Life's Tough, Get over it

Sora walked up to the front door of his house, he was a bit surprised to find the door unlocked. Twisting the knob he opened it and walked into the opening, only to be re-directed outside by his father. His father was dressed in all black, long sleeves with black armor overlapping. Fabric like a cape hiding half his waist from view. His giant busterblade on his back, wolf pin over his heart.

" Umm...dad ? " Sora asked, confused. His father looked down at him, his eyes a deathly green. Sora's bottom lip quivered, and he was suddenly embraced in a hug.

" I need you to do something for me Sora " Cloud looked down at his youngest.

" Y...yes father? "

" Ride to your uncle's ask for his assistance. I need to go " Cloud released Sora slowly before looking down at him slightly. Sora had grown so much since he was a child, nearly standing just as tall as his father. Before Sora could ask any questions a hand clamped over his mouth to silence him. Turning slightly, he saw his mother, dressed as he had never seen her before. In fact, he wasn't at all aware that his mother even owned combat clothes, but surely it was what she wore now. Gloves sparking with materia, a determined expression on her face. She kissed her son's forhead lightly and drew him back into her arms.

" Be safe Sora, my baby boy " she held him tightly for a few moments before letting go, allowing him to turn and look her in the eyes, confused as he was he knew he wasn't going to get an answer. He heard the roar of an engine and looked behind his mother to see his father starting up his own fenrir. Tife turned and began climbing on to, but a force held her back. Looking up she looked Cloud in the eyes, her expression held disbelief.

" No...Cloud NO! " too late. She was screaming to no one listening. A large angel like wing stretched from Cloud's back, shielding Tifa from getting on. Tifa punched the unseen shield hard. The crack of her knuckles whispered through the air and to Sora's ears.

" CLOUD! " Tifa screamed again as the engine roared louder and he wheeled off and out of sight. Tears rolled down Tifa cheeks as she sagged to the ground upon her knees, not wanting to believe his decision which she had heard so clearly.

Axel punched the gas pedal until it went as deep as it coul, which didn't seem to be fast enough.

" Damn car! Go faster! " he hissed as he took his foot off the pedal and slammed it back down. Demyx grabbed the door handle to keep himself from sliding over the seat, and to make himself feel a bit safer.

" Hey Axel...why not...try that trick that we've been working on? " Demyx suggested quietly. Axel spared a glance in his direction before pondering such a thought. He placed his hand on the dash board before focusing his energy.

" I don't know if this'll work, or if we'll just blow up the car " Axel pointed out.

" Eh, no point in giving up until you've died right? " Demyx answered with a nervous laugh. Suddenly the car jolted forward, scaring them both, making Axel let go.

" No...its failed before and it'll fail now...might as well keep punching the gas pedal "

" Come on...I'll cool it if anything goes wrong...if we don't get to Xemnas's place in time he may just kill Namine " Demyx pointed out. Axel bit his lower lip as Demyx continued.

" You and I both know what its like to lose someone precious...let us not let Roxas experience the feeling ". Axel placed his hand back on the dashboard before once again focusing his energy. Suddenly flames exploded from the back, propelling them forward with great speed at a great danger. Demyx kept all to aware of just how easily one slip of the mind or a touch from another car could do. But it seemed to get their goal completed, they were now cruising well over five hundred miles per hour, and the car was only made to with stand two hundred. It was they're specialized trick, their ghetto nitro. But then again, if they weren't careful, it could blow the engine. Demyx was sure to maintain the thoughts of cooling enough for the engine to survive.

' Just don't kill us Axel, thats all I ask ' Demyx thought to himself silently.

Namine stifled her cries in the corner of the semi dark room as Xemnas paced back and forth. A few of the other Organization members were there, those who remained loyal to him anyway. She chewed on her lower lip and slowly began to slip one hand out from the rope which held her wrists and ankles together, to prevent her from running. She made sure to check on his pacing progess, no need in getting caught. The dark corner made it quite easy to slip from her holdings...if she did it slowly. So much movement would cause suspicion. After several minutes...success. She managed to slip her right hand out and began peeling the rest of the rope away from her small frame. Once all was removed she held very still and kept the rope within sight, disguising it as though it were still around her wrists. That seemed to work as Xemnas glanced her direction, satisfied that she looked terrified.

" She is a very pretty girl sir...Key of Destiny's girlfriend? " Xigbar asked with a perverted smile. Namine looked at him with disgust.

