Chapter 27: Yes, I've Lost My Mind
(Naminé's POV)
"No! No! Go offline! All systems OFFLINE! Shut off!" I shouted. It was dark so I couldn't tell what had rebooted, but it didn't sound too good. All I could see was an eye glowing. That was it.
"Please recite password and member ID." The machine said. I tilted my head. Maybe I should've gotten Axel or Roxas or someone, because I don't know what that means! After awhile, the glow faded from the eye. "No entry. Returning to standby."
"Okay, good! Stay that way!" I commanded it, and stood up. It freaked me out that I could actually be standing on a failed prototype that looked like a human or even an Organization member, but it was too dark to tell. Then the sound of a computer turning on rang out again. I gulped. I turned something on again? The one eye started to glow once more.
"Rebooting complete. Data update commencing. Please enter name." It said. I started to shake, clasping my hands together so I wouldn't be able to tell. You know, I once heard that being nervous was a psychological thing. I wondered what would happen if I said my name. 'Couldn't hurt, right?' I asked myself.
"Um...Naminé?" I stated, but it sounded more like a question than a statement. I didn't know what was going to happen. Was this thing that I accidentally rebooted going to kill me, protect me, follow me around, or what?
"Confirmed. Please enter security password." The machine said again, and the eye emitted a soft indigo glow. I wondered why there was only one eye and not two eyes. But right now I didn't spend any time on it.
"Um...uh..." This thing wanted a security password? That was a good thing, then I'd know what to say when it went berserk or something. 'Wait a minute...does Roxas have a security password?' I asked myself, then shook my head and said, "Please enter the security password as Twilight."
"Password saved. Beginning service software run and scanning for viruses. ... Virus scan complete, no threats detected. Service software uncorrupt..." The machine began to ramble on until he said, "Serial Number: SCW-000007-IE-IMC. Codename: Zexion. Reboot complete, Master." Zexion sounded familiar...
Wait, why was he calling me Master like Roxas had? "Um...uh...Replace your synthetic personality layers to how they were before." I didn't want anyone to act robotic around me. That was so creepy and it just was...inhuman.
"Confirmed. Removing synthetic personality layers; commencing."
-
(Third Person POV)
"O.M.G, Ienzo, look!" Raimaul shouted, pointing at the Cloaked Schemer. The other nine members of the Organization gasped. Ienzo seemed to be fading.
"I...I don't understand. What's happening to me? Am I...am I dying?" He asked, looking at his hands which were almost completely faded. Then, Bahamut appeared before all of them.
"Princess Naminé is calling you back to life. I cannot deny her request so I am sending your soul back to life." He said. Ienzo rose an eyebrow.
"She wants me to be back alive? I wonder why..." He said, then shook his head. "You don't have to follow her request, she's just a human. She can't do anything to you..." He trailed off.
Bahamut turned his head and crossed his arms. Ansem was the first to realize, and the first to laugh as well. "Ha! He's afraid that the Princess will sic Roxas on him!" The whole Organization chuckled at the thought of someone who had killed them being afraid of their very own thirteenth member. Bahamut cleared his throat and they all stopped laughing.
"Well, Ienzo, I will give you a moment to say goodbye to your friends before you return to your normal body." Bahamut said, then disappeared.
"Izzy, make sure you tell Naminé to bring back all of us!" Arlene chirped. Ienzo nodded and listened to each and every one of the Organization member's comments. Slowly, he started to fade completely.
"And yet another one is knocked off the island..."
-
(Naminé's POV)
"Replacement of synthetic personality layers completed." Zexion said, then shook his head. "So, where are we now?" He asked, looking at me.
"Um...Zexion, right?" I asked, and he shook his head again.
"That's not my name. It's Ienzo and although I cannot go against your orders, I will not answer to anything else." He said, crossing his arms.
"I'm sorry...Ienzo. Okay, so, can you get us out of here?" I asked, and he nodded. A book appeared in his hand and he seemed to read it and the door opened, flooding the dark room with light. He looked at where we were and the door and noticed that it was impossible for a normal human to jump that far.
