3rd Persons POV

It has been nearly a month since they relocated to the mansion and everyone fell into their own routines. Namine was constantly working on Sora's memories and DiZ was constantly on the multi-screened computer in the middle underground room while Kit would do random things throughout the day. It was barely dawn and Kit was awake not that she wanted to be awake at this time of morning.

She was staring into a full length mirror at her own reflection with a slight scowl. Her large fox ears twitched as she ran her fingers over the seven onyx studs that pierced her ears along the outer edge. Her ears matched her silvery white hair which had a slight wavy to it with the ends striking her right behind her knees. Her yellow eyes were slightly narrowed which made her button nose crinkle as she pursed her slightly full lips.

Her stomach was smooth and taut with a silver broken heart bellybutton ring through her naval. She wasn't scowling at what she saw in the mirror, but at the object that was now lying on the floor between her feet. A small wooden brush sat on the floor and she hissed at it before picking it up and heading for her door.

Her door slammed against the wall as she flung it open and stomped down to Namine's room. The blonde in question had jumped when Kit's door hit the wall and was staring at her own door when the teen opened it. Kit opened Namine's door a little more gently as she crossed her arms and walked into the room using her heel to shut the door behind her. She sauntered over to Namine before she proceeded to offer the brush to Namine who giggled at this.

"Having problems with your hair I see." Namine giggled lightly as Kit's face darkened in color.

"Hush woman and help me….please." Kit snapped lightly as she plopped down onto the floor rather ungracefully; next to the blonde's chair.

"Want me to tie it back? It'll stay out of your way." Namine inquired thoughtfully knowing how the teen on her floor disliked the length of her hair.

"I don't care what you do to it." Kit told her blankly before a shiver ran down her back from the brush being raked through the hair between her ears.

Kit sat there for the next two hours while Namine brushed and braided her hair humming tunelessly. Namine ended up having to give her two braids due to how thick her hair was and they made Kit's head feel weird. Once Namine had the final ponytail holder in place she patted the top of Kit's head and gave her the brush back.

Kit took it from her and nodded her head in thanks as she left the blondes room and went back to her own. She tugged at the braids for a few minutes before she finally tugged the ponytail holders out and shifted to her fox form. She would have to apologize to Namine later for making her spending so much time on her hair and it not lasting more than ten minutes.

She scratched at her ears lightly before leaving her room once again leaving the door wide open. She went down the hall, down the stair case, through the foyer and into the library where the floor was missing. She walked down a set of metal steps and went through a metal door that opened on its own once it sensed she was there.

DiZ was exactly where she thought he'd be which was in the chair in front of the multi-screened computer inputting data. DiZ has been working on making a virtual replica of Twilight Town ever since he figured out that Sora had a nobody. Sora's nobody is the thirteenth member of Organization XII and his name is Roxas.

Kit didn't question the virtual town's purpose for she had no intellect when it came to computers or any sort of gadget for that matter. DiZ didn't pay her presence any attention until she jumped up on the arm of the computer chair and looked between him and the computer.

"I need you to go scout out the town. Make sure that there are no heartless or nobodies running around." DiZ instructed her which earned him a tilt of the head before she jumped down off of the chair arm and walked out of the room as quietly as she had entered.

Kit made her way out of the old mansion without so much as a sound and into the woods that separated it from the town. The woods were the darkest part of town and her guard was raised the whole way through until she exited through a hole in the wall. She trekked across the ground to the nearest building and then started going roof to roof.

She explored all of Twilight Town while sticking as closely as she could to the shadows. She didn't find a single trace of a heartless or nobody in her five hours of searching the town. Her favorite place in this town was the very top of the clock tower, but only because you could get a good view of the sunset.

She didn't go up there very often, but she loved the view and was currently walking the edge of the clock tower roof. She stayed there for a few minutes before leaving to return to the mansion. She got back to the mansion within six hours of her departure and upon slipping under the locked gate her nose picked up a new, but familiar scent.

She bristled as she slipped into the mansion silently and followed her nose to the library. She could smell DiZ, but she couldn't place this new scent even though it was faintly familiar. She jumped the stair case that led to the underground rooms and stood in front of the door only long enough for it to sense her presence before she moved to the side of the door; out of anyone on the other sides view.

The door opening caught DiZ and the new entities attention as it opened, but no one was standing in the door way. Kit peeked around the door frame only to see DiZ with his hands folded in his lap and someone in a black coat. She trotted into the room and sat down in front of this new person with all the hair along her back and neck still standing on end.

"Kit will be accompanying you on your missions from now on." DiZ informed the person in the black coat who flipped the hood back to glare slightly at DiZ.

"What can a fox do against nobodies and heartless?" the boy inquired as Kit sat there rather slack jawed at who was in front of her.

Riku, with his silver hair and teal eyes was standing in front of her glaring at DiZ as if he had said something offensive. In all honesty Kit was hoping she would get to see him again soon, but being assigned as his shadow was not what she had in mind.

"She is capable of a lot of thing Riku and even you need a shadow of sorts." DiZ interjected laughing slightly to himself as Riku glared at the ceiling.

"Kit, why don't you take Riku to his room?" she knew that was an order not a question and she tugged at the boys pants leg.

Riku shot another glare in DiZ's direction before giving into Kit's tugging and following her out of the room and up the stair case that led to the library. She led him through the foyer and up the stair case to the room she had been sleeping in. She already knew that she'd have to stay in her fox form until it was deemed necessary for her to change forms.

She hissed at the thought as she jumped up onto the window bed and pawed a pillow down into a comfortable position. Riku almost followed her example only after he shut the door he flopped down on the bed she had slept in the previous night. DiZ had given him the rest of the day to rest and recover and Riku was going to take advantage of it.

He got up off of the bed long enough to remove his shoes and strip of his long black coat and pull the covers back. Kit watched him get comfortable before she disregarded her pillow, jumped down off the window bed and walked over to the bed. She jumped up onto it before nudging her way into Riku's arms.

Riku scratched her between the ears lightly which only caused her to snuggle up closer to him and close her eyes. They were both asleep in a matter of minutes, neither of them knowing just what tomorrow was going to bring.
