Roxas POV

Axel and I were sitting on the couch when we got the call. We had no idea what was going on. We just heard Demyx crying hysterically on the other end. We couldn't decipher his words. The only thing we heard was sobs and a name. Zexion's name. Axel somehow knew what was going on and grabbed my hand.

He dragged me out of the house and into his car. I didn't know what was going on! What had happened? Axel wouldn't answer me. He had this blank stare on his face and I could've sworn I saw a few tears run down his cheek.

The whole ride to Zexion and Demyx's house was silent. No music. No talking. Nothing. All you could hear was the sound of our breathing and the air conditioning. I was getting worried. Was Zexion hurt?

When we got there, Axel got out of the car and walked up to the house. He didn't say a word to me or even look to see if I was following, which I was. He opened the door and ran inside. Demyx was inside, holding Vexen and Marluxia. He was shielding their eyes from something. I didn't know what until I walked inside. I had smelled the blood from the door and now I knew why there was a strong scent of blood.

Axel immediately pulled me towards him and shielded my eyes. He was too late though. I had already seen the bloody body lying on the floor. I had already seen the soulless eyes that use to be filled with light and happiness. I had seen Zexion's dead body.

oOoOoOoOoOoOo

It had been hours since the police escorted us out of the house and into the driveway. Demyx looked dead inside. Vexen was crying and Marluxia couldn't register what had just happened. He was only 2 years old after all. He probably didn't even know that Zexion was dead.

"What happened?" Axel asked Demyx for the fiftieth time. I knew he was a cop and all but now wasn't the time to ask Demyx what had happened.

"I don't know...I came home and...I saw him on the ground," Demyx said. More tears were escaping his eyes as he choked out the words.

"Were Vexen and Marluxia home?" Axel asked. Demyx nodded and tightened his grip on Vexen and Marluxia.

I couldn't stand this. Seeing Demyx like this was unbearable and I couldn't help but feel a tremendous amount of anger towards Zexion. I already knew why he was dead. I could tell by where the wounds were. Two deep gashes on each wrist. Those are the wounds of a suicide. Any moron could figure that out. Demyx was probably denying that Zexion killed himself and Axel probably already knew but he still had to ask questions.

"Roxas?" Axel asked as he I got up and started walking towards the house. He was calling my name and telling me to stop, but I didn't listen. I wasn't going to just sit there and not do anything. I could heal myself right? So who says that I can't heal other people? Even if they are dead.

I walked into the house, ignoring every cop that told me to leave and went up to Zexions body that was covered by a white sheet. A hand grabbed my shoulder, but once it came in contact with my body it pulled away as if it had received an electric shock. I didn't know why the man let go, but he did and that gave me the opportunity to rip the sheet off of Zexion and place one hand on his chest and the other on his wrists.

I tried to concentrate on who I wanted to heal and what I wanted to heal. I was beginning to wonder if this wasn't going to work, but the doubt left my mind as color began to return to Zexions face. I looked down at his wrists. The cuts were beginning to close and the bleeding had stopped.

I could hear Xigbar telling everyone to get out and slamming the door behind him. I owed him one. It would be hard to explain how I magically brought Zexion back to life.

When I heard that first breath come from Zexions mouth, I smiled and pulled away. I felt so dizzy and weak, but it was worth it to bring back a friend from the dead. I looked at Zexion and frowned at him. I had the strongest urge to slap him across the face right now, but I would leave that pleasure for Demyx.

"Huh? What?" Zexion asked, he sat up slowly and looked around then he looked at me, "Roxas?"

"Hey moron," I said, I couldn't help but cry a little.

"How am I alive?" he asked.

"I brought you back. I don't know how. I guess my powers have gotten stronger."

"Good to know."

"Why did you do it?"

"Do what?"

"You know damn well what!"

"Um...no I don't."

"Why did you kill yourself?"

"I didn't!"

"Don't lie Zexion! I know you did!"

"Roxas I really didn't! I know it looks like I did, but I didn't."

"Ok then how did you get those wounds?"

"...Would you believe me if I said I was possessed?"

"What?"

"Saix apparently has more than one power."

"Saix? What? I'm so confused!"

"I'll explain later. Can you get the others?"

"...Alright. I'll ask Xigbar if he can get rid of the cops."

"Thank you."

I got up and headed to the door. Xigbar was right by the door. I asked him if he could get rid of the cops and he nodded as he told everyone to leave except of course Demyx, Vexen, Marluxia and Axel. Within minutes all the cops left, including Xigbar.

