''If you were so tired why the hell are we in front of his house of all places!'' Roxas gritted out from clenched teeth. Sora grinned sheepishly but when he noticed Roxas really didn't want to be there he tried reasoning with him.

''Come on Roxy! Today was really tiring and I need a break. Besides I need company now that Leon isn't in the house anymore.''

''So your saying I'm not company?''

''N-no Roxas! I mean, i-it's just that...''

''So you don't trust me around you alone?'' Sora looked down at the porch and kept silent. Roxas tried to keep himself from feeling disappointed. He knew Sora wouldn't just accept but to run to this place of all places was such a low blow to Roxas.

'Just give him time. That's all he needs is time.' Roxas put on a smile and grabbed Sora's hand tenderly. ''Don't worry Sor-chan, I was only joking. Now lets get prince charming to let us in, it's freezing out here.'' The brunette just stared at the blond and suddenly grabbed his other hand to his.

''You don't have to try so hard...''

X-xx-X

''You don't have to try so hard Roxy.''

''Roxy stop or your going to hurt yourself.'' Sora said as the blond struggled to get back on his feet. The brunette watched as he tried to regain his breath.

Roxas used the wall to regain his posture and looked at Sora. ''Let's just try one more time.'' Sora shook his head and went towards the mini fridge inside the room and took out a bottle of water for the other boy. He tried to give it to him but Roxas just shook his head.

''Seriously Roxas, if you don't stop this your head will split open.'' Sora suggested still offering him the water. Roxas yanked the bottle out of his hand and threw it to the ground. ''Sora we need to be concentrating! I already told you I'm fine, now can we get back to work!''

''Geez calm down, I'm just worried about your health Roxas! You've been doing this for over 10 days! You may be a vampire but your not fucking superman!''

Roxas went up to the brunette and glared at him. '' You don't understand Sora! We need to get stronger or else-!'' Roxas quickly stopped himself. ''Never mind. Anyway we have to get back to work so we can become stronger.''

Sora raised an eyebrow in suspicion and walked closer to Roxas. ''Roxas...What are you so worried about?'' The blond ignored him as he closed his eyes. The boy let out an exasperated sigh and held the blonds hand. '' Roxy whatever it is you can tell me.'' They just stood there inside the tiny dorm room and letting time pass as Roxas tried to find the right words to describe what was troubling his mind.

''S-Sora...I have these..weird visions in my head and I have no idea what they mean.'' He clenched his fist as Sora rubbed his hand in comfort. ''I see you, in a pool of your own blood, just lying there with a huge hole in your chest and I have no idea what to do. What if that actually happens and there's no way for us to prevent it?'' Roxas started to shake as every word left his mouth and Sora just stared on not knowing how to really comfort the boy.

''Roxy...I'm not going anywh-''

''DON'T FUCKING LIE TO ME!'' Roxas yelled as he fell to the floor in tears. The brunette stared in astonishment. Calm, cool, and collected Roxas was losing his head over a little dream that he had? Was he literally nearly in tears and groveling on the floor over a mere vision that may have been conjured up by his imagination? Sora led the blond towards the small bed and laid him down on it and watched the poor boy cry until he feel asleep.

Sora looked at Roxas but the boy refused to meet his gaze. Those were one of his most dark days when Sora was still a vampire. He never meant to yell at the brunette back then but when you constantly envision your lovers death on a nearly everyday basis he didn't want anything to do with him.

Sora grabbed Roxas hand in his and squeezed it. ''Roxy I promise nothing will happen to me this ti-''

''What the hell are you guys doing on my porch at this time of night?'' The two teens turned to see Riku standing there in his sweatpants and no shirt on. He looked at both of them, then to there hands. Sora followed his gaze and quickly yanked his hand out of Roxas's.

''Hello Riku. Leon's out again tonight so do you mind if I stay over?'' The silverette looked from Sora to Roxas and sighed. He moved to the side and allowed Sora to enter. Roxas was about to follow him inside before Riku blocked his path. ''And may I ask why your here?'' Roxas just laughed but when he saw that he was serious he sighed. ''Sora's brother wants me to look after him.''