"Hold on tight." He said, and I hesitantly hugged him. He wrapped one arm around me and before I knew it, we were back on the third floor with everyone else. Ienzo let go of me and stepped back. Axel was the first one to realize we were there, and he turned around. Once everyone noticed he was turned around, they turned around also.
"Wait a minute...that cloak!" Mother nudged Father in the rib. "Naminé, is the one accompanying you a...?"
"Yes." Ienzo answered for me, stepping up and crossing his arms. "I doubt you remember, but I am the seventh one that was made. You codenamed me Zexion, but my name is Ienzo. See?" He lifted the bangs covering one of his eyes(...so that explains why I didn't see his other eye glow...) to reveal a barcode over his closed eye. I winced. That had to have hurt.
"We have to talk to you about something later...but now..." Father trailed off, well, more like cut off, since Axel interrupted him.
Ienzo and Axel both began talking a language I couldn't understand. I looked at everyone else who's attention were on the two, and they couldn't understand either. I wondered what they were saying, but it seemed to be about me since they were glancing at me occasionally.
"What's this?" Selphie(she must have regained consciousness) asked, "They stopped fighting?!?" She and Irvine began to talk about why they weren't fighting. Of course, all eyes were on Axel and Ienzo, who were still talking in that strange language. Finally, one of the female mechanics could no longer stand it.
"OH MY GOD!" She shouted, and everyone looked at her. "You're soooo CUTE!" She ran over to Ienzo and tried to hug him, but he disappeared and reappeared behind me.
"No hugging. Unless Nami...Master...allows it." He said, struggling on the word 'Master'. I was about to tell him he didn't have to call me Master when Selphie's loud, annoying voice rang out again.
"And Roxas strikes Sora with another cheap one! Seems like Roxas can only win this thing with cheap shots." Selphie commented and I shook my head. We all turned around to watch the fight.
-
(Third Person POV)
Roxas kicked his brother in the stomach when he wasn't paying attention. "Can't let your guard down!" He shouted, and Sora then held out his keyblade in a guard position. Roxas smirked and ran towards his brother and broke his guard by striking the blade upwards, causing it to fly out of Sora's hands. Then Roxas tried to stab him, but Sora grabbed the Oblivion and took it out of his hands. Then Roxas tried to strike Sora with Ultima but his brother snatched the keyblade out of his hands, too.
Sora knew he couldn't handle all three keyblades in his un-suped up form, so he transformed into Final. He was able to wield Kingdom Key and Ultima telekinetically, while Oblivion was in his left hand.
"What?!? Final Form AGAIN?" Roxas yelled, shaking his head in disbelief. "I can only do Final Form once a week, at the very least!" Sora shook his head.
"I'm just better, smarter, faster, and not to mention cuter than you are." Unlike Roxas, Sora could go into Final Form twice as much as his brother could.
The Bond of Flame appeared in the blonde's hand, and he backed up. Sora rose an eyebrow and then kneeled low to the ground, as if getting ready for a race. Gliding across the floor at an incredible rate, Sora got ready to strike his brother with all three keyblades at once. Using the Oblivion to break Roxas' guard just like the blonde himself had done, Sora then channeled some of his holy power(Sora is a half-angel too, ya know) and all of his strength into the fist that he was not using. Then he punched his brother's jaw and the momentum of the force sent Roxas up, up, and away...
"It's a bird!" They heard Selphie yell.
"No, it's a plane!" Irvine argued.
"NO, IT'S ROXAS!" They both shouted simultaneously as the whole audience watched Roxas fly slowly through the air like a pretty butterfly...
The blonde did not have his keyblades so he could not fly, so the supposedly 'cuter' twin had the advantage. Sora then glided above his brother and elbowed him in the stomach, sending him downwards. When his poor brother hit the ground, he rebounded and in that little space Sora slide the Ultima under him and with a flick of the wrist holding that blade, sent him flying(again). Before he could get any air, Sora hit him with the Kingdom Key and sent him towards a wall. But the brunette was not done with the assault on his brother just yet.
