Kingdom Hearts II: Long Way Home

Chapter 4: That Guy Again...

They went around doing all the jobs to get some money. Equally, they all worked very hard and Max and Roxas were walking to the Station Plaza.

"You tired Rox?" She asked concerned and he smiled at this. They stopped walking and he held her hand. The golden haired kissed her hand and wrapped his arms around her waist.

"What you did, that was really nice of you." He whispered and she smiled at this.

"All I wanted to do is help in any way possible." She placed her hand onto his forehead and ran her fingers through his blonde hair. This made him get chills of pleasure going up and down his spine. He closed his eyes and sighed at this.

"You worked hard, didn't you?" She asked and he leaned closer to her.

"No, if you didn't give that much money, all of us would have been so tired." She leaned her forehead towards him and he kissed her with all his love. Shortly afterwards they pulled away and reached the station.

"Nice work everyone. Added to what we've got already, we now have…" Olette showed everyone a very full pouch. "…Ta-da, 6500 munny!"

"Sweet!" Hayner exclaimed and Olette gave the pouch to Roxas.

"So, let's get the tickets." She said and the brown haired girl and Pence ran off. Roxas stuffed the pouch into his pocket.

"We can't be together forever…" Hayner mumbled. Max gasped and this and they both looked at the brown eyed teen. "…so we'd better make the time we do have something to remember."

"Huh?" Roxas asked and Hayner averted his eyes to the ground. Max her eyebrows at this; something was fishy. Hayner punched Roxas' chest softly and chuckled as he ran off towards Olette and Pence.

"Gotcha." He shouted.

"You're never gonna change, idiot!" Max called out and ran after him with a fist in the air.

Roxas began walking to the group and then everything went. He fell to the ground. Max heard this and turned around.

"Roxas?" She asked and she saw a stick fall onto the ground. 'That same stick….' She thought and she ran down the few steps as quickly as she can.

She fell onto the ground and cut her cheek from a sharp rock. The red haired girl hissed, stood up immediately and ran to Roxas. But then Max stopped when she saw that guy with the hood next to Roxas. The man in black grabbed Roxas shoulder and pulled him up roughly. The golden haired boy glared up at the man and it was as if he whispered something.

"What?" Roxas asked.

"Roxas, three minutes!" Hayner yelled and they turned to him.

"Okay!" Roxas said but then when Max and he turned around to see that mysterious person, he was gone.

Max frowned at this; who a strange guy? But how dare he grab Roxas like that? If she ever saw him next time, she would deal with him personally. Roxas walked up to Max and touched her cheek where her cut was. The red haired girl hissed at this.

"You're bleeding, are you okay?" He asked seriously and she looked at him with a gentle smile.

"Yes, but how about you?"

"No harm done." He smiled and she took his hand.

"Come on, we better get going before Hayner kills us." She giggled and they ran into the Station.

"Five students!" Hayner smirked and showed five fingers.

"Roxas, the money." Pence stated and Roxas gasped when he found his pocket empty.

"Wait…" He patted all the pockets on his clothes. "No!" Max gasped at this and they all turned to him.

"Huh?" Hayner asked and Maximum's eyes widened.

"It's gone!" Roxas said and Max growled.

"That jerk took it." She exclaimed.

"Yeah when I fell, he took it." Roxas agreed and they both turned around.

"Guy?" Hayner questioned.

"He couldn't have gotten…too…far…" Roxas mumbled.

"You guys didn't see him?" Max asked.

"What are you talking about?" Hayner crossed his arms. "There was no guy." Max looked at Roxas who averted his eyes to the ground. Then the bell rang and he jumped.

"But he…" The golden haired teen sighed with defeat. Max placed her hand onto his shoulder reassuringly. He looked up at her and she smiled softly.

"You believe me, don't you?" He asked quietly.

"I saw him with my two eyes…but they didn't see him. Was it our imaginations?"

"I…don't know." Roxas said and Hayner, Olette and Pence walked passed them with disappointment.

Clock Tower…

They all sat down at the Clock Tower eating some sea salt ice cream, but Roxas didn't look happy. Max felt a bit tired so she leaned her head on his shoulder. She too had a long face because she wanted to go to the beach and spend time with Roxas and her friends.

"Are you guys okay?" Olette asked and Max nodded slowly.

"Maximum, I'm so sorry." Roxas said and the said girl pulled away from his shoulder. He looked at her and she shook her head at this.

"You don't have to apologise." She said.

"Cheer up already, lovebirds." Hayner called out and Max couldn't help but smile at this.

"That was definitely weird though." Pence stated and the red haired teen's smile dropped.

"Strange…" Olette mumbled and the trio looked at Roxas.

"Can you feel Sora?" He asked and Maximum's eyes widened. She looked up at him and the wind made her hair dance. She felt like her eyes were brimming with tears but they didn't fall.

"Naminé hurry."

The man who took the pouch pulled his hood off to reveal his long silver hair and the blindfold covering his eyes. He started throwing the pouch in his hand and catching it. The man in with red bandages on his face sat down next to numerous computer screens.

"Is it really that hard to make a beach?" The silver haired teen asked.

"We'd be giving the enemy another entry point." The other person answered.

"And this?" He held out the pouch.

"We could always buy sea salt ice cream." The man in front of the computers laughed. "Objects from that town must be kept out of the real world. You can delete that."
