Kingdom Hearts: From No One to Someone

Tribulations of Water and Twilight

"How do I deal with this." Roxas muttered to himself, making sure that Aqua didn't hear him.

It had been over a minute since Ven had left the room and Aqua still looked distraught. Roxas thought it would be a good idea to stay behind and help his new friend, but there was a small issue with that.

He really didn't know what to say to help her.

He was a Nobody after all, albeit an unusual one. Although unlike most he had learned how to emote on some level, but that was because he was pretty much emotionless when he was born and had to learn threw his interactions with the Organization during his early days. Of course the memories from the false Twilight Town and the merging with Sora also helped developed his emotional state, however he still couldn't really feel them at all.

He would have to have a heart in order truly feel any kind of emotions at all.

But he could put aside his lamentations of lacking a heart for now. His main focus right now is to cheer Aqua up.

It wouldn't do for her to be so crestfallen after fulfilling a lifelong dream.

So he walked over to Aqua without her noticing and tapped her shoulder. She turned to face him and looked a little surprised before she composed herself.

"Roxas what are you doing back here? Master will be displeased if you are still here when he returns."Aqua said sternly.

"I know Aqua, but I couldn't just leave when you looked so down by how Ven and Terra were acting." Roxas said, causing the bluenette to sigh.

"I'm just worried about them." She said. "I haven't seen them act like this since after Ven recovered."

"What did Ven recovered from?" Roxas asked, but regretted it when he saw that it only seemed to have worsened her mood. Whatever happened to have had this kind of effect on her?

"If you wish to know what happened and why it affects me like this Roxas, I will tell you." Aqua said, saying what Roxas was going to say. "If I wasn't going to tell you now, then either Master or Terra tell you this later."

After a few moments of silence Roxas just nodded and Aqua let out a melancholic sigh.

"You know what happened when Ven arrived at the Land of Departure. However what you don't know is that after Ven fell unconscious is that he fell into a coma, similar to what happened to you." Aqua said before blinking. "Now that I think about it, the similarities between you two are starting to get really disturbing."

"Tell me about it." Roxas said while shuddering a bit. "Please don't tell me that he was also out for a month too."

"Thankfully it wasn't that long." Aqua said before continuing. "A full day after he was asleep and after Master Xehanort left, Master tried his best to wake Ven up through every method that he knew without harming him. However after 3 days of trying and no results, he told us to keep an eye on Ven and possibly keep him comfortable incase he passed away during his slumber. We weren't sure what was going to happen to him, but all we could do at that point was hope for the best. After that our days returned to normal, except for after training the three of us had rotating shifts of looking after Ven. We spent days looking after him not really sure if he would wake up at all or not. Those dreadful days of waiting weighed heavily on all of our hearts, but more so on Terra."

"Is it because he blamed himself for what happened to Ven." Roxas said, shocking Aqua before she nodded.

"That is correct. Although it wasn't his fault, Terra blamed himself for what happened to Ven. Believing that if he hadn't pushed him so much, then what happened next would never have happened." She sighed out. "So did you figure it out?"
