Okay, I'm in a good mood some I'll do this chapter today. So you get two chapters today kiddos!


Xeiria. Xeiria. Her name makes me feel sick for some odd reason. It sends a pang rip through my chest and makes me collapse on my knees.

"Oh my god!" She says bending down next to me. "Are you okay?"

I lifted my head weakly and looked into her eyes. They showed a mixture of concern and confusion, like she was feeling the same thing as me.

I quickly shook it off. "I'm fine. Just a little dizzy."

"Maybe we should take you home, where do you live?" Roxas asked, speaking up.

"I don't…I don't have a home," I confessed weakly. Xeiria tilted her head and looked back at Roxas, and still looking at him, she said to me, "Well, I could take you to my house…" I knew she was talking to me, so I only nodded.

"Come on Roxas," Xeiria told him. "Help me get her back,"

Roxas nodded and picked me up bridal style. From what I could tell that was wrong because Xeiria looked jealous or something. Whatever happened next I couldn't tell you, I had already passed out. When I woke up again I was laying on a bed covered with a black blanket. The whole room was dark, but there were glimmers of light coming in from the window. I lifted myself up onto my elbows and tied to get a better view of the room, but beyond the bed there was only darkness. No, there was a slit of light on the floor. I stood up and walked over to it. I was about to open the door when I heard light whimpers and pants coming from behind it. I opened it just a bit to see what was going on and I found Xeiria sitting up on the couch with her hands over her face and Roxas sitting next to her. His hands were placed comfortingly on her shoulders, his thumbs rubbing the pale skin there and he was whispering to her.

"You need to tell me what's wrong," he cooed. "Did Seifer hurt you when I wasn't there?"

Xeiria only shook her head and through broken cries she just whispered, "It's Airie…I feel like I know her and yet I know I don't and it's frustrating me. I feel like I'm forgetting something really important…"

"Well, she does look a lot like you," Roxas said. "Do you remember anything before you came to Twilight Town? Maybe she's your sister or something? I mean, it could happen."

She nodded. "I know it could happen, but…I'm not sure. I just need to sleep, I guess. It's been a hard day."

So she was crying over me? Why did she care about me? I know…it's because she's unstable.

I couldn't bare to see her like that. I quietly shut the door and walked back over to the bed and opened the window that was over it. The apartment was on the second floor, but it wasn't much of a drop.

I slid off the window sill and landed on my feet. It sent a jolt through me but I kept walking. Without the sunset Twilight Town was kinda scary, I must admit. I mean, you never knew who was going to come knock you out and do lord knows what to you. When I went to the part of town that had a lot of shops, there was a huge hole in a wall that divided the town and a forest. Curious, I walked through. I navigated my way through the forest until I reached a mansion. There was a lock on the door to it, and me being Airie, I started to climb the wall. It had tons of nooks in the sides of it, giving way it was very old. I landed over the wall and walked into the mansion. The hallway was dark, but one of the rooms at the end of it was a shining white light. I walked toward it. When I reached it I found a girl with long blonde hair and blue eyes sitting in a chair. She was wearing a white dress that reached her knees and she was drawing in a sketchpad. In front of her was a pod-like thing that was huge enough to fit a person. I walked over to her, but I didn't say a word. I watched her draw for a moment before she stopped and looked up at me. I smiled and tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. When she realized I wasn't going to hurt her she relaxed and smiled back.

"Hello," she said. "I suppose you're here to see Sora."

My eyes widened without warning. "How do you know about Sora? Do you know where he is?"

She chuckled. "Of course. I know you're looking for him, Airie."

I put my hands on my hips in annoyance. "How do you know my name?"

The girl closed the sketchpad and stood up. "I know all about you, from Sora. You see, my name is Namine. I was taken by Organization XIII and they made me rearrange Sora's memory while he was in Castle Oblivion, like you are now. But don't worry, your memories are fine, for the time being. I really didn't want to, but they made me erase you completely from it. I'm sorry Airie,"

I brought my fingers up to cover my mouth and let the tears roll down my face. "So…Sora won't remember me?"

She looked shocked, then waved her hands in front of her. "Oh, no! I going to fix it. Trust me, I'm going to make my mistakes better. He will remember you, and I'm going to make sure of it. I know he means a lot to you."

I calmed down a bit, still crying but calmer than what I was. "Good. But wait, you said my memories were fine, for now. What do you mean?"

She sighed. "Well, I took his memory apart in the first place, so I may have to take Sora out of your memory to figure out those memories and them into his. But you will remember him eventually, because I will put your memories back in."

How could I forget Sora? That was nearly impossible for anyone, even if you'd only said one thing to him in your whole life.

I swallowed. "Where is Sora now?"

Namine pointed to the pod shaped thing in the middle of the room. "He can't hear you though. And he can't wake up yet."

I walked over slowly, trying to keep myself from collapsing to my knees and sobbing. I placed a hand on the pod and looked up at it, pressing my lips together to keep from screaming. I could feel Sora sleep, I could feel his warmth.

I smiled up at it. "Sora…you get well soon. I wanna see you make a full recovery. Please, you just get some rest." I let my hand fall limply to my side and I turned around to face Namine again. "How long should this take?"

She sighed. "I'm not truthfully sure yet. It could take months, it could takes years."

I nodded. "Thank you Namine," it was barely a whisper, but she was able to hear it. I walked toward the door but stopped between the light and the darkness. I turned back to Sora and Namine once more. "Goodbye, Sora."

I walked out of the mansion, tears rolling down my face. When I came out of the mansion I found myself in Castle Oblivion again. Who I found there surprised me.

"Riku!" I called happily. I ran over and hugged him, letting the rest of my tears pour out onto his chest. He put one of his hands on my back and one of them on the back of my head.

"Hey kid," he said sadly. "Y'here about Sora?"

I nodded. "Just now…"

"I'm sorry," Riku told me. "It's gunna be a hard year, right?"

"Yeah…" I said.

He suddenly pulled away. "Look, Airie, we sent Kairi back to Destiny Islands. And that's where I want you to go too. You're going through a hard time, so I want you to go back home."

"But Riku-" I started, but then I thought, 'For Sora's sake,' and I stopped. "Okay, I'll go home. But promise me that you'll keep Namine and Sora safe, okay?"

Riku stared down at me. "Okay. I'll see you soon Airie," He opened a dark corridor and I walked through. I came back on Destiny Islands, right next to the Paopu Tree. I pulled myself up onto it and looked out at the ocean. I shut my eyes and started to sing,

'If I had to, I would put myself right beside you

So let me ask

Would you like that? Would you like that?

And I don't mind that you say this love is the last time,

So let me ask,

Do you like that? Do you like that?

Something's getting in the way

Something's just about to break

I will try to find my place

In the Diary of Jane.'


I thought the song 'The Diary of Jane' was the perfect song for Sora and Airie for some reason. But I don't own 'The Diary of Jane' by Breaking Benjamin. Look it up and if you listen to the whole song you'll understand. I'm still not done with this story! I just have a twist planned… :D
