Sora
My shadowy counterpart laughed.
"It is hard to find people in such a crowd," he said.
I was surprised that no Heartless had stabbed me or killed me yet.
"Oh, that? They're on orders to only let me kill you," Anti-Sora said, reading my thoughts.
"Right."
"Anyway, you ready?" the other me asked.
"Fine. Just to let you know, I'm gonna kick your ass this time."
I rushed at him, bringing my Keyblade down as hard as I could. He jumped, and landed a few feet ahead. My Keyblade struck the ground, leaving large cracks.
"Ah, ah, ah," he said.
I rushed at him again, and again, the same thing happened.
"You could never kill me. Every time, I exposed your weakness."
Then he was holding a wrist. I looked at the body, and it was Kairi.
Roxas
Oathkeeper and Oblivion nearly did all my work. I cut through row after row of Gigas Shadows. I stopped when I heard a scream. It was Namine's. I ran through, yelling her name. I found her on the floor, her perfect white dress cloaked in blood.
"Namine? NAMINE!" I yelled, holding her in my arms.
A/N Play "Roxas's Theme Piano" now.
"Roxas..." she said quietly.
"No... You're not dying on me, are you?" I asked, the tears beginning to form in my eyes.
"I-I'm sorry... This is my fault..." she whispered, cringing at her wound.
"No... it's mine. I told Sora about the accident..." I said, feeling the tears drop on the ground.
"You did?" she said, giggling with her blue eyes staring into mine.
"Y-You're going to be okay, alright?" I said.
"That would be nice... I just... wanted... to say... I..." she fell limp.
I began crying. I could only look at Namine's lifeless body. A light blinded me, and the Namine was gone. I felt something... someone... in my head.
She is not dead, it said.
"Then where is she!?" I yelled to the sky.
She is safe with me, Roxas Nobody Strife, the voice said.
"You..." I said, remembering that fateful day in the alley.
A/N Play "Roxas's Theme" now.
I was merely eight when I met him. I was playing catch with Sora, and the ball bounced into an alleyway. I ran to get it. I picked it up, and the place got darker.
"Who are you?" a voice asked.
I didn't answer. I picked up the ball, looking around nervously. A person appeared before me. He looked around fifteen.
"I'll ask again: Who are you?" he said, drawing a Keyblade.
I gulped, my hands trembling. "R-Roxas St-Strife."
He lowered the blade. "You are a Nobody."
"A what?"
"A Nobody. One born when someone loses their heart to the Heartless. You know how you were born," he said, looking at me with bright blue eyes.
"St-Stop calling me Nobody! I am someone! I always will be!" I shouted at him, taking steps back.
"Do not deny your Birth by Sleep, Roxas. We both know someone stabbed a sleeping Sora as a baby, and you were born out of that. The only reason you're even here is because of one man," the person said.
I fell to my knees, the memory returning.
"What do you want with me...?" I asked, staring at the dark floor.
"I need your help. When you and Sora enter Keyblade High School, things will... change. You must stick to your Nobody friend, Namine. She will explain when you meet her."
He began fading. I dashed towards him.
"Wait! I don't even know your name!" I shouted, afraid he couldn't here me.
"My name: Ventus." And on that note, he faded, and the sky returned to normal.
I heard footsteps behind me.
"There you are, Roxas! Hey, you found the ball!" Sora said, dragging me back to our playing spot.
WAAH! I was actually crying typing Namine's death scene!
