Prepare for the worst and pray for the best.
"Oh, do you now?"
I turned around and there, standing in front of me, is someone I thought I'd never see again.
Vyaxine.
She looked exactly like me, though her black hair was slightly longer, her strands the same length as mine, with the rest of her hair slightly spiked and going to the base of her neck.
She continued to wear the Organization coat, and the scar over her right eye was still just as noticeable as they were all those years ago.
I parted my lips to speak, but no words came out until Sora spoke.
"Who're you?" He asked with a furrowed brow.
Vyaxine gave the three a sickening smirk. "You should know." She turned her gaze to Riku. "Especially you." She lifted her gloved hand and pointed at the boy to my right. "You claim to know her so well, yet do you even know who I am?" She asked, raising a slender black eyebrow.
Riku's hand slid around my right, clutching it gently, as if urging me to say something.
"Vyaxine…" I gasped after a few moments.
She dropped her arm and looked at me with a bored expression.
"How did you survive…? The… The whole Organization was wiped out." Or so Sora told me.
Vyaxine chuckled a little. "Oh, Yvaine. They tell me you're my somebody,"
Riku's fingers twitched and I heard a small gasp from Sora.
"But you do not even feel my presence. And do you know why?"
She was behind me in an instant, her hands lay hauntingly on my shoulders and her cold breath sent a chill down my spine. "Because I have been resurrected." She breathed.
I heard that she had a small smile in her voice.
"Guess by whom." She whispered.
I instantly thought of the Ninth member, since they claimed to have 'feelings' for the other, even though I knew that wasn't true, since Nobodies can't have any feelings.
Vyaxine chuckled lightly again. "That is correct. Demyx."
"That's not possible!" Sora suddenly exclaimed. "I…"
I looked at him with wide, warning eyes, silently telling him to not say anything else.
Vyaxine straightened out her back, and, with her right arm still around my back and hand rested on my shoulder, looked at the Keyblade Master. "You what?" She asked her voice colder.
Sora kept looking from me to my Nobody as if he didn't know if he should speak or not.
Vyaxine's hand slid off of my shoulder as she swiftly made her way over to the brunette. "Speak." She commanded, holding her hand over Sora's throat.
Sora's eyes widened as he realized that he couldn't stop himself from finishing the last sentence. "I… killed Demyx…" He said a slight sign of struggle showing.
Vyaxine's eyes widened in a flash, and she threw Sora over her shoulder, sending him crashing into one of the many stone walls. "You!" She screamed, her hair spiking up even more and her eyes changing from my color to a chilling ice blue. "It was you who took him from me!" She lunged at Sora with her duel katanas summoned, though I was quicker than she was, getting in the way of her and Sora.
"Don't you dare!" I snapped, my arms held out to the side.
Vyaxine's shaper canines gleamed as she bared her teeth at me. "Get out of my way!" She shouted, digging the katana in her left hand through my side, causing me to exclaim in pain.
She slid it back out, which only caused more pain, and watched me fall to the ground, pressing my gloved hand against the wound.
I could barely hear Riku's shouting my name when Vyaxine kicked me onto my back, though I remained clutching my side and groaning in pain.
"Now…" Vyaxine walked around my body, glancing at Sora to see that he didn't move, since he was obviously knocked out when his head smacked against the stone.
"Where does it hurt most?" She pondered aloud. "Ah, that is correct. You have hearts, do you not?" She lifted the other katana to stab me in my heart, but as I clenched my eyes shut, I heard metal clash against metal and Vyaxine exclaim.
When I opened them again, Riku was crouching over me with Soul Eater in his right hand.
"Don't touch her!" He hissed at the Nobody.
Vyaxine was in the wall opposite from us, slowly sliding to the floor.
She looked up at us with those chilling ice blue eyes, though she quickly snapped her head to the remains of Hollow Bastion, and nodded. "Yes, sir." She stood and dusted herself off, then pointed to Riku and me.
"Do not worry, my pet." She said with a smile. "I am only gone for the moment." She opened a portal behind her and walked backwards into it, and out of our sight.
Once she was gone Riku quickly turned around and saw that a small pool of blood had formed, and that my clothes were drenched in blood.
"Oh, Yvaine…" He muttered, kissing my forehead for a moment as he cast Cura on my wound.
I let out a hiss of pain as the wound closed, though when Riku placed his hand over the once-gash, it cooled down since his hand felt freezing to me.
I looked up at Riku, who was looking back at me with teal eyes. He blinked once before moving his head to the side of mine. "It's going to be okay, love." He murmured, moving his free hand to the base of my neck as he kissed my cheek gently.
Sora groaned slightly and Kairi was by his side in an instant, using the little healing techniques that she knew.
Riku used the last remaining darkness to send us to the front of a hotel, carefully picking me up bridal style and hoisting me into the building. "I'll be right back once I get our rooms, okay?" He told Kairi who nodded.
