Chapter 12:
Shock part 2
The room around them was WAY too messy for Naminé to have left it that way. Even though she left the castle in a hurry, she would've never left it like this. Her bookshelves were all half empty, with the books scattered all around it, and the ones that were still on the shelf were in the completely wrong spot and order. Roxas knew that Naminé always put her books so that they were in alphabetical order company and author. The ones on the shelf looked as if they'd been thrown onto the shelf carelessly, and were in the absolutely wrong order. Naminé's drawings were thrown all across the floor, and the notebook had all of the pages ripped out. Roxas picked it up and looked to the door on the other end of the room and walked over to it, with suspicion in his eyes.
"What is it Roxas?" Riku asked, following the blond.
"Naminé kept her pictures in her bedroom, they shouldn't be out here." Roxas explained, and opened the bedroom door.
This room was even more messy, if that was possible. The bed was leaning against the wall, and her notebooks were allover the floor. The bookshelves in here were full, but everything was unorganized again.
"It's almost like, someone was looking for something." Riku said.
"I think it might have been Ausea. She had to kidnap Naminé for some reason, what if there was something she wanted to figure out." Roxas pondered.
"Should we go check your room and see if anything's off there?" Riku asked.
"Yeah, and maybe Axel's too." Roxas agreed.
"But first... let's go to Xion's room, she was really close to you guys too so, there's probably something there." Riku suggested quietly.
"Ok." Roxas answered.
The two boys walked out of Naminé's room and down the short hallway to the elevator. When it opened, Roxas pushed the button with a XIV on it. They stood in the elevator silently, just listening to the sound of the elevator descending.
"Riku look, if you don't wanna go in her room, you can go on down to mine. I don't want to make this harder than it has to be." Roxas said, looking at the floor.
"Roxas, you don't have to worry, I'll be fine, ok?" Riku replied.
"Ok just, I don't want you to feel like I did." Roxas said.
"Like you did?" Riku asked, before stepping out of the elevator.
"When Kairi came and told us that Naminé was gone. I wasn't sure what'd happened. It was really hard for me to go over to Kairi's house, because, it reminded me of her. And, at the time, there was a definite possibility that Naminé was gone for good, and I almost believed it for a while." Roxas looked to the ground again.
"Well, she's not so, we'll find her, cheer up man, you're bringin' me down." Riku smiled a fake smile, and slapped Roxas on the back to encourage him.
"Right, sorry." Roxas replied, putting on a pretend smile of his own.
They looked at the door infront of them, it had a fancy XIV above the door, just like how Naminé's said her name. Riku pulled the door open, and walked inside.
