Sorry about the wait guys, the past few weeks have been hectic with last minute assignments and essays, and I had finals this week up until Thursday, so I needed a day to relax. But don't worry, I wrote when I could, so I have this chapter and chapter 4 written out. And I apologize before-hand for the length, but all of my attention had been on essays concerning capital punishment instead of focusing on a fanfiction storyline.

"That is how nobodies are created. That is why you are so interesting to us. "

"I see…but, what was so special about me? I wasn't unique."

Xai thought hard about it. She couldn't remember much, but she remembered one thing that seemed to be important was her love of being outside. This struck her as an odd thought to keep close. At the moment, however, it seemed like she'd never be allowed out.

Again, the boy was in concentration. "Maybe they knew something you didn't. They probably think you're dead, which may help us out. Our place to begin would be finding out who they were."

"That would be a good place to start." Zexion looked up at her. She was smiling.

"Sar…casm? You must be…feeling…better." His face had gone back to the cool look he held when she first saw him.

"I'm sorry." Without thinking, she had sat up and pulled her knees up close to her.

"But I am, my chest still hurts a little, but I think that drink helped."

Zexion looked down at the empty bottle on the floor next to him. "That's because it was a Potion. It'll wear off soon, though."

"When?" She did know that she didn't want the pain coming back.

"Not quite sure…I may need to get you a few elixirs."

He unzipped the top of his jacket a bit and reached inside a pocket hidden inside. Xai watched as he pulled out a small black notebook and pen. He flipped to a page near the back and wrote, mouthing his memo to himself.

"Do you do that a lot?"

"Do what?" For the first time since she had met him, the nobody looked genuinely confused.

"Talk to yourself when you write things down."

"I…do?" She smiled and laughed at his expression.

"Yeah, you do."

"I didn't realize…" he lost his train of thought as his nosed twitched, picking up the familiar salt-water scent of a rather bothersome nobody.

"What?" Xai questioned, her eyes shifting in the direction that the schemer was looking.

"We have company." Not even a second after he stated this, one of the large doors to the library opened.

"Zexy?" A nasaly voice asked into the large room.

Xai giggled, "Zexy?"

The purple-eyed boy sighed and moved his hand to massage his temple. "Research section, IX."

The blonde mullet haired nobody bounced into the room, weaving around towering book shelves and appeared where Xai and Zexion were seated.

"Zexy, I was in the meeting room and Xemnas told us about-" He caught sight of Xai, "Hi! I'm Demyx!"

She smiled at how easily he was distracted and replied, "Hello Demyx, you seem way too energetic to be a nobody…by what Zexion has told me…"

"That's because I'm awesome!"

Zexion rolled his eyes and Xai laughed. "I'm not really sure what to say to that…"

"I usually just ignore him…" Xai smiled and looked over to Zexion as Demyx ruffled his hair to find a topic of discussion.

Alright, after I take a break, I'll get chapter 4 up! Review!

For the next chapter, I need some clothing ideas, though, so it'd be helpful if someone could find some awesome "clothes" for Xai. I'll give you some peanut butter fudge.
