Axel and Zexion are gone. The Castle opened up to me and they weren't there. They vanished like the rest, like Prince and Ada.

Hiei said about twenty percent of the population is gone. I believe it. Zelda, Jaime, everyone... I'm sorry your friends have left. If there's anything I can do, tell me.

I guess I have work to do.

He was my friend. We said we'd meet again in the next life. I guess...I'll either leave here and join him again one day, or he'll come back. I was a disappointment to him, to Terra, to others too.

Prince called me brother and now he's gone too. He respected me and cared for me. I'll miss him and so will Zelda...but this is for the best.

I guess I'll start on Axel and Zexion's books and notes, figure out what they knew about the Crimson King. Start there and work my way up. There's still the matter of Xemnas to deal with.

You went up there, to the castle? What's it like in there?

I don't know what to think, about everyone gone. Some of it's probably good for World's End...and some of them were people's friends.

I'm going around to make another apartment check, count how many are empty now.

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

Yeah. It's quiet. Xemnas is around here somewhere; I can feel his presence.

Good. See who's here and who's not...

[myownmemory.livejournal.com]

Hn. I'd keep my distance from him.

...It's...its not half, is it? In the dreams, the Crimson King took away half the kids, and...well-

Maybe they were preparing for all of this while we were in New York? It's weird for so many to be gone.

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

I'm not dumb, Riqis. I'm not going to go waltzing back into his vision while I'm stealing information.

That's half of all the kids and people under sixteen take up maybe 5% of the population.

Maybe.

[myownmemory.livejournal.com]

...I'm just saying. Don't make us send out any more search parties.

In the other dream, the ones that went missing weren't all kids.

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

Yeah, right.

And most of those people are still here. Sora's gone, but Yukina, Matt, me... We're still here.

[myownmemory.livejournal.com]

Things can't ever make too much sense around here, can they?

[theman-among.livejournal.com]

It's hard to get a good count, with everyone so scattered in the first place. Hiei might have a pretty good guess though.

I didn't get to introduce myself before. I'm Kuwabara. Roxas, right?

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

We should do a census, see who's still here. Then we'll get a better idea.

Yeah, that's me. I've heard your name before on the network. You're Yuusuke's friend.

[theman-among.livejournal.com]

Makes sense. I didn't know much of anybody, anyway, so I guess I'll leave all of that up to the people who know. The best I can do is count, I guess.

That's right. What a loudmouth, right?

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

New people come in all the time. It's hard to keep up. Only the loud, the troubling, and the ambitious stand out.

Ha, you can say that.

[theman-among.livejournal.com]

That's how it is everywhere, ain't it?

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

Pretty much. How's your head?

[theman-among.livejournal.com]

It's fine. Turns out it was some kind of infection.

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

From that bite?

[im-not-a-rookie.livejournal.com]

Roxas....

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry, Elena. If Axel's gone, then Schuldig is too.

[im-not-a-rookie.livejournal.com]

I know he's gone. And it's okay. It must have been his time.

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

I know. I know it must've been.

[soldier-puppy.livejournal.com]

If you need help with that work, let me know, kid.

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

For now, I want to keep it under wraps. But if something crops up, I'll be showing people.

[soldier-puppy.livejournal.com]

That's fine. Can't say I blame you, really. Just know I'm here for you.

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Zack.

[breaking-bonds.livejournal.com]

That many?

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

I'd say so. Schuldig, Axel, Ada, Prince, Zexion, Mello...

...The Lux is quiet. Michael hasn't made a post and neither has Crawford.

[breaking-bonds.livejournal.com]

I see.

[Voice]

[theeyeoftruth.livejournal.com]

Come.

[Voice]

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

Where?

[Voice]

[theeyeoftruth.livejournal.com]

[Sheikah comfort is go!]

Wherever the wind takes us, to use an old turn of phase.

Re: [Voice]

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

[Sheikah comfort is working]

Right. Let's go.

[alwaysrunsaway.livejournal.com]

Are you okay?

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm okay. It's just...lot of people.

[alwaysrunsaway.livejournal.com]

Did some of your friends leave?

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

Yeah, they did. Quite a few of them.
