A/N: Here's the second to last chapter (possibly) of Sora's story.

Auraheart: I agree. I enjoy the manga a lot. And with Marluxia…I really can't take him seriously. Especially because of the fact his weapons are named after flowers.

Silent Searcher: Actually, I think Sora was less of a jerk in the game, but he didn't need to be so aggressive about saving Naminé. I mean, really. He wasn't that aggressive when saving Kairi. Also, have a nice holiday!

I own nothing but Penelope.

Here's chapter 6!

Chapter 6: Sora's Story Pt 3
Where they were at now, Donald and Goofy were admiring the sunset of this odd, new place.

"Look! What a beautiful sunset." Donald said as he admired it.

"A-hyuck." Goofy agreed.

"Where are we, Sora? I've never been here." Donald told him.

"Me neither." Sora told them, which took Donald and Goofy aback.

"Huh? But up until now, we've only been to places from your memory." Donald pointed out. Right now, that didn't seem to be the case.

"Yeah…but I definitely don't remember this." Sora replied to Donald.

"Maybe you have forgotten the town just like other stuff. We have gone pretty far into the castle." Goofy suggested to Sora.

That really couldn't be the case, as they hadn't been there before. "Or it could be a trap set by that guy!" Donald shouted. That made more sense in ways.

"But…there's something familiar about this place." Sora pointed out.

As they wandered through the town, at some point, they began walking through a forest. This resulted in more questions in hopes that Sora knew where they were.

"Well, Sora?" Donald asked him.

"Um…It does feel familiar, but…I don't actually remember anything." He looked at Naminé's charm. "Maybe it really is a trap. I mean, I did manage to remember Naminé, who Penelope said she didn't' remember."

When they reached the mansion, they heard a voice… NO, IT WASN'T SLENDER.

"Managed to remember? Your heart is a slave to your memories…or rather…it is a lost child, bound by the chains of memory." Oh yes, the voice belonged to Vexen, who else would it belong to?

Hmm. How many times have we heard "memory" in this whole castle?!

Anyway, there was a silence and Vexen asked the question, "Which sounded better?"

Sora didn't exactly answer before Vexen went to explaining. "This town…if from another side of your memory. Your heart knows this place."

Sora didn't understand, and I would explain what Vexen is talking about, but that'll have to wait.

"The other side of my heart?"

"You don't understand? It would seem that the wielder of the Key to Hearts is utterly indifferent towards his own heart." Vexen then pointed at Sora, shouting, "I knew Marluxia overestimated you! You are nothing more than a marionette, manipulated by your memories of Naminé!"

"No one's manipulating me!" Sora objected. "What's wrong with trying to save a friend?!"

"Fool of a boy. You are being manipulated even now." Vexen told him. "A pure and simple mind is a dangerous thing. It is time you learned that there are two sides to everything. Both you and my Riku should…"

Vexen was cut off by Sora. "Your Riku? You're so full of it! So you're the one who changed Riku! What did you do to him?" Sora asked rather angrily.

"It is truly pathetic…to think that you're putting so much effort into finding Naminé, when she's…" Vexen started to say…

Until a Chakra went through him and the culprit was Axel. "GAH?!"

Yes, Axel just went in and assassinated Vexen out of the blue. Oh, and Penelope was standing right there, sweating in fear that Axel could potentially try to stab her (not that he would).

"Did I catch you at a bad time?" Axel asked them.

"AXEL?!" Sora asked in shock. Donald and Goofy were in fear (I mean, they just saw Axel come up and freaking KILL a guy, so I don't blame them.), holding each other…

Um…that just sounded pretty wrong, but still. They were though.

"Sorry, Marluxia's orders. We need you gone." Axel told the dying Vexen.

"Marluxia…? But…I have seniority over the lot of you…"

Despite he was near-death; Vexen still summoned his shield and was preparing to hit Axel with it as he yelled. "AND THAT… LITTLE WET-BEHIND-THE-EARS-!"

Before Axel cut Vexen apart with his Chakrams, he told him, "Sorry, but… No one uses seniority systems anymore."

SLASH!

Vexen began to fade away, with his final words being, "No…N-no…I don't want to… go yet…"

His shield made a thud when it dropped before he died. And Penelope was shaking.