Gliding towards the wall that Roxas would hit, Sora calculated where exactly he would hit within a millisecond of a millisecond of a nanosecond. He stuck a keyblade in the part of the wall that Roxas would hit. Sora and the rest of the audience watched(the audience in horror, Sora in some undefined emotion) as Roxas hit the keyblade. However, since the handle was sticking out, it didn't go through him(Sora could've sworn he heard Naminé sigh in relief). When he rebounded from the impact, the blonde got smarter. Before Sora could continue with his wicked combos, Roxas used his all-powerful matrix moves to somehow dodge the keyblade that would've sent him in the air for the third time, and grabbed the keyblade to help him flip so that he was now crouched down on top of the Kingdom Key, which was the one sticking out of the wall. Roxas shook his head, trying to get his mind off of the pain in his back. He felt like that keyblade had snapped his spine in half.
Roxas noticed the Bond of Flame some feet behind Sora and summoned it as his brother backed up. Getting ready to use the wall as a springboard, he did another flip(one thing Cid DID do was somehow make him excellent at acrobatics) so his feet were on the wall and before he fell, Roxas grabbed the Kingdom Key and pushed off the wall, flying towards Sora with unheard of speed. The brunette placed the Kingdom Key and Bond of Flame in an 'X' formation so he would guard against the blonde's attacks. Of course, Roxas had another plan.
Losing a lot of speed by dragging the Kingdom Key on the floor, he got near the ground just as he was getting close to Sora. Turning his inevitable fall into a forward dodge roll(as he did just that--dodge the three keyblades that would've hit him) he used the Kingdom Key and Bond of Flame as springboards to help him pop up and hit his brother which sent him flying. But Roxas could not give Sora a taste of his own medicine. He was dead tired, his back felt like a bent piece of cardboad, and his muscles felt as if they were on fire...if he could feel, that is. Huffing, he took this moment not to deal some damage to Sora, but take a miniature break. While the brunette was helping himself off of the floor, Roxas took the time to address a particularly nasty wound above his eye. It would be a detriment to Roxas if he could only see out of one eye.
Even though he had gained some of his breath back, his strength was gone. It wouldn't be fair to Sora if he used the strength of other people. 'Oh wait. I cheated a long time ago.' Placing the Bond of Flame in the ground, he turned it like he was unlocking a door. "Give me strength!"
-
"Hey...is that Roxas' voice we hear?" Raimaul shouted. "He's saying 'Give me strength!' Well, we better give him some! Right, Arlene?" The blonde nodded and punched a fist into an open palm as she scanned the now-pathetic bunch of weapons.
"Right! 'Kay everyone, we're going to lend our strength to him so Roxas can do whatever he needs to do. Got it?" She commanded. Everyone groaned and some even wondered why their own Superior did not say something against the now-lowest ranking member of the Organization.
"Got it." Ansem said, and another chorus of groans followed. "Oh shut up, you babies. As members of the Organization, we have to help our fellow member out."
"It's not like we're using that strength anyway!" Raimaul chirped, then added, "I mean, we're just sitting here waiting for the gateway to open..."
"Which it never will..."
-
Roxas felt strength pump into him. He knew the Organization was helping him out; they always did everything for him. He didn't feel any wear or tear any more. Of course he still had his injuries, but they just didn't hurt. Sora got back up and charged at him. The blonde quickly guarded with the Bond of Flame.
Sora then did a amazingly performed roundhouse kick, but his brother grabbed his foot so the kick was stopped. The brunette thought for a moment before jumping and spinning so that his other leg kicked his brother in the face, knocking him down. Sora tried to stab him, but the blonde rolled out of the way and stood up. Roxas then ran low to the ground and tried to knock him down but the elder twin just jumped and stabbed the younger twin right in the back, pinning him down. Sora backed away, not wanting to get blood all over him. Roxas got up and took the keyblade out of him, the beautifully blue Ultima now stained in red.
