"Was that Namine made of data?" The man in the black hood asked DiZ.

"No…Namine hijacked the data herself. Look what she's done now…She's totally beyond my control!" DiZ exclaimed, slamming his fist on the keypad next to him.

"Calm down." The man in black said, watching to make sure that DiZ's anger didn't grow.

"It doesn't matter. As long as Namine accomplishes her goal…we needn't worry about what befalls Roxas.

"And what about that girl? Why did those dusks attack her?"

DiZ closed his eyes and shook his head. "That is something I do not know. I do not know why she was attacked, or if she is the one who managed to hack in to the data town. But it does not matter. Just keep an eye on her."

*Static, Buzz, static, Bzzzt*

"It's up to me. Only the Keyblade master can open the secret door and change the world."

*Static, Bzzzt* "But I'm not gonna betray Sora, either."

"All for one and one for all!"

*Static* "My friends are my power!"

*Static, Bzzzt, static* "So, your heart one this battle."

*Bzzzt, Static, Bzzzt, buzz, flash, blip* "It is I, Ansem." *Static* "Lead me into everlasting darkness!"

*Static* "Sora?"

*Blip, buzz* "Forget it! There's no way you're taking Kairi's heart!"

*Flash, static, blip, Bzzzt, flash* "Kairi."

*Blip, static* "We may never meet again, but we'll never forget each other."

"No matter where we are, our hearts will bring us together again."

*Static* "Take this. It's my lucky charm. Be sure to bring it back to me."

"Don't worry. I will."

"Promise?"

*Static, Bzzzt* "Don't ever forget. Wherever you go, I'm always with you." *Flash*

The 4th Day~

Roxas's blue eyes shot open as he woke up, turning to look over at his door, sighing loudly when he saw no one there. He sat up and looked out his window. "Right….."Promise"….." He threw his hand in front of him, imagining that he had the Keyblade in his hand, before reaching back and scratching the back of his head. "What a mess…"

"Who're you gonna root for?"

"Both of them, silly."

"What about you, Kira?"

Kira looked over at Pence and smiled. "The both of them, of course. I'm here as moral support!"

"WHOOOO!" Everyone exclaimed as firecrackers popped in the sky.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Struggle-fiends of Twilight Town! It's time for Summer's most sizzling clash. That's right! Today is the day for the Struggle and title match! Who will be the one to break through the ranks and take on our champion, Setzer!" The announcer exclaimed over everyone's cheering.

"Seifer, y'know?" Rai yelled over everyone.

"And who will leave today as our new Struggle Champion!"

"HAYNER! ROXAS!" Kira, Olette, and Pence all exclaimed loudly.

"Setzeerrrrrrrrr!" A bunch of fan girls all squealed as the champion walked on stage in all his glory, the crowd chanting his name as he waved to them.

"Yes, the crowd is fired up, so you know what comes next: Lets…"

"STRUGGLE!"

Kira smiled at her friend Chad as he walked on stage, Kira running up with him, seeing as both were announcers. "Hey, now! I'm Chad!"

"And I'm Kira!"

"And it's time to introduce today's combatants! The four bad boys who struggled their way through the preliminaries! Regular finalist and head of the Twilight Disciplinary Committee: Seifer! Who's are next one, Kira?"

"Completely out of nowhere-who knew he'd make it so far THIS year? Vivi!"

"An underground favorite and local attitude problem: Hayner! It's his first trip to the finals!"

"And Struggler number 4, who happens to be my next door neighbor, and Chad's absolute favorite customer: Roxas!" Kira exclaimed excitedly.

"So-who will win this sweltering summer Struggle!" Chad exclaimed.

"Who will take home the grand prize?" Kira asked, both her and Chad gesturing to the side where the trophy was.

"The summa cum laude of Struggle- the Four Crystal Trophy! AND, a chance to take on our own defending champion, Setzer! It won't be long now, folks. I suggest our challengers go over the official Struggle Rules before we begin!"

Kira took that as her cue to go sit back down with Pence and Olette, the three of them all excited, their excitement only increasing when the round began, starting off with Hayner and Roxas. "YEAH! GO! GOGOGO! HAYNER! ROXAS! WHOOOO!" Kira exclaimed, jumping up and down, rooting for her two friends.

