Chapter 22: Existence Not My Own
(White Night Finale)
-Day Five-
(Naminé's POV)
Finally. I finally got to see Roxas, and now they're trying to put him away? I don't think so. "No!" I yelled, biting the Inquisitor's hand since he was holding onto me(he got ahold of me again). He let me go and I speared(which is basically tackling) the person nearest to him that was about to dump water all over him. "You're not taking him away from me!" I growled, and once that person was down, my Storm Sword appeared.
I think everyone was in amazement, because no one stopped me from cutting the buckets(the sword's that strong) and pushing aside the people. Roxas managed to grab me and fly up to the ceiling. But everyone was ganging up on the poor redhead once Roxas flew up near the ceiling and was away from the guards. Axel was getting beaten up pretty badly. I heard Roxas sigh, and then he landed and let go of me. "I've got to help Axel...I'm sorry, Naminé."
"It's okay. You need to help your friend." I said, as he got right into the fray. As soon as he started hacking in there, Seifer got out of the battle and came towards me.
"C'mon, Naminé, let's get out of here." He said, making a dark portal appear. I shook my head and stepped away from him.
"I don't want to go!" I said defiantly, stomping my foot to add effect, "I want to stay here with Roxas!"
"Well that's just too bad, isn't it?" He sneered, then whistled. The Inquisitor appeared at Seifer's side in an instant. "Water is their big weakness. Once I take Naminé out of the picture, douse them. Make sure you don't let the redhead out. We'll be back." He said, and then the Inquisitor nodded. I glared at Seifer.
"I told you before, I'm not going anywhere!" I said, and he grabbed my arm and dragged me away. "NO!!!" I screamed, thrashing around violently. "LET GO OF ME YOU–!!!" I felt a needle pierce my arm and the whole world turned black.
-End of Day Five-
Kairi yawned. She had a funeral for poor Sora plushie(everyone in Tsugare attended, and they had an actually ceremony for the toy) and they had buried the toy in a very fasionable shoebox(the best of the best) and laid it in the ground. Forever. "Two weeks..." She said, closing her eyes for a little.
"Oh, Sora...how I miss you..." Kairi sighed, finding she couldn't go to sleep and opening the window and placing her elbows on the windowsill. She rested her head in her hands and looked at the sky. "Starless Night..."
-Day Seven-
(Naminé's POV)
When I woke up, my arm was kind of sore(probably from the needle). I blinked away the sleepiness from my eyes then jolted upwards. What had happened? I remember being pierced by that needle(which had to be a tranquilizer which was why I fell unconscious) and then waking up here.
"Seifer said he was going out." Immediately when I woke up, I was met with the now vampiric-looking Marlene. I frowned, wondering what had happened after I fell. "He seemed pretty worried since you were out all day yesterday..."
"Did he mention anyone when he talked to you? Like Roxas?" I asked, and the girl tilted her head to one side. "You know, blonde hair, blue eyes...the same height as Seifer..."
"...I don't think I've ever seen this 'Roxas' person before, but you've told me all about him and he sounds kinda familiar! Could you draw him for me?" She asked sweetly, handing me a piece of paper and some colored pencils that she had with her all along. I think Marlene had waited by my bedside just for me to draw him. But I did so pleasurably. "Um...Mistress Naminé?" She heard me giggle when I started to draw his hair or when I was doing his outfit, or drawing his wings.
I couldn't help it, though! I couldn't help but laugh because drawing him brought back all the happy memories...were there even any? The parade, maybe. Maybe there were more...but...I didn't remember what my real life was like, so how could I retrieve my true memories?
"Finished!" I concluded the picture quite happily by coloring in my drawing. I looked it over, and I almost choked because it looked like a photograph. A bit...2D-ish, but it looked real. I showed Marlene the picture and her eyes widened.
"Uncle...?"
-
(Roxas' POV)
All that water is getting to my head. Seriously. After Seifer took Naminé away(believe me, I FOUGHT) another batch of guards came in with more buckets of water and drowned Axel and I in the water. I was in the same prison(which was all coated with water, lucky me) but now there were more chains around my arms and I had a leash around my neck that was chained to the wall. I felt like a dog. And I hadn't even broken out of my chains last time, Seifer freed me from then, yet they make sure they have pounds of them on me!
