Chapter 9: Namine's revenge

Sora woke once again, not to an alarm clock, nor a phone, but to Roxas. Once again he was screaming at Sora to wake up, but this time he wasn't excited about school. He was excited about the weekend. Roxas was experiencing his first weekend off of school. However he had no idea that on weekend, people usually slept in late.

"Sora it's the weekend! Wake up!" Roxas bellowed in his face. Sora pushed him away and hit him in the face with a pillow. Roxas retaliated by rolling him out of his bed and onto the floor. "Riku has already gone." Roxas said a little more calmly. "He left about when I woke up."

Sora got out of bed and walked to the kitchen, he made a quick breakfast while answering Roxas' never-ending questions about weekends. Soon enough Sora could see why Riku left before Roxas could do this to him. As soon as Sora had finished his breakfast he stood up from the table and yelled out to Roxas, "Look! A distraction!" When Roxas looked over his shoulder Sora rushed out the door and got away.

"Damn it!" Roxas cursed to no one. "I always fall for that!" After the blonde boy had finished his own breakfast he left the apartment empty and walked out the front entrance.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

When he saw Roxas coming out of his room Riku wolfed down the last of his breakfast and bolted out the door. He couldn't take Roxas' pestering questions any longer. When Riku was outside the building he relaxed and slowed his pace to that of a normal walk.

Riku wandered aimlessly for a while until about noon, thinking about random things mainly Kairi. Before everyone had forgotten them Riku had had a crush on Kairi, a crush that didn't seem to want to go away. As he thought about his feelings for a certain princess of heart he saw the object of his afflictions sitting in a café, without Tidus for a change.

He decided he better go inside and say hello considering he had nothing better to do, Riku walked into the café, and up to Kairi's table.

"Hey Kairi!" He greeted cheerfully, "Mind if I sit down?"

"Alright." She said a little sadly. "Hey Riku can I tell you something?"

"Sure."

"I'm afraid Tidus and I may break up."

Inwardly Riku's mind cheered, but he forced his body to keep his composure. "That's horrible Kairi, but why are you telling me? I get Selphie would sell an arm for this type of gossip."

Kairi smiled bleakly, "That's one of the reasons I'm not telling her. I don't know why I'm telling you really. I can't explain it but ever since you three showed up I feel like I've known you and Sora for years."

Riku returned her smile with more earnest. Maybe there was hope of their memories returning. "Well you can always tell us anything Kairi. Now let's get us some lunch."

Kairi brightened her smile as they ordered. Riku was a good friend.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Just like Riku Sora ran out the door as soon as Roxas' back was turned, and just like Riku he wandered around for a while, and just like Riku he found someone who he recognized.

"Hey Emiko." Sora greeted her.

"Oh hey Sora." She responded, she was wearing a pink shirt and a pair of jeans.

"What are you doing?"

"Shopping." Emiko replied happily.

"Mind if I come along?" Sora asked, he wasn't one of those guys who hated shopping. "I really don't have any plans for today."

"Sure."

They walked to a mall together and got right down to shopping, or at least Emiko did, as Sora didn't have his wallet. They went to a couple stores with both of them having a good time; Sora enjoyed himself even though he couldn't buy anything.

"I didn't know this was so much fun." Sora told Emiko at one point.

"Not many guys think that." She said back.

Emiko went into a dressing room and while she changed into her original clothes from the ones she was trying on Sora thought for a while. He liked spending time with her. This was kind of like what he used to have with Kairi, before the whole heartless stuff.

'I guess I'm starting to like her.' Sora thought to himself, "But what about Kairi? I can't just abandon her. Well she is with Tidus, but maybe that while jog her memory of everyone. Ahhhh, I don't know anything anymore!'

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

As Sora silently debated in his head Roxas was at a library, that's right a library. If he wanted to live in this world he would have to find something out about it. However he was having a hard time concentrating as his thoughts kept circling back to Yuffie. Maybe he could tell her the truth, about everything. The heartless, Ansem, King Mickey, even him being a Nobody before Sora defeated Xemnas.

Then he dismissed that idea, he couldn't let their secret get out, besides no one would even believe them, they might even be taken to an asylum, placing his book down and giving up on reading when he was distracted. Roxas left the building and went outside. When he reached the street Roxas noticed the person he was obsessing over. It was the first time he had seen Yuffie since the first day of school, now that he thought about it that was the last time he saw Namine too.

