Hey there cyberspace! I bet you all thought I abandoned this story hehehe... well I did... yeah... but with life going on and nothing to inspire me I decided to put my HOTD story "Stories of the dead" on hiatus for a while and focus on this one! Now I'm sure the 2-years-7-months-and-18-day wait for an update has been eating away at you, so I'm done.

READ ON!


(Namine P.O.V.)

I hate you, Roxas. How could he do this to me? I thought he loved me. I thought he cared about me. I can't believe I-

I felt someone give my leg a heavy nudge, followed by a deep voice saying, "Get up."

I ignored the voice and continued to cry to myself, hoping who ever they were, would go away soon.

"I said get up." the voice commanded, giving my leg another kick, harder this time.

I flinched from the content as a soft whimper escaped my lips. I buried my face in my hand deeper into my lap. It was then that whoever was speaking to me got irritated . I felt a pair of strong hands grab hold of my arms and pull me up and slam me against the wall. I gave a sudden cry of pain as the hard brick surface of the wall dug into my skin. Just as sudden my attacker grabbed my forearms and pride my hands away from my face. I quickly closed my eyes and turned my head, not wanting whoever it was to see my face the way it is.

"That's better," the man purred mischievously, "Now I can see that pretty face of yours."

I could feel the bile begin to rise in my mouth. Was he going to...? "W-w... what do y-you... w-want?"

"It's not nice not to look someone in the eyes when they're talking to you." he whispered in my ear. His husky voice made me shiver with fear as i slowly turn to him. I slowly opened my eyes to meet a pair of golden amber eyes. His eyes stared back at my pale blue ones with a mischievous glint that made my skin crawl. "Wow," he purred, "You are beautiful."

"W-who are you?" I asked, just above a whisper, a feeling a familiarity pulling at me.

"Name's Vanitas," he smirked darkly, "and today's your lucky day."

As I open my mouth to speak, Vanitas crushes his lips to mine, sticking his tongue in my mouth. I felt him smirk through the kiss as his tongue slid around mine. I tried to fight him off, struggling to get free, but he just kissed harder and pressed his body closer to mine. I was able to get my left hand free, as I reached for something in my bag. I finally got a hold of what I was looking for. I pressed the tip of the barrel to his head, freezing his movement. He removed his tongue from my mouth and gave me one last hard kiss before backing away.

"Hey, I was only trying to help," he defended with a smirk, holding his hands up in front of him, "Cant blame a guy for tryin'."

I cocked the gun in my hands and aimed it at his head.

"Okay, I guess you can," he chuckled, smirking from ear to ear. Suddenly his eyes glanced down at my hands.

They were shaking on the handle of the gun. Terrified thoughts ran through my head. What if I accidentally pulled the trigger? I didn't want to hurt him, I mean sure this guy was a creep, but I didn't want to kill him!I tried to steady the gun, aiming at him as his eyes shot back to me in a mocking glance. "Don't move," I threatened weakly, watching as he relaxed. Those bright golden eyes sending chills down my spine. Then, before I could even attempt to fight back, the gun was out of my hands and aiming at my chest. That permanent smirk on his face looked more like a mocking sneer now.

"Now then what's a girl like you, doin' with a gun like this, I wonder," the man, Vanitas, spoke tenderly, his words laced with poison. He raised an eyebrow, as if waiting for me to answer.

"M-my dad gave it t-to me," I forced out, hoping that telling the truth would save my life, "He said t-that he wanted me to b-be able to protect mys-self from my boyfriend."

"Aaw, does Boo leave marks?" Vanitas taunted, pretending to care in that sarcastic way.

"N-no!" I frowned, glaring at him with a new-found anger, "Roxas isn't abusive! He's just..." Why was I protecting him? Roxas just broke my heart by sleeping with one of my best friends in the hallway, and I was more worried that his reputation would be marred than my life?

"Wait," the gun dipped in my attacker's hand, his chest bubbling as if he was trying not to laugh, "Rox... Roxas is your boyfriend?"

"Y...yes?" I questioned myself. was he? He just cheated on me... Should I still...?

