Holding Xion's hand tightly, Roxas narrowed his eyes, wanting to refuse once more. But she was determined to watch over Cloud ..and he couldn't stop her fire. "..All right ..but let us go with you, just to make sure you'll be safe." he offered, not expecting to be refused. He could at least make the portal, but what would protect her in the Corridors of Darkness?
"That was Kingdom Hearts you were looking at ..Vele ..your on the wrong side here. Once you get a heart, what then? What about all the lives they take? Children become Orphans, and nothing but pain comes from the selfish desire they have ..do you want a kid to grow up without a mother or father?" Riku questioned, not bothering with the hooded guy since he wasn't saying anything or attacking. Vele seemed like the only person he could convince, so it was worth trying to talk to her.
"...Aerith ..if he's willing to leave you without a goodbye, then he doesn't seem to appreciate you at all..and besides, its too dangerous ..they'll take your heart." Roxas warned, wanting to keep her out of harms way. OOC: Sora whenever I feel like it..meh..
Roxas nodded, finishing zipping up his cloak and heading outside again. He ignored the Organization members and instead had his attention on Aerith, who looked indeed sad. "Aerith ..are you ...okay?" he questioned, heading over to her. OOC: Sora next time..meh...not into him
"..Okay, from the top. The Organization take the hearts of people who have them, then the hearts go to Kingdom Hearts, and they try to complete it so that Kingdom Hearts can grant them hearts. Nobodies can't feel emotions, they only think they can ..haven't you ever seen that moon in the sky?" Riku questioned.
He's lucky, it could've been worse ..good thing it didn't prove to be fatal or damaging for a long period of time.
....Don't tell me... Riku thought about it carefully, but in the end he eased his stance, looking her directly in the eye. "It's a keyblade, a special weapon me and Sora have ..it frees hearts from the heartless, and it's especially effective against Nobodies. Now, do you have any idea what this group does? ..I'll tell you, they steal hearts from others so they can have their own. They end lives of people like me and you, just for their own selfish desires." he said this informatively, not wanting to be hostile. She wasn't so bad, but friendliness can be imitated.
"....No..I'm not...your with the Organization, aren't you?" Riku questioned, Way to the Dawn appearing in his right hand once more. He formed his stance once more, only preparing to defend himself once she knew of his purpose here. "Do you even know what they plan to do?"
At first, Riku just stared at her as if there was nothing wrong. But then, he narrowed his eyes at her. Someone so young.. in the Organization? He'd like to say they'd never take her, but then again, Roxas was around the age she was. "...Say that name..one more time." he requested, slowly turning around to face her completely.
Coming to a stop, Riku looked over his shoulder and spotted the girl doing some strange poses. Odd ..but humorous to say the least. " You wouldn't ..happen to be from the Land of Dragons, would you?" he questioned, as that was the only place he thought those moves would originate.
"Trust me, I'm not ..it's a miracle Sora hasn't lost his sanity ..but she can't be all bad, if she's his friend." Riku responded to Velexira as he passed her as well, making it a point to only stick with someone calm and collected for now. He didn't need anyone making unnecessary noise in the turf of the Organization. They were always listening.
....She's just too much like Sora was to talk with. No ones taking this seriously.. Riku thought, shutting his eyes and sighing. He let the keyblade fade from his hands and he balled it up, raising his thumb and bringing it over his shoulder. "Back there ..you can meet up with him if you want ..I'll be looking around." he said, opening his eyes again and bringing his arms tiredly at his sides, moving past Yuffie. Pfft..looking around for intelligent forms of life that is ..this isn't fun and games like it was on the island..
"...Uh..thank you, you don't look too bad yourself but...can you answer my question now? How did you get in here?" Riku asked once more. He didn't want to be rude, but this was just a mystery he wanted to figure out. Was the Organization bringing everyone that ever stood against them?
