[He knows it's time. He can barely breathe, and his body's covered in dark marks beneath his shirt. And he's done nothing more than resign himself to his fate now. Riqis, Namine, Xion, Ven... It's his turn.

Roxas has put himself in his room to wait it out, sitting on his bed in the corner. He's kept watch over the network for a long time and knows that Ven and Xion are back... But what about the rest?]

Are... Are Riqis and Namine back yet? And- And what about the others? Who... [A wet cough.] Who else is sick? Are we missing anyone?

[He feels bad, refusing two of his good friends to see him. But if Riqis can't be there, then he doesn't want Namine to have to sit with him alone. She had done a lot for him. He didn't want her to cry or hurt over this.

[So she tried her best to smile, to force it into her voice, to bury that uncertainty, and in her best she succeeded. It was gentle, and almost every bit as calm as could be when she said,]

...Right. So you'll have to hurry back, okay?

I will, I promise. [A short cough, and he clears his throat better.] I'll see you soon.

Good. We'll be waiting.
