Secret passage
He could hear crying.
He could feel pain.
He could sense the overwhelming presence of a voice in his mind; constantly calling out to him with a sweet voice, but he could never grasp it. No matter how hard he tried to reach the voice it always seemed just far enough away to elude him.
Who was calling out to him?
He suddenly felt empty. The consistent black haze that surrounded him making him feel an emotion he hadn't felt in quite a long time, loneliness. Why did the darkness seem so lonely?
Maybe this was a really bad dream and when he woke up everything would be fine. He wouldn't have the feeling of desperation he had right then; he'd have someone waiting for him with a smiling face. A bright smile framed with blonde...
Who was he trying to remember?
"Roxas... please..."
He could hear the voice but he couldn't reach it; he couldn't move. He wanted to turn around towards the source of the voice but his body wouldn't budge. He felt locked in place as if he was held down by millions of chains, his body fighting to shout out back...
...but he couldn't. He couldn't make a sound. All he could hear was the constant calling out for him by that same sweet voice.
Was it from the face he was trying to remember?
He could see details. He'd see a glimpse of blonde, a flash of blue, a memory of a kiss that disappeared as quickly as he had remembered it. He could remember her giggles and the way she'd gently lift her hand to cover her mouth when she was trying to hide her laughter. He could feel the warmth in his palms as she'd intertwine her fingers with his and lean her head onto his shoulder.
Who was she?
"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, Roxas."
He wanted to shout out to her and tell her not to be sorry because somewhere he felt that she shouldn't be sorry at all. He wanted to comfort the desperate sounding voice but he couldn't. He couldn't be the one to comfort her.
Why couldn't he comfort her?
"Is this a dream?" he whispered, the blackness slowly disappearing and turning into a starry sky. He was standing on a grassy field that stretched as far as the eye could see, but no matter what direction he turned he was alone.
There was no girl in the field with him. No owner to the voice.
"Hello?" he called, cupping his hands around his mouth to try and let his voice carry. "Is anyone else here?"
Her whispers sounded like the wind.
"Hello?" He tried again, his eyes straining to see if there was someone around him.
The darkness felt so lonely.
"Roxas..."
"I'm here!" he yelled, falling onto his knees as he realized the voice couldn't hear him calls. "I'm here... why can't you hear me?"
It felt like eternity he spent in that lonely field.
Why couldn't she hear his calls?
Why couldn't he see her face?
He heard a giggle and looked up, seeing the back of a girl facing away from him. She wore a thin white dress that was cut just above her knees, her blonde hair falling down below her shoulders. He stood up, trying to approach her to see her face but she stepped away from him.
"Hello?"
"Roxas..."
It was her.
He started walking towards her, but as soon as he had made his first step she started running.
"Wait!" he shouted, quickly chasing after her. "Don't leave me!"
He hadn't realized that she glowed so brightly to him. She was the only light in that lonely dream. She couldn't leave him. Not when he had just found her.
"Roxas..."
He could hear her crying.
Why did he want to hold her so badly?
"Wait!" He caught up to her, his reaching around and grabbing hers...
His eyes opened with a jolt at the feel of warmth against his hand. He wasn't in a dream; he was in a very white room with very bright lights.
"Roxas..."
He turned his head to the side, seeing a face that immediately broke his heart.
"N... Naminé?"
She broke out crying, her eyes already red and swollen from crying beforehand.
She looked like a mess.
"You're back Roxas... you're back... I thought... I thought..."
"Sh," he whispered, barely mustering the strength to wrap an arm around her when she cried into his chest. "Stop crying. You saved me. You brought me back, Naminé. You brought me back."