"So you were gonna, what, pistol whip him and threaten to blast his balls off when he cheats on you?" he laughed. It made my stomach churn just hearing it, but the sick feeling didn't hide that my eyes began to water as somewhat else told me what just happened. Slowly his laughing began to die down, realization dawning on his face, "No way... He really did cheat on you! That's why you're sitting here crying- you caught him in the act!" I couldn't help it. His twisted laughter was the straw that broke the camel's back. Tears spilled from my eyes again as I lunged forward, burying my face in his chest. I didn't care that this guy had just forced himself on me. I didn't care that he had a gun in his hand, or that he'd probably take advantage of me now. I just wanted to cry, and for someone to hold me. I was sobbing in his strong chest, when I flinched, feeling two strong arms wrap around me. This is it, I thought to myself, He's gonna- My eyes shot open as I hear a soft humming. I looked up at him slowly, his face tilted up to the ceiling, his black hair covering his face- save for the lips that were just against her's. And before she could utter a word... he was singing...

"Embrace me my angel,
whose eyes enlightens my world."

His voice was so soft... So gentle...

"Let me feel your golden hair,
so soft so beautiful."

I blushed as a tear rolled down my cheek, feeling his hand running through my blond hair, as if he was talking about me in the song.

"Take my hand and follow me,
to the realms of silence."

I leaned into him more, my lips quivering, as I took in the lyrics he sang.

"Let the light of all lights devour us.
Spread out your wings,
and take me to this paradise."

He leaned his hand back down, his golden eyes slowly opening again. I don't know why, but I couldn't fight it. My body moved on its own. I could only register what had happened, after the warmth spread through my body. I had just kissed this man. This man who had just forced himself on me... And I liked it... I could feel his lips curling into a smirk as his lips molded to mine. His touch, his scent, everything about him filled my senses. Then I jumped as he grabbed my butt, regaining control of my body and forced myself away from him quickly. I pressed my back against the wall, trying to use my hair as a shield as my face flushed with embarrassment and shame.

"Damn and things were just getting good," he smirked, stretching his muscled arms. My eyes traveled to the gun, stuck in his waistband, which made him smirk more. "You want this?" he teased, grabbing himself.

I looked away with revulsion, "You're disgusting!"

"Yeah, well, you look the part," he taunted, a wave a hurt washing over me, listening to his footsteps as he walked away, "Sorry, but girls crying over boyfriends isn't my thing. Try and keep that pretty face of yours the way it is though. I might come back for it later."

I waited until I couldn't hear his footsteps anymore, before collapsing to the ground, hugging myself in relief and horror. I was safe! But... He said he'd be back... The idea was both terrifying and exciting... and I don't know why...


"I told myself I wont miss you, but I re-member. WHAT IT FEELS LIKE INSIDE YOOOOU- wait was it inside, or beside? Eh, whatever," The raven haired teen shrugged, shouting the song as he left class, people looking at him like he belonged in a mental institute. Of course, though, Vanitas knew this about the teen already. It was... nice, being here with his friend. Vanitas didn't have many of those, so it meant something to him. Looking around, nothing really changed at this school. The people acted the same, the classes were still shit, and the girl's wanted to fuck- whether they knew it yet or not. He slapped Jason upside the head when he grew bored of his singing. Before he could complain, the bell rang.

"Woo! Lunchtime!" Jason whooped.

"Even after all these years, lunch is still your favorite class," Vanitas smirked, chuckling.

"Not completely true," he pouted, "I also like sex."

"What, sex ed?" Van blinked, frowning in disapproval.

"I meant what I said," Jason smirked, winking.

Vanitas laughed, those around him shivering with fear. His smirk spread more as he glared at the sheep they passed by, Jason joining the glaring party. They made their way to the crowded Cafeteria- well for them it wasn't crowded, since everyone in the room parted like the red sea, but for everyone else it was jam-packed. Vanitas looked around, frowning to himself.

"What?" Jason asked, grabbing a few slices of pepperoni pizza, four cheeseburgers, and some fried chicken. For a school where everyone damn near looks like a Greek God, they had a LOT of junk food. That's highschool for you, he thought to himself.

