As he stepped out of the portal, he heard a gasp and turned and gasped himself. There was a person. He didn't look like a piece of furniture. They stared at each other for what seemed like a few minutes and without warning, the man shouted, "A GUEST!"

Demyx jumped a bit as more people appeared and sung a song about loving having guests, causing him to grin from ear to ear (it was quite catchy), and ushered him to a room as the first man with a thick accent declared, "You look exhausted! You simply must spend the night."

He tried to ask him about his friends, only for him to insist, "No no no, you need sleep first. We can answer your questions in the morning. I can't let you stand there when you look dead on your feet and need rest."

With that, the door closed behind him and he was greeted with the very tempting sight of a large, soft looking bed. Demyx resisted for exactly nine seconds before running at full speed and jumping onto it. The bounce he made as he landed was certainly something he approved of, but the way he sank into it was even better.

He barely managed to take off his cloak and boots before scooting under the blankets and falling asleep.

A stained glass window. Well… more like a stained glass floor. He had been here before once… right after Sora killed him. But he had forgotten about it mostly. All he ever really recalled was that there was stained glass. It showed him. He was sitting, his keyblade in his hand, and his eyes were closed. In the circles in the middle of the window showed Marluxia and Larxene, along with a few decorative shells similar to ones in his cove in his homeworld. The circles around the edge showed the other members, including a black haired girl he couldn't recall Blue was everywhere and it was calming, not being fully aware and being washed over by the windows pale blue light.

He could hear someone say something to him, but he could never make out what was being said.

His dream shifted as he landed on the window, the pieces disappearing under his feet into ocean waves. As the waves settled over him, he saw Marluxia. His lips were moving, but the water dampened the words. Larxene moved out from behind him and she tried to say something as well.

The two started to drift away from him, despite Demyx trying to reach out to them and he finally made out two words from Marluxia.

Demyx bolted awake. His dream was slipping away. He could still see the stained glass window, and he saw Marluxia and Larxene, but the two words were just out of grasp.

He flopped back into the pillow and covered his face with his hands, trying to recall those two words that could tell him where to go next. He tossed around for a good hour until the sun rose and lit up the room.

A knock at the door signaled for him to give up for the moment and try again later as he was getting no where now. "AAAAAHHH monsuir, you are awake! Please join the Master and his Princess for breakfast! They are most eager to help with what you need!"

The man left again and Demyx was alone with this thoughts. If he could just jog that memory out of his skull, he'd be golden. He huffed and swung out of the bed, seeing that his cloak had been taken during the night. That wasn't exactly replaceable. It's the only thing that kept him safe when he portaled, even as a Nobody. If he was to keep searching, he would need to find it.

Demyx was ready to run out of the room in search of his cloak when a servant bustled her way into the room, "WELL look at how WONDERFUL of a day this is! It's so NICE no longer being a wardrobe, honey, although I could have given you something MUCH better than this coat you wear. All I could do for you was mend it. Whatever you've been doing must have been DIFFICULT with all the tears littered around on it."

He calmed down as he saw that she really had mended his cloak. The tears hadn't even been noticed by him in his panic to get away from the trees and his rush to find Larx and Mar. "Thanks a lot," he said as he looked back up at her.

She smiled and left again, seeming very determined to stroll throughout the entire castle as she was no longer furniture. Demyx looked back to his cloak and put it on before leaving his room.

He arrived to the dining room still a little frustrated at himself for losing the clue to finding Marly and Larx, but also eager to see if the rulers of this world could help.

Demyx had expected a beast. A large bear looking creature with horns and fangs. He was pleasently surprised to see someone who didn't look like he could rip Demyx to pieces with one bite. It was almost a staple feature for every world.

"Lumire explained that you came late last night seeminly in search of something," the prince said.

He sat down to the chair that Lumire gestured him to, "I was separated from my friends and I've been trying to find them."

The girl who must have been the princess frowned, "You have no idea where they might be?"

Demyx sighed and shook his head, "They're moving through the worlds too and I'm trying to catch up with them."

The prince spoke as breakfast was served, "And there's no telling if or when they'll come to a world if you were to pick one and stay there."

"Exactly," Demyx nodded. "There's also the fact staying in one place is a touch risky as I'm trying to avoid bumping into another group traveling around."

The princess's expression turned cautious, "Which group is this?"

Demyx nervously answered, sure Sora had earned himself a glowing reputation on every world, "Sora…"

Both the prince and princess's expressions grew surprised.

"Sora? He couldn't be someone you'd need to avoid. He even saved Belle." the prince stated.

She nodded, "Yes. He was also the one who'd show up here and clear out the heartless." Belle turned back to Demyx, "Why are you trying to…" Belle noticed what Demyx was wearing and her expression turned wary, "You're one of those troublemakers that caused all that chaos around here."

"I wasn't a part of them really. My friends and I were Nobodies then, yes, but we knew what was going on and tried to stop it. When their mission failed, I tried to become allies with Sora but he wouldn't listen and killed me instead," Demyx gloomily explained as he slouched in his seat.

Belle's expression gained an element of shock, "Not Sora, surely."

"I get it, he's a great kid killing heartless and all that. It's just easier if I avoid confrontation all together and focus on finding Marluxia and Larxene," he sighed.

The prince seemed to remember something, "One didn't happen to be a boy with pink hair, are they?"

Demyx immediately perked up, "Yes! Did they pass by here?"

Belle seemed to recall the event as well, "I believe he was with a girl with blonde hair."

He quickly stood up, "Where did they go?"

The prince shook his head, "They didn't say where they were headed. The boy seemed fairly lost in thought and the girl was muttering about being disappointed the world was no longer enchanted.

"Enchanted…." Demyx whispered.

He could hear the words Marluxia had faintly spoken in his dream "-Enchanted Domain"

A grin slowly spread across his face as the clue he needed finally appeared, "That's IT! Thank you so much! I've got to go before I lose them again!" Demyx frantically said his goodbyes to the staff and the prince and princess and hurried down the hall where he could make a portal away from the locals.

"I finally know where you are!" he exclaimed as he ran into a portal.
