Wow… I think I'm addicted to the smiley faces? Haha. Well, here's your next chapter!! Keep the reviews coming!


Demyx sat alone in his room, partially regretting what he had just said to Axel. If he had to be stuck here, he would need someone to talk to, and Axel was the only decent candidate so far. But he blew it, now.

What could he do? Commit suicide? Would that even work? He wasn't human anymore, according to Xemnas and Axel, so could he even die? Demyx turned over in his bed, staring at the soft blue wall, wishing he could die.

Just then, there was another knock on the door. Demyx sat up; preparing to tell Axel he was sorry for what he had said.

But it wasn't Axel who entered; it was some brown haired man he hadn't seen before. He was big, had weird hair (what a surprise) and a frown that looked permanently pasted on his face.

"The name's Lexaeus. I'm here to escort you by force to the meeting. Apparently, Axel was too much of a pussy to use force on you. Now are you going to come willingly?" the man grumbled.

Demyx, as if he had nothing else to lose, rose to his feet, and followed the man out of his safe, blue room.

When he stepped into the hallway, he felt sort of odd, like he was losing a part of himself. Maybe it was the fact he hadn't left his room for days. The burning white walls were really hurting his retinas only after thirty seconds of standing in the hall. Lexaeus led the tall boy down the corridor to a room that was new to him. It was all open and white, with several seats that were placed in a circular fashion in the abyss like room. Lexaeus pointed to the seat where Demyx was supposed to sit. All the other organization members were in there, staring at Demyx as he took his seat. After Lexaeus took his, Xemnas began to speak.

"Well, now that we have all of the members present, we can begin the meeting."

'What could the meeting possibly be about?' Demyx wondered to himself. He looked around the room, noticing some new faces along with the ones he already knew.

There was a guy who looked about his age, with blue hair that covered one side of his face. He was small, but there was something about him that Demyx found intimidating. He had an aura of intelligence, like he had secrets and knowledge up his sleeve. One cobalt eye was locked on Demyx, and a frown was pasted on his face.

There was another man who looked much older, with long grayish blonde hair. He looked like one of those mad scientists that were in the movies. His face looked old and withered, and his eyes looked half crazy. His eyes frantically darted from Xemnas, to another man with pink hair, to the ground.

There was another intimidating man with long black dread locks and sideburns that looked pseudo, in Demyx's opinion. He was similar to Lexaeus in size and had very strange looking eyebrows that were jagged, and reminded Demyx of a pagoda. He seemed lost in thought, just staring at Xemnas, waiting for the meeting to begin.

When Demyx was about to shift his gaze to another member, Xemnas called attention to the meeting.

"So, my friends, I hope you have all noticed the new installation to this organization," he gestured toward the dirty blonde boy. Demyx felt more pairs of eyes land on him. He locked gazes with a creepy man with long blue hair and scars on his face.

"Whoever hasn't introduced themselves to Demyx, please do so now," Xemnas said sweetly. The pink haired man raised his hand.

"My name is Marluxia," he said quickly, then looked to another person for their introduction.

"Zexion," said the one with blue hair covering his eye.

"Xaldin," said the one with dread locks.

"The name is Vexen," mumbled the one with long brownish grey hair.

"You can call me Saix," said the one with longer blue hair and scars.

Demyx didn't know if he should say 'hi' or just say nothing, so he decided to give everyone a nod after their introduction. He noticed that his hands were clamped to the seat he was sitting in, and his nails were leaving little scratch marks in the material.

"Is that everyone? The rest of you already introduced yourselves?" asked Xemnas. There was silence that indicated the answer was yes. The teen looked over at Axel, who seemed to be dozing off. He sat crooked in his chair, looking comfortable and somewhat bored. Demyx couldn't help but smile, despite his melancholy mood.

"Alright, well today's meeting has to do with that boy. The one who has been running throughout the worlds destroying heartless," Xemnas paused and looked thoughtfully at the ceiling. He let out a light sigh.

"We want him. We want Sora."


The meeting went on for about an hour. After everyone was dismissed, Demyx's mind was filled with new information that he didn't quite understand.

'Sora… Who is Sora? And why is he so special? Why do they want him?' Demyx wondered to himself. He looked up and realized he was wandering into a random wall outside the meeting room. He wasn't quite sure what to do now. He almost felt like taking a seat on the ground.

"Hey. You feeling better?" said a voice coming from behind Demyx. He turned to meet a pair of emerald eyes, gazing into his aquamarine ones.

Axel.

"Oh… I dunno… not really." Demyx looked down, scratching the back of his head awkwardly.

"I'm sorry though, for the way I acted. I didn't mean to say those things to you; I'm just so… lost. And confused of what's going on. I feel invaded and in pain from you-know-what and I have no idea…" Demyx's voice trailed off. Axel raised an eyebrow.

"No idea…?"

"No idea who Sora is. I have no idea what this place is and what my purpose is. What do I do, Axel?"

Axel tapped his toe for a moment, seeming deep in thought. A small smirk grew on his face as he grabbed Demyx's arm.

"Come on," commanded the red head. He began pulling Demyx down the corridor.

"Ugh, where are we going?"