"'Ello again, angel." I heard the Inquisitor(who must have come in the room while I was inspecting all of my chains) say, and he seemed awfully bright for a torturer. "Today we're going to have a very special day, my little peach." When he called me 'peach', he pinched my cheek like Ashe would when I was little.
"Let go of me!" I snapped, but I couldn't do anything about it, all chained up like I was. He backed away and placed a hand over his heart and gasped like I had just emotionally wounded him or something.
"I am so hurt by that! And I'm sure she wouldn't like it if you hurt her deep down inside like you did to me." Inquisitor said, and he noticed my face soften. "Don't worry, Angel, I'll take good," He cracked his whip, "care of her for you."
"She's coming?" I asked, then made sure we were talking about the same person, "Naminé's coming to see me?"
"Oh, so that's the little witch's name, now is it?" He asked. I lunged forward, momentarily forgetting that I had chains around me. I got choked by my leash before the binds on my arms held me back.
"She's not a witch! And even if she was, you have no right calling her that!" I yelled after I had gotten my breath back. She had been called that before...I regret it now, but I had called her that before...I had hated her, and the whole royal family before...which is why I joined up with the Organization...I have a lot of things in my past I wish I could erase...
"But she is. I know from Lord Seifer that she has unique abilities that make her unhuman." Inquisitor said, and then crossed his arms and chuckled. "Calling her that makes you angry, huh, Angel?"
"You don't even know her." I glared at him, hoping desperately that looks could kill. I wanted to defend her name, but I couldn't because of these chains. If I was released from the chains, the Inquisitor would be begging for mercy right now.
"And you do?" He asked. I countered this one easily.
"Better than herself." I said matter-of-factly. And it was fact. Besides from the Organization(who was all dead now, and Axel didn't get much into their personal lives) and Queen Yuna, who could only faintly remember Axel and I, no one knew what their lives really were like.
"...You care about her? Not that a doll like you could feel, anyway, but if you co-"
I cut him off with, "Doll? I may be an android, but I wasn't completely manufactured with metals and such. I do have actual flesh and blood in me." I hated it when people called me things like 'doll', 'marionette', and oh god, 'puppet' was the worst. I couldn't stand that. I went as berserk as I could without actually going berserk on that person if they called me that.
"Answer my question, Angel!" He cracked his whip and lashed me across the face. "Do you care about her, or not?" He sounded impatient.
"Why do you want to know?" I countered, the mark on my face from the whip was only what I considered a scratch. I could really take the Inquisitor's 'fun' but sometimes he brought out his friends 'Sharp Pieces of Glass' and his very best friend, 'Gun'.
"Because I feel we're becoming friends, angel. I want to know a little bit about you." He said, laughing and cracking his whip eagerly. I was about to answer him when the door opened. It was none other than Seifer, carrying a kicking and screaming Naminé over his back.
"Naminé?" I asked quietly. The jerk that we all absolutely deplored was looking very annoyed that he had a struggling Princess over his shoulder. It was too bad that she couldn't kick him in the stomach or impair him or make sure he couldn't reproduce...or something along the lines of that. But she couldn't.
"LET GO OF M-...Roxas?" She instantly calmed down when she saw me. Seifer set her down on the ground but before she could run up to me, he grabbed her arm.
"You're not here to see him." He sneered, pulling her back so she couldn't reach me. Did I mention how much I freakin' hate Seifer? "You're here to make sure Roxas spills out all his little secrets about Heaven. Once we know the weaknesses of Paradise, we'll make sure Hell overrules Heaven, and all of the angels will become slaves to the demons and beings of darkness..." I mean seriously, how can you not hate him?
"What?" Naminé asked, her voice seeming to convey disbelief. However, her now meek voice was drowned out by the cheers of the Inquisitor and the guard outside my prison must have heard him as well, as he was cheering, too.
"You heard me. We have you here because you're his weak point. I bet Roxas would be able to take the torture all of Hell could dish out, but he'll crack if the Inquisitor turns to you, instead." Seifer said, then nodding to the torturer after he let go of her. "They're all yours." He walked over to the door and leaned against it, watching intently. Before the Inquisitor could grab her, she ran straight to me.
