A Second Awakening [OPEN]

[Naminé]

It was just like before. The beginning of her existence, when Sora purged himself of Kairi's heart, the place she'd first woken up into. Not much was different, aside from having memories of what she'd done, and knowledge of the world around her. It was the same white walls, same emptiness, same unoccupied space: undoubtedly Castle Oblivion. Namine had gotten up a few moments ago, already having walked a good distance from her original spot, down one of the many identical hallways of the castle. All the while, her thoughts lingered on every complication her appearance meant. Or what it could mean. 

"I can't judge whether my being here is good or bad. If something's wrong with Kairi...or Sora...or the world, and I appeared as a result..." She let her sentence trail off, leaving out the obviously false assumption it was leading to. Her singularly couldn't have caused this to happen. Her arrival didn't mean evil or darkness had prevailed in some way. Really...a Nobody like her was too insignificant to cause such a thing. Just one being, her individual self, was most likely only one sign, or piece, that played into whatever situation it turned out was up. And that situation she intended to find out as soon as possible. 

On another note, a maybe good difference between then and now would be the appearance, or lack of therefor, of Organzation XIII. Granted the blonde Nobody had covered such little ground on the lookout for maybe two or three beings - or even all thirteen would be a difficult thing to locate technically - but not one Nobody had confronted her yet, which meant either she hasn't been spotted (unlikely with their hawk like watch coupled with that strange orb that could show every inch of the castle) or she really was all alone. Better safe than sorry when it involved them, however. 

Marluxia had controlled the upper levels of the building, and consequently, those were the floors Namine felt most comfortable with. It was as good a start as any. While using the Corridors of Darkness would have been faster, and more efficient in a way, the blonde couldn't risk popping into the middle of a meeting, or just the presence of a single member. A fight was unavoidable in time, but right now, her main goal would be to collect information, get whatever knowledge they had and pass it on to Sora, whether he already knew or not. If anything, Namine was determined to be of help this time, and shed her former deeds as a hinderance. 

"Once I've gotten all I can, I can use the Corridors of Darkness to go to Destiny Islands. Hopefully...Sora will be there." 

Her soft footsteps still making faint echoes, Namine made sure not to lose focus or get caught off guard. Never again would she become another's captive, and never again would she hurt anyone in any way, shape, or form. 

Now the real question was whether there was anyone else in this place besides her, and if the blonde was lucky enough to cross paths. And...if they were friend or foe.

[Marluxia]

And she spoke words that would melt in your hands

And she spoke words of wisdom

"I can't say its what you know, but its what you known the whole time.."


"How dare you show your face here again, Namine.." Marluxia stood upon a small throne formed of stone and the symbol of the organization etched on the top of the stone structure. He smiled soon enough, [b"I'm sure you were worried about me, none the less my sweet.."[/b] He slowly approached Namine and summoned a flower into his right hand and touched her shoulder softly,"Oh how I've missed you my dear Namine. The darkness was so gloomy without you.." He took the red flower and presented it upon her hair, "There now you look as beautiful as the morning sky.."

Taking a step back he moved back towards his throne and sat down folding his arms and watching Namine he said only a few words before breaking into silence, "So what do I have the pleasure of seeing you once more Namine..you wouldn't just waltz in here and think you could just waltz back out now did you..?" A cunning smirk displaced across his face as he looked towards Namine, "Your not leaving are you..I need a friend to be with in these trying time..Namine..don't you remember all those good times we've had?

The blonde Nobody clenched her teeth and her eyes narrowed as she spotted who else had turned out to be in this castle. "Marluxia."

[/color] Namine didn't even try to keep out the defiance and contempt in her voice. If she had to choose, he would be the last person she'd want to meet again, especially in circumstances like this. "I thought Sora took care of you years ago. What kind of trick did you pull to come back?" This Nobody was supposed to be gone, banished to the darkness, long, long ago; in this very castle even! Why was he back? How did he manage to reform? And...what does his presence mean? 

Earlier, Namine wondered whether her existence meant something bad had happened to Kairi. Or...to the world in general. Although she'd dismissed it a first, the appearance of Marluxia brought all of her fears back. Was the rest of the Organization XIII reborn? Were the worlds in danger...again? That wasn't right! Sora had worked so hard to save everyone, and now he had to do it all over again! Why couldn't peace have settled for just a bit longer...? 

