Chapter 7 the New Apprentice
(Xion POV)
"Titans trouble," Robin said.
"What is it?" Cyborg asked.
"It's a bit blurry, but it seems like Slade has a new torture subject," Robin said.
"What?" I asked.
"He means a new apprentice," Raven said.
"Yes, and we have a good picture of him, but it's still blurry," Robin said, "Cyborg can you focus it?"
"Already on it," Cyborg said.
As it began to focus more and more, I saw what he looked like come in view. He had a metal/ fabric tight suit, the silver metal being on his shoulders, knees, elbows, around his wrist and ankles and around above the collar bone, chest and a half of the upper back. The fabric was all black. He had some sort of headphones on his head and on the left was XIII and the right was an 'S'. I saw his face, he had spiky blond hair and blue eye similar too my own. When the picture was completely focused I finally realized it.
"Oathkeeper and Oblivion," I said.
"What?" Beast Boy asked.
"Oathkeeper and Oblivion are the keyblades my friend uses," I said "It's Roxas."
"That mean then your friend is with Slade," Robin said, "Let's go, we might have a chance to save him."
"Xion are you okay?" Raven asked looking at me.
"It's just, what if I begin to absorb him again? Then this time, what if we can't stop it, he's my friend," I asked.
"Don't worry, you'll both be fine," Raven said.
"Thanks Raven," I said following the others.
I was using my light and darkness abilities to fly with Starfire and Raven while Cyborg, Robin and Beast Boy were running. We found only Roxas there.
"Who are you people?" Roxas asked.
"We are just looking out for you, you should never trust Slade," Robin said.
"Why should I listen to you?" Roxas asked going ahead for an attack; I dove and block him with my keyblades, "Two keyblades? Who are you really, are you the one he mentioned?"
"Depends, why would you trust him if you want to master the keyblade if he doesn't wield one?" I asked.
"How would you know that?" he asked as we continued to fight, "You don't know where I'm from."
"Roxas, you forgotten it for this long and never tried to remember?" I asked, "You never remember our time in the Organization? Or how we always were with Axel on the Clock Tower after missions? Or even, when I asked you to free the hearts in Kingdom Hearts?"
"Stop it, you'll make it worse," Roxas said.
"Your head is hurting again is it? It's because your memories are trying to come back, but your forcing them to stay out of it," I said, "Come on Roxas, just let them flow by, then it will stop hurting."
"No I'm not Roxas, I am XIII, nobody else," Roxas said.
"Oh of course you are," I said, "Roxas, Number XIII the Key of Destiny and Nobody of Sora right?"
"How would you know that, I never met you," Roxas said.
"Because I am you, the same way I am Sora," I said, "Just a mere replica."
"Stop it, you're making it worse," Roxas said almost screaming in pain.
Just then a fiery chakram went between us, Axel was here as well?!
"Hello, did I catch you two at a bad time?" Axel asked as his chakrams came into his hand.
"Axel why are you here?" Roxas asked.
"Because I made a promise, you remember it Xion, right?" Axel asked.
"Of course, no matter how many times we ran away," I said.
"I'd always be there to bring you back," Axel finished, "so tell me Roxas, why are you here?"
Roxas wouldn't say anything.
"What's wrong Roxas, are you still forgetting?" I asked, "That the three of us were best friends?"
"How could we if I never remember her," Roxas asked.
"Well I remember Xion well enough," Axel said, "After all she did run away like around five times."
Just then I felt my vision going and was hearing people shouting my name.
(Raven POV)
No, this cannot be happening!
"We'll finish this later puppet," Roxas said disappearing.
"We have to take her back to Titans Tower now," Robin said.
"I'm going as well," Axel said, "I'm her friend, and right now, the only one from her past from the Organization."
We arrived back at Titans Tower with Axel coming whether we liked it or not.
"Well she'll be fine, just a small shock," Cyborg said, "She'll wake up soon enough."
We were all glad to hear that, but Axel was… let's just say… excited?
"Axel, don't tell me I was out for a week or more," Xion said as she woke up.
"Nope just for at least an hour, that's a new record," Axel said.
"Well then I haven't missed much," Xion said, "I missed you Axel, you and Roxas."
"I know, I missed you as well," Axel said, "So, want to see if I'm still better than you."
"Oh I know I'm going to win," Xion said.
"Wait, we're not really certain on how you are right now," Cyborg said, "what if you faint again?"
"I'll be fine," Xion said, "after all, it has happened before for much longer and I was fine."
"That was then, and this is now, who knows what has changed," Cyborg asked.
"Well what does it say about my condition then?" Xion asked.
"That your fine… nothing is wrong," Cyborg said.
