Hm, not so sure I liked this chapter too much. But don't care now, wrote it a long time ago and all. It's sorta a cliffhanger, but not really. It was going to be a cliffy, but I decided to spare you all, lol. Hope you like it! ^_~

Claimer: I DO own Falina, Ceres, Narimo, Tetra, Inge, and the plot...plus the world they're in right now. Got it? Ok!

***********************************************************************************************

The next morning, instead of Riku, Inge was the first to wake up. Riku was having too good of a sleep to get up. Since no one else was up yet she just sat around doing pretty much nothing. She examined her sword to make sure there were no cracks or anything in the blade from yesterday, even though it was unlikely, but she was bored. The bun her hair was fixed up in was all messy, so she took it down and put it back up to make it neater, still with hair sticking out from all sides.

Eventually Riku and Tetra did wake up. They sleepily walked into the living room. Riku plopped himself down on the couch and Tetra went into the kitchen. Inge sat up, looked over and smiled at Riku.

"Did ya have a good sleep?" She asked. He yawned before answering.

"Yeah. What about you?" He questioned while returning her smile.

"It was fine. I woke up like thirty minutes ago and was bored as heck though." She replied.

Since she wasn't really hungry yet and didn't feel like finding anything to eat anyway, Tetra came back in the living room and sat down on the couch putting an elbow on the arm rest and setting her chin in her hand.

Only seconds later Falina came in the room. She was going to go in the kitchen to get something to eat but remembered that she got her memory back last night, and was going to tell the others today. She stoppped behind the couch and turned to all of them.

"You guys won't believe what happened last night." She said, wanting them to guess a little. Riku, who was resting on the other arm rest of the couch, was the first to say something.

"What, you and Sora did it?" He asked in a joking voice with a smile. She reached down and smacked him upside the head.

"You wish, Riku. No, I got my memory back last night." She told them.

"Did you really?" Tetra asked.

"Yeah, Inge wasn't lying about my past, everything she said was true. I was just thinking of everything she told us yesterday and it all came back to me suddenly. I remember everything now."

"That's good, I was hoping you'd remember so you wouldn't think I was lying." Inge sighed in relief. Then Sora sleepily walked out of the room, down the hall, and into the living room.

"Hey guys, what's goin on?" He asked.

"Falina was just telling us that she got her memory back." Riku answered.



"Oh yeah, she got it back just last night." Sora said.

"Well it's a good thing she did. At least now we know we can trust Inge since apparently she was telling the truth." Tetra said. Everyone agreed. They all went into the kitchen to get some breakfast.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ceres had been training, and almost never stopping, since he said he was going to. By now he was in pretty good shape, which made him a formidable enemy now. He was in one of his large open rooms, with his shirt off and sweating. He quickly slashed his sword around as one of his minions, with which he was training by fighting, came up behind him. He had been training all day, and by now was tired.

He stopped and put his sword over his shoulder. His sword was quite long, not that wide but wide enough to do some real damage. It had a black handle and a maroon hilt with a dark yellow jewel in the middle of it. There was a thin curvy engraving all the way down the silver blade.

Ceres grabbed his shirt and walked out of the room, leaving a mass of bodies and blood on the floor behind him which suddenly vanished as he left the room.

He walked into his chamber and set his sword, that was now in it's sheath, down by his bed. He put on a different shirt and then put his blood-red trench coat on over it. He walked out of the room to a larger one, in which Narimo happened to be.

"I am sick of training. I'm sick of waiting!" He growled.

"Waiting for what?" She calmly asked.

"For the day I kill that brat and her friends. I was going to train for a couple more days but I'm getting impatient with my ownself. I'm most likely already stronger than those fools anyway, Keyblade masters or not." He answered.

"Then why don't you go ahead and go after them already and stop complaining?" She said becoming irritated.

"I am. I was going to do that just now, but first I might want to think up a plan on how I'm going to do this." He replied.

"Very well then. I'll be here if for some strange reason you need me." Narimo said as she walked off to her own chamber.

Ceres thought up a simple plan, and after making a few final preparations he walked back into his chamber, grabbed his sword, and attached it to his belt. He then left the castle, and flew off to the cave. Though he did not know that they were no longer at the cave.

Eventually he did get to the cave, and landed on the ground outside it. He looked around him, seeing and hearing nothing. He simply thought they were hiding, either in the cave or nearby.

"Come out now! Do not make me force you out!" He yelled towards the cave. Hearing nothing, he yelled again.

"Have it your way, I'll come find you!" He proceeded to go into the cave. It was dark so he made a white ball of energy appear in his hands for light. He looked around the small cave, but saw nothing, no one. An angry expression appeared on his face as he went back outside, extinguishing the ball of energy on his palm.

"Where could they have gone? There's no where else they could be." He thought aloud to himself. He then remembered Tetra, how she had escaped and came to this cave where they were. Now he looked somewhat irritated. 'I know where they are now. I shouldn't have let that blasted girl escape, it's only causing me more trouble.' He thought. He jumped up and flew off. He was flying in the direction of Tetra's town.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sora and the others finished eating, though there wasn't much to eat. It still gave them enough to where they wouldn't be hungry for a while.

"Hey guys, ya think we shoud go look around town and see what we can find in all this mess? It 's something to do at least, and I've been wanting to look around ever since I got back anyway." Tetra asked the others.

"Yeah sure." They all agreed. It was something interesting to do at least, and they all had wanted to see the rest of the town, or what was left of it anyway.

"But first I need to get dressed. I've got some clothes you can borrow, Falina. You've been wearing those night clothes for a while now." Tetra said as she smiled at her.

