Edit: oops, forgot to add number 1...my bad.

"Axel, I'm bored."

"uh huh."

"Axel!! I'm really bored!"

"yeah, uh huh."

"Axel!!!!!"

"Hey!" Roxas was now standing between Axel and his beloved arcade machine, in a dimly lit room. The two had done enough 'shopping', for what teenage boy could shop for numerous hours? Oh that's right. Marluxia could. But he doesn't come in till later. So Roxas and Axel had decided to go to the arcade, smack inbetween Hollister, and Victoria's secret. Not exactely the pinnacle of locations, but it worked for guys who ogled over women while playing video games. Unfortunately, the two guys we're focusing on right now didn't fit tat description.

"Roxy, get outta the way. I'm about to beat a high record." Axel complained as he tried to push Roxas from the screen.

"But I'm bored, and we've been here for an hour already." He whined.

"Go play the games. Come on! I mean it, you're gonna let my character die!" Axel attempted once more to shove Roxas away from his game. He didn't budge.

"I already did, and set high scores!" Roxas was so stubborn sometimes.

"Well...wait, what?! You did?" Axel stared in disbelief at Roxas. He simply nodded his head and motioned to the screens all across from them, displaying the usual 'GAME OVER' signs. Sure enough, on every single one of them, under the high score roster was "1. ROXAS PWNS--100,000,000"

"Jeez Roxy, I didn't know you were that good." Axel patted Roxas on the head, and shifted his lanky body towards the door. "Alright, then let's go get some ice cream. Kay?" Roxas nodded and hurried to Axel's side. They started walking to the food court, and were halfway there when they hear loud footsteps.

"Move! Every get the hell out of the way!" Axel turned around just in time to see a man dashing out of Hollister and towards them. "Move!" The figure shot past them and knocked over Roxas in the process. He fell to the floor in a pained cry.

"Fuck! What the hell was wrong with him?!" Roxas sat up, rubbed his head and examined his now scraped elbow. "Great, now I have this gash."

"Roxas! Are you okay?!" Axel knelt down beside Roxas and tentatively examined his injuries.

"Y-yeah, I'm fine." Roxas noticed a fierce expression in Axel's now burning emerald eyes. He furrowed his brow. "S'okay. I'm fine."

"No, it's not. Roxas, wait at the food court. Go find a table or something. You know where it is, right?" Roxas nodded. "Alright, I'll be back."

Axel stood up and sprinted in the path of Roxas' attacker. Roxas merely shook his head and stood up, dusting himself off.

"He's so..." He sighed and chuckled a bit, he winced at the sudden pain in his elbow. "Better go get this cleaned up."

When Sora and Riku arrived at the food court, after much hours of shopping, they saw Roxas dabbing at his elbow and sitting at a table with a wad of napkins.

"Roxas! What are you up to?" Riku called over as he waved. Roxas looked up, and waved back. Sora and Riku grabbed some chairs and brought them over to Roxas' table.

"Some bastard pushed me over while we were coming here. Axel--"

"Lemme guess, he went to beat the living shit of him?" Riku asked as he raised an eyebrow. Sora looked at him and pouted. He had been trying to raise his eyebrow like that ever since this morning.

"Yeah, probably." Roxas shrugged and went back to dabbing at his wounded elbow.

"Hey guys! What are you two doing here?!" Axel was nearing the table. A blonde who very much resembled an ant with antenaes, or as if there were little bolts of lightening sticking out of their hair, according to Sora,walking beside Axel and laughing. She was hooked on to Axel's arm. Roxas noticed this and raised an eyebrow. 'Damn! He can do that too!' Sora thought. He looked back to the mysterious person.

Roxas looked closely at the figure walking beside Axel. It was the guy that had shoved him. Or rather girl. She spotted Riku, grinned widely, then rushed into his arms.

"Riku! I haven't seen you in forever!" Riku hugged her back.

"What are you talking about Larx? It's only been about 2 or 3 months." They let go of eachother. Sora now sported a confused yet concerned expression. Was she touching his Riku? No, no. That wasn't right. Riku had made it exactely clear to him that he wanted to remain just friends. Riku, noticing Sora's expression, smirked and nudged him. "Don't worry Sora. The only one Larxene wants is Marluxia."

Axel laughed, grabbing onto the chair for support. In a quick flash, Larxene had Riku pulled in a heald lock, and a pocket knife dancing dangerously close to his neck. She darted out her tongue and licked the blade of the knife menacingly. (1)

"What was that Riku?" A sadastic smirk broke out on her face.

