"I wanted to see you…in order… to kill you…"
With that, he pulls Oblivion out from Sora in a fast swing, causing blood to splash everywhere.
二人の約束
The Promise Between the Two of Us
Chapter 19:
Painful Decision
In the dungeon cell"
Kairi looks out through the cell bar as she thinks back about the previous day.
Flashback
Kairi leans against the wall as Pluto lies beside her. She pats the dog before hearing footsteps heading towards her. She hurries to the bar to see Saix walking pass her cell with a blond-haired boy in his arms. She is shock to see some sever wounds on the boy's back, as she watches Saix moves to the next cell beside hers. She can hear the sound of chains and the locking of the cell aftermaths. Saix smirks at her as he past by her and heads out.
After Saix is gone, she hears groaning from the boy's cell. "Are you alright?"
"Where...am I...? Wait...this voice...is that you, Kairi?"
"Y..Yes...But how did you know my name?"
"I'm Roxas. I heard a lot about you from Sora."
"Sora?! Is he alright?"
There is a pause before Roxas continues. "Should be...I was captured here before knowing what had happened to him. Ouch..."
"You are hurt badly...But why did they capture you too?"
"For some plans against Sora maybe...Humph...Bastards..."
Kairi leans against the bars. "You know, I didn't know why but...you give a very nostalgic feeling...the feeling like..."
"Like Sora?" She hears chuckles from Roxas. "Yeah...like Sora..." There is silence for a while as Kairi starts to get worried. "Roxas?" No response came from the boy except some snoring, causing Kairi to giggle. She is about to fell asleep when she heard voices coming from Roxas's cell. The voice of a girl.
"Roxas."
"Namine?"
Kairi continues to listen to the conversation. "It's been a while."
"Yeah…What are you doing here?"
"Xemnas kept me here. I heard that they caught you, so I came here to see."
Roxas chuckles. "Quite a bad state huh?" He winces again at the pain.
"Have you met Sora?"
"I did…I'm always inside his mind. Until…"
"Don't give up hope, Roxas! You will be with him one day, believe in yourself and Sora."
"Yeah, I know."
Kairi starts to get confuse. What had happened between Sora and Roxas. It is then she sees Xemnas and Saix appears in front of Roxas's cell.
"Well, well…Long time no see, Roxas."
"Xemnas…"
Saix suddenly vanishes and Kairi can hear grasping from Namine. She notices that Xemnas had also disappear from where he stood.
"Say…how about you join back to us?"
"You wish, Xemnas. What do you want with me?!"
"You are a great tool for us. You are the spark that starts Sora's anger after all."
"You…! Don't you dare do anything to Sora!"
"I told you. Sora is important to us, we won't hurt him. What are you planning to do, Xemnas?"
"Hmm…take good care of him for me, Saix. You know what I mean."
"Of course."
"Well then, I shall see you next time, Roxas."
"You ask for it, Roxas."
Roxas's shouting echoes through the dungeon as Kairi starts to panic. The voice dies down as Saix reappears along the corridor and looks towards Kairi, who is glaring at him. "What have you done with him?"
Saix just smirks and walks off. Kairi quickly leans towards the bars. "Roxas! Roxas, are you alright?"
Silence.
Flashback Ends
The rest of the day she had been try to call out to the blond, but no reply comes from him. Until earlier today…
Flashback
The sound of chains wake Kairi up from her sleep as she rushes to the bar to see Saix walking down the corridor, with Roxas along with him. "Roxas!"
To her shock, Roxas is acting like he is in a trance or something. His eyes were in dull, lifeless dark blue, he looks like a walking dead.
"What have you done with him?!"
He smirks and ignores her, as they left the dungeon.
Flashback End
'Roxas, I hope he's okay…'
"Over here!"
Kairi turns around to see Namine standing in a dark portal with her hand reaching out to her. "You are…Namine?"
"Yes, please come with me, you must get out of here." Kairi hesitates at the hand. "Believe in yourself. Hurry!"
With that, Kairi grabs her hand.
Back at Memory's Skyscraper
Felling to his knees, Sora looks from his wound to Roxas, who is smirking down at him. "Ro…xas…? Why…?"
Swing the Oblivion to clear the blood, Roxas kneels on one knee as he holds Sora's chin up. "Why? Because Kingdom Hearts is finally complete, thanks to you. But they feel that you are a treat to them, so they asked me to eliminate you. How does it feel?" Roxas moves the hand to the wound. "To be killed by the person you love. How about…I give you one last kiss?"
