Thank you for reading, share with friends, review, all that Jazz!


Roxas stood in the doorway silently as his brother's excitement radiated off him. The class's eyes turned to them, as did the teacher's.

"Ah, new students, right." The teacher smiled an old smile. The woman at the front desk must've told him as we came up... Roxas thought, handing the man the papers that were requiered. "Thank you. Introduce yourselves."

Sora and Roxas turned to the class. "Hi, I'm Sora!"

Roxas raised a hand in greeting. "I'm Roxas."

"Ah, okay," The teacher said, pointing to a pair of empty seats in front of two red headed twins. "You can sit there. Go ahead."

Roxas and Sora walked silently to their seats, and stared at the teacher, waiting for him to presume whatever he was talking about.

Sora wasn't listening, but staring at the chalk board, thinking about Kairi and Riku. Roxas wasn't listening either, though. Which wasn't very normal. He stared out the window, remembering his days with the Organization. Would they find him? Would they take him back? Would they even remember him?

Did he want them to remember him?

Of course he did, they were his friends. Well, some of them, at least. Roxas mentally grimaced at the memories of Larxene's sharp tounge.

The bell rang earlier than Roxas and Sora expected. Sora and Roxas exited the room first, unusually quickly. They were just eager to get outta there.

Once in the lunchroom, Roxas and Sora stopped. They exchanged wary glances and walked into the courtyard. Sora was being chased by a bee, and Roxas was leaning back in the patio chair, watching in amusement.

The bee stopped chasing Sora and he plopped down next to Roxas. "Roxas! Can we go inside? That bee has it in for me!"

"No one has it in for you, Sora," Roxas sighed exasperatedly. He looked around, and saw someone coming toward them. Roxas's breath hitched, and Sora was oblivious. As the man passed, he murmured so low only Roxas could hear.

"Number XII."

Roxas watched the retreating back of Siax, right hand man in the Organization. Roxas turned back to Sora as he heard his name being called, as if from a distance.

"Roxas? Hey- Roxas? Roxas, you okay?" Sora looked worried, still not noticing the figure that had just passed.

"Fine. I'm fine, Sora. Just thinking about..." Roxas went through his mind quickly. What wouldn't Sora understand...? Well, there was a lot. "I was just thinking about Chemistry. You know, Lithium, Nitrogyn." Roxas hoped that would fool Sora- and it did. Sora cocked his head to one side, and shrugged.

"Okay." But Sora watched Roxas out of the corner of his eye. He was worried about Roxas, no doubt.

"Excuse me," A kind voice said from behind the twins. Sora jumped and spun, but Roxas turned slowly. Better to be cautious than to be careless.

Seven people stood before them. A small boy with blond hair and big, questioning brown eyes munched on a small piece of crembrule. The man who stood behind him had an impassive expression, his eyes were charcoal black, and his hair was the same. Roxas and Sora noticed the twins from before; the red headed ones with the yellowish green eyes. Another blond stood before them, as well. His eyes were a peculiar color- they were so blue, they looked almost like a light violet. Beside him stood a man who also had black eyes, and black hair, but he had slim glasses, and a disturbing aura. Apparently, he was the one who spoke, because he spoke again.

"I am Kyouya Ootori," He gestured to his group. "And we are the Host Club. We noticed you are new here, and decided to see how you were faring."

"We're doing just fine, thank you," Roxas stood abruptly. Sora looked up at him with confused eyes, but stood as well. "I believe my brother and I will be late if we stay any longer. Goodbye."

Roxas turned on his heel, and stalked away, not really caring if Sora didn't come. Roxas was so shaken up about Siax knowing his location; he didn't want to deal with anything at the moment. Sora quickly caught up with him, tugging Roxas's sleeve worridly.

"Roxas? What was that back there? Are you sure you're okay?"

Roxas nodded stiffly. Sora didn't buy it one bit.