"Erm...nothing nothing." He smiled frantically and motioned towards Sora. "Sora, Larxene. Larxene, Sora." Riku's voice cracked, and was about 2 pitches higher than usual. It seemed that this 'Larxene' character could make even Riku flinch and cower in fear.

Larxene flipped the switch blade closed, but not before she cut of some of Riku's silver locks and smiled, letting go of Riku.

"You're hair's getting too long sweety. It's a pleasure, Sora." She offered her hand out, at which Sora nervously shook. Riku was currently frowning at Larxene. "Ah, so this is the 'S' part in the RxS." She muttered to herself.

"What was that?"

"Nothing."

"This is Roxas by the way." Axel mentioned as he eyed the blonde boy who was currently scowling at her.

"This is the one I knocked over? Sorry, sorry. My apologies. You see, I had very important business to attend to." She smirked. To Sora, he was begining to see a female version of Riku. Always smirking, and so full of herself. "I got a call during my little shopping time at Hollister and just had to rush out."

"And what was this 'business' that made you hurt poor Roxy here?" Axel took ahold of Roxas and nuzzled his cheek against his chest. As if the group hadn't got enough attention with the pocket knife charade, onlookers threw worried and dissapointing looks.

"Ah. I had gotten a call from one of my bestest buddies ever. She said we had a very urgent YFU meeting tonight. So naturally, I rushed to go pick up my supplies." Larxene said as she sauntered around the table. She had a very sly and graceful tone about her, and an overall confident aura.

"Wait. YFU? Isn't that what Rikku was talking about this morning?! That one yaoi pairing fanclub?" Sora looked to Riku, and he nodded.

"Our information has been dispatched and decoded?! Retreat!!!" Larxene stopped sauntering and ran as fast as she could towards the mall exit. "Soooorrryyy ROOOOXXXXYYYYY!!!" She yelled one last time as she dashed out the door.

"S'okay...but why does everybody call me 'Roxy'?" Roxas muttered to himself. Axel patted Roxas on the head.

"Because, it's a cute name for a cute boy." Axel leaned down and pecked a small kiss on Roxas' cheek. He scowled and looked away.

"Go do that to your girlfriend." Roxas stuck his tounge out at Axel.

"Whoa, whoa whoa. Girlfriend? No. Psychotic girl who goes to our school? Yes." Axel wagged a finger at Roxas.

"Girl? I thought KHA was an all boys school." Sora looked to Riku.

"Yeah, it is. But Larxene knows the school nurse. It's her cousin or something. She pulled some strings, dresses up like a guy, and boom she's in. She wears a band over her 'female' parts."

"Not that she has any." Axel smirked back at Riku and them 'high fived' eachother. 'I wanna be, the very best. Like no one ever was. Dun dun dun, to catch them, is my real test. To train them is my caaauuse! I will travel across the land, searching far and wide. Each pokemon, will understand, the power that's insiiide! POKEMON gotta catch em all, it's you and me, I know it's my destiny. POKE--' Was that...was that the theme song from Pokemon playing?

"Ahem..." Riku took out his not orange, not jingling, not covered in various phone charms, black cell phone and slipped it open. "H-hello.?"

"I heard that little bit, Riku." Riku screamed and jumped up about two feet in the air. "Hi Reeky! It's Larxene." He could just hear her false sweetness in her voice. "Rikku told me to tell you that you all need to come home now. That is, unless you want to sleep over at Cloud and Leon's. But that might not be good. You would have to suffice with two sets of moaning and pounding. What with Demyx and Zexy's insatiable and unshameful sex drive."

"Uh...ok." Riku gulped. There was 'secret evil girl's plan' seething out of her voice.

"Alrighty! Well, I'll see you at the beach house. Oh, and you better not pull a stunt like that and make comments like that again. Unless you want to--" At that moment, the sound of metal retracting and several knifes being thrown and tearing up a target was emitted through Riku's phone. Larxene's screeching maniacal laugh filled his ear until she finally hung up.

"She definitely needs to be put on medication...Wait! Larxene! I'm sorry! Don't kill me! DON'T KILL ME!!!" Riku sat huddled up in his chair and started rocking back and forth.

"Umm...okay. Well, it's around 3 now. So we should head home, and then we can camp out at the beach tonight." Axel looked at his clock and suggested this. He looked towards Riku, and he just nodded his head furiously.

"Come on Riku." Sora hoisted Riku up and dragged him along, Axel and Roxas following. As soon as they got about a block or two away from the mall, Riku straightened up and maintened his usual cool composure.