"Oh yeah, thanks." Falina replied. Tetra and Falina went back into Tetra's room. After a few minutes Tetra came out and went into the bathroom with her clothes in her hand. After a few more minutes Falina came out wearing a black skirt, and a v-necked maroon shirt. Tetra came out wearing a blue tank top and black shorts.

Now that they were all ready, they all went outside and walked around outside the house for a minute. Sora found a ball halfway buried in the ground. He picked it up though it had a little air taken out of it, it was still an ok ball. He tossed it Riku who was up ahead a little ways.

"Hey Riku, catch!" Riku quickly turned around and caught the ball.

"Very funny Sora, still playing catch." Riku said as he grinned and threw it back to him. Sora caught it and a grin formed on his face.

"Who said anything about 'catch'. How about 'tag'?" Sora said as he quickly threw the ball back at him. Riku was turned back around and the ball hit him square in the back, and pretty hard too. He turned back around, an evil smile on his face.

"Now you're gonna get it, Sora." He picked up the ball and looked once again at Sora.

"Oh like you could catch me." Sora said as he stuck his tounge out at him.

"Well we'll just have to see if I can now won't we?" Riku said, and then he chased after Sora, who began running the other way, right past the girls. They simply stared as they ran around.

"Ya know they can seem pretty childish sometimes." Tetra said. The others nodded.

"Yeah, but it is pretty funny to watch." Falina replied.

"I've got you now." Riku said as he threw the ball at the back of the running form of Sora. Riku had aimed carefully though, and it hit him right in the back of the knees, causing him to collapse and land right on his face, which made for quite a funny sight.

Riku walked in front of him and picked up the ball.

"I win. And trust me, Sora, it's not hard to catch you." He smirked. Sora just looked up at him with dirt on his face.

"Oh very funny, Riku." Was his reply. He stood up and dusted himself off and wiped the dirt off his face. "Ok then, I think that's enough ball playing for today." He added.

"Ok you children, can we continue on now?" Asked Inge as the three of them walked up. They both nodded.

They started walking down the road with Riku a little ways behind, but Falina and Sora more so. Tetra went into one of the torn-down houses. She started looking around just to see what there was left. Inge followed.

Riku, Sora, and Falina went closer to the house to see. Riku and Sora were looking in through the large busted window, with Falina behind them. Tetra and Inge picked some stuff up here and there, only to find nothing of interest, just more broken boards and rubble.

They were looking threw some of it just to see if they could find anything. Falina suddenly heard something, and turned to see what it was, but before she could do anything she was suddenly lifted into the air by something. The others quickly turned around when they heard her scream.

They saw floating in the air, Ceres, with Falina in his grasp. He had one arm around her and the other over her mouth.

"Falina!" Sora quickly shouted as he ran towards them, but Ceres simply flew a little back and a little higher. Tetra and Inge had run outside by now.

"I'm guessing that's Ceres?" Inge asked Tetra. Tetra looked ahead and nodded, as Inge's eyes widened.

"Hell no! You're not taking her while I'm around!" She angrily shouted at him. He looked at her a little confused.

"And just who are you? It seems that every time I come back there are more and more of you."

"I am Inge Detollenaere, and I am Falina's guardian. Put her down right now!" She replied as she drew her sword from her back.

"Sorry, I don't plan on doing that." He said as he grinned down at them.

Inge grit her teeth and leaped at him, sword above her head. He flew to the right and dodged her attack. She quickly turned around and swung her sword upward in a circle, but still he dodged it. Realizing she should stop before she hurt Falina accidently , she put her sword down. Ceres grinned and turned back to the others, all the while Falina was trying to get out of his grip.

"If you want her back you'll have to come to my castle and take her back yourselves." He told them. Falina was staring down at Sora with frightened eyes. He was looking up at her with an equally scared expression. She felt tears come to her eyes as she realized she was about to be taken away from Sora and the others.

As Ceres started to fly away she managed to push his hand off of her mouth, and she looked back at the others.

"Soraaa!" She yelled as she was taken away.

He stared up in disbelief and fell to his knees, as he felt tears flow down his face. His eyes were wide and he felt like he could hardly breath, why didn't he do anything to stop him, he thought.

"N-No...please no." He slowly said, barely above a whisper. He fell to his hands, and hit the ground hard with his fist. He felt his hot tears flow freely out of his cobalt eyes and down his cheeks. "Damn it. ....No." Was all he kept saying.

The others ran up to him, concerned.

"Sora. Are you ok...?" Tetra slowly asked, though the answer was obvious.

"No...I'm not....Why didn't I do anything to stop him?! I could have... should have stopped him from taking her! It's my fault! I didn't save her." He answered. He slowly stood up, wiping some of his tears away. "We have to go save her. When we get there, I swear I'll kill him!" He exclaimed as he balled his hands into fists.

Sora took off back to the house with the others following. He quickly ran in and grabbed his jacket and started to make his way back out the door.

"Whoa, Sora, you're going to go after her today?" Riku asked standing in front of his friend.

"What the hell do you think?! Of course I am. Who knows what the hell he's planning on doing with her, and you and I both know that Falina's not a very physically strong person." Sora replied with both anger and fear in his voice.

"Don't you think we should rest up first? I mean far be it from me to stop you, but if you go I'm going." Riku said.

"That's practically all we've been doing for the past few days is resting, Riku. I'm ready to go kill him now!" Sora replied.

"Well then let's go. Anyone else comin?" Riku asked as he turned to the others.

"Of course I'm coming I'm Falina's guardian, it's my duty to protect her." Inge replied as she stepped forward.

"I'm not stayin here by myself and worry my head off about you guys, I'm comin too. Besides, I know my way around Ceres' castle better." Tetra spoke up.

With that, Sora nodded and bolted out the door with the others behind towards the way Ceres had left, to the castle.
