It's almost as if she's seen this happen before.

Okay, so I had to analyze the situation. Since Roxas is dreaming, his plan is out. Since Blaise is dead set on staying together, Axel's is out. Alex's in doomed to fail. That leaves mine.

Axel looked to me, "Well, captain, what's the plan?"

I thought a moment. I had to think of a strong version of my plan. Before it was just a thought, but now it really has to work. If not, then it’s another thing gone wrong because of me.

The door was pushed open again, I’m guessing another introduction. In the doorway stood a young man, he couldn’t be older than Axel. He was actually pretty attractive… Anyway, he seemed kind of…scared.

“I was ordered to introduce myself; I am number VI, Zexion.” He looked to Roxas and sighed, “Is he dreaming?” He asked.

Axel shook his head, “No, but he was. Twilight Town. Send someone as soon as possible if you want this goddamn plan to work.” He said, glaring at the boy.

He nodded and looked to the rest of us. He shook his head before closing the door again. Calmly. I liked that, the slamming was giving me a headache.

I nodded, “Alright, looks like my plan is in go.” Okay, so now that they go and get this girl, we’ll have two no-things, and four pure heart things, that’s six bodies. Blaise is injured so I won’t expect him to fight, so that’s five able-bodies…

“Was it just me,” Alex said staring at the door, “Or was that guy totally hot?”

We all stared at her, again, confused. She was really good at that.

“We’re kind of building an army; I don’t think this is an appropriate time for that, Alex.” Axel said glaring.

She shrugged, “Just saying…”

“Is it too soon to try to leave after this Tetra girl arrives?” I asked Axel, who seemed to know things about this place. He also seemed to be the sanest out of this bunch. Or, he’s not unconscious or uneducated in the ways of ‘Nobody” like Blaise and Roxas.

He nodded, “It seems as good of time as ever.” Roxas’s eyes fluttered open and he slowly sat up, “You okay?”

“Y-yeah…I’ll be fine…” He rubbed his forehead, “What happened? How long was I out?”

Alex smiled and leaned down to the blonde, “Not nearly as long as before. Only, like, 5 minutes. Sexy Zexy came and introduced himself. Oh, and you’re dreaming about some chick in Twilight Village,” I saw Blaise bite his lip, “They’re on their way now.”

I’m not sure if Roxas got all of that, I’m pretty sure he got a little hung up on ‘Sexy Zexy’. “Who’s ‘Zexy’?” He asked shakily.

Alex rolled her eyes, “Zexion,” she said it with a kind of ‘duh’ voice hinting.

Sexy Zexy?

Roxas looked to me with those big, sad, blue eyes and asked the question that all smart people should be asking themselves right about now, “How’re we going to pull this off?”

I smiled, “Well, if you’re going to dream, dream big.”

Chapter Fourteen: Dear Diary, entry 1

Some date that I can’t remember…

It’s been three weeks since I’ve gotten myself this journal and I finally feel obligated to write in it. I’m not going to tell anyone about it. Not even Riku. He has enough problems as it is, anyway.

Riku was really angry at us for agreeing to go along with Maleficent’s plan. I understand, though. Maleficent doesn’t share too many pleasant memories with Riku.

It seems like I’m always off to rescue somebody, or look for somebody. I swear I’ve put all of my friends in trouble at least a dozen times. I wasn’t really close to Mog, but she was nice, I felt like I didn’t have to fear the future with her around. She was like a comfort object to me.

I feel really bad for Kairi right now. I hope she misses me as much as I miss her. How many times have I left her alone on that island? She probably hates me now… And who can blame her? I’ve been a lousy friend.

Chapter Fifteen: Bare Necessities

Tetra wandered through Twilight Town without any real direction. School was a week away from being out for the summer and all of her friends had gone to the beach. She, personally, didn’t like the beach that much. Sure, it’s fun and all, but this time of year the crowds would be insane. Nope, she would much rather explore the ghost town of Twilight.

Now, when Roxas spoke about her, he had said she was unprotected, but in all truth, she was far from an easy target. Tetra knew how to protect herself. She was a beautiful girl, she was young, she was flirtatious, vulnerable, and she had to keep lustful sinners away. So, naturally, she had her father teach her how to kick a**. And she was very, very good at it.

First they sent Xigbar to retrieve her. Things didn’t go so well.

“Hey there, little lady.” He said, smirking, leaning against a brick wall.

Tetra saw another slimy *****. She took a step back, “G-Good day, sir.” Her eyes scanned the area, not a soul. She started to hurry away. Home, the sandlot, the beach, anywhere with people.

“Hey! Where’re you goin’? You gotta come with me.” He said taking two long strides before being able to grab her arm.

She twisted her arm from his grip and hooked her foot around his leg. Quickly, she pulled her leg back, causing Xigbar to fall foreword onto his face. “I don’t have to go anywhere but home, sir.” She spat back. “Next time I will not hesitate to call the police.”