Why?

Well, Axel just killed someone in front of her, and he nearly hit her with that final blow on Vexen.

BUT HE JUST KILLED SOMEONE IN FRONT OF FOUR PEOPLE (technically five).

Sora's eyes were big as he asked Axel, "You k-killed him…?! But he's one of you! How could you?!"

Axel was turning away as Sora shouted at him, "WHAT ARE YOU PEOPLE?!"

"Killed him…? Heh. It makes no difference if one of us disappears. We're nobodies."

"You…What are you going to do with Naminé?" He asked rather angrily.

Axel simply tossed Sora a card, which confused him. "What's this card?"

As Axel was about to leave, Sora found that the card had an image of Destiny Islands on it. "You wanted to figure things out for yourself, don't you? Mister Hero. But don't forget that in this place, you lose something for everything you gain…So you decided to follow me again, eh?"

"What?" Sora asked in confusion.

Axel was speaking to Penelope of course. "If you keep this up, you're gonna get your cover blown."

"So far, I haven't, Flame-head. Besides, you have been the only one who can see me in the shadows, which is quite a feat." Penelope replied.

"Penelope?! You're with them?" Sora asked, making somewhat of a misconception.

"Oh hell no! I'm f***ing James Bond in this castle! Or a ninja. Or something awesome like that." She answered.

"James Bond?" Sora asked, his head titled to the side a bit.

"You don't know who James Bond is? Have you played GoldenEye 007? Or have seen a James Bond movie?" She asked him.

"Fourth wall breaking, Penelope." The light spirit nagged her.

"Whatever. Anyway, Sora, I haven't been walking around, getting my memories messed up. I've been a spy, or a secret agent or whatever. Call me Guardian Penelope 013 or whatever!"

"Quit making James Bond references!" The light spirit yelled at her.

"What, for England, Navi?" Penelope replied. Axel face palmed before leaving and Penelope said, "Bye Sora. I have to go."

However, Penelope didn't hear Sora when he called after her to stay (since he was starting to miss Penelope since she wasn't accompanying him, and it was actually pretty fun to have her on the team.) as she vanished.

XxXxX

When Axel returned back to the upper floor, where Penelope went ninja mode again (but not for long), Marluxia congratulated Axel for assassinating Vexen.

Oh, and he was holding a rose while petals fluttered around him. WAY TO MAKE YOURSELF SERIOUS IN THIS MATTER, MARLUXIA. I applaud you.

"Well done, Axel. We had to make sure you had it in you to eliminate a fellow member of the organization." Marluxia told him. Axel had his Chakram behind his head as rose petals (or possibly cherry blossom petals), fluttered around him, which Axel was possibly annoyed by, but he wasn't showing it.

"You passed our test." Marluxia finished before Larxene joined in. "You can join the big leagues now."

"Big leagues?" Axel asked Larxene. Larxene waved her hand at him, rather annoyed when she rudely answered, "As if you don't know."

"Taking over the Organization will be like child's play for the three of us." Marluxia began, and he crushed his rose before continuing with, "And soon, Sora will be ours. Then we can say good-bye to this cramped castle."

Appearing in Naminé's white room, with rose petals falling behind him, Marluxia put a hand on Naminé's shoulder and told her, "And perhaps I will give you a bigger room."

"What about the others?" Larxene asked as Marluxia left.

"Leave them be, They can't do anything."

That left Axel, Larxene, Naminé and the hidden Penelope in the room. Naminé had this look of guilt.

"Cheer up, Naminé. Its almost time to meet the hero you've been pining for." Larxene told her.

The poor girl still looked sad. Penelope tried to feel sympathetic for her as she slipped down to the bottom floor.

At the bottom floor of the castle, it was rather quiet, and Zexion said, "Vexen is no more." That kind of made sense why it was quiet, now that I think about it.

"Its deplorable. We're all the same. We should be working together. But now that he's gone…that leaves more work for us." Zexion told Lexaeus.

When that was said, it gave Lexaeus the sliiiight idea he might have to do Vexen's jobs.

"At least now it's clear that Marluxia is trying to take over the organization. It's time for us to get serious. They'll be coming after us next."