Roxas charged, attacking at an insanely fast rate. Sora teleported behind him and hit him in the side as if he were hitting a golfball with a keyblade. Roxas fell to the floor, did a backwards roll and jumped to tackle his brother to the ground. He punched Sora in the head four times(twice with each fist) before the brunette knocked the blonde off of him. They stood up and stared at each for a moment. Then, he dropped his keyblades. Roxas rose an eyebrow and did the same.
"How about a good, old-fashioned street fight? Anything goes, but you can't call on anyone else. Deal?" Sora asked, and Roxas smirked. The blonde thought he could beat his brother hands-down in a street fight. The Organization had taught him how to fight well, and who did Sora have as his mentor?
Sora rose his hand which quirked another eyebrow. Now it was a strength contest. "Don't make me laugh." Roxas scoffed and shook his head.
"Making you laugh is the least on my mind. I'm just worried about seeing you cry." Sora replied, and Roxas felt insulted by that. He glanced back at Naminé who had a very worried expression on her face.
'Hmph. I'm going to show that dumb blonde that she doesn't need to worry about me!' He thought, placing his hand up to his brother's. They both heard a chorus of giggles from the annoying female announcer.
"OHMIGOSH! Lookieeee! They're holding hands! How cuuuuuttteee!" She giggled. Both brothers shook their head as Irvine explained.
"They're not HOLDING HANDS, Selphie. They're going to see how's stronger by seeing who gets on their knees first." He said, sighing.
As soon as the announcer who seemed like she was on crack shut up, the brothers got on with their 'test of strength'. Roxas had to use both hands just to keep standing. He was sliding back from the force of Sora's strength. 'I thought Sora was strong...but he completely overpowers me! He's not even breaking a sweat! My sensors have got to be wrong. There is NO way he is only ten percent stronger than me...maybe that blonde bimbo was right to worry about me...' Roxas thought in disbelief. He was on one knee in no time. Sora then grabbed Roxas by his shoulders and with unheard of strength, through him into a wall that was not yet destroyed.
The wall was decimated within minutes. You could only see blonde hair peeping out of the rubble, and a gloved hand on top of a rock. Sora brushed off his outfit and waited patiently for his brother. This wasn't even a stretch for him. Sora's strength far outpowered Roxas', but Roxas was much too proud to admit it. It was because of her...The brunette glanced at the beautifully blonde girl. 'You don't know what you do to my brother...' He chuckled, shaking his head as he heard the rubble move. There was his brother, bloody, bruised, and battered. Roxas looked like he couldn't handle anymore.
"Just give up, Roxas." Sora suggested. The wall cracking on top of the blonde had opened his head. Roxas was wearing a crimson mask, blood was all over his face. His joints, such as the knee and elbow, were sparking. The skin on his right cheek had completely torn away, revealing the mechanics that were now sparking due to the blood over them. It was a terrible sight to look at. It made Roxas look undeniably, yet adorably emo for a moment. You could practically hear the worry on the audience's, especially one Princess, faces.
"N...n...ev...er." He stuttered, placing both hands on one knee because the other was limp. Sora frowned. It pained him just to see his own blood messed up like that.
"I'm sorry you feel that way." The brunette said, and his momentary pity for his twin turned out to be a weakness. As Roxas, with the strength the Organization lent him, clotheslined his brother. A clothesline is nothing more than running(flying in Roxas' case, because he couldn't run) towards your opponent, and holding out your arm so that the opponent gets knocked flat to the ground. Which was performed quite nicely.
However, Sora then swept his brother's legs from out under him so he would fall. Before he fell to the ground, though, the brunette quickly stood up and grabbed his neck. "I wish I didn't have to do this, Roxas..." His eyes flashed a red before reverting back to their cerulean blue, "...Setting A.I. Difficulty to Maximum. Damage Output increased by 300 percent. Switching into Combat Mode." Then, Sora gripped Roxas' neck tighter and tighter until sparks started to come out of that, too.