She stormed off to her house where she would enjoy the rest of her Sunday with peanut butter cookies and a glass of milk with the blinds drawn and doors double bolted.

Next to try to retrieve Tetra was Larxene. She would have a more brutal way of getting her, but it worked with Blaise. She had one failed attempt and one successful one, if she were to get Tetra, then she would be good in superior’s book again.

“Hey little miss, you’re coming with me.” She spat at Tetra. “Whether you want to or not!” Suddenly knives were flashing and Tetra was bleeding.

She quickly kicked Larxene in the chest causing her to step back clenching her stomach. This provided Tetra with an opportunity to flee. “What is with people lately?” She mumbled dressing her wounds on her arm and face, once she was back in the safety of her home.


She heard a knock at the door and her pulse started to rush. She locked the deadbolt and peered through the peephole. Her fears were confirmed, standing on the porch was a very angry blonde in a black coat.

“Open up!” Larxene called impatiently.

Tetra stood with her back against the wall, “Leave now or I’ll call the police!” She warned grabbing her phone and fingering the numbers.

Larxene smirked, “Pu-lease.” She kicked the door a few times then abandoned it to scope out the rest of the house. Tetra’s heart was pounding fast in her ears as she dialed the numbers.

“Little miss-“ Larxene sang.

“Hello!? Police?”

“Let me in!”

“Help! Somebody is trying to break-“

“I’m going to break something!”

“Into my house! She’s insane!”

Down a hallway in the far reaches of Tetra’s house, a large explosion boomed. The air was heavy with dust, drywall and electricity.

Tetra screamed and dropped her phone. She turned and reached for the door-which was locked. Larxene emerged from the dust cloud, a smirk on her face. She advanced as Tetra fumbled with the locks. Much to Larxene’s demise, Tetra escaped out of her house. She had been too slow.

Tetra ran towards the sandlot, where she knew a struggle match was taking place. She ran right into Hayner, who was just about to loose to Siefer. The cheering turned to confused murmurs. “Oh my god, Hayner! Someone! There’s a woman after me! I think she’s trying to kill me!” She cried. Not a soul doubted her. Her face was still bloody and she was covered in dust.

Tetra’s parents were out of town, so she called them saying that she was going to stay at her friend, Olette’s, house. She was frightened, but she didn’t tell Olette’s parents.

“I’m really afraid, it seems like everyone is after me lately…” Tetra mumbled into her knees. Olette placed a hand on her friends.

“Thing’s will look up, I’m sure. The police will handle those creeps.” She assured.

Tetra’s mind was far from ease and she did not sleep that night.

Xemnas assessed the situation. It was not obvious that Tetra was not going to be an easy target. Something about their approach wasn’t right. They needed someone that was unintimidating, then, maybe she’d come without a fight. She’d come on her own free will. They would need to disguise whoever would be set on this mission. The black coat would be a dead giveaway.

“Are you serious? Maaan… The blonde whined when he saw the objective of his mission. “Isn’t this a job for, like, Xaldin?”

Saix showed no pity for the boy,” Xaldin has his orders and you have yours. Depart when you are ready.”

Demyx sighed and changed his clothing. Simple black jeans and a black t-shirt. Would this be enough of a disguise? Hastily, he headed out.

Tetra was out in the sandlot with Siefer’s gang, she figured they would provide the best protection. She hadn’t had any trouble all day, and it was already the late afternoon. She was confident that nothing would happen this day.

Then a young man walked out into the sandlot. He had sandy blonde hair, wandering eyes, and he appeared to be looking for someone. He looked entirely harmless; he was just a teenage guy. Tetra approached him. “You looking for something?” She asked.

This must be her…. “Y-Yeah, uh, are you Tetra?” he asked. She nodded, “Oh, uh, cool.” Crap, what do I do now?

“Did you want to ask me something?” She continued

Demyx ran a hand through his hair, “Well, there’s this, uh, place, that I wanted you to come with me to…” Am I doing this right? Is this what ‘subtle’ is?

Tetra giggled, “You’re kinda funny. I don’t even know your name.”

“Oh, it’s Demyx.”

She smiled, “Okay, Demyx, where is this place?”

He took her hand and led her to the back alley, “Its right over here. But close your eyes, I want to surprise you.” She did and he placed her right on top of the dark corridor. I’m sorry, Tetra…

Chapter Fifteen: Follow Through.

The two days with our little group was really weird. After the first day, Axel was taken back out. Roxas was upset about that.

The rest of the weirdos had introduced themselves. There was a very, very angry blue haired guy with a scar. He was Saix, but we were only to refer to him as VII. There was a blonde guy called Demyx that Alex thought was really hot. A British guy was next. He had platinum blonde hair and a bunch of piercings and facial hair. Next was a guy with pink, yeah, pink hair. He was really weird and monotone. His name was Marluxia.

“This organization is filled with a bunch of hot guys, “Alex commented leaning against a black wall staring at her nails. That girl was really good at confusing us.
