Maxx: Yeah so to clear this up and to get Roxas to shut up, I'm Xam. Roxas won't let it go

Roxas: You're so-

Maxx: I KNOW! Anyways I'm updating fast now! Right now I have the entire story planned out. The problems I don't chapters up are: I. The actual writing, not planning writing. II. History Day, thank god it's over in a few days! III. Laziness! IV. Other stories. V. NO TIME! VI. Homework... It's a good thing I write during the school day. I just wish I could bring a laptop to class. Although now that history day is over, more classes go to computer lab! I always finish early and I have my USB too.

"Xam, you're only 13. We'll take you home. We'll find Myde and Ienzo." Said Sora. Xam backed away.

"No! Sora if you won't let me go, I'll find a new way to find them." Challenged Xam.

"Alright! Fine! You can stay! For now." Said Roxas. A red blur pasted by.

"Axel?" Asked Roxas, staring at it to see a bird. "Oh..." Sora looked at him.

"IAGO! CATCH HIM!" He shouted.

"Wait! You got me all wrong!" He squawked.

"You're Iago alright!" Sora added.

"No! I mean, it's not the old me. I turned over a new feather. I'm legit! No more scams. Promise!" Iago squawked again.

"Bet that's your new scam." Distrusted Sora.

"Ya gotta believe me!" Pleaded Iago.

"You hurt me and my friends. I can't trust you." Said Sora.

"I'm really sorry! I was in that lamp for months! I had time to think in there! I've flipped feathers. Give me one more chance!" Begged Iago.

"Sora, I believe him. He had time to think, he's sorry, and he just wants a chance to prove he's changed." Explained Kairi, touching Sora's shoulder.

"I still don't trust him." Said Sora, roughly. Kairi sighed and spun around to Iago, who was perched on a low wall.

"If Sora won't help, then I will." Kairi walked over to him.

"Thank you! Thank you! I wanna apologize to Aladdin and Jasmine. Do you think you can help with that?" Inquired Iago, flying up closer.

"Y-yeah, I'll help too." Said Roxas, leaving Sora.

"I wanna help too." Added Xion, standing in between Roxas and Kairi.

"I'm sorry Sora..." Whispered Xam. He stepped forward. "Let me help too. I love animals. Got four at home. One's a parrot." Xam extended his index and middle finger out. Iago hopped on his hand, then flew up to his shoulder. "Yeah my parrot, Simon likes it there too."

"I can see why. No flying involved. Nice view. Flat place sit on." Examined Iago, looking around. No one noticed, but Sora walked away.

*SWOOSH* Some Heartless with bandages on their heads and sharp desert swords appeared. Kairi summoned Destiny's Embrace, Xion: Oblivion, Roxas: Oathkeeper, and Xam: some sword and scythe...thing. (You KNOW you'll love my scythe-a-rang![Shadow] And my sword! [Darkness];) ) Iago flew up to safety. Everyone slashed their way through Heartless left and right, but more just kept appearing! (OH NOS! IT'S THE 1000 HEARTLESS ATTACK ALL OVER AGAIN!BUT WE'RE MISSING LIKE 950!)

Iago started to feel a little guilty, so he flew down and knocked a pot off of this ledge. Roxas noticed the pot, and pushed some Heartless underneath. Another pot fell down, but Roxas pushed Kairi and Xion out of the way just in time.

"Dang Heartless! I swear! If you kill me now, I'll kill you later!" Yelled Xam, going into a mad slashing barrage. Less and less Heartless showed up, until they all disappeared. "Oh... Are we done here?" Questioned Xam, looking around.

"Yeah, so can we go to the palace now?" Pushed Iago, landing on Kairi's shoulder.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Lead the way." Said Roxas. Iago flew forward towards the palace.

Don't worry, Roxas will be back next chapter...Or the next. Also guess what! Jasmine knows one of us! Now Roxas or anyone can't talk. I mean they really want to, but I have a five paragraph essay due tomorrow, I need to start and finish it, and so I won't be posting tonight, so tomorrow. PS: It's 10:32 right now!
