Chapter 23. Where's Namine? Part One
The sun peeked through the blinds and shined in Namine's eyes as she sat down at the breakfast table sorting through the mail, she shielded her eyes with her hand from the sun as she drunk some orange juice.
For once it was quiet in the house, when Roxas, and Hayner were together, it was always noisy, so Namine savored the quiet while it lasted.
She could hear faint footsteps, great, quiet time was over. It was Hayner, he came down with his hands in his messy blonde hair.
"Hey Namine" Hayner said a little uneasily, ever since he came home from work last night he seemed a little uneasy.
Hayner walked over and sat down next to Namine. "You're up early" Hayner said with a small smile.
"Well I had a craving for some juice." Namine said looking down at her cup. "Your up pretty early yourself." Namine said looking at Hayner.
"Oh, well…..I have to get to work early today." Hayner said stiffening up a little. Namine looked at the clock, it was 7:00am. And Hayner doesn't go to work until 5:00pm. To Namine it was a little strange.
But she nodded and got up from the table, and tried to shake off the strange feeling she had.
When Namine was up the stairs, Hayner pushed his chair out, and got up from the table. He walked up from the table and over to the coat closet. He pulled out his coat and stepped outside.
He walked down the street a few blocks to the usual spot, there was Olette sitting down on the couch. She stood up when she saw Hayner.
"Hayner, do you know the plan?" Olette asked walking over to him. Hayner gulped and nodded.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"Okay, why did the Romans fight the Punic wars?" Namine asked. She was sitting across from Roxas who was sitting in a chair on the other side of their desk.
"Because of um…."
Namine threw her head back in frustration. They had been studying for hours, and so far Roxas was showing no improvement.
"Okay…let's try another question." Namine said flipping her question cards.
"Namine, can we just forget about the studying, we've been studying for hours." Roxas whined.
"Roxas, to graduate, you have to pass all your final testing, and you have to graduate." Namine said sternly. Roxas sighed.
"Namine, I've done fine in all the other subjects, we've covered, Math, English, Chemistry, and we're working on Social Studies. Are there anymore subjects?"
"Roxas, please try, or at least pretend to study, for me?" Namine asked.
The doorbell rang. Namine sighed. "I'll get it" Roxas said getting up. He would do anything to get out of the room right now. "No, you're going to stay here and study, I'll go get the door." Namine said getting up.
She walked out the room and pushed her blonde bangs out of her eyes. She walked down the stairs, which was getting pretty difficult. She took each step one at a time. The doorbell rang again. Namine grumbled and tried to pick up her pace.
When she got to the door she fixed her hair a little and pulled open the door. She gasped, when the person at the step grabbed her and pulled her out of the house.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
It had been a few minutes and Namine had not come back yet. Roxas was getting a little worried. He knew Namine could talk for a while, but never this long. Roxas sighed and got up.
"Namine!" He called down the steps, no answer. "Namine!" He called again. He got up and walked down the steps. Namine wasn't there. "Namine!" Roxas called one last time. He ran around franticly calling Namine's name.
Namine wasn't in the house.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"What's going on! Why are you doing this!" Namine shouted. Olette sneered at her. "You really don't get it do you Namine" Olette said walking over to Namine. "I hate you, you took Roxas away from me."
"He never even like you to begin with." Namine shouted . "How, long have you been planning this?" Namine asked, she was close to tears. "I've wanted to get rid of you the day I met you. I just never had the help I needed." Olette said grinning.
She looked over at the door and Namine saw a figure step out. Namine gasped.
"Hayner?" Namine asked incredulously. She couldn't believe it. She and Hayner weren't the greatest of friends. But he was Roxas's friend, and had let her move in with him.
"Hayner, you had something to do with this?" Namine asked her voice was shaking. Hayner looked down.
"What are you going to do to me?" Namine whispered.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Part Two
Roxas called all of Namine's friends. None of them knew where she was. Roxas was really scared. Who was the last person at the door? Roxas couldn't take it anymore, he picked up the phone and called the police.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"Okay, we have her description. We have officers out searching the town for her, everything will be okay Roxas." A police officer assured. Roxas sat down. He was shaking, he had never been so scared in his life.