Everyone headed inside and Demyx tackled Zexion. His tears wouldn't stop as he held onto the blue haired man as if his life depended on it. Vexen was smiling and crying as he sat next to Marluxia.

The happy moment ended when Demyx smacked Zexion across the face as hard as he could. He glared at the man as a finger poked his chest.

"DON'T. YOU. EVER. DO. THAT. AGAIN!" Demyx screamed.

"I didn't!" Zexion shouted back, rubbing his red cheek, "If you let me explain then you can know what happened!"

After many minutes of fighting, everyone sat down and waited for Zexion to get back downstairs. I was wondering what Zexions explanation was going to be and if it was real or not. It could just be something he made up so he wouldn't get in trouble for killing himself, but I doubt he would do that.

"Alright," Zexion said, coming down the stairs. He had changed into fresh clothing and he had cleaned up the dried up blood that was on his wrists, "you all know Saix right?"

"Of course. He was Xemnas' little guard dog," Axel said, his hand holding onto mine. I definitely knew Saix. His face still haunted my nightmares. He was the reason why Xion was dead.

"I was sleeping when Demyx went out. I hadn't slept in probably 3 days so I was exhausted. I woke up when I heard a crash from downstairs. I ran down there because I knew Vexen and Marluxia were down there. When I got there I saw Saix. He wasn't a toddler or a child like we thought he would be. He looked like he was around 10 and by the way he looked at me I was pretty sure he had all of his memories. He lunged at me and I think Vexen threw ice at him. I can't remember what happened after that. It's all a blur. I remember feeling cold and weak and I remember staring at him before I died," Zexion explained.

"So dog boy is loose and he's trying to kill us?" Axel asked.

"I'm assuming yes. He remembers everything and he probably knows where his dear Xemnas was. He wants revenge. I could tell," Zexion said.

"So what do we do?"

"We need to put a stop to this. We need to get Vexen and Marluxia back to their original selves and some how we need to capture Saix and use him as a bargaining chip."

"A bargaining chip?"

"Saix was important to Xemnas."

"How exactly do you know that?"

"...Stuff happened during my childhood. You can ask Xion and Larxene, but not me. I don't like talking about it."

"You seem to know a lot about Vexen, Marluxia and that little 'organization' that Xemnas created. Don't you think we need to know? You have to tell us."

He sighed and nodded. Demyx brought Vexen and Marluxia upstairs and came back down to listen to the story. What exactly happened in Zexion's childhood that made him know so much about Xemnas and his little 'organization'?

oOoOoOoOoOo

Zexion POV

"When I was young I lived in England for about a year or so. My father left us and my mother died from depression. I was in an orphanage and Xemnas 'adopted' me. He took me to Castle Oblivion and did his experiments. Then when he was finished he put me back into that orphanage. I lived there for another year until a man named Vexen came up to me and said he was a friend of my parents. I didn't remember him that well because I was young. He adopted me. Even though I was different and scared the other children and adults," I began. It was hard to remember exactly what had happened. It was so long ago, "When we came to his house I met another man named Marluxia Rose. Of course I didn't know at the time that Vexen and Marluxia were dating or that Marluxia was going to betray our little family in the future. Years went by and then Vexen and Marluxia found Xion. They brought her home and I had a little sister. Everything was fine in our lives. We had a nice little family and we all knew that we had special powers. Then one day Vexen got a call from Xigbar. I didn't understand at the time what was going on, but when they brought Larxene home I figured it out. Larxene had been another victim to Xemnas' experiments and accidentally burned down her house and parents. She had gotten angry or something and electricity shot out of her fingers and that started the fire."

There was a long pause before I started again. I was making sure that everyone was paying attention and soaking in this new information. They knew so many new things now. They knew I was adopted by Vexen and they knew I had lived with Marluxia, Xion and Larxene. It was hard talking about the old days. Everything was so great back then and then Marluxia and his stupid friend, Luxord, had to go ruin everything!