Roxas is leaning towards Sora when the brunette suddenly attacks him with his keyblade, but Roxas manages to dodge the assault with a back flip. Sora glares at him as he pants, "You…are not…Roxas…"
Roxas laughs out hard as he points Oblivion directly at Sora. "You won't admit it, is it? That's too bad…" Oath Keeper appears in his under hand.
"He..al…" Sora uses curaga to stop the bleeding temporarily; he notices that he is no longer at the Memory's Skyscraper but standing on top of a large round platform with his picture on it.
"Where are you looking at?"
To his shock, Roxas is already in front of him and planning to strike. Using all his strength, Sora brings up his keyblade to block the attack. Their blades clash as Roxas pushes harder, while smirking at the brunette. "Humph. Not bad, even after taking that attack. But how long can you bear I wonder?"
Roxas leaps back, floating in midair as large light spears circle around him. With a swing of his keyblades, the light spears swamp down towards Sora. Sora manages to dodge a few, but earning some cuts on the legs and arms. "Thundaga!!" Thunder magic strikes the remaining spears that are coming towards him, as smokes from the impact covers his vision. Before he knows it, a flash of white pierces from the smoke and strikes Sora on his right thigh. Sora screams in agony as the smoke starts to fade off and Roxas appears from it. He pulls the Oath Keeper from Sora's thigh as the brunette fells to the ground, wincing in pain.
"That hurt, didn't it. Don't worry." Roxas raises his blade. "I'll end it quick for you!" Sora shuts his eyes as he waits for the impact.
'ROXAS!!'
Nothing happen.
Sora groans as he opens his eyes to see Oblivion a few inches from his neck. He looks towards Roxas who is holding back the hand that is grabbing onto the Oblivion. "Roxas?"
The blond lets out a cry as he drops the blade. He steps a few steps back and fells to his knees, clenching onto his head. "Stop controlling me, Xemnas!!! I won't let you!!"
Sora uses his keyblade as support and wobbles towards Roxas, until the blond stands up suddenly, stopping him. "No! Sora…Don't come any…closer…I don't wish to hurt you anymore!"
"Roxas…!"
Roxas smiles weakly at him as he groans in pain of his headache. "Sora…You…have to…strike me…"
Sora's eyes widen as he shakes his head. "No…No…I won't do it!"
"You must!! Before Xemnas takes over control of my body again! Please Sora…!!" Suddenly, Roxas's shoulder slumps for a while and back up again. "Humph…Foolish boy. Now, shall I continue where I have left off?"
"You bastard!!"
Oblivion appears back on Roxas's hand as he dashes towards Sora, who is still hesitating. Until he hears a voice.
"SORA! DO IT!!"
Sora lets out an agony cry as he dodges the upcoming blade, bringing up his own and thrusts it through Roxas's chest.
Back at the Memory's Skyscraper
Donald and Goofy wait anxiously after they defeated the Nobodies, that appear suddenly after Sora's disappearance.
"Gwarsh! Donald look!!"
They are shock when Sora and Roxas reappear in the middle of the place. Not only that, Roxas is leaning his chin on Sora's shoulder, while Sora has his hand on the handle of his blade that is going through the blond's chest.
"Ro…xas…?"
"You did..it…" Roxas coughs out blood as the blade disappears. Sora catches hold of his lover as he kneels down slowly, with Roxas's head resting against his arm. Sora tries to heal him but Roxas stops him. "No…Sora…Don't…"
Tears are drizzling down the brunette's cheek, mixing along with the rain. Sora places his hand over the wound on Roxas's chest, trying desperately to stop the blood flow. "No…no…no…Roxas…"
"It's…not your fault…This is the best…ending for both of us…"
Sora shakes his head, Roxas raises his hand and caresses the brunette's cheek. "There is always one thing…that I wish to tell you, Sora…" Sora meets his gaze as Roxas smiles at him. "Even without a heart…I have always love you…"
Time seems to slow down as Roxas's hand slips off from his cheek and hits the wet ground. The pair of identical sapphire eyes are now hidden behind the closed lids, as Roxas lies lifelessly in Sora's arms.
"No…no…please don't leave me…I haven't even tell you…my feelings yet…Please…wake up…"
It is then, Roxas's body starts to glow and vanishes into Sora. The brunette hugs himself as he weeps silently in the downpour.
