Here we go with the 8th chapter to this non-stop action packed train ride!
Day 240: Namine's Message
The sky is blue with clouds looming in the sky, citizens were walking around town and others were busy setting up for today's festival. The current town Xion were in is called "Twilight Town." Xion had her hands to her sides as she watched the citizens get busy by preparing for the festival. She looked up at the designs they were preparing for and it looked like the town is preparing for Halloween, she smiled to herself, Halloween is the one holiday that everyone would go out late at night and knock on strangers doors then say the famous line. "Trick or Treat!" Xion started walking around the town a little bit and she saw Hayner, Pence and Olette placing decorative bats on buildings, poles and mailboxes. Those three never even rested to take a short break at all. Ollete wiped the sweat from her forehead a d stood up off the ground. "Phew... who knew decorating this town would be such hard work!" said Olette taking a seat on the ground as Hayner and Pence continued working. "Come on Olette, we can't let Sifer and his gang beat us to doing good deeds you know!" said Hayner grabbing a ghost out the box of decorations. "We have to make sure our town knows how awesome we are!" Pence nodded in agreement to Hayner, he bent down and grabbed a pumpkin out the box of decorations "I agree with Hayner, we HAVE to do this Olette." said Pence as he handed her the decoration.
Xion bit her lower lip, she wanted to help them but her mission was to track down a heartless and kill it. She was not to interfer with anyone in this town or anything. "They need help..but.. I can't help them or..." her voice trailed off as she shook her head no. "Screw it, i'm not going to pass them up like this." said Xion walking over to them in a steady yet fast pace with a smile on her face as she appraoched them. Olette was the first one to spot Xion coming, she quickly got off the ground. "Here comes one of the town's folks, maybe she wants to see if we're actually doing this or bluffing.." she said to herself. Hayner turned around and saw Xion approaching them, he smiled back while looking over her in her all black attire. Xion looked at Hayner as she was only a few feet away from the trio, she noticed Hayner wore beige pants with a matching vest and a black shirt. Her eyes drifted over to Olette, Olette wore a peach shirt with flowers on it and some beige shorts. Pence wore a red, black and white jersey with some blue jeans. "Hey" said Hayner "You're one of the town's folks aren't you? Don't worry, we'll have everything finished in two hours from now." Xion's smile faded a bit as she was now close enough to them. "O-Oh no, I'm not one of the town's people so don't worry." Pence sighed in relief "That's good to know. Hey um.. what's your name?" Xion thought on it for a moment before speaking. "My name is Xion Davis but you can just call me Xion." Olette smiled at her "Nice to meet you Xion, my name is Olette, and these two are Hayner and Pence." Xion's eyes drifted over to Hayner and Pence before landing on Olette again. "It's ncie to meet all of you." said Xion, Hayner nodded with a sly smile on his face "Yeah, you too!" Xion giggled at his enthusiasm in his voice. "Well can I lend you guys a hand with the decorations?" asked Xion.
Pence's eyes widened a little and he smiled to himself. "Sure! That'll make things go by waaay quicker." said Pence handing Xion one of the boxes they had, Xion grabbed the box from Pence and looked at Olette "Um.. can you come with me? It'll be much faster if there's two of us working over there and two over here." said Xion adjusting the box in her hands. Olette smiled warmly at Xion. "Sure thing Xion, whatever we don't finish in the next hour and fifty-one minutes will just be undone. Come on, we can go to the train station since we finished the downtown area already." Xion looked around a bit "Annd..where's the train station?" asked Xion, she's been here before but she wanted to avoid answering any questions about how well she knows her way around Twilight Town. Olette giggled and pointed to a road that was going up like a hill. "It's over there, come on I'll race you there!" said Olette running off at full speed to the train station. "H-Hey no fair!" said Xion running fter her carefully so she didn't drop anything or fall. Olette looked back at Xion as she was running after her, she quickly pulled out a camera as Xion continued running towards her and snapped a quick picture of her. Xion wondered why she took a picture of her but decided to leave it alone. Olette had just reached the train station, she sat on the stairs as she waited for Xion. Xion had just made it to the train station three minutes after Olette, she gasped lightly as she walked the box over to Olette and sat the box down before sitting down on the ground exhaustedly. Olette grinned before getting up off the stairs, she walked over to the box and pulled out the last remaining ghost and pumpkins "Hey Xion, I'll start decorating on the inside while you down the outside okay?" said Olette walking to the doors of the train station, Xion gave her a thumbs up as she slowy got up off the ground. "Olette hold on." Olette stopped in her tracks and turned around to her. "Yeah Xion?" Xion grabbed a few pumpkins off the ground.
