Nobodia

[Reno]

Roxas thanked her as she left, then hurried over to Axel, beginning to aid hus lover by organizing the people and getting them into straight lines and what not.

Sora blinked, glancing around at Riku, then shivered as the darkness overtook them. It always made his whole body go cold and numb, and the torturous seconds it took always left him a little dizzy.

He barely had time to step aside from the pink-dressed woman. "Riku you coul've warn - was that Aerith?!" The brunette burst out, turning his head, but the lady was already gone.

he could of sworn...

He glanced back around and then hurried after Riku. Once inside, he could see... a lot of people milling about, more then usual. he recognized them as Nobodia's inhabitants.

But most of all he saw... "Roxas! Axel!"

Roxas turned around at the sound of his name, and smiled seeing Sora... hopping towards him? he tilted his head, confused for a moment then a smirk appeared over his face recognizing the limp at last, he remembered his first time...

So his brother lost his virginity? With how modest and embaressed he had always been over these things the blonde expected it to take... well a lot longer.


Chip looked around the empty beach as well, then he huffed, crossing his hands. "Well thats just rude!" he squeaked out.

[Rikugurl]

Axel blinked as he heard his name too, looking up to see the other two. It seemed like they got his note. So they did leave Nobodia.... but why? He frowned as he stood and walked over to them, seeing Sora's hobble.

Don't tell me that that left to do the deed... Axel blinked and shook his head.

"Hey... thanks for coming...." he whispered, too tired to talk anymore. He looked at Sora and then at Riku.


Riku noticed the sleep-deprived pyro. "You should try and get some sleep. We'll need your help against the witch too..."


Dale nodded as he huffed too. "Yea! We have lives too!"

[Reno]

Sora nodded to Riku's comment frowning up at the red-head. "Yeah get some rest Axel, you don;t look too good."

Roxas trekked over, looking to be in about the same shape, but at least he had slept some. He looked at his lover, concenred, but nodded suddenly. "I agree with them we can handle this." he nodded towards Nobodia's inhabitants. He wanted his partner to get SOME sleep...

Chip sighed. "Wanna look for acorns?"

[Rikugurl]

Axel's eyes closed a bit and he almost tumbled over but he shook it off. "Y-yea..." He said as he slowly walked off and found a small cot that someone had been sitting on before and laid down.

Riku frown at the sight. The poor guy seemed exhausted. He looked at Roxas than all the people. "So... what are we doing with all your people?"

Dale blinked and started bouncing angrily. "IT'S AN ISLAND! THERE'S NO ACORNS HERE!!"

[Reno]

Roxas held a deep frown as he watched Axel leave, concerned deeply for his lover. he felt kind of... ok very guilty. he had after all... kinda slave-worked Axel the day before the attack...

He glanced towards Riku then. "Aerith came here and told us that Radiant Gardens is willing to take in our people..."

"So that was her..." Sora mumbled a bit sadly. he kinda wished he had time to say hi at least...

"So, we have to move them all there. just help me get them into the shuttles, a reasonable amount each can hold up to 57 people. we have 731 that we need to get there." Roxas said. "Try not to split families if you can help it."

The brunette nodded slowly, feeling a bit strangly. He;d never heard Roxas speak so... professionally before. "Right okay that;s easy enough."

"Once they're there the relief foundation and restoree commites will help us find shelter food and water." Roxas announced, before turning on his heels. "just try and keep everyone calm."

Chip scoffed, then jumped up and down, yelling back. "COCONUTS THEN!!!"

[Rikugurl]

Riku kept an eye on the redhead as he too started getting people in groups to get into the shuttles. What had made the man so tired? He shook it off and started getting some families into a bunch.

Aerith manged to get to the Garden quickly and towards the Research center. "Leon! Yuffie! We're going to be getting a lot of company!"

The chipmunk stopped and scratched his head. "Hmm, I've never had coconuts before."

[Reno]

Sora gave Axel one last glance before he bounded over to another group, full of bright smiles and optimistic words.

Roxas meanwhile took a quick detour over to the redhead. he looked down at him, taking in the lean and exhasted form, the dark rings the sour expression. he leant down, giving the redhead a light kiss on the cheek and whispered. "I'm sorry." before he turned to get back to his own work.

Out of the three, the people seemed to most like the young brunette. he was full of energy and cheerfulness that instantly comforted people. He made absolutely sure never to split a family. He even shared a few, quick, little stories with some of the children, entertaining them as he got everyone into the shuttles and settled. He told many crying kids to be brave, that everything would be alright.

