…I didn't think I was going to continue this considering the lack of reviews, I mean I really don't know how this fic is turning out without any responses. Saix/Kairi pairings are hard to come by so I'm wondering if I did it any justice, if not I'm really sorry! 

Xaldin had taken to visiting Kairi's cell daily, at first Saix didn't care, why shouldn't the other Nobodies pondering over her connection to the Keyblade or the intriguing fact that she seemed so much more different then any other Nobody. It was when Xaldin seemed to watch Kairi with a predator's eye; he knew then that Xaldin merely thought of Kairi in perverse ways.

He felt the need to protect her every time he saw the Whirlwind Lancer prowling the jail and its many rows of cells. He did not know why he felt this, or above all why and how. But he took a stab of pleasure when he catches Kairi's relief, as he appears from the shadows to warn Xaldin away.

Sometimes when Kairi's tired of the silence that passes between them and afraid that he leave out of boredom, she talks to him. It doesn't matter if he listens or if he responds, it's just to keep him entertained. Kairi hated to agree with it, but she felt slightly afraid when he wasn't around, she was afraid of the other members, afraid of the darkness and the shadows.

It was funny how the other organization members seemed to stiffen when Saix appeared, they were weary of him, didn't trust him. And then how she, a frail girl, felt safe when he was there.

Sometimes she talks about Sora, he doesn't respond when she mentions things about him but she knows he's listening intently. Once she told him about the time when Sora and her spent a day at the beach, and how they held hands and watched the sunset against the orange waters. She saw him stiffen for a moment as if in pain, she saw the flash of his eyes looking at her from his place on the chair across the room.

She stopped talking to him then about the days before, she tells him everything else – except things of Sora.

At the mention of Sora's name, Saix remembers the feeling of jealousy. When he hears Kairi's voice, so soft and pure, say Sora's name he thinks that sharp snap of pain is jealousy. When he imagines Kairi whispering his own name, he remembers the feeling of pleasure.

The girl is shaking from her spot across from Xemnas, Saix can feel her trembling against his own grip on her arm, and he can feel her fear. He can't remember her looking so afraid and frail, even her first night here or the night of that storm.

Xemnas is a monster feeding off Kairi's fear; he smiles, more like sneers at her.

"Give her to me." He commands.

Not once in his service to Xemnas had he ever felt reluctant to obey, never has he ever disobeyed a command. He grabs the girl's arm and she looks up at him, her blue eyes searching and pleading, that look makes him feel guilty and disgusted, so disgusted by himself for what he was and will always be.

He swallows a lump that has formed in his throat and then with effort he pulled Kairi behind him, "No."