"Just lookin' for someone," Vanitas had an all too familiar glint in his eyes.

"The girl that you was`tryin' to molest you in the staircase?" Jason blinked, throwing some ones at the woman at the cash register, before following his friend, stuffing a large bottle in both his front pockets.

"Yeah, her," Vanitas' lips curled devilishly, "She and I got unfinished business."

"I bet," Jason laughed, heading to an empty table in the back, "In the bowchica-wow-wooooow section."

Vanitas chuckled, sitting one seat away from Jason. He watched as the raven haired teen pulled the large bottles out of his pockets, one of ranch dressing and the other of extra-hot hot sauce. He grabbed the curved dish the pizza was in, uncapping the bottle of hot sauce and dumping the entire thing on the pizzas, before putting the plate in the space between them. As if rehearsed, they lifted their feet at the same time, slamming them down on the table together, grabbed a slice of the deadly pizza, and took a bite. It was peace. They watched the wannabes try to play football through the window, their backs to the rest of the cafeteria. Jason poured some of the ranch into the pizza dish in the corner, dipping it and eating, while Vanitas pulled out his Ipod, playing Whore by In the moment.

And so, this moment of silence for the whores in the room ended when a voice shouted, "Jason!"

"Hm?" he looked up, his eyes wide, like a deer in the headlights, a piece of pizza stuffed in his mouth. He tried to swallow it down before the girl got there, but...

"Yeah, you swallow that load, bitch," Vanitas teased in a demanding groan, making Jason choke on his pizza, trying to force it down as Vanitas moaned, the girl walking over to them with a strange look on her face.

"You bastard," Jason growled, choking as he wiped hot sauce from his face, glaring at a triumphant looking Van.

"So you're swallowing loads now?" she said, "And here I thought my boyfriend was straight- my relationship has been nothing but a lie!"

"Whatever!" Jason smirked, pulling the girl down on his lap.

She squealed, giggling as she tried to escape his tickling.

Van looked her over, taking in her light skin, soft voice, short black hair styled to the side. Van couldn't deny that with those bright ocean blue eyes, milky skin, and lovely smile... well... she was fuckable... And he was kind of ticked off that his so-called best friend was holding this little beauty for himself! We could've shared, He silently pouted.

Jason looked over at his friend, grinning as he and the girl he tickled on his lap laughed. "What?" he said, confused as to the lame look on the dark-haired teens face.

"And when were you gonna tell me you had a pretty little thing on the side?" Van stated, raising an eyebrow as he glanced at the girl, "We coulda shared."

Said girl gaped at what was being said.

"What, Xion?" Jason frowned, "Nah, dude, this one's all mine."

She frowned, sitting up on Jason's lap to point disapprovingly, "Sora! I cannot believe you just said that! I am so telling Kairi when she get's here!"

The two guys shared a look of confusion, before Jason asked, "Who's Kairi?"

"How the fuck am I suppose to know?" Van rolled his eyes, before glaring at the girl, "And my names not Sora- that wuss isn't as sexy as this." He gave a smirk, gesturing to himself.

"Wait... what?" the poor girl was confused, looking to Jason for answers.

"right, sorry," Jason grinned, chuckling, "Van, this is Xion. Xion, this is my best bud, Vanitas."

"Nice to meet you," Xion managed a sheepish smile, "And sorry, you just look like someone I know."

"S'whatever," Van forced one on his face, though the narrowing of his eyes did nothing to stop the chill going down the poor girl's spine.

"What's going on over here?" a tall guy with shoulder-length silver hair frowned at the three of them, noticing Xion, "Xion, you know these people.

"Oh, Riku! There you are!" Xion grinned, trying to explain the situation, before Vanitas interrupted.

"Our cue," he spoke gruffly as he stood up, heading for the door.

"What?" the raven-haired girl looked only slightly disappointed to see her boyfriend and friend were leaving.

"Yup! Sorry babe, but it's his time a the month," Jason said as he kissed her neck, sending the silver-haired intruder a look that said 'yeah, I'm hittin' dat ass!' HE smirked as the guy glared him down, before returning his attention to Xion, "I'll just see ya later, 'kay?"

