Naomi's POV in 3rd person limited
Naomi thought about the many times she had with Rath as she listened to the fall of rain. She started to remember the time she had met her friend. How she stuck up for her and all but now she was in a dungeon room with no place to go.
The stone walls were wet and damp and the metal door that held her in the wretched place was locked. She sometimes pondered why she held out so long but pictures of her friend entered her mind. Her heart remained strong throughout the year and it never seemed to weaken. Naomi sighed as she paced around the dank room.
Her pacing stopped as time went by and slumped against a corner of the room. The only light that dared enter the room was either moonlight or daylight hours but the sun never really shined since it rained all the time. During her time there, Naomi had recognized all thirteen organization members and the one that had taken her… Saix. She knew that they wanted her heart but she never lost hope.
Naomi waited in her corner to see who would check on her. She didn't know why they checked on her but they did and also saw her when they gave her food or such. They never let a nobody come check on her because she would end up killing the thing or however many nobodies they sent. The girl decided to brighten the room by practicing her light magic.
Her palms were brought together and she focused her mana. Naomi became stronger in magic and sometimes she would launch a ball of magic at the organization member that came. Of course it would be cancelled out but the only success was when a lightning bolt struck Demyx. He was sent back a couple of steps but Naomi didn't dare step forward towards the door. It was quite funny though but he zipped at her and whacked her on the back of her head with his sitar. Naomi gave a shudder at the thought of the monstrous bump the sitar left. From that time on she never attempted to try and escape but instead tried to be friendlier.
That attempt never worked since they had no emotions and because Larxene started to catch on and did the exact opposite. Their conversations were so hateful that it's a wonder how Naomi put up with her. She got were so hateful that it's a wonder how Naomi put up with her. She got along with some of the people since they would have a small convenient conversation. Even if it did spoil evil plans or such.
Naomi wondered who would be the one to come as a light ball was in her hand. It brightened up the room and the atmosphere around her. She was too deep in thought to hear the heavy clink at the door. The heavy metal door opened and revealed a person in a black cloak.
There was a gentle prod on Naomi's back and she whirled around to find a keyblade. "Oh it's just you Roxas," she said but she looked up to see Zexion, Axel, Marluxia, Demyx, and Saix. "What are all of you doing in my room?" Naomi asked a bit nervous of them.
"We were ordered by Xemnas to take you on a tour of the world that never was," Saix said sourly.
"Some nerve! I was here for a year and just NOW you give me a tour!" Naomi screamed out but Demyx just threw a clump of clothes at her.
"Get dressed, we'll be back in ten minutes," Axel said as everyone left the room.
"So stupid," Naomi mumbled as she took off her white shirt and blue capri that she previously had. She proceeded to get dressed as she peered at the new outfit. The outfit seemed that it was meant for battle but she started to change. It all started as she pulled her waist-length hair into a tight bun. For once people could actually see the back of her head.
Naomi went on to pulling a black jerkin over her head and gave a deep scowl at it. 'This makes me look fat!' she thought and then tried a leather waist cincher around her waist. 'At least this gives me my figure back,' the girl sighed and continued to get dressed. Naomi slid on the black capri and pulled on the knee high black high-heeled boots. She tied the laces and looked at the last piece of clothing. Her hand reached the shoulder part of the cloth and straightened it out.
'It's one of the cloaks,' Naomi thought as she remembered what each of the members wore. 'What are they up to?'
"Are you finished yet," the man with the 'x' on his face asked.
"Shut up and leave me alone Saix! Can't a girl get some time alone to get dressed?" Naomi yelled back at the man who had kidnapped her in the first place. "I'll be out in a sec," she added for the other members to hear.
During her year long stay Naomi had warmed up to the people knowing they wouldn't harm her. She knew of their dirty deeds and how they wanted her heart, but she wanted to help them out. They just wanted her heart but the kingdom hearts had been sealed and she didn't want to save everyone. Somehow she would have to make an ingenious plan. For Naomi though it would be almost impossible but she would stick to her plan since she was stubborn.
"What's taking so long," Marluxia asked as he barged in.
"I don't want to wear this," Naomi said stubbornly.
"You better wear it," Marluxia ordered with a smug grin. "Or else the nobodies will attack you for your heart and we'll have to be engaged in a pointless battle." After he said that the man shouldered his scythe as to point out his point.
"Dont you already intimidate or control the nobodies?" Naomi asked as she slid the cloak over her head. It wasn't too bad on her but she didn't want to look like an organization member.
"Yes but you put the cloak on anyways didnt you?" the assassin asked as he placed his hood over his head. "Put your hood on, we're going now"
"Whatever man," Naomi said annoyed as she headed out the door where the other four organization members were waiting. "Let's go."
They all advanced towards the exit of the dungeon and towards the town.