"Hey look! Cloud and Leon are manning the shop again! Let's go mooch off some ice cream!" Roxas suggested as he ran across the street of oncoming traffic. Axel ran after him, dodging cars left and right, kicking off of a few of them as they went by. Riku and Sora took the sensible route, which consisted of the stop sign and cross walk.

All four of them entered the shop, signaling the bell on the door to ring. The shop was empty. One would question as to how it was kept open.

"Hey Cloud, Leon. Could you uh, maybe give us some free ice cream?" Roxas pleaded.

"No can do. Sorry. If you haven't noticed, business isn't doing too well." Cloud explained.

"Oh really...well. You see these bags? They're full of equipment. What kind of equipment you ask? The kind that I can get cheap here because there's no sales tax. The kind that can make small wallet 4x6 prints, and large glossy holiday posters we can send to your mothers. The kind that can enlarge a certain Christmas at KHA picture with the effects of spiked egg nog with Cloud and Leon." Axel smiled sweetly and held out the bag full of electronics. Cloud visibly paled and Leon's frown got deeper. The brunette slid open the freezer and took out four ice cold seasalt ice creams.

As soon as the four boys got to their beach house, with Cloud and Leon and tow, they noticed something was wrong. That's when Riku remembered Larxene's threats.

"Why is it dark...and why does it smell oddly of vanilla and cherry inscents?" Axel sniffed the air and looked questionably to the other 5. There were small tea candles lining up to the left of the reception desk. They led to the small living room, and to a closed door to the far left corner.

"Oh no. It's the YFU. They're here!" Sora immediately looked to Riku after he'd yelled that. Their eyes widened and they both mentally cursed.

"YFU? What's that?" Roxas asked as he eyed the two terrified teens hiding behind very annnoyed Leon adn Cloud.

"I-it's a secret society of rabid fangirls."

"They secretly capture and worship pairings."

"It's mainly yaoi based...and..."

"We're their next targets." Riku whispered, as he and Sora finished eachother's sentences. Ok, so they embellished a bit, but Rikku's words could only leave them so much internal tormenting throughout the past hours.

"So...what are we doing again?" Cloud asked, obviously unpertubbed from this scenario. His brunette haired companion had the same reaction.

"Come on, let's go find out what they're doing." Roxas suggested as he started walking along the path of candles.

"No Roxy! Don't go!" Axel called/whispered out to Roxas. He followed quickly behind Roxas.

"Axel! No! You don't know what you're dealing with!" Riku followed Axel, trying to make him stop. This eventually led to Sora, who dragged Cloud, who Leon always obediantly followed, to follow after him. The six stood at the white wooden door, awating their fate.

"Well, since we're here..." Axel slowly opened up the creaking door. The path led down the stairs, which were also lined with tea candles. Slowly and cautiously, one by one, the boys followed. When they reached the bottom, they came to another door. Riku stepped forward.

"If we go through this, there's no turning back. Are you ready?" The others solemnly nodded. There was a moment of hurried glances and silent exchanges of 'if I don't get out of this, you can have my ps3' and 'no Axel! even though we are in a time of crisis i will not kiss you!'.

"So..uh...we going in or what?" Leon broke the silence and everyone excluding Cloud who had the same question, glared.

"We're going into a very delicate situation. Larxene is part of this occult!" Riku explained.

"What?! She is?!" Axel slowly backed up.

"Yeah, why else would you be scared?"

"B-but...I was just...I just thought it was like a cool adventure-y thing! Sorry Roxy..I uh...I gotta go ah..." Axel tried to climb up the stairs, but Leon and Cloud blocked his way.

"You got us into this mess. You're not going anywhere." Cloud said sternly.

"How is this my fault? I simple followed Roxas...then Riku followed...then Sora, then you guys--ah crap!" Axel scurried up to where Roxas was standing and was now visibly shaking.

"So who wants to go first?" Riku timidly asked. "Do you two? Since you know, you're all older and brave and such?"

Leon and Cloud gave him a disbelieving look, and scoffed.

"Are you kidding me? Walking into that door wouldbe suicide." Leon added with a shake of his head.

"Yeah, I mean since this is a cult or an organization, I think all the other little girlies would be fine, but Larxene. yeah...she's something special. She's like the direct incarnate of satan...or worse, it's like she's related to Sephiroth or something." Cloud visibly shuddered.

"She is."

"What?!" Cloud hid behind Leon for protection. "She...she is. Oh gods! Why have you forsaken me with this torment?! Why?!"

