Rue, Demyx, Lelie, ???

=======

Rue stared at the Heartless before her. Demyx slumped to the ground, almost unconscious.

"Demyx!" Rue screamed, catching him. 

"You know," Lelie said calmly, "I never thought he'd have the guts to do something like this. Since he's kinda, y'know, a coward."

"Shut up!" Rue shouted. 

Lelie laughed devilishly. "Wow, moving on so fast? I'm hurt, truly."

"I know that," Rue countered. "I know that you're sad and angry. But that's no reason to treat people like this! I thought even you would know that."

Lelie narrowed her eye. "I think you've said enough." She started to walk toward Rue and Demyx.

"S-stay away you monster!" Rue ordered, closing her eyes and holding Demyx tightly. Lelie chuckled. Rue felt shadows cover her and Demyx. Lelie yelled in confusion, but Rue only heard a part of it.

"Are you okay?" a voice asked when the shadows died down.

Rue slowly opened her eyes. "Who...?" 

"Hello," a young girl said, smiling sweetly. She wore a plain white dress and shoes. She had pale skin and blonde hair. "Are you okay?" she asked again softly.

Rue nodded. "I'm fine. But Demyx..." She looked back at the Nobody in her arms. "Can you help him?" 

The girl thought for a moment. "I think you could probably help him more than I can." 

"Oh yeah!" Rue exclaimed. She summoned her staff. "Heal!" she shouted. Demyx's wound started to close, but stopped halfway. "Huh? Why isn't it-?"

"Shh!" the girl suddenly hushed her. 

"What?" Rue whispered. 

The girl just put a finger to her lips. Rue pressed hers together as she felt dread pool in her stomach. 

Within the Corridor of Darkness, footsteps echoed.

"C'mere, little halfling~" Lelie's voice taunted. "I know you're in here." Rue shivered as Lelie's footsteps grew closer. "Come on, Rue. It's judgment time~"

The girl held up her hand, and a bright light emitted from it. Lelie hissed. 

"Come on!" the girl yelled, she and Rue put one of Demyx's arms over their shoulders and moved through a black portal while Lelie rubbed at her blinded amber eyes, muttering curses. 

The threesome tumbled out of the Dark Corridor into a dark room. The girl and Rue were panting. It was hard to carry Demyx because he was almost twice their height.

"Hey...thanks..." Rue gasped. "We'd be screwed if it weren't for you."

"You don't have to thank me," the girl replied, wiping a bit of sweat off her forehead. "I was already heading this way, so it was no problem."

"Fine, well, I'm still saying thank you," Rue said, smiling weakling. "Oh, I never asked you what your name was. Who are you?"

"Well, I'm a witch, and a Nobody," the girl said. "My name is Naminé."