"Okay," Xion grinned, waving goodbye as Jason caught up with Vanitas.

When the two of them were outside, Van glanced at his friend, "You coulda stayed. Wouldn't want your girlfriend to get snatched up."

"Oh my god..." Jason looked at him with wide-eyes, "You're jealous!"

"What?!" Van scoffed, squinting at his companion.

"It all makes sense!" he concluded, "You're jealous of her, because now you think I wont go 'on the prowl' with you anymore, now that she's takin' up most of my time! You're jealous because she took over the numero uno spot, aren't'chu?!"

"First off, who the fuck says 'On the prowl'? This isn't the 70's and you're not a cougar- at least, the thought is still under investigation," Vanitas growled out, before smirking at his comment, "Second, I'm not jealous. And even if I was, the only thing there is to be jealous of, is the fact that you get to fuck her whenever you want."

"Well you're in luck, cause we're not datin'," Jason stuffed his hands into his pockets as he explained, "Met her while I was walkin' the mutt through the park. Was hittin' on her when she explained she's got feelin's for that silvery douche that ruined our meal."

"You're kidding?"

"Nope," he popped his lips on the 'P', before continuing, "It was kinda sad and pathetic-"

"You're sad and pathetic," Vanitas commented.

"-and she was all teary eyed-"

"Every girl that looks at your dick get teary eyed," Van snickered.

"Van!"

"Keep it coming, I can do this all day!" he laughed at his friends expense.

Jason shook his head, joining in in the laughter.

The laughter got harder, the two of them looking like asylum escapees. People looked at them in fear, shrinking away from the pair. But not everyone seemed to take the laughter as a hint to leave. Instead three students walked up to them, their leader having a smirk on his face. "Well, well, looks like we got a couple of clowns here. Didn't know the circus was in town."

"Huh?" Van's laughter instantly stopped at the boy's comment.

He looked the three students over, analyzing their posture, clothing, and attitude. First was the loud mouth trying to be cool. He wore a black beanie on his head, so Van shouldn't tell what color his hair was, but that was the best looking part of this kid. The rest was just... wierd. The boy was tall, but despite this he wore baggy dark blue jeans that obviously didn't fit him and were being held up with only a belt with a skull for the buckle, A small light blue vest that stopped an inch above his belly button, old looking black boots without laces, and a sleeveless grey trench coat with the coat popped up. Then there was the giant gorilla. He was taller then the first kid by a few inches, and three times as thick. Well, this kid definitely eats his Wheaties, Vanitas mused to himself. He wore a red tank top that showed off his large arms, a chain necklace with a lightning bolt on it, baggy black sweatpants, and yellow running shoes. Vanitas had to admit that with his short dark hair and tanned skin he looked a bit intimidating... but the yellow shoes threw everything off. Finally, was-

"Jason, what the fuck?" Van looked over to his friend, who was quite obviously flirting with the third student- a short, petite-looking girl with white hair that covered her left eye, leaving her other eye to show they were red. She wore a simple blue tank top, beige cargo capris, and light violet slip on shoes.

"What?" Jason shrugged, before returning to smirk at the girl, "So anyways, I don't think I got your name, doll."

"Fujin," the girl answers, looking up at Jason with a stoic expression, despite her cheeks tinting pink.

"Fujin, huh?" Jason's was smooth and full of lusty promises he knew he could deliver, "Mind if I call you Fuu instead?"

Fuu nodded almost timidly.

"Well Fuu, would you mind goin' over to that bench over there?" he purred, caressing her cheek as he gently stroked his thumb under her eye as he slowly moved his face closer to his own, "Wouldn't wanna accidentally harm that pretty face when I beat the shit outta your friends." His lips grazing hers, "Be good and I'm make you break that stoic look for a night."

The snow-haired girl quickly walked her way to the bench without a word, sitting there red faced.

Jason smirked at Vanitas as the two of them cracked their knuckles. Van took his black hoodie off, stretching his tense muscles for the coming fight. Meanwhile, Jason took his leather jacket off, tossing it on the ground, before removing his hat. a wave of raven feathered hair fell down to his shoulders, covering his face. He smirked behind the hair shield, pulling out a hair cream, scooping some out and running his hands together,before running them through his hair, pulling it all back into a a ponytail, revealing that save for the hair on the top of his head, his head was shaved. A devilish glint entered his eyes.