"Hey, did you know that Sephy's our student nurse this year?" Riku asked as he nudged Cloud.

"NOOOO!!!! Leon, we have to go back. Now! Leon! Come on! Leon, lemme go! She's the--mmphh." Leon captured Cloud's lips to stop from his incessant rantings.

"S'okay. I'll protect you." Everyone 'awwed'. So many events were happening in the hallway. When will they finally go in? Next Chapter!! Muahahahahahaha!-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just kidding.

"All right! Enough with this already. It's now or never." Roxas flung open the door, revealing another dimly lit room. There were inscents all over. There was a sink, countertop, a table, and a refrigerator to their drect left. straight ahead was a clear door leading out to the patio, and beyond to the water. It was a spacious room, and to the right was a sitting area, with a 3 couches, a foosball table, and a tv set. To the left was a pool table and a pingpong table. To the very far end, past the kitchen and around the corner was a group of girls, sitting in what seemed to be a heart. Larxene and Rikku sitting in the two top points, and the girls forming a heart shape around them. The each a sketchbook, notebook, camera, and many pictures in their lap. In the middle of the heart was a huge piece of paper with writing all over it.

The thing that most shocked the group was that there, in the corner, was Zexion and Demyx with terrified looks in their eyes, bound, and gagged to chairs.

"What have you done to them?!" Axel ran from the entry way towards the long stretch to Zexion and Demyx, right as he passed the pingpong table, a knife went soaring by his face, cutting his cheek and landing straight into the wall. (2)

"SILENCE!" Larxene opened her eyes 'Geez, she threw that thing with her eyes closed?' and motioned for the other boys to come over. They obediantly agreed, trying to escape the fate of Axel. They shuffled towards the girls and realized that there were 6 chairs waiting for them. The sat across from the group, in what seemed to be a stage like area, podium and all.

As soon as everyone settled in, Roxas leaned up to Axel's face, which was still frozen in fright, and sucked on his cut. He stopped to see Riku making an 'X' sign with his arms and pointing to the girls. Cloud was shaking his head, Leon slapped a hand to his forhead, and Sora stared in disbelief.

Roxas looked towards the girls to see that they had the matching maniacal grins on their faces.

"Olette, if you would be a dear and turn on the lights please." Rikku hummed as she saw a brunette haired girl stand up. Everyone froze. Olette walked over, next to the sliding door and flicked on the lights. Almost instantaneously, the hoard of girls stood up, got their cameras and started taking pictures of Roxas who was still in the previous position.

"Oh my god! That is sooo cute!"

"I can't believe it! AkuRoku! Right infront of my eyes!"

"AAAAIIIEEE!"

"Kyaaaaa!!!!!!" There was humble jumble and a huge commotion among the girls, until Rikku finally whistled them to a stop.

"Alright everyone. We now have all our pairings here. Now, we will properly go through initiation, and introductions." Rikku ordered as she made her way to the podium. Olette fumbled with a light switch to make the "stage" have a spotlight on it.

"Hello. My name is Rikku. I am 17 years old, go to Oathkeeper Academy for girls, and founded this organization with my best friends Yuna and Larxene 3 years ago. I do the planning and manage the social events. I am also a scout for sightings. Yuna." Yuna walked up to the podium.

"Hi everyone. I'm Yuna, 16, and also go to OA. I keep track of our records, put sightings together, and basically organize everything. Larxene." Larxene smirked and stood up, flicking her pocket knife open and closed. Open and closed.

"Yo, I'm Larxene. I go to Kingdom Hearts Academy for boys...and one girl. I keep things in order. And by things, I mean people." She flicked open her pocket knife once again. "I'm what you could say...a security guard. I make sure no one gets in our way, and that we're always on top. Threats...maybe necessary from time to time." She smirked at the boys again and sat back down. A pretty blonde girl who looked very softspoken stood up,

So far, the group of guys had never moved a single inch. Roxas was still licking Axel's cheek, to which Axel was doing a little victory dance in his head. Suddenly, all hell broke loose when Zexion managed to unbind Demyx and himself with the lighter that Axel had thrown them. The boys dashed for the door, locked it, then ran all the way to Leon and Cloud's apartment.

Cloud tossed them all sodas when they sat on their couches.

"Oh man. That was close." Axel remarked as he rubbed his now bandaged cheek.

"Too...many cameras. Inscents, girls, dou-doujinshi ...EEAHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Demyx broke out into a loud cry and started gripping his head.

