HOLY COW 20000+ HITS ON KH: A!

I've never had so many hits. OHMIGOSH! I is happy.

Anyways, I just posted my first lip synching on you tube! I is HAPPY! And yes, it is Kingdom Hearts. Not only that…


TODAY IS MY MOMMY'S BIRTHDAY!

Everybody say, HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOMMY! Or, "Happy Birthday Sulhadahne's mommy", if it feels easier. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

So… I am bored. Hmmm…. What shall I write about today? Hey, I got a review in KHA that asked "You put yourself in the story?" The reviewer was referring to the person who took Tsuki and Hinode through the Door to Sunrise, who was named Sulhadahne. Actually, she has my name, but we aren't much alike. I'll give you a secret tip! Her real name is Victoria; mine isn't. Though I've always liked that name. TWENTY COOKIES TO WHO CAN GUESS MY REAL NAME!

It begins with an a, ends with an a, and is NOT Anna. Okay, any guesses?

If you guessed Aqueiscotala, you are dead wrong and win no cookies, but instead, fall off a cliff.

If you guessed Amanda, DING DING DING!

Okay, now I'm bored again.

Xemnas: Then stop RANTING!

Meanie.

(Before I begin, I must apologize. My dummy dumb head made a mistake; in the first chapter, I said that the events in KHA happened about two months before KHOMV. BUT I said that they had eight months left in their year vacation. Last time I checked, there were twelve, not ten, months in a year. MORON! Anyway, the group has TEN months left, not eight. Thank you!)

013: The Key of Destiny: Roxas

Orpheus treaded lightly around the gummi hangar, as silent as a ninja and sauntering like a cat. With alert eyes he scanned the crowd for his first target.

A gummi ship had landed in the hangar, and the Organization was piling out. Across the way, a doorway slammed open, and Sora, Kairi, and some others ran in eagerly. Orpheus smiled lightly at the group, but then remembered his objective.

With a smirk, Orpheus activated the ability.

(Sorry if this displeases you, Moonshine's Guide, but it has to do with the plot and won't be there forever! SORRY!)

By squinting his eyes, he activated it; if you could only look into his eyes when this happened, it would look like his eyes were organic, but built mechanically, with gears shifting just below the surface. Yellow poured out of his pupil and his eyes began analizing everything around him.

And there he was number 13, the first target. As soon as the boy stepped off the plane, Sora toppled him, both boys laughing and grinning. Orpheus's eyes looked him over, taking in every physical detail from the muscles on his body to the way his expression changed.

Pushing a button on his waist that was connected to a wire, which led to his ear, Orpheus listened in on Roxas' conversation.

"So, when are you all leaving?" Roxas questioned. Sora laughed.

"What, you just got here and you ready for us to leave?" Roxas chuckled, shaking his head.

"No, I just, well… yeah, that was pretty rude." The two cracked up.

"No, it's okay. We're leaving tomorrow morning. What about you all? How are you spending your vacation?"

"Well…" Roxas rubbed his chin. The boys had to move when Xigbar complained that they were in the middle of the pathway, and pushed them off. After a little playful argument with the man, Roxas continued.

"Xemnas and the numbers up to six are going to stay in Castle Hallow Bastion. Something about some sort of experiment. They already got permission from Leon, so I guess its okay."

"Wonder what experiment it is?" Sora asked curiously.

"Something Vexen's been obsessed with. This reminds me, Ariel's staying with them, too. I decided to stay in Twilight Town." Sora smiled knowingly.

"Now that the Town knows about the world borders, a lot folks have been goin there." Goofy told them as he passed by, carrying luggage.

"I guess we should help." Sora smiled. The two boys continued their conversation while unloading the ship.

"Man, what're in these boxes? Solid steel?" Sora groaned as he walked down the walkway with the box dangling below him, his grip loosening as he grimaced. He ended up dropping it on Roxas' foot, who commenced to jump up and down holding onto said foot.

"Yes, it's solid steel!" Vexen smacked Sora's head. "It's scientific equipment! DON'T drop it!" Roxas glared at Sora, who laughed sheepishly. Roxas followed Vexen's lead and smacked his head.