Seifer glared darkly at Jason, getting in a fighting stance with his gorilla, "I'm gonna make you regret those words."

"Yeah, Seifer's gonna bust you up like a pinata, ya know!" Rai smirked.

"Oh, please do," Jason cooed, before he and Vanitas charged in. The two womanizer's faces held a twisted grin.


Sora sighed, a dejected look on his face. He looked at his lunch as his friends talked around him, not really interested in anything they had to say. He was more concerned with the fact that his brother was nowhere to be found. What if he went home and their mother asked if he went to school? Their mom was just too scary some times to lie to about this. The brunette sighed again, this time gaining the attention of his auburn haired girlfriend next to him.

"Sora, what's wrong?" she asked with concern. She noticed he'd been like this all day so far. It was starting to bother her.

The rest of the group seemed to agree as they looked at the brunette with equal looks of worry.

Sora looked at his friends, giving a weak smile to them, "It's nothing guys, it's just... my brother..."

"What? Is Roxas okay?" Riku frowned.

"No, not Roxas, my big brother," Sora said.

The others thought he was being smart, before realizing he was serious.

"Wait..." Kair blinked.

"YOUR BIG BROTHER?!" the group shouted at him, making Sora jump in surprise.

"Who's big brother?" Namine asked, sitting across from her sister, trying to put a smile on her face, When her sister gave her the 'Twin Telepathy' look.

What's wrong?

I don't want to talk about it.

"Okay later.

Kairi, I don't-

LATER!

Namine sighed in defeat, rolling her eyes, before looking at Sora, "You were saying?"

"Right, so me and Roxas have this older brother that's... well... that is to say he's..." Sora was having a difficult time trying to word what his brother was like nicely.

"A fucking asshole prick that can't keep it in his pants?" Roxas said as him and his friends Axel and Demyx joined the group. He smiled at Namine, leaning down to kiss her lips gently.

Namine froze under him, her body tense as his lips pressed softly to her own. She didn't kiss back, which confused her 'boyfriend' as he sat down, but he didn't think anything of it. She probably wasn't feeling well. Namine noticed her sister eyeing her strangely and looked away.

"Come on, Rox, Van's not that bad," Sora defended with a frown.

Wait...

Namine's head shot up in horror as she recognized the name, hoping it wasn't who she thought it was.

"Van?" Xion tilted her head in thought, "Like... Vanitas? or...?"

"Yeah, how'd you know?" Sora looked a bit shocked, not knowing that anyone knew him.

The group looked at Xion as she explained how she came to the cafeteria earlier than the others to try and convince her boyfriend to stay and meet them. "He's usually sitting alone, but today he was sitting with someone. I almost thought it was Sora, I mean the only difference was his hair color and eyes- but I mean Sora could have just dyed his hair and put contacts on to avoid the fan girls."

"Hey that's-" Sora was going to protest, before giving it some thought, "-Not a bad idea actually."

"Don't even think about it," Kairi stated blandly.

"Aaaw!"

The others laughed at this, but Kairi was watching her twin. She saw the color Drain from her body as Xian described what Sora's brother looked like. The red-haired sister tried to wave to grab the blond's attention, back she was so off in space that nothing was pulling her back. It was then that Kairi watched her sister's hand slowly move to her lips, stroking them gently as a whirlwind of emotions raced across her face. Realization hit her, but before she could voice it, a loud thud! came from the window. People looked to the window with wide-eyes.

"Oh, no," Sora groaned.

"FIGHT!"

"Damnit!" Roxas growled getting up with Sora to go stop the fight, before someone ended up dead.

Obviously the group followed purely to help... right...

(about five minutes earlier...)

"Isn't this ROMANTIC!" Seifer smirked, swinging at Jason, who ducked, tackling the gorilla known as Rai, pushing him back a few steps.

