“Glad we don’t have to do missions anymore, huh?” Xion was so relieved to be done with Xehanort, with the Organization as a whole, that she could have collapsed in a fit of giggles. Too exhausted by the fighting to actually do that, though, she figured it was a good time to go back to their tried-and-true post-mission ritual. “After this, we’re going to have to find another excuse to earn our icing on the cake.”

Truthfully, the return of her best friends thrilled her beyond words. She could hardly believe that anyone remembered her at all, let alone her name or the fact that they were friends to begin with. She wondered how it was possible; Namine had said that she would be erased completely, and yet when Xion came back, it seemed like the cracks were starting to fill, even for the rest of the true Organization. She chuckled softly at the thought. In retrospect, Xion had mattered enough for the memories to remain, even if they were hidden. She wasn’t a fake, or living off borrowed power and memories anymore. Her heart was her own.

Roxas’ mission for the day was to eliminate Heartless in Twilight Town. It probably wouldn’t be easy, since he was still just getting used to the job, but it was his first time going out by himself! He couldn’t fail now, after all the hard work he put into the Organization so far. He got his heart quota for the day and set out through the dark corridor into town.

He searched all over the area for Heartless, finally reaching Market Street’s commons, when he finally found it... chasing after a citizen?! Something in Roxas told him that he couldn’t let that slide. “Heartless! I’ll take care of it!” Calling his Keyblade to his hands, he dashed toward the enemy.

It followed the citizen into a tunnel, which looked like where Roxas first went for training... in fact, it was probably the same tunnel. “Piece of cake!” He knew his way around pretty well by now, given that it was one of the few places he knew at all. The Heartless managed to corner the person in and was about to try and take his heart, but Roxas managed to stop it. A swift blow to its back, and the dark being evaporated, sending a glowing heart into the air above it.

Xion grinned sheepishly when she realized her mistake. Roxas was right, of course. She pictured him accidentally destroying the ball he was supposed to keep in the air, giggling a bit. That couldn’t have gone well... but she let her Keyblade disappear from her grip and went to pick up a couple of the bats that he’d mentioned.
