Author's Note: another chapter down, ? more to go...

I don't anticipate on this story getting too long, probably a few more chapters.

I actually got some downtime today so I finished writing this chapter earlier than I thought I would, so that's cool. XD

Remember: I don't own Kingdom Hearts...

anyways, enough babbling...Please Enjoy! :D

Chapter 2: Monster (Namine's POV)

I watch from afar as you maneuver your way through the castle. On every floor you lose more and more of your precious memories. I carefully replace those recollections with some that I have ingeniously made. You have no idea what awaits you, but you push forth regardless. Bravery runs rampant through your veins. I know that the Organization doesn't stand a chance against you, their plans are foolish. I'm stupid for obeying their orders but I have no choice. Unlike you, I'm weak. Even if I had the choice, I don't think I would have stopped any of this from happening. I'm drawn to you for reasons I don't understand and I can't walk away. I'm luring you right into their trap and it sickens me. But, the closer you get to me the more warmth I feel.

I am terrible for coming between you and Kairi. I just had to know what it was like to be loved. It is my fault that you are forgetting your reminiscences. It is my fault that you are here when you could be there with her. I am a monster for doing these horrible things to you. I want you to be afraid of me; I want you to be safe from my interference. I don't even deserve to exist, I should be punished for my wrongful acts. But, at this very moment you are trying to save me because you falsely believe that I am the one you adore. I am ashamed and strangely satisfied. Truthfully, you shouldn't even bother coming to my rescue because I'm not who you think I am and I never will be. The sad part is that I would do it all over again if I was given the opportunity. Marluxia calls me a witch, I think he's right.

I'm a witch, a monster, a nobody. I'm a moron for thinking that a boy as wonderful as you would ever have anything to do with a girl like me. I am taking advantage of you and letting you down. I am sadistic and evil. I am surely not fit to be part of your world. Our paths should never have crossed but I forced it and made a mess of everything. Now we are intermingled and it is all falling apart before my eyes. I never wanted it to come to this, I feel pathetic.

Yet, I can't help but think that this is somehow right. There is a special spark between us. I can't deny the butterflies in my stomache or the throbbing sensation that originates deep within my chest, where my heart would be- if I had one. There is a certain connection that runs deep and I want to put the pieces together. I have to know what this is, I can't let go, it is consuming my every thought. I will have to be a monster for a little bit longer, at least until I figure this out.

Thanks. For. Reading. :)
