The Organization was gone, obliterated in their attempts to regain their hearts via Kingdom Hearts. The question posed now was how to get their hearts back. This was a Herculaneum task, if not an impossible one. At least, not without help. Anaxn viewed the unconscious nobodies, the first ones starting to stir. Luxaji and Kitexa were checking the others. The one to the right of her groaned, pushing himself to his hands and knees, teal hair draping over his shoulder. He stumbled to his feet, clunky combat boots unbalancing him.
"Where the hell am I?"
"I don't know." He whirled around, black cloak wrapping around him and hourglass clasp flashing.
"Who the hell are you?" He asked. He was lithe, with black jeans and a slightly tight black tank top. Following the black theme were his black fingerless gloves, watches adorning the backs. His dark brown eyes shifted from his surroundings, to the other nobodies, and finally to Anaxn.
"What the Hell is going on here?" Anaxn ignored him, diverting her attention instead to another nobody, who had risen to her knees, holding her head.
"Did I get hit on the head with a brick? 'Cause if I did, someone is dying." She growled, getting up and glaring at the world with her violet eye. The lower half of her face was covered by a mask, as was her right eye by a blue band. Short black hair, fiery streaks running through it, was cropped short at ear length. A stiff looking school-type shirt ran down her front, matched only by the straight-legged pants she wore. Her wild side seemed revealed only by the combat boots she wore.
"Who are you people?" She asked, looking from the boy to Anaxn."I don't know who she is, but I'm…" The rest of the conversation was lost to her ears as the last nobody lifted her head, then set it down again in exhaustion. Long brown hair fell messily from her head to her knees as she lifted up in a sitting position, then fell back. Anaxn walked over, offering a hand to the girl, who looked up with dark purple eyes, then got up with her help. White lab coat folding around her feet, her blue shirt was adorned by constellations marked brightly on the dark blue cloth. Nodding silently, Anaxn turned and left her standing there, heading towards the other corridors of the ruined city. A few figures were making their way down the left road, which is what had brought Anaxn's attention away from the girl in the first place.

Kitexa was leading three other nobodies. All three were girls, and one was as tall as her, if not taller, with black hair and pink tips. Another wore a coat eerily similar to the Organization's that was matched by black hair tipped in blue, and the third… Anaxn twitched slightly. The third was wearing a frilly yellow dress, starkly different from her bright blue hair.
"What the hell is that?" The male nobody behind Anaxn whispered, no doubt in response to the dress. Anaxn walked over to Kitexa, who smiled and almost snapped to attention, which almost surprised her.
"And they are?"
"Uh, I haven't asked them yet." Kitexa said, scratching her head. Anaxn shook her head, knowing she hadn't done so either. Noticing the shadows falling on the ground, Anaxn turned to see Luxaji leading another platoon of nobodies. One of them was leaning on her, obviously annoying her for some reason or another. The girl had gold hair and her outfit was every shade of brown imaginable. Two guys followed behind them, each interesting in their own right. The shorter of the two, which wasn't saying much for they were both very tall, was quite tan and had sunglasses covering his eyes. A black trench coat covered his body, but he was walking bare foot. Very strange. The other had spiky orange hair but the most interesting part of him was his right arm, which was entirely made of metal. Releasing the female nobody and letting her stumble, Luxaji stomped over to Anaxn, who seemed to have taken charge of the entire situation, and growled.
"Here they are. Just keep the girl away from me." Anaxn raised an eyelid at the burst of speech, for it seemed like emotion. Passing it off as the recent loss of heart, Anaxn strode to the front of the group. Having reached it, she turned.
"I suppose only a few of you know what has happened to you. You have just lost your heart to the darkness, and have been left as the empty husk. We are called Nobodies, and I don't know how to fix this."

There was a sort of numbed silence as they stared blankly at her, then hushed whispers trickled through their ranks.
"Well what do we do now?" The female in the mask asked gruffly.
"First I believe that we should join together to perhaps find a way to regain our hearts. Until then, we should find a place to live." Anaxn raised her hand, pulling up a large portal of darkness amid gasps of surprise.
"There's a world behind this doorway to darkness and that is where we will live. It has a history with much to do about an organization that came before us." Anaxn paused for a moment, her mind going back to her experience with the Organization.
"Come, let's go." She turned, walking through the darkness. Everyone else hesitated, unsure of what to do. They had really only existed for a few minutes or so. Then Kitexa strode to the front of the group, mirrored by Luxaji on the other side. With the major leaders giving them courage, the bravest of them crossed the portal as well and finally, the entire coalition had walked through the blackness. Anaxn led the dozen of them through the deserted city, stumbling noises, the clattering of stone and a few swears following behind her in the darkness. As she turned the corner, she paused and glanced up, as the ground in front of her was lit up The group behind her also stopped and whispered amazement hung around them. A huge three story castle stood before them, two towers spiraling up on either side of it. Light shone from bright windows with panes with roman numerals, and a bright pyramid made of glass on the roof. An especially large window stood on the second floor, crossed by a set of vines reminiscent of the sign for the Heartless. The arched entrance doors were made of two stones colors, dark blue as the back, and a brighter yellow heart with the two arches.
"Welcome to the Desolate Castle."
