CH 9
She turned around to see the outline of Riku. Even with his hood up she could still tell it was him. She knew that voice and posture anywhere. She gasped and hugged him, knocking his hood off in the process. She looked up at his face and said, "Oh Riku, I'm so happy I found you! My portals aren't working and I had no idea how I was going to get to you! Come on let's-Ugh!" she stopped mid sentence because of a sharp burning pain in her stomach. She looked down to see his Way to Dawn sticking out of her abdomen. She coughed and blood splattered out of her mouth and dribbled down her chin. "Wh-why Riku?" she croaked. She watched in horror as Riku changed into Zexion. He had tricked her. He pulled out what had been the Way to Dawn and was now a normal katana, but she could see poison on it. She started too feel dizzy and she dropped to her knees. "I'm sorry Lilliel, but it was orders. I'm sure I would feel sorry if I had a heart, but I don't so I can't say I feel anything. Once it was clear you weren't going to obey us any longer Xemnas said to dispose of you." he crouched down in front of her and lifted her chin up so she was looking him straight in the eyes. "You should be thankful it was me who was sent to do this task. If it had been anyone else you would have been tortured greatly. The poison that is now invading your blood stream and traveling around your body numbs any pain and is fairly quick. You should be unconscious any second now and dead in..." but she didn't here the rest of his sentence as she blacked out.
ALTERNATE ENDING
She turned around to see the outline of Riku. Even with his hood up she could still tell it was him. She knew that voice and posture anywhere. She gasped and hugged him, knocking his hood off in the process. She looked up at his face and said, "Oh Riku, I'm so happy I found you! My portals aren't working and I had no idea how I was going to get to you! Come on let's get out of here!" Riku nodded and quickly summoned a portal just as they heard a shout. They turned to see Roxas running to them. "Lilliel! Lilliel wait! Please I'm not after you!" Roxas shouted as he dashed over to them and then stopped in front of them, panting. "Roxas..." Lilliel acknowledged warily. Roxas looked up at her and what came out of his mouth next shocked both Riku and Lilliel greatly. "Let me go with you. I learned some stuff about myself too and I don't want to be in the organization any longer." Riku looked to Lilliel for her answer as she studied Roxas. "Alright..." she slowly said and Roxas beamed.
"Man, loosing two friends in one day, I'm a lucky guy." The three whipped around again to see Axel standing there. "No one is going to miss us." Roxas stated sullenly, turning back to the portal and entering. Lilliel watched sadly as Axel shouted, "That's not true! I would..." She gave Axel an apologetic look before whispering "Goodbye... Axel..." They stood there for a moment before she burst into tears and threw herself onto Axel. He caught her, surprised, but then hugged back and quietly whispered back, "Goodbye, Lilly. Take care of Roxy for me." They broke apart and Lilliel looked into his eyes and nodded before turning to Riku. "Let's go." she said firmly and he nodded as they followed Roxas into the portal, together again.
