800 Lien each! Hayner then turns to run off." Meet at the station with cash in hand!"

Once he was gone, Pence asked the obvious question."...Didn't he say he had it covered?"

Roxas shook his head." Whatever. Those pretzels are sounding pretty good." Roxas looked over at the job-board to see who was hiring." Let's see..."

Twilight Town: Station Plaza

Several hours later...The four meet up at the Station Plaza. The afternoon sun shined down upon the four teens, all while a train was driving away from the station and into the city. Olette(who had cat scratches on her face) was counting up the Lien they had worked(off-screen!) to get. Hayner looked confiden while Roxas and Pence seemed tired(the former was covered in dust while the latter had bee stings all over his body) After a moment of silence, Hayner asked the all knowing question." All present and accounted for?"

Pence looked over at Roxas." What've we got?"

Roxas reaches into his pocket." Let's see..." He then pulls out some Lien." Just this."

Hayner sees this and folds his arms in a approving-like manner." Good job."

Roxas hands the remaining Lien over to Olette, who counts it up. She then smiles before facing the other three." Nice work, everyone. Added to what we started with, we now have..." Olette shows them the Lien pouch she made with the Lien inside of it." Tada! 5000 Lien!"

"Sweet!" Hayner cheered.

Olette gives the bag to Roxas." Let's get tickets!"

Olette and Pence run ahead into the station, while Hayner and Roxas remain behind. As the two watch on..." We can't be together forever... so we'd better make the time we do have something to remember." Hayner said in a...somewhat cryptic tone.

Roxas looks over at his friend in confusion." Huh?"

Hayner rubs his nose before chuckling." Gotcha!" Hayner jokingly punches Roxas in the stomach and joins the other three.

Roxas shakes his head in confusion before he decides to join them...SWOOSH! Only to suddenly be tripped by an invisible something, causing him to fall to the ground." Whoa!" A small stick drops to the ground. Hayner, Pence, and Olette stop. Hayner steps back a bit down the stairs. The young teen grunts slightly coming to his knees and touching his lip(which was bleeding a bit). He sees someone in a black cloak standing beside him." Huh?" The person picks Roxas off the ground and whispers something to him."...What?"

"Roxas! Three minutes!" Hayner called out to him from the Station entrance.

Roxas then turned to face the direction his friends were standing in." Okay!" The teenager looks back to the figure...only to notice that they were gone. After a moment of thinking, he decides to catch up to his friends in the station.

Inside the station, Roxas stood near the door while Pence and Olette were waiting behind their 'responsible' leader. Hayner bends at the teller and holds out four fingers." Four students!" Hayner said with a confident smile on his face.

Pence turned to face Roxas, who still had the pouch." Roxas, the money!"

Roxas nods to this and goes for his wallet...only to feel nothing." Wait-" Roxas began to frantically search himself for where he put the munny pouch...only to come up empty handed." No!"

Hayner turns around to face his friend." Huh?"

Roxas quickly looks back out toward the plaza and remembers the cloaked person picking him up. At that moment...his mind suddenly clicked."...He took it!" Roxas begins to run outside into the plaza.

"Where are you going?" Olette called out to him.

Roxas turned to face the others." Remember when I fell? I had the money before that. I bet that guy took it!"

Hayner raised his eye in confusion."...Guy?"

Roxas studied their faces for a few seconds...only to loosen when his anger is replaced by confusion."...He couldn't have gotten too far..."

"What are you talking about?" Hayner remembers Roxas outside...getting himself up." There was no guy."

Roxas lowers his head in confusion...The train station bell soon wakes Roxas up from his stupor." Huh? But he... There wasn't... Really?." The train whistle blows and the four teens realize they've missed it.

Pence hung his head in defeat." Oh boy..."

"...There wasn't anyone...there?" Roxas said to himself as Hayner, Pence, and Olette leave the Station...The three said nothing to Roxas as they all left the station and went into town...without him.

Later, at the top of the clock tower(more specifically, the clock tower ledge), Roxas was lying on his back. He looked up at the partly-cloudy sky as the sun was beginning to set. He lets out a heavy sigh, his mind still trapped in the thought of how the hooded man not only stoled the Lien pouch, but got away without being seen by his friends. Roxas lowered his gaze a bit-

Makoto popped her head into his view." Hey Roxas!"