"We're gonna get you some ice cream."


Demyx loved the location where Axel brought him. They had arrived via portal, and Demyx was enthralled immediately. The place had a permanent orange glow to it, like the sun was always setting. It was a little town on the water with a train station and a tall clock tower, where the two had their treat.

"What's this place called?" Demyx asked as the red head handed him an ice cream.

"Twilight Town. It's my favorite world out off all the worlds I've visited. It's infested with heartless now and then, like any other world, but it just seems to have peacefulness to it. I always come here after work to just relax and watch the sunset."

Demyx glanced at his friend who seemed to be lost in thought, staring off at the orange, yellows, and reds of the sunset. The blonde absentmindedly took a lick of his ice cream, flinching away as soon as his tongue touched the dessert.

"What is this flavor of ice cream?" Demyx asked, attempting to spit out the flavor.

"Sea salt. It's more of an acquired taste. You'll like it if you really give it a chance," said Axel with a laugh. The boy was reluctant to touch his tongue to the blue ice cream again, but did it anyhow in hopes of not offending Axel. After about a minute of hesitant licks, Demyx started to like the flavor of the odd flavored ice cream.

"This flavor is so weird. It's salty… Then sweet…"

"You bet. It's my favorite kind."

Demyx watched a train roll out of the station. He wondered where it was going.

"So…Axel…I know this is probably a stupid question, but why I am number nine of the organization if there are already twelve members?"

Axel laughed to himself, a smile broadening on his face.

"That's not a stupid question, Demyx. The reason is that we are all pre destined to have a certain number in this organization. Xemnas claims he's partially psychic, which I know is bull crap, but he could tell that all of us were going to join from the day he started the organization," Axel rolled his eyes, seemingly amused.

"He assigned us all a number when pictured us in his head, and when he finally met each of us, he gave us that number, even if it didn't correspond with the order that we joined. I know it sounds confusing. Like for example, Saix, who is number seven, was the first to join Xemnas in this organization."

Demyx nodded, but didn't really understand fully what the red head was talking about.

"Why is it called Organization XIII if there are only twelve members?" The blue eyed boy asked.

"Again, Xemnas thinks he's a psychic. He says he has a feeling about the number thirteen, even though he can't exactly picture the thirteenth member. He's nuts, I tell you. But we have to follow him, because he is a very powerful man. And he brought us all together." Axel cut himself off there, acting as if he had said too much. The two sat in silence for a while, enjoying the everlasting sunset and their dripping popsicles. Demyx's was already half gone, when he realized something.

'My tattoo…'

Demyx pulled up the sleeve of his coat to see if his tattoo that he had gotten not too long ago was still there. He looked down at his soft, white skin, and realized it was as blank as slate. The boy sighed, feeling a bit more defeated. He was beginning to really take in the fact he was no longer a human.

"Axel?"

"Yeah?"

"You said this is your favorite world. So how many other worlds are there?" Demyx asked, catching on to the fact that this was a different 'world' than where Organization XIII's castle was located.

"There are many worlds. I haven't visited all of them, but they all have their own uniqueness to them. It's almost like each world is a story, with its own theme." Axel smiled at his own analogy.

"And… there are heartless in every world?"

"Just about. It's our job to destroy all the heartless we find and gather their hearts."

"Why?"

"So Kingdom Hearts will be complete," Axel said, shifting his emerald eyes to Demyx.

"Kingdom Hearts? What's that?" Demyx felt a bit stupid for asking all these questions.

"That's a story for another day, buddy. But in the end, if Kingdom Hearts is complete, we will have hearts again," Axel rose to his feet, offering a hand to Demyx. Demyx took the hand and got to his feet as well.

"I still don't believe we don't have hearts," Said Demyx, frowning at his friend. Axel shrugged.

"Believe what you want. But either way, our job is our job and we have no way of changing that." Axel stretched and took one more minute to soak in the sun. Demyx looked at Axel's eyes and saw how the sun made the green in them look different. They had more of a hazel tint to them, and were brilliant in contrast with Axel's crazy hair.

"So, I believe your first mission is tomorrow, Demyx," said Axel, taking on a more serious tone.

"What?! I don't even know how to fight yet!" Demyx exclaimed frantically. Axel chuckled and placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Don't worry. You'll be paired up with a member for your first few missions. They'll show you the ropes."

"Can you teach me them?" Demyx asked shyly. Axel smirked.

"If I'm paired up with you. It's up to Saix, really. But we'll see."

Demyx looked down. He didn't want anyone else to teach him. It seemed like all the other members hated him, or wanted to rape him. Axel began walking toward the side of the clock tower.

"Come on, we better get back," he said, gesturing for the taller boy to follow him.

Demyx, dreading the fact they had to leave the place, walked over to Axel.

"We should do this again some time. Hang out, I mean," Demyx blurted, feeling a bit embarrassed afterward. He didn't want to seem clingy. Axel smiled and shrugged his shoulders.

"Sure," he said with a wink, and then opened the dark portal. Demyx felt relieved that the emerald eyed boy didn't think he was too clingy.

As they walked into the dark portal, Demyx looked back, holding on to whatever last glimpses of light he could.
