Author's Notes: No I don't mind critiques as long as there's no flame with it. . The story is meant to be really confusing. You just have to figure it out by yourself. With my own twists. Yes, the characters are OOC, I am aware of that but I am actually doing this on purpose, I really like the Namine in this story, and so as Sora's and Kairi's and Riku's!!! Generally, I don't think it's wrong to make them OOC.
I guess, you just have to take all sorts of it to figure out the twists here. There are scenes that seems to be pointless, but it would make sense once it is mentioned to the future chapters and its connection with it. I'm actually starting a new writing style with this story.
Starting this chapter, I would give my twists so the other characters can finally come out. Now, please expect Aerith, Cloud, Yuffie, Tifa and Axel to have major roles from now on, and so as Tetsuya Nomura. Anyway, other Org. XIII such as Larxene, would also play an important role!!! And btw, Olette won't have a lot of scenes now. In this chapter and some of the future, it would mostly center on the Blacks and Roxas' awaited relationship with Namine and—Riku and Cloud's connection to each other.

Roxas' annoying conscience
"Hmmm…" Namine woke up and scented the aroma of pancakes… She stood up from her bed and went to the kitchen, finally seeing her long lost uncle. Well…that's what I at least think…
"Hey, breakfast is served!!!" Tetsuya said in a pink apron.
"Tsuya-chan!!!" Namine cried and punched his shoulder.
"Oi, what is it?"
"You! You haven't even phoned after quickly vanishing!!!"
"Oooh…were you that lonely? Gomen, gomen…" he apologized. But she frowned.
"Of course I am!!!" she snapped. He wondered to himself if he fed Namine right. Was it in the video games then? That kingdom hearts sure made her teary-eyed… This is such a strange reaction.
He slyly smiled and patted her head. "Have you been sleeping on other people's beds?" he kidded. Namine stiffened. Ack…Nigasa…
"You are so not funny." She sternly gazed at him.
"Okay fine…anyway, we'll find a remedy for your problems. Whatever those are." He said, putting her sunny side up and pancakes on a plate.
"Ah! Tsuya-chan, I also want to ask you about my memories of the past, there's so much I wanted to ask you!!!" she exclaimed. He stiffened more.
"So, come home early, okay?" Namine said.
"Ah…Tsuya-chan, I need to go…the people at SE were looking for you by the way."
"Okay, ja! See you." Namine left, and he let out a defeated sigh.
"This is not good, maybe I should run away," he said to himself. He went to his room and got out an old box. He opened it there were photographs of Namine's mother, and most importantly, Tsukamoto Roxas. "Ack, one-chan, your daughter is hardheaded as you!!!" said Tetsuya to a photo.
"But I think…it's still early for her to know…"
"I'm so happy!!!" Tsuya-chan is back home!!! Namine twirled around the streets of Shibuya.
"This is just great! You actually got Azuhime-san!!!" cheered Seifer.
"Yeah! We actually got 30 today!!!" said Kairi.
"Honestly, I don't remember doing anything at all! Azuhime-san just joined in!!!" Namine said.
"I sympathize our leader's simple mind." Taunted Sora.
"Am I really that simpleminded…" Namine wondered.
"Hey guys! What's up?" It was Olette.
"Ah! Azuhime-san! We're having a meeting! Come and join us!" offered Namine. Olette looked at Kairi and Namine starry-eyed. Sora smirked as Olette sat beside him.
"You do know that I don't care for the revolution! I'd rather not have you guys as my partner!" she hissed at him.
"Oh! I see! You are just great!!!" said Sora out loud.
"What is it?" Namine asked.
"You're going to help us increase more Grays, right, Azuhime-chan???" said Sora. He smirked mentally. Olette got shocked and gloomy. "Azuhime has a lot of fans, besides, I have already finished my work!!!" said Sora.
"Really Azuhime-san?! You would help us right?" everyone got starry-eyed.
"We're counting on you!!!"
"Leave it to me…" Olette hesitantly said with a vein popping on her head. "Someday, I'm gonna put a burning toy in your bag," she menacingly told to Sora.
"Awww…" was Sora's reply.
Namine noticed Kairi fidgety and quiet.