'Dammit! NOW he's going into combat mode! He was just toying with me before!' Roxas thought, clawing at the hands that were keeping him from breathing. 'I can't sense how much stronger he is than I am right now--I can't even COMPARE myself to him! We're in two completely different leagues!'
He then threw Roxas onto the floor. The strength of the throw sent the blonde completely through the floor and onto the next level. Sora dropped down to where his brother fell. The brunette grabbed his brother's arm and threw him upwards towards the ceiling, which was the floor for the level they had just been on. It sent him clear through the wall and flying. Sora's strength was completely uncomprehensible at this point. The brunette teleported next to his brother. "Please tell me you give up..."
"N...n..no..."He said, taking his time in standing up. You could tell Roxas was practically done--his movements were not fluid and did not flow together like a normal human's, he reverted to moving like a machine. Sora shook his head and ran towards his brother.
Roxas rolled out of the way of his brother's charge and then quickly got up and did a chokehold on him. Sore backfisted him in the forehead, but Roxas did not let go. The brunette then elbowed him in the stomach with all his might, and that sent the blonde sprawling backwards. The blonde summoned his keyblades, and Sora did the same as he charged. The younger Hikari put up a pitiful defense that Sora broke with just a slash. He then hit his brother with the handle of the keyblade, then flipped it around to hit him in the air.
He teleported next to his brother and slashed him in the side, sending him flying towards a wall. Before he demolished yet another wall, the brunette teleported behind and struck him down to the ground. He was about to continue his assault, but he thought enough was enough.
Sora knew that Roxas was gone because his eyes were closed. He kneeled down and since the brunette still had his dogtag, he placed it in the blonde's mouth and kicked his jaw shut. He looked at the commentators and gave them a thumbs-down.
"Game over."
-
(Naminé's POV)
"And the victor is: Sora!" Selphie announced. I turned around and placed a hand over my mouth. I couldn't believe it. The female mechanics looked pretty proud of themselves.
"We should go down and collect our prize, right?" They snickered, and I turned to Ienzo.
"Ienzo, make sure they don't get to Roxas!" I said. I was determined to get to Roxas this time, and all four of us jolted out the door. Ienzo was trying to stop the two girls, and I was trying to get there before them. Unbeknownst to them, I was really following them to see where it was. When we went down two flights of stairs, there was just big, open space. The floor was bloodied and cracked, and the walls needed reconstruction badly. I saw Roxas and Sora, and Ienzo held the two female mechanics back as I ran to them.
"Roxas!" I yelled, kneeling down beside him and trying to get the dogtag out of his mouth. It wouldn't budge. I hear that once you die, your body locks in the position you die in. I lowered my head to his heart. No beating. I could tell he wasn't breathing either. I checked for a pulse. No pulse. I started to cry waterfalls and waterfalls. I couldn't control my tears. His whole face was bloody... "Roxas! My poor, poor, Roxas..." I whined, placing a hand on the cheek that the skin hadn't peeled away on. I then directed my anger at Sora. "HOW COULD YOU KILL HIM! HE'S YOUR OWN BROTHER!!!" I screamed, standing up and slapping him clear across the face.
Sobbing, I sank back to my knees. I shook my head and looked back at Roxas. I hid my pain-stained face from the world with my hands. I bet my eyes were all red and puffy; it felt like it.
"I'm sorry. It was for your best interest, Naminé." Sora said, placing a hand on my shoulder. I was about to snap at him, going to ask him why he wasn't showing any emotion. But he was. He was crying just as much as I was. I couldn't even speak I was so grieved. No one would understand how I feel...
"You know," I heard someone say. I wiped the tears away from eyes and saw a blob of red and black. It had to be Axel, "Roxas isn't really dead."
"What?" We asked simultaneously. Oh thank Authority! I saw the blob of red and black, Axel, kneel down to the black and dark yellow blob, which was Roxas. I don't know what Axel was doing, but he seemed to check something and then he stood up and nodded.
