Sorry for being late! I couldn't really think of a good ending for this chap and I was stuck at a camp with no internet. Meh.

This chap's a little short, but I promise the next one's gonna be wayyyyy longer! Enjoy!

Disclaimer: I don't own the characters :(

Forgotten: Pieces of the Puzzle (Roxas POV)

"A-and ever since then, we almost always hung out here after missions and ate Sea Salt Ice Cream." Xion finished her story. The look in her saddened eyes proved she was telling the truth. "But... But how-" The bell rang before I could ask my question. "We... We have to go, Roxas. Or else we're going to be late." Xion said quietly before abruptly turning around and walking out of the classroom. "Hey! Xion! Wait for me!" I called as I quickly followed her. She turned just a little and then walked into the classroom. I ran inside just before the late bell rang. I quickly got into my seat so the teacher wouldn't yell at me again and got out a book to read. It is Silent Reading Time. Hey, it might sound like a kid thing, but it's great for when you need to take a rest. As I read, I glanced over at Xion, who sat next to me. She was concentrating on drawing something. I sat straighter in my seat so I could try to see what she was drawing, but her curved arm blocked my vision. The way she drew...looked similar to the way this other girl drew. I can't remember the name, but I remember she had light blonde hair that curled over her shoulder and always wore white dresses. For some reason, my brain persisted in trying to remember her name. Name. I think it starts with an N. Nami. Yeah, that's the first part. Now what's the- 'NAMINE!' A voice in my mind screamed. My eyes went wide as a memory flooded my mind.

Flashback

I tried to budge from my sitting position on the ground, but it felt as if I were chained there with some sort of magic. Though, even if i wasn't chained, I was too tired and beat up to move. My mouth was gagged so I couldn't talk. My eyelids were felt too heavy to open, but my sense of hearing was still intact and as sharp as ever. I heard muffled voices from where I sat:

"Namine! I will not order you again! Erase that brat's memories! Now!" a low, furious voice boomed. Funny. He sounded very familiar. I heard a slap and the girl called Namine cry, "Never! I will never use my power to help the likes of you!" A low growl snarled threateningly at her and a louder, harsher slap echoed through the place. I heard the girl cry out in pain. "Do it! Make it as if that puppet never existed!" the man barked. "No! She existed! I won't let him forget her!" Namine rebelled through what sounded like gritted teeth. Who are they talking about? Me? And... and Xion? No! They are not going to make me forget her! I started struggling against my magical chains with newfound strength. I heard heavy boots stomping toward me and grab me roughly by my hood. As I tried to struggle against my captor's grip, I felt him dragging me towards Namine's and the man's voices. My captor threw me onto a hard, but raised surface. Probably a table. A groan escaped my lips as the harsh impact hit my injuries. I heard Namine gasp, "What did you do to him?" "I only punished him for trying to leave the organization." the man stated coldly. "Now do it!" he ordered and pushed me toward Namine. "N-no," Namine said shakily but firmly, "I'm not going to." The man growled more and snapped his fingers. I heard feet shuffling and someone being restrained by a gag and by someone else. Namine gasped and I slowly opened my eyes to see who the newcomers were. After wincing from the sudden light, my eyes went wide as I saw Namine's twin sister, Kairi, gagged and restrained by a hooded figure. Kairi seemed to be screaming something, but was muffled by her gag. Her clear blue eyes mirrored the urgency in her muffled voice. Namine stood there, frozen from shock and worry. The other man, who was also hooded, only smirked. "You will follow my order unless you want your precious sister to die." he threatened cooly. Kairi violently shook her head and managed to free her mouth from the gag. "Namine! Don't do it! I don't care what happens to me! For Xion's sake, don't do it!" the redhead screamed before her captor punched her hard in the stomach. The other man turned to Kairi's trembling sister. "Your sister is very brave, but we are not afraid to carry out our threat." he said. Namine, close to tears, grabbed my aching head and whispered, "Roxas, Xion. I'm so sorry." I felt a sharp pang in my head and before I completely blacked out, I felt hot tears running down my bruised cheeks.

End flashback

I jerked back into my seat as I came back to the present, panting as if I had just run five miles. The bell that signaled the end of the reading time rang. Tiny beads of sweat ran down my face as the facts of the flashback sunk in. Xion. Something had happened to Xion. And then to me because I tried to help her. Namine was forced to erase my memory so I wouldn't try to help her again. And someone from the organization was behind it all. But what happened to Xion? I mulled this question over and over in my mind, hoping to have another flashback. Nothing came. With a sigh, I took out my notes and started absently copying down the teacher's notes. I'm going to have to get Xion to tell me about that fight.

Finally the bell rang and I saw Xion preparing to go to lunch. I grabbed her hand and she quickly spun around and punched me. For some reason, she had fear in her eyes. I winced in pain. Dang, that girl's got good reflexes. Her face turned a slight shade of red when she saw it was me. "Sorry Roxas! It's just, I thought you were-" "It's fine." I interrupted, though I wanted to know what she was going to say. "Tell me... Tell me about the fight. The one that caused you to leave." I slightly demanded. Her blue orbs widened and she sadly looked down. Clearly, she doesn't like to think about that. After thinking for a moment, she sighed and stared into my eyes. "Alright," she said, "but not here. After you finish your mission today, meet me at the Tower. Axel can come if he wants, but neither of you can say a word about it. Got it?" I couldn't help but think that she acts like one of those spy contacts or whatever. It's kind of cute, actually. I nodded my head and she smiled. "Good. I'll see you later!" she said and left the class, humming to herself. I couldn't help but wonder about what had her so fear-stricken earlier. What had happened to her? Hopefully, she'll tell me...

"So you want me to meet this girl who claims to be our best friend? Did I get all that right?" Axel asked me with doubt in his voice. I nodded vigorously, wanting him to hurry up so we don't miss her. "Yes! Now come on! Let's go!" I started pulling on his coat sleeve. The thing about our organization- we have really awesome black trench coats. Anyway, Axel sighed and said, "Alright, alright. But if she's an enemy, I'm attacking her. Best friend or not." and with that, he walked past me. I stood there in shock. Attack her? What? She's not an enemy! What is he talking about? Shaking my head, I quickly caught up to him and we made our way to the Tower.

"So you came." Xion said with a slight smile when we got to the top of the Tower. I smiled back and sat at the place I always sit. It happened to be next to her. Axel stood by his usual spot on the other side of me and crossed his arms. "You're that girl who attacked me and Dem the other day." he narrowed his eyes at Xion. Surprised, I looked at Xion, not believing that she would ever do that. Her blue eyes fell to the ground in guilt. "I'm sorry about that, Axel. It's just... I didn't want you to..." she fell silent, lost in her own troubling thoughts. "To do what?" Axel and I asked at the same time, Axel's voice a bit softer than before. "To take me to Xemnas. He's evil, that man. The reason you and everyone else forgot me." she answered softly and then looked at our shocked faces. Her eyes shone with pain yet determination. "It's time I told you about our fight."

Hope you liked this chap! The next one might take a while to put up since I'm being sent to yet another internetless camp.

Hopefully I'll get it up in less than two weeks.

Thanks for reading! :D