"Are you okay?" I asked her, and she nodded when she hugged me. Seifer was stupid enough to still have that spell negated! What an idiot.
"I'm fine, but what about you? Why did they chain you up?..." She asked, tightening her grip on me(I didn't think it could have gotten any tighter) when the Inquisitor came a little closer.
"You can talk all you want later." Inquisitor said, cracking his whip again(he liked doing that!) and Naminé jumped and shook. She was scared, I could tell. But there was nothing I could do to comfort her besides form tell her that everything would be okay. "Now it's time for our little session. I'm going to ask you nicely, angel, what is the source of the angels' power?"
"..." I thought on that for a moment. I had to lie. It was the only way out. Make a believable lie. "For Earth-bound angels, it's the sun. At night, we are prone to anything and everything supernatural." The Inquisitor gritted his teeth.
"But that doesn't tell me who Hell can take over Heaven! Tell me that, Angel!" He yelled, the whip making a red mark across Naminé's face. I didn't even see the whip move, that's how fast the Inquisitor was. But I noticed it when she whimpered. I clenched my fist. If I wasn't chained...
"Well..." I started, wondering how to make this up. The blonde Princess looked up at me, and I guess she could tell I was trying to lie. If you know anything about me, it's that I suck at lying. People with half a brain could tell I was lying. The Inquisitor didn't seem like he believed it, either. Naminé's Storm Sword appeared in her hands. Before I could ask her what she was doing, she let go of me.
Before the Inquisitor could grab her, she held the sword over her head and along with the impact of it on his skull, erupted a sickening crack. I thought for a second there, that she had actually hit my head. Seifer cringed and so did I. Who knew she had it in her? Once the Inquisitor was down, I closed my eyes and sighed.(I just couldn't face Naminé and tell her anything because of Seifer AND the chains) Some moments went by, and then I felt something splatter on my cheek. That's when I opened my eyes. The Inquisitor was down still(he was getting up slowly), and Seifer looked like he was angry and almost horrified, but was rooted in his spot.
Because of Naminé...I heard a clinking noise and looked at her. The liquid that had splattered on my cheek was blood. With her Storm Sword, she was trying to break the chains. But her other hand, which was holding the chain out, was bloodied(so she must've missed) and she had to have switched hands a couple of times because the other one was coated with crimson as well.
"What are you doing?" I asked, and she just shook her head. Then I noticed the tears streaming down her face. "...What's wrong, Naminé? Don't cry, please..."
"I've...got..." She said, continuing to hammer away on the chains with the sword, "...to...get...you...free, Roxas!" Seifer walked over and grasped her shoulders, pushing her away from me.
"I can't watch this anymore. It's absolutely sickening to watch you hurt yourself trying to get him free. Inquisitor, this isn't working. I'm going to have come back when she's not going to fight." Seifer said, looking at the interrogator who probably didn't even know where he was.
"No, Seifer! Let me go!" She screamed, but Seifer just kept his grip on her.
"Naminé!" I shouted, and the chains she had been working on snapped when I pulled. Once one of my arms was free, I summoned Oblivion and sliced the chains(and the leash) that had restrained me. I looked at Seifer. He could tell there was murder in my eyes, because he cursed underneath his breath. I took a step forward, and he took a step back, with Naminé still in his grasp. "Give her back." I commanded.
"I don't think so!" He said, and he had her in front of him so if I attacked him, I would have to attack her as well. I took more steps forward until I was looming over Seifer.(Which was odd...last time I checked, he was a little taller than me)
The Bond of Flame appeared in my other hand and I rose both over my head, ready to strike. I brought them down, so they would hit just Seifer, but then he did something that shocked me. Before I tell you what made my mouth drop, I'm going to remind you(in case you didn't know) that I hate Seifer with a burning passion rivaling five million burning suns. So.
The self-appointed fiancé of Naminé pushed her towards me so instead of Seifer getting the blow, she did. That was low. He knew that the hit would connect no matter what, so he had to push her towards me so she got it instead. It was an accident that I hit her. Fortunately, I was able to see her coming so my momentum stopped a little before my keyblades landed on her, so it didn't make as much of an impact as it would have.
