Day 1
xxxxxxxxxxI entered the large, white, circular room, the thirteen towering chairs surrounding me. A cloaked figure stood, back and crossed arms facing me. His head turned at the sound of me clacking boots. He smiled softly and turned fully to face me as I stopped.
xxxxxxxxxx"Did anyone see you on your way here?" the silver haired man questioned.
xxxxxxxxxxI shook my head slightly. "No, Superior," I responded, my voice bland and emotionless. Like a robot.
xxxxxxxxxxHe nodded. "Good. You shall be unknown to all of the members of my fine Organization. If your are discovered by anyone, your excistance shall be no more. And if I let you live, you will only live as a mere Dusk. Is that understood, XIV?"
xxxxxxxxxx"Yes, Sir."
xxxxxxxxxxHe turned away again and waved in the air as he spoke. "Be off. Complete your first mission and report back to the castle as soon as you are finished. I am to find a member suitable to accompany you in the future." With that, he disappeared in a shroud of darkness, as did I.
xxxxxxxxxxMy first mission was to clear out all the Heartless in Twilight Town. Replace them all with Nobodies. I started in the woods in front of an old mansion. I summoned the red and silver Bond of Flame into my right hand and began to stroll through the woody area. Heartless constantly appeared, but I was able to defeat them fairly quickly and swiftly. They were no match for my skills with this weapon. This keyblade.
xxxxxxxxxxWhen I got into town, I almost broke down. This was the place I was born in. Raised in. Played in. Made friends in...
xxxxxxxxxxKilled in.
xxxxxxxxxxThe memories came to me, hitting me like a ton of flour. The keyblade fell to the ground as I fell to my knees, gripping my head. I groaned silently as it throbbed, it banged, it painfully killed me inside.
xxxxxxxxxxThe memory faded into my sight, even though my eyes were closed tightly. People were screaming everywhere. The little black creatures I was sent to destroy today were running amok. I saw from the eyes of a little red-haired girl the horror, the pain, and the fear in everyone. The Heartless were jumping on them, attacking them for the darkness in their hearts. The little girl looked up to her mother, her vision blurring from the tears forming. The older woman picked her up and ran inside, locking the door behind her.
xxxxxxxxxxThen it all faded away. Sound. Sight. Touch. All of it.
xxxxxxxxxxReality returned to my senses, and now I ran around town, killing off Heartless with great force. They raided this town. My town. They cause chaos. They were going to pay for what they did.
xxxxxxxxxxWhen my job was done, I used a dark portal to return back to the castle. I appeared in my room. My little, dull, room. All that it could hold was me, a small cot, and a closet full of cloaks. I sighed and removed the one I was currently wearing and threw on a long nightgown. It was late and my mission was complete. Today was short. Today was rough.
xxxxxxxxxxNow all I have to do is go through it many more times. An inumerable number of times.
xxxxxxxxxxFor my life as a Nobody was just beginning.
xxxxxxxxxxMy Nobody life as Number XIV: Alexi, The Secret Servant.
