[ It's a clear, cold day when a girl comes walking out of the forest. She is slow and careful about her way, as if she's not quite sure what she's doing - which she isn't. She also has the unmistakable air of a person who is hopelessly lost and not entirely willing to admit it, and thus is soldiering on nonetheless.

She feels very confused. Very much like she's forgotten something very important, but she just can't remember what. And she's very tired of that feeling, too. Memories... and loss, and fear, and confusion. It all feels familiar and she wishes desperately it wasn't. She wanted to be done.

She'd died. She'd faded away in Roxas's arms, that was supposed to be the end! She was going back... why was she here? Had something gone wrong?

What had happened to Sora?

Xion finds her way, somehow or other, into the village. She is not wearing the typical New Feather garb - instead, she is carrying that dress over one arm, garbed instead in her normal Organization uniform, which she found beside her when she awoke. Along with ... one other thing. There was a ring on her finger. It was very pretty, but it certainly didn't belong to her. After all, how could it? She'd never seen it before in her life. It ends up in the pocket of her coat, largely forgotten. If this is all a trick of some kind, it's a really elaborate one.

Of course, in the village she finds people. So many people! More than she's sure she's ever seen before, and initially she shrinks from them and runs to hide. She peers around the corners of buildings and skulks along pathways, keeping her hood up when she must walk out in the open. But she's obviously pretty frightened and distressed when she's unable to tuck herself out of sight, jumping at small noises and then trying to pass it all off as if everything were fine. ]


... I don't understand. Roxas... Sora... what happened to you?

[ Such are the things she muses worriedly out loud to herself. Eventually, she just goes to sit by the river. Her hood remains up, reluctant still as she is to reveal her face, but she's looking over the journal. It reminds her a little of the one she used to keep at home... but there's writings from other people in it! So strange...

She'll finally pick up her pen, her curiosity getting the better of her cautiousness in the end. ]


Hello? Who's out there? This little book... it feels so familiar, but I don't remember why. I know I've never seen it before.

This world feels familiar, too. How can a place you've never been to feel familiar? I don't have any memories of this world at all. I wish I knew what was going on.

[ She crosses something out. ] I probably shouldn't write this like a journal entry... there are other people out there, right? People who can read this, too. Just like I can read what you say. It's so strange. I guess it must be magic.

[ There's a pause, then. She doesn't dare write her name, does she? What if the Organization is here? She pauses a long moment. Well... well, there is one thing she can try. She doesn't have to give her name... no one should know her, anyway... and even if they did... they shouldn't remember. It should be safe.... shouldn't it?

She puts down her pen, and hunts around on the journal page some more. She knew she saw a little picture earlier-- there! Xion manages to switch on the video function. At first her cowl hides her face in shadow, making her features somewhat inscrutable.

Then she transfers the journal to one hand and slowly, somewhat reluctantly, pulls her hood down. This is Xion, alright - bright, uncertain blue eyes and raven dark hair. But her hair is short, and her face still somewhat round and very young. She will very different from the accomplished young woman who normally goes by her name.

After a hesitant pause, she speaks up again. ]


I'm... I'm looking for someone. He's ... he's a boy with spiky brown hair. [ She makes a somewhat silly gesture over her own head with her free hand, indicating at the shape of his hair. ] And he, um... he always wears red. And he's got blue eyes, like mine...

[ She pauses for a second, swallowing a wince. Like mine...

Xion doesn't dare say his name out loud, for some reason. ]


I don't know if he'll be here, but... it can't hurt to try. If I'm going to start anywhere... I guess it should be there. But I really should go home...

[ She looks off to the side, concerned and a little sad. She can't think of anything else to say, so she just awkwardly presses the journal shut. ]

[ Oh, that question. ]

My name's Kohan. Riku... you might not know him, but... I'm his replica.

[He feels a little hurt, but he presses on.]

It's okay. It... it happens. [He knows he himself has been here several times in the past that he does not even remember.] My name's Aang. So you... just arrived here.

[He notices, and again it's that fear, that complusion to keep her from running on him like last time. So he takes a quick step forward and takes her hand. Gently squeezing it to let her know he doesn't want her to run, but, not to be afraid either.

He looks at her with sad look but he has to say something.]

You might not believe me...but I know you, and I really need to talk to you...okay?

[He's trying not to sound like he's begging but it's obvious.]

Yeah. For, uh...at least a couple of years. [ ... ] Though it could be that you won't remember it.

[ Man, she hopes that it isn't the case. If things went back to square one thanks to Xion being sent home and then back, she'd be sad enough for her own case, but rebuilding would be way easier for her than for, like, Luke. She's hoping it's like that time Xion turned 10 years older, only backward, but she's growing more pessimistic. ]

Well.... [ Ugh, that expression. Does she give an optimistic view to try to try to make her feel better? Or does she give her the realistic one? Augh. ] Sort of?

[ ......Or she can give the completely incompetant answer. She doesn't put her face in her hands this time, but her expression clearly displays that she wants to. Wow, she is sucking at explaining anything right now. The worry must be affecting her more than she thought. She didn't think she'd be this awkward. ]

It's a bit complicated. Usually, when people are gone for as little time as you were [ and were kidnapped by the Malnosso first BUT THAT CAN BE LEFT FOR LATER ] they eventually go back to the age they were before. And even people who get younger for good...sometimes they start to remember later.

I'm sorry. It must be so confusing for you to have to deal with everyone saying they know you already. But I'd be glad to answer any questions you have.

[ Thought... what?

Well, he let her know what he wanted her to know, anyway, so he lets his curiosity go for the moment. ]


Sure. Where are you? [ Wait, if she can't remember Luceti at all... ] Can you describe your surroundings?

Well, I can't really blame you. It's gotta be weird having a bunch of people recognize you when you feel like you've never met 'em before.

[He breathes out for a moment, thankfully she won't run away. But now, he has to explain things.]

I know...I know you were made from apart of me. I managed to find out.

[Better try and ease her into this rather than flat out say she told him.]


But, I want to let you know, that you deserve to be your own person. Just as much as me.

Uh... You remember what I said about memories being locked in your heart? It's probably part of that.

But I really have been looking for it, so...

[He's aware of how weird this sounds. But what else is he supposed to do? This is important.]

[Luke, too, is silent. And then he sets the journal aside, though he's still in view; he just can't look at the journal, at her picture, anymore. So, looking at the floor it is.]

Yeah. I'm sorry... I was going to tell you later, if we met up. You've probably got a bunch of other people saying they remember you, so...