Roxas hurried across the street, not bothering to look anywhere but at Yuffie, but as he neared the middle of the street she noticed him and started to hurry away. Roxas almost got to the sidewalk when the he saw a shape at the edge of his vision; he turned to look at the oncoming car and dived out of the way, however even a keyblade-wielder couldn't dodge a car that close, as he was almost clear his leg crunched underneath the car's wheel. He screamed in pain as he felt the bone snap and screamed again as it hit the ground when he continued his dive.

When Roxas stopped moving he lay still as tears sprang to his eyes, he distantly heard the murmurings of a crowd around him and the sound of a car door opening.

Through the blur in his eyes caused by the tears of pain streaming out he saw a figure kneeling next to him. He cleared his face of liquid and saw who it was, Yuffie. She was looking at him with an expression of concern etched onto to face.

"Yuffie? That you?" he asked through the pain in his leg

"Roxas it's going to be alright, you're going to go the hospital, someone has called 9-1-1 and an ambulance is coming." She confirmed his sight.

The next couple of hours happened in a blur to Roxas. He remembered being in an ambulance, an x-ray machine, and laying in a hospital bed, and a nurse injecting something into his wrist that caused him to fall asleep.

When Roxas woke up again he tried to open his eyes but could not. He tried again and succeeded in opening them halfway. He could barely see someone walking out the door, and another person sitting in a chair nearby.

"-en's he going to wake up." Sora's voice said.

"Sora?" Roxas groaned

"Finally!" Sora said exasperatedly (Big Word) "Riku left already and Yuffie just walked out the door. We've been waiting for you to wake up for half an hour."

"I think my leg is broken."

"Well no shit Sherlock. You were run over by a car. Why were you out in the road anyway?" Sora inquired.

"Heh. Was chasing someone." Roxas said evasively, not wanting to explain his foolishness.

"It better have been like Ansem or something. You do know that if you were a second slower you would have died?"

"Yeah, it's a good thing I'm fit right?"

"No it's a good thing I'm fit, you are me you know. Even though you have a heart now." Sora said curtly. "Now who were you chasing "

"Fine, it was Yuffie, I hadn't seen her since, that… incident, with Namine, and I wanted to talk to her." Roxas spoke quietly to Sora, then raised his voice back to normal "So how's it going with Kairi?"

At the mention of Kairi Sora stiffened and murmured something unintelligible. Roxas decided to let it go. They had just started to talk again when Roxas heard the voice that had ended up giving him a broken leg. Namine.

"Oh my god! You're leg! What happened?" Namine stood in the doorway and was starting towards Roxas' bed when his voice stopped her in her tracks.

"Back off Namine!" Roxas pretty much yelled at her, "It's your fault I broke my leg! If you hadn't kissed me, Yuffie and I would be together, I wouldn't have chased across the street for her and that car wouldn't have hit m-"

Namine, who seemed to have ignored the first part of his statement, cut him off.

"What! So it was her fault my boyfriend id lying in a hospital!" She raced out the door before Roxas could respond, but he did anyway.

"I'm not your boyfriend!"

Roxas turned his head towards Sora, "Is there anyway we could kill her and make it look like an accident?"

"Yeah a couple." He replied. "But don't joke about that."

"I wasn't."

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Yuffie was a block away from the hospital when she heard something behind her. She turned around, but no one was there. Yuffie shrugged and turned around, resuming her walk.

"Why should I care about Roxas, he was probably too busy making out with that tramp to think about us." She said to herself.

"You shouldn't care." Yuffie heard a voice say before someone pulled her into an alley. She felt a sharp blow to her head and her vision went woozy.

"Why did you come here when you forgot Yuffie? I bet Leon is worried sick about you." The girl who she had seen with Roxas said, but Yuffie didn't know what she was saying, Leon? Namine giving her a punch to the jaw interrupted her thoughts.

"Stay away from Roxas bitch." Namine snarled, slamming Yuffie against a wall, kneeing her in the stomach and punching her in the eye. Yuffie sank to the ground and received another punch, at this point her nose started bleeding.

"Aww, are you bleeding?" Namine asked with fake concern wiping some blood off Yuffie's face, "Well we're going to have to have some more of that." Picking up a rock Namine advanced on the other girl slowly. Seeing her attacker with a weapon Yuffie's head instantly cleared. Feeling on the ground for a weapon the female ninja found one of her kunai.

