annoyance and confusion


"Hey, wake up Yukomo, are you alright" came a far off sweet voice "please wake up Yuko-kun, please" the voice said, almost pleading. Yukomo slowly opened his eyes and blinked a few times, looking around the room and bringing his hand up to his forehead groaning.

He smiled as his gaze fixed upon the girl that the voice had come from "well hello there Sonja, I'm glad to see a familiar face after what I was just put through." Sonja blushed a bit and her eyes darted away as a smile curled at the edge of her crimson tinted lips. She was a vivacious looking girl, about nineteen by the looks of it. She had long dark oaken brown hair that fell down straight to about mid back, and she had some bits of it hanging low over her face. Her eyes were sharp and full of what would seem like a tainted purity; not quite good but not quite evil. She was adorned in an outfit that seemed as though it were a fusion of gothic and punk, a corset in a black with bright red trim to match her eyes was accompanied by a black skirt that had red leather parts to it hung down about mid thigh and she had shoes that looked like they could come right out of fantasy. She also wore two arm warmers that matched her outfit, flaring out to reach almost to the tips of her fingers.

A sigh came from a corner where Renos stood with his arms crossed over his chest and his head down a bit, somewhat of an annoyed smile was plastered on his face and he let out a bit of a snort "we have business to attend to people, so either stop the flirting and move on to the matters at hand… or get the hell together already!" a blush overflowed in Sonja's face and a slight blush graced Yukomo's, he turning his head away and sitting up, placing both palms back behind him on the bed he was now sitting up on and he let out a bit of a grunt. "There is no possible way for someone to survive what you just went through Yukomo" Renos said as he walked over to his injured friend, his arms still crossed over his chest "so how in the hell did you survive that anyways?"
"You wouldn't believe me even if I told you" Yukomo replied letting out a sigh and turning so he could face Renos "it was amazing, the dazzling light and the creatures that I saw, it was awe inspiring!" he tried to get up but as soon as he stood he stumbled forward and Sonja burst forward to catch him before he fell, placing his arm over her shoulder and one of her own around his waiste. Yukomo just looked over and gave a happy smile to her, and she returned it, but his expression quickly changed back to a serious one "I was confronted by two hooded figures, one who I have no idea of his name, and another who calls himself Axel. I also came in contact with strange beings that I thought could only exist in myth. Beings without hearts, and beings that spawned from those without hearts… I don't know exactly what the white ones were called, but I do know the black ones are called heartless— those who lack a heart." Renos let out an annoyed little noise and a chuckle thinking back to the fool who had dared to hit his friend into the river, but said nothing. "and since the white ones don't really have an existence or anything really, they just are I don't know what to call them…"
"Sounds like nobody important then" said Sonja without missing a beat, closing her eyes and breathing in deeply.

"That's it!" exclaimed Yukomo clenching one hand into a fist then bringing it up to about his chest "they can be called nobodies. But I think we need simpler names for these things, that way we don't sound like total morons if we talk about them."

Renos brought his arms out, hands open in a gesture almost as if he were saying to just move on with things "so how about we call them shadow and light? That sounds pretty normal if you ask me… not that we're normal or anything but still!"
"A perfectly normally abnormal bunch" Sonja said with a smile in an upbeat tone.

"exactly, and together we can fight this thing and keep it from taking our worlds heart and consequently devouring our entire existence!"

There was a long pause amongst the group, and then Sonja and Renos's jaws dropped a bit. And as if they were programmed to do so, at the same time they let out a curt and confused "What!"
