KH 358/2 Days: Phoenix's Fate

Chapter 25

Light

"Phoenix, you and Saix are two of the most loyal members in this Organisation. I can always count on you both." Xemnas' words echoed in her mind.

"Phoenix, you need to get out of there!" Kura exclaimed in her mind but she couldn't.

"Get out of there quick! Go to your room, for your own safety!" Her guardian shouted but she didn't budge.

"PHOENIX, RUUUUUUUUUN!" She screamed and that was what Phoenix did. She started running and never looked back. It was as if she was running away from all her fears. The tears kept on falling down her cheeks and her breathing came out in short uneven breathes. Just as the red haired nobody was about to turn a corner she bumped into someone and fell onto him.

Phoenix opened her green eyes and immediately blushed. She was extremely close to Roxas, but suddenly something flashed.

They were extremely close, like less than an inch. Just one little move until they kiss… It was very awkward, his body was on top of hers and her arms were around his neck. He's never been so close to her before in his life. Internally they were both enjoying this moment. _ closed his eyes and was about to move closer until…

She blinked and was brought back to reality. She was very close to him, so close that if Roxas picked up his head, his lips would meet hers and they would kiss. His cheeks were a faint red and hers were a faint pink as they stared into each other's eyes. Some of Phoenix's tears dripped onto his cheeks and she fluttered her eyelashes.

Then Roxas averted his eyes to the ground and mumbled, "Um, Phoenix can you get off me, I can't breathe." Immediately she stood up and clasped her hands together with red cheeks.

"Oh sorry." She mumbled and he stood up too.

"Phoenix, why were you running, and why are you crying?" He asked concerned and she pushed him to the wall. Phoenix popped her head around the corner and saw that the coast was clear and that no one was spying. She returned her hands to her sides and looked up into his sapphire blue eyes.

"I heard Xemnas and Saix speaking to each other and…" She looked down and started breathing heavily as the tears fell down her cheeks. Roxas took her hands in his and intertwined his fingers with hers, making her feel more comfortable and safe.

"Roxas, if I don't summon my Keyblade yet, they'll get rid of me." Roxas' blue eyes widened at this and he thought that he was going to lose it. If he could, he would have stomped up to Xemnas and finish him for just saying that.

"What?!" He asked and she started crying.

"Roxas, I don't want to leave Axel, I…" Phoenix looked up at him with sparking eyes. "…I don't want to leave you." He gazed into her emerald green eyes and this calmed him down. He let go of her hand and shook his head. Roxas Keyblade appeared in his hand.

"Phoenix, here." She looked down at the Keyblade with wide eyes and then at Roxas.

"No, I can't take it. This is your weapon, this is your Keyblade." Phoenix said.

"Don't worry about it. I don't need it, you need it much more than I do. I can handle without it. Phoenix, take it." She smiled as the tears fell down her cheeks.

"Thank you." She said softly and was about to take it. Just as her hand touched the Keyblade there was a flash of immense light. This made Roxas covered his eyes and he heard Phoenix shrieked. When the light died down, he saw Phoenix against the wall on the other side of the corridor.

She placed her hand onto her head and thought, 'What's going on…?' Then a memory appeared in her mind.

"Kingdom Hearts! Fill me with the power of darkness…" The door opened slightly and there was darkness. Rin gasped at this and got off Sora. "Supreme darkness!"

"YOU'RE WRONG! KINGDOM HEARTS IS NEITHER DARKNESS NOR LIGHT. IT IS LIGHT AND DARKNESS!" The darkness was replaced with bright rays of light which blinded Ansem.

She opened her eyes and Roxas was in front of her. He helped her stand up straight and looked into his eyes and held his hands. "Roxas, I can't wield or touch light."

Instantly, he wrapped his arms around her and pulled her closer to him. Her cheek was on his chest and he buried his face in the crook of her neck. She felt warm tears on her neck as his grip tightened around her.

"I won't let you get hurt. Nothing will happen to you, I promise. I'll protect you." He whispered and hugged him tightly. He kissed all the tears away and whispered her name. Her green eyes started to close out of slumber.

"Roxy, I'm so sleepy." She mumbled quietly and he nodded.

"It is a bit late; I'll take you to our room." He lifted her up effortlessly and he walked to her room.

Whilst walking, Phoenix stared at him with tears clouded in her eyes. Roxas would give up his weapon, his Keyblade for her. The blonde haired boy felt her gaze and looked at her face. She smiled at him, a smile full of sadness and pain and a tear fell down her cheek. Phoenix placed her hand onto his warm cheek. "Thank you." She muttered. He smiled at this with pink cheeks and nodded.

They reached their room and Phoenix got changed. She lied down on the bed and Roxas' arms were wrapped around her waist. She looked up at him and he cupped her cheek. "Phoenix, I'll be the day to your night. I'll be the light to guide in darkness. I will always be there for you."

He leaned closer to her and kissed her forehead. Phoenix looked up and their noses were touching. They stayed like this until both their eyes closed and they fell asleep.
