Well, I'm on summer break, same as I have been since I starting posting the FanFic. So I lost track of time, and I'm not even sure if I've posted today. I mean, if it wasn't for the bottom right-hand corner of my laptop, I wouldn't know what day it was. (CX) So, I figured I'd update, even if I already had today. Rofl So, I just figured I'd say this to let you guys know how things are going.

I have a file on my desktop. In that file labeled 'Word Documents' is another folder called 'Sanctuary FanFic'. In it are the folders 'Sanctuary Pt 1', 'Sanctuary Pt 2' and 'Sanctuary Pt 3'. I had to make three different sections because of this reason: Sanctuary Part 1 is manga chapters. Part 2 is FanFic chapters before the big twist (Game play chapters). And Part 3 are the chapters after the big twist, aka 'game play' based chapters (Part 2).

Now that you know that, I can say this: As I post this chapter, I have this in reserve and ready to publish at my liking- Part 1 has 8 chapters complete. Part 2 has 10 chapters complete. Part 3 has 6 chapters complete.

So as soon as I'm done with the Part 2 chapters, I'll probably post all of the Part 3 chapters the next day and label Sanctuary 'Complete'! JUUUST kidding, I'll space it out a bit. (XD) (But not by much) (Xp)

Sanctuary

Gone

"Roxas…"

"Hm?" I asked, Axel looking off into Twilight Town.

"She's not coming." He glanced at me out of the corner of his eye.

"How come?"

"What, didn't you here…" he said, his voice trailing off by the end of the sentence, looking at me, surprised. He turned back to the sun set, grinning. "She was sent on a big mission- isn't that great?"

"When's she getting back?"

"Uh… That all depends on how well she does!"

"Oh," I sighed. Axel wouldn't look at me. I wondered if he was being honest with me or not.

We went back to the castle, only to be woken up early the next morning. We were told to go to the Round Room. I drowsily zipped my cloak on over my uniform's shirt and pants that I slept in and formed a Dark Corridor to my throne. (My throne had gotten higher up due to the missions I had been completing.) As soon as I arrived, I realized that all of the other Members were already seated. All except Xion. But all of the thrones were full…? I counted them, coming at a total of thirteen thrones which had been assigned to Members, counting those who were 'wiped out' at Castle Oblivion. Xion was Number XIV. She didn't have a throne…

"Xion has gone missing," Xemnas began.

"Whoa, whoa, wait…" Demyx stuttered. "You mean that she, like… Flew the coop?"

"Preposterous," Xaldin laughed. "Why would she choose her own demise?"

"On the contrary," Xemnas stated. "No one is allowed to look for her without my express permission."

"What!" I shouted before I realized it.

"You must either let your 'friend' be. Or, if you'd rather, we could decide on a punishment," Saïx said, glaring at me.

"I would 'rather' get her back!" I yelled, glaring back at Saïx. Everyone was staring at me, but I didn't care.

"She will return when the right time comes," Xemnas interrupted.

"Hmm…" Axel began, placing his hand on his chin. "So that means, if the right time doesn't come, things will stay as they are now…"

"You heard Lord Xemnas. Obey, or meet your end," Saïx growled.

Before I realized it, I was sent off on my missions. Days passed. Weeks, maybe. Then, something actually notable happened. I was sent off to that beach that Xion and I had taken the sea shells from. Destiny Islands. I stared at the waves that were creeping up the sand and towards me, only to fall back and try again. I picked up a sea shell.

"Xion…"

Then I saw another vision of the boy with the brown spikes that wore red. He yawning as he laid back on the sand where I stood. He closed his eyes. Then the Xion look-alike stood over him. His face was in the shade, making him curiously crack an eye open, startled to find the girl standing over him. He sat upright in surprise before laughing it off with her.

They seemed happy. I wished I knew the feeling.

That's when I first realized that this was the island in my visions. The island with the Paopu fruit, where the three people from my visions usually were. But before I could focus on this much longer, I saw someone in the Organization coat walking across the bridge to the smaller island. My eyes widened as I sprinted toward the hooded figure.

"Xion!" I shouted, stopping a few paces away. She turned to face me. I smiled, but it quickly faded. What was going on? Xion removed her hood, but it wasn't Xion anymore. It was Zexion.

He started yelling things that didn't make any sense. Things about darkness and other worlds. Then a voice behind me shouted back about how Zexion was lying and something about his friends. It was the impostor in his black, yellow and blue clothes. They circled me, continuing to argue. My head throbbed, and everything seemed to shake and turn into static. I placed my hand on the sand, and I felt sure that it was going to fall through. It was solid, but when I touched the sand, my head hurt impossibly worse. I fell onto the ground, trying to tighten my grip on my head.

I formed a Dark Corridor and tried to run towards it, but could seem stand up. I was eventually able to stumble my way into my Dark Corridor and get away from the illusions.

After I was able to get away, my head instantly stopped hurting, my sense of balance returning. I eventually found my way to the clock tower.

"Hey, Axel. It's been a while since I've seen you up here."

"Oh really?" he asked, handing me an ice cream. I took my seat.

"… I went to the beach today for my mission. I thought I saw Xion there, but… I think I only saw her because I wanted to see her."

"What do you mean?"

"My whole mission today…" I sighed. "It didn't even feel real. It was almost like a dream that you can't separate from reality…" Axel stared out at the setting sun.

"Then we'll go tomorrow."

"Where? To the beach? Not without Xi-"

"No," he said, standing up on the wall. "We'll go looking for her."

"What? But Xemnas said-"

"Screw Xemnas! Xion's our friend, and we'll go looking for her starting tomorrow. Agreed?"

"Y-Yeah!" I shouted, jumping onto the wall with Axel.

We would find Xion. I knew we would.