I leaned my head against Riku's chest, listening to the soothing sound of his heartbeat. And sooner or later, I fell asleep.
Only to wake up to Riku exclaiming 'Dammit!' followed by a crash.
I quickly sat up and looked around, seeing Riku lying on the floor.
I looked at him with a raised eyebrow, and when he saw that I was awake, he just sighed. "Sorry about waking you…" He mumbled as he got back to his feet. He walked over to the side of the bed that he put me on and sat down, rubbing the back of his head.
I crawled over to him and examined the small bruise. "You'll be fine." I muttered, sitting back again.
Riku sighed again. "Are you feeling okay?" He asked.
I nodded and unconsciously felt for my wound, though my fingers brushed against silk instead of cotton. I then realized that I was in pajamas, and I looked at Riku with a confused expression.
"Your clothes were drenched in blood, so I had Kairi change you."
I nodded a little bit, still feeling a little dazed, since I didn't even notice how Riku was leaning in closer and closer to me.
He brushed his lips against mine briefly, and then he kissed my cheek and forehead. "It's about one in the morning, -"
"What are you doing up at one in the morning?" I questioned, my eyes widening a little.
He shrugged. "I didn't want to sleep until you woke up." He plopped himself down on his side next to me, so that he was facing me.
I looked down at him and laid beside him, allowing him to protectively wrap his arms around my waist, pulling me closer to him.
"Your hair is still wet, you know." I muttered.
Riku's reply was a grunt, burying his face into my neck.
I squirmed a little at the funny feeling that gave me. I turned my head and kissed Riku's forehead lightly, muttering a 'good-night' before trying to find sleep again.
You know you can't escape me.
I'm standing in the middle of nothing, with Darkness surrounding me. I feel a warm liquid splashing against my skin as I walk around, the liquid going no higher than the middle of my lower legs.
I open my mouth to speak, but no words are created.
I create a fireball in my hands, that now being my only source of light.
The water remains black as night.
I continue walking until I hit what feels to be a wall. But when I bring the fire closer, I see that it's a wall made of corpses. I instantly recognize who they are.
'They're the people you've killed'
I quickly turn around and look for the source of the voice, but there is still, no one around me.
'Reflect upon your past, Yvaine, and see the sins you've committed'
I turn back to the wall of corpses, slowly backing away. The wall is endless, and I cannot see the top of it, nor where it ends.
So I decide to turn and run as fast as my legs will allow me.
But I trip halfway and the fire is extinguished, leaving me in the darkness once again.
I twist my body to see what tripped me, and my anklet is back in chains.
'You cannot escape your fate'
I grip onto the floor and try to crawl away, but something grips me and gives me a firm shake.
'Yvaine! Yvaine!' The voice is so familiar now…
'Ignore that boy' The other voice whispers.
'I am your only friend, and the only one who will ever love you.'
I am freed from the chains and I scramble back to my feet, trying to escape the voice, and the darkness.
The hands grip my shoulders again and give me another shake, but this time, when I turn around, I see Xemnas' body standing there, and he's the one who is holding me.
He has a wicked smirk spread across his lips, and he leans down to kiss me.
I instantly wake up and slap who I thought was Xemnas, though instead of Xemnas, it's Riku who I slapped.
He releases my shoulders and holds onto his face, a red mark in the shape of my hand starting to become visible.
"Riku…" I breathed, panting heavily. "I'm… I'm so sorry…" I look at him with wide eyes, and he's only rubbing the new bruise.
"It's alright." He growled. "I was trying to wake you. You were shouting and twisting a lot." He looked at me with an unreadable look.
I try to calm myself down before I explain what happened, though I didn't want him to know. "I just had a nightmare, is all." I place my hand over his that was on his face, feeling guilty that I slapped him. "I'm sorry about that…" I mutter.
Riku smirked lightly. "Kiss me and make me feel better."
I rolled my eyes and whacked him gently on his arm, though I grab the collar of his shirt and pull him to me, obeying him.
He pulls away first and chuckles lightly. "You're whipped."
I smash my pillow over his head.

Okay, I'm SOOO sorry about the lack of updates! D:
First of all, my boyfriend broke up with me about a week ago since I don't like being all cuddly in public and he just HAS to have that in order to be in a relationship. Secondly, my computer breaks down and I can't access ANYTHING since like, last Friday(fixed it yesterday night), AND I have those ten classes, and in my English class I've had three major projects due.
So yeah, that's been taking up most of my time.
But I've started a new story about Vyaxine. It's kind of like 358/2 Days, but in Demyx's point of view instead of Vyaxine's. :P
I'll post it tomorrow. I'm tired.I basically forced myself to write this, so I'm gonna go pass out now.
READ AND REVIEW PLEASE AND THANK YOU.
