Hi again! Nice to see you again. Its been awhile, I know, guess since school's starting soon, I have no time for this story anymore? Well if you like my work (not Kaylin's because I'm soloing a diferent story) don't forget to check out my warcraft story called Mixed Princess of an Elf. Don't forget to comment and review! :)

I think over and over in my head what I'm going to say to Riku and the others when we meet up with them. Maybe I should just totally flip out on them like yell "What the hell aren't you guys telling me? What happened before?" But that may seem too harsh. I climb more steps, feeling my leg tighten. 300 more stairs. I think.

"You look bad, Lagroa!" Riku laughs.

"What?" I mumble not paying an ounce of attention to him or Aladdin.

"You look bad, Lagroa!" he repeats with rolling laughter now.

"I don't care right now."

"You should see your face!" Riku laughs. I'm an inch away from shoving him off of these stairs and down to the ground below.

"Don't think for a second Riku that I won't shove you off of these stairs!"

"Like you would throw your boyfriend off the stairs!" he yells back. That is the last straw.

"That's it!" I yell not knowing what came over me. I run straight at him, but am grabbed into a hug by Riku. "What the hell?" I say into Riku's chest, trying to wriggle out of his grasp.

"Nothing like a friendly hug!" Aladdin yells from the top.

"Exactly!" Riku teases.

"Let go of me!" I yell.

"Not a chance!"

"Come on Riku, give the girl a break!" a girl's voice yells next to Aladdin.

"Slight chance!" Riku yells up, not looking at the owner of the voice and thinking it belongs to Taiga.

"Slight chance? You really want me to come down there? Riku you must haven't learned yet!"

"Oh god," Riku whispers in my ear. He lets go of me and rushes up the last 300 steps like they were nothing and said, "Many pardons, Your Royal Highness."

I hide a snicker as I head up to join the three. "You must be Jasmine." I say.

"And you Lagroa, we've met." Aladdin leans into her ear and whispers something I can't hear from a hundred steps down. "Oh, it seems not..."

"Yes."

"Would you like to come into our palace, for the first time in so many years," Jasmine asks.

"Loved to." I smile, joining them at the top of the stairs. I watch in awe as the 50-foot doors are opened to reveal a palace unimaginable in my dreams. A room so high that I could just make out the ceiling. A room held up by pillars gold in color and warm to touch.

"You must not, Lagroa, remember here much," Jasmine says, watching my admire the room. I nod. "Because this is exactly what you did last time." She smiles. Riku elbows me in the chest and points toward the far end.

I stare in awe at the giant gold elephant head sitting atop the throne that bows underneath it. Leading from the entrance to the throne is a long red carpet. I watch as Aladdin sits down in it, proud of himself from moving up from street rat to king.

"Would you like to see the rest of the palace?" he asks.

"Ye-" I start but am interrupted by Riku.

"Her leg, first." Seems like he does care, just a bit. I add to myself.

"Oh, of course!" he says and looks over at Jasmine, Her leg? What did you do to her now? Her face says. "Right this way!" he says pretending like he didn't look at his wife's face. I follow in Aladdin's wake, looking left and right at many open rooms and to the infirmary. The hall itself is too tall to see the top and too long to see the end, but Aladdin keeps walking like he himself built this building.

He leads me to the end of the never ending hallway and takes a left, opens a door and says, "This fine young lady here has gotten herself a shallow blade wound. Would you mind as to bandage her up and lead her to the gardens when your done with her?"

"Yes, Your Majesty," a lady's voice yells from the back room.

"She'll be right with you, Lagroa. Don't go running off and causing mischief, I don't want that happening again. Now be a good girl," Aladdin whispers in my ear.

"But-" I'm not able to finish because I am dragged off by the nurse and Aladdin walks out of the room.

"Good afternoon," she says but stops herself at the sight of my face, but hides it again like I was a dead man walking.

"What is it?"

"Oh. Nothing, just your leg is badly cut. You must've got yourself into some trouble," she says, wrapping my leg up in bandages and not saying another word.

"Yeah, I guess..." I mumble, standing up from the seat she had offered.

"Well, like Aladdin asked me to, I'll take you to the gardens."

"Sure," I say following her out of the infirmary and through a set of confusing halls. She opens a door that leads outside and says, "Just walk out there toward the fountain and you should find them."

"Thanks," I say, walking through the door, quiet and lonely. I head straight just like she said, looking left and right at the exotic plants and flowers that surround me. I start to hear the noise of rushing water. Ha ha! I'm not lost!

"It took you long enough!" someone shouts.

"Got lost, did ya'?" Riku shouts.

"No!" I say joining them by the fountain with its rose petals floating on the surface and money laying on its floor.

"All better?" Aladdin asks.

"Huh?"

"Your leg?"

"Oh, better, I guess."

"That's good," Riku says, "because we're leaving soon."

"What?" Taiga yells.

"You heard me."

"Yes, I heard you, but why leave now?"

"Guards, Heartless, The Organization, the Nobodies. Any of them a threat to her?" Riku says pointing at me.

"Yes. All of them. . ." Taiga admits.

"My point made."

"What time are we leaving?" I ask.

"In a couple of hours."

"So that means you will stay for dinner?" Jasmine asks.

"Yes," Riku says.

"I was just wondering, I've seen Heartless and I've seen two- no three- members of The Organization. . . what's a Nobody and why did Marluxia disintegrate and what's this Organization?" I ask.

Riku lets out a long breath of air. "When Heartless are created, the body and soul of those with strong hearts that have lost their hearts to darkness may become another type of creature called aNobody. As they lack hearts to possess light or darkness, they are 'nothing', yet still exist within our worlds. And when one is defeated, like in Marluxia's case, a Nobody fades into a state of non-existence until its Heartless counterpart is destroyed with the captured heart released, recreating the original being they were splintered from."

"And now about what the Organization is," I say, folding my arms.

"Ah, yes The Organization," Taiga says putting a hand in front of Riku's face. "I think I can handle telling this one. The Organisation is a group of thirteen Nobodies," she continues in a very proper voice. "They want to become complete beings again by contoling Kingdom Hearts! They lack emotion and mortality. Their leader is Xemnas, they follow every order he says and do whatever he bids. They hae some memories of their human forms, which somewhat reminds me of you, Lagroa-"

"That's enough, Taiga!" Riku says putting his hand over her mouth. I could be. . . a nobody? But why? If Riku and Taiga were there when I lost my memories, then wouldn't they see my Heartless skitter off?

"Well, Aladdin and I are going to freshen up before dinner. Today we will be having something I know Lagroa will enjoy!"

"Yeah, thanks, Jasmine!" I yell as she walks back into the palace with her fingers intertwained with Aladdin's.

"Love is magical," Taiga whispers in my ear, then walks off. Love is magical. I think as I sit there, on the fountain with Riku, next to me, with his presence forever with my soul.