"He's not dead, but he's out. Seven weeks, to be precise. AND," He added, a purple and black blob coming over to join the red and black and the brown blobs. "We need to get his personality back." I saw a bigger black blob come closer. I wiped away my tears as my vision became clearer. The bigger black blob was Axel's hand. I took it and stood up. "We need to get the real Roxas back. Naminé, you're going to handle it. Ienzo and I will tell you what to do."
"M-Me?!?" I stuttered, and my knees buckled. Ienzo caught me.
"Are you okay, Na...Master? Axel, I think we should tell her later. I'm identifying her as unstable to handle any information at this moment in time." He said, helping me stand. "Are you..."
I don't know what happened, but suddenly I saw the blobs replace the people again and felt as if there were streams running down my cheeks. Then, more and more black blobs filled my vision...until I could see nothing but black...
-
I don't know when I woke up next, but the only person around was Ienzo. "How long...was I asleep for?" I asked. I felt like I was about to burst into tears because of Roxas, but I remembered what Axel told me.
"Two days. How are you feeling, Master?" He asked, and I sat up. I rubbed my head and sighed.
"Not too good. I have to perform surgery on Roxas, right?" I asked. I couldn't see him cut open! I would panic and probably slice a needed wire or something.
"Axel and I talked it over and we thought that you couldn't handle it. Although you are most equipped to handle it...we chose Cid to do the surgery and it's safe to say Roxas came through." He noticed my panicked look and added, "Axel and I were right behind him. We made sure he replaced the right stuff. Roxas is Roxas now. But I have some bad news..."
"What?" I asked, biting my lip. No bad news...I didn't want bad news.
"You know the whole reincarnation situation?" He asked and I nodded slowly, "Well, since you guys technically corrected the mistake you made, Kairi's gone. So is Sora, and the evil Roxas is gone, too. Both Hikari brothers are out of commission. Sora until he gets his soul back, and Roxas until six week and six days. That's the bad news."
"Kairi..." I shook my head. My sister had already died. That was just a pale imitation of her. A fake. I disliked her anyway. "Are you sure Roxas is Roxas? Can I see him?"
"Well, he's not functional now, but if it's your wish--"
"Yes, it's my wish. I want to see him even if he's offline or whatever." I cut him off, crossing my arms. He opened his mouth to say something, then closed it. He then exited the room and closed the door behind him. I frowned and got out of bed. I then fixed my hair and got dressed so I was presentable. Hey, even if Roxas couldn't see me and he was virtually dead, I still wanted to look nice.
I went outside, and Ienzo gave me a 'Follow me' gesture and I did so. Though this was the castle, I didn't know where they were keeping Roxas. I bet it was the guest bedrooms. After passing a couple of hallways, I realized I was right. Ienzo opened a room and I rushed in.
Tifa was there, feeding her son(who was lying on the bed with his eyes closed) some soup. It looked like she was force-feeding him, because Roxas looked dead to the world. I rushed over to her and looked at the blonde I loved.
"Is he alright? I mean, he looks better from yesterday..." I said, biting my lip. I could cry just remembering how he looked when he was busted open. It was a terrible sight to behold. It really was. His cheek was all fixed and he had bandaids and bandages all over him. Poor Roxas...I just wanted to hug him and tell him everything'd be alright, but it wouldn't do him any good. It would make me feel better, though.
"At least Roxas is still alive. Sora, too. Naminé, do you think you could feed Roxas the rest of the soup? I need to go check up on my other son." Tifa said, and before I could protest, was out of the way already. I looked at Ienzo, who shrugged. Then I looked back at Roxas.
"Okay..."
-
(Roxas' POV?!?)
"Ow..." I moaned, holding my head. That fight...I never thought Sora could dish out the hurt like that.
"Roxas." I heard a powerful voice say. I immediately got up and turned around. There Sephiroth was, with a halo(that he didn't look too proud about) over his head and only one wing showing. He gave off this peaceful silver glow. But something was wrong. When you go full-blown Angel, all of your wings show. 'So if only one of his wings is showing, that must mean Sephiroth...'