Vanitas smirked dangerously, his fist connecting with Seifer's jaw, snapping his turned head to face him woozily, staggering to stay on his feet, before Van's fist slammed into the guy's stomach, forcing the wind out of his mouth. He gritted his teeth, trying to breathe, before Van grabbed his face, forcing him to look up at the smirking psycho."You wanna know what God really told Moses when he wrote the Commandments?" Seifer spat blood and saliva on his shoe as a reply. "And God said onto Moses, 'My first Commandment: Keep thy pimp hand strong!'."

"Wha-"

Before he could finish his sentence, Vanitas bitchslapped him hard enough to knock him on the ground.

Meanwhile, Jason was dodging the haymakers the muscular teen threw at him. Each step was as graceful as the last. The smirking teen laughed, throwing insults at the enraged gorilla, before seeing an opening and landing a heavy kick to his gut. While we was disgruntled, Jason tried to lift him, but he was heavier than he thought. "Van!" he grunted, "A little help here?!"

Van ran over, helping him lift the large muscle head, before throwing him into the nearby window with a heavy thud!. "Damn, JAson," Van panted from having to lift the guy, "Why do you always have to pick the biggest dude?"

"Eh," Jason groaned, stretching his sore back, "I like a challenge."

Van looked up in time to see an enraged Seifer run at them, before ducking under a punch, unloading a quick one-two on him, before forcing him to the ground and beating his skull in.

Jason went over to pull him off, only to stop as he noticed the gorilla get up and charge at them, planting himself firmly and downing a judo throw to use his own momentum to lift him off the ground, dropping him on his back onto his waiting knee. A cry of pain escaped the tanned followers lips as Jason roared in victory, as if he was Bane doing a back breaker on Batman. This time when he turned to go pull Van off of the poor loser, someone else beat him to it.

"Come on, Van, that's enough," the brunette shouted, trying to pull his much stronger brother off of Seifer, "Your still on probation- you're gonna get arrested again!"

Vanitas growled, getting up and throwing Sora off of him.

"Van!" his other little brother growled, storming over to them.

It was then that Vanitas realized people were piling out of the cafeteria into a crowd. He recognized Xion- Jason's 'girlfriend' with a group of people, before stopping. A smirk found his lips as he spotted the blond girl from before, hiding behind a red-head that looked just like her, their eyes glued to him. Twins, huh? It was then that he remembered something...

"Roxas isn't abusive! He's just..."

"Rox... Roxas is your boyfriend?"

"Y...yes?"

"No way... He really did cheat on you! That's why you're sitting here crying- you caught him in the act!"

Van watched his brother come closer with a snarl on his lips, smirking wider as an idea popped in his head. He spread his arms out, walking over to his brothers as Roxas helped Sora up. "Roxas, just the pest I wanted to-" Van didn't bother finishing his sentence. Instead he punched the poor unsuspecting brother square in the jaw, sending him to the ground, the crowd gasping in shock.

"So yeah, here's my number, call me when you're ready for speech class," Jason crooned to the blushing Fuu, handing her his number, before noticing what just happened, sprinting over to the and doing a power slide to the downed boy. "DAAAAAAAAAAAMN! YOU GOT KNOCKED THE FUCK OUT!"

(Namine P.O.V.)

I watched in shock with the others as Van punched Roxas. He was sent to the ground and wasn't moving. Whispers around me begging answers if Roxas was okay. In all honesty I was concerned as well. I still cared for him, even if he did hurt me. But as I glance over at the retreating figures of Vanitas and the other boy, he sends me that twisted smirk that makes me want to throw up. Did he do that for me? no, he couldn't have. Why would he? It's not like I asked me to, or even wanted him to. But still... the small, satisfied smile on my face, doesn't agree much with the worried thoughts in my heard...


And there it is! My story! Can you believe, I finally posted something. Now there was this one piece I cut out and had to re-edit to fit nicely, mostly because the part I cut, I wasn't so sure would fit, but yeah. I'll post it so you guys can read it, just give me a sec...

"What's going on over here?" a tall guy with shoulder-length silver hair frowned at the three of them, noticing Xion, "Xion, you know these people?"

"Oh, Riku! There you are!" Xion grinned, trying to explain the situation.

