Kingdom Hearts: Struggle for Earth

"Part of my job is to blend in," Nox explained, "less people notice the better."

 

"Good job then." Eden smirked, looking back at Wesely. "Is it a bad idea to ask to ask you to sit with us?"

 

"It's good to see you again," Nox said loudly he got up and hugged Eden. He let go of her and sat next to Wesely and shook his hand.

 

Eden blinked, in confusion, but headed back to her plate. She continued her goat cheese and sausage on bread, feeling nostalgic. "Um... What was that?" she questioned.

 

Wesely laughed, "a convicing cover. Now you."
Nox gave a small chuckle, "the man in the corner is a Darkran spy. Not very good at blending in unless their invisable."
Wesely smiled widely keeping with the cover, "what's the plan then?"

 

Eden wanted to laugh. "Seems more convincing with just the hug." she looked to the rest of her plate, nibbling a few other foods. "So, what're we doing today?"

 

Ellen somewhat understood and drang another gulp of her Orange Juice. "He was actually quite nice, he got along with us well. I do feel sorry for him and kinda miss him. But with you here, its kinda like having him back." she put her fork and knife on her plate. She sighed, she felt content and happy. But now at a lost. "What do we do now?"

 

"We need to find the keyhole, and probaly deal with the spy," Nox explained, "nothing has changed expect I'll be traveling with you."

 

"Fine, fine." Eden twiddled her thumbs, suddenly feeling not very hungry. "Ugh, I got too much." she frowned, looking to Wesely and Nox. "So... Anyone want anything? I'm willing to share... I think that's the kind of person I was."

 

"Eden it's a buffet we can get more if we want more," Wesely said smiling, "calm down and relax a little."

 

"... I just didn't want to waste the food..." Eden sighed, pushing the plate away from her a bit. "So, where do you think it is?"

 

"So, we're in Italy huh....man, hopefully they're not as many placed to look as last time."Sora said. "Actually...there's alot more than you think. Italy's know for a lot of History, culture, artwork...you get the picture."Valerie said. "and then there's the possibility it could be in another country in Europe. Germany, France, England....Heh, that'd be kinda ironic."she chuckled to herself. Riku sighed. "So basically we don't really have a lead on where it could be...."He said.

 

Eden sighed, tracing the designs on the table cloth. She had returned to cupping her left eye again.

Another memory crept up on Riku, but for once it was a memory that was quite recent and felt much more real thenthe other faded ones. From Eden's view, she went over to Wesely to help with the boxes, only to receive a painful tazering in the throat. It cut off, and another memory butted in of Nexas slowly taking out Eden's heart. Every experience felt almost real.

 

Riku winced, both at the memory and how sudden it came to him. He frowned at the memory, getting up from his seat. "You finished Ri?"Valerie asked. Riku said nothing, just walked off. Sora frowned in concern-and as much as he was still hungry, he got out of his seat and followed after Riku.

 

More memories were hitting Riku, hitting far too fast for him to see through clearly.

Eden sighed, bored, though the memory of a rainy dark city started forming in her mind. A little blond boy was laying on the ground, her view coming closer to him. She paused, a bit dazed.

 

Riku winced as more memories rushed him, causing a major headache. "Stop it.."he groaned, hand going to his forehead. "Riku... You okay?"Sora asked, coming over to the silverette. Riku shook his head, trying to soothe his headache.

 

Within Riku's Station of Calling, a small heartless forming within the heart. It was a Shadow, terribly weak, but it crawling around, scratching here and there.

 

Rikus darkness looked at the tiny Heartless, huffing a cloud of smoke at the tiny creature. The memories were affecting it as well, the pain Riku felt causing a moment of weakness for the dark creature. Riku looked over to Sora's concerned face, frowning. "I'll be fine...some of Edens memories are acting up..."he said. "But...Your hearts aren't connected anymore. How are you still getting her memories?"Sora asked. Riku shook his head, not really having an idea for why.

 

Wesely was going on about history of Rome and location after location. He was rambleing and Nox was listening with a half interested look on his face. Both didn't take notice of Eden whinceing as she went through her memories.

 

"Nice? Well, can't expect him to be entirely like me. The keyhole...it must be found. I have no idea where it is, but i think that if there is some form of guardian at the keyhole,wherever it may be, i should be able to destroy it. I have to" Gexln said, his voice trailing away slightly.