"Well, Naminé, I appreciate that you don't want me to get hurt!" Seifer said, almost sarcastically. Before she fell into my arms, he snatched her back again and waved with one hand, the other holding onto her. When did Seifer get so fast? All that water must have made my reaction timing a little slower.
"Don't want you to get hurt?" She asked angrily, but before I could do anything about it, Seifer and her were whisked away into a dark portal.
-End of Day Seven-
"Two weeks, five days..." Kairi sighed, stretching her arms over her head. "...If you guys don't make it..." She got out her Roxas plushie(who now had a brown 'wig' to make it look like Sora) and hugged it.
She frowned. They had to make it, but if things went as planned then it wouldn't matter anyway. "Never ever again..."
-Day Eight-
(Naminé's POV)
"This is your Uncle, too?" After our little fiasco at the prison, I had fell unconscious and I woke up awhile ago. I was asking Marlene about her 'Uncles' who she thought were Sora and Roxas. But that can't be right. Because then that would mean that Sephiroth's other wife would be...
"Yup! Those are Daddy's brothers!" Marlene said cheerfully, pointing to the pictures of Roxas and Sora I drew.
"Along with Kadaj, Loz, and Yazoo?" I asked. She nodded. No...maybe Marlene was just confused. Maybe they were Vincent's wife's sister(who would be Tifa)'s sons', but maybe Vincent just told her that to avoid any confusion. "Where's your mom?"
"Mommy..." Marlene narrowed her eyes and stared at me. Now it was quite intimidating, because I had also learned that she gave me all of her angel blood(which, in turn, I gave to Roxas) so now she was full vampire. (I guess, in a way...Roxas is two halves of an angel and half human...can that be possible?) "I think Mommy is sealed up somewhere."
"Sealed up?" I asked. Why did Marlene's family have to be so confusing? Why couldn't she just have a regular father and mother not related to anyone? She nodded, but then thought about it for awhile(or seemed to) and shrugged.
"I think that's where Mommy is. Daddy says she's dead, but I don't believe him!" Marlene said. The only person to really get the truth from was either Vincent, Tifa, or Sephiroth. The first two I really had a doubt we were going to see unless the Mizu no Akashi showed up or Vincent showed up here to take Marlene.(Which I really hope didn't happen...)
"Where's Seifer?" I asked. Maybe if I asked nicely, he'd take me to Mizu no Akashi to ask Sephiroth himself. After all, Roxas was clearly not there so what would the problem be?
"He had to ask Lucifer-sama about something. I think he said it was about the wedding." Marlene said, thinking a moment before she had answered. I felt my heart drop in my stomach. I was getting married to Seifer in six days... But I didn't let that show, so I just nodded.
"So if Kadaj, Loz, and Yazoo are your uncles...then would you like to meet your grandfather?" I asked, and I couldn't imagine Sephiroth having grandkids. Went against the whole 'I am evil' image he seemed to possess.
"Grandpa Sephiroth?!?" Marlene's whole face lit up. "We can see Grandpa Sephiroth, Mistess Naminé?" She asked, having this pleading look in her eyes.
"Only if Seifer says yes..." I said, having to fix my eyes on another point. I couldn't say no to her. Why didn't Marlene use that face on Seifer? Well, then again, he's heartless so I doubt if he'll be fazed by her face.
"Oh...okay." She said, sighing. I smiled weakly and patted her on the back. Now we had to wait for Seifer.
-
"I'm ho-ome." Finally, after three hours, Seifer came back. Not that I was waiting for him(Well, I was in a way)...but I was kind of stuck here with Marlene. He walked in the room we were in and snatched my sktechpad away from me.
"Hey!" I shouted, trying to get it back, but he just turned the other way when I tried to grab it from him. "Give it back, Seifer!"
"Who's this?" He asked, showing me the picture I had drawn of Axel and another redhead, Sora, Roxas, Kairi, a silver-haired kid and I. He was pointing to the other redhead. I blinked, and shrugged. "And him?" He then pointed to the silver-haired kid.
