SORRY FOR THE LATE POSTING, SUPER LATE ACTUALLY! I HAD EXAMS AND TESTS, I'VE BEEN SO LAZY, I'M SO SORRY, NEXT CHAPTER I WILL MAKE IT UP TO YOU GUYS!

What's happening? Why is that everything that I hear sounds muffled?

"Cloud, I think Ven's sick, if he stays trapped indoors any longer I think he'll lose it." Zack added.

"You may be right, he hasn't gone to school because he's been too afraid to, ever since the nightmares started.. I don't know what's wrong with him, but I'll try to do everything I can to make sure it won't happen." Cloud replied softly.

"Can I sleep in Ven's room tonight? I mean because, he is my younger twin I should take full responsibility! It's the least I can do; he hasn't been feeling all to well. So maybe if I'm here, he'll be alright."

Everyone stared at Roxas, what could sleeping in the same room do? It's not like the nightmares will stop altogether, or will they?

"No. I don't want that. Roxas, just because I may not be feeling that well doesn't mean I'm full-on retarded!" Ven spat angrily.

"Ven! Don't say that!" Yelled Cloud.

"I don't care! I don't need you! I don't need this! Stop treating me like a little child of course nightmares are nightmares! I can't control it, if I could I would stop it, but I can't! You treat me as if I'm incapable of everything I hate it so much! Maybe just let me do my own thing for once! Just because I'm the youngest doesn't mean that I'm the weakest!" Ven yelled back.

Cloud stared at his feet, he knew what Ven was saying was true. Zack noticed that Cloud was feeling upset and wrapped his arms around his boyfriend.

Roxas tried to comfort Ven and give him a hug, but his twin only rejected Roxas.

Ven had enough of this, so he went upstairs into his room, locked the door, flopped onto his bed and started to scream into his pillow.

"FUCK YOU VANITAS, FUCK YOU!" He screamed over and over again.

He screamed until no words came out, until the tears stopped, and until he grew numb.

Who was Vanitas, what is Vanitas, what does Vanitas want with Ventus?

Lying on his bed staring up at the ceiling, thoughts popped up into his head. It was a school day tomorrow; he'd finally get to talk to Terra and Aqua. His two best friends, he couldn't wait to get out of this house, this hellhole.

That made him quite happy, thinking that he'll leave this horrid place and get to be somewhere where he is loved and wanted. Where no one will abuse him and where no one can harm him or else they'd have to go through Terra! He couldn't wait to see all his old friends like Axel, Sora, Xion, Kairi and his crush.. Namine!

For some strange reason Ven's butt seemed to hurt, Ven's always been sensitive so he must be laying on something. Ven lifted his butt and felt around underneath it to find something that might have caused that pain.. nothing was there.

It was strange, also now that you mention it Ven's body felt a bit sore and groggy. What happened in the bathroom couldn't have been real, Vanitas isn't real.. isn't he?

Why can't I tell the difference between real life or a dream?

The room grew darker as the sun set lower. Ven quickly ran to the light switch and flicked it on.

Ahh. Much better, now Ven won't be scared. He can see everything in his room now.. he can even see those two amber orbs in the corner.

Wait… WHAT?

I never noticed that before, they're just staring at me, not blinking at all. All I can see is lips, curving into a sinister looking smirk. One word floats around in my head.. and that word reads..

"Vanitas.." Ven whispered.

"N'aawh that is so cute you remembered me, did you like what I did before? I liked it, I thought I was just too damn good for you." Vanitas said winking at Ven.

"No, I hated it! You left me to die Vanitas! You left me in the bathtub! You were trying to drown me!" Ven yelled throwing a pillow at Vanitas.

"N'aawh didn't know you couldn't swim, I would've saved you, but I have other things to do.. and Ven that pillow hurt me so much.. It was unbelievable.." The demon whispered sarcastically.

"Leave. Me. The. Fuck. Alone!" Ven yelled

"Oooo.. scary stuff right there." Vanitas smirked.

Ven had enough, he was at his limit.. He stood his ground and was about to knock the shit out of Vanitas before he fell to the ground.

What? How? It can't be!

Vanitas appeared from behind Ventus and knocked him down.

"Pathetic, really you are. Trying to go up against me, think twice before trying to start shit when you can't even handle it!" Vanitas yelled putting his foot on Ven's chest.

"If I'm pathetic, and worthless why don't you just kill me now!"

"That wouldn't be fun at all." Vanitas replied.

What? How is this fun, how is this fun at all?

"Hmm, I should let you get your sleep.. I don't like worn out toys… they're not much fun.. mmmm… as much as I hate saying goodbye to such a little cutie, I have to… well good night love." Vanitas smirked before vanishing.

Ven tried to stand up struggling to breathe, Vanitas after all did put a lot of pressure against his chest.

As soon as Ven stood up, he collapsed.

Next thing you know Ven woke up, he could hear muffled voices talking. His head was ringing.

Wh- What happened to me? Wh-Why am I here? What is this?

Looking down at him was Roxas, his twins face was puffed up and red, it looked like he had been crying, but why? Whoever hurt Roxy was going to pay! That thought bounced in his head for a while.

Ven opened his mouth and said,

"What happened? Why am I here? Where am I? Roxy please.. please tell me." His voice barely audible the only words Roxas could make out were

"Why.. Please.. Roxy.. Please.." Roxas started to cry all over again.

Ven tried to reach out for his brothers, but it felt like he was paralysed he couldn't move, he couldn't comfort his brother, his amazing, loving brother.

Cloud held Roxas close, he tried his best to comfort his baby brother, but nothing seemed to work, Roxas cared for Ven, a lot. Roxas didn't like seeing the way Ven was, scared, frightened and sick.

Cloud knelt beside Ven's bed and whispered in his ear,

"If you want to know what happened, we found you on the floor in your room, unconscious, you weren't breathing and your skin was a scary grey colour, so we took you to the hospital. What's happening Ven? Why are you so sick and tired all of a sudden, if something's bothering you, you can just tell me. Please.." Cloud's voice sounded as if he was going to cry.

Ven's head started to pound, his chest felt like it was getting tighter, he was going to pass out, but the only word that came out of his lips were.

"Vanitas."