''Funny. Whenever Sora's brother is out of town he never sends him with a babysitter. So what's your real reason for being here?'' The blond never felt like punching someone so hard in his life until now. Riku just stood there smirking.

''Riku what are you doing?'' Sora asked.

''Just keeping trash out of my house.'' Roxas could feel his fangs forcing themselves out but he kept himself under control. 'No use trying to kill him...He's just a damn prick...Just a lousy human who has a huge ego and speaks big.' Riku looked like he was about to close the door on the blond but Sora quickly came between them.

''Uh...he was going to help me with my English paper..so.'' Riku looked thoroughly annoyed but allowed Roxas in anyway. The blond gave a brief thanks to Sora and sat down in Riku's living room. Sora and Riku entered the living room and an awkward silence filled the air. Sora decided since Roxas and Riku weren't going to talk he might as well get some homework done but the silence seemed to make it worse to concentrate.

''Uhh...So Riku how are your studies?'' Sora asked awkwardly. Riku raised his eyebrow at the question. ''Sora you do remember we have all our classes together right?'' The brunette chuckled nervously and scratched the back of his head. ''I guess your right..'' The two continued to have there small little chat as Roxas examined the house that his enemy lived in.

'I was actually expecting shrunken heads or some sort of cursed book full of the people he wants dead.(1)' The blond continued his idle musings until he felt a slight disturbance in the air. He looked around and saw Riku looking around also. They caught each others eyes but quickly broke the contact.

''Uhhh I gotta go to the bathroom.'' Riku looked at the blond suspiciously but told him the directions and Roxas quickly got up from around the table and went up stairs. A bunch of pictures hung on the wall of Riku's academic achievements but nothing close to a family picture or even photos of himself were there which confused Roxas because he remembered Riku mentioning he had four older brothers but where exactly were they?

As he walked further down the hallway he came to a stop infront of what looked like Riku's bedroom. Roxas mind was telling him not to enter there but something was drawing him to that room. He entered with caution and looked around the spacious room.

A single bed was pushed up against the far corner of the room with a end table against the other side. He had a tall wardrobe across from the bed and a desk against the wall with a notebook laying on it, open. Roxas walked further into the room and walked towards the desk. The notebook seemed to be blank from where he was standing but his curiosity got the better of him and he leaned even closer over the mysterious book but all he saw was a blank page until he looked at the bottom of the page in the corner.

In really small print he saw this written on the book.

The Jenova Chronicles.

With Sora and Riku...~.~

The awkward silence seemed to return to the table as Riku and Sora sat there doing nothing. The brunette tried to distract him by asking him questions about his homework but Riku seemed to be more concerned about other things.

''How long does it take to use the damn bathroom...'' Riku mumbled underneath his breath. Sora looked up from his papers at Riku and then to the staircase worriedly. Knowing Roxas he probably went snopping around the house and the last thing Sora needed was Riku kicking out his best friend.

Riku looked like he was about to leave to check up on the blond so the brunette quickly thought of something to get his mind off it.

''Uhh Riku...Can I have some snacks and tea please?'' The other teen looked like he was about to say no but Sora put on the best puppy dog face he could and Riku sighed before going into the kitchen. Sora sighed in relief and tried to go back to concentrating on his work but he was to worried about Roxas to get a sentence in on his paper.

'Dammit Roxas...Be careful.'

'Jenova...Jenova...Where have I heard that name from?' Roxas stared at the notebook expecting it to give him some sort of answer but the page stayed the same. He reached his hand out to turn the page but an invisible force caused him to snatch his hand back.

''What the hell was that!'' Roxas looked at his hand as a burn mark started to form on his index finger. He stared at the book as words seemed to appear on the pages in thin air.

The Jenova group/ShinRa Company does not recognize your imprint.

''No way...Not THAT ShinRa...Riku can't be...''

''Ahh but he is Roxy. No matter how much you wanna think otherwise.'' Roxas turned to the window in the center of the room and saw a man with long red hair tied in a ponytail with a huge grin on his face.

''Reno...what the hell?''