"Look, I know you hate me, but I'm in no condition to fight you!" I said, then realized we were in Betwixt and Between. Sephiroth shook his head and he pointed at me.
"Have you not realized? You are in the presence of the Authority. He could not come down here Himself, so He sent me." He said, and I looked at myself. He was right. I felt my halo and my six wings were shining very brightly. All six...However, Sephiroth did not give me any time to marvel as he added, "Because Axel failed to tell you what he came back to life to do, I need to tell you."
"Axel needed to tell me something?" I asked, sitting down. Sephiroth nodded.
"The Authority...wants to thank you for getting rid of one of Lucifer's pawns. He's giving you back one of your wings," Sephiroth threw a keyblade at me, and I caught it. "Fenrir. And He...He told me to tell you that you are the only six-winged angel in the entirety of Heaven and Earth, so..." He trailed off, not looking so happy.
"So...?" I asked, looking at the Fenrir. It flashed and one of my wings materialized. So, I truly needed only one more keyblade and I could have all six of my wings.
"He is granting you one wish. Anything in the entire world. Anything anyone could ever ask. If you want world domination, you got it. If you want to become the most venerated figure in history, it's at your fingertips. Heaven is bowing to you right now. What shall you wish for?"
Now I get my opportunity to get anything. I could wish for anything I wanted. But that was thing--I couldn't want. "You said anything? Then I wish for--"
Sephiroth looked shocked when I stated what I wished for. "Wow. What they say up in Heaven about you really is true. Are you sure that's what you want to wish for?" I nodded.
"Yes. More than anything." I said, and nodded. Sephiroth sighed and shook his head. "What? What do they say about me up in Heaven?" I asked. Of course I didn't care if rumors started or whatever, and how could they? They have my life on a leash. They can look down on the world whenever they wish.
"Hikari e, Roxas. Hikari e."
I smiled and nodded.
"Hikari e."
Scene One: Angelic Love Guided by Eternity
End
HnH: Sorry for the short chapter. I just reeeaaally wanted to end it with 'Hikari E' because that's a song that's the shiznic.
Roxas: -sarcastic- I bet you guys SOOOO want to know what I wished for. -eye roll-
Larxene: Roxas, stop being facetious!
Roxas: WHAT? Larxene, you did NOT just call me a pile of feces.
Axel: HEY! It's my girlfriend and if she wants to call you a big pile of crap, then by Xemnas, she'll call you a big pile of crap!
Xemnas: What do I have to do with this?!?
Reno: Oh, you know. You know.
Xemnas: -notices Reno for the first time this story- OH ROXAS, NOW THERE'S TWO OF THEM!
Roxas: What? -looks at Xemnas-
Xemnas: Well, instead of saying 'Crap' I said 'Roxas' because you're a big pile of feces, so, yeah.
Demyx: -comes in wearing a sombrero- ¿Qué pasa? -does the Mexican hat dance-
Roxas: -is T.O.ed- WHERE DID ALL THE MUSIC COME FROM?!?
Kairi, Nami, and Olette: -does the Mexican hat dance along with Demyx-
Sora's Ghost: EVERYONE AROUND ME IS DYING!
Pence: Whatcha you talkin' 'bout, Willis?
Sephiroth: Pence.
Pence: Yes?
Sephiroth: I AM YOUR FATHER.
Pence: That was totally uncalled for. NOO-prolonged, matrix-like 'no'-
HnH: Wow. Just...Wow. Oh, I couldn't add Lar-Lar to the story because her calling Nami 'Master' would sound kind of weird...
Larxene: -gigglesnort-
HnH: I know this chapter was kind of lackluster, but I kinda wanted to add Zexion(Zexion: -runs-) in there 'cause I love 'im and who CAN'T? He's almost -gasp- EMOER THAN ROXAS!!!
All: -gasp-
Roxas: -snaps fingers in Z formation- OH NO YOU DIDN'T!
Zexion: BRING IT!
Roxas: Oh, it's been brought, hone.
All: o.0