Namine grabbed Yuffie's hair with one hand and yanked her head back, raising her rock for a finishing blow. But before she could bring the rock down Yuffie brought her weapon up, slicing along the blonde's forearm and drawing blood. When Namine released her rock Yuffie used her legs to trip up Namine and staggered to her feet. Gripping her kunai firmly in one hand, her nose gushing blood and her eye closed temporarily she looked bad. Before she could finish off Namine however a voice interrupted her.

"What the fuck, what happened Yuffie!" Yuffie turned around and saw Riku and Wakka standing behind her." Riku was running towards her with Wakka trailing behind her.

"She happened." Yuffie said viciously pointing a Namine. "She attacked me." She looked over at Namine, but she was gone. Wakka noticed a shape in the distance and pointed it out to them.

"That's her all right." Riku said.

"We should get you to the hospital Yuffie, you're hurt." Wakka pleaded with her

"Alright" she said taking a step out of the alley, but before she could go another step it was as if she felt her injuries anew and Yuffie collapsed.

"Yuffie!" Riku and Wakka both caught her before she hit the ground and put her on Riku's back he would have to carry her to the hospital, Yuffie had succumbed to her injuries and blacked out.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Roxas was just starting to get to sleep when he heard a clamor outside his door. Sora had already left so Roxas didn't know who could be making that much noise.

'I suppose it could be a patient coming to occupy the empty bed.' He thought to himself.

Then the door burst open and in wheeled a stretcher with someone on it, the person had blood on her face and hair and was definitely female. They were transported from the stretcher onto the empty bed while a nurse explained to Roxas that the patient was to be occupying the bed for the night.

When Roxas finally got a good look at the other patients face his heart skipped a beat. It was Yuffie. Ignoring the harsh twinges of pain in his leg he hopped over to her bed and steadied himself on the side.

"We found her like this in an alley with Namine fleeing the scene." Riku said from the doorway, exactly where Namine had been before, Wakka standing nervously behind him.

"Yuffie can you hear me?" Roxas asked desperately, ignoring Riku the doctors and nurses who had been in the room slowly filed out leaving them alone. "Please wake up!"

Wakka started into the room, but was stopped by Riku, "Better leave them alone Wakka." He said. They left the room, doing just that.

"Yuffie please wake up, I'm sorry for everything Namine has done, just please wake up!"

Roxas waited for what seemed like an eternity listening to Yuffie's shallow breathing before he heard her stir. When she opened her eyes Roxas felt pure joy that she was okay.

"Roxas?" she groaned. "That you?"

He smiled kindly, "Yes it is. Yuffie, I'm sorry."

"For what?" she looked up at him curiously, "You didn't do anything wrong… for today at least."

"For everything, if I had kept my mouth shut Namine wouldn't have attacked you. I told her about me chasing after you across the road. She got jealous and ran off, I'm sorry I caused you this, I really am."

"Who is Namine anyway?"

"Well." Roxas started, lying technically he wasn't lying, "Before I moved here I dated her once, after that she became obsessed with me, it was creepy. I thought I had seen the last of her when we came here, but now she moved here too." Roxas paused again, Yuffie and him seemed to be getting closer, "On the first day of school, when I first saw her again she just threw herself at me, caught me unawares, I don't care for her at all, I've finally figured it out… Yuffie… I love you.

Yuffie didn't say anything for a while so Roxas waited for her to respond, when she didn't Roxas took it as rejection and started to pull away, but Yuffie grabbed him by the collar and pulled his lips to hers, Roxas eyes were wide open as Yuffie kissed him. When she pulled away she whispered to him.

"I can't do all the work myself you know."

This time Roxas pulled her into a passionate kiss, unbeknownst to him Namine was right behind him, her mouth hanging open. When she finally regained the capacity to speak she screeched at Yuffie.

"Get off of him!"

Roxas whirled around to face Namine while positioning himself in front of Yuffie. "Namine." He growled to her, "How many times do I have to say this, I don't like you, you are the cause of everything wrong with my life, go away!"

Once again Namine stared at him with her mouth hanging open, "But Roxas do you want to sacrifice everything we have for this, this tramp?"

"Namine, I'm going to spell this out for you. We never had anything. Okay?" Roxas spoke slowly so she would finally get the message.

Namine's face changed from that of confusion to being contorted with rage, "Oh you'll regret this Roxas, you'll regret this." Then she stormed off through the hospital.

Roxas turned back towards Yuffie, her face bruised and a little bloody still, and he thought to himself "She's ten times better then that physco ever was.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I was going to stop that chapter like ten times yes I was. My original plan was for it to be Roxas doesn't get hit by a car and meets up Yuffie in the alley they met in before, but this is better.