" Don't even think about it. The girl is very special ".

" Now you care about some whelp's safety? Xemnas your losing your touch ".

" Fool...you have no idea what she's capable of...like...if she really wanted...she could re-arrange your memories into making you think your a monkey...right Namine? My little witch ". Namine looked at him with disbelief, how could he know such a thing!

" Its not nice to bend the minds of those around you into doing whatever you want. I have yet to figure out if Roxas truely loves you or not but..."

" HE DOES! "

" Does he know what you truely are? That your life is a sham? That those are not even your real parents? Just people you've influenced to take you in as they're child? You have a truely wonderful gift Namine...that would be why I haven't killed you yet. But, did you plan on telling him? Or put in his mind that he knew all along and still accepts you? I am curious to know " Xemnas leaned against the opposite wall, staring at her with a smug smile and crossed arms.

" I will tell him when I am ready ".

" Or he'll find out when I am ready. Join my Organization, and I call everything off, he gets to come home safely and you walk through that door alive ". Namine opened her mouth then shut it before re-opening and re-closing it. She closed her eyes before calmly opening them, a sweet smile forming on her lips.

" Xemnas...can you see into the future with this...' Kingdom Hearts ' you call it, what ever that code stands for...can you see into the future? Do you know whats going to happen? "

" What are you getting at? " Xemnas asked suspiciously.

" Answer the question ".

" No, I cannot ".

" Good, then you can't see this comming " Namine pushed herself off the wall and extended the rope within her grip before grabbing Xigbar, who just happened to be to close to comfort, and wrapped the rope around his throat.

" Release me, or I end his life " Namine whispered darkly.

Roxas stumbled up the stairs, he had to get away from this insane man. The gun shots had already half deafend him as he tripped and slid down a few steps before re-claiming his footing. He turned the corner fast and hid behind a nightstand placed in the hall, his breathing eradicated. Biting his lower lip until it bled, he forced himself onto his feet before scrambling into an empty room and locking the door. He backed off as it forcefully moved from the pounding of Mr.Sinn .

" This is my house boy...there is not a place you can go that I will not know " he laughed evilly. Roxas backed into the far off wall before sliding down to the ground, tears forming in his eyes. Why didn't he listen to his family? Why didn't he stay far far away from Xemnas? Why didn't he just turn down those answers to begin with! He had always been taught that don't ever agree to do something, unless you know what your doing in return. His teeth chattered, he felt coldness his him hard. Looking down at his leg he saw why, he had lost alot of blood from that gunshot. If he knew that today would be the last of his life, he would've given Namine a longer kiss goodbye, a final farewell to his friends. An apology to his family for all he had done, he would've made the best of his day...No...not like this.

" If I'm going to die...I'll do it in the comfort of my own home " Roxas whispered confidence to himself as he managed to get to his feet again. He had more than a slight limp in his step, but he chose to ignore it. Looking around he started to scrounge about, settling on a lead pipe from a spare support for the small bed that lay on the other side of the room. Grasping it tight, he put his back against the wall and slowly inched towards the door, for it had stopped being abused and now held silent. He slowly unlocked it and began to open it slowly before pushing it wide open. No sooner than he did that did he hear another gunshot and footsteps running from the corner to explode into the room. As soon as Roxas got a clear shot, he swung the pipe down with as much might as he could, landing a clear blow to the head. Unfortunately, Sinn had moved and Roxas ended up cleaving the man's shoulder. Blood splatted across the wooden floor as well as his face as Roxas shoved him off his feet and nearly fell down the stairs in attempt to escape. He nearly made it to the sliding glass door when he heard a loud shot behind him. Roxas paused against his will and looked down. He placed a trembling hand over the glass in front of him, where a small shell hole pierced through the glass, then placed it on his chest. He retracted his hand and looked at it, not wanting to believe that it had been stained with the deadly crimson color. He could taste blood and could feel the darkness calling to him, so inviting so peaceful, so promising...he couldn't help but surrender to it as he slid down the glass, leaving a crimson trail to follow.

The doorbell of the Elder Strife's home rang loudly. Sephiroth looked up from his book that he happend to be reading. Putting the book down he got up and strode towards the door with the grace he had been born with. He opened it and was ambushed into a hug, making him stumble backwards. He looked down to see a crop of chocolate dark hair and crimson eyes soaked with tears. Sephiroth raised an eyebrow, of all people to be...why his sister-in-law?