"I don't know...I was having an out-of-body experience when I drew it." I said half-sarcastically, wondering why he cared so much. He flipped through the rest of my sketchbook and each page he flipped, his expression became more and more sad and angry. He threw my sketchpad on the ground after he was done.
"Almost every picture in there..." He started, and I knew what he was going to say. And I didn't want him to hit me again. So I had to catch him off guard.
"Can we go see Sephiroth?" I asked before he finished his sentence. Seifer stared at me for a long time with a raised eyebrow. "Seifer...can we go to Mizu no Akashi?" I asked slowly, as if I were teaching him a foreign language.
"No." He replied. I opened my mouth to say something else, but he shook his head. "Those Angels there are going to harass me and kidnap you, so, no."
'Kidnap? I'm already kidnapped!' I thought. After all, I really did not want to be here. He wasn't holding me for ransom, but I was here against my will. I looked at Marlene and mouthed a 'sorry' to her.
"Why do you want to go there anyway? Are you implying that you don't want to be in the presence of the Wonderful Lord Seifer of Darkness?" Seifer asked. What a stuck-up title for a stuck-up jerk. Figures.
"Of course not! But I want to travel! Staying here is so boring!" I exclaimed, and he grinned maliciously. I didn't like the way he looked; like he was coming up with a diabolical plan or something.
"Then I'll make sure we'll go someplace extra-special for our honeymoon..." He said, and I knew that he had something on his mind...
The idea of traveling didn't sound so good anymore.
-End of Day Eight-
"Two weeks, four days..." Kairi said, hugging her Roxas-disguised-as-Sora plushie. But the Princess was hyper. Very hyper. She didn't feel like going to sleep yet. So, she got up, and knwoing that the guard outside her room wouldn't let her out, she opened her window.
"Oh, that's a...long way down." She blinked, and backed up a little. Running towards the window and jumping out, she took a leap of faith. Kairi closed her eyes and prepared herself for any impact. She landed on something soft...almost...too...soft. She opened her eyes and gasped when she saw who she landed on.
-Day Nine-
(Roxas' POV)
I was in a different prison now. Instead of old bricks with dust seeping out of them there were now steel walls. I could hear all the guards outside talking to each other. I wasn't chained to anything, but those walls looked durable. Maybe they were made just to look that way. I backed up against a wall and sprinted to the wall on the opposite side. Shoulder, meet wall. Wall, meet shoulder.
Now I know that those walls aren't made out of steel. They're made of something harder. Error 314289. Information needed to identify substance not found. At least my machinery was working a little. It hadn't relayed any messages to me in awhile. When I had made contact with the wall, I had hit it hard enough to make a large noise, and the wall started to shake, but no dent in it was made. Along with the explosion-esque noise, my shoulder was sore. Due to the noise, all the guards came rushing in. Armed with guns, needles and other things that were so unpleasant I didn't want to say what they were.
"He tried to escape!" One guard shouted and they all ran at me. My wings appeared and the only good thing about this room was that it had a high ceiling that I flew near. They began shooting and throwing UFOs at me.
"I tried to, but I failed! Where's the harm in that?!?" I yelled, dodging most of their projectiles. Unfortunately, my Ultima wing was so freakin' BIG that it caught most of the objects. So, I started to lose balance because I was lopsided.
Then I had a brilliant idea.(which, according to most people, is rare for me) Change my Ultima wing to the Oblivion. So I did, but that left me with one wing for a moment. The same moment a guard managed to snag my Bond of Flame wing, and thus left me unable to fly.
And when you can't fly, you fall.
-End of Day Nine-
Due to the crisis Kairi is in, she is unable to tell you how her night went. Please standby as we find a substitute.
"This is ridiculous!" Sephiroth bellowed, pacing his room. The triplets were standing in front of him. "An OUTRAGE!" Each step threatened the collapse of the room, and his voice echoed a thousand times, making his poor sons' nearly deaf.
"Calm-"
"Down-"
"Father." The triplets said. Naminé was right. They did like doing that 'finish each other's sentence thing' a lot!