"Kairi, are you okay?"
"Huh, I'm fine!!!"
Oh really…
"Well, we have 126 students on our side! If we keep this strategy we'll win for sure!!!" said Rai.
"Hmm…okay. This month, I wan to increase some girls," said Namine. There were only few of them, she can count.
"When the 3rd term starts, the seniors are preparing for the finals so they won't come often, this would be harder. We'll hear our plans to Sora."
"Okay." Namine took a seat and Sora took the spotlight.
"For us to increase the number of female students, I've gathered the list of girls who have gained some sort of specialty and name. I also listed some of their 411s and how to deal with them—"
"Excuse me, but what are we going to do about the main reason girls aren't willing to join us?" Asked Wakka.
"I'm talking about the bullying, most of the girls put this reason on so they can't get hurt." He added.
"Oh…I see." Said Namine, pondering.
"I thought of a solution for this," said Sora.
"First we have to take on the boss of the girls' bullying group,"
"Oh, her." Said Seifer.
"She should be…" said Olette.
"If we don't get rid of her…" said Kairi.
"Who are you guys talking about? Who is she?" Namine asked.
"Ack, one of the gray eliminating groups, known as 'Cho'." Said Sora.
Namine rolled her eyes. "Another one?! Gimme a cookie!"
"But we'll have to leave that problem in the meantime."
"Are you sure, that Cho is dangerous as such?" Namine asked.
"Sshh!!! You're so noisy!!!" warned Sora.
"Okay so I guess it is…"
"Heartless and Kurasukuwa moved for their group's sake. However, Cho is different. She can't resist bullying others for fun."
Hmm…what's that noise? Kairi thought as she went inside the classroom.
She saw the tables turned, and her bag opened. She quickly ran to it. I can't tell Nami…it'll just bother her!!! Her books were scattered and torn apart, her stuff were scattered everywhere.
"How are we supposed to confront this Cho? With that kind of personality…"
"To counterattack, we need to have an ally, someone to back us up, we're going to that person now." Said Sora as he led the walking on the hallways.
"Who?! Is he stronger than the gangsters?!" asked Namine excitedly.
"Aerith Gainsborough." Namine stopped for a while and looked at Sora. Aerith…that's a girl's name!!! But more over…I think I heard that name before…
"Oi, it's one of the Kurasukuwa! Cloud Strife!" Sora pointed to the other side of the building. Ah…that reminds me…
"Ah! Strife-san! Have you thought about joining the Grays?" Namine yelled at the other side of the building, spotting the spiky blonde senior. The Black glared at her and ignored her.
"Well, someone's in a bad mood."
"What do you want about Strife?" came a voice behind them.
Namine turned around to see Riku's annoying face.
"Ack! It's you…" A vein popped in his head and whacked her.
"What was that for you airhead?!" Namine kicked him on the shin.
Oooh…look at them, bonding. Sora thought.
Right in the middle of Namine and Riku's brawl/catfight in the hallway, Cloud came out of nowhere. "Nigasa, Takaishi, there's strange people waiting for you outside. And they're yelling to 'get Nigasa and Takaishi to come out'. Done something stupid lately?" Cloud mocked.
"Huh?" the two of them looked at the window to see the yakuza that were chasing them few weeks ago.
"Don't get cocky, Nigasa," Cloud warned, making Riku tick off.
"This yakuza has their own violent background, they're pretty much, dangerous. I don't know what Takaishi's in for. Surprised, that they came all the way here to the school. Did you two gotten some sort of trouble?" The senior asked.
Riku rolled his eyes, his pride, plunging. "Sort of…"
"This is your entire fault! Getting annoyed over a little thing!!!" Namine accused the silver haired.
"How dare you say that to the one who saved you!!!"
"Are these the people who attacked you few weeks ago, Nami?" Sora asked, but he was completely ignored. Hm…that means they're gone for revenge for Nigasa…Azuhime can't get blamed for this anymore…
"Will you two quit it?" said Cloud as he kicked Riku.
"Hmph. If they want a fight, I'll give them one!" said Riku, with furious eyes in anime-style, his fists meeting each other. Cloud laughed with the cold eyes. "And I thought you grew up."