" Tifa? Tifa dear, you look unwell. Something wrong? " Sephiroth patted the girl's head, causing more tears to spill. Sora walked in behind his mother, a frown on his face as well.

" Uncle...we have a favor to ask of you ". Sephiroth raised an eyebrow, allowing his nephew to continue.

" Sounds a little dark for you little Namine " Xemnas smiled. Namine scowled.

" Don't toy with me " she pulled on the rope, causing Xigbar to gag for air. The other member's hadn't removed their hoods, all three of them left, they knew better than to have Namine reconize their faces and read their memories.

" I don't think so " Xemnas snapped as the other members began to close in around her. They grabbed her arms and forced her to drop the gagging organization member.

" Crazy bitch! " Xigbar cursed as he rubbed his throat tenderly. He picked one of his knives that he shot at people and advanced towards her with it.

" Lets leave a few scars for Roxas to play with, shall we? " he balanced the blade on his finger tips. Suddenly the door flew open and two chakrams flew in, slicing off Xigbar's hand. He screamed and backed off, holding his stump of a wrist closely to his chest. Axel moved to the entrance of the door and caught his weapons as they flew back to him. They then became flammable as he held them close to his face.

" Let her go Xemnas " Axel threatend.

" This is becoming more and more fun isn't it? " Xemnas continued to smile as he got off the wall and began walking towards them. He snapped his fingers and the other organization members started to drag Namine away, until the member on the far left took her completely in they're arms and punched the other two in the face. He moved past Xemnas with quick speed and motioned for Axel and a late entering Demyx to do the same. The four jumped into Axel's car and sped off. The organization member removed their hood and closed their bright eyes.

" RIKU! "

A/N: Relax people...relax...relax... I SAID RELAX! Sheesh. Yes, I know, I know I know, I am an evil bitch. Now that 'that ' is out of the way, time for my note. Never listen to Evanescence Lithium when writing, it puts you in a sad mood. Doesn't it seem like a horror film going on in your head when you read this though? Well, there's the small humor of ' ghetto nitro ' and the seriousness of the rest of the chapter. Now the question becomes...which person would you guys rather live out of those possible to die? Because I gots a really cruel and sad evil ending with the way I'm thinking that I know you'll hate me for, but love it as well. Hell, it might even make you cry.On smaller note, I had to mention Namine's witch powers because in the game, thats all she was ever good at, so time to bring that back. She kicked ass with those powers, and I wanted her to be this giant +gasp+ in the story, to surprise you all, even if you've played the game. Hope I achieved that. Anyway...here's my sneak peak of my next Kingdom Fantasy cross over, its called " Hatred within Blood ".Hatred Within Blood

Sora and Roxas are seperated at birth, which was not meant to be. Axel, 12, find infant Roxas and takes him in, asking the Organization to allow him to keep the baby. Sora is taken to his island. When age sixteen comes for him, he leaves the island and runs into Riku. Quick to turn into friends, Riku invites him over to his house. Sephiroth, still Cloud's hated enemy, but still his older sibling is Riku father ( of course). Sephiroth can easily see the resemblance but says nothing to the boy, nor his son. He goes out to find his younger brother, who had been so easy to lose himself in the worlds.It seemed that Tifa herself had been seperated from Cloud as well, and he had blamed himself for everything. Sephiroth finds him, the two fight, but Cloud loses. ( SHOCKER!). Sephiroth stands over him and says coldly " Your youngest is at my home right now ", or something similar. Anyway, Roxas and Sora bump into eachother at Twilight town. Roxas had been talking to Pence Hayner and Olette, while Sora had been chatting with Kairi and Riku. Roxas stops, and lets the shock wind up on his face. It was like staring into a mirror. Sora starts fighting the Organization, which now Roxas has the honor of taking him down. ( Must mention twin telepathic ablities when little, and how they neglect when older). ( Cloud and Tifa meet up again, and are able to get their son back, who whole heartedly accepts them...but they think Roxas is long gone from the world). Roxas gets pissed and tries to kill Sora, going all out and using every ounce of power. But Cloud steps in the way before Roxas can get the final blow to Sora, apologizing for everything, begging, pleading, for Roxas to come home, and that everything will be alright. Roxas steps back from his father, his eyes cold, even hurt, but says " This is my home. And this is my job " he picks up his keyblades before allowing them to turn into buster blades, and gets ready to strike his own father down. Rating- M for language, gore, and graphic scenes
