Day 5: Pranks

Roxas’s seventh wonder... always waiting to be found 🤣

Happy @rokunamiweek! 🥳 For Day 1: Behind the Mask. Loosely inspired by Edgar Allen Poe’s “Masque of the Red Death.” ~1150 words. Canon divergence, mystery, slight horror vibes.

🎭 🥀 💃

Organization XIII had had its best year yet. Roxas and Xion had gathered so many hearts that Kingdom Hearts was nearly complete.

Why not throw a party, then, to celebrate. A masquerade ball at The World That Never Was. All the Organization members plus a whole bunch of Dusks were in attendance in their finest black cloaks and masks, mingling and reveling in a way that belied their heartless state.

Demyx played the sitar for some dancing Dusks, and Luxord was engrossed in a lively game of cards with Lexaeus, Xaldin, and Xigbar at a nearby table. Zexion read poetry excerpts that most everyone save for a few curious Dusks ignored. Vexen concocted colorful neon drinks of questionable flavors that mask-wearing Moogles delivered to guests, and Larxene and Marluxia made snarky comments to each other from the sidelines as Axel showed Xion and a few curious Dusks his favorite moves. Säix sulked in a corner and refused a neon blue drink from a Moogle, and Xemnas watched everything from the balcony above, his mask hiding his face completely.

Roxas, for his part, was also dressed in a black cloak and wore a black mask. He stood a little ways away from the others, tucked into an alcove of the castle surrounded by Dusks congratulating their liege on his progress. This was his first party, and he was overwhelmed by all the sights and sounds and sensations. He wanted to rejoin Axel and Xion soon, but he wasn’t used to so much movement or noise happening at the same time.

In which Naminé adopts Ava's memories and gets brainwashed to side with the Foretellers and attack the Guardians.

RokuNami Week Day 5 - Pranks

Crossover with the Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask

Summary: In a tender memory, a young Roxas and Naminé play a mischievous prank during the annual Carnival of Time.

🎨🎨🎨

In Another Universe

“ROXAS, I DON’T KNOW ABOUT THIS.”

A little girl with blonde hair tied in two braids, wearing a cute white dress with blue sandals, nervously shifted in place. Her blue eyes shone with worry, and yet she couldn’t deny the little thrill of excitement at what her best friend was planning. 

The boy, Roxas, simply grinned at the girl playfully. Wearing a simple outfit of a white jacket and black pants along with black shoes, in his hands he held two masks. 

One of the masks was too terrifying for Naminé to even look at for more than a few seconds. It was shaped like a heart, with four spikes coming from both sides, two spikes coming from the top, and a pair of bulging red eyes. 

The other mask looked more like a Terminan with white hair, what seems to be a cut off blue hat, black eye sockets and markings of red and blue on the cheeks and forehead.     

“C’mon Nami, it’s just a prank for Anju and Kafei. I still need to get back at her for setting those cuccos on me,“ just remembering Anju’s laughter while he ran away from the angry cuccos was enough for Roxas to smile evilly. 

This would teach her to not mess with him, Clock Town’s resident prank master. No one outdid him when it came to pranks.

Naminé crossed her arms, staring at him with a raised eyebrow, “then why are you involving Kafei in this?” 

To her understanding, Kafei hadn’t done anything to have the unfortunate wrath of Roxas’ pranks fall upon him. 

“Because, when the cuccos were chasing after me, all Kafei did was laugh along with Anju. He might as well have been an accomplice.” 

Ready to get the prank started, Roxas thrust the mask of the Terminan person to her. “Luckily, the Happy Mask Salesman let me borrow these masks from him. Once the prank is done, I’ll just give them back to him.” 

Naminé still wasn’t totally sold on pranking Anju and Kafei, today was the Carnival of Time after all, but she also wasn’t going to let Roxas do this by himself. 

They had made a promise to spend every day together, and this was no exception.

.

.

.

Finding Anju and Kafei had been easy. At the start of the Carnival of Time, the four would meet up inside the secret passage of East Clock Town that led to the observatory, where the four would hold secret meetings from time to time. 

There, they hangout until it was time for the carnival to truly begin, and the adults would come around looking for them to spend the night together. 

