I could feel the darkness play across my body as I jumped threw the portal. I was not ready for the sudden stop that the guy did, slamming into his back I fell onto the cold dark floor. Lying there for a moment I saw him slowly turn around to look at me. Standing to my feet quickly a small chuckle came from under his cloak. Lifting his head graceful he moved his head to the side and the hood fell back. Pale pink hair, that defied gravity, covered his head, Grey eyes popped out in contrast with his pale features. Standing up straight, to his 6-foot height, I noticed his broad shoulders stood out more beneath his cloak.
It came back once more a dream, no a memory from the past. To a girl, younger then me, her brown hair had a splash of blue in it. Her left gloved hand wrapped around the railing, as she looked out over Twilight town on top of the clock tower. To her left a man with red hair stood next to her laughing at her about something. Her right held a young man with blonde hair, looking away from them in deep thought about something that seemed very important.
The scene changed and you could see young kids as they ran across the warm san, behind them the setting sun cast an eerie glow around them. Faces distorted a dark haired kid held a play sword in his grasp and began to charge at the other red haired child. Not too far away two young girls lay in the decreasing warm sand. Backs to the young pink haired boy as he was shown filling water into a bucket, quickly making his way to the unsuspecting girls.
A young man with blonde hair, in a mullet style, grabbed the bucket from the kid’s hand looking down at him in a disapproving matter. The child grumbling about something proceeded to walk over to a man with long corn-rolls, as the blonde laughed at him walking away over to the brown/blue haired child
.
"Where’s the fun in this? If all you are going to do is have flash backs… Nyx.” The voice broke my trance like state and I looked up to the familiar man eyes.
“Who are you?”
“Come on. Don’t you remember girl?” His Grey eyes seemed to dance in this black nothingness. I glanced around trying to get my barrens on where I was. “Don’t bother, we are neither in your world or mine. This place is… safe.”
“Safe… Safe from what?” I demanded. For some reason, I didn’t know, I did not feel the need to run away from him. Probably the same reason I jumped into a portal that I knew nothing about where it was leading. Careless yes, but I had to know why this man was so d@m# familiar.
“From the—others, the other nobodies. Nyx…”
“No! Who are you!? Why are so familiar!” I screamed out to the man, I needed to know. Something was tearing me up from the inside, not knowing who he was as well as the girl.
“The past comes back to haunt us all,” his voice was softer now then before as he stated that. “Only in time will we truly know what happened then (in the past). For now we must know only the facts, for that is what will keep us alive. Remembering memories from the past and dwelling on them will get us killed. Remember that well Nyx. Everyone changes some for the better, some…” Trailing off, he glanced down at me and I could see him holding a smile back. “Well some just change.”
His mood changed rapidly, casting aside they nice guy attitude. “You can’t hesitate in battle, no matter what your gut says. We have no heart, no empathy. I don’t know why you keep on thinking you do Nyx! You always have acted like this even as a child,” Drawing out his Gwan Dao (Like a spear. Is a Chinese weapon.) “You can’t think about a fight. I know you have the strength to win. You use to love to spar and never held back! If you don’t start fighting you will die!” Jumping high into the air he held his spear with two hands out in front of him. Dodging out of the way just in time to see a small hole in the floor where I just was. I understood what he said for the most part, he was from my past I knew that much and he wanted me to think of him as the enemy, which yes he was… but…
“Draw Your Sword Nyx!” He charged at me once more slashing the air, I quickly dodged his attacks as he kept on coming. Disappearing, he quickly appeared from behind. I couldn’t move fast enough to get out of the way as his spear made contact with my arm, but going just deep enough to draw blood not to cut it off. Jumping back he looked at me and started yelling once more, “NYX! D@mn It! Attack Me!” Rushing at me again his spear was out ready to run me threw.
Everything happened so fast after that, he drew closer and closer I put my hands up in front of me, making a barrier. Then out of no where he fell to the ground. I watched as his spear slid across the floor stopping at my feet. Looking back up I saw another nobody behind the fallen man.
All I could see was blonde hair sticking out of his hood, and an evil smile came across his face. His cheery voice echoed around the portal, though there was nothing around for it to echo off of. “Nyx! How is everyone over there at the Oblivion? Triskix still a pyromaniac, order-controlling freak? Riiight… you guys don’t remember do you? Well then…” His voice changed completely when he looked over at Marlex and kneeled down to talk with him. Instead of the happy gay voice he had just a minute ago, it became poison to the ears. It was so deep I couldn’t hear it, and so pernicious that I couldn’t help but to flinch at the tone of his words.
“My dear,” his voice was back to the sweet tone. “Nyx. Sorry you had to come here but someone needs to know, and to tell everyone, that ‘we’ are back. In due time everyone from the past will remember us, and when that happens they will have to decide, whom they shall follow. I knew you would follow Marlex here,” gesturing over to the man from before, that was now on his feet holding a wound on his stomach.
“Lexian, Triskix and ReXi would not give us a time of day to talk, they would just fight. Which is what we hope to achieve from everyone someday, can’t have any weaklings now can we!” Shutting his bright blue eyes as he smiled warmly. ‘Those eyes,’ I couldn’t help but to remember those blue eyes from long ago. “Well we should take you back to your pack! Unless you would like to see just who…” turning to the side I saw a portal opened behind him. “Is still alive after the later members died? We would love to have you… and Lexian, Triskix, and ReXi back again.”
Slowly he rounded behind me talking slowly, “Just like the old times, hu. With Demyx, Marluxia, Namine, Roxas.” I knew want was next, and I want to hear his name. Yet a part of me never wanted to hear his name flow through someone else lips ever again. He came to a stop in front of me, pulling back my hair, he leaned close to my ear I heard it, “and Saix.” His name rolled of his tongue like venom, piercing something inside of me, freezing my body in place, and he, the snake to devour the remains whole. “We are in the process of bringing them back don’t you know, dear.” Letting my hair brush back down to cover my ear, I could feel his fingernail cut into the skin on my high cheekbone blood seeped out. Then in an instant he was gone, disappeared into the open portal behind him. Marlex stood there and watched as my legs couldn't hold my body up any more, and I feel to my knees. "Saix?!"
