Riku looked at the sleeping face of his best friend that was sleeping his chamber that Naminé put him in. He frowned, before looking at the blonde girl who was drawing in her notebook, her eyes transfixed on the paper. "Where is he now?" Riku asked, walking over and sitting on the chair next to her.

"He went back into Castle Oblivion with Axel," Naminé said softly, "He just met Hayner, Pence and Olette,"

"When can I take him back to Sora?" Riku asked fisting the table cover, Naminé put a hand on his fist,

"I know you're ready to bring Roxas here and force him back into Sora but he must do it in his own terms…because if he does it unwillingly then Sora's heart will break into two and Sora will never wake up…" Naminé said gently, Riku chewed on his lower lip and fisted his Organization XIII's uniform.

"Can at least talk to him? Make him want to return? I mean that girl Xion went back willingly once I talked to her," He muttered.

"That's quite true," Naminé said, "But Roxas is now learning how to make his own feelings…he longs for feelings, affection…acceptance, to the Organization he's just a tool to create Kingdom Hearts, if you rush into things like you did with Xion, Roxas would push you away,"

"Why?" Riku growled, looking at the girl who starting drawing a new picture,

"Roxas desires to make his own decision, if you give him that…maybe just maybe…he'll come back willingly…"

Is Axel, my friend?

Roxas looked at Axel from over his book, as the red-haired man was arm-wrestling Xigbar with a smirk on his face when he noticed he was winning.

He's always been there for me…

Demyx was strumming his sitar, sitting next to Roxas and his feet were inclined on Roxas's lap; not that Roxas mind, he was used to Demyx and his weird way of putting his feet up. Roxas laid his book on top of Demyx's legs as he continued reading.

Is Demyx, my friend?

Roxas shifted his eyes to where Demyx was happily playing with his eyes closed.

I guess I could call him that; he's always been like a big brother to me, the same with Axel. Can your friends also be like siblings?

Roxas returned his gaze to the book, shifting under Demyx's legs, to make him more comfortable as he read quietly, his lips pursed into a tight line as he thought about these things.

Is anyone else in the Organization my friend?

"Roxas," Roxas lifted his head to see Saïx walking in with the same expression he was wearing. "I need you to go on a mission," Roxas stood up mechanically, putting the book down and setting Demyx's feet back onto the couch causing Demyx to pout.

"Aw, Saïx! You just made me lose my leg recliner!" Saïx pursed his lips,

"There's more to life than reclining, which is why you now have a mission as well," Demyx gaped at the blue-haired man. "Roxas, you need to go to Twilight Town, it seems like there's a big Heartless over there, and Demyx, you need to head over to Wonderland to do some recon,"

"WHA? But I hate that place!" Demyx whined.

"Too bad, get going the both of you,"