"How can I calm down?!? I AM the biggest villian in the HISTORY of Role Play Games, and now I find I'm just a SUBSTITUTE for some HOITY-TOITY PRINCESS that's supposed to be DEAD?!?" He roared, making the whole building shake. The triplets took steps back and cowered in fear. Sephiroth being angry was not a good thing.
"We understand, Father." Kadaj said.
"Maybe you are too great to be described in words!" Yazoo suggested, looking at his brothers.
"Yes, Father, any word would do you injustice!" Loz concluded, nodding their heads simultaneously. Sephiroth turned on his heel and looked at them for a long time. He let the idea sink in.
"Yes, I think that's it! It all makes sense now!" He exclaimed, letting One-Winged Angel play in the background. The triplets, not really liking Sephiroth's theme(because it was so...Sephiroth-y) just stood there, not knowing what to do. The rest of the night, Sephiroth talked about how he was the best video game villain in the history of video game villains...
-Day Ten-
(Naminé's POV)
"Guess what, Mistress Naminé?" Marlene asked, looking at what I was drawing. I was sitting in a chair at a table drawing. Just drawing. The vampire was leaning on the table and staring at my pencil.
"What?" I asked, not taking my eyes off the paper. What I was drawing– I don't know. But I did know, because I was drawing something.
"I can get into contact with Uncle Roxas!" She said happily, and that caught my attention. I stared at her, giving her that look said, 'I am totally and completely baffled at what you just said.' "He has my blood-"
"How do you know he has your blood?" I asked. I knew that, because, well, if Roxas is half-angel and goes around reviving people and sprouting wings at will, and I had all the angel blood that Marlene had...wouldn't I feel just a teensy bit more divine?
"I'm the daughter of the first vampire ever. And now I don't have any angelic blood left within me, I am fully a vampire. Like, for instance..." Marlene took a couple of steps back and pointed to my sketch pad. "That notebook. I now know how to move it without even touching it. See?" She bit her thumb so it bled, kneeled down, and drew a circle in blood. The circle glowed and my sketchpad floated in the air, like magic. After touching the ceiling, it floated back down to me again, and Marlene walked over to me, her face turning all red. "Um...Mistress Naminé...do you have a bandaid?"
"I don't think so..." I said, standing up and walking out of the room. Marlene followed me. However, I had no idea where I was going. I didn't really go out of my room all that much, and this house was huge as I soon discovered. So, I managed to get myself lost. But Marlene was by my side all the way. Which made me feel a little better. Especially when we(well, I) wandered into a hallway that got darker and darker...until it was SO dark that I could put my hand right in front of my face and not even see the outline.
"Um...Mistress Naminé?" Marlene whispered, grabbing onto my leg. "...why would there be a bandaid here? And...what's staring at us?" We saw millions of pairs of eerie, glowing yellow eyes drilling right into ours.
"Heartless!" I said, and as soon as I spoke, they attacked. I couldn't fight because the eyes disappeared and reappeared constantly. Almost on purpose, Marlene and I screamed simultaneously. I closed my eyes, waiting for anything...everything to come. Maybe nothing would happen if I died. Maybe I would just stay here.
"Naminé!" The Heartless backed away when it became lighter. We were in a hallway with a dead end. But the shadows were still there.There Seifer was, standing there. I had believed the voice to be Roxas. What a joke. The 'Almighty Prince of Darkness' looked absolutely livid. I didn't want him to hurt me again, so when Marlene let go of me, I ran up to him and gave him a hug.
"I'm sorry..." I said, forcing myself to cry so Seifer'd feel bad and wouldn't be angry anymore. "I'm so sorry..." He wrapped his arms around my waist.
"It's okay, Naminé. But once you learn to accept the darkness, the Heartless won't bother you like they won't bother me." He said, then let go of me and took a couple of steps back. "I don't think you'll get used to the darkness in awhile, though. You have been contaminated by the light. Just being around Roxas makes you reek of Heaven. But that's all going to change because Heaven's going to be no more."
My jaw dropped for the second time this week. "You can't mean-" Seifer nodded. I stomped my foot. "Roxas, you idiot!" I yelled although there was no way he could hear me, "Why'd you have to tell them?!?"