Roxas was just too tired. He couldn;t deal with this in any light but wearyness. He offered few smiles and waved off little concerns. He really couldn;t think to deal with any of it.


"Exactly lets go find one!" Chip said, dashing towards a palm tree.

[Rikugurl]

Axel has fallen into a deep sleep. Nothing would wake him. After having sex, being worked nonstop, getting scared half to death from the dragon, fighting heartless, saving his people, traveling through darkness, running and jumping everywhere, making sure Roxas and Xio were safe and comforting his lover.... all in the matter of 2 days....

Riku tried to keep people's hopes going by telling them how beautiful the Garden was and that they would do their best to get rid of the dragon as soon as possible.

Xio watched everything from afar. It soon walked over to his master and nudged him a bit but got no response. It whimpered a bit but laid next to him like a loyal pet.

[Reno]

It would take them a few hours. Getting 731 people organized and into one place was not easy. it was a lot of running around town gathering the rest and making sure they made it onto a shuttle. and after eacxh shuttle was filled Roxas made sure to do a head count and inventory it.

But the worst was yet to come. A hysterical mother nearly yanked Roxas' arm off when she puleld him aside all tears and shouts. "My babies! my twins! they're lost in the city!"

"What?" Roxas asked, frowning. He knew exactly who she meant. the only twins that lived in all of Nobodia, the two were famous for casuing trouble and getting... lost.

"They were right here besides me! just a moment ago and then and then!" she burst into tears. "Please find them!"

"Calm down." Roxas said soothingly. "I'll leave room on this shuttle for you and your children. i assure you me and my friends will find them just pelase... calm down. They might just be in this crowd..."

However, by the time they had gotten everyone loaded into the shuttles and accounted for...

"729." Roxas said dismally, walking besides Sora and Riku, who both looked exuasted at a job well done. "The twins are still missing." he cursed his luck but he was deeply concerned for the two. Who knew where they had ended up by now. "We need to split up and find them..."

Sora frowned but nodded at the sudden new mission, even if he was still walking with a limp. Two kids out all alone in a town like this...? "Who are we looking for exactly?"

"I dentical Twin boys, about 10 years old." Roxas said. "black hair green eyes." he paused, thinking. "you'll probably recognize them instantly if you see them."

[Rikugurl]

Riku watched the last shuttle go off towards the Garden. He blinked as he saw a woman on the side, crying. Was she left behind...? What was when they got the news. He frowned and sighed, taking in a deep breath. This was great....

He blinked thought a bit and looked at the lion-like animal next to Axel. He pointed to the creature and tilted his head. "Could that thing help by getting the boy's scent?"

[Reno]

Roxas blinked at the interesting thought. He had no idea...

"Yeah thats a great idea!" Sora said, grinning at the silver-haired man. Riku could be so brillant at times!

"well i... i suppose we could try." Roxas said, then whistled. "Xio come here." He hoped to god it worked. The twins were sometimes more trouble then they were worth...

funny how they were his favorite kids out of the whole town.

[Rikugurl]

Riku smiled as he looked at Sora. "You should of thought of that seeing that Pluto did the same."

The Moomba blinked as it lifted its head as it heard its name. It yipped and ran over, sitting down at Roxas's feet.

Riku walked over to the woman and asked if she had any items from the boys that would have their scent on it.

[Reno]

Sora blinked tilting his head. Well that was a good point. he had a good excuse, he was in pain!

Roxas smiled, leaning down to pet Xio when he came. "Good Moomba."

She sniffled, looking up at the tall boy, wiping her eyes with a handcherchief. "An... item, oh yes!" the woman said, taking out a baseball cap from her bag. "this is Jaime's."

[Rikugurl]

Riku looked at the hat and nodded, taking it and walking to the fire creature. He knelt down and pressed the cap to the Moomba's nose.
"We're looking for this boy... go find him~" He asked the Moomba.

Xio blinked as he picked up the boys scent then looked at Roxas for reinsurance. When he was given an nod, he yipped and started to smell the ground, running off and following the scent.

[Reno]

"I don;t belioebe it." Roxas said after a moment as the Moomba got ahead of them. "He's actually doing it."

"It;s kinda cute!" Sora said, the first to hurry after the creature, hobble and all. "Riku you suuuure we can;t have one?"

Roxas smiled, pausing to look around quickly before he hurried after Sora.

The brunette however, had a very simple though - maybe because he was still a child himself. Where would two 10 year old boys go when looking for adventure? why the same place he and riku would have if they had grown up here! the same Roxas had when fake memories were implanted into his head.

The forest... and the mansion. It was scary and dark and adventurous!
