Disclaimer: I don't own anything. If I did, Kingdom Hearts would've never been finished due to laziness.

Me: Okay, it's just me this time and I'm gonna skip this part and go to the story. Again, I'm incredibly lazy so if I ever finish this, it'll be a miracle. Also, maybe very, ever so slightly Myde/Ienzo. Mostly friendship but if you look real hard and stand on your head it's there. I didn't even realize it until it was already written.

'If I were Ienzo, where would I be?' thought Lumaria as he passed the library for what seemed to be the 100th time in the past 5 minutes. When he thought it was gonna be along night, he never would have guessed he'd be so right. He wanted to look for his friend, really, he did but he didn't know where to start, he'd absolutely no idea where Myde had run off too, and Lea was getting heavier by the second. (As if he wasn't heavy enough!)

Lumaria sighed and dumped Lea none-to-gently on the ground as he sat on the bench just outside the library doors. He had half hoped it would wake the red-head up but hopes don't work very well these days. He tilted his head up to stare at the stars but even though there were no clouds, the only thing he could see was the glowing full moon. (1) Wait…was it his imagination or was the moon tinted red slightly? (2)

'Now that's something you don't see every day…'

Myde winced as the floor creaked loudly. So much for being quiet, though it didn't look like the frail boy across the room had noticed. Ienzo hadn't moved at from his face in his knees and his body was still shacking from the muffled sobs. Myde slowly made his way across the room, as to not make the floor creek anymore. The blond froze as he was only a foot away from where the other boy sat on the edge of the bed; he saw that it wasn't watery tears dripping onto the sheets of the bed. It was blood.Ienzo, the poor boy, was crying blood. Myde bit his lip, once more regretting that it wasn't Lumaria in this position.

He hesitantly reached out to pat the other on the shoulder. He could feel Ienzo stiffen at the sudden touch but soon relaxed as Myde sat down and continued to rub him on the back, whispering reassuring words to the other, telling them it was okay, that no one thought he was a freak and whatever the demon was they'd all fight it together. Seconds turn into minutes, feeling like years which seem to go on and on like the sands of time. Time goes agonizingly slow so Myde takes the time to think back on the memories he's shared with everyone else.

Laughter like the tinkling of bells. (3)

Crackling noise of fire late at nigh making marshmallows.

Days spent eating the famous Sea-salt ice cream along the trees in the park.

Screaming crowds as they sang to the teenagers around them.

As Myde looks back to these memories he's so fond of, it takes him a moment to realize something slightly startling. He couldn't, not even when he was a small child, remember a time when Ienzo had ever cried before.

Not once.

'Okay, he wasn't at the park, Merlin's, Aerith's, or (defiantly not) the library. Where else could he be?...' Lumaria thought as he walked with Lea down the road. Lea had woken up a while ago and once he had reassured that, again, this wasn't a dream, ("Are you sure I'm not asleep?" "Goddammit Lea! For the billionth time YES!") and that Ienzo really was in danger, ("How could mister I-Never-Get-Caught be in trouble?" "I hate you so much!") for him to concentrate on looking and what the hell was he doing with those doughnuts?("I made a smiley face!" "Fuck you, Lea!") Lea had finally started search when he mentioned that his oh-so-dear Myde was in danger to. ("Well, what the hell are we doing here!? We should be searching! You really shouldn't slack off, Lumaria!" sigh…)

'Wait…if he's not there…Oh, I'm such and IDIOT! He's at his house! Stupid, stupid, stupid!' Lumaria snatched up Lea's arm, ignoring his protests and wants to know where they were going. 'I hope I'm not too late.'

Slowly and gradually, Ienzo's bloody tears began to slow. They had finally stopped when they heard it.

Crash!

Myde gazed at the closed door as Ienzo's head snapped up, blood stains on his cheeks. They shared a glance as Myde gulped.

Bang!

"Please tell me that's Cid." He moaned. Ienzo gave him a look that told him the answer he dreaded. "Ohhhh no!"

"Soul Eaters are attracted to the smell of blood." Ienzo stated, oddly calm at the moment. The other boy pulled Myde off the bed and stared at him. "You didn't close the door when you came in, did you?" He asked slowly. There was a series of loud noises which seemed to be getting closer. The Soul Eater was upstairs.

"Whoooooooo! Whooooooooo! (4) The inhuman howls and scratches were too close to the door for comfort.

Myde gave a sheepish look, just as there was another howl outside the door. "Oops?"

(1) How cliché is that? Really, Iezo ran off, the demons a werewolf, dog thing, and it's a FULL moon.

(2) It's just cliché enough to work.

(3) Okay, now I'm just over using the cliché thing.

(4) I have NO idea how a howl sounds, but it's a demon so it's probably different than normal.

I can't believe I got this chap. done! I actually wanted it longer but I probably wouldn't finish it then. Though, I will make the next chapter MUCH longer than this, I wanted to get is up to make up for being gone. I also have something I need help figuring out. You know the status thing that tells you how many people have looked/read a story or chapter? How can 93 people look at one chapter, but over 230 look at the one after it? Did they skip that chapter or what? When I read that I was like, "What the heck? That makes no sense!" I'm just curious if anyone knows. I'll try to write and update more often.

Bye