"He didn't want you to get hurt." He said as if it were common sense. "Stupid decision if you ask me. I would've told them in the first place so they'd let me out and not damage my precious body." He walked out of the hallway, and I ran after him, nodding my head to Marlene to let her know she could tag along.
I shook my head. I knew Roxas wasn't exactly the brightest star in the sky when it came to common sense...but how could he let this happen?
-End of Day Ten-
"I hate you, you know!" Kairi yelled, crossing her arms. The person whom she had fell on two days ago looked at her and snickered.
"Oh really? I'm surprised, hearing that from Princess Umiri." Said the person whose name shall not be known. 'Right, this person thinks I'm Umiri...' Kairi thought, not about to reveal her 'true' name to the person. 'I guess Umiri had some kind of connection with this person.'
"How could I not? You kidnapped me, after all. Took me away from my home, everything..." She said, crossing her arms. "At least get me back in two weeks, and two days." The person looked at her curiously.
"Really? What event is so important in two weeks, two days? That's rather specific, don't you think?" The person asked, staring right into her eyes. But Kairi didn't get intimidated at all. She was the type to stare right back. Nothing really unnerved her. The kidnapper must've thought her bravery admirable, because the person looked pretty shocked.(But quickly got over it)
"M-My sister's getting married!" Kairi lied, not going to get into details. Well, technically, she wasn't too far off mark...
"To who?"
"Why do you want to know?" She asked, uncrossing her arms. The kidnapper broke off the staring contest that had been going on between them.
"Why do you care if I know?"
"Why do you care if I care that you know?" Kairi countered.
"Why do you care if I care that you care that I know?"
"Why do you care if I care thta you care if I care--wait a minute, WHAT?" She asked, getting confused. The kindapper snickered.
"I should know who my next King will be. Or Prince, for that matter. I heard your sister was fooling around with some commoner..." The kidnapper said, waiting for the name. Truth was, the person didn't KNOW who Naminé was involved with, the person hoped to trick Kairi into thinking that her kidnapper knew so she'd tell anyway.
"You know about Roxas?" Kairi asked, surprised. Bingo. She fell right into the trap...the person grinned slyly.
"So, Roxas is his name, huh...?"
Part Two: White Night End
HnH: Day Seven was only in Roxas' POV(because I didn't know what else to do with Nai-Nai) and we skipped Day Six because Roxas' systems were rebooting and Nai-Nai was uncounscious. Day Twelve is the Weeding! YAY YAY YAY!! I didn't rush this chapter, but it did seem like it. -whisper- Guys, there's some Kairi bashing and the b word below...you've been warned...
ClownBoy: Wait...if I'M ClownBoy, then what does that make ROXAS?
Reno: Roxaman.
Axel: He's a ROCK, man.
ClownBoy: Haha! That's a STUPID name.
Roxaman: At least I don't have huge feet.
ClownBoy: -has a mental breakdown because his feet are a sensitive subject-
Myterious Masked Figure: Never fear, ClownBoy! For I am -removes mask- SexyBoy!
All: RIKU?!?
Riku...er...SexyBoy: No, I'm SexyBoy!
Roxaman: -scoffs- What a narcissist.
Kairi: -gasp- Roxaman's not having an affair with ClownBoy, is he?!?
Roxaman: What?!? Narcissism means you love you--oh right. We're the same person.
ClownBoy: I think it's more of incest. In a Kingdom Hearts way, I gave birth to you...I...think. :X Wow...finally, a man's way of having a kid!
Reno: Woah, so that'd mean Sora(All: ClownBoy!)'s a FATHER. Wait...if Roxas(All: Roxaman!) is ClownBoy's Nobody...then that means. :O I'm Axel's dad?...
Axel: Thanks for bringing the idea up, CLOWNBOY.
ClownBoy: -doesn't notice sarcasm- No problem!
Nai-Nai: -looks at Kairi- Wait...if SORA is ROXAS' father(which would be messed up) then would that mean...Kairi's MY father?...
All: -look to Kairi-
SexyBoy: I thought MARLUXIA had problems.
Larxene: -doubletake- That is ONE set of man boobs...