The pink haired nobody's words did naught but enrage Namine more. "I only worry what your presence means. You're better off lost in darkness, where you can't hurt anyone anymore. And...and you won't! Because I won't be doing what you say ever again."[/color] 

As he walked towards her, Namine braced herself for some kind of attack. She didn't have much to defend herself...or rather anything to to defend herself, but leaving through a Corridor of Darkness would be just as good. Yet even as she slowly began to back away, to give herself enough room to escape, Namine paused for just a moment out of sheer un-expectancy. Long enough for him...to put a flower in her hair. Her anger faltered for a moment, however returned by the time words left the man's mouth. 

Swatting the flower out of her hair, Namine ignored his jiving comment. If anything, she wanted Marluxia gone, for him to be extinguished to mere darkness without a form again. But she didn't have the power to do that. Not yet. For now...she would just have to stick it out until the prime moment to escape came. Until then...get information. That's about the only use Marluxia would have that was actually good. 

"I'm not here at all for you, Marluxia. I'm not your puppet to use anymore, and I'll help Sora this time, to defeat whatever brought you back. Any times I had with you were anything but good, so I'll be waiting for the moment you go back to being absolutely nothing but mere darkness again."[/b] Namine had full intentions to leave. But static so outright would dash all hopes of getting just a bit of information Marluxia might have. Until it was safe to jump through a portal and go, Namine would just have to stick it out and make her former tormentor useful for whatever he was worth.

[OOC- Still no template but I'll get one when I get a computer again. Also, Namine will be looking for a way or chance to leave the entire thread, so just let me know sometime how you want things to go with that in mind] [/blockquote][/blockquote]

[Marluxia]

And she spoke words that would melt in your hands

And she spoke words of wisdom

"I can't say its what you know, but its what you known the whole time.."


Marluxia grew with anger as she mentioned sora as some defiant hero that can challenge the eons, "Sora...Sora won't save you this time Namine and you know this Axel can't interfere with my plans and neither can Sora."

He looked down as he pondered upon his last defeat from Sora and only anger grew from this single thought, " I am more powerful than what I once was Namine and I don't need you anymore to rewrite his memories."

"I truly have no idea what brought you back to the Castle Oblivion ,but the only thing I will tell you is you are not welcome here anymore until my plans have come into prosper."Marluxia walked towards the flower Namine threw to the floor and nodded his head side to side, "Kids today so rude.."as he picked up the flower he took a step forward and patted Namine on the head, "You nothing, but a insolent child Namine and no one cares about you..Sora only cares for Kairi and your nothing but a simple and fragile Nobody with the ability to rewrite abilities."

He held his hand back, ready to strike her, but merely shrugged his shoulders, "Hitting you won't change anything, but I will put this simple for you to understand Namine. Sora cannot save you this time neither can anyone.." Marluxia lifted his hand upwards and summoned a portal, "Leave now and never return your invitation has been revolted Namine and tell anyone of my return and you'll personally know how it feels to have your friends taken from you!

He gave a slick smirk, "Your nothing, but a nobody of Kairi a insignificant nobody thats nothing without Sora or Roxas"[/b]

Namine didn't think it would be this...easy. Berating her as nothing important, and pointing out things she...she already knew, things that were personal, that wasn't above the pink haired Nobody before her. Standing there, keeping herself as calm as she could, the blonde simply glared as he went on and on. He wanted a reaction, for her to lash out even, but at the very least, Namine wouldn't give him that satisfaction. And yet, just going through his verbal assault was all it took. He was...letting her go. His threat still hung in the air, however...the Nobody wasn't one to reveal things so casually. She'd keep this meeting a secret, but not for his benefit. The next time she saw someone important, like Sora, or Riku, or any of the former heroes, she'd share the small bit of knowledge she had. That Marluxia, and by assumption, the rest of the Organization, we're back, and there was more trouble all over again. 

But that was for the future. This was her chance, and she wasn't going to waste it being too skeptical. Not...completely, at least. Opening her own portal, she gave him one last glare. "You'll be gone again in time, Marluxia. I never intended on staying here in the first place, but don't think I won't return to see you destroyed. Just know that you aren't my biggest enemy. I'll leave on own."

[/color] 

And with that, she stepped through the portal and away from Castle Oblivion. Next...wherever she could go to find Sora, and help against whatever rising threat there may be.

[OOC- I...she would leave. So if you want to continue this thread, just let me know in the Cbox and I can make her stay, but yeah...like this should leave and the threads kinda over...][/blockquote]
