you start to wake. your whole body felt hot, and you were sweating. you get up and walk into the kitchen, the sun was just barely coming up. you get some ice cubes from the freezer. you eat some and put others on your forehead. you find a thermometer and take your temperature. you find that you had a fever. you walk into the living room where Roxas was still sleeping on the couch. you sit down and start to shiver though your head felt warm. you keep your mouth closed so you don't breathe out the germs. you get up again and get more ice cubes. your nose was slightly stuffy and your throat hurt. "ugh" you moan out of fatigue. you walk a few steps holding your arms and stumble over something on the floor.

you turn and look down to see what it was. for a moment you couldn't see anything in the dark kitchen, but suddenly a pair of yellow eyes roll up and look at you. you take in a sharp breath out of shock. a heartless was looking up at you. you stand there for a moment. you should be able to control it, with darkness "shoo" you whisper nudging it with your foot. a small amount of darkness shoos the heartless into a portal but makes you feel weaker. you groan again grabbing your head in pain. more heartless come and stare at you. you are able to shoo them away but you lose even more power in doing so. you turn and look for something on the counter.

you find what your looking for. a small pad of paper and a pen. you put your face close to the paper. "no one risk anything, your lives are, to important, especially you Axel, it's what i want and I couldn't stand losing any of you" you write while hearing more heartless appear in portals behind you. you were half afraid that you wouldn't be able to stop the heartless, but half not because they weren't attacking, but why were they here? you turn and see the kitchen floor was no longer visible in the sea of heartless. "Roxas" you say quietly as your legs begin to give out. in your state of panic, despite the fact that you didn't want to, you were using your power to try to keep them back, and it was draining out all the energy you had worked up over your resting time quickly.

"Roxas" you slightly yell. you look beyond the heartless and see something in the corner. you gasp as you see Yurix standing there. he quickly dissapears into a portal as a heartless catches you off gaurd with an attack. you scream as you block with your arm and get a gash on it. all the heartless suddenly start to attack by jumping high in the air and burying you in themselves. you curl into a ball with your hands over you face until you begin to feel something in your chest. you panic more and brake free of their grip for a moment. in doing so you see Roxas and Sora run into the room.

you stare right into Roxas' eyes as the heartless behind you prepare their next attack. you walk towards the boys when something pierces through your chest. you try to take in a deep breath at the pain, but couldn't. heartless claw at your feet as you stand perfectly still. a white heart with black mist inside came from your chest. Roxas' and Sora's eyes were wide with shock. "lillux" Roxas says reaching forward for you. your eyes close as his hand goes through you, and black and gold dust like particles float through the air. "lillux" Roxas repeats loudly feeling through the particles quickly looking for someone that wasn't there anymore.

all of the heartless suddenly dissapear into portals as if they were called. Roxas drops to his knees staring blankly forward. Sora watches him not knowing what to say before noticing something on the counter...

you feel yourself float through the darkness, something, it feels brakes away from you. you open your eyes to see a girl floating in front of you. she opens her eyes slightly before they close again. your mind clouds over as she gets farther and farther away.

Roxas looks up from his face that was in his hands to see a heartless standing in front of him. anger appeared on his face as he took out his keyblades. "stupid heartless" he hissed going to swing at the heartless who had its arms over its head in fear. "Roxas" Sora says quickly pulling Roxas away from his attack "look" he says pointing to the heartless. it watched them with soft bright yellow eyes. it got up from its spot on the floor and walked up to Roxas. "huh?" he said watching its strange behavior. "it's" Sora said as Roxas kneeled down "lillux" he said embracing the heartless. a poof of golden dust made the heartless turn you back into your human form. your eyes were barely open as you hug him slightly. Roxas laid your limp body in his arms. "the...note" you whisper as darkness gets the best of you. and your body goes into a mode where you were not responsive, but alive.

(somewhere in hollow bastion)(-Lina's point of viewyours)

your eyes widen as you sit up and look around. you get up and stare blankly at your new surroundings. "wh-where am I?" you ask to the air. "hollow bastion" you hear a voice behind you say.
