Author's Notes: While stewing over my recent case of writer's block (which seems to be disappearing), I thought abut this story and suddenly found myself wondering what it would sound like from Namine's perspective. This is the result. This is also a one-shot, technically, though I like to think of it as the opposite side of the same story. I wanted to write this before I lost my inspiration, so here it is; enjoy!
Complete
A nobody
Born from darkness
Without a heart
I lived believing these words
A prisoner in a strange world
A strange castle
Ruled by stranger men and women
Nobodies, like me
Searching for their hearts
They told me I was incomplete
That I was merely a shadow of the princess
When I met him, I thought I could change that
No... I only acted like I could change that
But I knew otherwise
He loved her
I was her shadow
I could fool his mind, but not his heart
In the end, he only loved her more
And I was still her shadow
Still alone
Then I met you
And for the first time, I felt
I felt happy
I felt sad
I told you that we were nobodies
I told you we were never meant to exist
I had lived with that knowledge for so long
It had taken root in my mind
And I had taken it for granted
But you knew immediately
Even nobodies have a right to live
Even shadows have to exist
I always thought that nobodies were destined to fade back into darkness
But that couldn't be further from the truth
We are the darkness
We are the shadows
The closer you get to the light...
The greater your shadow becomes...
The world is made up of light and darkness
They are the light
We are the darkness
We can't exist without them...
And they can't exist without us
When I finally accepted this, I realized
I have a heart
But that heart is incomplete
Alone in the dark, I exist
But that isn't enough
I want you here
I want you by my side
Let them share the light
We can share the darkness
Together in the dark, we live
And if we only have each other
That's enough, to be complete
A/N: And there it is! A double-one-shot (If that even exists...?) Namixas that I hope you enjoyed. R&R If you want, or just wait until I get to work on a full-story Namixas. Better yet, review both and keep me writing! ;) (P.S. to furriusmurrius, I'm currently in the process of reading your story, but since it's rather long and I'm going to spending a lot of time writing, don't expect my reviews to come for a little while at least. Also, an extra thanks for being the first person to review my first ever Kingdom Hearts story!)