"Shh...it's okay Dem. I got you out like I promised, didn't I?" Zexion picked up Demyx and sat him in his lap and soothingly rubbed back. Demyx had reduced to quiet sobs.

"How long were you guys in there?" Sora asked. He was scared for his life.

"Well, we went out around 10, went to the mall, got kicked out, came back, and then got kidnapped. Let's see, it's 5:30 now...3 and an half hours." Zexion said offhandedly.

"We were in there for thirty minutes and are now scarred for life." Axel said as he shook his head. Leon and Cloud had gotten disinterested in the subject and began to makeout. They were practically on top of eachother now, and everyone stared. The pair made their way to the bedroom, tossing off eachother's shirts along the way.

Leon moved from Cloud's mouth to his neck. Trailing kisses down his jaw, and sucking lightly.

"Oh god, Leon..." Cloud opened his eyes and saw the others staring intently at the shirtless pair. "Um...just make yourselves at home. We'll be right ba--" Leon growled and bit his ear. Cloud closed his eyes and moaned deeply. "Or not."

"Can we get headphones or somethinng. We don't partic--"

"Landlord made it soundproof." And with those final angry words from Leon, their bedroom door closed.

"Wo-how. To make it soundproof. They must be worse than you two." Sora chuckled lightly at Riku's remark at Zexion and Demyx.

"So what are we gonna do now? I'm so bored." Roxas complained.

"You're always bored."

"Well, let's see what's in the cabinets by the tv Roxas." Sora suggested. The two opened up the cabinets and looked through them. "Ooo, what's this? Leon and Cloud's day off?"

Before anyone could blink their eyes, Axel and Riku shot up and snatched the tape away from Sora and Roxas.

"You think this is it?" Axel asked as he motioned towards the tape. Riku nodded. "Want me to burn it?" He asked as he took out his lighter.

"No, it's fine. Just hide it somewhere." Axel nodded in affirmation.

"Why? What is it?" Roxas asked as Sora nodded beside him.

"It's...just something you don't want to see." Riku explained uneasily. Roxas and Sora were now more confused than ever. Zexion smirked.

"So that's it huh? The infamous tape. To think they would just put it here." Zexion scoffed. And noticed Sora and Roxas' questioning looks."Last year, around January, an empidemic struck at our school. Cloud and Leon were usually busy working or studying all the time. They never really hung out with anyone. But one day, their boss gave them a day off, and this tape resulted. No one really knows what was in it, but the ones that watched it never talked about it again. Some say it was the best blackmail material ever on each and every student at KHA, some say, it was just a really dirty video. I think it was both."

Demyx shuddered into Zexion, Sora gaped at him, and Roxas looked amused. In an instant, Roxas was grabbing at the tape in Axel's hand.

"Lemme see it. Give it to me!" Axel held the tape high above his head so Roxas couldn't reach it. He attempted to climb onto Axel, but failed. "I thought you were supposed to be my friend. I hate you! You don't care about me at all!"

Roxas covered up his mouth in shock and looked at Axel. He couldn't believe that he had spoken so harshly to him. He was fighting with him over a tape for god's sake. The words just kind of slipped out of his mouth. Axel's emerald eyes shook and he dropped the tape. He blinked once, twice, and walked out of the apartment.

Riku was wincing at what Roxas had said to Axel. It pained him to hear someone talk like that to his best friend. A moment of deja vu passed by. Riku looked back at Roxas one more time and ran to follow Axel. As soon as Riku had caught up to his red headed best friend, they were already outside of the apartment building and on the sidewalk. Riku leaned on Axel for support, breathing heavily. He had run down all 8 flights of stairs while Axel had just taken the elevator. They surprisingly arrived at the same time.

"Ax-Axel" Riku was still panting very harshly. "He didn't--mean that. He just--"

"I know that. I know. Come on, let's go sit somewhere and talk. You look like you're about to die." Axel raised his eyebrows at Riku and laughed. Riku simply glared, but nodded. The pair walked to a nearby park and sat themselves on a bench. By now, Riku was back to his normal breathing. Axel stretched his arms out and let them hang on the back of the bench and sighed.

"So..what's up?" Riku asked boredly. He stifled a yawn.

"Well...Roxas has got me thinking--"

"It's a miracle, he can think."

"Shaddup. Anyways, he's just so...different." Axel sighed again and looked up at the sky.

"How so?"

"Well, he's different in a sense that he doesn't want me to screw him senseless. But...how can already 'love' someone that I've only met a few days ago? Do I really love him? Or is it just lust?" Axel raised his head and stared Riku in the eyes.