"Ow!" Sora complained.

Yuffie walked by, and when she did, she smacked Sora's head twice as hard as either man had. The boy flew through the air and crashed into the side of the ship. There was now a huge dent in the ship.

"THAT'S WHAT YOU GET!" Yuffie cried, huffing and stomping out of the room. Orpheus looked flabbergasted.

"Okay…" Vexen and Roxas muttered at once. Roxas set his box down and ran over to Sora, who was reeling.

"Sora?" Roxas asked. The boy was face down on the floor. All of a sudden, he leapt up.

"Your mother was a hamster, and your father smelt of eldiberries!" Sora cried, quoting Monty Python, which the authoress does not own.

Donald, while carrying a box with a spell, heard Sora, and zapped him. After blinking a little, Sora went back to normal.

"What was that?" He asked, referring to Yuffie. Orpheus nodded as if agreeing with Sora. That was what he wanted to know!

"I don't know." Leon walked up to the two. Sora jumped, since Leon had sneaked up behind him. "Yuffie's been acting weird lately."

Sora looked to Roxas. Roxas shrugged.

"So, um, where were we?" Sora joked. Roxas chuckled.

"We were talking about the vacation."

"Oh yeah!" Sora chirped.

"Well, anyway, I'm going to Twilight Town, and numbers seven through twelve are going to stay at the Never Was Castle. Marluxia says he's gonna go check on Castle Oblivion at some point."

"Castle Oblivion?" Sora asked. "What's that?"

Roxas looked to Sora in awe, a soft, knowing smile on his face. "Nothing, Sora." He shook his head lightly. "It's nothing."

SWITCHING SCENES

(Authoress was told it was hard to tell when scenes transitioned, so I'm working on that.)

Orpheus slinked out of the castle, headed down to the city without anyone seeing him. He had the information he needed – for now. With a smirk on his face, Orpheus began taking off his extra clothing and gear.

"Time to prepare for my date." He chuckled.

"Kairi!" Namine cried happily, waving down the street. The red head perked up, looking over.

"You made it!" She gasped. "So, are you still planning…?"

"Yes." Namine nodded. "Besides, you'll need some proof of your story once you tell the truth to your parents." Kairi groaned and collapsed onto a bench.

"Don't remind me. As much as I miss my parents and home, the last time we when back was a catastrophe. After defeating Xemnas, we went back, and Mickey, Donald, and Goofy were with us. My mother passed out before we could say anything. We had to leave – everything went nuts!"

"It'll be easier this time." Namine told her. Hopefully She thought with a sigh.

"I sure hope so." Kairi muttered, leaning on her knees.

Demyx heaved the last of the luggage onto the cart, and looked over to Xigbar.

"Ready!" Xigbar grinned and turned on the ATV, a rather large ATV that was drowning in their luggage and scientific equipment, and shoved the stick forward. Demyx howled as the cart bounced into the Maw, careening around rocks and rushing across to the castle. Leon shook his head as he watched them go.

"This will be interesting, won't it?" Aerith approached him from behind.

"What? The fact Sephiroth is now next door neighbors to one of the only men in the universe who defeated him, or the fact Xigbar and the lower numbers are probably gonna give Sephiroth a terrible time in revenge for 'killing' Xemnas?"

Aerith chuckled. "Both." Leon sighed.

"Even if it is across the maw, I wonder if we'll survive it?" He chuckled. Aerith nodded.

"We will. If he has to, Cloud will stop them. Though I suspect Xemnas will take care of it."

"Don't forget Ariel." Leon joked. "She's rather feisty." Aerith smiled.

"Do you think there's a way… Xemnas will be Xemnas again? With his own body?" Leon sighed at the somber topic.

"There might be a way… I suspect that's why the group moved to Castle Bastion. Perhaps they are trying to find a way. Something like that."

"I think the way is in his heart." Aerith smiled. "And if he looks hard enough… he'll find it. I know."

Leon smirked. "Maybe he will."

"Zexion what are you doing?" Axel asked, looking into the man's room.

