Chapter 29

"Come on Keyna…wake up." Demyx sighed as he gave a small pout

The hydro sat on the edge of Keyna's bed and looked at her. Zexion glanced up from his book then back to the page he read.

"Let her awake on her own, to get through the procedure she will need to be awake, alert as well as responsive." Again Zexion looked up from his book; he walked over to Keyna's bed side. He looked at the gapping wound on Keyna's arm and shook is head.

"It is defiantly infected; there will be a very large scar…even if it heals properly." Zexion removed his reading glasses and examined the wound a little closer.

"Zexion…why can't you start cleaning he wound now, I mean, the sooner you start the better right?" Demyx looked at the Cloaked Schemer with a questioning expression.

"The Organization doesn't really have the right equipment for this kind of thing…but Xenos said he needs her alive." explained Zexion "What do you think will happen if she wakes up and I'm working on her? Let's just say things will get a lot worse if she reacts the way I think she will."

Demyx sighed and looked at Keyna; he took her right hand and held it with both of his hands. He closed his eyes and began to hum a melody.

"What are you humming?" asked Zexion, raising an eyebrow.

"Keyna's lullaby…her mother would sing it to her." replied Demyx, his eyes still closed.

Demyx continued to hum the lullaby; Zexion placed his glasses on his nose and continued to read.

"Does she know" Zexion looked back at Demyx "…about them?"

Shaking his head Demyx replied "No…I really wish we didn't have to keep that a secret from her…" The hydro looked at Zexion "Hey why did you help us? You wanted to help Keyna don't you?"

"Xenos annoys me to no end, if he wanted his plan to work he wouldn't have pushed things this far…and besides she's one of the few here I can have a some what interesting conversation about things." Zexion sighed and looked at Keyna "She…reminds me of my younger sister a little…"

"You had a little sister?" Demyx looked at Zexion a little surprised.

Zexion nodded "Her name was Sarah; she was a few years younger than me. Our parents, before they died, always said one day we were going to out smart each other. She was a good kid…" Zexion placed his book on the floor, glasses rested on top, he folded his arms and sighed "She was in training to become Master Ansaem's apprentice when the Heartless attacked…she was one of the first to loose their heart…"

"Did she end up like us?"

Zexion shook his head "No…It was for the best that she did not…this "life" is something I didn't want Sarah to endure."

"My Somebody's life wasn't really that special; I was just a young boy that lived near a ship yard…"

"Aw man what the heck…" Keyna let out a groan as she opened her eyes. "Ah, white walls, too bright, too bright!" Keyna closed her eyes and groaned again.

Demyx smirked "Other than that are you okay?"

Keyna nodded "I'm back in the castle, right?"

"Yes you are, Keyna, I need to clean your wound as soon as possible and you need to be awake." Zexion pulled a chair next to Keyna and sat in it. "It will be painful…but it will be better then loosing your arm."

Keyna looked at him and nodded, she gulped "Okay…"