Seeing this caused the teen to jump up in both shock and surprise." Whoa!(he looks over at the Faunus teen, who's only response was to let out a small giggle) M-Makoto! W-Where did you come from!?"

?:" Um...

Roxas looked behind Makoto...to spot Noel(who gave him a nervous smile/wave while holding a bag in her hand) and Tsubaki(who was trying her best to stay near the only available wall outside of the tower)." Noel? T-Tsubaki!?" Seeing his crush caused him to quickly stand up.

Tsubaki gives him a nervous smile." H-Hello Roxas...Fancy seeing you up here."

Several minutes later, Roxas helps Tsubaki sit down on the ledge of the clock tower, while Makoto and Noel seated themselves on opposite sides(the former on the left of Tusbaki, and the latter on the right of Roxas). Once seated, the red-haired teen took a deep breath, in all honesty, this was her first time sitting at the top of the very large, very tall clock tower. Roxas, Noel, and Makoto were used to it since they normally came up to the top of the clock tower to sit, enjoy the beautiful of the town, and eat...Sea-Salt Ice Cream! After a few minutes, the four were eating sea-salt ice cream on the clock tower ledge. The train was moving around in the background, while Roxas sat and continued to think...all while his ice cream started dripping.

Tsubaki noticed this and stated it." Roxas, it's melting."

Roxas snaps out of his thoughts and gave her a weak smile." Oh, sorry."

Seeing this caused the red-haired teen to hold out her hand and place on his face, surprising Roxas." Listen, what happened with the Lien wasn't your fault. Hayner, Pence, and Olette aren't mad at you. Stop beating yourself up, okay?" Tsubaki then gave him a warm smile." It may not look like it, but we all have faith in you. So...let go of the past, keep moving forward and leave no regrets behind."

Roxas stared at her for a few seconds before giving her a single nod with a more positive smile. While he wasn't looking, Makoto raised her fist above his head and lightly tapped it, causing the teen to let out a "Ow!". He turned to face the Faunus teen, who only gave him a bright grin." Yeah, cheer up already! We'll find this hooded guy and get your Lien back! Just leave it to your good pal, Makoto!"

Roxas let out a low sigh while Tsubaki only shook her head. Noel smiled at this, happy by the fact that her brother was no longer in his depressed state. She then went back to eating her Sea-Salt Ice Cream...only to receive a brain-freeze, catching the other three's attention. Makoto laughs at this while Tsubaki pats the young trainee on her back. Roxas smiles at this before going back to eating his ice cream, his positive attitude returning. Though...a single thing still latched at him, one that caused him to lower his eyes in thought."...Can you feel Hero?"

The young teen grunts slightly coming to his knees and touching his lip(which was bleeding a bit). He sees someone in a black cloak standing beside him." Huh?" The person picks Roxas off the ground and whispers something to him." Can you feel Hero?"

Restoration at 28%.

Naminé, hurry.

And that was another chapter! Sorry this took so long, The 2nd Day was always my least favorite day of the Roxas cycle, mostly because of the mini-games. Yes, I know the mini-games on the 5th Day can also be a little annoying but I still enjoy them because they play a role regarding the over-arcing story. But overall, I'm sorry this chapter took so long. The story is still continuing at its pace, and we are learning more about the life of Roxas.

So, comment and let me know what you all think. Until then...Keep moving foward and leave no regrets behind.

Location: Unknown Lab

In the unknown lab, the cloaked man was juggling the Lien pouch in his hand while DiZ remains at the computer screens, over-seeing the process of the restoration.

"Is it really that hard to make a beach?" The hooded man asked.

"We'd be giving the enemy another entry point." DiZ said, answering his question.

The hooded man then holds out the Lien pouch." And this?"

DiZ glances at it before looking back at his computer." We can always buy some sea-salt ice cream." DiZ lets out a small laugh while the figure juggles the pouch in his left hand." Objects from that town must be kept out of the real world. You can delete that."
