Welcome back!

Disclaimers: Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy and anything else is not mine.

The only thing I can take credit for is the OC's. If any appear this time around, that is.

Okay… the reason why this was uh, finished up so quickly is because… Christmas is coming! It's coming!

Joy to the world… my - okay, never mind on the carols.

Anyway, every year (so far) I've tried to make a Christmas special.

And so, poor little Namine's memory is going to be fixed extremely randomly so the special can go up!

Sorry Namie, but hey, at least you got your own arc, right?

After they had caught the nearly hysterical Namine, Axel and the others had managed to calm her down (kinda) and explain the whole situation to her.

"So we're… part of a multimillion franchise?" Namine demands in an astonished voice, staring at the others.

Demyx nods, looking mildly proud of himself for some reason.

"Okay… so who's the main character of the series?" Axel asks, pointing around the room at the various Organization members and Destiny Island inhabitants.

"Sora. He's the main character for most of the series except for 358/2 Days and Birth By Sleep." Namine recites dutifully, pointing over to Sora who was currently being bandaged up (and whimpering about it) by Kairi.

"Very good! Which is my game?" Roxas asks, pointing over to the DS to give her a hint.

"358/2 Days…" Namine says, staring at the blue DS in mild awe.

She had come to accept the truth; Namine was in fact, nothing more than a pixilated character in a GameBoy Advance video game.

This new knowledge of her being a fictional character had come suddenly via Riku and Haru/Haru's appearance of a logo of the franchise and the DS system now sitting on her bed.

The others had explained it to her but she was still a little confused.

Yet even though she was initially frightened, it didn't bother her much anymore after she had gotten used to the idea.

It was as if she had already known it but had forgotten it… it was very strange.

Namine sits up and nods to herself, already decided.

"I think I want to run away…" Namine mutters to herself but naturally, everyone was too busy bickering to notice her speaking.

"Look, I know she's messed up but Larxene could help?" Axel was saying in a reluctant voice.

"By what? Shocking Namine's brain into a pudding?" Roxas retorts sarcastically, rolling his eyes in amazement of his friend's stupidity.

"Demyx, get that stupid guitar out of my face before I BREAK IT!" Xion snarls as Demyx's sitar hits her in the head as he stands up.

"Say that again! I dare you; say that again, you little fake!" The normally happy go lucky Demyx sneers, looking as if he wanted to smack her.

"Are they usually like this?" Namine asks Sora who yelps as Kairi finishes tying the bandages.

"Not really… They're kinda stressed right now." Riku explains as he rapidly dodges a blast of fire from where Xion had been sitting.

"Can I go live with you guys for a while?" Namine begs Kairi, feeling like her head was about to explode from all the fighting.

"Sure! My dad's been wanting to meet you… he doesn't believe me when I tell him I have an "evil" twin." Kairi says with a smile, looking as if she wanted to laugh at that.

Namine smiles at her lame joke and gets up.

"So, we'll be kidnapping Namine now!" Sora calls out to the fighting group as they quietly usher Namine out of the room and towards the Gummi Ship launch.

No one even notices they left…. Until about five minutes later.

"Where's Namine?" Axel, Xion, Roxas and Demyx cry out in unison when they notice that a certain little blonde wasn't stopping their continuing arguments.

Destiny Islands

"Wow… it's pretty here." Namine murmurs in amazement when she steps off the Gummi Ship, looking around at the crystal clear waters and palm trees of the island.

"Well, yeeeeaaaaah." Sora says, looking proud as Namine walks up to a palm tree and runs a hand across the gnarled and scared bark of the plant.

The next thing that happened surprised everyone.

What Namine hadn't noticed was that this particular tree was in fact a coconut palm. And there was one thing that coconut palms were infamous for in the islands (or at least according to Sora and Riku) was the random ability to cause and cure amnesia.

Whack!

"NAMINE!" A trio of voices cry out in unison as the girl falls to the floor, the treacherous coconut that had fallen bouncing off of her forehead.

A few minutes and a couple Curaga spells later, the memory witch was sitting up and holding her aching head.

"Huh? Why am I on the Islands? What happened to Marluxia's birthday party?" She asks, looking completely dizzy and freaked out.

"She's… cured!" Sora says in amazement, staring at the slightly cracked coconut that was on the sand besides her.

"… Goddamn, if we could sell those things, we'd be rich!" Riku says as Namine groans and holds her head.

A second later, she's tackled by four very familiar people.

"YOU'RE ALIVE!" Xion shrieks as she hugs Namine's head tightly.

"Don't you EVER do that again!" Axel snaps, looking embarrassed as he shakes her shoulders.

"You… you scared us." Roxas sighs in relief as he quickly gets off of Namine with a bright red face.

"Yeah! That wasn't nice, Namine!" Demyx complains, lightly hitting Namine's forehead with his Sitar.

"Ow… I'm sorry, Demyx, Axel, Roxas, Xion… Did I worry you?" Namine asks in confusion, wondering what had happened in the last few days.

It seemed like a painful blur… and maybe it was best that it stayed like that.