"Hmm, you've got a point there. But maybe...maybe it just..is. I mean I don't quite know how to explain it, but maybe it is love. I mean you've never felt it before, and neither have I. So who knows if love has to develop over a period of time like it does in those cheesy romantic comedies that involve best friends? Who are they to judge when and when not to fall in love?" Riku stared back at Axel, questioning him.

"Maybe. I dunno. I'll figure it out somehow. But you on the other hand. You were friends with Sora a long time ago, or so we think, do you think you love him?" Axel smirked at poked Riku's nose, making his silver haired friend growl.

"I...don't know. It's just...one part of me really wants to be with him, and the other doesn't. I just feel like something is telling me not to. You know, this morning, after my little freak out session, he tried to kiss me again, but I wouldn't let him. I don't want to lead him on and hurt him. Because I don't know myself if I can handle being with him. It just hurts, both physically and mentally. And I don't know if I want to remember my past.

Maybe it was right for my parents to take me to Ansem...yeah, I think that's what his name was, yeah, they called him 'Ansem the Wise'. Heh. Maybe it was right for them to take me there to forget. If it hurts me this much now, then something really bad must've happened back then. I don't think I could've handled it when I was younger." It was Riku's turn to deeply sigh. He pondered what he had just said and looked to Axel for an explanation. "I mean, what if I don't want to remember, and being with Sora means that I will."

"Did you ever consider him not being Sora? You're old friend I mean. The one that supposedly died?" Axel raised an eyebrow and shrugged. "It could be possible."

"But then why would I constantly remember things and pass out?"

"Well, you haven't exactely met anyone from the Destiny Islands yet, besides Sora. And you mentioned that it was a fairly small island, so people could've had practically the same childhood as you."

"That's true. But there's something about that picture...That picture. Sora has this picture, you know the one that he hit me in the head with? Just something about that is so familiar. It's like I have it or something." Riku furrowed his brow trying to recall where he had seen the photo before.

"Looks like it's time to meet the parents." Axel joked.

"Yeah, you're right. They might have it. Hey, when's our next break?"

"It's in October. We have a 3-day weekend." Axel responded quickly.

"Heh, leave it to you to memorize the days we have off."


Leon and Cloud had got done taking care of their "business" a few moments ago. They reentered their living room to find 3 people missing.
"He's out, and we're out of the beach house. No one's around"

"Alright good. Now what is it that's so urgent that you have to tell me?"

"Well, can't I just tell him? I mean yesterday the guy had a freaking panic attack and passed out. I think it would save a lot of trouble if--"

"You can't sweety, not yet. Give him time to heal. I know you want to, but you can't. It's too early if he's still having panic attacks. Which would probably mean that his memories were never completely erased, huh?"

"I guess not. Stupid Ansem the wise. Some wise guy he is."

"Yeah, I know. But it wasn't really him you know. They recently found out it was a scam and they were using a girl. Young, a pretty face. Her name was...Namine, or something like that."

"Hmph. Well, I'd better go. But I don't know if I can keep hiding my true self much longer. I can't see him be hurt like this. I mean, Riku was my best friend."

"Ah, so that was his name. Haha, aren't I silly? I forgot his name! He used to come over almost every day!"

"Yeah yeah. I'll talk to you later. Bye"

"Bye sweety."

Alrighty, a poem for you all:

Two chapters ago a phenomenal event occured

It was spectacular, if you hadn't heard

My record number of reviews per chapter was broken

I was so happy, the joy was unspoken

Seeing all the reviews for the chapter appear

Was so amazing, it almost brought me to tears

Yay I got reviews and was so excited to write

But ff .net had a glitch on their site

It would not allow me to update

It made me sad, oh the cruel fate!

But it got fixed, and you just read the chapter

So write me a review please, it will fill me with joy and laughter

Thanks to everyone who's reviewed and read

and also to those who've just thought about it in their head.

A challenge for you:

In this chapter, I have included 2 scenes similar to ones found in one of my favorite manga series. I have marked them with (1) and (2). The prize: the first three who review and respond to this challenge correctly get a mild or heavy spoiler, or could get a scene written of their choice added in one of my chapters. Meaning they could have Sora dancing in a coconut bikini and a grass skirt in my chapter. Which means, only the first three get it. No looking at other reviews previous to yours and saying that you got the right answer. I'm sorry if some of you discover the challenge after others. I'll include other ones soon! So get reviewing please!