It was their secret place, even if it was damp and filled with critters. 

At the last minute, however, Naminé told Anju that she and Roxas wouldn’t be showing up at the secret place because their parents were holding them up. Anju and Kafei could meet up if they wanted at the secret place, which both Roxas and Naminé knew the two would do.   

They made sure to get to the secret passage before Anju and Kafei, in order to scare them as the prank required. 

The two had changed into different outfits; Naminé wore a white tunic with black pants, brown boots and tied her hair up in order to stuff it into a blue pointy hat she found in her closet.

Roxas on the other hand, disguised himself with a red cloak and green pants, complete with red wooden shoes and a red straw hat that covered his hair. 

Silently shaking with giggles, the two mischievous children stood in their places and waited for Anju and Kafei to arrive.

.

.

.

“I wonder what emergency Roxas and Naminé’s parents had,” Anju wondered while walking inside the secret place. 

As always, the passage was damp and humid, the smell causing her nose to scrunch up in displeasure. While the scent left much to be desired, this was their secret place and Anju wouldn’t stop coming just because she didn’t like how it smelled. 

“I don’t know but I hope everything’s okay,” Kafei looked a bit worried, always the softer one along with Naminé. Unlike Anju and Roxas, who were more adventurous, Kafei and Naminé tended to hover worriedly over their more extroverted other halves. 

“By the way, doesn’t it feel more… quiet than usual?”

Kafei could feel his heart beginning to pick up, not used to how silent it felt in the secret passage. Since it was only him and Anju, the absence of Roxas and Naminé was keenly felt. 

“Don’t worry so much, since it’s just us here, of course it’ll feel quieter than usual.” 

Anju waved away his concerns, focusing on jumping the platforms in order to cross the water-filled pathway. 

The two turned to the left and walked towards where the staircase awaited, intending to go to the observatory in order to use Professor Shikashi’s giant telescope. 

Looking around as he felt like something had been watching him, Kafei bumped into Anju, who had frozen at the entrance. 

“Huh? Are you okay An–”

While looking around her to see what had frozen her, Kafei’s heart picked up at lightning speed as he took in the situation. 

Sitting down on top of the entrance to the observatory, wearing the most terrifying mask Kafei had ever seen before, had to be some sort of malicious spirit. 

Anju’s courageous attitude was nowhere to be seen as her mouth opened and closed in terror, her hands beginning to shake. For his part, Kafei was clutching Anju’s hand painfully, his face devoid of color and his eyes bulging.

The spirit giggled eerily, like a child, it’s voice high-pitched and grating. 

“You’ve met with a terrible fate, haven’t you?”

That sentence awakened a primal fear in Anju, who couldn’t even find her voice to speak, instead choosing to turn around and drag Kafei away from this place. 

To her horror, another malicious spirit awaited them, where the lit up torch stood. Where once that torch would’ve brought a feeling of safety for lighting the way to the observatory, the fire only added to the creepiness of the new spirit. 

White, blank eyes, red and white markings, and what seemed to be some sort of weapon on it’s back. 

At this point, Kafei and Anju were shaking, they had never felt such fear like this before. They should’ve never gone to the secret place. 

“Let’s play something. Let’s play good guys against bad guys. Are you ready? You’re the bad guy. And when you’re bad, you just run. That’s fine, right?”

Their screams echoed within the night, followed by Anju’s angry screech when Roxas broke character and bursted into laughter at their faces.

Naminé and Kafei spent that day watching Anju chase Roxas all over Clock Town with her shoe in her hand, ready to give him a few whacks for scaring her so badly.         

You’ve met with a terrible fate, haven’t you?

A/N: Another crossover with Zelda! I was actually pretty stuck on what to do with this prompt, the creative juices just weren't flowing 😔. But then I remembered the Happy Mask Salesman and his masks and I knew where I wanted this fic to go! Roxas is indeed a mischievous little bugger, and rest assured that Anju chewed him out for his prank.

There's angry cuccos chasing after you and then there's dressing up with a creepy mask and scaring the daylights out of someone 😭. Kafei had nightmares for months because of this prank, much to Naminé's shame. As always, happy @rokunamiweek of 2025 everyone!