"Dressing, what does it look like?" Axel's eyes bulged.

"In something other than the cloak? What for?" Zexion smirked.

"Am I not allowed? Leave me, eight." Zexion commanded. Axel rolled his eyes, leaving the room with a huff.

Zexion gulped, heat rushing to his face. He'd kept his cool around Axel, but now… well, he'd have to coach himself through it. And keep it a secret. So far, Rikku and Paine hadn't told anyone they'd heard Zexion calling a man. Other than them, only Xemnas knew his secret. Long ago, Izeno had gone to Xehanort looking for comfort. He'd found it, in an odd way.

With one last sigh, Zexion adjusted the collar on his suit and headed for the door.

It was a mess. The room was in a really old, run down house, with the roof gone and the walls deteriorating so that it looked more like it was a part of nature than a house. Every step she took creaked on the molded wooden floor. Vines covered that floor, and so did broken glass, and even a little blood here and there.

Old pictures hung on the wall and a worn, ragged, threadbare carpet was by a fireplace that hadn't had a fire in ages. The chimney was half destroyed. Walking past it, her eyes looked to the pictures; they were all hand drawn, colored brightly and a little rough around the edges.

Continuing, there were puddles of water here and there beneath the trees, and a bird nest sat in a window pane, the glass gone.

At the end of the hallway, turning into the large room that must have once been a living room, on a wall that was mostly covered in stains and worn, was a doorway. It was out of place in this haven of nature; a sort of sanctuary amongst the trees. The doorway was elegant, pure white without stains, and had stained glass on it.

Around the corner of the hallway, over by that doorway, came voices.

"Man, my mom was pissed about me skipping school… she's probably gonna be pissed again when she finds out I did it today." The female laughed.

"What the hell do you do yesterday anyway?" Another deeper, rougher female voice inquired.

"Went through the door again. I was bored! And besides, I had to check up on my buddies."

"I thought you could talk to them here."

"I can speak to Lexy with a mind connection I gave him, but I have other friends on the outside, you know."

Coming around the corner, the third person smiled.

"Good morning." She chimed.

"It's good evening on the outside. The time is opposite. So, good evening." The woman rolled her eyes.

"Seriously, Victoria, at least try to make some sense." The third girl sat cross legged on the floor next to the girl Victoria and the other girl. They were just ahead of the doorway.

"Be nice, Tsuki. You don't always make sense either." The other girl taunted. Tsuki glared playfully and stuck out her tongue.

Tsuki had dark black hair here, and her tattoo was gone, but her eyes had the echo of the tattoo in them; like it was a shadow behind her pupils.

The girl she was talking to had platinum blonde hair to her waist, no tattoo, but did have the same sort of echo in her eye.

Victoria had brown hair and brown eyes, but her eyes held mischief, not an echo.

"Hinode, Tsuki, no arguing please." Vicky joked. "But, really, you should see the outside!"

"We've seen the outside." Both girls moaned at once.

"Not really. You never saw it, you just passed it by. Running and fighting and all that." Hinode looked to Tsuki and shrugged.

"I guess she's right." Hinode mumbled with a yawn.

"How late did you stay up last night?" Tsuki asked.

"Not as late as I did." Vicky said. "I was drawing again." She pulled a paper out of her backpack.

"Another one from a dream?" Hinode asked, peering at the paper.

"Yup. I saw him, too, outside. My dreams are about many different people, but I dreamt about him two nights ago. He's cool looking." Tsuki smiled.

The picture was of a man in black, with one arm holding a weapon slung over his shoulder, his cocky grin looking to the sky, with beautiful green eyes and spiky red hair.

"Axel." Tsuki whispered. Vicky looked her over.

"I knew it! he really is from the outside!" She sighed. Tsuki laughed.

"Who was the first person you dreamt about from the 'outside'?" Hinode asked with sarcasm. Vicky smirked with confidence and happiness. She put the Axel drawing on the ground and pulled out a different one.

The drawing was of two boys, one standing before a mirror, one standing in it.

Sora and Roxas.
