[After Four Days]

Slowly, my eyes had opened.

Where am I?

I sat up, and put a hand on my head. It hurts.

I got up and looked in the mirror. Blue eyes, blonde spiky hair...

My name is Roxas. I have three best friends, whose names are Hayner, Pence and Olette.

But, I don't recall any time being with them.

I feel like I'm missing something; my other half. That's weird.

"Hey Roxas!" an unfamiliar voice called from down below. It was Hayner, and two other people I guessed was Pence and Olette. As I looked out the window, they were waving their hands at me. I got dressed and met up with them.

They took me to a place called "The Usual Spot", and we talked a lot. That's all we did the whole day. It was pretty fun. Pence got us some kind of Ice Cream called "sea-salt". It tastes so good, it's my favourite.

"So Roxas," Hayner started.

"Hm?"

"How's Naminé?" he asked.

Roxas tilted his head to the side. "Naminé? What is that?"

The friends in front of him all exchanged looks.

"She's the girl you like, remember?" Pence reminded him.

"The one you always visited at the Haunted Mansion." Hayner said with a hand helping him explain.

"Never heard of her; Are you sure you didn't make her up?' he narrowed his eyes.

"You're the one who's been telling us about her." Olette said.

But Roxas wouldn't budge at all, so the three decided to drop the subject.

-------

Sora was truly sad. His other didn't even know him and his friends anymore. He didn't even remember Naminé. Sora was passed out for four days, and the same went for Roxas because of the impact from the magic. Kairi was worrying about what had happened. Riku shook his head, because he knew that Roxas' mind would soon be uncontrolled. Sora could already easily contact Roxas through his mind, but couldn't anyway because Roxas didn't know him yet.

Sora opened his eyes, and revealed two relieved faces staring at him.

"You okay now?" Riku asked him. Sora nodded, obviously bummed.

"Cheer up, Sora; Roxas will get back to himself. Keep fighting." Kairi encouraged and sat beside him on the bed. "Naminé will be hurting more than you when she finds out. Try helping her, too. She won't stop moping and regretting what she's done when she knows." She whispered in his ear.

"Speaking of Naminé, she did this for you." Riku explained.

"What?"

"She knew you wanted to be able to at least hear Roxas' voice, so she put the least possible bit of magic. But since you couldn't decipher what he says sometimes, she added more and Roxas lost it."

Riku went outside, uncomfortable watching his best friend so down. He went out and looked up at the red sunset sky to get things off of his mind.

Kairi stayed with Sora, rubbing his shoulder. Sora tried his best to act cheerful, more like his normal self, but it still felt wrong. Kairi got him to laugh once, but that was it.

--------

Time had frozen and Roxas panicked and panicked. He tried to shake his friends up but they all ended up falling to the floor. He ran to the back alley, heading to his the safe quarters of his room. But as he got out, he saw a girl in a white dress. He thought she was pretty, but he still wondered if she was frozen solid too. He walked up to her, and gently touched her forearm. Almost like a caress.

"Roxas?" the girl asked, and watched his reaction. He jumped back from where he stood, and took another good look at her; everything unfamiliar.

"How do you know my name?" he asked her. The girl had only understood the situation now, her face fell. She ran to Roxas and put her hands on either side of his face.

"It's me, remember?" she said to him, but he backed away from her.

"I don't know what you're talking about, Miss."

Naminé would have felt a stab in her heart if she had one, but clearly you could see she could break down and cry right now.

My magic! What have I done?! Roxas...

Time had pressed play, and everything moved. Naminé was too disheartened to even disguise herself.

Behind Roxas, you could hear three "OW!"s at once.

"Roxas? Jeez, where'd he run off to this time?"whined Hayner.

"Hayner, I'm out here." He said, his gaze still on the girl in front of him.

Hayner checked what Roxas was doing, "Well! Hello, there beautiful lady. What brings you to our corner here?" Hayner went, all flirty.

"Do you know her, Roxas?" Pence asked.

"No, I don't. By the way, what's your name?" he asked her.

She knew Roxas had told his friends about her already, so she lessened a part of her name.

"My name is Nami. Nice to meet you."

"Come on in, tell us more about yourself." Olette extended a hand, and 'Nami' took it.

As she went in, she took a seat on the floor and told more things about herself. She only mentioned two things.

"I love to draw. That's all I know because I can't remember much about other stuff." She perjured with them. She couldn't really tell them who she really was. She noticed Roxas put an arm over Olette –He's been having a lot of fun with her, and has been thinking of things—and that got Naminé jealous and angered. Though she hid it, she wanted so bad to take hold of Roxas' hand and say "I love you," other than brushing her nose against his and finally pressing her lips to his.

--------

"I'll go meet up with Riku. Just stay here, I'll come back". And Sora climbed out of bed, and peered at his best friend, staring up at the night sky. Sora tiptoed on the sand, hoping to ambush Riku, but failed.

"Sora, I know you're there. Give it up," and gave a low chuckle. Sora laughed with him, and sat beside him.

"Hey, Riku? Do you know how I can help Roxas regain his memories?" Sora asked quietly.

"You're still thinking about that? Well, I guess you can send some memories of you, me and Kairi. Like before, Roxas always dreamt about us, make it happen again. It could help." After Riku said that, he slapped Sora hard on the knee.

"Ow! What was that for?!" Sora cried out.

"Cheer up. Quit moping. We've been separated for how many months and I see you just to mope?" Riku sat up and messed Sora's hair.

"Wha- Hey! Stop!" and he laughed along with Riku.

"You can be sad, but also notice the time you have. We all have short lives, so we should live them to the fullest." He said. Sora nodded, and thanked him.

The brown haired boy made his way back to Kairi.

"Sorry I took so long."

"It's all right, so. What did you tell Riku?"