"These people?" Vanitas whispered to Jason.

"I know, what're we, black?" Jason spoke with offense. Just then a black male walked by. "'Sup, my nigga?" Jason said, fist bumping the guy as he passed by.

"What up, J?" he said. returning the bump.

"Nothin' but cracka ass bitches that need to learn they place," Jason smirked.

"Psh, I hear ya," the token black man nodded in agreement, "Let me know if you need hands- the brothers got yo back, Son."

"Word- I catch ya later, homez."

"Duecez." And with that the black man left, Riku and Xion turning to them.

"What's so funny?" she asked, frowning.

"Nothing," Vanitas and Jason snickered.

Riku glared at Jason, sitting down across from them silently. Van looked from the silverette, to the ravenette, and back; trying to figure out if something was up. He leaned into Jason, whispering loud enough for everyone at the table to hear, "I think you have a new gay lover."

"Me too," Jason said back, causing Xion to giggle, while Riku's glare hardened.

"Well babe, as fun as it's been," Jason leaned up to kiss Xion's neck, eyeing Riku as he did in that 'Yeah bitch, I'm hittin' dat ass!' kinda way, "But we gotta go."

"Really?" Xion frowned, "But my friends are gonna be here soon- I really want you to meet them."

"I'd love to, babe- really, I would," Jason smiled, "But Van's claustrophobic."

"Yeah, four's a crowd, unless it's an orgy," Van smirked, "If it ain't it's too much."

"Alright, I'll see you-"

"Van?" the dreaded voice spoke with excitement and surprise.

The golden orbs of Vanitas widen in fear and hate as he recognizes the voice, "Run."

Jason jumped out of his seat, tossing a yelping Xion onto the table, before him and Van sprinted for the door. A brown flash tackled Van to the ground, Jason looking back at his companion, "Dueces!" and ran off.

Traitor!, Vanitas thought to himself. He looked down to see the cause of his current predicament. "Get off me!" He growled, kicking the boy off of his legs.

The brunette grunted in pain, releasing the enraged sibling, "Ow, Van! What the hell?!"

"Knock your shit off, I'm still pissed at you for gettin' me in this shit!" he glared, standing up to dust himself off.

Sora frowned, "Well excuse me for not wanting you to go back to jail!"

"Sora," Riku frowned at his best friend, "You know this guy?"

"What guy?" A feminine voice asked. Van turned to see a very sexy girl strutting over to his table. She put her tray down as she looked over to Sora, but saw- "Ohmigod... There's TWO OF YOU?!" Kairi looked in in horror, before thinking about it, realization dawning on her face, "Actually, that's kinda sexy..." She gave a seductive smile as she thought to herself all the fun she could have with two Soras.

"Kairi," Sora deadpanned, looking stoically at his girlfriend, "Get those thoughts out of your head now. There's only one of me."

"Well now, I know that look," Vanitas smirked sexily, smoothly maneuvering his way over to the auburn haired girl. He wrapped his strong arm around her waist, puling her hard against him, "Names Vanitas. And just what can I do to make your dreams come true tonight?"

"Van!"

Kairi felt her stomach fluttered, a swoon wafting over her as he touched her. He was definitely nothing like her Sora. she giggled flirtatiously, "Sora, aren't you going to introduce us to your friend?"

He rolled his eyes, before grinning cheekily, seeing the confused looks on the rest of their friends faces as they joined the table. He wrapping an arm around his older brother, "Guys, this is Van- my big brother!"

Time stood still.

The group of friends looked from Sora, to Van, then back. There was definitely a resemblance. Their facial features, the way their hair stood out. But also the obvious differences, like their eyes, the happy-go-lucky attitude Sora had, verses the hateful and twisted aura that seemed to radiate off of the taller brother.

"Your... brother?" Riku frowned, "I thought Roxas was your only brother- how do I not know this guy?!"

"Well, uh, you see," Sora smiled sheepishly, "Van's only my half brother. He's been living with his dad in-"

"None of your damn business," Van finished.

Riku glared at the ravenette, not liking his threatening tone.

"So, Van!" a bubbly brunette girl bounced, "What made you move out here?"

PIECES!