"Nigasa-san!!! Are you sure about this?!" the other Blacks worried.
"Shut up! I can't lose my pride!" said the egomaniac.
"This has nothing to do with you guys, so back off!"
"No way! They've got weapons!" Namine disagreed.
"Bring whatever they want I don—" Sora whacked Riku on the head with a baseball bat. He collapsed. And suddenly, Sora whacked Cloud too.
Namine stared at him disbelief as a flower grew on her head.
"Why did you hit him?"
"We need to make him Gray! With him, girls would line up joining our side!!!" answered Sora with a big smile.
"Rope please!" yelled Sora.
"What does the current situation concern about me?" asked Cloud, sweat dropping, who was tied on the pillar of the computer room.
"Takaishi! Don't think you'll get away tying me up like this!!!" threatened Riku with pointy teeth.
"You be quiet!!!" Sora put on a masking tape on Riku's large mouth.
"We don't care what happens to you, but those people want out leader too. So we won't let you do anything stupid!!!" said Sora.
"I actually enjoy seeing you like this, Nigasa!" teased Namine.
"Hm…this is getting boring, what do you think we should do?" asked Seifer.
"Hmm…right now, we need to get Aerith Gainsborough to help us."
"But Sora! She's a girl!!!" protested Namine.
"Don't underestimate her, Nami. She can scare these hooligans away." Replied Sora.
"You actually think she'll help you…" muttered Cloud under his breath.
"Did you say something?" Sora asked as a flower grew on his head.
"Nothing…"
"Right, but I don't think she'll be at help…" said Seifer.
"Yeah…"
"Hm…Aerith Gainsborough…why is it familiar?" Namine wondered.
Aerith Gainsborough
Inoue Axel
Kisaragi Yuffie (A/N: I changed it ok?)
Selphie Tilmitt
Orikaede Tidus
"Ah she was first on the list! One of the five original Grays!!!"
"Yup!"
"Hey Kazenuchi-san, I saw Gainsborough today," said Rai, who passed by.
"She came to school today!?"
"Yah! I was really surprised to see her come! She rarely does!"
"Well, that's our cue!!!" and Sora and the others ran off.
Namine felt left out, and she never wanted to get stuck with two Blacks.
"Ei!!! Wait for me!!!" she followed behind.
And the two Blacks were alone.
Cloud lazily grinned at Riku, who glared at him. "It seems she's back."
"I wonder what kind of girl Gainsborough is…" Namine wondered. She then heard melody coming from the music room. That's nice… She entered the room. There was senior playing the piano. She had long light brown hair tied in a ponytail and vibrant green eyes.
"Excuse me, but is Aerith Gainsborough here?" she asked. The senior looked at her and then went back to playing. "Please take seat."
"Huh?"
"Questions after I finish playing."
"Ah…okay." Namine sat on an empty chair. She's beautiful…She looked at her clothes to see whether she was a Black or a White. Wah! A Gray!!!
She closed her eyes and felt the music. This piece…makes me nostalgic…it remembers me a lot of my past… unaware, she started crying. I'm sorry I can't remember you, Kairi. I'm sorry, I can't remember you too, Roxas.
Once the music stopped, the girl was shocked to see her crying.
"Why are you crying?" she asked.
Namine opened her eyes to realize that the piece was already finished. She wiped her eyes.
"Ah! That music you played! It's so nice! It makes me happy and sad at the same time! Who's piece is that?" she enthusiastically asked.
The girl blushed. "…I composed it."
"Really?! That's so awesome!!! You are so great! And your playing of the piano is excellent!" she praised. The girl blushed again.
"Thanks." She then turned to the blonde.
"So, what do you want?"
"Huh?"
"You want something from me, right?"
"Ah! I'm looking for someone! Her name is Aerith Gainsborough!" Namine replied. She was flattered but showed no interest.
"…I am Aerith Gainsborough."
Namine stared at her, her jaw hit the floor.
An OOC Aerith, that's for sure. Anyway, thank you to everyone who reviewed!!! I actually think, Takaishi Namine is sounds uber cool!!!
Anyway, that's it for now and please review!!!