Please be more patient next time too ..I was working on a response -_-
!? ...She knows Sora? ..and her name doesn't have an X in it .. Riku thought, slowly pulling away from the wall and peeking over the corner of the wall, spotting Yuffie and Velexira, the one who appeared to be trying to keep out of sight.Since when did the Organization pull random people from their worlds? Tactics were changing. "Your close, 'Yuffie' ..I'm his friend, Riku.How did you get in here?" he questioned casually, wanting to know if they had got in here the same way he and the others did. Hearing someone in the distance, Riku looked over his shoulder and dismissed it.Probably just a nuisance like Zexion ..no worries for him.
Easing himself silently to the very edge of the wall between him and the unknown, excitement filled stranger, Riku willed his Way to the Dawn in his right hand, having it appear in a very silent manner. The flash still occurred, but this place was so bright you could hardly tell. It's a girl ..obviously. But it sounds like she's lost too.. an enemy wouldn't be lost in their own castle, unless they were completely hopeless. No, this girl had to be in a situation like he and his friends were. Not wanting to show himself just yet, Riku raised Way to the Dawn higher, bringing it across his chest. "Who's there? ..what's your name?" he questioned. If it has an X then it's a member ..
Riku's near your characters in 'Trapped' btw.
Okay..in Castle Oblivion ..Lexaeus ..Zexion ..and the rest ..Sora must've taken care of them. Riku thought to himself, thinking back to the members he previously fought and the ones Sora defeated. "Then we've got Saix ..and the Gambler ..Axel ..Xigbar ..and Xemnas ..biggest threats in the entire Organization ..great." he muttered, narrowing his eyes and looking over his shoulder. He couldn't even see Sora and Kairi anymore. ..Sora.. don't let anything happen to her.. Freezing and pressing his back up against a wall, Riku looked forward again, hearing sounds of chatter up ahead. Was it just his imagination?
Indeed, 16 xD just finished my sophomore year ..gotta attend summer school though, since I took a junior class and my teacher was a complete...
"Sora, keep it down!" Riku urged through gritted teeth, cocking his head towards the spiky haired friend who was treating this like it was a game. Sora was his best friend, but as for his mentality, he was still as carefree as ever. And Riku ..he had the creeping feeling that they weren't alone in this castle. He could smell darkness everywhere, except it was fresh ..mobile. But the Organization was defeated ..so how was this possible? And the worst part was ..he smelled even more than before. Turning his head forward and hoping Sora would stay with Kairi, not to mention quiet, he proceeded down the hallway on his own.Things weren't right here. _ With his mind spinning with thoughts of Castle Oblivion and his failure, Marluxia was barely able to pick up the sound of footsteps just ahead. It wasn't heavy, so it couldn't be someone like Lexaeus or Xigbar. ..no, he remembered these footsteps well. Larxene, on the move once more. As he came to the intersection of halls, he turned his hooded head toward her. She appeared as thoughtful as he was, and from the look of things she was a little annoyed. He couldn't blame her ..this castle was now a prison, and the cellmates they had were lowlifes who knew nothing of what they truly wanted.And Axel ..they had a score to settle, that much was certain. In order to appear friendly and not be mistaken as one of her most hated friendlies, he slipped his hands into his hood, lifting it and moving it back, revealing his face while magenta petals flew from the hood.It was no surprise that this happened each time, since he took great pride in his appearance. Pink hair or not, he was a handsome man, with a brilliant cause. His eyes falling upon the Nymph, Marluxia wondered just how well she was taking things. "Good evening, Larxene ..tell me ..what do you feel inside? " he wanted to know her thoughts on this entire situation. If it took cursing and kunai throwing, so be it. He just wanted to see the state of mind she was in. They hadn't talked much since being reborn, but he had seen her attempt to brutally murder Axel. He wasn't part of the group that was holding her back ..he merely watched from afar. He held the same hate that she had, only his approach would be different, depending on circumstances. That man had caused the failure of his plan. And if Larxene was still willing, they could leave and plan once more. The pieces were all in place ..all he had to do now was Wait Prepare, And Execute.
