This chapter is placed in the time period during Ven's hospital time and the time when he goes back home. Sorry for super later update, writers block always seems to strike hard v_v

Let me out! Let me out!

"I'm so sorry Roxy, I'm so..so sorry…" Sora's voice trailed off, it sounded like he was about to cry.

"It's alright, you didn't know." Roxas replied putting an arm around Sora.

They both sat in silence for a very long time, before one of them had the nerve to say something, Ven being hospitalised had traumatised everyone, and especially when Ven had seizure.

"I-Is there anything I could do to make you feel better Roxy?" Sora said, forcing a smile.

"I-I want to talk to you, about something, important." Roxas whispered

"Huh? I'm all ears." Sora replied back.

Please, I'll be a good boy, just let me see daddy, please!

"I'm so scared, I don't know what to do." Roxas started shaking as tears ran down his cheeks.

"Scared of what? Is someone hurting you, or something?" Sora looked at his best friend, who was clearly in a lot of pain.

"Losing Ven… he seems so scared, so fragile, h-he's been having nightmares, and he keeps falling asleep, I keep finding bruises on him but he says he just bumped into something. I don't believe him, I know something's wrong and I'm determined to find out." Roxas whispered keeping his head down.

He looked at Sora, hoping his best friend may know what's wrong with his little brother.

"Sounds familiar." Sora replied grimly.

NO, BROTHER! PLEASE DON'T LEAVE; I'LL DO ANYTHING PLEASE!

Roxas thought he said something bad, because Sora was clearly uninterested and upset, it may have brought some bad memories or something.

"I'm sorry.." Roxas whispered.

"It's alright, just reminded me of something that I should of forgotten, along time ago."

"I-I-I.. I'm so so sorry." Roxas whispered softly, his voice shaky and tears sliding down his cheeks.

"Don't be, it's alright." Sora smiled at his best friend who was clearly hurting the most.

"I just remembered something, about someone that I used to know. Black hair spikey hair similar to mine, and amber eyes, I can never remember his name, I only remember what he looks like." Sora looked forward, he seemed to be distracted by something.

I'm tired of being scared, being weak. What am I?

"What did he tell you?" Roxas was curious, his best friend was acting strange and he didn't like it one bit.

" … GAH! I feel like I know him, I feel like there's something about him, I can't seem to remember.. but why? I.. he seems like.. someone…. I just can't put my finger on it." Sora sighed, he may never remember the boy with the amber eyes.

"I'm sure you'll remember him, he was probably significant to your life at some point." Roxas smiled at his best friend, who was struggling to remember a mysterious boy.

"He told me that he wanted to be free, he wanted to leave this place, start over, that there was nothing left for him here but hatred and pain." Sora whispered gently.

In my dream, the world had suffered a terrible disaster. A black haze shut out the sun, and the darkness was alive with the moans and screams of wounded people. Suddenly, a small light glowed. A candle flickered into life, a symbol of hope for millions. A single tiny candle, shining out in the ugly darkness, I laughed and blew it out.

"I can't, I can't…" Sora began to cry, he felt as if this boy had some connection to him, but he could never figure out why.

Roxas held his best friend close, as they cried together, for Ventus and for this unknown boy.

"WE DON'T NEED YOU, YOU'VE DONE NOTHING BUT HURT US! WHAT DID WE EVER DO WRONG? IF YOU NEVER WANTED US, WHY WERE WE EVEN BROUGHT TO THIS DYING WORLD?" Vanitas screamed, he hated his father he did not care for him or his younger sibling.

His father stood there in utter silence, giving him empty, cold, bitter stares. Soon the room was filled with screams, cries for this to end. A small brown haired child began to cling onto Vanitas, screaming and crying for him to stop.

"You're just an ungrateful little shit!" Vanitas' father had smacked him across the face, sending him across the room. Leaving the small child standing there, unguarded and exposed.

"DON'T YOU DARE LAY A FINGER ON HIM FUCKER!" Vanitas screamed, trying to get up, but his legs keep giving way.

"I'm the adult, you're the child. You listen to me! You're nothing but a weakling; you start shit, and don't know how to handle it when it gets out of control. You're no son of mine. You're a disgrace." His father yelled back, clenching his hand into a fist.

The small child began to cry, his screams getting louder and his tears coming fast and hard. He was so confused; he didn't know what to do.

"SHUT YOUR MOUTH" The father yelled, taking his fist and punching the small child in the face.

Vanitas stood there, watching as his father punched his brother, watching as the small body turned limp, hitting the ground, blood falling from the younger child's face. He saw his little brother being repeatedly kicked and punched by his father.

"H-ho-how… could you.. do this to your own child? What kind of SICK BASTARD ARE YOU!"

Vanitas' eyes were filled with pain and hatred, he began to lunge at his father, pinning him to the ground. Holding him down with his hands, gripping onto his father's wrists as hard as he could, staring down at him with a glint of murder in his eyes.

"I TOLD YOU NOT TO LAY A FUCKING FINGER ON HIM." Vanitas yelled, tears streaming from his eyes.

He raised his fists in the air, clenching them ever so tightly. He soon began to punch his father, fast and hard.

"I'M NOT A WEAKLING, I'M NOT WEAK!" He cried out, his cries getting louder as he punched his father faster and harder.

Vanitas started to choke his father, looking at him with pure hatred as the mans face turned red. Vanitas looked down, tears falling down his cheeks, pure hatred and anger masked his face as he choked his father until his gasps for breath were nothing more then a deathly silence.

Vanitas got up, he looked down at his hands which were covered in blood. He didn't feel guilty for what he did, he felt rather satisfied.

He knelt down next to his little brother, holding him in his arms. Wiping the blood off his face with his jacket.

"Va-V…Vanitas.." The little boy whispered weakly. Touching his brother's face, wiping the tears off his face.

"Big… brother.. is… hurting.." He whispered, watching the tears fall down his older brother's face.

"Not anymore… were safe now.. just me and you.. I promise.. I'll do anything to keep you safe, no one will ever hurt us ever again. I promise Sora."

I'll try and update more, sorry that this chapter doesn't have much in it. I was going to write so much, but in the end it was a struggle to finish.
