Kay. I forgot what I was going to put here…um…one of those days.

I don't own KH2, Final Fantasy or etc.

Chapter 9

(Cloud)

The rain was a bit odd for Hollow bastion. It rained but rarely. Still, it was warm rain and gave him something to think about besides just how awful his days…yes, days…had gone.

Things had gone down hill with the appearance from the odd heartless, though Goofy had shown back up to One) Donald was dead. Two) the odd heartless had somehow appeared on the boat then stopped dead while fighting an Organization member, with Sora no where to be found…

"Vincent, This Zaetyne she was a heartless right?"

"Yes, and no."

"Huh?" Maybe it was his headache, but ha Vincent just said both 'yes' and 'no'. You could only be heartless or have a heart right?

"Zaetyne is the no body of the original Key bearer. She's got half-a-heart and no more."

"Original Key Bearer?"

Vincent nodded. "Zaetyne's Original was split when she first got the key blade, at 15. Since then it was custom for The Key bearer to split."

"Why would anyone want to do that?"

"I never said it was a wanted change. And most of the No bodies, living forever, were treated poorly. But Zaetyne most of all."

"Why?"

"She killed her Original."

That stopped all thought in Cloud's head. Until the questions started. Then he couldn't sort one from another.

(Anti-Sora/ Sora)

It had to get out of Port Royal. The heartless were thin and Sora would not let him hurt people, not that It really cared, and most of the time It didn't listen, but fighting with Sora constantly was draining energy. Energy that was getting harder and harder to replace.

Sighing, It gave the control back to Sora, in bits and pieces, too tired to care what Sora thought, or how much he grumbled.

As for Sora, he was jumpy, edgy. Did anyone know what he was doing? What he had done? He wanted to avoid Donald and Goofy, or whatever was left of them after the wreck. He was avoiding people, and wondering just how he was going to get away from Port Royal, though this was probably the best place for him.

"Look at me," He told himself quietly. "I'm a pirate now."

And Murderer. He thought negatively. Thinking what his other half, his other, other half- he'd almost forgotten Roxas- had done to those people made him shudder.

Unfortunately, two people overheard him. And exchanged glances, before slipping away down an ally.

Twilight Keeper

Sorry the chap is so short, but it's hot and I've really wanted to just sit down and type- 80 degree nights…ha, that's hot…at least that's how it feels.

I've also worked my self in a nice and major tangle and need to fix it.

So that's a big deterrent, but I will type, even if the chapters shrink considerably. I think the next chapter will solely be Sora, but I can't say for sure until I sit down and type it. Until the next one, I hope your summer going well, bye.

P.S I had posted this chapter, read it, saw like a dozen typos- big typos- had to take it down and fix it. Ugh…well, I'll have to be more careful. I was typing this chapter at like 3:00 in the morning…so yeah. And as for what Sora did- or what Anti-Sora's eating in earlier chapters- I'll let your imaginations come up with something. That what's old horror movies did, they didn't show you someone dying just the person showing up holding a weapon, or sometimes not, and let your own heads dissect them. It's a neat way to do things. (I.e.-I'll thank my Lit& Film teacher for that tidbit.)