"...more years passed. I was about eleven maybe twelve. I became friends with everyone around this time. Marluxia came home late one night. I had woken up to the yelling and snuck downstairs to see what was going on. Vexen was yelling because of all the blood that coated Marluxia's body. It wasn't his own blood. He killed someone that night and every night before that. That's when things started to go down hill. The 'father' that I thought was my hero was actually the devil in disguise. Nothing interesting happened after that day until one day Vexen and Marluxia were out. They were working late at the school and it was just me, Xion and Larxene." I could feel the tears welling up in my eyes. I didn't want to continue. This was the real day that Ienzo died. This is when all that happiness and sense of sanity disappeared. "Luxord knocked on the door. He was a friend of the family so I didn't think he would cause us any harm. I opened the door that day...and I was grabbed by Saix. His arm was around my neck and I couldn't breathe. I watched them throw Xion and Larxene into that truck and then they threw me in there. I was scared and gasping for air. I didn't have my inhaler with me. Then I heard Vexen screaming at Luxord and telling him to let us go. They fought and before I knew it, Saix was grabbing me out of the truck and threatening that he'd snap my neck if Vexen didn't back down. So he did." Demyx touched my hand and rubbed into soothingly. I hadn't even noticed that I was crying. I looked at Roxas and Axel. Both were pitying me. I could tell by the way they were looking at me. I didn't want their pity. I cleared my throat and took a deep breath. "I can't really remember much after that. Marluxia came once they were about to take us away and he threatened to kill them if they didn't let us go. They listened and set us free. I remember fainting from the lack of air. When I woke up Vexen explained everything to us. He said Marluxia was a traitor and that we shouldn't trust him or Luxord anymore. He even called Xigbar so he could get the cops to protect us from them. After a while we learned that Luxord wasn't one of the bad guys. He was a government agent who was undercover so he could find out what Xemnas was doing. He came back to us and told us everything. He told us Xemnas' weaknesses and his strengths. That's how I know that Saix is important to Xemnas. That's how I know a lot of stuff. I know that Xemnas is like us. He has a special power. He looks like he can't do anything but he could kill us all in a second. We have to stop him no matter what. It'll be hard, but we have to capture Saix somehow and use him as a bargaining chip. That's our only hope because I know for a fact that Xemnas is angry and he wants revenge. I've seen it in my visions."

The room was silent. That was probably the most I've ever said in the years that I have been living. I just poured out my whole life story to my friends and cried in front of them. That wasn't something Zexion would do...that's something Ienzo would do. Perhaps my old self was still inside me somewhere.

I looked at Demyx. His face was littered with tears and he was nodding. Everyone was. They all knew what we had to do and we all knew that it was probably going to be impossible to capture Saix, but we had to try.

"So what's the plan?" Axel asked.

"First we have to get Vexen and Marluxia back to their original selves," I said.

"And how do we do that?"

"We need two people. Luxord and Namine."

"What can they do?"

"Luxord controls time. He could age their bodies back to their ages. As for Namine. She can bring back their memories."

"Wait a sec. I thought Xemnas only messed with 13 people."

"That is false. Xemnas experimented on a lot of people. Namine was a 'failed' experiment or so he thought. She didn't get her powers right away like the rest of us. It took her a year to get them."

"And how do you know this?"

"Did I not just tell you that Luxord was an undercover government agent? When he told us everything he really did tell us EVERYTHING."

"Oh...well that makes sense. How do you plan on getting Luxord and Namine to help?"

"Namine is friends with Larxene. She'll gladly help us out. As for Luxord. I know just what to do to get him to help us."

"And that is?"

"I have a bargaining chip for him as well. Get me a phone and stage one of our plan will begin."

Axel handed me the phone and handed it to me. I gladly took it and smirked as I began to dial the numbers. There was only one person that Luxord could never say no to and lucky for us I knew that person very well. He was friends with Xigbar and Vexen and he loved our family. We actually thought of him as an uncle, but he rarely came over.

"Hello?" the voice asked.

"Hi," I said.

"Zexion?"

"Yep."

"You never call. What's wrong?"

"Nothing."

"Then why are you calling?"

"I need to ask you a favor."

"What's this favor?"

"I know you hate him, but could you please talk to Luxord?"

"...Why?"

"I need his help and he's not generous enough to actually help without something in return."

"So you want me to convince him to help you?"

"Yes."

"How do you expect me to convince him?"

"I think you already know."

"...I'm going to regret this."

"You may not. I know you both still like each other. A date might make things better between you two."

"I suppose so."

"So you'll help us?"

"Of course."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome. Good bye."

"Bye."

I hung up the phone and smiled at the group. They all looked extremely confused.

"Who was that?" Roxas asked.

I smirked, "Xaldin."