"I'm curious um.. when we were running to the train station.. you took my picture didn't you?" asked Xion making eye contact with her. Olette looked a bit sad but smiled "Yes, I did... was that a bad thing? I'll delete it if you want me too." said Olette. Xion shook her head no while sitting the pumpkins down on the stairs of the train station. "N-No it's not that. I was just wondering why'd you take my picture is all." Olette's sadness faded as she smiled even more. "Well, it's just something I do Xion. I like taking pictures of my friends." said Olette quickly running inside the train station. Xion's eyes widened a little, her heart was beating fast but it was slowly returning to it's original beating pattern. "She likes taking pictures of her friends huh..? Well.. now I have four friends." Xion smiled more to herself as she continued sitting the pumpkins on each side of the steps then she sat some on the ground in front of the stairs, after that she took a mixture of ghost and bats and hung them up on the walls of the train station. "I wonder what Roxas, Axel and Larxene is doing right now." she walked over to the box and grabbed a few more decorations and hung them up on the other side as well, she even wrapped one of the paper bats around the door handles of the train station. "They're probably waiting on me to meet them at our spot as usual.. but if that's the case then.." her eyes drifted up to the top of the train station where she saw a girl with a white organization coat on, take a step back to avoid detection.
Xion was still looking up at the tower when Olette came back outside. "Xion." Xion stopped looking up at the tower and looked at Olette "Yes?" she asked her. Olette opened the train station's door some more and gave an awkward laugh. "C-Can you help me decorate on the inside once you're finished decorating out here?" Xion looked around at all the work she's done and figured she had done more than enough on the outside. "Actually Olette, I'm already done out here, i'll come and help you now." She picked up the box and saw all the decorations were almost all gone. Olette sighed in relief "Thank you Xion." she held the door open for Xion, Xion quickly made her way inside as she said "No problem Olette." Xion sat the box down on one of the benches in the train station, she saw there was a lot of work that needed to be done. "All right Xion, let's get to work!" said Olette grabbing two handful of decorations, Xion pumped her fist in the air and said "Yeah!" As two hours passed, they had finally finished decorating the inside of the train station, their box was completely empty and the only thing that remained inside was a rubber spider. Olette and Xion looked at their work before high fiving one another, the moment they high fived was the moment a shutter was heard 'Click!' they turned around and saw Pence and Hayner with a camera smiling. "You guys!" laughed Olette "I take it you're done too?" said Olette. Hayner nodded "It was easy. I see you two finished too." said Hayner.
Xion looked around again and smiled "Yup! We worked pretty fast together." Pence had grabbed the picture out the caemra as it came out, he handed it to Olette "We can add this to our club house." Olette giggled as she pulled out her picture of Xion carrying the box to the station. "These will make great momentos! We can put them in our treasure box." Hayner nodded his head again "Yeah, but of course, Xion will have to come with us to our club house first." All eyes were on Xion, she smiled and nodded "I'm flatterred, of course I'll go with you guys!" said Xion. They all said in unision "All right!" Hayner looked at Xion once again "Before we take you to our club house, we have to show you something else first." Xion blinked and tilted her head a little bit "Oh.. um.. okay." Hayner, Pence Olette and Xion all had walked out the train station, they kept walking past their club house too. Xion took the rubber spider and put it on Olette's head, this caused Olette to run around screaming, Hayner and Xion stood by her smiling with a peace sign as Pence snapped the picture. Finally they reached the other side of the forest, there was a big metal gate on blocking their way with a keyhole and on the other side of the gate was a mansion. "Here we are." said Hayner, Xion looked at Hayner "Um.. where are we?" asked Xion, Pence placed the picture on the ground "No time to explain, get ready guys!" Hayner quickly stroke a pose with his arms crossed, Olette squatted down between the boys with a big smile on her face and Xion had her arm wrapped around Pence as the camera snapped a picture 'Click! Click!' Two pictures came out the camera a few seconds afterwards. "All right." said Olette walking back to the forest "Time to get back now, it's getting dark." Hayner quickly followed her "Yeah, hey Pence catch up!" said Hayner. Pence looked at Xion and smiled "You're coming with us too aren't you?" said Pence grabbing his camera plus the pictures before running after them. "I'll catch up." said Xion smiling to herself, she turned back around to the mansion only to see the same figure from before. She saw a girl who was the same height as her, her hair was blonde and her eyes were blue, she wore a white Organization cloak. "Hello...Xion" said the girl, Xion stared at her "Um.. who are you?" asked Xion, the girl smiled "My name is Namine." said Namine. "Everything the Organization told you is a lie.. you need to turn against them.. even against your boyfriend Roxas.." Xion's eyes widened a bit in surprise, she put her hands up and took a step back from Namine. "Wait what?" Xion heard a loud 'Bang' it sounded like someone dropping something on a metal floor, Xion looked behind her and looked back at where Namine stood only to see she was gone.
How was that? Hehe, R and R!
