"Sora, we cannot continue to meet- not like this, nor any other way." Roxas shook his head in disproval at the youth that sat besides him. A dark haired boy with deep, blue eyes. Although his face had not lost all it's childish features, Roxas knew that those relaxed eyes had seen more then any child's ever would and they held secrets, dark secrets, for if they weren't so Roxas wouldn't be here now.
The two of them were sitting on a conveniently bent palm tree, large enough to hold at least three people, the sea splashed below their dangling feet. A soft breeze ruffled Roxas's sandy hair bringing with it the smell of salt. His eyes drifted across the eternally red sea before him, remembering a different time- a time of sea-salt ice-cream and a promise – a promise to visit a place just like this with two people that no longer existed.
Roxas shook his head, he couldn't focus on the past, not anymore. He had to deal with the present to try save the future. He moved his gaze back on the boy sitting to the left of him, who was still looking thoughtfully out at sea, a small smile playing on his lips.
"If you want to stop meeting just don't show up when I call." Laughed Sora, still looking out at the horizon.
"We are inside your heart, Sora. I've got no choice but to show up when you call." Roxas rolled his eyes at the boy, knowing the latter already knew this, "You should be focusing on your training, on getting the Mark of Mastery and not on such trivialities."
" 'Trivialities'? I wouldn't call looking for the Guardians of Light a 'triviality'" countered Sora lightly , his arms behind his head as he continued to look forward, as if seeing something Roxas couldn't. Until a few weeks ago Roxas was nothing but a mere memory but now he lived on this twilight bathed Destiny Islands within Sora's heart, constantly having arguments with the latter, trying ti dissuade him from his terrible plan.
"They are trivialities when they lead to THAT road." Roxas sternly continued, hoping that one of these days Sora might actually listen to what he was saying. "That road was for people like me, not you."
"But technically aren't you me?" asked Sora finally turning to face Roxas, his blue eyes drilling into his own. It was unnerving just how similar they were to his own. "But then again you're you and I'm me."
"Yes, yes we've discussed that already!" yelled Roxas in exasperation, it was near impossible to get anything though his thick skull, but he had to. He had to stop Sora from doing this.
"So I've got to do this Roxas! It's the only way to end this, once and for all." Sora smiled as he said this, which only made Roxas feel more irritated.
"Then find another way if you're so set on this! There has to be another way!" practically begged Roxas.
"No, it has to be her. The first person we've got to rescue has to be Aqua she's the only one who knows how to find Ventus and Terra, I'm sure of it." Sora's eyes drifted towards the horizon once again.
"But it means travelling into the Dark Realms., a place where a light filled heart like yours would never enter."
"Aqua did."
"And look how that turned out! She's been trapped in there for a decade. The worlds cannot afford to loose anther keyblade wielder to the darkness." but Roxas knew his words were falling on deaf ears for Sora was no longer listening, instead the latter asked,
"If the world is round why does it end at the horizon?"
"Wh-what?!" Roxas was momentarily taken aback by Sora's question, didn't he understand just how serious his plan was? "what are you talking about? It's just an illusion of the light , the world keeps on going even past the horizon."
Roxas tugged at the rope of his hood in frustration, couldn't Sora see the seriousness of his plan?
"But if that's the case what's the white light behind the horizon?"
"What?" Roxas turned to face the crimson sunset that covered the sea and sky in hues of reds and pink. His eyes focused on the red horizon but, as expected he saw nothing past it but Sora continued to look on intently . Roxas sighed, this was Sora's heart after all he was bound to see things he couldn't.