He really wondered where she was. He heard a faint ring, his cell phone was ringing, he walked over to the kitchen and picked it up. It was Hayner, he was thinking about just not picking up. But Hayner might now where Namine was.
He picked up the phone. "Hayner?" Roxas asked.
"Roxas!" Hayner whispered. "Yeah?" Roxas asked.
"Roxas….I know where Namine is."
"Where!?" Roxas asked.
"Olette kidnapped her. She's going to hurt her." Hayner said. Roxas could hear Hayner start to cry.
"Hayner, how do you know." Roxas asked.
"………."
"Hayner! This is serious! How do you know!?" Roxas shouted, the police officers looked at Roxas and walked over to him.
"…..Because, Olette told me,……and I helped her."
Roxas dropped the phone. He gained his sanity, and picked up his cell phone.
"Hayner just tell me where she is." Roxas said, his breathing was heavy. The police officers looked concerned.
"She took Namine to the clock tower, she's going to pushed her off the clock tower." Hayner said. Roxas gasped and hung up the phone.
He got up and ran out of the house and the police officers went after him.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"Olette please, I know we haven't been best friends, but please!………Don't hurt me" Namine pleaded. Olette just grinned, she looked around, "where's Hayner?" she mumbled to herself. "Oh well, I don't need him anymore. I can finish this myself." Olette said.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Roxas walked the around Twilight Town for the seventh time, he still didn't find Namine yet. He was so worried, Olette was going to hurt Namine, she was going to push her off the clock tower.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Hayner came back to Olette's apartment in a few minutes, he wondered where Roxas was… He was probably at the tower by now.
"Hayner are you ready?" Olette asked. Hayner nodded. Olette walked over and grabbed Namine by the arm and dragged her out of the apartment.
The streets of Twilight town were deserted.. Olette forced Namine out of the door and down the streets, until the reached the tower. She dragged her up the steps of the tower ad then brought her over to the edge.
Namine looked down, frightened that that would be the last thing she ever saw. Olette looked around she didn't see Hayner anywhere. She was really getting tired of him at the moment.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Hayner dialed Roxas's cell number. It rang once, it rang twice, Hayner was about to give up when Roxas picked up the phone. "Roxas!" Hayner whispered. "Olette's got Namine they're at the tower right now."
Roxas looked over at the police officers and nodded. And they headed for the clock tower.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"Olette please!" Namine begged for one last time. Olette just laughed. She turned around when she heard footsteps it was Hayner. "Olette, you don't have to do this!" Hayner said trying to reason.
"No Hayner……I'm doing this." Olette seized Namine by the hair and dragged her over to the edge of the clock tower.
"Olette!" Olette turned around to see Roxas there at the top of the tower, the air was tense.
"Roxas, I loved you, but you loved her instead, tell me you love me and I'll let her go." Olette whispered.
Roxas hesitated. "I love you." He said looking Olette in the eyes.
"No you don't, lair!" Olette shouted.
"No, Olette I really do."
Olette let go of Namine and walked over to Roxas. "Come on let's go." Roxas said walking over to the exit of the tower.
"What about Namine?" Olette asked suspiciously"
"What about her?" Roxas asked.
He looked over at Hayner who nodded and the three of them left the tower leaving Namine there alone.
They walked down the steps to the outside. The sun was starting to dip below the horizon.
Olette stepped out last. Her eyes widened in shock when she saw a dozen police cars out side of the towers. She looked over at Roxas who had a small grin on his face. A man stepped out of one of the cars.
He walked over to Olette and handcuffed her. And led her over to the cop car. Another came and did the same to Hayner.
"But wait!" Roxas shouted over to the police officer. "He helped us find Olette." "I know, but he was apart of the kidnapping, we have to arrest him too." The officer explained.
Other officers went up to the tower to get Namine. Roxas watched the car that contained Olette and Hayner drive off. He felt bad for Hayner, event though he had gotten Roxas into a lot a trouble, he was his best friend.
"Roxas!" Roxas turned around to see Namine running towards him. She came up and hugged him, he could hear her crying. "Are you okay?" Roxas asked. "You're not hurt are you?"
"No, I'm fine now." Namine whispered.