"Oh my god…" Penelope said rather worriedly.

"PENELOPE!" The light spirit snapped at her.

"I feel bad for them! The higher-level team or Sora or Riku might murder them at some point!" Penelope yelled back at her.

After drinking a bit of tea, Zexion ordered, "Lexaeus."

Lexaeus was quiet, thinking, "I knew you'd make me do it."

"Go capture Riku. Don't disappoint me like Vexen did." Lexaeus summoned his axe sword before leaving.

When Penelope went to go check on Sora, she got yelling and covered her ears as she fell from the ceiling behind Sora, Donald and Goofy.

"You're saying I should just abandon Naminé?!" Sora yelled.

"That's not what I meant." Donald told him. "But don't you think its weird?"

"What?!" Sora asked rather rudely. Penelope cringed a bit at this before her eyes turned purple.

"That you and Riku have the same exact memory. And you saw what those guys did to each other. And you always get real touchy when it comes to Naminé." Donald pointed out.

This pissed Sora off, making him yell, "Whatever! Do what you want! Lay back, take a nap- I don't care! I'm going to find Naminé!"

As Sora was running off, making Donald and Goofy call after him.

However, he was hit by a Keyblade and he fell back, only to see Penelope. "That's it! I'm tired of you acting like a jackass. If I end up breaking a bone of yours or something or if I give you a game over, I don't care." She told Sora.

"Penelope? Where did you…NNGH!" Penelope was giving Sora no mercy.

"What? You have a weapon, don't you?" Penelope asked him rather mockingly.

"Why'd you just decide to attack me…nngh!" Penelope hit him with a Radiant Midnight spell.

"Come on, Sora. You're really just going to let me hurt you like this? Pathetic!" Penelope spat at him.

Sora began getting up. "I thought we were friends…Why are you attacking me?"

"Because you're being a complete jackass!" Penelope yelled at Sora before firing a Midnight spell, which Sora had to dodge roll in order to avoid.

At some point, Penelope stopped attacking, healed Sora and vanished, as she felt like there was no point in fighting someone who wasn't going to fight back, and she went up to the upper floors again as Sora searched for Naminé, and Penelope allowed herself to be seen, as Marluxia nor Larxene were in the room.

Penelope also just found out that Axel and Naminé just watched that whole ordeal there. Convenient.

"You're all he can think about." Axel told Naminé after she watched that whole thing. "You're the only one who can save him now. So, what's it gonna be?" He asked Naminé.

Naminé didn't answer. In fact she was rather worried about getting caught.

"I don't se Marluxia round, do you? There's no one here to stop you." Axel told Naminé. Relieved of her fear, Naminé got up and ran to meet Sora.

"Just make it count, or else it won't be fun." Axel said to Naminé, despite she wasn't in the room.

"Who are you talking to?" Penelope asked Axel.

"You should go keep an eye on Naminé and Sora. Just so you don't get caught." Axel advised her.

"Thank you, Flame-head." Penelope said before leaving.

"Right…wait, what did you just call me?" Axel asked. However, since Penelope was already gone, it was kind of too late.

With Naminé, she was thinking as she ran to find Sora. "I'm sorry, Sora. I was alone for so long…I just couldn't bear it anymore. That's why I…"

At the moment, Sora was rather upset with Donald and Goofy, and especially Penelope because she attacked him out of the blue.

But the good thing was that Jiminy was with him, right?

"Sora! You're just going to leave them behind?" Jiminy asked them.

"What am I supposed to do? Donald and Goofy are just being so pigheaded! …I mean…Its none of their business anyway. It's my problem, not theirs." Sora pointed out as he opened up the door with the card.

And he found himself in the place he started… Destiny Islands.

A/N: Sorry I didn't update yesterday. I didn't get much of a chance to go to my computer and work on this.

And my grandma was keeping me away from my computer in a way.

I also now found that I couldn't fit the rest of Sora's story into one chapter. That would make it take much longer than it needed to.

Anyway, I hope you guys liked this chapter.

Please review if you'd like, please don't flame, and please tell me how I can improve.

I will see you all in the next chapter.

Ciao!
