"What are you talking about?" I can feel Roxas's hand wanting to reach out to me, but stopping in the air.

I can't take the way they are looking at me. They are judging me for what I did. Now that they know the truth about me, what are they going to do? Obviously, they aren't going to want me around anymore. But where will I go?

"I did it. I'm the one who opened the door. I let Xemnas, or Ansem, or Xehanort's Heartless, or whatever he called himself out. It was me. I released the darkness on Destiny Island. It's because of me that all of this has happened." I cover my face with my hand, not being able to bear them being able to see me and to mask the tears that are rolling down my cheeks.

"How?" Roxas's hand lightly touches my shoulder. "You couldn't have."

"I did."

"No. You didn't, Dexlin." Riku takes a couple steps forward. "I did. I'm the one who opened the door on Destiny Island."

I look at him through my tears. "I remember opening the door. I did it." I see flashes of me on the island. It was a long time ago. In the secret cave. The small wooden door. My hand turning the knob. The screeching of the wood that had never been moved.

"Those are my memories that you're seeing. You didn't even exist when I opened the door. You're just seeing me doing it and think it's you."

"No."

"Try to focus through all the memories. Separate those that are Riku's. You have memories of things that you never did." Sora's giving me a look that I didn't expect to see. Sympathy.

"The same thing happened when Sora and I rejoined for the first time. I started seeing things that I never did. You get used to it, Dex."

"But, I thought…"

"And just because Riku opened the door to Destiny Island doesn't it mean he's to blame for everything. This started long before we got the Keyblades." Kairi's hand touches my arm again.

I'm so confused. That weird dream I had. The sound that I kept hearing. It wasn't really my memory. But I can see everything so clearly.

"Then…"

"Don't blame yourself for this, Dexlin. Don't feel guilty for something that I did. You just have to remember that some of those memories in your head are mine."

"So I did this for nothing."

"Not nothing. You proved to yourself that you could try. That's something." Namine smiles.

"But I lost. Almost died. And Xemnas got away."

"We'll find him again. We always do." Sora has that determined look on his face again. He believes what he is saying.

And then I realize something. "I think I might be able to get us to wherever he is."

"How?"

"I learned something while fighting Xemnas." I focus all of my attention on the air behind us. It takes a lot more concentration than before, but I see a dark spot starting to form. And then it spreads into the shape of a dark portal."

"You can control the corridors of darkness?" Riku is shocked.

"I found that out while I was fighting Xemnas. I just assumed because I was a Nobody like him, I could control them too."

"Namine and I can't control them anymore. We haven't been able to since we rejoined with Kairi and Sora."

"Then why can I still control them? I never knew I could before."

"There are a lot of things that we need answers to." Sora holds up his Keyblade. "But we can wait for those answers. The longer that Xemnas is on his own, the more trouble we're in. If this corridor will lead us to him, we should take it. Figure out everything else later."

We all hold up our Keyblades, even me. I didn't think I would actually be going with them. And a few minutes ago, I very nearly didn't. But things are different. I'm not to blame like I thought I was. I'm not the bad guy.

The real enemy waits for us on the other side of that portal.

We start running.

A/N: I know this chapter is short but I had to seperate it from the next chapter because too many things were going on. More to come soon. And as always. Reviews appreciated.