"Our first match of today's Struggle Tournament will be between Roxas and his best friend Hayner!"

With that announcement said, both boys got into stances, and the bell rang, signaling the beginning of the match. Before anyone knew it, the match was already over, Hayner on the ground, Roxas standing up.

"And the winner is Roxas!" Chad exclaimed, lifting the boys hand up in the air, everyone cheering. "Not even friendship will slow this kid down. And Hayner put up a great fight, too."

Roxas ran over to Hayner, who was still laying on his back.

"I lost. Awww, I can't believe it!" Hayner exclaimed, standing up and shaking his head. "I guess I taught you well."

"You didn't teach him diddlysquat!" Kira exclaimed, earning a glare from Hayner.

"I had a lot of fun fighting you." Roxas said, grinning happily, causing Hayner to grin back at him, only to have it disappear as he turned his back on him, crossing his arms across his chest.

"Yeah, well I didn't, wise guy."

"Hey, let's find a way to cheer you up."

"Nah, that's all right." Hayner exclaimed, making his way to sit with Kira, Pence, and Olette, when Seifer walked up, ready to go up against Vivi. "You in the rush to lose?"

As soon as the next match commenced, Kira cheered Vivi on as he went against Seifer.

"When did Vivi get so tough?" Hayner asked, Roxas and the others shrugging their shoulders in reply.

And before Kira could manage to get more than 3 cheers out, the match was over, and Seifer was on the ground, everyone gasping, and Chad stuttering in confusion. "I-I'm not sure what just happened…Um…but…the winner is Vivi! In a positively blistering comeback!"

After Seifer's loss to Vivi, Hayner was now in the third place, making him excited. Roxas stepped up onto the platform, smiling as he heard Kira tell everyone that he was going to be the new champion.

"And now, the match you've been waiting for: Roxas vs. Vivi!"

"Roxas, I believe in you! ROXAS! ROOOOXXAAAAS!" Kira exclaimed, causing Hayner, Pence, and Olette to laugh at her. Her enthusiasm was apparently enough, because Roxas was beating Vivi, and was about to throw in one final hit, when all the sudden, everything froze. "Huh?" Kira mumbled, confused and worried. She looked over at Roxas, giving him a questioning look. She then noticed that Vivi wasn't frozen either. Suddenly, he was consumed in light, and in his place, was a Dusk….more like Dusks, seeing as there were three around him. Kira gasped and got down on the ground hiding behind the platform.

"Again!" Roxas exclaimed, getting into a stance, the struggle bat changing into the Keyblade. "Again…" He ran at them and attacked, quickly getting rid of them.

Once they were gone, Kira peeked over the platform and slowly stood up, running over to Roxas as he panted heavily. "You ok?"

Roxas nodded, standing up straight and looking around, frowning as the audience remained frozen. The question was…why wasn't Kira amongst the ones frozen. Someone applauding caused both of them to turn around to see someone wearing a black coat and the hood up, clapping. Kira gasped quietly, making a run for it, while the stranger snapped his fingers and summoned five dusks, quietly sending them after her. "Roxas. All right. Fight fight fight." Roxas only stared at the stranger blankly as he moved forward. "You really don't remember? It's me. You know, Axel." Axel said, throwing his hood off and allowing his red spikes to pop up.

"Axel?" Roxas repeated, not recognizing the name.

"Talk about blank with a capital "B." Man oh man, even the Dusks aren't gonna crack this one. Then again, they're still busy with trying to catch you little friend who took off just a second ago." Axel said, summoning his Chakrams.

"Wait a sec, tell me what's going on!"

"This town is his creation, right? Which means we don't have time for a Q&A. You and her are both coming with me, conscious or not. Then you'll hear the story." Roxas stepped back, a worried look on his face, before he frowned angrily, and the barrier began to move. "Uh-oh.

Roxas sighed loudly, glaring at the Keyblade in his hand, "What's going ON?" Roxas exclaimed, throwing the Keyblade down at Axel's feet, only to have it appear back in his hands.

"Number 13. Roxas. The Keyblades chosen one."

"Okay, fine! You asked for it!"
